Chapter 14: Saving Lives. (Ask for a subscription!) Ask for a commuter pass! )

Convenience stores.

Eye-catching discount posters are posted on the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a 24-hour LOGO at the door, and a variety of products are placed on the shelves.

There are no staff in the shop, only three automatic cash registers.

This is an unmanned convenience store.

He Xinjie stood in front of the shelves of potato chips, he had a fresh wound on his forehead, a little blood stain oozing slightly, obvious bruises on his cheeks and left cheek, and a few abrasions on the back of his hand.

At this moment, his muscles tensed, his legs slightly apart, he stood in the most secure position, and then slowly stretched out his palms and picked up a packet of barbecue-flavored potato chips very carefully.

During the whole process, He Xinjie watched and listened to all directions, and was ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

After taking a moment to remove the potato chips from the shelves, he carefully and little by little tore open the package, picked up a piece of potato chips, slowly put it in his mouth, and ate it very carefully and on thin ice.

In the convenience store, there was a crisp chewing sound.

Two days ago, He Xinjie bought something at this convenience store, and when he was about to go back, he was very unlucky and fell down, hit his head on the steel pipe on the shelf, and fell into a coma.

After waking up, he immediately contacted the people in the bureau, but was told that the [Murphy's Law] incident broke out in the entire coastal city!

The higher the compatibility of the "digital ladder", the more exaggerated Murphy's Law will be.

An ordinary person like him, it's just that his luck will become much worse than usual.

As long as you are careful enough, there will be no accidents for the time being.

However, according to the speculation of people in the relevant departments of the bureau, this phenomenon will become more and more serious in the next few days.

Now the bureau has followed the above to request reinforcements, and has informed all ordinary people who are not compatible, whether at home or anywhere else, to stay where they are as much as possible, not to run around, and not to do anything superfluous, so as to minimize accidents.

Therefore, He Xinjie has been staying in this convenience store during this time.

This kind of unmanned convenience store has undergone a century of changes, and the decoration, design, and layout are very mature.

In order to avoid the danger of children playing and playing after entering by mistake, or individual people can't think of it, all the shelves are welded to the ground, even if adult men hold on to it and shake it desperately, they will not fall; All hydropower routes can withstand a certain degree of earthquake and fire tests, and are all laid in locations that cannot be touched under normal circumstances; Even the display of the products ensures that customers will not be injured by any accidental falls.

During this time, he was the only one in the whole shop.

So the most accident he encountered was walking and falling, and the scars on his body now were all from this time.

Just thinking about it, He Xinjie suddenly choked on potato chips, and suddenly broke out into a violent cough: "Cough, cough, cough, cough......"

After a while, he finally coughed up the potato chips that had choked on his trachea, and after taking a breath of relief, he subconsciously turned around and wanted to get water from the shelves behind him.

These figures were tall, short, fat and thin, dressed in a variety of clothes, and judging by the silhouette, there were men and women, and most of them were blonde, red, or brown, with only a few familiar black hair.

The only thing they have in common is that they all have dark skin and pale eyes.

Roar!!!

The zombie group let out a roar and rushed towards He Xinjie in unison.

Under the shade of the sycamore tree, Zhou Zhen stood on the sidewalk, his eyes through the floor-to-ceiling glass, staring closely at the convenience store diagonally opposite.

It's Uncle He!

He was about to walk towards the convenience store, but quickly stopped.

TFZ2342 hasn't started to play a role yet, and now in this state, compatibles below the "sixth tier" will be infected by him, and Uncle He is not even a compatible, just an ordinary person, he can't get close to each other!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen frowned, immediately took out his mobile phone, and was about to call He Xinjie.

He took out his mobile phone and was about to unlock it, but found that on the screen, the time that had been fixed at 15:02 finally moved, and the time jumped directly to 15:07, and 5 minutes passed in the blink of an eye!

Zhou Zhen immediately realized that something was wrong, and suddenly heard a terrible scream.

He looked up suddenly, and found that He Xinjie, who was very normal just now in the convenience store, raised his hands at this moment, covered his throat tightly, revealing an extremely painful expression, and the uniform on his body was quickly stretched open, growing into rectangular, cylindrical, triangular, and irregular bodies......

The environment in the convenience store has also undergone great changes, just now the store with bright windows and neatly furnished, at this moment those shelves that are fixed to the ground and have many protective measures seem to have been hit by a car, staggering, goods scattered all over the ground, I don't know if it is a drink or some other liquid has been burst packaging, and the ground is wet with a layer of colorful water.

The whole shop was in a mess, and it seemed that the people inside had just gone through a very fierce fight.

Zhou Zhen's eyes widened suddenly, this is the plot of the movie that Luo Yuchen said?!

However, he didn't see the zombies!

Moreover, he can only see the beginning and the result, and the 5-minute plot in the middle skips directly!

Even if the TFZ2342 had already taken effect, he wouldn't have had time to save Uncle He just now!

Unless, the "digital rain" is willing to shoot!

All kinds of thoughts quickly flashed through his heart, Zhou Zhen's movements did not delay, and seeing that He Xinjie still had a breath left, he immediately used [Plane Jump] and appeared at the door of the convenience store in an instant.

Bang!

Zhou Zhen didn't have time to open the door, so he directly punched the glass of the convenience store, and then quickly rushed in, grabbed He Xinjie's shoulder, pulled the other party and ran out.

Step, step, step......

Heavy footsteps echoed through the empty streets, and soon, the two ran some distance, leaving the convenience store behind.

Seeing that He Xinjie's state is getting worse and worse, rectangular, cylindrical, triangular and irregular bodies grow on his body...... More and more, Zhou Zhen frowned, he didn't have a "digital domain" for treatment, and there was only one way to save the other party...... Start "Equation Separation Surgery" now!

So, Zhou Zhen took a deep breath and took out the special scalpel.

"Uncle He, I'm Zhou Zhen."

"Now I say, listen!"

"All you have to do is remember what I've said now."

"I'll give you an operation first, and if it works, you'll be saved."

"But if it fails, I'll kill you directly!"

"You don't really die, though, but become a part of my 'number.'"

"Maybe one day, you will have the hope of coming back to life!"

As he spoke, he immediately put He Xinjie's body on the ground, and then tore He Xinjie's uniform open.

At this time, He Xinjie's chest and abdomen were already like mushrooms after the rain, covered with large and small rectangles, cylinders, triangles, and irregulars...... These cubes are still growing and getting bigger, and with their appearance, He Xinjie's vitality is passing rapidly.

Feeling the critical situation of He Xinjie at the moment, Zhou Zhen's expression was extremely solemn.

He doesn't have any equipment now, especially the lack of a high-dimensional acoustic converter, and the possibility of successful surgery is infinitely close to zero!

However, just as he was about to start the operation, He Xinjie suddenly let go of the palm covering his throat, hugged Zhou Zhen, and bit him on the neck!

Rumble!

The next moment, a beam of energy slashed out like a lightsaber, instantly penetrating He Xinjie's entire body.

"Digital Domain", [Fusion Cube]!

He Xinjie's entire body was wiped out, leaving no traces in place, only a handful of ashes, which slowly floated down from mid-air and landed on Zhou Zhen's hair and shoulders.

Zhou Zhen slowly withdrew his hand and stood up expressionlessly.

Uncle He is gone......

It may be this result, as early as expected, he found that he was now not sad at all except in a daze.

After spending two seconds adjusting his state, Zhou Zhen put away the scalpel and continued to walk towards the underground morgue in Dengming District.

Esplanade Academy of Arts.

In a fan-shaped office, Shi Xiaoli stands alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, which are on the fifth floor, overlooking part of the campus, and the neatly manicured embroidered flower beds cut the originally square space into several winding paths.

At the moment, the trail was empty, and there was not half a figure in sight.

The art academy has been closed, and there are very few teachers and students who remain on campus now, and she has been standing here for a while, but she has not seen anyone pass by.

Behind her, ceilings, chandeliers, floors, wallpaper...... As you can see from all the details, this was originally a house with a high taste in Italian style.

But now, the whole room was empty, almost empty except for a desk, a chair, a sleeping bag in the corner.

This office was originally a special office for a lecturer named "Guo Minyan", but due to the case some time ago, which may involve a "digital virus", the Academy of Arts attaches great importance to it, and this lecturer Guo happens to take a long leave of absence, so the leaders of the college deliberately vacated this office close to the female dormitory and handed it over to Shi Xiaoli for use.

It's just that now the whole city is under the threat of [Murphy's Law], and the case of the art school's candid filming suddenly becomes irrelevant.

Of course, because of [Murphy's Law], Shi Xiaoli can only stay in this academy temporarily, and she doesn't dare to go out casually.

Unlike ordinary people, she is a "digital compatible", although the ladder is not high, but the accidents she encounters are much more dangerous than ordinary people!

That's why the office is now empty, and she's cleared out all the potentially dangerous items, whether it's an electric kettle, coffee machine, or other items that add to the quality of life, or decorative furnishings such as sculptures and ornaments.

Looking at the clear sky outside the window as usual, Shi Xiaoli was in a heavy mood, she didn't know where the rescue above had gone, and she didn't know how this situation of the whole city [Murphy's Law] would end, and when she would be able to reunite with her family, especially her children, who were still very young......

While he was thinking, there was a knock on the door behind him.

Knock knock!

Shi Xiaoli came back to her senses in an instant, turned her head suddenly, looked at the door, showed a vigilant look, but said in a calm tone: "The door is not locked, come in!" ”

The door was immediately pushed open, and a beautiful girl who was eye-catching walked in generously.

She looked like she was about eighteen or nineteen years old, her waist-length hair was unadorned, as if a fine silk was draped behind her head, and her facial features were delicate as if they were the work of a brilliant painter, especially a pair of eyes, like broken diamonds sprinkled on black velvet.

The girl wears a very simple pink T-shirt, blue jeans, and a simple outfit, but she does not hide her tall figure, her steps are light, her gestures are full of elegance, and her temperament is bright and free.

Seeing this girl, Shi Xiaoli was stunned.

During this time, she has been investigating the case of the women's dormitory in the art college, and almost every girl has been photographed.

As early as when she was just following up on the case, she noticed a problem.

In the entire girls' dormitory, I can't find a particularly good-looking girl.

But now, the girl in front of her is far more beautiful than ordinary people, and she is really able to reduce the dimensionality of the so-called beauties of amateurs, which is one level higher than all the girls Shi Xiaoli has seen during this time!

This is the art academy, the beautiful girl who should be!

Just when Shi Xiaoli was stunned, the beautiful girl had already walked not far from her and asked, "Hello teacher, is Teacher Guo here?" ”

"Something was stolen in my dormitory, please ask Mr. Guo to go over and take a look."

Hearing this, Shi Xiaoli settled down, and immediately said solemnly: "This classmate, the [Murphy's Law] in the whole city is very serious now. ”

"This kind of trivial matter of losing something, we can't handle it for you for the time being."

"In extraordinary times, lives matter."

"Don't run around, otherwise, it's easy to have an accident!"

Hearing this, this beautiful girl did not mean to calm down and leave the office at all, but smiled, as if spring flowers were blooming, and said in a very serious tone: "This teacher, you are really scary!" ”

"The thing I was stolen was a big red dress."

"It was a coming-of-age gift from my parents and it had a special meaning for me."

"So I want to ask the teacher to go to the dormitory to help me see, who did it?"

"If Teacher Guo is not there, other teachers will be fine."

Speaking of this, the beautiful girl paused, then looked at Shi Xiaoli, revealing a suspicious expression, "This teacher, I don't seem to have seen you before......"

"Are you really a teacher at our school?"
