deformed bone

Calvin turned his head suddenly, he met Isaac's eyes, and his heart skipped a beat involuntarily.

Well, it seems that the physical communication between Calvin and Red Deer last night was not hidden from Isaac.And Isaac looked like he was going crazy.

Everything sucks.

Calvin himself didn't know why he got himself into such a bizarre family struggle.

He is already a complete adult, and Calvin believes that he should not feel guilty in any way...

But the Holden brothers are different from ordinary people after all.During the days of avoiding the Adventists and going into exile all the way, Calvin and Isaac did have a close relationship different from other families.

What's more, considering Red Deer's past identity and his personality that was not easily accepted by others, Calvin still had to back down a step when facing Isaac's anger.

He got into the car that Isaac had found, and Red Deer walked towards Han and Joyce, who looked a bit unhappy, with a subtle smile.

"Should I be handcuffed? If that makes you feel a little less nervous?"

He glanced at Han and said slowly.

Han smiled wryly.

"Oh, of course not."

He said.

"Besides, that thing can't trap you in the first place, can't it, Mr. Red Deer. Get in the car and don't be so angry-family wars are really tricky, aren't they?"

Joyce continued as he opened the car door for the Red Deer.

Red Deer gave them both a meaningful look, and then sat in.

But Joyce and Han shuddered at the same time. They exchanged glances, and neither of them missed the bitterness in each other's eyes.

"I should really let that guy Holden buy me a drink..."

Han murmured dissatisfied.

The atmosphere between Red Deer and Joyce and Han was quite tense.

But compared with Isaac and Calvin in the other car, the van can already be described as harmonious.

Isaac found the car left by the owner of the farmhouse in the farmhouse.It was an old Buick from the 90s, painted a rather nice mint green.Whether it is from the refurbished interior of the car or from the well-maintained parts, it can be seen that the old couple loves this car very much.

This is a serious and good car, but the atmosphere inside the car is like a swamp filled with muddy and heavy atmosphere-and this suffocating heavy atmosphere has been implemented throughout the rest of the trip.

During the trip down, the atmosphere of Calvin and Isaac in the car has been quite heavy.

Calvin thought Isaac would question himself in the car.

About Red Deer, and the relationship he had with Red Deer.

Calvin knew he was making a mistake.

Red Deer is by no means a suitable candidate. His gender may not be a big problem, but his identity as a serial murderer and his strange superpower of "door"... Calvin asked himself if he and Isaac switched identities, and he would probably be completely mad because of this intimate relationship.

He has been writing the draft in his heart, waiting for Isaac's dissuasion and questioning (although even he himself admits that those arguments in defense of Red Deer are too weak to be vulnerable).

But the reality was completely contrary to Calvin's imagination: Isaac was just driving normally throughout the journey, and did not ask Calvin anything about the red deer.

Although his face was ashen, his eyes were cold and piercing, even if he just looked in the rearview mirror, when he saw the van carrying the red deer, he seemed to be emitting waves of death.

But he said nothing.

This made Calvin feel even more uneasy.

It was in this harsh atmosphere that almost made Calvin nervous, they drove all the way to Los Angeles.

There were not many surprises on the road from the farmhouse to Los Angeles, and Calvin was already familiar with scenes along the way.

Chaos, collapse of order, explosions, fires, robberies...

Almost every town has more or less Adventist lunatics prowling around, the only difference is the degree of madness of the group.Of course, Calvin was sure that there must have been many of those insane people who caused chaos, killing, and all sorts of destructive actions, who were never really controlled by Joshua.

But so what?The modern civilization that human beings rely on is actually so fragile, and so is the "daily life" that ordinary people think.

Along the way, Calvin always sees only gunpowder smoke and bloodstains...

All in all, it looks like the real end of the world has come silently.

Calvin could feel that the mood of the others was getting lower little by little (this probably excluded the red deer, he had a very interesting mood about everything in front of him).

This can also be seen in the number of cigarette butts Isaac smokes in the compartment.Calvin felt a little sad. Normally, he would try to resolve the major differences between him and Isaac, but the cruel reality forced Calvin to have no breath, so that he could only silently Enduring Ai Zac's increasingly ugly face.

Oh, yes, the cruel reality - along the way, Calvin and others have also encountered many attacks, but most of them did not come from the group of Adventist lunatics clamoring for the end of the world, but in the A violent gang formed amidst a long period of chaos.

The long-term collapse of social order and chaos has caused serious casualties and material shortages.

Many people did not become crazy, but had to become morally depraved "villains" in order to survive.

Thankfully, Calvin and his team are very good at using firearms, and Aiza, Joyce, and Han are still quite mature police officers, and in the end all attacks are safe and sound.

Then, at sunset one day, Calvin accidentally looked up and saw a familiar name on the green and white notice board.

"God, we're here..."

Calvin murmured, but there was no joy in his voice.

If he was not very familiar with Los Angeles, even Calvin would not be able to connect the ruined city in front of him with the City of Angels in his memory.

Before that, no matter who it is, there is actually more or less hope for Los Angeles.

After all, there are a lot of rich and famous people here, no matter what happens here, it should be protected by the state.

But just after driving the highway in the entire area, everyone already knew that they had just given an illusory fantasy to the city.

There are no lights, no electricity, no clues that civilization still exists.

Just blood, corpses, and more corpses.

Calvin couldn't even tell whether the tragedy on the highway was caused by a car accident or a deliberate robbery (they encountered many similar ambushes along the way).

The wreckage of the car was randomly scattered on the ground. Among the twisted metal and glass fragments, there were one after another black and swollen corpses. A strange stench floated in the air.

Only the golden-red twilight illuminates this silent land.However, even the sunlight seemed to be evil, it mercilessly smeared the dazzling blood in large chunks in the ruins that had been reduced to hell.

Highway [-] to Los Angeles has been completely abandoned by abandoned vehicles as a vehicle dump.It's bad, but overall it's a lot better than the other roads that Isaac and Joyce have tried before, at least there aren't tons of cars piled up with metal, corpses and all sorts of wreckage. .

Isaac stopped the car, killed the car's engine, and pulled a long machete from under the seat and jumped out of the car.

He ignored Calvin, but Calvin followed him and jumped out of the car.

Isaac came outside the van, and he knocked on the window.

The window glass came down slowly, revealing Joyce's serious face.

"I'll check the situation first. If there are no other problems, I think we will probably abandon the car and pass."

"I will go with you."

Joyce said.

……

After a period of time, five people were already walking on the road surface soaked in black-red viscous liquid on the expressway at the same time.

They all slowly passed through many hopeless places - a fire broke out near a certain exit, all the vehicles were burnt to blackness, and so were the bones inside, some people even maintained the posture of struggling to escape, However, death and flames forever fixed them in that terrible moment; a serious car accident, no more than 20 cars were squeezed into iron blocks, as if someone crushed a hole with their feet. Like the cans, they didn't see the corpse, but that area had the most black and red blood, attracting a large number of flies to linger around there; and walking further, Calvin was shocked to see the remnants of a brutal murder At the scene, several people were put into ridiculous shapes and directly nailed to death on the roof of the car. The words "heretics should go to hell" were written on the body of the car.There was still a look of despair on the victim's swollen face, and Calvin only glanced at them before quickly looking away.He did not mistake those people for their identities as members of the Adventists, but being able to maintain their sobriety and drive away in a car represented the extreme impiety of these Adventists.

……

"You look a little bad now."

Calvin subconsciously planned to turn his head to look at those people again, but the figure of the red deer suddenly moved forward, blocking Calvin's sight.

"When we kill Joshua, things will get better."

Red Deer comforted, and then he stretched out his hand and gently held Calvin's wrist.

The night gradually enveloped the land, and the cold moonlight gently covered Red Deer's face with a layer of silver frost.At this moment, the handsome face and deep gaze of the red deer really made Calvin feel relieved.

"You recently……"

Calvin spoke involuntarily.

"What's wrong with me recently?"

The moment Calvin was about to answer Red Deer——

"Crack-"

A loud sound of the safety catch being pulled interrupted what Calvin was about to say. He suddenly turned around and saw Isaac holding a gun.

The muzzle of the black gun seemed to be aiming at the red deer beside Calvin inadvertently.

Calvin: "..."

Noticing Calvin's gaze, Isaac said blankly: "I saw a wild cat—I thought it was something else."

Involuntarily, Calvin slowly pulled his wrist out of Red Deer's warm palm.

"I'm really sad right now."

Calvin heard a groan of aggrieved.

"He's my brother."

Calvin replied.
