Tomorrow's Ark, Second International

Be more careful, not obsessed with finding people, but pay more attention to some other objects.

"Officer Hoshiguma, do you have any suggestions?"

For this kind of exploration that is close to investigation, it is obvious that Hoshiguma is more experienced. She can discover things that guerrillas cannot discover. This kind of thing has nothing to do with talent, but more with scientific training.

"Give me some time, Commander Morrison."

Hoshiguma did have some conjectures, but such conjectures cannot be directly stated, and some verification is still needed.

It doesn't make any sense to look at a shack alone. Hoshiguma has never lived in this kind of place, and he doesn't know what a complete "home" should look like for the people who live here.

So she needs more contrast, and use contrast to restore it a little bit.

'Clothes...'

She didn't find any clothes in these shacks, which seemed to confirm that the infected residents here had already migrated elsewhere.

'food...'

There is no doubt that there is no food of any kind here, but the fact that this has been expected is not of much value.

'Daily necessities...'

This belongs to Xingxiong’s knowledge blind spot. In different regions, the definition of daily necessities is also different. For Longmen people, toilet paper, soap, shampoo, etc. are all daily necessities, but for poor and backward places, they don’t know how to use them. plant something.

No way, we need to continue the comparison.

Chapter 1146 Found

Morrison didn't follow Hoshiguma around at first, he also wanted to use his own strength to make some attempts to see if he could find something here.

It's a pity that he can't see anything, and he has to accept his own strengths. In the end, he can only honestly ask if he can help Hoshiguma.

"Help me ask other team members what their daily necessities used to be."

Hoshiguma really wanted to get some information from other perspectives from the slave-born members of the guerrillas, but the news he got made her dumbfounded.

What is the reason? According to the guerrillas who were born as slaves, they did not have any personal items at all, and they only counted on a weekly "bath" for personal hygiene, that is, a group of staff gave them water guns. rinse.

In terms of "freedom", they are not as good as the infected here, and they can't provide much help.

I'm afraid that if they want to really get help, they still need to rely on the Ursus civilians on the Enterprise. They should be in the same situation as the people here, at most there are subtle differences.

It's just that Hoshiguma didn't take the time to ask in the end, and before she herself believed that this place had been abandoned, she finally found more valuable evidence - a string of ordinary footprints.

In the absence of footprints in other places, this series of footprints is even more conspicuous. For an experienced policeman like Hoshiguma, searching for information from footprints is really engraved in his instinct.

First of all, the most important thing is time. Although it is impossible to judge accurately from one point, this footprint definitely appeared after a large-scale population transfer, otherwise it would be impossible to leave only such a footprint.

Hoshiguma has observed it, and the airtightness of this shack is extremely poor, the dust can come and go whenever it wants, and it is impossible for an ordinary footprint to stay for too long.

The second is the location. Which enemies a person has been to can be partially judged by footprints, and secondly, there is a guess about the person's size and weight.

As far as Hoshiguma judged, this must have come from a child, and there were some different soils on the footprints, which she extracted and prepared to show to Morrison.

In the end, I can roughly guess the purpose of the owner of the footprints. The footprints discovered by Hoshiguma pointed to the "indoor" instead of the outdoors. After entering from the outdoors, he walked directly to a box, and then left through the gap behind the box. The dirt on the box can also support this.

However, the outdoor footprints have disappeared without a trace, and nothing can be found.

She also tried to open the box, but it didn't take much effort, and she found nothing in it, so she didn't waste that energy thinking.

Let Morrison take a look at the soil first.

"Where did Officer Hoshiguma find this dirt?"

Morrison attached great importance to the soil, and he told Hoshiguma the answer without even waiting for Hoshiguma's answer.

"The soil comes from underground, and it is very different from the soil on the surface."

Morrison is a professional who graduated from this field. The exploration profession is more or less related to geology, so he has a basic understanding of these.

"Miss Hoshiguma, look at the ground where we are now, have you noticed any problems?"

"what is the problem?"

Hearing what Morrison said, Hoshiguma squatted down and touched the ground everywhere, but naturally found nothing, it was something very familiar.

"The soil in this land is very compact, and these are the result of being crushed by land ships and mobile cities for a long time."

Although I usually don't think about this much, I found out after listening to Morrison that this is indeed the case. Unless it is a place where land ships and mobile cities cannot pass, most of the rest of the soil has long been crushed into dirt roads, and even Even tighter.

After all, the rollers that crush dirt roads are not as heavy as mobile cities. This land has been crushed too hard for a long time.

"Officer Hoshiguma, the soil you found is very soft, and the color is also different. If I guess correctly, it contains Origin Stone."

This is a source stone mine, so where will there be soil containing source stones? Hoshiguma has already thought of the answer.

underground.

"We may have all entered into a misunderstanding." Hoshiguma, who had figured it out a bit, immediately suggested, "Go to the entrance of the mine immediately!"

Morrison also thought of this, and it didn't take long for them to come to the mine tunnel in this mining area after the team assembled.

The origin stone mine in this mine did not appear on the ground that is convenient for mining, but deep in the ground, at least not close to the ground from the elevator, it is so dark that nothing can be seen clearly, nor can it be seen. Can't judge the depth.

But when Morrison saw the elevator in the center, he became more and more sure that someone was hiding in the lower part. The elevator was well maintained, but the power supply was removed and taken away.

If it is a migration, there is no need to take such a thing with you, and you can't eat it, and you can't sell it.

"Officer Hoshiguma, do you want to go down with me?"

Although the lift was unusable, it was not impossible to go down. He pointed to the maintenance ladder next to the lift, and he could climb down from there.

"No problem, I'll go ahead."

It's not that she underestimated Morrison's fighting power, but Morrison really had something to eat. She thought she could easily knock him down with one hand, and it would be very troublesome if he was put in danger.

Morrison obviously knew how much he weighed, and he didn't compete with Hoshiguma for anything. After seeing her slowly climbing down with the shield on her back, he also followed her.

The deeper they went underground, the more obvious the echoes became, but they still didn't hear any movement other than their own footsteps.

Until they saw the first mine tunnel, which should be an abandoned mine tunnel that has been mined, it just appeared in a suspended position, but it happened to be very close to the ladder.

The two of them didn't continue down, and just stepped on the ground again.

"What's next?"

Morrison gave Hoshiguma a reassuring look, and he took off his mask directly, revealing the hideous and terrifying face underneath.

"You are this?"

"It's okay." Morrison didn't think about it temporarily, but made a decision after thinking for a long time, "If someone is really down here, they must have heard our voices, maybe they are watching us, then I show Such a face should let them know that I am an infected person."

"Is there anyone? We are the International Federation of Infected Persons. We heard that some people were left here after the city of Sanok was captured. We are here to save people."

Morrison shouted directly in his hoarse voice, in his words, the simpler the method, the more effective it is.

After Morrison's echo echoed underground for a long time, there was actually a response in the mine.

"Please go inside."

This response appeared in front of the two of them, but neither of them responded, they just walked in slowly, with Hoshiguma in front and Morrison behind.

Chapter 1147 Premonition

Before entering, Morrison had thought about many situations, the worst of which was that the humans here were going to treat them as prey.

But he still walked in with Hoshiguma, he believed that Hoshiguma's skills could allow them to escape safely, and there was another possibility in his heart.

That is, the human beings here still maintain their human identity, and the reason why they dare not come out to face him is because they are afraid, afraid that he is lying.

Think about it, even gangsters need to vote for a certificate in order to be trusted. If both parties keep this suspicion, then things will never make any progress, so he decided to take such a step first.

There are not many lights inside the mine tunnel, and no one dares to light a fire here. Morrison quickly turned on the flashlight on his chest. A bright flashlight made, but it's better than nothing.

Apart from the darkness, the most terrifying thing here is probably the silence. After walking toward the inside of the mine for about 2 minutes, Hoshiguma and Morrison could only hear their own footsteps and heartbeat, as if someone had The export invitation was just his hallucination.

Until, a slightly pale figure suddenly appeared in front of the dim light. His face didn't have much flesh, and he was as thin as a skeleton.

When encountering such a situation suddenly in the dark, ordinary people might be scared to death, but Morrison was relieved instead.

His own face was even scarier than the withered appearance of the person opposite, not to mention, it would be really scary if the person in front of him had a healthy and rosy face.

It is an established fact that infected people lack food, so what exactly is this healthy and rosy food?Can't think about it.

The man didn't hold a weapon in his hand. If you look closely, you will find that although he looks like a mummy, his eyes are still bright, but his eyes dodge and he doesn't look at Morrison.

"Are you from Infected Persons International? Sorry, can you move your lights away, my eyes can't stand it."

Most people can't remember and are too lazy to remember the full name of the international, so the abbreviation is more catchy.

This is also a common situation for people who have lived in the dark for a long time. Morrison simply turned off the lights. Anyway, the darkness will not affect Hoshiguma's fighting ability, so it will be more trustworthy.

"Yes, according to the leader's order, we came here to look for survivors. You don't have to believe me now, but I hope you can take someone out with me. We brought food and water."

The establishment of trust is a long-term process. Although Morrison's appearance is hard to tell his race, the horned person is definitely not an Ursus. A non-Ursas wants to get Ursas Human trust is more difficult.

Simply use some more direct methods, the silver bullet offensive is still very useful sometimes, anyway, he is here to save people, as long as the food is distributed, it doesn't matter if these people still don't believe him.

The mummy-like infected person never thought that the person who came here would be so straightforward. Under his unique call, several people appeared behind him, but they did not approach rashly. it is good.

Keeping this distance, the two groups of people came to the patio again, but this time they did not slowly climb up from the maintenance ladder, but used the elevator in the center of the patio.

These infected people don't know who did it, but they actually made a temporary console underneath. As long as they are connected to the power supply, they can use the equipment that was originally set up for transporting ore.

Others waiting outside have already prepared everything, clean bottled water, and some finished bread.

Since the fire cannot be lit below, it is naturally impossible to give them something that cannot be eaten directly. Let them fill their stomachs first, and then talk about the rest.

"Remember not to let people eat too much at once, or it will overwhelm you."

"I understand...Thank you very much for saving your life."

After thanking him, the infected person who came into contact with Morrison at the beginning did not go back with the others, and he just stayed on it.

"I now believe even more that you are the Infected Persons International."

"Oh, did you say you didn't believe it just now?"

"No, just now I was willing to believe, but now I am convinced."

Looking at their appearance, they knew that they were almost at the end of the road, and suddenly there was a life-saving straw in front of them. They had to try everything, but the life-saving straw was a thick rope, so everyone was happy.

"Why did you choose to hide below?"
