Doomsday is like a shadow
Chapter 20
My name is Li Hua, I am 37 years old, and I am the mayor of City B. It has been 10 years since I worked slowly from a low-level employee to my current position. It is what keeps me motivated to keep a good attitude and persevere.
On May 2017, 5, on this day, I returned home after work. It was already late at night. Looking at the dark corridor, I felt a little lonely. I turned on the light, put on my slippers, and put my leather shoes on the On the shoe rack, I tore off the sweat-wet suit, threw it aside casually, sat on the sofa, picked up the photo frame on the coffee table, and immersed myself in the memories.
I used to have a happy family with a virtuous wife, her name is Guo Lan.
Even though Guo Lan took good care of the house when I often didn't go home and was busy all day and all night, when I came back, she never complained or felt the alienation I was worried about, and she was as gentle as ever every time. : "Hua, you're back." Although simple, it warms my heart.
If the person I feel the most guilty about is her, we have a daughter who is 14 years old this year. She is currently studying in junior high school in Z City, which is known as the "library". My daughter has become my only sustenance, but I dare not tell her that my mother has passed away. Except for the phone and fixed living expenses, we even cut off all contact. I am afraid that she will find out, but... this is just a self-deception. , She has been so smart since she was a child, so how could she not have noticed the abnormality in it.
"Uh...uh...ah!"
"Peng!" The severe pain in my chest and head suddenly hit me. I hugged my head and fell to the floor in pain. My body temperature was getting hotter and hotter. I couldn't think about anything anymore. Many fragmented pictures rushed into me forcefully. My mind, time, solar eclipse, blackout, car accident, chaos, darkness, red, zombies, supernatural powers, purgatory, doomsday...
On May 2015, 5, when I woke up again, it was already the next morning, and my whole body was wet with sweat and I felt uncomfortable. A dream, even if it is so clear and so real...until...
I put on a new suit, washed up, picked up my briefcase, and started a new day of work. When I arrived at the office, I asked my assistant Xiao Wu to make me a cup of coffee. I drank the bitter coffee and felt good. Many, I started to process documents and some application reports about real estate development, I tried to forget those horrible fragments, but for some reason, they always lingered, I couldn’t work at all in this state. After making three wrong documents, I remembered that I was going to a business exchange meeting in City A today. In fact, it was a meal and a chat in a restaurant. I originally wanted to go to this kind of entertainment, but In this state, I plan to go to City A to relax.
I drank the cold coffee in one gulp, picked up the briefcase, and talked to Xiao Wu. I left the office building and walked to the front of the zebra crossing. It was the time of work, so I was the only one here, empty, The little red man turned green, and I took a step, but at this moment, a picture broke into my mind, that was I was run over by a truck full of scrap iron, my head was hit to the sky, blood Spraying, I was so frightened that I retreated subconsciously.
"Buzz!"
"boom!"
A container truck brushed past my forehead, I was taken out, and my back hit a utility pole, and the truck rushed forward crookedly until it crashed into a fashion store. Kan stopped, I lay on the ground, gritted my teeth, and kept humming, otherwise I felt that I would shout out, the pain in my back made me realize the fact that the end of the world is real It's coming, but the time left for me is less than five days.
I reluctantly climbed up, my spine seemed to be really broken, constantly stimulating my nerves, and there were many abrasions all over my body, but I couldn't care less, and limped towards the office building, With the fastest speed I can achieve now, time is running out, hurry, hurry, must be fast... must be fast...
After returning to the office building, regardless of other people's surprised eyes, and one by one caring or mocking words, went straight to the top floor, my office, Xiao Wu saw that I immediately dropped the documents in my hand, and came over After helping me and sitting on the office chair, I let Xiao Wu go out.
I picked up the phone and called two people one by one. One was the director of the Public Security Bureau. His name was Wang Hong. He was a bold man. He was my old drinking buddy for many years. , the leader of the underworld is actually a woman, and also suffers from a strange disease, her body has been weak since she was a child, my relationship with her is not bad, but it is only based on interests, after all, if you want to be the mayor of city b To secure a seat, one has to take care of it both overtly and secretly. After promising enough benefits, the two agreed to help. However, after the end of the world, what is the use of these material things.
The moon slowly climbed into the sky, and with the bridge in the middle of the city as the dividing line, the small half of City B to the south was completely blocked by the police and gangsters. At my request, all vehicles were cleared and all intersections were cleared. The blockade prevented vehicles from entering, and an announcement was made to let everyone gather at the bridge before the next day. People were panicked for a while, but there was no way around it.
I looked at the slowly gathering crowd, and I felt an indescribable complexity in my heart. In a few days, most of the people would turn into that kind of monster, but I was powerless and stayed up all night...
On May 2015, 5, the sun slowly rose, and I stood on a high platform that had been set up in advance. Behind me was a huge screen, and under the screen were dense wires, connecting the audio system and the speakers in the city. Looking around Surrounded by dense crowds of people, although quite a few did not come, there was no time to wait any longer.
I took out the microphone, and I said that the end was coming, but not many people believed me, and the scene gradually became noisy. Everyone in Fu Yumeng and Wang Hong took up their guns and fired a few bullets into the sky. The sound of gunfire The impact hit people's hearts, and slowly, the scene returned to silence.
I don't know what to do to make them believe such absurd things. After all, I didn't believe it myself at the beginning, but I couldn't help it. I could only speak out what was in my heart. Not long after, someone finally came here, a People started, and gradually, more and more people came over, and some people went to the west. In the end, there were about 2 people here, most of them were the original residents in the south of the city and some people who believed in me, looking at the west Some emotional people, I shook my head, it seems that this is the limit.
But I also know that even if people come here, it will only increase the danger. In the face of tens of thousands of zombies, our chances of winning will be very small. I made up my mind, made a decision, took out a flare gun, "Bang!" With a bang, black smoke filled the sky, and a solid barbed wire fence separated the two places. After a bang, the bridge, which was the only connection point between the two sides, was blown apart by the explosives that had already been buried.
After listening to me tell the real situation, the two of them decided to believe me. The three of us started to organize the people to empty the nearby buildings, and also started to buy supplies frantically through various channels. How much, the unloading address is a large underground warehouse in city b.
On May 2017, 5, due to the help of large equipment, an open space was finally cleared overnight, and everyone was concentrated in this open space. In the past two days, many people committed suicide due to unbearable pressure. Some people still don't believe that the end is coming, but Li Hua has no choice. The end is coming. He loaded the shotgun in his hand and waited quietly under the oppressive atmosphere.
"Om!" My brain buzzed, a strange energy was suppressed from the sky, and the world became dark, as if the sun was covered by a black cloth, and the sound of people falling to the ground sounded one after another around.
After an unknown amount of time, the solar eclipse passed, and the sky turned a dark red like blood. Taking a deep breath, I clenched the gun in my hand and stared down.
Ordinary people were the first to wake up, and they ran into the building to hide according to the original plan.
Some people's skin began to rot, yellow grease was left behind, and they smelled like corpses. These are zombies. Zombies and people who have awakened abilities began to wake up one after another. They looked at the faint light in their hands and fell into ecstasy. After several supernatural beings were bitten to death by zombies, they regained themselves, but some of them lost their minds, ran around in fright, were tortured to death, and implicated others. Being able to kill zombies, although they already had some mental preparations, they were still bitten to death by zombies because they couldn’t do it or because they were unfamiliar with the use of abilities, and the number of zombies was several times that of those with abilities. Only the head of the zombie, I killed someone, this was my only thought at the time, but now I’m not allowed to think about it, suppressing the churning feeling in my stomach, I started to use the ability to command the ability to fight, people use The ability gradually became proficient, and many zombies were killed. After that, people also joined the battle with weapons, and we gradually regained the battle.
Although we won in the end, only 3547 people survived, including 568 people with supernatural powers. Everyone did not have the so-called joy brought by victory. For the first time, we learned the meaning of hell.
On May 2017, 5, we built a fence, demolished asphalt roads and buildings, and transformed bricks and tiles and other things into energy into the ground by some special people, turning this area into a land suitable for farming. Because we have gone through bloody "education", we have all understood that only survival is the most important thing, and food is far more important than these insignificant things. Those who are able can be ripened, and we have truly started a new life.
On May 2017, 5, the heavy black rain kept falling, and we didn’t know what it meant. Some people who got caught in the rain turned into zombies and began to panic. After spending three days in the dreary atmosphere, In the early morning, I predicted the clip of two women killing zombies. One of them, Lin Yan, did not seem to be human. Her fighting ability was called a monster. The picture flashed three times and ended. I saw her coming The appearance of city b, since then, I have a plan.
I always have a feeling in my heart, my daughter is alive, she must be alive, she is calling me, let me save her, but city B can't live without me now, I can't leave people behind, at least not now, but if If it was this woman, she would be able to save her, I have this feeling, so I am going to take a risk.
I paid the price of ten years of life in exchange for one year of that woman's future, even if it is only a fragment, but it is enough, touching my graying hair, I took out a pair of glasses from the drawer, which belonged to her , I have been keeping it, thinking that if I go there one day, I will take it with me. I didn’t expect to use it when I was alive. I wrote a letter and looked at the contents of the letter. eyes, smiling confidently.
In the evening, I got the news from Xueyue that a group of people had arrived. After arranging them to stay, I hugged the photo album and looked at it all night, recalling the bits and pieces of the past. I don’t know when I was buried in the book again. Fell asleep.
After being hit by something, I woke up, stuck my head out, I saw the woman standing there, scratching her head, I talked to her for a while, maybe it was really old, I actually said that to her Well, she was a very interesting little girl, and in the end she took the letter and went away without saying anything, but I wasn't worried because "I know".
On May 2017, 5, on this day, I returned home after work. It was already late at night. Looking at the dark corridor, I felt a little lonely. I turned on the light, put on my slippers, and put my leather shoes on the On the shoe rack, I tore off the sweat-wet suit, threw it aside casually, sat on the sofa, picked up the photo frame on the coffee table, and immersed myself in the memories.
