End of the World

The next day, the morning sun gently caressed the earth, and all things woke up from the darkness.

Qiao Xinghua was preparing to go out, and this time he would lead all the small groups of zombies towards Yuan'an Town.

According to the two captives, there might be foreign survivors visiting in the near future, so we must be vigilant.

Lan Yuxuan and Leng Chuan told Wu Bin that there were more than a dozen fixed cameras set up around the camp, all of which could serve as guard posts.

In the box left by Ye Jianfeng, Wu Bin and his team found two black drones, which were specially used by the military for close-range reconnaissance of the enemy.

The drone is not of conventional style. It is more like a fixed-wing aircraft, with power coming from a propeller at the tail.

When releasing it, either use a catapult or ask a strong man with extraordinary arm strength to throw it out with force.

The landing was a bit rough, there was a small parachute on the drone, which would open when it came to a stop, and someone would need to go up and catch it.

This drone is a good thing, it is much more professional than the civilian ones. Ordinary civilian drones are of no use at this time as they cannot transmit images at too long a distance.

Normally, most ordinary drone images rely on programs developed by the manufacturer and are transmitted to the mobile terminal via the Internet. Otherwise, they can only be recorded and real-time reconnaissance is not possible.

Leng Chuan tinkered with the drone for a day and gained a preliminary understanding of its working principles. It was not difficult because Ye Jianfeng had asked Ding Zhiwen to set it up before departure, so it could be used right away.

So when Qiao Xinghua went out, Wu Bin asked Leng Chuan to follow him and let the drone fly over the town from the air, which might yield some results.

The manual states that in offline mode, the reconnaissance distance of this military drone is only five kilometers and its hovering time is approximately two hours.

As soon as Qiao Xinghua and Jiang Hong left, Chen Guangjun and the Su brothers left the camp and returned to Jiahua Supermarket again.

After the two brothers got in the car, they had something to say, but they seemed to be hesitant.

"Qiqi!" He Yuxin called softly. Standing next to her was Meng Zihan.

She gave Wu Bin some suggestions yesterday. In the morning, He Yuxin came over and said that they should be responsible for the coordination together, and most of the housework should be handed over to Meng Qi and Yan Nuoling.

The opinions of the two were not sought before, and He Yuxin had to consult them before making the final decision.

"Sister Yuxin! Sister Zihan!" Meng Qi ran over happily with a wrench in her hand.

"Well, is everything going well?" He Yuxin nodded slightly.

Meng Zihan also greeted Meng Qi.

"It went smoothly! It's not that difficult actually, it just gets my hands dirty!" Meng Qi said. She has made rapid progress in learning from Zhao Bofeng these days, mainly because she dares to get started.

Zhao Bofeng took good care of her and didn't assign her any complicated or heavy work. He just let Meng Qi help out.

"What's the matter with you two sisters coming here?" Meng Qi knew it was impossible for them to chat with her at this time.

He Yuxin and Meng Zihan looked at each other and said, "It's about job transfer. We want you and Yan Nuoling to work with us!"

"Wu Bin will have a meeting with Uncle Zhao later. We mainly want your opinion!"

"Why so sudden?" Meng Qi knew that the two women were in charge of housekeeping and they must have other arrangements, so she asked her to take over part of the work.

To be honest, Meng Qi felt touched at this moment. She had only been in the team for a short time, and there were many people with more seniority than her. It was an absolute trust that they gave her the important task.

"I accept the arrangement and thank you sisters for your trust!" Meng Qi said sincerely from the bottom of her heart.

The two nodded. Meng Qi had a good brain and she should have guessed something. It was mainly because of her good character that they dared to transfer the job to her.

"Thank you for your hard work in the future. If you don't understand something, just ask us!" Meng Zihan said.

The two girls went to find Yan Nuoling again. She was looking after Dafeng. The two of them were alone and didn't know what to say to each other for a while. The atmosphere was very awkward.

Dafeng is usually very talkative when he is with Qiao Xinghua, and can talk about anything, but he becomes mute when facing Yan Nuoling.

He Yuxin and Meng Zihan saw this and found it hilarious. Even to He Yuxin, Dafeng could still say a few words, but now, he could only pretend to sleep in bed. The problem was that his disguise was not good enough.

The two women waved to Yan Nuoling outside, and she came out.

To be honest, Meng Zihan and Yan Nuoling are not very familiar with each other. Wu Bin designated her, perhaps because he was nepotistic. If she was with Dafeng, it would not have any impact.

Yan Nuoling spends more time with Wu Bin and the other three. From what He Yuxin knows about her, she probably doesn't like this kind of bookkeeping work.

Sure enough, after the two explained their intention, Yan Nuoling refused without even thinking about it. She said that housework was too complicated and she felt that fighting was simpler, so she could just be included in the combat team.

Although she could gain a higher status in the team after intervening in internal affairs, she felt that it was not necessary, at least when Wu Bin was the leader.

Everyone has their own aspirations. He Yuxin will not force anything. She has to consider other candidates. Otherwise, if Meng Qi is left alone, regardless of the restrictions, the cumbersome items will drive her crazy.

Asking one person to deal with various material distribution issues can be exhausting.

There are not many candidates left. Ling Xueyao has not fully recovered from Zhong Yi's incident. Another candidate is Wen Anyuan, but Meng Zihan thinks she is not qualified for the job.

The two girls went back and told Wu Bin about it. Wu Bin was silent for a moment, then asked the two girls, how about letting An Wenwen take on the role concurrently?

An Wenwen usually takes care of the children and has a lot of free time, so she asked Wu Bin several times to arrange some work for her.

If An Wenwen and Meng Qi were to cooperate, Meng Qi might be a little tired.

The two girls had no objections. Having been with Sister An for so long, they trusted her very much.

Jiahua Supermarket.

Chen Guangjun and the Su brothers got out of the car. The reason they returned was that they had the idea of ​​occupying the supermarket and secondly, the three people who escaped yesterday might still be nearby.

"You two should find a place to hide and pay attention to your surroundings!"

"Okay!" Su Yun nodded, and the three of them immediately entered the supermarket.

Su Yun and Su Yuan hid somewhere in the supermarket, while Chen Guangjun went upstairs alone to evict the residents who were still inside.

Some zombies had been trapped in the building from the beginning and had never seen the outside world. Their bodies became thinner and thinner, and they were basically just moving skeletons.

As Chen Guangjun opened the door, he knocked down a zombie. It had no clothes on its lower body and only a moldy T-shirt on its upper body. Its pants had fallen off, probably because it had lost weight.

It is estimated that we will often see naked skeletons in the future. Chen Guangjun smashed its head with the stick in his hand, ending its tragic life.

The house was filled with the stench of decay and mildew, and the mask was not enough to keep out the smell.

Fang Xiaoyun said that a large number of harmful bacteria may breed in this environment, so you should never touch moldy things.

Chen Guangjun opened the window for ventilation and went to the next house.

In another room, there was a corpse hanging from the ceiling. The corpse had already turned to bones. The reason it was still hanging was because the skin on the surface was dry and it was barely connected as a whole. It would definitely break if touched.

Below the corpse there were large pieces of black dried blood, as well as many broken maggot eggs and dead flies, which were the products of the corpse's decay.

The corpse water and blood dried up on the ground, and the smell was suffocating. The fountain of life that once flowed in the human body has now become like this, which is really sad to see.

This person committed suicide. Chen Guangjun couldn't help feeling complicated. This indirectly confirmed that when the army cleared the town, they didn't go into the houses to rescue for some reason.

The survivors were trapped in their homes because of the zombies outside the door, and eventually ended their lives in despair.

At the next house, Chen Guangjun saw another person who had committed suicide, his body had already decayed and fallen to the ground.

She looked like a young woman, wearing a white house dress, which of course had now been stained brown by the corpse fluid.

Chen Guangjun walked around the body and found a diary on the table next to it, which was covered with a thin layer of dust.

Chen Guangjun opened the diary and saw beautiful handwriting recording the last moments of the woman's life. The last date was August 1st last year, which means she struggled for a month after the disaster.

The last chapter is the woman’s last words. Her handwriting is not as neat as before, but has become a little sloppy. Despair and collapse are revealed between the lines.

The front of the diary recorded the military actions and the situation of the town at that time. Chen Guangjun put it away and studied it.

With his hands clasped together and a word of silence paid tribute to the corpse, Chen Guangjun left the room.

"Brother Jun, Brother Jun!" Just as he walked out of the house and closed the door, Su Yun's urgent voice came from the intercom on his waist, as if it was extremely urgent.

"I understand. You guys hide well. They shouldn't dare to enter the supermarket!" Chen Guangjun replied immediately. He had expected this.

But Su Yun's more urgent voice came: "Oh no, they are going to set fire to the supermarket!"

Upon hearing the sound, Chen Guangjun immediately rushed into the house and ran to the front balcony.

He violently used the butt of his gun to smash open the lock of the security window on the balcony's anti-theft net, then leaned half of his body out to look down.

There were seven or eight figures walking on the street below. Chen Guangjun watched two people throwing gasoline bottles at the supermarket and their vehicle.

The car was instantly engulfed in flames, with billowing black smoke rising.

Chen Guangjun was furious and obviously wanted to kill the three people.

He didn't want to indulge the other party, so he took out two grenades from his waist.

"Click!"

He pulled the ring to release the safety, and with a crisp "ding" sound, Chen Guangjun seemed to hesitate for a moment before dropping the grenade.

The grenade performed a flip-over free fall in the air, and the people below had no idea that two huge treasures were about to fall on their heads.

"Boom!"

The two grenades exploded almost at the same time, just at half a person's height. Only Chen Guangjun or Chen Haitao in the convoy could accurately grasp the explosion time of the grenades. Others are not allowed to imitate them.

This is a high-explosive fragmentation grenade. It has limited damage to building shelters but is lethal to personnel. The air-burst grenade fragments can almost completely tear through the surrounding space within a few meters.

None of the people who were exposed on the ground were spared. They were all hit in the torso by shrapnel and fell to the ground.

Those who were close to the scene had their skulls shot through by shrapnel, not even qualified to be zombies. They fell face up to the ground, and the last thing they saw was a sneer on the face of a man upstairs, as if he had been waiting for them.
