Virus Throne

Chapter 14. Going Home

Because he had just participated in the battle yesterday, and today was not his turn to assist in the defense, he was going to go home today.

Xu Youran chose Haihe University for a very important reason, which was that Haihe University was in Nanjiang City.

For more than 20 years, Xu Youran, who was dying of illness, was most familiar with the hospitals of all sizes in Nanjiang.

He had been away for more than a year, and he wanted to go home to take a look.

What if his father had already returned home and was waiting for him at home?

He still had a little hope in his heart.

He found a soldier outside and borrowed a set of casual clothes, a long-sleeved shirt, jeans, sneakers, standard student clothes.

When he left the barracks, he happened to meet two awakened people who were on duty on the city wall yesterday, one was a short and strong young man, and the other was an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman.

The short and strong young man's eyes lit up when he saw Xu Youran, and he took the initiative to greet Xu Youran: "My name is Cai Bing, what's your name, little brother?"

The middle-aged woman next to him also smiled and said: "I'm Cheng Lin."

Xu Youran hurriedly shook hands with the two, "My name is Xu Youran, a sophomore. Well... I should have been a junior this year, hehe."

Cai Bing shook hands with Xu Youran and said: "Off duty today? Are you going to the city?"

"Yes, I haven't been home for more than a year. I am from Nanjiang. I will go back and see you as soon as possible."

"I haven't been home for more than a year? Then I have to go back and see you as soon as possible. You can ask the soldiers on duty to arrange a military vehicle for you." Cheng Lin said.

"Okay, thank you. See you later." Xu Youran said goodbye to the two and explained the situation to the soldiers on duty.

After a while, a green Dongfeng Mengshi stopped in front of him. Xu Youran sat in the Dongfeng Mengshi and drove towards his home along the original inner ring east line.

His home is not too far from the inner ring east line. He listened to the little soldier driving the car introducing the situation to him all the way, while paying attention to the current situation in Nanjing.

When a large number of mutant beasts emerged and began to harm humans, the Chinese government decisively implemented martial law.

Nanjiang City blew up the four ring roads around the main urban area in the east, south, west and north, and artificially created a wall made of bricks, stones and rubble in accordance with the surrounding terrain.

This wall effectively defended against the attacks of a large number of mutant beasts. After nearly a year of cleaning, the small mutant beasts in the urban area no longer posed a big threat.

All humans who survived the virus outbreak were uniformly relocated within the city wall, and reconnaissance teams were constantly sent out to search for survivors.

Along the way, Xu Youran saw that almost every rooftop with a certain height was equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns. He knew that this was to defend against flying mutant beasts.

Maybe because the road they took was close to the defensive wall, there were not many people.

Xu Youran asked, "How many humans are still alive in the main city?"

"There are probably about one million left. We are basically under military control. But our main job is to defend against mutant beasts, so the local government system is still the same as before."

Xu Youran couldn't help but sigh. This was a first-tier city with a population of tens of millions.

One million people survived in just one year, with a 90% mortality rate.

After turning around Beijing East Road, it was Jinxiang Road. He exchanged contact information with the driver and asked him to go shopping. He would call him when he wanted to go back.

The little soldier probably rarely came to the city, so he drove away happily.

When passing Beijing East Road, Xu Youran found that there were more cars and pedestrians on the street.

It gradually became lively, but most of the shops were closed.

Now all supplies are directly managed and distributed by the military, as if we have returned to the era of big pot meals.

He strolled through Jinxiang Road, and not far away was his community.

Entering the gate of Xiangju Meiyuan Community, the doorman security guard was still Mr. Liu.

I never thought that the old man was in such good health that he survived the outbreak of the virus.

He smiled and nodded to Grandpa Liu, and Grandpa Liu nodded to him in a daze.

There didn't seem to be many residents in the community. His home was Room 202, Unit 1, Building A, and he came to the door. He thought about it and knocked on the door.

There was no movement for a long time. He knew that the fantasy was indeed his extravagant hope.

He took out a key from under the foot mat next to him and opened the door. A musty smell that had not been inhabited for a long time rushed into his nose.

Looking at the empty, dusty living room.

I don't know if it was choked by the musty smell or for some other reason, his nose was sour and his heart was inexplicably empty.

Ignoring the dust on the sofa, he sat down.

Thinking of the teachers and classmates who died of the virus, the people who were killed by mutant beasts in the supermarket, Dongfang Bai who left not long ago, and the father who might never go home.

Sitting in this long-lost home, tears could not help but slide quietly.

It turns out that I am still alone...

In the surging army of mutant beasts, he is an iron-blooded warrior who can turn the tide without fear of life and death!

At this moment, he is just a lonely boy in his early twenties.

He should have enjoyed a wonderful college life under the care of his parents.

But now he is bearing a lot of pain and pressure that should not be borne by him at this age.

He cried for a long time, as if he had released all the grievances and loneliness in the past year.

He went to the bathroom, turned on the faucet and washed his face, and his eyes were still red.

He found a big box and put all his few clothes in it.

Although it is covered with dust, you can go back to the military camp and wash it again.

After looking around, he found that except for beds, sofas, and dining tables, everything that could be sold was sold by him at that time. He found a broom and a rag and started cleaning the room.

It took almost two hours to finally clean up all the dust in the house.

He found another large piece of paper and wrote a few big words on it with a pen: Dad, I am still alive, I went to join the army, my phone number xxxxxxxxxxx.

He placed the big piece of paper in the most conspicuous place in the living room, looked at it for a while, then raised his hand and added at the end: I have grown up! Miss you very much!

He glanced at the clean room he had cleaned again, not knowing when he would be able to go home again.

He dragged the big box, walked out, and locked the door.

Put the key back under the foot mat. This is the place where the father and son agreed to hide the key.

When I walked to the gate of the community, I saw many people gathered around the gate of the community, and several cars were parked at the gate of the community.

Xu Youran didn't want to take part in these trivial matters, but she heard Uncle Liu's voice in the crowd, "You just say what you say, why are you pushing me?"

Xu Youran squeezed into the crowd. Several neighbors in the crowd knew him and asked in surprise.

"Xiaoran is back! It's great that you are okay!"

"Youran is back? Where have you been for more than a year?"

"Youran, where is your dad? Why are you the only one who came back?"

Although they had not seen each other for more than a year, the various experiences they had experienced over the past year made the neighbors who saw Xu Youran feel as if they had lived in another world.

Xu Youran has been sick all year round, and his father often travels on business, so he receives a lot of care from his neighbors.

The neighbors saw that he was very sick, his employer gave him food, and his family took him to the hospital. Xu Youran was always grateful to everyone.

Xu Youran smiled and greeted the neighbors while coming to the center of the quarrel.

Several men in suits were surrounded by a young woman about thirty years old. The young woman was fashionably dressed and beautiful.

This group of people was surrounding Uncle Liu and the managers of the two properties, talking all over the place.

"What's going on?" Xu Youran asked the neighbor Aunt Wang next to her in a low voice.

"What else could happen? There was a big virus outbreak, and no one knew when the situation would get better. This company called Hengshun Real Estate suddenly came to the property today, saying that it wanted to demolish and acquire land, and it was almost at a cabbage price." Aunt Wang said more and more The angrier he gets.

"The virus outbreak is so severe now, and there is also the threat of mutant beasts. Are they crazy? Are they going to demolish and acquire land at this time? What price will they give?" Xu Youran was also a little confused.

"It turns out that the house price is less than one-tenth of the price!" Aunt Wang was so angry that she spat.

"Then it's over if we don't sell it to them? Why are you still arguing here?" Xu Youran became even more confused.

"Those are the representatives of that company. They said that the municipal government is going to build a security research institute and will expropriate our land!" Another neighbor, Aunt Zhang, also came over.

Xu Youran was thinking in her mind, "The city government will acquire land? Will the land acquisition be entrusted to a private enterprise? Expansion under current circumstances? No, there is a problem here!"

"They came here today and said they wanted to acquire land?" Xu Youran wanted to confirm again.

The two aunts said together: "Even today, I don't know what the cause of the convulsion is!"

Xu Youran decided to test it out again, squeezed in and stood next to Uncle Liu.

"You are a private enterprise. It is not your turn to acquire land for what the city government wants to build, right?" Xu Youran asked loudly.

"Eh?! Xiaoran, it's Xiaoran who's back!" Uncle Liu finally reacted when he saw Xu Youran again.

Someone came in and greeted him just now. He felt very familiar. It turned out that it was Xu Youran, the sick patient who had returned.

"Xiao Ran, you are not in good health. Don't get involved in these things. The adults will make it clear to them, so don't worry about it." Uncle Liu quickly grabbed Xu Youran.

Xu Youran patted the back of Uncle Liu's hand and said, "It's okay. Let's reason with them. We can't demolish it by force."

This is the home where Xu Youran has lived for more than 20 years, and it contains the most precious memories of their father and son.

What's more, he still fantasizes about his father coming home one day.

Even if the city government really wanted to acquire land, it would have to ask Xu Youran's Dalun whether he agreed.

The extremely gorgeous young woman, with bristled eyebrows and wide almond-shaped eyes, said sternly: "Who said demolition can't be done by force? Mayor Guo personally ordered it. How dare you object?"

Xu Youran looked at the young woman's menacing posture and understood something in her heart.

Their community is close to the city government and the location is very good, so it makes sense to build a security research institute.

However, the fourth-generation nuclear bomb was delivered last night, which can be used to kill mutant beasts. This news should only be known to some people at the top of Nanjiang City.

Today, people will come to acquire land and demolish it immediately, so there is no need to think that there are big problems here.
