QT: Have Grievances? CAWHYC-Ch11

 

CHAPTER 11 - Tit for Tat

Sun Wang is a social expert. Twenty minutes later, he returned to their car and said with a bad expression:

"The reason the convoy was faster than our group was because half of the convoy was abandoned! Among the three military trucks that left our yard, the last one was besieged by zombies, and some people were injured. These people mutated into zombies halfway through the journey, and then the whole convoy was in chaos!"

After Sun Wang finished speaking, he patted his chest with lingering fear, then continued:

"Fortunately, Sister Lianyi acted decisively. We turned into a small alley and left. The cars following us all came out. About half of the cars following the convoy were swamped by zombies, and many of the young soldiers were scratched.

They were discussing how to deal with the people who were scratched, and Yun Rou ran over and said that she saw with her own eyes that the people who were scratched in the car turned into zombies half an hour later. For everyone's safety, they were asked to deal with those soldiers as soon as possible."

Sun Wang said with a very regretful expression. Those young soldiers were very young, and about the same stature as him.

"You guys wait in the car, don't be too nice, I'll go take a look."

Wu Lianyi gave some instructions and walked directly towards the group of soldiers.

Yun Rou noticed her as soon as she came up, and her face changed immediately, but then she eased her expression again. Now that they are in front everyone, she thought the other party wouldn't dare to do anything. She just leaned towards the team leader, Zhao Chonglin.

"Ma'am, please stay in your car, we'll be leaving at any moment."

A young soldier stopped Wu Lianyi.

"I'm meeting your captain. I have important information to tell him regarding your injured comrades."

Wu Lianyi said with a serious face.

The young soldier was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Lianyi again to make sure that the other party would not pose a threat, and then moved out of the way.

Wu Lianyi walked straight over and said to the tall man who seemed to be the captain:

"Captain, don't listen to that woman, otherwise you'll regret it."

Lianyi's words attracted the attention of the entire team. Yun Rou's face twisted for a moment, and then she said angrily:
"Wu Lianyi, what do you mean? I didn't do anything, why are you targeting me so much!"

"Because you're not telling the truth! If a person who is scratched or bitten does not mutate immediately, they may survive this obstacle and have a chance to awaken their special abilities."

As soon as Wu Lianyi finished speaking, Zhao Chonglin's eyes immediately lit up and he asked directly:
"Madam, is what you said true? Do you have any basis for it?"

"Yes! I am the proof! This Yun Rou next to you was my best sister and colleague. When the apocalypse came, my fiancé ran away with her, leaving me to deal with the zombies. After being scratched by zombies, I survived and even awakened my special ability.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked over and easily lifted up the front of a military truck, which startled the young soldier sitting in the cab. When he found that the captain was there, he withdrew his hand from the holster on his waist.

The situation here immediately attracted the attention of the people around, especially the soldiers and those in the crowd who had awakened special abilities.

Yun Rou bit her lip and said innocently:
"Captain Zhao, I didn't know that one could survive after being scratched. When I was in the truck, I saw with my own eyes that the person who was bitten turned into a walking zombie after about half an hour, and started attacking people around him. Because we didn’t take precautions in advance, so many people were killed and injured.”

Zhao Chonglin nodded after hearing this. After all, he was in the second car at the time, and he was the one who dealt with the zombie that rushed into the vehicle in front. However, if his soldiers had a chance of survival, he was still willing to give it a try.

"It also depends on the person. Your physical fitness is different from that of the general public, so your chances of making it through are higher."

Lianyi did not deny Yun Rou's statement. She just wanted to disgust the other person and not let her have the opportunity to get close to anyone with strength and power.

Zhao Chonglin was obviously more willing to believe Wu Lianyi's statement. Perhaps someone could really survive.

"What should we do?"

"Find someone to control them individually, find familiar comrades to talk to them and encourage them to persevere. The rest depends on their own immune system."

Ripple said very simply. 

Zhao Chonglin felt that he was asking unnecessary questions, so he nodded to the person next to him, and then thanked Wu Lianyi.

“You’re welcome, you were injured trying to save others, otherwise with your skills, you wouldn’t have been scratched so easily.

Captain Zhao, let me remind you one more thing. There are already a lot of people gathered at this rendezvous point, which will attract zombies. Don't wait for everyone to arrive before setting off. It's best to arrange for those who have rested to go to the resettlement point in batches. "

"Okay, I understand!"

Wu Lianyi then turned her head and looked at Yun Rou with a smile, but that smile made Yun Rou feel particularly uncomfortable.

Seeing that her goal was achieved, Wu Lianyi went straight back to her car and said to Sun Yi:
"Let's set off and head to the resettlement site overnight!"

"Sister Lianyi, aren't you going to join them?"

Sun Wang asked directly.

"It's no longer safe here!"

Sun Yi answered her stupid brother's question.

Sun Yi had been frowning before Wu Lianyi got into the car. After listening to Lianyi's instructions, she immediately started the car, turned the car around, and left the meeting point, driving to the resettlement point mentioned in the broadcast.

Some people seemed to have sensed the uneasiness as well. When they saw someone taking the lead to leave, the brave ones also started their cars and followed the departing vehicles.

Others saw the sun setting and knew that the road would be difficult to travel at night and it was very unsafe without the escort of the army, so they could only wait patiently.

Zhao Chonglin also noticed Wu Lianyi's departure. After watching her leave, he summoned the team leaders and discussed leaving in batches.

Just 40 minutes later, another squadron that had also received the task of assisting masses in evacuation drove towards the meeting point at full speed in a panic, shouting loudly through the intercom:

"Zhao Chonglin! Captain Zhao! Hurry! Arrange for people to leave here immediately! There is a wave of zombies following us, and their speed is getting faster and faster! Act quickly!"

The other party's voice was broken due to shouting, which showed that the situation was very critical.

Zhao Chonglin's expression changed, and he immediately took the transceiver and asked:
"How far are you from the zombie group behind you?"

"More than two kilometers!"

"Noted, we are organizing the people at the meeting point to leave in batches. Before that, try to delay for a short while, we'll go over to support you!"

"Copy that! As soon as possible!"

Then the communication between the two parties was disconnected.

Vice Captain He Hongming immediately said:

"It will take us an hour for everyone to evacuate!"

"Too long, speed up! Otherwise Gong Hai and his men will be wiped out!"

Zhao Chonglin gritted his teeth and said.

Fortunately, they listened to the strong woman's advice, otherwise they would be the ones in a tough battle now.

"A-choo!" Wu Lianyi sneezed and then rubbed her nose. Someone was thinking about her.
