abyss rose

Chapter 14

Chai Yuening has always known that those who can survive in the depths of the fog zone definitely have good abilities.

But getting used to Chu Ci'an's quiet appearance, she did forget that this was the person she picked up from the foggy area.

This time she saw Chu Ci shoot for the first time.

The hand is steady and the gun is accurate.

The muzzle is aimed at the same kind, but the gaze is so calm that no one can see a trace of struggle on her body.

The seemingly thin young girl seemed to exude an invisible majesty.

No need for any verbal deterrence, just holding a gun and standing there quietly, people can't ignore it, let alone act rashly.

A mercenary expressed his position, which made many mercenaries who were still hesitant clenched their guns tightly.

The unarmed and angry crowd calmed down.

They are angry, they rebel, all because they are afraid of death.

So at this moment, no one would bet on whether a man with that look would shoot again.

Everyone is afraid that the next bullet will hit themselves.

"Killing all infected people is an order from the main city military! Protecting every uninfected person is also an order from the main city military! It is impossible for every security officer in the sixth district to kill innocent people indiscriminately! If we kill people, we don't need any reason , then we will shoot at the moment you step out of the cordon, instead of waiting for you to grab the guns from our hands and put them on us!" Cheng Shan shouted loudly, eyes full of fatigue Bloodshot, his voice was sonorous and forceful, but with a bit of helpless depression, "Whether you believe it or not, I can use my life to assure you that people who have no signs of infection after six tests can all return home." Home!"

The voice of the Chief Sheriff resounded in the waiting hall.

The silent silence lasted for an unknown amount of time.

Someone was trembling and choking, and said what was suppressed in his heart: "But...infection does not mean that it will mutate... So many people had a chance to survive."

"According to the data that came out before the fifth district lost contact, the mutants that appeared this time have extremely strong infectivity and a high mutation rate. The infection method may even be just a bloodless scratch. The shortest time from infection to mutation can be as long as It takes half an hour. If so many infected people mutate at the same time, no matter here or during the transfer process, once one of them is not killed in time and the infection spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable! Moreover, a very small wound has It may be infected, and the infection of a small wound has an incubation period ranging from two to six hours. If the wounded keeps silent, the test cannot be carried out at all! This is how the fifth area of ​​the base fell..." Cheng Shan said, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath In one breath, "If there is a better option, the base will not make such a decision."

City sheriffs are responsible for maintaining law and order in the city. Many of them have never been to the ground, have never seen a strange beast, and have never killed the same kind.

But on this day, they were all forced to become executioners who obeyed orders.

Some words, perhaps outside this waiting hall, thousands of people who have never been so close to death can still believe and understand.

But at this moment, these people standing beside the pool of blood of the same kind are destined to find it hard to let go.

Because they witnessed a shooting/killing.

They know that these uniformed guardians guard the Sixth District, the base, and humans.

However, this protection can be sacrificed at any cost.

The silent confrontation lasted for an unknown amount of time.

A sheriff threw away the gun in his hand, covered his cheeks, and knelt on the ground in a broken mood.

That burst of suppressed crying that was almost suffocating broke the taut strings in everyone's hearts here.

The passengers who calmed down returned to their own quarantine area.

With the help of mercenaries, all the corpses that could not rest in peace were lifted out of this place and sent to be sterilized and cremated.

Cheng Shan was still worried, and hoped that Chai Yuening would wait for the results of the six tests before leaving.

He was worried that among the remaining people there would be infected people who could not be detected for the time being, and would infect the crowd unconsciously. If there was a second execution, the anger would only be even greater than before. .

Chai Yuening understands such worries, and this situation may indeed exist, so she suppressed the anxiety in her heart and chose to stay and watch for a while.

When everything subsided, Chu Ci sat in a corner away from everyone.

From time to time, scrutinizing gazes cast her with admiration, fear, or loathing.

But she turned a blind eye and just lowered her head to play with the gun in her hand.

After helping to dispose of the last corpse, Chai Yuening walked slowly to Chu Ci's side and sat down, hesitated to speak several times, took a last look at the gun in her hand, pointed her finger, and cleared her throat in embarrassment : "Well, is it going well?"

Chu Ci lowered his eyes, nodded and said "hmm".

Chai Yuening: "The marksmanship is pretty good, how long have you been practicing?"

Chu Ci: "Forgot."

Chai Yuening: "Forget you forgot."

Chu Ci: "..."

Chai Yuening took a deep breath, leaned forward slightly, clasped her hands in front of her body, forced a smile on her face, and said softly, "Thank you."

Chu Ci pursed his lips and asked in a low voice, "Thank me for what?"

"Actually, I should have taken that shot." Chai Yuening said, "After everything is over, those who survived should hate me, and hate those sheriffs standing here today."

Chu Ci: "I don't care."

Chai Yuening: "So many people care, so many people are hesitant, why don't you care?"

Chu Ci: "Because I know, you will do the same."

Chai Yuening: "Then what are you fighting with me for?"

Chu Ci thought for a while, and said very calmly: "You care, so I'll be fine."

Chai Yuening choked for a moment.

She was silent for a long time, her palm gently covering the back of Chu Ci's hand.

"When the six tests are over and it's safe here, we'll go to District Five."

"Ah."

Chai Yuening looked at Chu Ci, thinking uncontrollably, what kind of person is this girl she picked up from the foggy area?

She wanted to ask, but in the end she didn't.

She and Chu Ci sat in this extremely depressing waiting hall, eating the bread and water handed by the sheriff, waiting for the time to pass by.

The electronic watch reached 21:18.

Passengers in the waiting hall will be accompanied by a sheriff even when they go to the toilet.

Under such strict surveillance, they have been tested again and again according to the regulations, and none of them has shown signs of infection so far.

Chai Yuening couldn't help thinking that after the last test at ten o'clock, the risk in District [-] would be lifted.

She stared at the electronic watch intently, as if if she kept looking at it, the time would be much easier.

But at this moment, a shrill scream came from the public restroom not far away.

"What's going on!" Someone asked in panic.

Chai Yuening stood up and looked towards where the scream came from.

A terrified passenger rushed out of the bathroom almost scrambling.

He yelled for help and ran desperately to this side.

In the next second, countless guns pointed at him vigilantly, but before he could defend himself, a black scorpion tail pierced his chest.

The moment the scorpion tail was pulled out, he fell to the ground in a daze.

Blood, along the wound, stained the smooth tiles on the ground.

A strange beast stepped on the man's back, and the four forefeet imprisoned the human's body.

No one could see at what speed it rushed out.

Its lizard-like eyes stared coldly at the isolated crowd not far away, as if coveting prey.

The blood-stained sharp tail, under the incandescent lights on the top of the station, presents a strange luster.

Shredded human clothing hung on the body of the strange beast.

Nothing but the sheriff's uniform.

Someone was injured, but they didn't report it!

"Shoot!" Someone yelled.

The gunshot rang out, and the strange beast jumped sideways to avoid it, turned around and rushed towards the crowd.
