Human Restart [Whistle]

It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and a whole morning had passed since Xiao Li and Yu Fei left the ecological town.Because of the climate, the speed of darkness was one or two hours faster than usual, but at around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun had already set more than half of the face.And I don't know if it's because of the coming darkness, the zombies walking on the street seem to be more active. After death, they are covered in tatters and their limbs are stiff, but they move as quickly as a living person.

Xiao Li nestled in Yufei's arms and took a nap for a while. Yufei knocked his chin on the top of his head, and gently stroked Xiao Li's hair and ears with his well-articulated and slender fingers. A sensitive guide in your arms.

The previous thrill and fear instantly left them.During the short nap, Xiao Li's mind was empty, he didn't dream of anything, and even the concept of time became blurred.

Until the RV made a "squeak" sound of the brakes, the bearded Green suddenly stopped the car and turned off the engine.Xiao Li, who was leaning in Yufei's arms, jolted a bit and woke up from a peaceful sleep. He rubbed his eyes and looked blank: "Where are we?"

"We've arrived at the bearded man's house." Yu Fei let go of Xiao Li's numb hands, and turned to look out the car window.But what they never expected was that the "home" that the bearded Green spoke of turned out to be a remote motel!

Xiao Li then turned his head, and suddenly recalled that the bearded Green had said that he lost his job before the "doomsday" broke out.It now appears that he lost not only his job, but also his original residence...

The cold wind blows the fallen leaves, the motel looks old and the wallpaper is peeling.Huge LED signs flicker feebly.The surrounding area was eerily quiet, but the fragments of limbs scattered on the ground and the squirts of unknown liquid stains still told the three visitors what had happened here.

After the bearded Green stopped the car, he sat in the driver's seat with a dazed and panicked face, until Yufei, who was sitting in the middle of the RV, became impatient and ordered the Quantum Beast Leopard to push the bearded Green. After recovering, he opened the car door with shaking hands and got off the driver's seat.

The quiet motel is like a sleeping beast.It seems to have suffered great damage, the door and windows are broken, and the curtains are like ghosts, swaying slightly by the wind.

Bearded Green's fear seemed to be turned into stones, stuck in his throat, not up or down, and all the shouts were blocked tightly in his throat.

Thousands of fantasies ran through his head, but in the end he couldn't catch anything.

Obviously living in the world, but the bearded Green felt as if he had fallen into hell, his whole body was cold.

Yu Fei, who was on the side, helped Xiao Li get off the RV. After the bandages and medicines that Yu Fei brought back from the "temporary clinic" were treated and bandaged, the condition of Xiao Li's injured ankle improved a lot, and the redness and swelling subsided. Running a bit more vigorously would still bring him a slight tingling pain, but for Xiao Li, this pain was tolerable, and it was nothing.

"There is no sound or smell." Yufei, as a sentinel, does not need to check the motel, and can clearly understand the surroundings only by hearing and nose, "Living people and zombies... I can't feel any movement, and it is obviously being captured Wasted."

Xiao Li frowned, pulled Yu Fei's sleeve, and signaled him to shut up.The sentry immediately made a "zipper" expression obediently, and closed his mouth tightly.

They watched the bearded Green step by step into a certain room on the first floor of the motel in depression and silence. The invisible big mouth swallowed the figure of the bearded Green in an instant.

The Quantum Beast Leopard climbed up to the roof of the caravan with its head on its head. It yawned lazily, but looked around vigilantly with its golden leopard eyes.

Perhaps because of the relatively remote location, there are not many traces left by the zombies here.

Yu Fei gently lifted Xiao Li's little finger, Xiao Li looked at him inexplicably, and then his entire palm was wrapped by Yu Fei.

"I'm glad I'm alive." The sentinel said to him very seriously, something wonderful happened in his heart.Xiao Li squeezed Yu Fei's hand back thoughtfully.

They waited quietly and patiently outside the motel. About ten minutes later, the bearded Green in the motel burst into a burst of grief-stricken wailing. The sadness finally came out, as if the piano played the heaviest syllable, and after a "boom", countless birds on the trees next to the motel were startled.

Yufei subconsciously stretched his back into a sharp straight line, like the back of a knife.The leopard changes from a prone position to a vigilant standing position.Yu Fei took Xiao Li behind him, and the snow-white butterfly knife appeared silently and twirled between his fingers.If it was a zombie that jumped out of the house, Yu Fei would definitely use the butterfly knife to kill it without hesitation.

But soon, it was the bearded Green who was safe and sound.

In his arms were two corpses.No, to be precise, it was the corpse of a half-skeleton woman and a child—the wife and child of Beard Green.

Xiao Li and Yu Fei looked shocked and serious.

Apparently, the woman's body has long been cold and hard, and the flesh and blood on the back, including the organs, have been eaten away by... perhaps wild animals (but most likely zombies).A large scarlet interior and a dark white skeleton were revealed.And the poor child she held tightly in her arms, his face turned red and purple, apparently died of suffocation.And his delicate hands that were once clung to the tattered clothes on his mother's back because of fear, also lost skin and flesh.

Yufei strode over, wanting to help the bearded Green, but the bearded Green shook his head in grief, stopping Yufei's rare kindness.

"If you really want to help me, then find me a shovel." Bearded Green's eyes were red, I don't know if it was from anger or grief, "Maybe in the storage room There will be tools."

Yufei withdrew his hand and nodded.And Xiao Li spontaneously limped into the motel after Bearded Green finished his first sentence, trying to search for some usable utensils and do something for Bearded Green.

After their figures left, the bearded Green found a relatively flat and clean muddy ground. He slowly bent his knees, took off his coat, wrapped up the broken corpses of his wife and children, and then started with his rough hands. Dig into hard ground.

Tears blurred the eyes little by little, slipped out of the eye sockets, and the vision was clear again.

His wife, who has been with him day and night for more than [-] years, "will never leave him regardless of poverty, wealth, or health or disease", and his small, lovely child... Just yesterday morning, he didn't set off Before Macy's guards, they rested in their arms, resting in their arms.

He still remembers the last voice and smile left by his wife and children.But it is a pity that the last memory is the quarrel and cold war between them because they decided to go to "Macy's Department Store" to guard them.

Beard Green has also thought about divorce with his wife several times, but the imagined separation should not be in this form.

"'The statue of the Happy Prince stands high above the city - on a tall stone pillar...'" The bearded Green whispered his wife and children's favorite story while digging the hard soil, "...'Swallow, Swallow , Little Swallow, said the prince, don’t you want to spend another night with me?’”

"...'I am not going to Egypt. Says the swallow, I am going to the house of death. Death is the brother who sleeps...'"

Gradually, the bearded Green could no longer speak, and his tears dripped down, like pearls with broken strings, wetting the newly dug earth pit, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

He fell into endless annoyance and remorse, and in his mind, he kept imagining how terrified his wife and children would be when they were alone and helpless.Are your children constantly chanting their own names silently, expecting themselves to come like a superhero?

But he didn't show up.

Bearded Green felt like he was dying of grief.Burning with anger, there is no one to blame.Because he took the initiative and asked to go to Macy's as a guard instead of staying with his wife.

He took the tragedy as his own fault.

On the other side, Yufei and Xiaoli found a shovel by the dead body in a room on the first floor.Xiao Li squatted down, frowned and inspected the corpse. As early as when the bearded Green appeared holding the corpses of his wife and daughter, he had doubts.

Why aren't they zombified?

Yu Fei was a little worried that the dead body would suddenly jump up, after all, he had personally witnessed the scene of Rose No. 3 "returning from the dead".So he grabbed the trouser legs of the strange dead body and dragged it a little farther, but it was still convenient for Xiao Li to check.

"Is it because of being eaten too much?" Xiao Li stood up and walked towards another strange dead body that looked perfectly intact, "No, that's not right."

The dead bodies in the house include zombies and ordinary corpses.Now, the strange thing is that a small number of corpses have bite marks on their bodies and their bodies are intact, without any fatal injuries (Xiao Li speculates that these people may be the last survivors, who died after strangling the zombies), but they are died.

After being bitten by a zombie, she didn't "resurrect", but simply died!

It's...as if...some kind of deadly poison took their lives!

The thoughts in Xiao Li's mind were spinning quickly, and various calculation formulas and numbers were churning in his mind.Yu Fei waited for a while, and finally couldn't stand the filth in the motel. He grabbed Xiao Li and the shovel and walked out, "Big Beard has been waiting for us for a long time."

Only then did Xiao Li put his messy thoughts aside.

With the help of the shovel, the bearded Green's digging speed was much faster, and a large circular hole was dug in the ground after 10 minutes.Xiao Li squatted aside and secretly checked the bodies of the bearded wife and children, guessing when they died.

Why did some people die directly instead of being infected after being killed by zombies?Xiao Li couldn't figure out the difference between these corpses and the infected corpses, which made the virus fail to control them and turn them into monsters.

Yufei, on the other hand, was vigilant about the surrounding situation.

The Quantum Beast, Ammie's Marmot, ran away somewhere, and when it came back, its mouth and paws were full of fresh and beautiful bouquets of flowers and lush weeds.Its small claws are sensitive, and it quickly weaves two miniature wreaths, one large and one small.

The mouse pulled the corner of the bearded Green's clothes, and the grief-stricken man lowered his head, but because ordinary people couldn't see the Quantum Beast, he could only see two delicate wreaths floating in the air.

Yu Fei touched the smooth and round head of the squirrel with his index finger, "Zhizhi wants to do something for you."

The Squirrel stood on tiptoe and raised the wreath a little higher.

The bearded Green thanked with a choked voice. He buried his wife and children and the wreath in the newly dug earth pit, then took off the cross necklace around his neck, pressed it on his lips and kissed repeatedly until the temperature on his lips was slightly stained. After picking up the cold cross, he put the cross into the pit, and took off the plain wedding ring on his wife, strung it into a silver chain, and brought it back around his neck.

In a deep, emotional voice, he read the ending of "The Happy Prince" intermittently: "'Bring me the two most precious things in the city,' God said to one of his angels. So the angel took the lead Heart and dead bird brought back to God.'”

"'You have chosen well,' said God, 'for in my heavenly garden the little birds may sing forever, and in my golden castle the Happy Prince may praise me with all his might. '"

In front of them, the blood-red sun gradually descended, stretching the shadows of the three and the two quantum beasts infinitely.

The Swallow is his wife, and the Happy Prince is his child.Now, they are all out of pain and thrown into the arms of God.The bearded Green stood up from the simple grave while thinking this way.His tears stopped, but his eyes were still sad, as if the fire of hope was extinguished by tears and sadness, leaving thick ashes all over the ground.
