The Chu siblings and Lu Jiao all live in the family area of ??Binhai Jiaotong University. This community is sandwiched between Binhai Jiaotong University and Hualiao Normal University - to be precise, it is semi-surrounded by the north and south branches of Hualiao Normal University. To the southeast is the campus of Binhai Rewards, and looking out from their kitchen window, you can also see the back of the teaching building of Binhai No. 49 Middle School. It would be nice if the red light appeared another month later. By then, both college students and middle school students would have gone home for the holidays. The number of monsters in this area would be far lower than the average level in the city. However, as soon as the red light arrives, It was lucky to show up last Saturday, otherwise 49 Middle School, which is only about thirty meters away from their home, would have been filled with monsters transformed by junior high school students. But no matter how many monsters there are, humans must drink water and eat to survive, so they must go out - even the most timid Lu Jiao knows this. The only thing that comforted her was that these monsters should have fought each other last night. The losers filled the stomachs of the winners. Theoretically, the total number of monsters should be reduced by about half - this theory is Chu Dong's exclusive invention. Although it is not known whether Chu Dong's theory is correct, he also said that it is much safer to go out when the monsters are not hungry than to wait until they and the monsters need to find food. At least this time Lu Jiao was convinced of this. Precisely because of this, this girl, who had been very timid since she was a child, mustered up the courage to block the stainless steel round stool Chu Dong gave her in front of her, and carefully followed the Chu brothers and sisters downstairs. Fortunately, the doorway where their home is located was not chosen by the monster as a shelter, and no monster was found in the places upstairs where you can't see it even if you lean out of the window as much as possible. However, this is not entirely luck. According to the stopped clock hand on the wall, Chu Dong can determine that the time when the red light flashed was 12:41. At this time, there were fewer people staying outside in the hot weather, and of course there were fewer monsters. Most of them Most monsters are locked up in their own homes. As for the two universities that are further apart, there will definitely be a lot of monsters. At this time, many college students who are sleeping in and playing games have just come out to buy lunch. People who are planning to go out in the afternoon should also have arrived near the school gate. station. Downstairs of their house, there is a small bungalow with controlled heating facing this doorway. The family of the worker who is responsible for looking after the valve has lived in it for many years. However, at this time, the iron door of the bungalow is closed tightly, and the windows with iron bars are welded inside. The curtains were kept closed, so Chu Dong could not be sure whether there was a monster inside. There seemed to be strange shadows shaking in front of several windows on the opposite floor, but neither Chu Dong nor the two girls made a sound, because the shadows were definitely not human. "I hope it won't rain." Chu Dong raised his head and looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. Just like in the morning, it was still very cloudy in the morning, making it impossible for him to determine the time through the sun, and it seemed to be cooler than yesterday. , this may be a sign of rain. Then he withdrew his gaze, turned to look at his slightly nervous sister and his very nervous childhood sweetheart, and seriously warned them again: "Remember, when you see a monster, you must grit your teeth and never yell. Calling, it would be dangerous if other monsters are attracted." "Yeah!" Lu Jiao, whose face was a little pale, clenched her teeth obediently and nodded fiercely, while Chu Xue only moved her lower jaw a few centimeters. She was as calm as Chu Dong, and she was indeed his twin sister. "Hey we should be fine as long as we are careful!" After cheering up the two girls and himself with a slightly trembling voice, Chu Dong, who had a stiff smile, firmly grasped the bone-cutting knife in his right hand and said He held the wok in his left hand in front of him and walked out of the door resolutely. His sister and Lu Jiao quickly followed behind him. Step by step, Chu Dong turned his head and walked up the big steps next to the small heating bungalow. Chu Dong looked at the end of the blood trail that dragged on the ground for more than ten meters. The bloodstains extended from the place where the three monsters were fighting to the door of the Jiaotong University family building located on the big steps next to their home. Perhaps it was because of the cloudy sky. Monster, but the monster that won the battle is undoubtedly hiding thereor maybe it's hidden on the stairs inside. "Be careful over there." Chu Dong lowered his voice and warned behind him, then turned sideways, paying attention to the red brick building behind them with one eye, and looking at the narrow aisle in front of them with one eye. This narrow aisle, which is only two meters wide, has the side of the light yellow building belonging to Xingfu Community on one side, and the old green handrail on the other side. Below it is also the Xingfu Community.area houses. At the end of the corridor is the fence at the back of No. 49 Middle School. When you turn around, you can see the door opening of the light yellow building. However, unlike the old Jiaotong University family building, the houses in Xingfu Community have corridor safety doors. It is impossible for monsters to hide in the door opening. . ", there are no monsters." Chu Dong poked his head out from the side of the light yellow building and confirmed that there were no monsters beyond the reach of his sight. Then he called his sister and childhood sweetheart and walked around the corner. Lu Jiao fell at the end. I can finally put down my stool and breathe a sigh of relief. ¡ª¡ªShe was originally protected at the back, but she was the one closest to the red brick building where the monster was hidden behind the three of them. In a place where she could be attacked by enemies in front, back and even from all directions, the safest place was not at the back but in the middle of the team. , but Chu Dong ignored this intentionally or unintentionally, and placed his sister in the middle position. "Brother, a towel fell over there, there is someone upstairs!" When Chu Dong carefully walked to the middle of the L-shaped light yellow building with his sister and childhood sweetheart, a towel suddenly fell at the end of the east-west building They looked up for the light blue towel and found that there was indeed a man in a blue vest waving a patterned pink towel vigorously from the fourth-floor window. "Wait for me, I'll be down right away." Before Chu Dong and the other three could reach the downstairs of his house, the man couldn't wait to shout to them, and then quickly rushed down to the fourth floor. When the other party opened the security door of the corridor, Chu Dong discovered that this dark and thin man did not seem to be much older than them. He was wearing a set of gray work clothes. The name of a famous domestic appliance brand was printed on the vest. It seemed that he was not a resident here. , but after-sales service personnel who come to repair or install home appliances. The appearance of Chu Dong and the others seemed to make the young after-sales service staff extremely excited. As soon as he opened the door, he asked happily: "I finally saw a living person. Where did you come from?" "" The accent of the other party should be "from the north". Although he had no prejudice against outsiders, Chu Dong did not answer the other party's question immediately. Instead, he looked at the other party for a while and felt that this seemingly reckless guy was harmless. , and then replied cautiously: "We live in the red brick building in front." "So close? My car is parked there!" Perhaps because he was too excited, this young man from out of town seemed to He didn't notice Chu Dong's caution, and after Chu Dong only asked a few questions, he began to talk endlessly about his experience yesterday. It seemed that he urgently needed to find someone to talk to to relieve the pressure and fear in his heart. This young man¡¯s name is Nie Chenxing. He is 19 years old. He came to Binhai City to repair home appliances soon after graduating from technical secondary school. When the red light flashed, he was repairing the air conditioner of the family on the fourth floor when he heard a sudden scream from behind him. He looked back in surprise, and saw the horrifying scene of the male owner who had turned into a monster biting his son's neck. At that time, he was just like Chu Dong's sister. Without thinking, he picked up the computer chair next to him and smashed it over, smashing the head of the male owner of the house. But unfortunately, the man was only in the first or second grade of elementary school. A large piece of flesh was bitten off the boy's neck and he could no longer survive. Then Nie Chenxing panicked and wanted to call the police, but found that his phone was broken. He stumbled downstairs, but was surprised to find that there were two scary-looking animals sitting on the bench not far outside the security door of the corridor. monster. So he returned to the fourth floor, looked into the distance from the windows in all directions, and was extremely surprised to discover the terrible fact that there was no longer a second human being within his sight. Like Chu Dong, this young home appliance repairman who entered the society early also likes to watch anime and read novels, so he immediately realized that now may be the kind of "apocalypse" that appears in anime and novels. However, although he easily killed a monster at the beginning of the apocalypse, he did not have the courage to take the initiative to go out and eliminate the monsters around him like the protagonist in the novel. Instead, he stayed in the house on the fourth floor to observe the surrounding situation and hope that Meeting other survivors, or rescuers who may never show up. ¡ª¡ªThis is actually similar to Chu Dong, except that Chu Dong took the first step earlier than him for his sister and childhood sweetheart. In addition, he also stored water, food and medicine after confirming the arrival of the end of the world. From this point of view, those works that describe the end of the world themes that are "impossible to appear in reality" actually still have certain practical significance. of. Even if the apocalypse has not come, those worksThe self-rescue knowledge in this book may also come in handy when readers encounter disasters such as earthquakes, fires, tsunamis, and vehicle crashes - at least it can help readers calm down faster and calmly think about self-rescue methods.
