Dawn After Darkness of Doom

Hearing his question, and looking at the hopeful eyes of the brothers and sisters, Zhao Yang knew that they probably wanted to stay, so he smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is no threshold for entering the safe zone, as long as you stay in the testing zone enough After 12 hours, after confirming that you are not infected with the virus, you can fill in the form and register to enter."

Usually the incubation time of the living dead virus is eight hours. After this time, you can basically be sure that you are not infected. A few more hours is just for safety. This is responsible for the safety of everyone in the safe zone.

"I heard that the safe zone has care for... the disabled. Is this news true?" Speaking these three words from his own mouth still made Zheng Hao feel sad, but his current situation is like this, and no matter how much he escapes, he can't change it. .

Zhao Yang looked down at his legs, and quickly looked away. It would be difficult for any healthy person to accept that he had become like this, so he tried his best to choose his words, "It's true, as long as it is safe to enter People in the district will be given one meal a day. In your case, just submit an application, and if it is confirmed, it will be changed to two meals a day. Of course, if you want to live better, you can also find some easy work to do , there are many things you should be able to do.”

The other party does not have both legs completely disabled. After a period of recovery, he should be able to walk with crutches. It does not mean that he cannot do things at all, but the work points of his income may be less, but it is already very good.

Hearing his words, Zheng Hao was very satisfied. The distribution of food for two meals a day was enough for him to survive. If he could earn more work points, it would also reduce the pressure on his cousin.

"The safety zone is quite comprehensive. There is even free food every day. Will there be people who live on this and don't do things?" There are too many, no wonder he doubts that there will be such rice worms.

"Your question is on point." Zhao Yang sighed, without denying his words, "There are not a few people like this, most of them were lazy before, and would rather sleep in a corner than rely on their own efforts to rent A room."

These people are all confined to one area by the safety zone. Try not to let them affect other people. That place is the last thing ordinary people want to approach. Not only is the atmosphere depressed, but it is also very dirty and chaotic. Some of the women will betray own body in exchange for meager food.

Of course, they are not the only ones who survive in this way. Occasionally, some glamorous women also make a living by it. The difference between them is only the difference in price, and the nature is the same.

Sure enough, where there is light, there is darkness, it's the same everywhere, Fangran felt a little sad after hearing what he said, but they couldn't blame the safety zone for their lack of progress, this was the way of life he chose.

Yang Yue lowered her head a little sadly, she herself was not the same before, her clenched hand was held by someone, she looked up at her cousin's worried gaze, and smiled at him, she had no choice before, she will be fine in the future Life.

Almost all the things that need to be understood are understood clearly. The management here is good, and there are familiar people. It is the best choice for the brothers and sisters to stay here. There is nothing to hesitate.

Although he had already guessed in his heart, when he learned that apart from them, Qi Min and his party did not intend to stay here, Zhao Yang was still a little disappointed. He had a good impression of these people. If they could be in the same safe zone In life, you can definitely become a good friend and partner, but people have their own choices, and he can't force them.

Although they don't plan to live here, it doesn't mean that they don't plan to go in and have a look. The safe area can also go through the formalities of temporary stay. They can stay here for a few days, so that they can get a deeper understanding of the internal situation and relax. Take a tense nerve.

When I drove to the gate, I saw a lot of people waiting in line for registration. I could vaguely see a woman in military uniform sitting behind the desk, and a male soldier with an expressionless face was standing beside him. It should be Prevent the situation that will happen.

As a person with an identity card in the safe zone, Zhao Yang can go directly to undergo a simple inspection and enter, but he still insists on registering with everyone, and his enthusiastic personality really hasn't changed at all.

Because the application for long-term stay has to be filled out by himself, Zheng Hao, despite the inconvenience, stood in the line with the help of Shen Tuo and others. He was sure he felt uncomfortable under the strange gazes from around him, but such a thing Sooner or later he got used to it.

The registration of temporary stay is not so troublesome. If there are many people traveling together, only one leader needs to complete the simple registration, but you need to fill in the specific stay time. The temporary stay cannot exceed one month at most, otherwise you need to fill in again Apply for long-term residence or be expelled from the safe zone.

Because there were a lot of people queuing up, they waited for a long time, and the sky gradually darkened. The safety zone inside the high wall began to light up, and the mood of the people outside became more and more urgent. After all, the registration time ends at eight o'clock. If you don't make it, you have to wait until tomorrow.

Some people started swearing and swearing, even pushing and shoving to jump in line, but they were quickly suppressed by soldiers with guns, and they stayed honest and did not dare to make trouble again.

Fortunately, they were lined up within the time limit, and the nervous brothers and sisters were relieved. The registered female soldier glanced at Zheng Hao's legs that were still wrapped in gauze, and kindly asked someone to bring a stool over.

With the help of Shen Tuo, Zheng Hao, who stood on one leg for a long time, was very grateful, and his impression of the safe zone in his heart improved a lot. What a relief.

After the two brothers and sisters registered, Wang Bin was pushed out again as a team representative. To be honest, he has almost adapted to this role now, and he is not as helpless as he was at the beginning.

When he was filling out the form, the female soldier saw Gu Leiyun standing aside and looked him up and down. He could easily recognize the military feeling on his body, "A soldier? A member of that unit?"

Gu Leiyun didn't quite understand what she meant, so he blinked blankly, turned his head and took Fangran's hand, and moved behind him, but he was much taller than the other party, so how could he hide.

"I'm sorry, his head is a bit..." Fangran patted his hand to comfort him, smiled apologetically at the female soldier, and then tapped his temple with his index finger without saying anything.

The female soldier nodded knowingly, feeling a little regretful in her heart, this person's physique is quite good, he should be a good soldier before, but it's a pity that he has become like this now.

After applying for registration, they can enter the observation area inside the wall to stay, and if there is no sign of infection after 12 hours, they can officially enter the safe area.

Because the vehicles they drive usually carry supplies, they can park together. When the group of them drove in, they still attracted many people's attention. Such a big car must have a lot of supplies. Naturally, some people are envious and greedy. .

Even the soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but look twice. It's not that they haven't seen so many supplies, but it's rare for such a small team with not many people to carry such a large amount of things, which shows that these people should have two brushes.

When I was outside, I couldn’t see it clearly. After entering the door, I realized that there are actually two frontal walls in the safe area. The outer area is used as an observation area for people to stay temporarily, and the inside of the second wall is the real living area.

In order to facilitate the observation of the soldiers distributed here, there is no building in this large area. In the past, it should be a large square. Carefully draw the white parking line.

Because there are so many people, they didn't cook anything today, so they took two compressed biscuits and mineral water to deal with it casually. Their car was eye-catching enough, and they ate it in front of these people So rich is too eye-catching.

After all, among the people around, there are still many ragged clothes who are obviously not doing well. Even the compressed biscuits make their eyes straighten, as if they can't wait to pounce on them.

The other people who had food held their hands cautiously, watching those people vigilantly while eating, fearing that they would be hungry and rush to grab their food.

But some people focused their attention on the candies that were spread out in the palm of their hands. It was a thin boy who obviously didn't have enough food to fill his stomach. Looking at those beautiful candies, I obviously want to eat them.

Sensing his gaze, Xi Tang turned her head to take a look, moved her body to slightly block his gaze, and shook her hooded head, expressing that she would never give it to him.

The man holding the little boy paid attention, smiled at them shyly, held the boy's head and gently turned his face away, then took out a tightly wrapped paper bag from his arms and opened it. Holding a small piece of bread that looked hard, he handed that to the boy, bowed his head and whispered something in his ear.

The boy nodded obediently, and instead of stuffing the bread into his mouth immediately, he broke the small amount of bread in half with his seemingly thin hands, and put one piece in the man's hand.

The man's eyes became very gentle, he patted his shoulder, felt the protruding bones under his hands, and sighed with reddish eye circles, he was moved by his son's sensibility, and blamed himself for his powerlessness.

Seeing such a scene, Fangran couldn't swallow the compressed biscuits in his mouth immediately. The man's body didn't look very good, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a state of despair. He wanted to help, but he thought of messing with him in M ​​City In spite of the trouble, he still forced himself to look away.

But what was unexpected this time was that Qi Min actually took a few candies from Xitang's hand, got up, walked to the little boy, squatted down, spread his hands and stretched out in front of him, "Do you want to eat?"

The boy's hand holding the bread was tight, and his dark eyes were full of longing, but he still looked up at the man who was holding him first, asking for his consent.

The young man in front of him had a harmless face, and he didn't seem to have any evil intentions. It should be just a sudden kindness. Under the expectant eyes of his precious son, the man finally couldn't refuse and nodded to him.

The little boy smiled, with a dimple on his cheek, very cute. He carefully took a candy from that clean hand, and asked hesitantly, "Can I get one for Dad?"

Qi Min stretched out his hand, turned his palm over, and put all the candies in his little hands, "These are all yours, you can divide them slowly, and give them to anyone you want."

The boy was flattered to harvest so many candies at once. He glanced at the man and found that he was not angry, so he smiled sweetly, "Thank you brother!"

Qi Min reached out and touched his head, his eyes softened a little, "You have to be strong, no matter how hard you are, you have to live a good life, it will change one day, you know?"

"Yeah." Although the boy didn't understand what he said, he still nodded. This brother is really gentle. He put his hand on the other's hanging arm gently, "Does it hurt, brother?"

"It doesn't hurt." Qi Min shook his head lightly, seeing the boy's dark eyes clearly showing disbelief, and added, "It only hurts a little."

The boy tilted his head and thought for a while, leaned over and blew on it a few times, "Father said Huhu will stop hurting, I will help brother Huhu, you won't hurt, right?"

There was no impurity in his innocent eyes. Even if he couldn't fill his stomach and had to face those living dead, he still didn't give up believing in some good things. This is the most precious thing in today's environment.
