Chapter 15
Chapter 15
Zhong Hao was born in the surveillance room, the lights in other places were dim, but here it was as bright as day.
The curtains were drawn on the window, and the large screens on the entire wall were lit. Zhong Haosheng was wearing a windbreaker with his collar standing up. The collar covered a little of his chin, revealing a tall and straight nose bridge, and his slightly sunken eyebrows made his facial features three-dimensional.
With dark eyes, he quickly scanned the picture on the screen, and soon saw the old dog leading Xiang Chen out of the stairwell.
When Xiang Chen passed by the camera, he raised his index finger and middle finger together, and gestured handsomely at the corner of his forehead, showing a smile that was not a smile.
The person monitoring the screen looked back at Zhong Haosheng, Zhong Haosheng made a gesture to let him go out.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, Zhong Haosheng sat in the chair, raised his legs, and said, "Come in."
He set up a small table in front of him, raised his hand to pour wine into two empty glasses, took out a cigarette and put it on the table, and said without looking back, "Old dog, get out."
The old dog should be, and closed the door for them neatly.
Xiang Chen sat down on the swivel chair opposite the table, paralyzed as if without bones, put his hands on the armrests, and said, "How did the old dog hurt his face?"
"His home is in the county." Zhong Haosheng said, "Wife, child, and parents are gone, so if he wants to go with him, he ordered the house. Maybe he wants to die with his family."
Xiang Chen raised his eyebrows: "Not dead?"
"I just passed by." Zhong Haosheng raised his eyes, implying that he saved him.
Xiang Chen nodded, looked left and right, and found that his radio equipment had been brought over, so he sat down and turned it on, first searched the radio stations in various places, and finally heard the official communication for the first time after the accident for so long.
The radio station, which had been silent for a long time, finally gained popularity again.
Xiang Chen gestured and took off the earphones, and Zhong Haosheng sat over to listen with him.
After listening to a few words, Zhong Haosheng raised his hand to say "wait a moment", turned on the speaker switch in the monitor, and connected the microphone. After a harsh electric noise, the sound was heard in the classroom with speakers.
Yang Qing in the multimedia classroom raised his head, playing with a fruit knife in his hand, weighing it back and forth.
Tao Fei, who was sitting in the cafeteria, jumped up reflexively, then looked up, and saw the small horn above his head with the others.
The children in the dormitory were sitting together, staring blankly.
The Omega on the fourth and fifth floors came out of the door, listening to the broadcast in the corridor, Wen Chuan stood by the door, folded his arms, staring at these Os in pajamas, with dull expressions and delicate bodies, feeling complex.
In order not to irritate the zombies attracted to the outside, the radio in the playground is turned off, and people can only hear the sound indoors.
There was a sudden movement in the long-silent loudspeaker. People whispered first, and then they heard what was said clearly, and slowly became excited.
——"Repeat broadcast, repeat broadcast, this is the official public radio station, temporary official communication station. Fifteen days have passed since the virus outbreak. Repeat broadcast, repeat broadcast, here is the official public radio station, temporary official communication station. Fifteen days have passed since the infection."
——"If you are a survivor, we recommend that you collect as much power supply, food, water, clothing and other daily necessities as possible, please reduce the noise, please find an indoor place that can be enclosed, and do not move around. If you are a survivor Or, we suggest, please collect as much as possible to reserve power, food, water, clothing and other daily necessities, please reduce the noise, please find an indoor place that can be enclosed, and do not move around."
——"The 'infected' are known to be gregarious creatures, non-human, with unknown neurological or viral infections, or risk of unknown parasitic infections. Please do not try to approach or treat the infected. Their vision is very poor, but The sense of smell and hearing are sensitive, and effective vaccines are currently being urgently developed, please wait patiently. In this critical time, we need to unite and fight bravely. Please don't give up hope, we are with you."
——"The following reports the situation of abandoned cities: City C, City B, City E, City L, and City M have been abandoned, and the military has withdrawn. Repeat, City C, City B, City E, City L, and City M have been abandoned. Abandoned, the military has evacuated. Survivors who are still in this area, please leave as soon as possible, survivors who are still in this area, please leave as soon as possible.”
——"On the hour in two hours, we will report on the evacuation. Repeat, on the hour in two hours, we will report on the evacuation."
……
"Leave? How do you leave? Where do you go after you leave?"
"It's all nonsense! Nonsense!"
"What's the use of her saying this? Who wants to listen to this?!"
"The country will not give up on us, will not give up on us, they will definitely find a way!"
"Is there a way she'll still be talking nonsense?! Keep your eyes open for reality!"
The radio was still repeatedly broadcasting these messages, Zhong Haosheng turned off the speaker, and looked at the messy picture on the screen with a cigarette in his mouth.
The crowd in several classrooms and the cafeteria became noisy, blaming each other, cursing, and venting their nervous and negative emotions.
These pressures are too great for ordinary people, and the feeling of hopelessness is like a contagious virus, spreading rapidly to all people.
Xiang Chen frowned, Zhong Haosheng pointed at the screen, and said, "If it's you, what would you do?"
"What?" Xiang Chen looked at him.
"With so many people, there is no way to end the chaos. Panic, despair, loss of control, bang—" Zhong Haosheng exhaled smoke, made an explosive gesture with one hand, flicked his tongue lightly, and said, "You know how it will end Is it? If they do this, they will only ruin a good hand."
Xiang Chen realized that Zhong Haosheng already suspected that he might know something, and started to test him.
Xiang Chen looked at him calmly, and said: "No one is special than anyone else, I will tell them the truth. I am also desperate, stressed, and afraid, but we can always find a way together, people cannot live alone , trust, unite..."
"Hahahaha——" Zhong Haosheng couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing. He patted his thigh and bent down, laughing until tears came out, "Xiang Chen! At least you have studied combat for three years! What are you talking about? Words? Have you forgotten everything the teacher taught you?"
Zhong Haosheng looked at him curiously: "Hey, anyway, you were No.1 in the previous department. Where did you go after that? What did you do?"
Xiang Chen tapped his fingers on the table and said indifferently, "I started a small company myself."
"what?"
"Aerial logistics." Xiang Chen moved his fingers, "UAV logistics transportation, fast speed, fair price, leading the industry."
Zhong Haosheng thought he was joking, and was stunned for a long time, then realized that the other party was telling the truth, and he couldn't believe it: "You are in the top ten in the university entrance examination, the air force combat major is the first in the department for three consecutive years, and the total points of air map strategic command are up to me. No one can break even after graduation. You said you quit school to do logistics?"
"Drone logistics." Xiang Chen reminded, "AI control, I can control ten by myself, no one in the circle can match."
Zhong Haosheng: "..."
Zhong Haosheng stopped laughing, he pinched his cigarette, sat on the chair and leaned forward slightly to look at him: "I'm not joking with you, Xiang Chen, I don't care what you have done, success or failure, do you understand the current situation? "
There was a sneer on the corner of Xiang Chen's mouth: "What kind of situation are you talking about?"
"We have to get out of here, but," Zhong Haosheng gave out a hand, and looked at Xiang Chen gloomyly, "We are not survivors, rescued, we are leaders. We want to return as leaders, let The people above look at our strength."
Xiang Chen narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean?"
"Old Zhong's family is gone," Zhong Haosheng said, "but I still have the relationship with my father. Although they can't take care of themselves now, they can't take care of me, but as long as I show my strength, it's very easy for us to reach a higher level. Easy. Do you understand what I mean? In this case, even the top leaders will lose personnel, and the establishment of power will inevitably be reshuffled and reorganized. Do you know what this means?"
"You, I," Zhong Haosheng pointed to himself, and then to Xiang Chen, "30 years less struggle, directly surpassing our parents."
Xiang Chen rubbed his nose and sat up straight: "That's why you took in people all the way?"
"At first, I just wanted to save my life, so I used some of the techniques I learned before," Zhong Haosheng smiled. "After finding an opportunity, I intentionally recruited these people. As you can see, they trust me very much."
Xiang Chen lowered his voice, looked at him, and said with a half-smile: "You have more actual combat experience, so it's normal for them to trust you. But relying on this alone won't win people's hearts."
Xiang Chen meant something, since Zhong Haosheng was testing him, he simply showed his cards and said: "There are always people who have other ideas, there are always people who want to question you, there are always people who are eager to escape, and there are always people who want more resources, no Will be satisfied with your distribution system. And this is a school, the hardest hit area, how did you live in? Where did those weapons come from? How did you train the old dogs? How to persuade those A to work for you and take turns to take care of them dormitory?"
Xiang Chen leaned back in the swivel chair, crossed his legs and put them on the table, leaning against the heels of his thick-soled shoes.
He stretched lazily, seemingly inadvertently, but there was a sharp light in his eyes, and he looked at Zhong Haosheng: "Why do you ask them to obey the rules? How do you deal with people who don't follow the rules? Only rely on surveillance? Find out about stealing Do you ask them to write a self-criticism and then read it publicly on the radio?"
Zhong Haosheng didn't speak, he drank a glass of wine coldly, and said after a while: "Contact your father."
Xiang Chen and him stared at each other, neither of them spoke. Finally, Xiang Chen shrugged, skipped the topic, turned around and turned on the device to tune in, entered the temporary password, and quickly contacted someone from the military.
"2270 Temporary Military Liaison Group, who are you? Number? Location? Over."
Accompanied by the piercing electric sound, I could feel that the signal was very unstable. Xiang Chen connected a microphone and said: "I am Xiang Chen, my father Xiang Kun, Major General Xiang, and the temporary wartime number is 8532. It's over."
"8532, location, mission. Over."
Xiang Chen licked his somewhat dry lips, and said: "B422, 150 kilometers away from the county town, is a county town. More than 400 survivors are trapped here, including more than 20 unmarried Omegas. Apply for rescue. Over."
The other end was silent for a few seconds, and after a while, he said: "8532, please maintain communication. The situation has been received and needs to be reported to the superior. Please maintain communication, pay attention to safety, and it is over."
"Received, finished."
After turning off the mic, Xiang Chen took out a cigarette and drank it, looking at Zhong Haosheng.
Zhong Haosheng nodded with satisfaction: "They will come."
Xiang Chen snorted, with a low nasal voice, and said lazily: "Not necessarily, didn't you hear the previous report? Five cities have been abandoned, and they can't afford to lose them. If other places can be saved, we will It may not be taken seriously. There is always a first come, first come, priority."
Xiang Chen thought of Zhong Haosheng's purpose, and smiled amusedly: "Everything is equal before life and death, huh?"
Zhong Haosheng's face suddenly turned ugly, and he looked at Xiang Chen gloomyly: "You can still laugh in this situation? Don't you want to be rescued?"
"Of course I do." Xiang Chen shrugged, "I haven't been in a relationship yet, and I haven't tagged an Omega I like, so how can I be willing to die?"
Only then did Zhong Haosheng regain his composure, and he smiled stiffly: "You'll be guarding here temporarily, and you'll be in charge of communicating with that side. Is it okay?" He paused and said, "Can't you just go to your dad directly?"
Xiang Chen said: "He's on a mission, I don't want him to be surrounded by zombies."
Zhong Haosheng hesitated for a moment, he waved his hand and prepared to go out.
"Wait, I have a request," Xiang Chen said, "You release Wen Chuan first."
