sunset escape

Tian Man lit the flashlight, and the sudden light source suddenly lit up in the darkness, clearly illuminating the mess inside.

A disgusting, huge and bloated monster was separated from its body, and red and yellow sewage flowed on the ground.A group of people recognized it for a while, and then someone cursed suddenly, and said, "That's corpse water."

The voices of nausea kept coming and going, Zhuang Fan stood at the front, looked at the weird zombie corpse with a serious expression, and after a while suddenly turned around and asked Tian Man: "The cars I saw in the parking lot, especially the tourist bus, are the people inside?" Woolen cloth?"

Tian Man withdrew the light of the flashlight, scanned the surrounding area, and replied, "Do you think they are still in the scenic area?"

Zhuang Fan nodded, turned around, and waved the crowd to spread out, revealing Hou Zhicheng and the man with glasses behind the crowd.

Hou Zhicheng was able to stand up now, but he still had to be supported to stand still.A lot of blood spilled from his fingers, flowed down his arm, and finally dripped on the ground.Huang Mao was holding a pile of medical supplies and was about to treat his wound.

"Yo, this is not bitten by a zombie." Tian Man pointed the flashlight directly at Hou Zhicheng's face.

Zhuang Fan frowned. He was his friend after all, and his tone was faintly worried: "Glasses, what's going on?"

The man with glasses glanced around but didn't find the culprit, so he said angrily, "The surname Xiang used a knife to cut it."

Huang Mao just took Hou Zhicheng's hand off, and the wound was exposed in front of everyone, making people gasp.It would have been fine if the knife wound had been placed on the cheek, but at most it would have disfigured his otherwise not-so-good face.But the injury started from the wing of the nose and ended at the chin, cutting the mouth vertically.The double lips turned into four lips, the skin was torn apart, and when they were closed together, they looked very abnormal.

Even Tian Man couldn't help but gasp.This Xiao Xiang looks quiet, but his hands are ruthless enough.

He Chen just walked over and saw this scene.

Forced to attack Jiayun so hard, I don't know what animal thing Hou Zhicheng is doing again.

He was a little puzzled, but his face was still calm, and he walked over to say hello to Zhuang Fan.

This time Zhuang Fan greeted him unceremoniously, and asked in a serious tone: "Where is Xiang Jiajun, why did you hurt Hou Zhicheng?"

He Chen answered in a hurry, found the two underage figures in the crowd, and waved to them.

Xia Shuya and Liu Yao were anxious because they didn't see Brother Xiang, and hurried over now, Liu Yao rushed to ask, "What's wrong with Brother Xiang?"

"He's tired and resting at the back," he patted the young man on the shoulder, "Thank you both for going to accompany him."

Liu Yao was puzzled, and was about to ask again, when Xia Shuya pulled his sleeves and left.

Zhuang Fan waited patiently for He Chen to finish his explanation, and then said again: "You'd better explain the ins and outs of the matter."

He Chen glanced at Hou Zhicheng's wound again.

The ins and outs?Even he didn't know what happened.But he could guess that the injury was on the mouth, maybe Xiang Jiayun was stimulated by what this man said.

He replied unhurriedly: "You can ask Hou Zhicheng what he said first."

All eyes turned to Hou Zhicheng again.

However, this person happened to have a wounded mouth, so he couldn't answer.

"He was not wronged by this knife. If it were me, the attack would only be more ruthless." He Chen opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Everyone is destined to walk together, and it is better to be friendly, and we don't want to argue."

He Chen gave the base team a step up.He could see that Hou Zhicheng was not very popular in the team, and even the team was on the verge of collapse, only relying on Zhuang Fan's dedication to maintain it.

After everyone present was quiet for a while, Zhuang Fan also came down the steps, "Okay. I heard some movement inside, first deal with the zombies, and then clean up the house. I'll spend the night here tonight."

After speaking, he looked at Hou Zhicheng and the other three who were cleaning the wound, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Heal your wound well, come to me when you can talk."

Everyone gradually dispersed and went to do their own things.He Chen was about to leave when Zhuang Fan stopped him.

The two walked outside the gate, and the surroundings were quiet.Zhuang Fan took out a cigarette, lit it expertly, took a deep puff, and waited until the smoke was slowly exhaled before handing out the half-pack of cigarettes, "Take a puff?"

He Chen actually knows how to smoke, he learned it when he was young and frivolous, but he didn't have an addiction, and he gradually stopped smoking.

He lowered his eyes for a while, pulled out one abnormally, waved his hand to reject the lighter offered by Zhuang Fan, and just kept it in his mouth.The bitterness of the tobacco escaped from the filter and saturated his taste buds.

For so many days since the end, he hardly allowed himself to wallow in negativity.Even the night when Xiang Jiajun was infected and passed out, He Chen just hugged him calmly, trying his best to feel the still calm breathing of the other party.

But at this moment he suddenly felt a little depressed.Perhaps it was because Xiang Jiajun was so weak that he couldn't even stand up.He was calm and composed in front of Xiang Jiajun along the way, but actually he was hiding deeper and deeper fears.

In the long end, there are too many variables.He had already lost his biological father, and he didn't want to lose any more important people.

Zhuang Fan put the cigarette and lighter back into his trouser pocket, stared at the vast night and said, "Tell me, what's going on with Xiang Jiayun?"

For a moment, He Chen didn't know whether the other party was asking how Hou Zhicheng was scratched by Xiang Jiajun, or what happened to Xiang Jiajun in the research institute.But he doesn't know about the former, and he can't say about the latter.

He just bit his cigarette and said vaguely: "Xiang Jiajun won't take the initiative to provoke others, he is not that kind of person. As for that Hou Zhicheng, you are friends with him, don't you know what he is like?"

Zhuang Fan was speechless for a while, and rubbed his eyes with dry palms after a while to keep himself awake.For him, the nicotine has almost lost its effectiveness.

"I just want to find a place to live in peace and stability, why is it so difficult?" He was almost talking to himself, and he didn't know whether he was questioning himself or God.

He Chen smiled without emotion, "Can't you go alone, you have to take so many people with you."

Zhuang Fan shook his head and smoked silently.After the spark burned to the butt of the cigarette, he threw it on the ground and stomped on it, and his tone returned to his usual confidence, "You and Xiang Jiayun should pay attention, don't make trouble again, I also want to save face."

He was noncommittal.It seems that other people's face has nothing to do with him.

The man took two steps back, then fell back and reminded: "Be careful, you two, monkeys are very vindictive."

It's the most benevolent and righteous to say so, and the subtext is that even if Hou Zhicheng retaliates, he won't care.

He Chen nodded, and drank an unlit cigarette outside the door for a while.Finally, he looked up at the moon that had never changed, put away the cigarette, and walked in.

The two minors were still by Xiang Jiayun's side, sitting on the ground on one left and one on the right.

From a distance, Xia Shuya could still hear Xia Shuya talking to Xiang Jiayun, with a sincere tone: "Brother Xiang, I would have been with you if I had known, one more knife from Hou Zhicheng, and let his rotten mouth chatter."

Then the boy agreed: "I'll throw him into the lake in the scenic spot again."

This time He Chen finally smiled sincerely, and then heard Xiang Jiajun speak, his voice was weak, but his tone was raised: "Instigating minors to commit crimes together, then I'm not going to make it worse."

He walked to the corner and softly called Xiang Jiayun's name.The young man turned around and, as usual, took a look at him to make sure there were no injuries on his body.

"No injury, this is the end of the story." He walked up to the young man.

Xiang Jiajun nodded in a daze, but her expression was still preoccupied.

"You two go in first, and try to get a good room." He Chen began to chase people away calmly.

Liu Yao was active this time, but not because he understood the meaning of driving people away, but because he was anxious to grab the room.Standing up abruptly, she dragged Xia Shuya and ran away.

Looking at their hurried backs, Xiang Jiayun couldn't help laughing, "The two kids are so fun."

"You are only five or six years older than them," he poured a bucket of cold water on, "you call someone else a child?"

Xiang Jiayun raised his head and frowned, and stretched out his hand, "Then you are only five years older than me, and you are disrespectful, shameless. Pull me up quickly."

He Chen really wanted Xiang Jiajun to see what it was like to be disrespectful, but he held back, held the young man's hand peacefully, and pulled him up from the ground.

Xiang Jiayun still couldn't stand firmly, and fell on him as soon as he got up, and subconsciously, he hugged his arm tightly like a driftwood.After a while, I was stunned, raised my head and smiled awkwardly, "I don't want to take advantage of it, please borrow my arm, and I will return it later."

He Chen bent down to help up the tattered suitcase, although it fell from the second floor, but luckily it didn't leak, only two rollers were broken.Holding the suitcase in one hand, he calmly said: "It's okay to wipe, you can do whatever you want."

As soon as the words fell, Xiang Jiayun's ears turned red again.

Still so nonchalant.

Instead of entering the hostel, they went back to the parking lot first, put a box of supplies in the car, and then turned back.

Xiang Jiayun's whole body was sore and weak, and he refused Teacher He's proposal to hug him, leaning almost his entire body weight on the other person, dragging his two legs and walking slowly.The two of them stepped on the bluestone road in the ancient town, bathed in the soft moonlight, as if they really came to travel.

Even if there might be living people and zombies hidden in the shops on both sides, they didn't bother to worry about it.He was used to doing whatever he wanted, not to mention the current atmosphere made him distracted.

"Mr. He, how did you chase people before?" Xiang Jiayun asked a rare topic.

He Chen was really surprised, "Are you sure you want to hear this?"

He nodded innocently.

"You..." Teacher He laughed, but he thought about it seriously, and replied, "I haven't chased after you. The two of you knew it well, so we got together naturally."

"Oh." Xiang Jiayun asked herself, but after hearing it, she felt sour in her heart, and said after a pause, "Then your way of chasing me may be a little clumsy, compared to the previous attitude...it seems nothing different."

He spoke more and more quietly, and finally lowered his head.

If you want to chase, just chase after him, everyone knows that he is dull in this regard, and he chases so calmly.

"According to your way of pursuing, when will I be enlightened, Mr. He."

He Chen's footsteps stopped, and he had to stop even with him.

"Have you seen the moon?" A deep voice sounded from the side, but there was a gentleness only revealed to him in the calmness.

Xiang Jiayun raised his head, a little dazed, "I saw it."

He Chen leaned down slightly, and was at eye level with him, "From now on, every time you see the moon, you can ask me for a gift."

His brain was down, and the young man who had never experienced feelings was swept away by the wave of gentleness. It was hard for him to regain his reason and think about the gift.When he was thinking, He Chen kept this movement, looking into his eyes without blinking.

Under the moonlight, everything in the world seemed to stop functioning.

"I..." Xiang Jiayun plucked up his courage and whispered tentatively, "Then can you hug me again?"
