Girls Frontline: Griffin Security

Walking through the deserted thick fog, Xu Bin looked left and right but couldn't see a single person.

The seats and billboards along the road... the doors and windows outside the houses, the drainpipes... all have dark red rust on their surfaces, making the streets look bright red, as if they were covered with a layer of blood.

Fortunately, there was a pale fog surrounding him, which diluted the bloody red on the road a lot...Xu Bin rubbed his eyes and walked into the shopping street ahead.

I originally wanted to find a place to have breakfast in town, but the street was empty and there was not even a shop open.

This scene made Xu Bin feel puzzled... Could it be that all the residents in the town had moved away, leaving only Grandma Rotty here waiting for her son's "return"?

goo—

The screaming sound from his stomach interrupted Xu Bin's thoughts. It seemed that the lack of sugar in his blood could no longer support him to think deeply.

...

Just when Xu Bin was wondering whether to go up the mountain to catch some rabbits to roast, the sound of guitar playing suddenly caught his attention.

It was a beautiful and sad song...it seemed to tell a story about "struggle".

Strangely enough, Xu Bin always thought that he had no talent in art appreciation. But this piece of music successfully engraved the word "struggle" into his heart... It was really magical.

Following the direction of the sound, he came to a musical instrument store. A woman was playing the guitar with her eyes closed, not noticing his arrival.

Sitting on the piano chair beside him and waiting patiently for a while, when the song finally ended, Xu Bin spoke to the other side:

"Hey...excuse me, ma'am"

"I am here with a friend visiting relatives in town. Do you know what happened here? Why is there no one on the street...?"

The sudden questioning seemed to scare the woman. She took a deep breath before looking up, looking at the stranger in front of her and answering:

"The people in the town... basically all disappeared"

"Missing?"

Xu Bin couldn't help but widen his eyes... You know, this is a small town with hundreds of people living in it! He could understand if a dozen or twenty people were missing, but wasn't it too exaggerated if hundreds of people disappeared at the same time?

But even though he was shocked, he really didn't see anyone on the road just now. The woman in front of him might not be lying...

After struggling to sort out the information in his brain, Xu Bin then asked:

"Then why don't you flee from here? Have the local police said anything?"

"The police in the town said there were unidentified creatures, and they all died a few years ago..."

The woman was silent for a moment with a sad look on her face, then she reached out and touched a bulge on her back that was covered by her clothes:

"It's like a curse. We can't leave here. Our heads are buzzing all day long. 'It' seems to have made us a little crazy... My name is Hailey Garcia"

"My name is Xu Bin"

He stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other person. Just as he was about to continue asking what the "it" Garcia had just mentioned was, a shrill air raid alarm suddenly sounded from the center of the town.

WU——

Hearing the sudden alarm, Garcia's expression changed instantly. She put down the guitar in her hand, stood up and ran out:

"Those things are about to come out again, find a place to hide!"

"What 'those things'.....Ms. Garcia? Garcia?"

The woman who rushed out of the door ran very fast. At the same time, Xu Bin was unable to do strenuous exercise on an empty stomach, so he could only watch the other person running farther and farther away.

What the hell, what is going on...

...

But no matter what, we still need to be on guard against the air raid alarm. What should we do if it is really an air raid?

Thinking of this, Xu Bin, who left the musical instrument store, picked up a steel pipe and used the tail end of it to smash the glass door of a small shop... This was definitely wrong, but the situation was urgent and he had to fill his stomach first.

After comforting himself, he cleaned up the glass shards, then leaned into the shop, picked up some bacon and started to eat it in the store.

After a quick inspection of the shelves, I found that most of the food here had expired several years ago. I wondered what had happened to the owner of this place. Could he also be a missing person?

While thinking about these questions in his mind, Xu Bin stuffed the long-shelf-life products on the shelves into his bag, such as canned bacon...nutritional drinks...he did not miss any of them.

Of course, I had no intention of taking other people’s goods for free. Not everyone has the nerve to do something as abstract as “zero-yuan shopping”.

Taking out a piece of notepaper from his bag, Xu Bin wrote down his contact information and the goods he had taken on it, then stuffed it into the cash box at the counter before turning around and walking out the door.

.

"Commander, where are you?"

The intercom in the bag suddenly rang, and the anxious voices of the humanoids were heard from it.

Just as Xu Bin took it out of his bag and was about to respond to the other party, a "sizzling" sound of electricity suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"I said I'm in the shopping street next to the hotel, can you hear me?"

"Can you hear me? Hello?"

What the hell!

Cursing inwardly, Xu Bin hung it on his shoulder. It was really strange. This intercom from the future world would not normally malfunction... Why was there a sudden noise now?

Thinking about the air defense alarm that suddenly sounded just now, Xu Bin's first reaction was that it was interfered by the military's electronic warfare equipment.

But this speculation seems unlikely... The Hill Mountain area is located in the heart of the Eagle Federation. Not only does it lack strategic value, but even if a war breaks out suddenly, the enemy would not be able to get here so quickly, right?

Forget it. This place isn’t too far from the hotel anyway. I should go back quickly and reunite with the humanoids first. I’ll think about the rest later when I get back.

Xu Bin shrugged and turned to continue walking towards the hotel, but at this moment...

.

Dong——, Dong——, Dong——

A dull "footsteps" suddenly came from behind.

I say it sounds like "footsteps" because it comes from a small alley behind me, and the sound has the unique rhythm of human walking. It is getting louder and closer...

The reason why it doesn't sound like "footsteps" is that the sound is too heavy, as if something heavy is being hit on the ground again and again.

Hearing this strange noise, Xu Bin didn't dare to move forward any further - exposing his back to unknown people would undoubtedly be dangerous.

So he reached out and pressed the pistol on his waist, and stared at that direction with a vigilant look...

Dong——, Dong——, Dong——

As the footsteps got closer, the noise from the shoulder-mounted walkie-talkie became louder and louder.

Finally, as a huge black shadow walked out of the alley, the owner of the footsteps also revealed his true identity:

A humanoid monster with thin limbs and no long face suddenly appeared in front of him. Its hands and feet were bound by four large objects like sandbags, making it extremely difficult to move. It was about two meters tall.

This is probably why the footsteps sound so heavy...

"I....cao..."

Xu Bin was completely dumbfounded. He had dealt with many enemies with guns and cannons, but he had never seen this kind of inhuman monster.

How do I shoot now? Will a pistol work?

Thinking of this, Xu Bin quickly pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger at the other party without hesitation - there was no need to warn him anymore.

Bang, bang, bang!

Several 9mm pistol bullets were accurately shot into the monster's head and chest, but it still moved towards Xu Bin, while letting out a miserable scream of "Um... Um..." from its mouth.

As the distance shortened, Xu Bin could see clearly that the other person was not "without a long face"...but had "lost his face".

The monster's eyes and nose seemed to have been gouged out, and the only remaining mouth was sewn shut with something like needle and thread. This ugly thing was now dragging its heavy hands and feet, approaching him step by step...

Hu——!

A "fist" the size of a sandbag suddenly came towards him with the sound of wind. Xu Bin quickly lowered his body and rolled over to avoid it.

Damn, 9mm pistol rounds are so weak!

Xu Bin rolled behind the monster and saw several bullet holes on the back of its head. He cursed inwardly and raised his gun to empty the magazine.

Bang! Bang, bang—

Still didn't work...

The monster turned around and walked over after feeling the pain. It let Xu Bin fire all the bullets he had, while it walked forward screaming "Uh... Uh..."

click

The slide had not returned to its original position, and the pistol was in an empty chamber - the bullets in the magazine were empty.

He quickly bent down to dodge the opponent's attack again. At the same time, Xu Bin picked up the rusty water pipe on the ground, stepped onto the monster's back in two steps, and inserted the pipe head into the wound on the back of its head and twisted it around.

"Well--!"

The monster screamed even louder this time. It bent down and suddenly lifted itself up, throwing Xu Bin, who was on its back, two meters away. Then it lay there, twitching continuously.

After landing, Xu Bin rolled over and stood up quickly, while taking out a tactical dagger... The steel pipe was now left on the monster's head.

.

"commander!"

A familiar voice suddenly came into his ears. Xu Bin turned around and saw three girls running towards him with guns in hand.

"Are you okay, Commander? What happened..."

"What the hell?"

M16 looked at the monster in front of him who was dying after being beaten by Xu Bin, and the cigarette in his mouth almost fell out.

"Don't be careless, there are two more!"

Xu Bin pointed to the alley ahead, and two more monsters with broken faces, whose hands and feet were bound by sandbags, came out. They made two low "Hmm...Hmm..." sounds and began to move towards this place.

After the shock just now, the humanoids reacted and immediately opened fire. After the opponent was sprayed with blood, SOP2 ended the battle with a grenade.

"Cough, cough cough—"

"SOP2, do you want to blow us up? At such a close distance!"

"I'm sorry, I don't think you can kill those things for a long time..."

Seeing that the monsters in front of them had completely stopped moving, the humanoids immediately escorted Xu Bin away from here. UMP40 also gave them two more grenades before leaving.
