sunset escape

Chapter 22 Diversion

In the end, the two abandoned the car.

Most of the vehicles they could find nearby were more severely damaged than this one. As for the undamaged ones, there were zombies inside.

Driving the air leaking car, he chose along the road for a long time, and finally He Chen couldn't help it, and stopped the car.

"No matter how reluctant you are, you have to change it." After saying this, he turned off the engine and got out of the car, heading straight to a jeep on the side of the road.

Xiang Jiayun lingered in her car for a long time, but still gritted her teeth and followed.Now this car is not only leaking air, but also almost out of oil, so it has to be abandoned.

As soon as they approached, the zombies inside the jeep started to move.The middle-aged man in the main driver jumped up and slammed into the glass, but was stopped by the seat belt and could only be trapped in place.

Before Xiang Jiajun had time to discuss with He Chen, he saw that he tried to pull the car door.

Fortunately, the door was unlocked, He Chen put his hand on it, and it opened with a pull.

He directly opened the car door completely, swung his right hand that had been prepared all the time, and the zombie who had just bared his teeth was knocked on the head, with a click, and the bones were dislocated.

He Chen dragged the zombie out of the car, and searched the body by the way. Except for a pack of cigarettes and a wallet, there was nothing.

The zombie wasn't completely dead, but just twitching meaninglessly.It seems that it is not for survival, but is dominated by the settings written in the genes, and it cannot fall down as long as it is alive.

Xiang Jiayun looked down at it in a daze, and was suddenly pulled back by He Chen's voice.

"Go and move things."

He responded, ran back to open the trunk, assembled the cargo trolley, piled the supplies from the supermarket on it, and pushed it to the side of Jeep.

He Chen took it and was in charge of loading the goods.The two cooperated and transferred everything in a short while.

Sitting in the car, Xiang Jiayun was still in a daze.

After He Chen checked the condition of the car, he turned his head and saw Xiang Jiayun who was wandering in the sky.

"What's the matter, are you scared stupid by zombies?"

The young man came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's nothing, I just suddenly found it ridiculous."

He Chen drove the car away, looked around the surrounding road conditions, and said, "Suddenly? Then what did you think before, it's fun?"

"No, I just always feel that I won't die." Xiang Jiayun organized his words for a moment, "Because I met you at the beginning, you look like you won't die."

He Chen was amused by this wording.

Doesn't it look easy to die?What gave Xiang Jiayun such an illusion, height and skill?Or the decisiveness in killing and robbing?

He changed the road and headed in a completely different direction.

Xiang Jiayun noticed, "Aren't we going to your house?"

"Changing the road," he replied, "go to my dad's company first."

They were chased and intercepted by zombies, and they were already far away from the previous road before they knew it. Instead, they were closer to the research institute where his father worked. Why not go and see the situation first.

Xiang Jiayun didn't ask much.He had cleaned most of the blood off his body earlier in his car.At this moment, they just rubbed the steel hammer silently, as if they didn't care about their final destination.

It didn't take long for them to arrive near the research institute.

Although it is not in the bustling city center, the surrounding population is equally dense, so the streets are also blocked by countless vehicles.

But as before, there were not a few zombies in sight.

He Chen was more careful this time, trying not to make too much noise to provoke the zombies in the building.

"There is someone in front." Xiang Jiayun who had been silent for a long time suddenly said.

He Chen looked around, and sure enough, he found a person at the entrance of an alley, and it was a rather familiar figure.

Xiang Jiajun speculated: "He is wearing a uniform."

"Yes."

It was the overalls of his father's research institute.

The zombies were wandering back and forth between the two walls. When they turned around, He Chen finally saw the face clearly.It's his dad's colleague, Uncle Ma who has been with their family for many years.

Uncle Ma also saw them, and He Chen even suspected that the other party saw him through the windshield.

But like the little girl before, the other party showed no signs of attack.

City B is too strange.In addition to these strange zombies that are not very aggressive, there are zombies that are the same as City A, just like the group that surrounded them before.

Is it because this is the birthplace of zombies?Did some of them evolve first?

He was distracted staring at Uncle Ma, and was touched by Xiang Jiajun on the arm.

"Look, there are two similar zombies over there."

He Chen looked in the direction of Jiajun's finger, and there were also two walking corpses wandering on the left, equally slow and calm.

"I'll go in later," He Chen decided, "You wait in the car. I haven't come out for more than half an hour, so you don't have to wait for me."

The young man didn't answer right away, but was silent for a while before saying, "I'll go in with you, it's less risky for two people."

"You don't need to take this risk." He Chen thought for a while and added, "It's nothing else, I just said that your safety is also very important, there is no need to take risks just to find my dad."

Xiang Jiajun smiled, and said in a familiar tone from a friend: "Don't worry, I will run away when I encounter danger, and I will never procrastinate."

This tone made He Chen a little dazed.

That night in the sales department, the night made him a little confused about east, west, north and south, so he made an exception and made a brief heart-to-heart with Xiang Jiayun.But as the sun rose again, he had already hidden his emotions, telling himself that they were just temporary companions and should not talk to each other.

But Xiang Jiayun quickly adapted to his position, and regarded himself as his friend, and now he has to follow him to take unnecessary risks.

As a teammate, He Chen has no position to let the opponent take risks.But as a friend, it seems that he should accept this kindness.

This is forcing him to move step by step, how could there be such an unprofessional and extremely innocent person.

He Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the emotions he shouldn't have, "Okay, but you only have to accompany me halfway. It's the same sentence, I didn't wait for half an hour and I ran away immediately."

He looked at the other party, maybe because he described the situation too dangerously, Xiang Jiayun's face was also a little dignified.The blood on the man's forehead was not wiped clean, which made the clean and clear eyes look pitiful.But being pitiful is just his illusion, Xiang Jiayun is not a delicate and weak character.

He Chen immediately looked away, and if he looked further, he might force the other party to stay.

The car just arrived at the entrance of the research institute.

Xiang Jiayun turned to look at the sign at the door, a little surprised, "Is your father doing drug research?"

"Yes," He Chen stopped the car, put on his hiking bag, and took a steel hammer, "Work for a private pharmaceutical company."

Xiang Jiayun didn't ask much, and followed him out of the car.

A few zombies not far away were about to move, but they didn't rush up.He Chen led Xiang Jiajun and quickly ran into the research institute.

The hall behind the door was empty, but there were a lot of blood stains on the ground.

He Chen bypassed the elevator and entered the stairs.He turned around and gave Xiang Jiajun a "five". The young man nodded and followed him quietly.

All the way to the second floor, there were no zombies or corpses on the stairs.But as soon as they arrived between the second and third floors, He Chen caught a glimpse of a dark figure above.

He stopped in his tracks and raised his hand to signal Xiang Jiayun to stop as well.After confirming that the zombies above hadn't noticed them, he turned around and pulled Xiang Jiayun to the blind corner of the wall, and said in a breathy voice, "Let's go down."

Although Xiang Jiayun looked puzzled, he did as he did.

When they returned to the second floor, He Chen hooked Xiang Jiayun's collar to stop him from going down, and led him to the corridor on the second floor.

Relying on the experience of coming to his father's company, he vaguely remembered that there was a utility room at the end of each floor, and he only hoped that the utility room on the second floor was empty.

He Chen pressed his head against the wall, and there were three zombies wandering in the corridor on the second floor, whether they were quiet or warlike, and there were many in the office and laboratory.

He waited patiently for about a minute, and finally waited for the time when the three zombies turned around, and quickly led Xiang Jiayun to the door of the utility room.

The utility room should not be locked, and it will open as soon as the handle is turned.He guarded the young man behind him, and unscrewed the door without any hesitation.

At first, only a gap in the door was opened. Looking through the gap, there was only a pile of sundries inside, and there were no other figures.He simply opened the door completely, and took Xiang Jiayun to hide in.

The door was ajar, He Chen turned his back to the door, and whispered to the young man, "Just wait here, don't go anywhere."

Xiang Jiajun finally understood that if He Chen wanted to stay here, he would just leave him here, and he disapproved: "Where is this? I will accompany you to the fifth floor."

He Chen didn't give him a chance to argue, and directly exited the room, leaving him only a shadow of his clothes.

Xiang Jiayun was a step late, and when he leaned out half of his body, he caught a glimpse of the zombie in the corridor wobbly and turned around.His body moved faster than his consciousness, and he stepped back into the door.

He quickly closed the door, leaning his back against the door panel.

The zombie just now probably didn't see him.

Xiang Jiayun counted silently in her heart for a while, and did not wait for any movement before relaxing her tense body slightly.As soon as he recovered, he took out his phone and turned it on to remember the time.

The quiet environment made him unable to help his thoughts to run wild. If he went to find He Chen again at this time, he might cause trouble for him.

He paced back and forth in the small space of the utility room, tangled in his heart for a long time, picked up his phone and checked, only 5 minutes had passed.

Xiang Jiayun simply sat down on the ground, and in order to divert his attention, he began to wipe his steel hammer.

I turned and wiped the meat smashing hammer twice, and when I looked at my phone again, there were still 15 minutes left.

He had rarely experienced such a difficult half hour, and the waiting of the unknown was more frightening than most things.Unconsciously worried about He Chen's situation, he couldn't help imagining the scene of him being caught and gnawed by zombies in his mind.In the next second, he quickly denied himself. It seemed that He Chen couldn't die, so he must be fine.

With 10 minutes left, he stood up from the ground again, gripped the climbing hammer tightly, and stared at the door.If there are other creatures that come in, he doesn't care about anything and just kills them directly.

If the mutated Mr. He came in, then he...

Xiang Jiayun was stuck on this question, and thought for a while, then suddenly heard a series of sounds, first someone running on the third floor, and then there was movement in the stairwell.While he was in a daze, he saw the door move slightly.

In the next second, a bloody man appeared staggeringly, and fell to the ground as soon as he entered the door.

It took him half a second to recognize each other.

Before he could make a sound, he hurried forward to close the door, then turned around and hugged the fallen person.

"He Chen! What's wrong with you!" Xiang Jiajun couldn't believe that the person whose face was covered with blood was Teacher He. The broken little wound was much more serious.

He tightly covered the bleeding wound with his hands, his voice trembling, "Don't panic, I'll take you out right away."

He Chenyang fell into his arms, his lips opened and closed, but his voice was extremely weak.Xiang Jiayun put his ear to He Chen's mouth, and finally heard clearly——

"Don't go out...don't go out..."
