Chapter 140: The abacus clanged
A Raptor buggy vehicle driving in an uninhabited alley.
Lixiu sat in the back seat of the car, with traces of pear blossoms and rain on her face, as if she was still in the sadness just now and couldn't get out.
In fact, what she had in mind was the bugging device.
The white-robed nun has finished her trip tonight, and she must find an opportunity to steal the bug before returning to church.
If she is discovered, it will be difficult for her to get out of it.
And in the room, Zheng Xun clearly explained that she should find a way to leave the church as soon as possible, and it would inevitably cause trouble if she stayed for a long time.
As for the truth behind the miracles of the Church, he said that it would soon come out.
Lixiu didn't understand it, but Zheng Xun's promise made her feel reassured.
Come to think of this.
Lixiu began to sob, her delicate and lovely face, red and fluttering, with a pair of watery hazy teary eyes, and a pitiful appearance, which made people feel pity.
Seeing this, the white-robed nun had no choice but to gather some and protect her.
Li Xiu leaned on the arms of the white-robed nun, secretly frightened, and could clearly feel the other party's heart, big enough to contain all things.
As if greatly comforted, she gently wrapped her hands around the white-robed nun, her delicate fingertips slid into the folds of the white robe, trying to clip out the eavesdropping device that had been put in before.
Suddenly, she found that the bugging device was missing.
Where did the bugging go?
Oops, it's not going to fall out, is it?
Or was it discovered by the other party?
Lixiu was nervous and wanted to grope for a while, but was held by the white-robed nun on the shoulder, pulling some distance.
The white-robed nun looked at her with a peaceful expression and whispered comfortingly, "I have suffered. ”
Lixiu's eyes were hazy with tears in her eyes, and she shook her head.
Seriously, it's not bitter at all, it's just a little painful.
In addition, she enjoyed it quite a bit, thanks to Zheng Xun covering her mouth, otherwise she would have to worry about screaming out loud.
Although she thought so, the aggrieved expression on her face was very real.
"I don't have the face to stay in the church anymore, I'm sorry, I failed the church to cultivate me."
Xu Zhenshan glanced at her quietly and heard that she wanted to run away.
But this is also normal, even the bones of the body have been lost, or after joining the church, there is almost no possibility of further progress, it is better to quit as soon as possible.
She didn't want to get involved in these pointless struggles, and having a safe place to live in the apocalypse was more important than anything else.
As long as you can give a stutter, don't convince one sculpture, even if you serve ten, it will be earned.
The white-robed nun stroked her hair, wiped away her tears, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, you are dedicated to the Lord, and the Lord will not blame you, which shows your loyalty." ”
Lixiu: "??? ”
She froze.
I thought that the white-robed nun would agree with her statement and kick her out of the church.
The resources of the Church are not obtained in a vacuum, and each nun must be carefully chosen.
Once the number of nuns is large, they will soon be empty, and the leader will have to go hungry when he comes.
Therefore, the Church has always shown no mercy to unqualified nuns.
But it is also very difficult for qualified nuns to leave the church.
So, this is the best excuse and time for Lixiu to leave the church.
But the white-robed nun actually took the initiative to stay, which disturbed Lixiu's square inch.
I didn't find the bugging, I couldn't get out, and I always felt like things were starting to get a little out of control.
"But I'm already an unclean person," Lixiu still wanted to defend herself.
The white-robed nun gently gagged her small mouth with her index finger and persuaded, "Rest assured, the Lord will not give up on any of his followers." ”
"Here we are." Joo-hyun slammed on the brakes and stopped at the back door of the church, "Remember the reward you promised." ”
Lixiu glanced out the window, only to realize that she had returned to the church before she knew it.
Seeing the firm eyes of the white-robed nun, she had no intention of letting her go, so she could only follow the white-robed nun to get out of the car.
The white-robed nun came to the back door, picked up the knocker, and knocked rhythmically.
After a while, the back door of the church opened, and several black-robed nuns walked out carrying the supply boxes.
Ju-hyun got out of the car and finished counting, confirming that there were a lot of supplies, and then carried all the boxes into the trunk.
"It's a thrilling one." She closed the trunk casually, "Happy cooperation!" ”
The white-robed nun bowed slightly, watched Ju-hyun get into the car, and drove away off-road with a bird of prey.
In the house, Zheng Xun took off the monitor in his ear and got a lot of news from this conversation.
"Looks like it's been a little rough lately."
Tonight, a lot of answers have surfaced.
In the meantime, there are many more answers waiting to be discovered.
What he didn't expect was that the person the white-robed nun saw would be Speaker Lin of the City Hall Vault.
Although he had only met Speaker Lin once, his unique voice was never wrong.
When he speaks, he is warm and gentle, not in a hurry or slowly, and his official tone is full of taste.
The white-robed nun traveled late at night and came to the abandoned construction site to meet with Speaker Lin in secret, just for one thing.
Ecclesiastical miracles.
The white-robed nun offered to transfer the miracles of the church to an official sanctuary.
In exchange, Speaker Lin allowed church members to preach at the shelter and recruit survivors of the vault girls as nuns.
Zheng Xun thinks that the church's trick is good, and there are indeed many high-quality girls on the side of the shelter, who have the potential to become nuns.
Unlike the girls who wandered in the wild, most of them did not meet the enrollment requirements.
After all, the beautiful ones may have been looted by the surrounding wild survivors before they even reached the door of the church.
The true purpose of the church is probably much more than preaching and preaching.
Now the miracle has narrowed down, and the wild survivors around the Parasitic Church are eyeing it.
Judging by tonight's tracking, the survivors in the wild can't wait to get their hands dirty.
Only by transferring the miracles can the church divert the contradictions, allowing the zombies to reoccupy the surroundings of the church and forcing away the nearby wild survivors.
While it would be a loss of protection to do so, the miracle was weakening day by day, and it was only a matter of time before it got to this point.
It is better to play a final role while the miracle is still there, to lure away these wild survivors and preserve the church itself.
Regarding the proposal of the white-robed nun, Speaker Lin readily agreed.
Regarding Lao Lintou's abacus, Zheng Xun also guessed seven, seven, eight, eight.
The shelter needed such a miracle that it was not a loss for the church to abduct a few girls.
The shelter lacks everything, but there is no shortage of girls.
To this day, there is still a steady stream of survivors fleeing from other places.
The two sides reached a preliminary cooperation intention and agreed on a time limit for the transfer of miracles.
At the same time, the church will send a group of nuns to the sanctuary to preach and recruit new nuns.
"You've reached an agreement to cooperate, but you haven't gotten my consent yet."
At this time, Zheng Xun heard a knock on the door, walked over to open the door, and found Joo Hyun standing outside the door.
Joo-hyun pointed outside and said, "Let's go, the car is downstairs, and the zombies are almost gone." ”
Zheng Xun smiled: "You still remember to come back." ”
Zhu Xuan said disdainfully: "I'm not like some people, I can't see anyone for a few days when I leave." ”
The two of them stepped downstairs.
The sky outside the window was already dark, and there were almost no zombies in the alleyway, and there were only a few stalls of corpse bones and blood on the ground.
Joo-hyun was the first to get into the car and urged, "Get in the car." ”
Zheng Xun opened the passenger door and sat down.
"Where are you going?" Joo-hyun asked, taking out a gun from his inner pocket and handing it to him, "Give it back to you." ”
"Auto repair shop." Zheng Xun took the gun and put it back in the tactical belt and tied it up.
Zhu Hyun looked at him strangely, and asked in disbelief, "What, you are so kind that you are willing to let me go?" ”
Zheng Xun said: "If you want to stay with me for two more days, it doesn't matter. ”
Zhu Xuan hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't, we are not all the way." ”
"Boss Cui promised to help me repair the car in exchange for your freedom, otherwise how could you get out so easily, you are still glad." Zheng Xun said.
Speaking of Choi Jenny, Joo Hyun's face sank significantly.
"There's something I have to ask you, no kidding, be sure to keep that secret for me, I never wanted to deceive her, really."
Zheng Xun waved his hand and said, "It's good that you know these words yourself, you don't need to tell me, you have completed the transaction, I will naturally keep it secret for you." ”
Zhu Xuan nodded slightly, his face softened a little, and even his voice was not as repulsive as before.
"I don't think I asked anything today."
"And your informant was forcibly left in the church and couldn't get out."
"But it doesn't matter, the white-robed nun has forgiven her, which means that the church can continue to accept your informant."
"It's okay, she'll protect herself." Zheng Xun gave Lixiu a pistol to avoid accidents.
"You're not going to go into the church to investigate the case, are you? Now that the scope of the miracle has narrowed, there must be a lot of trouble in the church. Joo-hyun asked.
She remembered that the so-called informant seemed to be the policewoman who followed Zheng Xun at the beginning, but she had changed her outfit and it was too dark, so she didn't remember it for a while.
Zheng Xun changed the topic and said: "The scope of miracles has narrowed, and the trouble is not only the church, such as Boss Cui's car repair shop. ”
Zhu Xuan's eyebrows sank, and he didn't say anything more, and drove straight to the garage.
The depot was full of busy figures, and workers worked overtime around the clock to build fences.
The fortifications are progressing very quickly, and the gates, which were open last time, have been erected this time.
Joo Hyun poked her head out and greeted the familiar worker.
"Uncle Li, I'm still busy so late, please open the door for me and find Boss Cui."
"Oh, it's Joo-hyun back, come in." Uncle Li, a worker, happily opened the gate to welcome her return.
The Raptor SUV drove into the fence and stopped in a clearing, and the two men got out of the car.
Soon.
A shadow came from not far away, it was Cui Jenny.
She walked up to Joo Hyun and looked up and down, making sure that everything was safe and normal before making fun of her.
"Yo, you've had enough of playing outside, are you willing to come back?"
"Told you to go to the police station to steal! was caught by the owner. ”
"Let's see if you dare to take orders in the future."
Zhu Hyun smiled and said, "Why, the sheriff personally sent me back, which means that I have been acquitted." ”
Cui Zhenni said angrily: "Go aside, if it weren't for Sheriff Zheng's good heart and ability, you would still be alive to stand here today." ”
As he spoke, he raised his index finger and poked Zhu Xuan's forehead, then walked up to Zheng Xun and stretched out his right hand.
"Sheriff Zheng, about Zhu Hyun, I'm sorry for you this time."
"If you don't dislike it, we can make friends."
"Well, let's take a look at the car first." Zheng Xun held her hand, soft and strong.
The three of them walked into the auto repair workshop together and came to the No. 1 maintenance station.
The military Humvee is erected at the station, and two maintenance workers are working on welding modifications.
"Thanks to the materials you shipped back last time, the completion of the modification should be about 80 percent," Cui said. ”
Zheng Xun nodded, it can be modified to eighty percent of the last drawing plan, which is already quite a good level, after all, some of the replacement materials are used.
"How long does it take to fix it?"
Cui Zhenni estimated it and replied, "About a week." ”
"Then you'll have to hurry up a bit." Zheng Xun reminded.
Depending on the duration of the deal between the sanctuary and the church, it was less than a week.
At that time, the miracle will be transferred, and the zombies will reoccupy this area, and Boss Cui may not have the energy to repair the car.
"I'll do it as soon as possible." Jenny Choi looked firm.
Seeing that she looked tired, Zhu Xuan asked with concern: "Have you not rested for a few days, you go and take a rest, I'll come to see the factory." ”
Cui Zhenni is indeed very tired, and she has not slept a good night for several days in a hurry.
Zhu Hyun sent Cui Zhenni away, turned her head to look at Zheng Xun, and asked, "Do you have any plans next?" Have you considered staying at the depot? ”
"Just take care of yourself." Zheng Xun glanced at her, "It's not been peaceful lately. ”
After saying that, he left the depot and decided to return to Kington Manor for the time being to make some preparations in advance.
In Zheng Xun's view, the church's transfer of miracles to the shelter is both self-help and playing with fire.
Play well, it's someone else who burns.
If you don't play well, it's yourself who burns it.
As for the official refuge, Lao Lin Tou made the stupidest decision regardless of what other people thought.
None of these zombies with special abilities are easy to mess with.
Putting it in a shelter is no different from raising a tiger.
And this one is obviously more terrifying than ordinary strange species.
The vault is full of people, but if something goes wrong.
Lu Yunrui's painstaking shelter is about to become a zombie den.
For Zheng Xun, one or two beautiful zombie girls are still acceptable, but if they all become zombies, it will be worth the loss.
Zombies are fun, but you also have to pay attention to the aggravation of corpses, and you need popularity to balance it.
One question worthy of Zheng Xun's attention is how could Speaker Lin suspect that the miracle of the church is a zombie miracle.
At the end of their conversation, Speaker Lin asked the white-robed nun if the miracle of the church was a zombie miracle.
The white-robed nun did not answer, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
"Old Lin Tou knows more than he imagined."
"He wanted to get this strange species, I'm afraid it wasn't entirely for the safety of the shelter."
"No matter what the purpose of the old forest head is, the strange species must not be transported into the shelter."
"This old forest head must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise a good shelter will be given to Huo Huo by him."
Not tonight.
