Survival [End Times]

346, Mutant 09

The rescue is really here! While sitting in the car following the army, Zheng Hengli felt like it was a beautiful dream, "Look, my elder sister is smiling like a little fool." Zheng's mother touched her head lovingly, and Zheng Hengli hugged her coquettishly in return.

Yu Heng looked out the window. This was his first time going out after the end of the world. The situation outside looked very bad, and everything was messy. The car next to him was also a survivor. He took a quick look and looked away.

It was still dark when the army arrived, but the headlights on the military truck illuminated the entire community. A steady and heavy baritone came out of the loudspeaker, and every word was soothing the hearts of the survivors.

"Please survivors stay at home. The troops will clean up the mutants. Please don't go out to prevent accidental injuries..." The Zheng family did not sleep all night until dawn, and then they moved their things into the car and joined the army. In the morning, at the gate of the community, the traffic was so congested that they couldn't move. In other corners, there were many survivors who were guarding their homes like the Zheng family. Fortunately, they were all rescued.

However, Yu Heng still felt a little worried. Zheng Hengli said that mutants can change back to the appearance of ordinary humans. After several encounters with several mutants, he also confirmed this news. I won’t say much about the mutants he killed before. They all looked weird, and the last mutant he killed died in the appearance of an ordinary person.

The male mutant smashed the anti-theft door of the Zheng family with a hammer. Perhaps he looked down on the three women in the Zheng family. He lazily smashed the door in the form of an ordinary person, saying a mess of dirty words. He stood behind Zheng's mother through the anti-theft door and could still smell the stench in the other person's mouth. It was the smell of raw human flesh and blood soaked in the mouth, and it was not cleaned in time. It was nauseating. That was the first mutant in the form of an ordinary human that Yu Heng killed, which confirmed that mutants can indeed transform freely.

It is true that mutants appeared a month before the end of the world, and the general population of the country disappeared, but no clues could be found. If the mutants continue to report after committing crimes, or continue to go to the streets with baskets of vegetables, blending into the sea of ​​thousands of people and becoming an inconspicuous drop of water, it is normal for the police to find no clues.

Then the question is, are there mutants among the survivors who followed the army? Maybe in the early morning when the army horn sounded to call the survivors to gather, in some corners, mutants put on fitting clothes again, cleaned their bodies, and then changed their panic expressions after going out, and then hurriedly blended into the crowd. Is this conjecture possible?

Yu Heng shook his head and retracted his gaze from the window. There is no doubt that this conjecture is very likely to happen. For example - he looked at Zheng's father who was driving, and then lowered his eyes.

He can only pin his hopes on the army and the safe zone. They must know more about what ordinary people don't know. The state machine is not a joke, and its power cannot be underestimated. Dare to accept so many survivors into the safe zone, there should be instruments and equipment to detect mutants in the safe zone, right? Distinguishing between enemies and friends is the first step in establishing a safe zone! The inability to distinguish between friend and foe is the source of unrest.

Soon the army arrived at Chenhua Road, and Yu Heng and his team were told to stop moving and wait for the experts and professors in the military research institute.

"Hey, it's better to eat the country's food. The country will also think about you when you are in danger." Zheng Min whispered to his son: "Taotao, you should study hard in the future. Let's become professors, okay?"

Yu Heng sat in the car and couldn't see the situation outside. He only heard the dense gunfire. After that, the rescue mission of the research institute was completed and the convoy started moving again. "Mom, there is Superman!" Liu Taotao said in a childish voice, and pointed outside, shouting: "Mom, look! Superman! Can fly!"

Everyone in the car looked out, and Yu Heng was no exception. However, when he looked over, he could only see black wings turning around the building, and a pair of red sneakers could be seen in the feathers, and they disappeared together. Mother Zheng took a breath of cold air: "Is that a mutant?"

"How brave! There are troops here!" Zheng Min asked worriedly: "They won't want to attack by surprise, will they?" "No way!"

Fortunately, the journey was relatively smooth, with survivors constantly joining in. I don't know if they received the news in advance, but there were fewer mutants along the way, and the team became stronger and stronger. After six days of walking, they arrived at the safe zone.

Yu Heng was examined with the Zheng family and could not enter for the time being. "Why don't you let us in! It's dark outside and it's so dangerous!" "Yes, yes!"

The patrolling soldier shouted with a loudspeaker: "We will have a physical examination tomorrow morning! Everyone wait patiently for one night! Obey the management of the safe zone, please do not walk around and make loud noises at will, and if there is anything abnormal, please notify the patrol soldiers in time!..."

The Zheng family and another family of three lived in the tent. The sleeping space was not big, and there was no place to turn over when they lay straight. Everyone couldn't sleep. Yu Heng heard the breathing sounds around him, and they were all awake. There were patrol soldiers passing by every three minutes outside the tent, which showed that the patrol density was very high.

Later he fell asleep. Just as the sky was getting light, Zheng's mother went out to find water to wash and brought in a large bucket of water. "Are you up? Come and scoop some water to brush your teeth and wash your face. Come one by one. There is a drainage ditch outside. Don't get other places wet."

"Where's Dad?"

"Your dad went to find out how to get a physical examination. I don't know how much it will cost. Will it cost blood or X-rays?" Zheng's mother was a little worried: "There is no cash at home. Your eldest sister took it away to buy things before. I wonder if I can pay by credit card?"

Yu Heng smiled: "It should be possible. But it may be free."

Zheng's mother shook her head in disbelief: "How can it be possible! So many people enter the safe zone, and it can be free? The country will suffer a lot?"

After waiting for a long time, Zheng's father still didn't come back. Zheng's mother was anxious: "Nothing will happen, right?" "Don't worry, mom, nothing will happen. This is outside the safe zone. There are patrols everywhere. Nothing will happen." Yu Heng quickly comforted her: "Maybe he was tripped by other things. I'll go and look for him!"

"No, I'll go."

"Then let's go together!" Yu Heng said: "Anyway, it's dawn. Let's go to line up for a physical examination and find my dad by the way."

So Zheng's mother drove to the line. The line was very long and moved inch by inch. "Have you seen your dad?"

"No."

"Have you asked around?"

"I asked around nearby, and no one has seen my dad."

The atmosphere in the car became heavy, and Zheng Min was worried to death: "I'll go down and look for him! Sister-in-law, you drive and continue to line up. Help me watch Taotao." She stuffed the child to Zheng Hengli. Mother Zheng had to take care of the children of the family, so she gritted her teeth and agreed: "Minmin, you have to pay attention to safety, don't forget to go to remote places. You go to the front first and ask the soldiers there. Your eldest brother will definitely go there to get information."

"Okay, I know, sister-in-law."

Yu Heng followed him down, knocked on the window and said to Mother Zheng: "Don't worry, Mom."

He and Zheng Min walked, looked and asked all the way, but they didn't see Father Zheng. The line is too long! There are all kinds of cars in the queue, crowded and moving forward like a turtle. The two of them squeezed in and squeezed forward slowly.

The sun was getting higher, and the summer sun was so strong that it made people dizzy.

"Catch that man! It's a man-eating monster!" Suddenly there was a noise in front, and someone was running on the roof of the car, and there were gunshots. Zheng Min quickly pulled Yu Heng to the side.

"Catch him! The man in red, hurry up!"

Yu Heng looked up and saw a man in red running wildly on the roof of a car, taking huge steps and running through a car with two feet. The man looked like an ordinary person, but there was a group of soldiers chasing him.

"Hengman, come back soon!"

Yu Heng hid in the gap between the cars, holding a knife in his hand. The people in the two cars next to him did not dare to move, let alone come out, for fear of being dragged by the mutants and bitten off their necks. Few people who can live to this time have not seen mutants cannibalizing people. He clung to her tightly. The little girl's body was soft and slender. He only heard the noise getting closer and closer, and the sound of running on the roof was close to his ears.

Bang!

One foot stepped on the roof, and the vibration came from all directions. Yu Heng could feel the car he was close to shaking. The foot stepped down with great force, and the people in the car couldn't help but scream loudly. He quickly slid the knife, and the fruit knife flew out in a rotation. Because of his age and lack of exercise, and because of the bad position, he threw the knife out, but it didn't have the strength and ability to pierce the opponent's heart, but it was still effective in cutting the horse's leg.

The flying fruit knife cut the mutant's calf, because the mutant was running fast, almost sending his calf to the fruit knife.

"Ah!"

The mutant fell down with a flying leap, rolled back and forth between the cars, and then fell under the car, frightening the cars behind and daring not to drive.

When the soldiers came to handcuff the man, the leading soldier thanked Yu Heng, wrote down his name and identity information, and then took the mutant away.

"How can you be so brave!" Zheng Min was so scared that she pulled him back: "You go back to the car, I'll go to the front by myself." Yu Heng had to persuade them to continue walking forward together.

When we got to the front, there was a row of tall walls standing. The walls were very high, more than three meters high, as high as a floor. People outside couldn't see inside, so they all took numbers and lined up honestly. When they got in line, they went through the long passage and walked to the back of the wall in front to receive inspection.

"It's free, no money."

"Don't rush to line up!"

"The one who just ran out was a man-eating monster, so powerful! Such a high wall flew up, and a team of soldiers couldn't catch up."

"You are talking about the ancient calendar, they caught up a long time ago! They were handcuffed and tied up, and carried back like a pig."

"Oh, did you see it? Tell me quickly..."

"How is it, is there any news about your father?" Zheng's mother and others finally drove to the scene and asked about the news. Yu Heng had to shake his head. He was sweating from the sun, and his hair was wet. "I haven't found him. My sister-in-law and I have asked, and they said that many people came to ask, and they didn't remember who was who. But there is surveillance, and we can watch it after reporting the missing."

Zheng's mother was anxious: "Then let's call the police! Report the missing! If he is missing, you can always show us the surveillance, right?"

Zheng Min cried and said, "Xiao Man and I have seen it." Many people reported missing, and they waited for a long time before it was their turn to watch. "The surveillance here did take a picture of my brother, but then he disappeared. The police said that it was because the person left the surveillance range. There was no surveillance on the road we came from, so I don't know if my brother encountered an accident when he walked back..."

The two women hugged their heads and cried for a while, but there was nothing they could do. They could only comfort themselves: Maybe he got lost? Or maybe he met an acquaintance and chatted and forgot the time? Wait! Wait for the person to come back by himself!

Yu Heng had some guesses in his mind. He looked at the wall in the distance, and the person behind was undergoing a physical examination. It is always possible to tell whether it is a human or a ghost.

"Strange, there was no such thing in my previous life." Zheng Hengli couldn't help muttering, not realizing that she had let the cat out of the bag. Yu Heng pretended not to hear and asked, "Sister, what was there in your dream?"

Zheng Hengli bit her lip, bit her finger when it hurt, and said nervously, "No, no!" She said, "There is no such thing! Register, write your name and report your identity information, and then move in. There is a blood test, but nothing can be found, and then it is not tested..." From her words, Yu Heng learned that when Zheng Hengli moved into the safe zone in her previous life, there were no walls set up as partitions for physical examinations. At first, there was a blood test, but the blood test could not identify mutants, and later even this item was cancelled.

This is actually a good thing. It depends on the situation. The new identification method is very effective, otherwise we would not have encountered mutants fleeing just now. Zheng's father - would not have disappeared.

What exactly is the inspection method? Yu Heng is looking forward to it.
