human journey

Chapter 250
He was right. Jumping from a window sill to a height of more than one meter and grabbing onto the window sill of the previous window is indeed very difficult. Even if a zombie is not afraid of death and has a strong body, it is easy to miss.

But there are many exposed downpipes outside this apartment, and one of them falls straight from near the window of Jack and Tom's house. At first, the zombies haven't found these downpipes painted in the same color as the walls, and they don't know how to climb up from here.

Still jumping directly from the window broke all the residents of the lower floors. After many failed attempts to climb the upper floors, they discovered that the dense connections between the downpipes and the walls could be used to climb easily.

"Ah! Help..."

Jack and Tom heard the screams clearly, and they were still very familiar with the sound. It was the old woman downstairs who had repeatedly complained about the noise they made while playing games. She was just one floor away from them.

"Jack, what's going on, the zombies ran downstairs to the house!"

Trembling with fear, Tom asked, shaking Jack's arm.

Jack didn't answer, he was also flustered, he couldn't figure out why zombies climbed up to more than ten floors so quickly.Afterwards, there were several screams, which were also from the houses of the residents nearby. It seemed that the zombies had mastered the method to climb to the top.

After a while, there were already screams from upstairs, but no zombies rushed into their house.They hid in the room and locked the doors in other places, and the windows in this room were relatively small, even if zombies broke in, they could only enter one by one.This is easier to defend, you can use a broom to smash it out, of course, it is best not to have zombies find them.

After a long time, the roars of the zombies, the screams of the same kind, the sounds of gunfire, and the sounds of fighting all disappeared, and no zombies noticed them.

The two of them looked at each other, and they both realized that their strategy of spraying insect repellent was right, and the idea of ​​masking the smell still came from a certain zombie game.

Tom was tortured by mosquitoes in the summer, so he bought a lot of insect repellent water. The mosquito repellent effect is very good, and the smell can stay on the surface of the object being sprayed for a long time without dissipating.They sprayed insect repellent everywhere in the house and all over themselves. Although the spray was too thick and it was very choking, it was nothing compared to their lives.

The zombie's thinking is simple and direct, it will not be interested in smells other than humans, so when it can't see them, hear any sound, or smell, it won't be interested in entering their house.

The two who escaped from the dead both decided that when the zombie crisis is over, they will stock up on more insect repellent water, so as to save their lives in critical times!
After sweeping the apartment, the zombies will not stay for a moment. They will take their new partners to the next cafeteria for dinner. Jack and Tom will be fine for a while.

As homeboys, they also prepared a lot of food at home, so they didn't have to worry about starving to death for at least four or five days.When they were worried about what to do when they ran out of food in a few days, the public address in the city suddenly rang, which was remotely controlled by people from country M.

An announcement was made on the radio, telling the survivors that zombies are currently only present in N City. The surrounding area of ​​N City has been controlled. A zombie elimination operation will soon be launched. Everyone is asked to hide at home and not go out. Close the doors and windows and don’t make any noise. Spray some pungent smelling substances to mask your own smell.

"Fake squid, they didn't say it earlier, if it weren't for our wit, we would have turned into zombies today!"

Tom snorted softly.

"It's just that if they said it earlier, we don't know how many people would die. Moreover, the dead people have turned into zombies, and the survivors are even more dangerous. This time they will lose their lives!"

Jack echoed softly.

Charlie, who was wandering around and rescued some survivors, didn't have much thought after hearing the broadcast. Anyway, the zombies were no longer a threat to him.

He wandered outside for a long time and found that there were large holes in the doorways of several buildings, which led into the buildings.These buildings have signs of being attacked by a large number of zombies on the outside, but they have not been breached. However, there are bloodstains and body parts everywhere inside the buildings. At first glance, it seems that the zombies have breached through underground passages, which is similar to the way the first floor of the police station was breached. Same.

Charlie didn't know how these weird underground passages were formed. After telling John, he frowned, and didn't say whether he knew the reason.

With doubts, he continued to walk quickly in the city. No matter how big the zombie group was, he was not afraid now. Even if he was flanked by two sides in the street, he could still jump to the buildings on both sides to escape.

Running, Charlie came to the downstairs of Jack's apartment. After looking at the blood stains on the outer wall and the broken windows, he knew that this was another tall building that was broken by zombies climbing out of the windows.

He was about to leave when he suddenly discovered that there was a house a dozen floors up with several windows intact and no traces of an attack.Judging from the way the curtains were drawn, it didn't look like anyone was living there. There might be survivors, so he was ready to jump up and have a look.

For ordinary people, only a few people can climb up to a height of more than ten floors, but it couldn't be easier for Charlie.I saw him sprint for a short distance first, and when he was close to the wall, he jumped and jumped to the window sill on the fourth or fifth floor. , Just a few feet, he came to the intact window.

"Dong dong dong", Charlie knocked on the window a few times, but felt uncomfortable. The curtains were drawn inside. If he mistakenly thought it was a zombie knocking on the window and shot him, it would be dangerous even if he was wearing a bulletproof vest. Immediately shouted.

"Don't shoot, I'm human, and I was sent by the police station to search for survivors."

The window Charlie knocked on was next to the room where Jack and the two were hiding. In the silent room, they heard the knocking sound, and they were shocked. They thought it was the zombies coming back.

Fortunately, after hearing Charlie's words, his heart almost jumped out of his chest before he settled down, accompanied by ecstasy.I had heard that the head of the nearby police station was a powerful Awakened, and he was really powerful. It had not been 24 hours since the zombies appeared, and they were already able to send search and rescue personnel.Moreover, those who can reach the heights of more than ten floors without a sound must be awakened ones.

The bolder Jack cautiously opened the window of the room he was in, and poked his head out to have a look. Sure enough, he saw a young man who was obviously not a zombie standing on the windowsill next door. He was wearing police gear, which made people feel at ease.

Afterwards, Charlie entered the small room, smelled the insect repellent water, and immediately understood why they survived the entire building.Looking at the game figurines placed everywhere in this room, and the appearance of these two people, it is obvious that they are two rich otakus. It should be no problem to bring them back to the police station, so he said.

"Would you like to go to the police station with me? Although there are many people there, they have been attacked by zombies all the time, and the first floor has been breached."

Jack and Tom looked at each other and nodded. They had little fighting ability and had never fired their guns a few times.After knowing that zombies can climb tall buildings, why not stay here and wait for death? No matter how dangerous the police station is, there are still tall people standing there. They just want to hug their thighs tightly.

"Okay, I can only take one person with me at a time, whoever you can go first will come back soon at my speed."

Charlie continued.

To his surprise, the two did not compete for the first, but the tall and thin Jack offered to let Tom go first. Tom wanted to be humble, but felt that he really didn't have the courage to stay alone, so he promised to play in the next game. After he came to buy it, he left with Charlie.

The way they walked was also hardcore. Charlie picked up Tom on his back and jumped down from the window.The timid Tom couldn't bear the stimulation, so he couldn't help but yelled, but he immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately closed his eyes and mouth.

Charlie didn't care either, there were too many screams in this city, and the zombies had no memory, so as long as they weren't attracted by the screams, it would be fine.

It wasn't too strenuous for him to carry Tom, who weighed more than a hundred pounds, but he had to step on the window sill a few times to vent his strength when he descended. With the cooperation of his strong nerve response and body coordination, there was no problem and he landed smoothly. Run to the police station.

Feeling that he had stopped falling, Tom opened his eyes and found that he was riding a motorcycle, and the strong wind blowing on his face forced him to squint his eyes.

He had heard about the Awakened Ones a long time ago and had seen related videos, but none of them were as shocking as what he felt intuitively now.This awakened person is really strong. He can still run so fast even though he is carrying a heavy weight on his back, and he can easily jump over obstacles.

In Tom's envy, they came to the vicinity of the police station. At this time, there were some zombies around the police station, but not many.Charlie, who was familiar with the road, did not lure away the zombies, but rushed straight towards them.

Seeing this, Tom on his back was shocked, but he didn't dare to move or make a sound, for fear of affecting Charlie.On this street, if he is alone, he is a delicacy that zombies can easily get.

Charlie didn't jump until he was two or three meters away from the zombies, because he was rushing so fast that the zombies who were paying attention to the police station hadn't reacted yet. Just turning around, Charlie was flying with Tom on his back. Came directly to the position of the third floor window sill.

Without stopping, he stepped on the window sill. His strong leg strength provided enough upward thrust, and he easily reached the upper window sill. With just a few steps, he and Tom entered the eighth floor. It triggered a burst of cheers from everyone.

After handing Tom over to everyone and briefly explaining the situation, Charlie jumped out of the window to save Jack.Running wildly all the way, with his speed, it can be said that he arrived at the destination in an instant, and the scene in front of him shocked him.

A large hole appeared in the originally intact outer wall of Jack's house, and it was in the small room where Jack was hiding. At this time, the window turned into a large hole two to three meters wide.Judging by the way the hole collapsed inward, it should have been caused by a huge force hitting it in from the outside.
