A Doctor's Zombie Feeding Diary

Gerald and I walked out of this residential building, first turned on the terminal to find out the address of Julier School, and then walked onto the street after confirming the location.The winter has not been completely passed yet, and there is a constant chill in the air, but because it is noon, the feeling of the sun shining down does not seem to be that cold, and the people on the street are not dressed too thickly.

I glanced sideways at Gerald's clothes, then smiled at him and said, "Let's go."

If we want to walk to Julier's school, a rough estimate will take about 10 minutes.During the period, we would pass by a relatively lively street, just turning in to find a lunch, and by the way, show Gerald what the street looks like in the living area-now just standing on such an ordinary street without any characteristics, he I couldn't help but start looking around.

When he finally finished searching the street with his eyes, I patted him on the back and pulled him forward together.

Lamar City is not particularly famous in Sri Lanka, it is just a fairly ordinary member of the major urban areas, but it is precisely because of this ordinary feature that the entire city is shrouded in a harmonious atmosphere, not like the Capital District Over there is always full of the smell of storm condensation.There are residential buildings on both sides of this street, and there is basically nothing worth stopping to look at except for occasional pedestrians walking.So although Gerald is still extremely curious about such a scene, such ordinary houses and settings are not enough to fully attract his attention.

After completely entering the bustling street, he couldn't help but grabbed my cuff and slowed down.

I smiled and followed him to look at the layout and structure of this commercial street.A fountain that is not too big is set up at the entrance of the commercial street. The buildings around the fountain form a ring shape to surround the pedestrian street. There are traces of residents living on the buildings, but most of them seem to be of various types. storefront.The signs and reminders of these small shops are hung on the street lamps. Occasionally, some small containers can be seen placed at the door of the store. The goods should be delivered not long ago by the transport aircraft, and they are still waiting for the clerk to come out to pack them.

However, even in this special period when the virus is everywhere, there are still some unscrupulous people in the city and the streets who are ready to move at any time. They will not only focus on the products at the door of these stores, but also on the passers-by. purse.In addition, there are quite a lot of passers-by on this street, and most of them are walking quickly towards their destination, so I grabbed Gerald's forearm to keep him close to me at all times, so as not to Dispersed by crowds.

"Don't go too far," I first pulled him to stand on the side of the street, not obstructing the passage of other pedestrians, and then leaned into his ear and whispered, "Even if you can tell my location from the smell in the air , but there are many residents here, and it is difficult to guarantee that the breath will mix together and become chaotic. So no matter what you are curious about, or want to go anywhere, you must first tell me, I will go with you, understand Is it?"

"I know." Gerald nodded, and grabbed me with his backhand. Although he was still looking around, he didn't take another step.

At the end of the street in front of us is a magnificent church. It should have been built for many years. The bricks, stones and steel bars used are very old. The simple style of the rest of the surrounding buildings is out of place.In addition to these steel columns and transmission channels between the buildings above our heads, occasionally small spaceships will fly over the sky. Most of the spaceships have slogans of certain brands carved on their bodies, which can also be regarded as a form of advertising.

Behind the church is a huge towering building. The entire building seems to be made of special glass, which reflects blue light in the sun and penetrates along the gap between the streets. .I took out the portable terminal and took a look. Judging from the display on the map, that building is the government office building in this area. In addition to the usual city management personnel, the Lamar City Branch of the Virus Inspection Bureau should also be taken placed there.

But we probably won't go wandering in that area this time, and I won't stay for long after taking Gerald here for a brief look.

Compared with these buildings, what attracted Gerrard more seemed to be the pedestrians on the street.His eyes kept changing targets on these passers-by, maybe he was looking at their clothes, or maybe he was curious about the purpose of their walking so fast.

"Today is a working day. Most of the people who are still wandering on the street at this time are residents who don't need to work on time, or who just happen to be off today. The rest of these people who are in a hurry probably just finished their lunch and are planning to go back to work. People." I explained to him, "I checked just now, there are many kinds of meals on this street, where do you want to eat?"

"What are many types?" Gerald looked back at me at this time and asked.

"You probably won't be able to understand it for the time being." I smiled helplessly and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a shop with a good review first, and I'll have a chance to try other ones in the future."

After getting his consent, I took him into an ordinary restaurant nearby. The indoor environment is good, and because today is a working day, there are not many people in the restaurant, so we can also have a choice. He sat down on a seat by the window.And strictly speaking, this is the first time we have eaten together in a restaurant in such a serious way.After I walked in and sat down, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the waiter in the store, I smiled and asked the waiter to leave our table for a while, and then put the menu in front of Gerald and explained it to him one by one.

There will be many meals in the city's restaurants that cannot be provided to him at home and in the army base. For a guy who loves food like him, he was not able to take him out for a meal when he was still living in the capital district. It has always been one of my regrets, and this time it can be regarded as making up for him.

Fortunately, his current behavior is not much different from that of a normal person. Even if there are occasional small situations in language that do not appear in daily communication, the waiter will not approach us when we are eating, so I don't even know what I'm talking about to him.

For me, although these meals will not attract me to a great extent, it is also a kind of psychological satisfaction to see Gerald happy about it.

Unfortunately, we still couldn't stay for too long this time, so when he was still staring at the empty plate in front of him, I could only take him with him on the premise of making sure that he was not still hungry. out of the restaurant.After all, the purpose of our visit to Lamar City this time is to find out the reason why Julier contracted the virus. Taking time to take him to a meal is already the limit. If we delay any longer, Carrie Miville may What new situation will arise.

"If this virus really dissipates as we hope, I still have a lot of time and energy to take you anywhere you want to go," I said to him as I walked out of the restaurant, "to No matter what you want to eat, I will accompany you to find it—but now, we really have to hurry up."

Gerald looked back at the restaurant for the last time, moved his lips with the waiters in the store who were still smiling at every customer, nodded and said, "Okay."

I took him back to the street on our previous route, thought for a while, and said: "I never thought about where I would settle down, but I heard that in the town near Mr. Fisher's manor It seems that there is a good land, if possible, we can live there with the old man, and we can open a restaurant by the way, you can eat whatever you want."

"Are there any other different flavors?"

"There are a lot." I replied with a smile, "In addition to the tastes you have tasted so far, there are countless kinds of food that may suit your taste all over the place, including some special foods that only appear in other countries .And if there is no hindrance from the HLM virus, there are actually quite a lot of ways and means to go to other countries.”

After listening to my explanation, Gerrard was silent for a while before asking: "Where would I be now if there was no virus?"

"Who knows, it may be that you have successfully graduated from a prestigious school long ago, and then devoted yourself to an industry you love, and walked into the rest of your life safely and happily. Similarly, I will probably stay forever In the Bitterfield Research Institute, I continue to provide the best possible help for the research cause day after day." I sighed, "If there really was no HLM virus, maybe you will be happier than you are now."

"If I hadn't met you, I would definitely not be happier." Gerald shook his head, his tone was mixed with determination beyond my expectations. Although his brief introduction was not even that coherent, the meaning was clear without hesitation ,"……I can not live without you."

I was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Indeed, none of us can change what has happened, so there is no such assumption that if the HLM virus did not appear. If you think you are happy enough now, it is the best OK."
