Chapter 20 Reunion
"Once again, I remind citizens that temporary shelters are to protect the safety of all citizens. Please stay calm and orderly..."
Noisy voices came from outside the window, and various evacuation regulations were played on the radio, mixed together.
The large amount of noise makes people irritated, but it also inexplicably gives people a sense of peace and order.
Due to the fact that the zombie virus is not fully understood, to be on the safe side, all survivors housed in this military base will have a period of observation.
Lu Bai leaned against the cold cement wall and looked at the light coming from the small window above his head in boredom.
Although they are single rooms, these rooms are probably converted from solitary cells or prisons. Anyway, they have one thing in common, that is, they are empty and there is nothing to kill time.
He was brought in last night, and it was already dawn outside.
The situation is like this, so just think about humanized management.
Fortunately, there will be dedicated personnel to provide food and drinking water on time, and most of the survivors who are under quarantine and observation are not dissatisfied.
Well, of course there are exceptions.
"Iron doors~iron windows~iron~chains~"
Lu Bai's eyelids twitched as he listened to the sad singing in the next room.
He was basically 90% sure that the guy next door was a Death Fighter.
After all, he has eliminated so many Death Fighters, and even if there is no positioning information to verify, he can still tell the difference from the opponent's mental state.
After experiencing a zombie outbreak, normal survivors would rarely be so optimistic as to be so heartless.
However, even if the Death Fighter was right next door to him, Lu Bai would not be able to take action in such a place.
Let’s talk about it after we go out.
It's a coincidence that the person next door sang a few lines.
Lu Bai noticed the sound of military boots hitting the ground.
Squeak~
Two soldiers with live ammunition came over. One of the soldiers opened the iron gate and waved to Lu Bai: "Come out."
…
Led by two soldiers, Lu Bai came to a place similar to an office hall.
There were many survivors like him who were led over by soldiers. There were staff sitting behind each glass cabinet, and there was an air of orderliness in the busyness.
Seeing Lu Bai sit down in his seat, the staff behind a layer of glass smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I just need you to answer some simple questions."
Lu Bai glanced at the soldiers scattered throughout the hall and nodded obediently.
"Name?"
"Ke Jianghao."
"age?"
"eighteen."
"Where were you when this social security issue broke out? Did you have close contact with patients?"
"School……"
"...Don't be nervous. It's safe here. Okay, thank you for your cooperation. You can go and rest in the tent assigned to you."
The staff member stopped typing on the keyboard, noticed the information displayed on the computer screen out of the corner of his eye, and asked casually: "Xiao Ke, do you have a younger sister?"
Lu Bai was already ready to leave. Hearing this question when he was standing up, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and then he showed an extremely excited expression: "Yes, that's right, have you seen my sister?"
"Haha, you two brothers and sister are very lucky. Well, let me see, your sister is in tent 13 in area 21."
…
After leaving the office hall, Lu Bai naturally suppressed the excitement on his face.
What came into view were densely packed military tents. People were coming and going between the tents, and some were even playing poker together.
Obviously, due to the lack of personnel, martial law is currently at best tight on the outside and loose on the inside.
For areas with thousands of people, two or three soldiers are assigned. As long as there's no fighting, no one cares.
Lu Bai looked in the direction of District 20, hesitated for a moment, and decided to go to District 21 to have a look.
Ke Jiangni is in this shelter, which means that other people should be with her.
However, it is strange that Lu Bai's impersonation of Ke Jianghao was not exposed.
Could it be that Ke Jianghao sent it on the way to the shelter?
While Lu Bai was thinking about it, he walked in the direction of District 21, still maintaining a harmless smile on his face.
By the way, at this stage, temporary shelters are under semi-military management, and citizens are prohibited from traveling across areas.
But this kind of regulation, how should I put it... is the same as not allowed in principle.
If you are not caught red-handed, it is not a violation.
Avoiding the eyes and ears of the soldiers along the way, Lu Bai easily sneaked into Area 21.
"Hey~ When will this hellish day end?"
"Come out and bask in the sun."
"Baby, don't cry, mom is here."
"It was so exciting. Let me tell you, the monster was only half a meter away from me at that time..."
It has to be said that human beings are extremely adaptable creatures. No matter what happens, life can always go on as long as you are not dead.
Lu Bai looked around and didn't see the few acquaintances in school.
Simply check the numbers posted on the tents one by one.
Lu Bai stopped and poked his head into a tent. Unfortunately, except for a few quilts, no one was there.
He turned around and confirmed the number: "21-13, that's right."
At this moment, a surprised and somewhat uncertain voice sounded behind him.
"Lu...Classmate Lu?"
Lu Bai turned around reflexively.
When he saw the not-so-pretty but familiar face standing behind him, he couldn't help but raise his brows slightly: "Wu Ya."
Wu Ya nodded vigorously, with obvious joy in her tone: "It's really you, I thought I admitted my mistake."
Lu Bai asked: "Are you the only one?"
"Jiang Ni and Tian Wang are getting food over there." Wu Ya pointed to an awning in the distance that was surrounded by a crowd.
"Where are the others?"
As soon as this question came out, the joy on Wu Ya's face disappeared instantly and became darker at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lu Bai stopped asking and asked why they left the supermarket.
After all, it had only been less than a week, and I thought with the supermarket's stock of supplies, they wouldn't have to risk their lives to leave in search of food.
"I don't know what to say either."
Wu Ya was silent for a long time, as if she was afraid of bringing back memories of that time: "The second night after you left, there seemed to be an extra person in the supermarket."
"Like?" Lu Bai noticed her choice of words.
"Well... all of us feel the same way, but Ke Jianghao searched all over the supermarket and couldn't find the extra person."
Describing the situation at that time, Wu Ya felt a chill on her back even under the sunlight.
"Such a supernatural thing." Death Fighter?
Lu Bai was thoughtful and touched Wu Ya's head to express comfort.
With his hearing far beyond that of ordinary people, he was not worried about the Death Fighter's ability to become invisible.
But in Wu Ya's description, it seemed that it was more than just being invisible.
