demon godfather

Dominique, Chris and the three people from Pullin's company got into the overturned jeep (it was unexpected that the car was still moving) and drove to the town primary school.The primary school was built in a corner of the town, with high walls surrounding the white school building.When the jeep approached the gate, the gate creaked open with the movement of a figure beside the gate.It seems that they have someone in charge of guarding the gate.Dominique also saw a few people on the roof of the school building leaning on the railing, and occasionally people could be seen flashing by in the classroom.

There is a playground in the elementary school, cars are parked on the plastic track, and a lot of wood is piled up in the middle of the lawn. It seems that something has been burned, and now there is still smoke rising from time to time.

March parked the Jeep on the track and got out.

A man walked out of the school building, wearing a police uniform, and if Dominique read correctly, he was also holding an MP5 submachine gun.

March said "Hi", right to greet the man.The man nodded cautiously.The others got out of the car too, and Dominic was almost pushed off by Raglan.

"This is the sheriff of the town, Duke Robbins." March introduced, "and the current supreme commander."

"Commander?" Chris asked. "Command what?"

"Everyone alive."

"what?"

March ignored their questions, and introduced Dominic and Chris to Sheriff Robbins on his own.The sheriff looked them up and down as if he were a prisoner.

"How did you get in?"

"We are witchers. Using magic, of course." Chris replied bluntly.

Everyone stared at them.Sheriff Robbins sighed: "The demon hunter is the demon hunter. Now you say that you are an alien, and I am willing to believe it."

"what happened?"

"I wanted to ask that question too. I'd have to thank you if you guys could tell me how it happened!"

Dominic and Chris looked at March for help, and March pointed to the school building: "Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

They filed into an office on the ground floor.It appears that Robbins requisitioned this as a temporary headquarters.A map of the town is spread out on what appears to be a teacher's desk.

Robbins bid them sit down.Three Pullin employees took off their gas masks.Dr. Hurt threw the mask on the table and said dejectedly, "From a scientific point of view, this thing is useless."

"It's better than no protection at all," Sheriff Robbins said.

"Where should I start?" He took off his hat and fanned it, "Mr. March?"

March said: "Four days ago, our convoy delivered goods through here, entered through the east tunnel, passed through the town, and left through the west tunnel. After leaving the tunnel, theoretically speaking, we should leave Haitong Town behind. , but not long after, we found that there was another small town in front of us. The buildings in the town were exactly the same as Haitong Town. Although it was a bit strange, it is also possible that the towns here are all the same, so we didn't pay much attention. Going on, then through another tunnel, out of the tunnel, we came to a small town again. At this point even the stupidest of us knew something was wrong. We entered the west tunnel, but the east tunnel Come out, and keep circling in this wretched mountain. And this time it starts to fog up. I've never seen such a big, weird fog. I think, since we can't go forward, we might as well go back. So we turn around and enter Tunnel on the east side. But what the hell, we came out of the tunnel on the west side and came back to town. Tried and tried dozens of times, no success. We tried to contact the company, but neither The mobile phone is still the satellite phone in the car, and none of them work. Dr. Hurt suggested to go to the town to try the landline phone. So I, Raglan and Dr. Hurt went to the town together, and the others stayed where they were.

"When we arrived in the town, we found that the situation here was the same as ours. No matter the phone, mobile phone or the Internet, all of them were out of order. We had no choice but to go back and stay there, waiting for the communication to be restored. But when we returned to the parking position, But the car was missing. We searched along the road and found the two cars near the tunnel on the east side. Their condition was exactly the same as what you saw. The door of the truck compartment was open, and the goods inside were missing. A jeep was overturned on the ground. In addition, there were four bodies on the ground, belonging to four of our colleagues. There were ten people in our group, two researchers, eight security personnel, and now three are alive, four are dead, and three At first, I speculated that the convoy was attacked by others, so that four colleagues died, three were captured, and the goods in the car were also taken by the attackers. But after inspecting the scene, we found that something was wrong There were no traces of fighting at the scene, and all four of the deceased died in a sneak attack from behind. Moreover, Dr. Hurt also said that the three 'missing' people were all from the Detroit laboratory, while the deceased was sent by the Montgomery laboratory. Before departure He heard that the head office felt that the people in the Detroit laboratory were unreliable. So we suspected that the three people might be insiders, and they were the ones who stole the goods."

"You transport the goods from Detroit to Montgomery? It's so far away, why not take the plane instead of land?" Chris asked tentatively.

March shrugged, indicating that he didn't know, he was just following the orders of his superiors.Dr. Hurt said: "This is an instruction from the head office. It seems that 'Lazarus' himself is not willing to fly."

Dominique and Chris both had "Damn it" looks on their faces. "What is Lazarus?! Isn't the Pandora's Box loaded on the car... Pooh, pooh, a virus container?" Dominique shouted.

Dr. Hurt wiped the sweat from his head, "Well, the container is also one of the cargo. The other cargo... No, no, no, it should be said that the passenger is a patient of a clinical trial project in the Detroit laboratory. To protect the patient Considering privacy, his name and identity are kept a secret, we gave him a code name 'Lazarus'."

"Human experiments?!" Dominic yelled louder, "Are you conducting human experiments?!"

"...Mr. Montale, it's a clinical trial that recruits volunteers. The company will sign a voluntary agreement with them. You probably don't know that many people have tried their best to become volunteers, but it's not their turn yet. .”

"So, because the patient didn't want to fly, you took the land route?"

"Yeah. Another thing is very strange. Generally speaking, the same project will not change the laboratory midway, but the head office has ordered the container and Lazarus to be transferred to the Montgomery laboratory, and among the escorts, seven of them are It was sent by the Montgomery Laboratory, and only three people came from the Detroit Laboratory. The above seemed to think that the people in Detroit were unreliable and did not want them to get involved in the delivery of the goods. But Rodriguez, the person in charge of the Lazarus project · Dr. Hill insisted on following, so the company had to compromise and let Detroit send three people, including Dr. Hill. The other two are security guards, not so much to protect the goods, but to protect Hill Doctor's."

"But these three people disappeared together with the goods?"

Dr. Hurt nodded. "That's why I became suspicious. I suspected that they were insiders. Even if they wanted to make trouble, we could subdue them with the superiority of numbers alone, but we didn't expect such strange things to happen on the way, and we foolishly dispersed our forces. It's as if..." He shuddered, "These strange things happened to help them."

"Dr. Hurt, don't be silly." March reprimanded, "Your speculation is groundless. It is also possible that the strange things in the town have nothing to do with the disappearance of the goods. They just happened to be lucky and got this once-in-a-lifetime It's just a chance."

"Who is that Lazarus? Is it possible that Dr. Hill and others collude with him, or are they threatened by him?" Chris asked.

"I don't know either. 'Lazarus' is a confidential project. The people in Detroit may know it well. We don't know it at all. We are just responsible for escorting it. I haven't even seen Lazarus." Hurt replied, "You are Ms Morrison's brother, have you heard of it?"

Chris shook his head.

"That's it!"

"What next? What happened again?"

"Then..." Dr. Hurt said, his face suddenly turned livid, and he looked like he was about to vomit.March succeeded him and said: "We agreed that the development of the matter is beyond our control, so we decided to ask the local police for help. In addition, we must not let our colleagues expose the corpse to the wilderness. In this kind of weather, the corpse will rot soon. , Maybe there will be wild animals coming to eat. So we packed up the corpses and lined them up, planning to go to the town to find the police. The police station probably has equipment for freezing corpses. At this moment..." He He paused, his eyes turned on the faces of Chris and Dominic, "You may think I'm joking or seeing hallucinations after hearing what I'm about to say, but I tell you, it's all true. It's all true .”

Sheriff Robbins, Raglan, and Dr. Hurt nodded in unison, as if to testify for March.

"At this moment, the bodies of those four people suddenly stood up."

He paused, waiting for Dominic and Chris to laugh, or dismissively, but their faces were expressionless, there was even fear in their eyes.

"Your reactions are so strange!" March yelled.

Uh... don't know why I'm not surprised to hear that.Dominique wondered if there was something to be done at this point to make March think our reaction was "normal"?So he shrank back and asked in fear, "Are they alive?!"

Seeing this, Chris also acted terrified.

March seemed satisfied with their reaction, "No, they're dead, that's true."

"Then you say they 'stand up'..."

"They came back to life, no, no, it's not right to say 'live', they are still dead, but they can move. If I have to find a suitable word to describe it, I would say that they have become zombies."
