Chen Xin heard the meaning in Lu Ze's tone, and after telling Wu Zhuo, the two quickly packed up the radio equipment and backpacks, and ran towards the direction Lu Ze pointed to.

As soon as he turned onto the main street, Wu Zhuo caught a glimpse of a shadow out of the corner of his eye, and rushed towards him sideways with a strong wind.

He dodged subconsciously, and Chen Xin also raised the gun within half a second. At the moment when his index finger was about to pull the trigger, his pupils suddenly narrowed, and he pressed his finger hard—— The shadow passed Wu Zhuo straight, and landed in front of a somewhat dark shop doorway on the left side of the two. The front paws were deeply embedded in the shoulder of a living corpse, and a low growl came out from the throat—it was a head with some The familiar white wolf.

Wu Zhuo broke out in a cold sweat, and exchanged a glance with Chen Xin. Both of them raised their guns, and aimed at the direction of the white wolf cautiously, standing still.

The white wolf seemed to be aware of their movements, and turned around to glance at the two of them.For some reason, Wu Zhuo read some mockery from that gaze.

"...Is this... the one we saw last night?" His voice was a little uncertain.

"It looks like it."

While the two were talking, the white wolf's claws had cleanly pierced through the head of the living corpse. It then backed out from the doorway, took a few steps forward, and looked back at Chen Xin and Wu Zhuo. direction, and flicked his tail.

Wu Zhuo and Chen Xin looked at each other again, and both of them could see some uncertainty in each other's eyes - they stood in place without moving.

After about a minute, the white wolf turned back to look at the two of them, took a few steps in place, seemed a little anxious, and simply walked in the direction of the two of them.

Chen Xin pressed down the muzzle of the gun, aimed the sight at the white wolf's head, and carefully put his index finger on the trigger.

The white wolf seemed to understand his movements, raised his eyes and glanced at him, his front paws paused subtly in mid-air, and turned to Wu Zhuo's direction.

Wu Zhuo only felt that the muscles on his back were tense, but there was a strange intuition pressing him and not letting him move.

One step, two steps, the white wolf walked up to him.Chen Xin kept pressing the muzzle of the gun, and from the corner of Wu Zhuo's eyes, he could see that his index finger had been slowly pressed down.

He slowly raised his left hand by his side, and pressed it down in Chen Xin's direction.Chen Xin was a little surprised, he didn't let go of his fingers, but just raised his eyes and glanced at him.Knowing that his teammates were waiting for his confirmation, Wu Zhuo nodded his chin slightly.

Chen Xin paused for a second, then loosened his index finger a little, but the muzzle of the gun still did not move away.

The white wolf seemed to regard him as nothing, and went straight to Wu Zhuo's feet, curled its tail slightly around his ankles, then let it go, took a few steps forward, and turned back to look at the two of them again.

Wu Zhuo: "...it is... let us follow?"

Chen Xin narrowed his eyes, and slightly raised his head from the front of the scope: "Let's go, follow up and have a look."

Wu Zhuo hesitated: "The captain..."

Chen Xin looked around. In order to take a shortcut, they were now in a narrow alley, with low walls of moderate height on both sides. Most of the tiles on the top of the wall had been broken, and only a little bit of the original blue-gray could be vaguely seen.The white wall was covered with dirt, it was hard to tell if it was blood or something else.Every ten meters or so is a dilapidated shop, some with closed doors, some with only dark door openings exposed, and some with half doors barely hanging, looking precarious.

The back is the direction they came from. It is hard to see how long this alley is going forward. The meeting point that Lu Ze mentioned earlier stands about 500 meters in front of them on the right.

If you want to go there as soon as possible, walking through the alley is the best choice, provided they know the way.

And the white wolf in front of him...

Chen Xin knocked on the communication next to his ear to contact Lu Ze, but he didn't know if he had entered the area of ​​electromagnetic interference. The radio channel was full of interference noise, and he couldn't hear Lu Ze at all.

He turned to Wu Zhuo and shook his head slightly: "It seems that we only have one choice now."

Wu Zhuo understood what he meant, and his eyes sank.

On the other side, Lu Ze dodged a living corpse in front of him, swept his right leg across the corpse's lower body, and locked its throat with his arm when it fell to the ground. At the same time, the dagger in the other hand was cleanly plunged into its celestial cap.

Lifting his feet and kicking the complete corpse aside, his gaze swept across the skylight outside, and he frowned slightly—it has been 10 minutes since he spoke with Chen Xin, based on the time he arrived here , Chen Xin and Wu Zhuo must have encountered some kind of trouble. He tried to turn on the radio communication 5 minutes ago, as expected: Whether it was Chen Xin, Wu Zhuo or Fang Lulian, Zheng Guanqi, the communication channels were all buzzing.And now, in front of him, besides the four fallen living corpses, there were two more people poking their heads in his direction from the entrance of the shopping mall.

He should be on the fifth floor of the previous shopping mall, not too high from the ground, but at some point, the wind outside became bitter.The tumbling clouds in the sky are quickly covering the sky that was already showing some signs of clearing up, and there is a faint moisture in the howling wind.

In the few seconds he was looking out, the sky had already started to rain lightly.

When the fine rain was blown by the wind, the head rolled towards Lu Ze's face and body.He subconsciously took a step back, and the water droplets fell on a corpse he had kicked aside earlier.The originally transparent water droplets condensed on the naked skin of the corpse, and slowly turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye. After shaking for a few times, they slowly stopped moving.

Not long after, the corpse was covered with a layer of white, which looked like a layer of mildew from a distance.

Lu Ze sighed silently, took another step back, and was about to lament that his luck was really bad, when suddenly a slight air flow passed by behind his ears, he subconsciously leaned forward, and when he turned his head The micro-push in the inside was already pointing directly in the direction of the elevator escalator.

——A slender knife was nailed to the wall less than one meter away from him. The tip of the knife was just piercing into the wing of a gray swift, and the handle was still trembling slightly.The poor little thing was struggling desperately, and its dark yellow beak was desperately expanding, but the strange thing was that it didn't make a sound.

Lu Ze's eyes slowly moved away from the swift and landed on the entrance of the elevator escalator.

At some point, a person stood there, wrapped in a light gray burqa, wearing a mask with a strange shape on his face, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.

Lu Ze's eyes narrowed slightly, and the muscles on his shoulders tensed up instinctively: he hadn't let down his vigilance just now, but he didn't realize when this person appeared there at all.And the few living corpses that were wandering there before also disappeared.

"You're very lucky." Because he was wearing a mask, the man's voice sounded a little foggy.

As if he didn't feel Lu Ze's hostility, he walked over calmly, pulled the knife out from the wall and cut off the swift's head at the same time.

Lu Ze stared at him for two seconds, then slowly put down the gun in his hand, showing a grinning smile: "Thank you." Then he stretched out his hand: "Lu Ze."

The man was stunned for half a second, he seemed a little surprised by Lu Ze's reaction, he didn't reach out his hand, and said in a cold voice, "Ghost."

Lu Ze raised his eyebrows, and raised his chin at the swift on the ground: "This thing is also an infected body?"

Ghost tiptoed the swift aside with some disgust: "You don't want to be pecked by it even a little bit of skin." Then he turned and walked upstairs.

Lu Ze didn't care about his attitude, and followed him in two steps: "Are you familiar with this place?"

The man stopped in his tracks, tilted his head slightly and looked at Lu Ze. He could almost imagine the slight frown under his mask: "What does it have to do with you?"

The enthusiasm in Lu Ze's voice didn't diminish in the slightest: "You are a fellow townsman after all. It seems that you have stayed here for a long time, right? Although I am a newcomer, it doesn't mean that there is nothing I can use it for."

Ghost was silent for a second, then stretched out his right hand like lightning, and slammed straight into Lu Ze's waist.

Lu Ze had been prepared for a long time. The moment he raised his hand, he leaned back slightly, avoiding the blow, and at the same time swept his right leg towards Ghost's lower body.

Ghost saw the strength of his movements, and without facing him, he bent over neatly and dodged it. He lightly supported the ground with both hands, and kicked towards Lu Ze's face with his strength.

Lu Ze clasped one of his ankles with his left hand. Unexpectedly, Ghost was waiting for his action. He twisted deftly in mid-air, and when he turned over again, the cold light in his hand had already approached Lu Ze's throat.

Lu Ze secretly said yes in his heart, but his hands were already prepared - he turned his right wrist and bumped into Ghost's palm impartially. After a slight "buzz", a slender handle The small knife has been firmly attached to the inside of Lu Ze's wrist.

Ghost knew that he had been fooled, so he didn't bother him any more. He took a step back and stood at the elevator entrance, looking at Lu Ze silently.

Lu Ze flipped his wrist casually, and the knife came into his hand. He pinched the handle of the knife with his fingertips and turned around, looking at Ghost, and said in a voice that was a little bit embarrassed: "I'm too impatient."

Ghost: "..."

"If you want to try my skills, we can do a few more tricks, but let me put away such a sharp thing for you for the time being. After all... I prefer my life." He ignored the other party's reaction and took the The pocket knife slipped into the pocket.

Ghost: "..."

Pausing on the spot for a second, he turned around and strode towards the emergency exit.

"Hey wait for me." Lu Ze took two steps forward and caught up with him.

Ghost never said a word. After walking into the stairwell of the emergency exit, he dexterously climbed out from the window hole between the fourth and fifth floors. He followed the escape stairs on the outside of the building and quickly reached a position 3 or 4 meters above the ground. .The escape ladder was broken at this point, leaving only a rusty iron railing hanging in the air.Using one hand on the railing, he swayed steadily to the ground.

It looks like this should be a fire lane behind the original mall.After landing, he stopped on the spot for a second, then looked up in Lu Ze's direction.

At this time, Lu Ze, who was still some distance away from the ground on the escape ladder: "..."

Although he couldn't see the man's expression clearly through a thick mask, he still felt a provocative gaze.

Sighing in his heart, he jumped down two floors neatly, and landed on the last step.

"Get out of town." Before he could stand still, Ghost's voice came over.

Lu Ze was stunned for half a second, the corner of his eyes turned cold, he straightened up and looked at the person in front of him: "Why?"

Ghost seemed to have expected him to ask this question a long time ago, leaning against the wall behind him with folded arms: "Your mission is impossible to complete."

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes, turned countless thoughts in a flash, and finally said slowly: "You have seen the team members who came here before."

His tone was firm, and Ghost didn't deny it.

Lu Ze took a breath and looked at the eyes behind the mask: "Are they... still alive?"

Ghost was silent for a while, then shook his head: "I don't know."

Lu Ze closed his eyes, and when he looked at Ghost again, his gaze pierced the eyepiece on his face like a knife: "Let's make a deal."

Ghost stood where he was, and the eyes of the two met in the air through their respective masks.

After a second or two, he spoke in a cold voice: "Lu Li, what do you think you can exchange?"
