Chapter 0825 Missing Case
825
The air in the apocalypse is as fresh as ever. Although it is winter, the sun has risen very high at this time, which brings a touch of warmth to the colder air.
When Lu Ya's huge body fell from the sky, the group of people gathered were immediately frightened, and they all hid behind their leader. Only the woman who was kneeling on the ground crying seemed not to have seen Lu Ya's arrival at all. I almost fainted from crying.
Qin An also arrived nearby at this time and hid himself more than 500 meters away. He didn't really want to meddle in other people's business, because with Lu Ya coming forward, it seemed that he didn't need to show up.
There were almost more than three hundred people in that group, including men and women, old and young. The so-called "younger" is not actually a child who is too young. Qin An visually estimated that the youngest among them should be around thirteen or fourteen years old.
What Qin An was more concerned about was their leader, a middle-aged man who looked very ordinary.
Qin An wore a multi-colored stone ring on his hand, so he could tell that the middle-aged man's mutation level should be five.
Level five mutants are not rare in the apocalypse, so what Qin An paid more attention to was the person's skin color. It was a bloodless skin, just like that of a zombie.
At this time, the giantess Lu Ya had already spoken to the group of people.
"I am a hero with the title of King in Tibet. I am passing by here so I came to take a look.
That woman who is about to faint from crying, stop crying. What wrongs have you suffered? Tell me and I can help you make the decision if you are being bullied!
Hum, there are too many people who bully the weak in the last days. "
Lu Ya's body was huge, and her words were also very loud.
The woman finally noticed Lu Ya's presence. When she raised her head and looked at Lu Ya, she was as startled as everyone else. She even forgot to cry!
The appearance of a 100-meter giant will naturally have a certain deterrent effect.
The leader of the group was also raising his head at this time, trying to see Lu Ya's face clearly. The expression on his face was still calm, and he didn't seem to be too shocked by Lu Ya's huge body. Qin An felt more and more that this leader should have a great background, at least he would not be as ordinary as his appearance.
The woman's consciousness finally recovered. When she heard the giantess said that she was willing to make the decision for her, a fire immediately ignited in her heart. She ignored Lu Ya's identity and stood up hard, raising her head. She began to tell her story hoarsely.
The woman's name is Wang Qinfang, and the man she accuses is named Wu Zhongguo.
Wang Qinfang is thirty-five years old this year, and can be considered a person from the pre-apocalyptic era.
For the past five years, she had been living with her husband at the border of Lianghu and Xijiang provinces. That was her home before the end of the world. Chinese people will always miss their homeland, so after the zombie territory was formed, many people returned to their hometowns from various large gathering places to rebuild their homes and live in peace.
Until three months ago, a wave of zombies raided the small village where Wang Qinfang lived. Almost all the six families in the village, more than 20 people in total, were killed. Only Wang Qinfang escaped with her three-year-old daughter.
Her husband and two other older children died, which made Wang Qinfang very sad, but she could not let herself be immersed in this sadness because her three-year-old daughter still needed her to continue to take care of her.
In this way, during the subsequent escape, Wang Qinfang met the group led by Wu Zhongguo.
It is said that Wu Zhongguo is almost fifty years old this year, and he is also from the pre-apocalyptic era. However, he is a mutant, so he does not age, and he only looks like he is in his thirties.
Wu Zhongguo enthusiastically accepted Wang Qinfang, mother and daughter, and Wang Qinfang was also happy that they finally had someone to rely on.
At the beginning, or until last night, Wang Qinfang always felt that Wu Zhongguo was a really good person. After getting along with him for about two months, she also gained some understanding of Wu Zhongguo.
Before the end of his life, Wu Zhongguo had been traveling between China and the United States. He had a household registration in the United States, but his family members were all in China, and most of his family properties were also in China. Therefore, Wu Zhongguo was considered a rich second generation who did not cheat on his father. Not only did he inherit the family business and expanded its business abroad.
He was in the United States when the apocalypse broke out, and was later bitten by a zombie and became a mutant. After gaining superpowers, he walked back to China to look for his relatives, but in the end he found that all his relatives were gone.
A few years ago, Wu Zhongguo established a small gathering place in Sichuan Province and took in many people. In the end of the world, there is one city and one world. The functions of the central government in Tibet do not have any local binding force. Therefore, for those refugees, they mainly rely on small towns built by private individuals to live. The small town built by Wu Zhongguo Among the countless small cities in the apocalypse, it is relatively comfortable. He advocates equality between people and maintains the social form in the city as it was before the apocalypse.
The cities in the apocalypse have various social forms, including slave society, feudal society, dark society, and communist society. Each city has a different way of life.
Human nature is selfish. Without restraints, the city lords of small towns, as the highest powers in a city, will naturally plan their towns according to their own preferences. Therefore, Wu Zhongguo can make everyone in the city equal. It is really It's not easy.
At the beginning of this year, the zombie territory began to roam around. They were no longer settled in one place, which brought a devastating blow to the cities in the apocalypse. The larger gathering areas were the first to see clearly the trend of the future world. They gave up the city walls where they had lived for several years and began to move to larger gathering areas. After all, there were stronger city walls and defense systems there.
In the end, they had only two destinations, one was western Tibet, and the other was the Kowloon Mountains.
Smaller gathering places also began to move around, looking for a place to stay to avoid the tide of corpses. This was the case for Wu Zhongguo and his group. They began to wander under the leadership of Wu Zhongguo. Wang Qinfang met Wu Zhongguo and his group when they were wandering around.
Wang Qinfang's three-year-old daughter has a pair of strong legs. When she runs around, she hardly looks like she is three years old, which worries Wang Qinfang a lot.
Wu Zhongguo took good care of Wang Qinfang and his daughter, perhaps because they were latecomers and had no other acquaintances in the team, so when he found the little girl running around in the crowd again, and her mother was not around, he would Pick her up and play with her patiently.
Over time, Wu Zhongguo became the closest person to Wang Qinfang's daughter, and the little girl even regarded him as her father.
Wang Qinfang was very happy to see her daughter getting close to Wu Zhongguo. Although her husband had just died, as a woman in the last days, she knew how difficult it would be for her to live without a man to rely on. Although Wu Zhongguo's real age is much older than hers, she doesn't look old at all. If she can find such a man to follow her, then her future life will really be settled. Therefore, Wang Qinfang will be able to send her daughter to Wu Zhongguo for him to help take care of her, hoping to use the child as a tool to close the distance between the two people.
When night fell last night, Wang Qinfang sent her daughter to Wu Zhongguo's tent again, and then she took away all Wu Zhongguo's dirty clothes and went to the nearby river to wash them.
While washing clothes, Wang Qinfang was thinking about something. Now that it is almost three months before her husband's death, she should perhaps take the first step bravely and give herself to another man, Wu Zhongguo.
Because there was still some hesitation in her heart, Wang Qinfang stayed by the river until almost twelve o'clock, and then returned to Wu Zhongguo's tent with the washed clothes.
She was prepared to devote herself tonight and completely finalize her relationship with Wu Zhongguo.
But when she walked into Wu Zhongguo's tent, she was shocked.
The tent was dark, and Wu Zhongguo did not light the oil lamp.
Wang Qinfang couldn't see what was going on inside, but she smelled a strong smell of blood.
For some reason, she felt a little flustered, so she asked, "Zhongguo, is Xiao Ai asleep?"
She knew that Wu Zhongguo usually went to bed very late at night, so she asked. Xiao Ai is her daughter's nickname.
In the darkness, Wu Zhongguo lay on the bed. After a long time, he softly said: "Xiao Ai ran out, but I couldn't find her."
What!
Wang Qinfang shook her hands and the wash basin in her hands fell to the ground.
She quickly ran to the bed where Wu Zhongguo was sleeping, then took out an oil lamp and lighter from a nearby package, and lit the oil lamp.
The dim light swayed back and forth, Wang Qinfang's lips trembled, and she looked at Wu Zhongguo, only to see him lying calmly with a trace of inexplicable sadness in his eyes.
Wang Qinfang spoke again: "Zhongguo, what did you say? Why did Xiao Ai run out? Didn't you look at her? Since Xiao Ai was lost, didn't you let others look around? Why are you still lying down? it's here?"
Wu Zhongguo's behavior was very strange. He shook his head and said lightly: "No, because maybe she can't be found. Qinfang, don't think about Xiao Ai, just treat her as if she is really lost, okay?"
Wu Zhongguo's statement almost made Wang Qinfang crazy. What do you mean by treating her as if she was really lost? That was her daughter, the flesh and blood of her ten-month pregnancy!
Feeling a little out of control, Wang Qinfang quickly rushed out of Wu Zhongguo's tent and began to run around and shout in the temporary camp, looking for Xiao Ai.
When she made such a fuss, everyone in the camp was woken up. At first, everyone was quite enthusiastic and started to help Wang Qinfang to search for Xiao Ai. However, the whole night, until the sun rose in the east, they could not find Xiao Ai. The figure of Wang Qinfang’s daughter.
Wang Qinfang is desperate. She dare not accept the fact that her daughter has disappeared.
Suddenly, she thought of what Wu Zhongguo had said before and his performance.
It's so strange. Why does he tell himself not to think about Xiao Ai anymore? Why does he make himself think that Xiao Ai is really lost?
What is the mystery hidden in such words?
Thinking of this, Wang Qinfang ran back to Wu Zhongguo's tent.
It was already daybreak, and sunlight was streaming in from the open windows of the tent, making the view inside the tent much better than at night.
Wu Zhongguo seemed to have stayed up all night, but he didn't get up either. He was still lying on the bed with sadness in his eyes, just like last night.
Wang Qinfang threw herself on Wu Zhongguo, crying and asking him where he had taken Xiao Ai?
Wu Zhongguo never gave Wang Qinfang any reply.
Seeing that Wu Zhongguo didn't answer, Wang Qinfang started to rummage around in his tent. Finally, she found her daughter Xiao Ai's clothes and some faint blood stains in the corner!
