Chapter 222: The One Surnamed Gao
For the next time, everyone sat back in their original positions and remained speechless.
During this period, I got up and looked around at the shelf where the kitchen knives were placed, but unfortunately I couldn't remember whether that dagger existed before. I found nothing and could only return to its position in frustration.
No one is sleeping anymore, and probably no one dares to sleep.
Lili no longer wanted to put Xuanxuan on the ground, and kept holding her tightly in her arms and sitting closely with Taozi and Han Xue.
This is very gratifying, at least the few of us who have been together do not doubt each other.
At least a few more hours passed in such a relatively silent situation, except for the occasional roar of zombies passing by outside and the shrill screams of people hiding somewhere downstairs or upstairs who were bitten by zombies.
The people from team d still didn't come in. It was obvious that everyone had already believed what Han Xue said unconsciously just now, and no one expected the people from team d to come in anymore.
After a while, Chen Jiaojiao, who was sitting opposite me, suddenly cleared her throat and asked, "Are we going to stay like this?"
"Yes, I have been sitting like this for several hours. Is it time to go out or something? I can at least give you an explanation." Zhang Ting also frowned and spoke.
I turned back and glanced outside through the shelf: "Wait a little longer until the zombies downstairs have almost dispersed."
"It's been so long, it's time to break up." Chen Jiaojiao said.
Without answering her words, I took Xuanxuan from Lili's hand and held her in my arms. After teasing her in a low voice for a few times, I said, "It's so safe hiding here. Why are you so anxious to leave?"
Xiao Rong, who was sitting next to me, was stunned. Even Sister Hua, who was leaning on the shelf, suddenly raised her head and looked at the two of them strangely after hearing this.
Chen Jiaojiao's face paused and she said, "I just feel that we have spent a lot of effort to escape on our own before, but now we have stayed here for so long. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"
"Isn't it time for someone to rest? Chen Yang is sick, so he's just following him. There's so much nonsense." Han Xue seemed a little upset, and immediately choked up after hearing her words.
Lili patted her: "What's the matter with you? Have you eaten gunpowder? Don't you want to talk properly?"
Han Xue pouted and didn't answer. She glanced at Lili and then turned to talk to Taozi in a low voice.
He stood up from the ground, patted his clothes and said to the others: "We are all waiting here. Han Xue will go down with me to take a look, and bring a knife."
"Huh?" Han Xue obviously didn't expect that I would let her follow her, so she pointed at herself and asked blankly: "Me?"
"Yeah." I bent down and picked up the knife from the ground. I greeted Sister Hua and locked the door.
When passing by the woman, I paused, looked around, found two towels and put them on her face.
Han Xue was a little timid, but after being so cruel to others just now, she was too embarrassed to be timid now, so she just gritted her teeth and followed him.
Han Xue followed me. The two of us took a quick look around the supermarket shelves and everything within sight. After confirming that there was no danger, we finally opened the door and ran out quickly.
Sister Hua and the handsome boy followed behind and locked the door from the inside.
After signaling to them, I waved to Han Xue not to take the elevator, walked around to the green passage in the corner of the mall, and went down the stairwell.
This is because the elevator is located in the center of each floor of the shopping mall. As long as you take it down, you can almost see it from the front, back, left and right. It is like having a flashlight tied to yourself in the dark to tell the walking zombies where you are.
Stairs are mostly built in corners, and most of the exits are covered by doors, making them difficult to find.
Han Xue seemed to be very nervous. She grabbed my clothes tightly, looked back at her, and simply stretched out her hand to hold her hand: "It doesn't matter, we have a big knife! Why are you afraid of those people who can't die?"
Han Xue also grabbed me with her backhand: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'm just a little nervous."
With a chuckle, we turned around and quickly looked around, and we quickly entered the stairwell.
I looked up and down and found the situation upstairs and downstairs. It was very quiet, without any sound.
You really made the right choice to go here.
If the situation breaks out suddenly, everyone will be running around like headless flies, and they will definitely not swarm towards the stairwell.
Even so, the two of us did not dare to be careless at all. We were working in tandem, with me in charge of the front, and Han Xue and the other two slowly moved downstairs.
When passing by the third floor, I vaguely heard the low roar of a zombie inside. The voice was relatively calm, but it also made Han Xue who was following behind become nervous.
After I raised the knife in my hand at her to signal not to be nervous, I paid attention to the situation and continued going down.
The second floor was relatively calm. When I went around and went down to the first floor, I couldn't help but start to get nervous. This time it was no joke...
I hope the zombies can all be dispersed...
As she got closer and closer to the stairs on the first floor, Han Xue asked in a low voice: "What should I do later?"
I turned my head and replied in a low voice: "If you can kill me, then kill me. If you can't kill me, then run away. It's best if there are no zombies."
..."Professor Chen, this is quite rhyming." After Han Xue made a joke to relieve the tension between us two, I raised the knife in front of me, turned my body slightly, and slowly pushed open the first floor.
stair door.
The first floor was surprisingly empty. There was not a single walking corpse in sight. There were only pools of dark red and smelly blood on the ground, which were reminders of the horrific things that had happened here not long ago.
Not daring to let down our guard, we both stepped cautiously into the lobby on the first floor.
The original food stalls were now scattered everywhere. In one of the fried stalls, a pot of hot oil was poured on a corpse on the ground. It was full of blisters and scalded rotten meat that I and I could see.
Han Xue had goosebumps all over her body.
When we passed by him, the body of the corpse on the ground moved slightly...
Han Xue was horrified and quickly took several steps back. Looking at the zombie covered in blisters and rotten flesh, I subconsciously wanted to step back, but after noticing Han Xue's actions, I simply gritted my teeth and charged forward with the knife in hand.
The pot of oil had almost cooked him, and when he got up from the ground and scratched the table legs aside, a large piece of skin was rubbed off.
I was so disgusted by this scene that I felt sick to my stomach. I covered my mouth and turned my face away. After taking two deep breaths, I made up my mind and slashed at the head of the zombie.
With almost no effort, his head split into two pieces like a crispy watermelon.
"Let's go, hurry up." The moment the walking corpse fell to the ground, Han Xue immediately stepped forward quickly, grabbed me and pulled me forward, and walked away sullenly, as if she didn't want to stay here for a minute longer.
"Wait a minute." I grabbed her and pointed in the direction of the door: "Look."
"What?" Han Xue looked in the direction I pointed, and her expression suddenly changed: "How could this happen?!"
I saw that one of the main doors was wide open at the moment, and several men in black were standing outside the door with guns in hand. They started looking at Han Xue and me so quietly without knowing when.
Their uniforms were different from those worn by Suotian. They were pure black uniforms. They were holding guns and aiming at Han Xue and me. The group of people were almost motionless.
Compared to how nervous I was about the walking zombies just now, I was even more nervous than Han Xue when facing those black and cold guns.
I stood there in a daze for a long time, my mind was racing but I didn't know what to say to start, so I could only stand there.
Until I heard a low roar of zombies from somewhere not far behind me. When I clenched my knife and was about to look back, two of the men in black turned around and seemed to be aiming their guns at the roaring corpse.
The walking corpse.
Then there was a flash of fire, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground came from behind. I turned around and looked... The zombie that was approaching us from a distance was now lying straight on the ground.
He turned back and looked at the people in front of the door. Their guns should be equipped with silencers or something like that.
As long as she didn't face the walking corpses, Han Xue had an indescribable bravery in her body. She probably didn't say anything to me at this time, so she just opened her mouth and asked the people in front of the door: "Hey, who are you?"
The people in front of the door did not answer her words.
"Hey, I have a question for you. This door is open, can we go out?"
Still no one answered her.
Han Xue was a little unhappy: "Can there be a whisper? Can we go out? If no one says anything, we will take it as acquiescence... We are going out."
As he said that, he dragged me really close to the door.
"Don't move!" Someone finally responded to Han Xue's words.
"It would be better if you answered us earlier." It was almost expected that we were not allowed to go out, and Han Xue didn't show any particular surprise.
The few people paused for a while, and one of them said something into the intercom on his chest, and then within half a minute, a familiar figure appeared in front of the door.
Captain Gao of Team B......
Han Xue and I were both stunned. We looked at each other and thought to ourselves, this is bad!
Last time I looked at Suotian and the others, they seemed to be having a very difficult time getting along with the people in Group B.
After Captain Gao saw me and Han Xue, he raised his eyebrows and chuckled unexpectedly: "You are really found everywhere, Mr. Chen."
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that the person with the surname Chen he mentioned was referring to me: "Do you know me?"
"Yes." He nodded, covered his chin with one hand, and looked at both of us thoughtfully: "Suotian's wife has heard about it for a long time."
"Since we all know each other, it's no big deal. Let's go out. It's really dangerous if there are zombies here." Since Gao is so kind, whether he's pretending or sincere, he's a real person.
