Chapter 47: Cleaning the Wheels
Jiangcheng is a city built on the mountain and facing the river, but every generation of leaders has set their development goals to the south, which has led to more and more ghost towns being built as we go south. The north is relatively quiet and peaceful. Many residential areas and villas have been built near the mountains. Countless zombies are wandering on the streets, and there are zombies everywhere in high-rise buildings and villas. If there are survivors, the chance of surviving from here to the mountains is still very high, but Zhang Xiaowen doesn't understand why only a few people escape from the city.
After driving for a while from the highway dam, we approached a high-rise apartment community with very high floors. The highway dam is next to it and it is close to the river.
"Stop the car on the side and start searching from here. It stands to reason that humans have a high chance of survival in such high-rise buildings. First of all, let's make it clear that those with twisted psychology should be ignored. If we have to save them, we should save those who are still human. There seems to be the metal I need in the warehouse downstairs. Let's absorb the metal first." Mofang pointed to a high-rise commercial building and said.
Zhang Xiaowen nodded, parked the car on the side of the road, opened the door, took out the submachine gun and loaded the pistol, put on combat protection equipment, and put on a backpack full of supplies.
Mofang was too lazy to run by himself, so he simply stood on the backpack behind Zhang Xiaowen to be on guard, while Zhang Xiaowen ran to the parking lot under the high-rise building at the fastest speed. Generally speaking, there are fewer zombies in the parking lot and you can find the passage to the metal warehouse. Zhang Xiaowen sprinted very fast. After kicking out a series of mud pits on the lawn, she stepped on the concrete road and ran into the underground parking lot. The dark underground parking lot with the cool wind looked like the open mouth of a monster, eerie and chilly. You could smell a stinky corpse smell, which must be zombies.
The goggles instantly turned into night vision goggles, and the picture was almost the same as during the day, and you could clearly see the dust on the ground.
"There is a zombie in front of the left, one looks like a corporate executive."
As soon as the words fell, a bullet pierced through the head of the executive zombie. The submachine gun with a silencer is very suitable for killing zombies in the city. As for the corporate executives or financial experts mentioned by the magic cube, Zhang Xiaowen was not interested. Before the end of the world, these people were elites, but after the end of the world, they were just ordinary zombies. While walking towards the warehouse according to the route on the three-dimensional figure, she shot the zombies. After dealing with seven zombies, the zombies in this underground parking lot were cleared out.
"Why are there so few zombies here?" Zhang Xiaowen asked curiously.
"Simple, this is a suburban residential area. When the zombies broke out, it was during working hours and most people drove their private cars to work, which could cause traffic jams. It was normal that there were few people in the parking lot at this time. It is estimated that most of the people in the building are full-time mothers or nannies, and there are definitely no students. When the zombies broke out, they were all in school and dating."
"Why do I feel a deep resentment? Do robots also worry about being single?"
"NO, I am just stating a fact. You should know that robots are very honest and never lie."
"Don't use those robots on Earth as a cover. Your IQ is definitely at the devil level. Instead of calling you a robot, I think you are a mechanical life with a soul, a soul with self-thinking." This is how Zhang Xiaowen has always felt about the Rubik's Cube. This kind of soul cannot be created by programming. No matter how similar it is, it is still similar.
"Soul..."
Mofang stood on the backpack behind Zhang Xiaowen and fell into thought...
Zhang Xiaowen raised her gun and fired at the wooden door, then opened the door, and a zombie with blood on its head fell out. After stepping over the zombie, Zhang Xiaowen continued to move forward along the route, shooting from time to time, and quickly replaced the magazine after the magazine was empty.
"Mofang, there are too many zombies outside the door!"
"You wait here, I'll deal with it." Mofang turned over and jumped off the backpack, climbed up the wall to the roof, roughly pulled off the blinds, opened the ventilation port, and got in, and ran along the ventilation duct to the room with more zombies.
Bang Bang Bang...
The zombies stared curiously at the thin square metal ventilation duct on the roof, and something inside was getting closer and closer.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
I saw bumps appearing one after another under the thin square metal ventilation duct, and after more than ten consecutive bangs...
Bang——
A hole was torn in the thin metal and a small thing jumped out from it. What is this? A group of zombies stared at the Rubik's Cube in a daze. Their simple brains couldn't figure out what was going on, but it was definitely not food.
Da da da da da... The Rubik's Cube stood on a table and raised its arms to shoot continuously. Although the zombies were stimulated by the smell of blood and the sound, they couldn't find the food they should attack. In anger, they directly aimed at other zombies around them, regardless of whether they were strong or not. They rushed over and bit their necks, or simply stabbed into other zombies' stomachs with their bare hands and pulled out their internal organs and stuffed them into their mouths.
The Rubik's Cube stopped firing, holding a small machine gun and standing there watching the zombies go crazy. What was this? Did it successfully cause the zombies to kill each other? Forget it, it's better to shoot them, at least there won't be minced meat and intestines everywhere.
Da da da...
There were more than 20 zombies in this room, all of them were killed. The strong smell of blood and the unique stench of zombies filled the whole room. Mo Fang was a little confused. Is it really okay to let Zhang Xiaowen come over with this smell? Will she vomit all the food she ate in the morning? Should I notify her?
Just when Mofang was thinking about what words to use, the door creaked open and Zhang Xiaowen stood at the door. Mofang then remembered that the goggles Zhang Xiaowen was wearing could detect the zombies in the room. If all the zombies were dead, of course she would open the door and come in, but... it didn't seem like a big deal, right? Isn't she covering her mouth with a scarf? It was a close call.
"Eh? Rubik's Cube, you can just kill zombies, why do you pull out their intestines? Are you trying to disgust me?"
"…………"
Even a super robot wouldn't have this hobby, okay, forget it, let her think whatever she wants, anyway, we haven't done it before, Rubik's Cube raised its head and swaggered towards the door of the warehouse where the metal was stored, but before it took two steps, its mechanical eyes immediately turned green, the floor was full of stinky and sticky zombie blood, and the two wheeled feet were all covered with it, the computer would also be disgusted, okay...
"Oh! God! My wheeled feet can't turn! Damn rotten meat!"
The Rubik's Cube, who was standing on one leg and shaking off the rotten meat on his feet, was picked up by Zhang Xiaowen and walked to a clean place. Then Zhang Xiaowen took out cool mineral water from her backpack to rinse the Rubik's Cube's feet, and the Rubik's Cube turned its wheels back and forth. Well, it felt much more comfortable now. The stupid woman is still quite considerate.
