#79 - Chapter 79 Note
Inside Green Source Base.
Many people watched the helicopter ascend and fly into the distance.
It carried the hopes of many.
Seeing them leave, Qin Jin didn't stay in place to wait any longer.
The plan had already been arranged.
Now, all that was left was to wait for the results.
——————————————
Shen City.
A street near the suburbs.
The sunlight at a little past 7 o'clock had just begun to shine on the land.
In just under a month, new and tender weeds had sprouted from everywhere, emerging from the cracks in the buildings and the seams in the roads.
Perhaps they were nourished by the rain of the past few days.
It was a clear day.
Not a single zombie could be seen on the road for the time being.
They had probably all hidden in different buildings to avoid the direct sunlight from the star.
Suddenly.
A series of whooshing roars echoed in the sky.
Approaching from afar.
Before long, the roaring sound was close at hand!
It was a helicopter!
Like a stone thrown into water.
The originally quiet street instantly boiled over, and all kinds of zombies that had been out of sight emerged from various buildings, looking towards the direction of the helicopter!
Needless to say, this helicopter was one of those from Green Source Base!
This was a small helicopter, with Sun Xiaohu as the pilot and Gao Qiang in the back seat!
This helicopter had an effective load capacity of over 400 kilograms and a range of 600 kilometers.
Their first destination was only less than 300 kilometers from Green Source Base, and with 100 kilograms of spare fuel, they had no range pressure at all.
Sun Xiaohu and Gao Qiang together weighed about 150 kilograms, weapons and food 20 kilograms, extra fuel 100 kilograms, and they could still carry about 150 kilograms of things.
About the weight of two people.
Because fuel consumption during flight would reduce weight, the range load could also be slightly overloaded.
Gao Qiang was the applicant and a combat member, so there was no need to waste weight to bring another person.
He was one of the first to apply besides Wang Yang, so he ran to his first destination the earliest.
His younger brother opened a mobile phone repair shop here.
In a place near the edge of Shen City, the rent wasn't too high, and he made a living here with his skills.
According to Gao Qiang's speculation, on the night of the mutation, his younger brother was likely still in his shop watching the store.
As for what he was like now, he didn't dare to think about it.
Since he had come, he should go down and find him!
He had to face the result no matter what!
With this in mind, he shouted loudly at Sun Xiaohu, who was piloting the helicopter in front:
"Xiaohu, we're here! My brother's shop is below, fly to the area about one kilometer ahead! Find an open space there to let me off the plane, and then take the zombies away! Give me some time, no more than half an hour at most. If I can't find him, I'll call you on the walkie-talkie and get on the plane at the original location!"
Sun Xiaohu made an OK gesture in front.
Then he moved the joystick, and the helicopter flew towards an open space ahead.
Countless zombies were still reaching out and grabbing at the helicopter below, but the speeds of the two were completely incomparable, and they were thrown far away before long.
After the helicopter reached the open space, it quickly lowered its altitude. Gao Qiang had been prepared for a long time, and when he saw that the position was only about 1 meter away, he jumped down!
He rolled on the ground to dissipate the force, and he quickly stood up, made an OK gesture to Sun Xiaohu on the helicopter, and then quickly ran away from this place.
It would be bad if the loud noise of the helicopter attracted other zombies here.
Seeing Gao Qiang run away, Sun Xiaohu also pulled up the plane and slowly flew away in the opposite direction from Gao Qiang.
He wanted to attract the zombies that followed away, creating a safer environment for Gao Qiang.
The disadvantages of the helicopter, as long as it is used well, can also become advantages.
Gao Qiang got out of the ground and ran away a long distance quickly. Listening to the smaller and smaller roaring sound of the helicopter behind him, he gently breathed a sigh of relief.
So far, it's been smooth.
Next, it depends on how he finds his brother.
Without wasting time.
After landing, Gao Qiang had quickly ran towards his brother's shop in his memory.
He had been here many times before, and occasionally helped his younger brother watch the store, so he was somewhat familiar with this place. It only took him a few minutes to reach the few hundred meters.
The zombies nearby had just been attracted and lured away by the helicopter, so the road was smooth.
On the side of a two-way lane, an inconspicuous roadside storefront.
He quickly found his target—xxxx Repair.
What came into his eyes was a closed iron gate, with some traces of the years and some suspected zombie scratches on it, but nothing else.
Gao Qiang felt both happy and nervous.
He was happy that the door was actually closed here, so it was very likely that his brother did it, otherwise, who would have found this inconspicuous shop and closed the door during the disaster on the night of the mutation?
Needless to say, he was nervous. There were suspected zombie scratches on it, and there might have been zombies chasing and killing inside.
And he would immediately know the result of his brother's life and death, anyone would be nervous.
He walked to the iron gate, mustered his courage, stretched out his right hand, gently knocked on the iron sheet, and whispered inside:
"A Sheng! It's me! A Sheng! Brother is here to save you! Open the door!"
He knocked continuously for five seconds and shouted for so long, but there was still no sound inside.
Gao Qiang's heart sank.
A bad feeling began to grow in his heart.
Suppressing his unease.
He continued to gently pat the iron door, and also changed his way of talking to the inside. He was afraid that his brother was really inside because he didn't believe he was coming, so he didn't dare to respond.
Half a minute passed.
It was useless to say a lot of words, it seemed that there was really no one inside.
His heart moved.
He touched his pocket, took out a bunch of keys from it, this was the key to his own home before.
But he used to help his brother watch the store often, so he also had a spare key to the iron gate here!
Annoyed that he only thought of it now, he quickly searched for the key to the iron gate in his memory.
After finding it, he stuck it into the middle keyhole, and gently turned it, a click sounded, indicating that the lock had been opened.
He suppressed his excitement, squatted down and gently pulled up the iron gate.
At the same time, he was also preventing the possible dangers inside.
Even if he was excited, he still had this quality as a combat member.
Very smoothly, the iron gate was pulled up halfway, revealing the scene inside.
A small room, estimated to be less than 10 square meters, with a glass counter in front, with many tools placed on it, and the walls on both sides were covered with posters of various models of mobile phones.
At a glance, there was no figure.
Gao Qiang felt a strong sense of disappointment in his heart.
But he still stepped into the store.
He stood in the center of the store, he had been here many times before, this was the place where his brother stayed the most.
It's a pity that his brother wasn't here.
He didn't know if he was still alive or already dead.
With a strong sense of disappointment, he continued to inspect the various objects here. These objects were all his brother's things. He was considering whether to take a few away.
Even if he couldn't see his brother in the future, seeing his "relics" would be a memory, right?
He gently walked around the store.
Suddenly.
His eyes were attracted by the only glass counter!
Because the iron door was not fully opened, the light inside was dim, and he didn't see it clearly just now. Now that he walked in and took a look, there was actually a piece of paper with words written on it!
His mind was surging, he quickly turned on the flashlight he carried with him, took down the note, and carefully checked it.
I saw that it was written on it:
Brother, sister:
If you find this place, I'm very sorry, I've already left the store. Recently, the zombie attacks at night have become more and more frequent. I'm worried that the iron door in the store will not be able to support it sooner or later, so I'm going to leave with Brother Long and the others tomorrow.
Brother Long is a group of survivors I met when I went out during the day these past few days. Everyone is trying to find a way to survive. I didn't agree to join them before, but now it seems that I have to join them.
If you come here, please don't worry about me. I may live well with Brother Long in other places in the future. I also heard that they know a good place in Guangyuan City, and they are going to go there. My brother happens to be in Guangyuan City, maybe I will go and find my brother.
If you find this place at some time and see my words, you can write down your current situation and address, and I will come back here if I have the opportunity, and I will come to you if I see it!
I hope that our three brothers and sisters can all live well!
The words on the note were not many, and it was almost finished reading here.
The last payment was written—Don't worry, A Sheng left the words.
Gao Qiang excitedly grabbed the note, and tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, one of which also dripped on the note.
He woke up like a dream and quickly wiped the note.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was not damaged.
He wiped away his tears and sighed in a low voice:
"Hey, A Sheng, why are you so stupid! If you waited two more days, maybe brother would have come here to pick you up!"
He sighed again.
He calmed down and found paper and pen directly in the store, and quickly wrote on it.
He briefly wrote about his current situation, and then wrote the address of Green Source Base, so that his younger brother and sister must go here to find him if they see it in the future.
The base also said yesterday that you can leave your address, and the current Green Source Base is not afraid of survivors coming to your door.
If anyone sees the note and comes over, and they are not relatives or friends of the people inside the base, then they will be exposed with a question.
It is also impossible to directly join Green Source based on this, and it must go through various audits.
It is even likely to be rejected.
Gao Qiang re-posted the note he wrote in the most conspicuous position on the glass counter.
He looked at the note written by his younger brother, hesitated for a moment, took out the mobile phone he got at Green Source Base and took a photo of the note, and then put it back in its original place.
Did not choose to take it away.
Leaving it here, maybe my sister will see it in the future.
He walked around the store and took a whole set of screwdriver tools. These were the things his younger brother used to use to repair various mobile phone problems.
Take this as a souvenir.
He walked out of the small shop and glanced at the inside of the shop again, then gently closed the iron gate again.
It seemed like a long time to complete everything, but it actually only took him less than 10 minutes.
It's still early from the time he agreed with Xiaohu, but it's better to leave early.
Xiaohu also has to consume fuel to hover around in the helicopter. Go back early to fill up the fuel and you can go to other destinations again.
He no longer missed this place and ran towards the open space just now, and by the way, he dialed Xiaohu's walkie-talkie.
Let him be prepared to pick him up at the open space in about eight minutes.
At this time, the morning sun was brighter than before.
Leaving this unattended small shop.
I don't know when I will come back here again.
