It seemed to be commonplace, and the bloody scenes in the corridor did not cause any discomfort. Xue Ning kept talking to Feng Jing, pointing to the corpse from time to time and asking about the battle situation.
When he returned home, he invited Xue Ning to sit on the sofa. Feng Jing took some milk pastries and put them on the coffee table.
"Sister Xue, you're welcome!" Feng Jing pushed the food forward, tore open a bag and started devouring it.
Seeing this, Xue Ning stopped being reserved, drank two sips of milk, picked up a bag of pastries and ate it.
After finishing the pastry, Xue Ning asked about her next plan.
"Continue to clean up the zombies. Now that the building door is open, the number of zombies in the community has suddenly increased. However, yesterday's situation was special. They should have gathered from several nearby buildings. Logically speaking, there can't be that many. There won't be all the residents. Don’t even close the door.”
"When you said that, I remembered that someone set off firecrackers that morning."
Feng Jing held his forehead with one hand: "I didn't see the bride and groom inside either. I can only wish them a happy marriage."
After making a joke, Feng Jing continued: "After cleaning up the surrounding area, save Wang Tao first, then open the north gate to solve the food problem, and then find more survivors to occupy a better settlement."
He shared all the experiences he gained from movies and TV series:
“The terrain of the community is still too narrow, suitable for individual battles, and the advantages of the team cannot be used. There are too many unexpected situations, and even corpses cannot be dealt with.
We also need to find ways to generate electricity. Eating cold food alone is not a long-term solution; we occupy a laboratory to conduct research on zombies, thoroughly find out the reasons for zombie mutation, and prevent the next change that may come..."
Every time Feng Jing said something, Xue Ning stood by to either add, praise, or correct. Soon, a detailed future plan was released.
The two of them lay on the sofa and rested for a while. Xue Ning asked Feng Jing about the topic that Feng Jing had been avoiding: "What are you going to do in Building 5?"
Feng Jing, who was still talking and giving advice just now, suddenly became depressed. He was silent for a few seconds and lowered his head: "Sister, what do you think?"
Xue Ning did not answer the question and stared at Feng Jing: "Are you sure?"
Feng Jing instantly raised his head, met those concerned eyes, and answered with one word: "Yes!"
After the two talked, they started carrying food upstairs. Feng Jing planned to live on the tenth floor for a while. It would be more convenient to discuss things with Xue Ning and they would take care of each other.
It would have been okay to be on the fifth floor, but unfortunately he was alone and had no bed for the first time. He didn't want to sleep on the sofa and had to choose to exercise.
too difficult!
As soon as he opened the door, Tongtong jumped over and looked at the two of them eagerly, making him want to reach out and pinch his chubby cheeks.
"Uncle has run out of mana. If he wants something to eat, ask mom for it."
Seeing her daughter's eyes turning to herself, Xue Ning could only advise: "It's not lunch time yet, let's go play with uncle first. Maybe uncle can do magic again?"
"I have a strong desire for revenge, but it doesn't bother me." Feng Jing, the king of children, muttered and happily returned to his old business.
Until night, after racking his brains and making up two stories to lull Tongtong to sleep, Feng Jing wiped the unnecessary sweat on his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.
After some operations, Xue Ning couldn't help but smile. Seeing Feng Jing bowing to her again, she quickly covered her mouth and went out. When she came to the living room, she finally couldn't hold back her laughter.
"How are you? Are you tired?"
"It's okay, it's just not the same as when I was a child. I didn't find it so troublesome to take care of children before." Feng Jing rubbed his face in distress.
"We played together when we were kids, but now we play with you. Of course, the feelings are different. Thank you anyway, Tongtong hasn't been so happy for a long time."
Lying comfortably on the sofa, she had not felt so relaxed for a long time. One can imagine the pressure in her heart as she takes her daughter to survive in the apocalypse alone.
Feng Jing hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Sister, I don't know about brother-in-law..."
Xue Ning was already prepared. When Feng Jing mentioned it, she said directly: "He and I are doctors in the same hospital. He was on duty that day. I took care of Tongtong at home. I originally planned to go out to play, but was delayed by a video conference.
I don’t know his current situation, and I haven’t been able to contact him since the communication was restored..."
As she spoke, Xue Ning's eyes filled with tears, she lowered her head and turned into water drops falling down.
Seeing this scene, Feng Jing was a little at a loss. Should he go up and give him a warm hug now?
Emboldening his courage, he took out a few tissues from the coffee table and stood up and handed them over.
Xue Ning nodded while sobbing, took the tissue, covered her face, and silently released the pressure.
After her emotions calmed down, Xue Ning went to the bathroom to deal with it and returned to the living room.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. I haven't cried like this since I was a child." Xue Ning seemed to have untied her heart, and she seemed much more relaxed.
Feng Jing then said, "Brother-in-law, you two must have a very good relationship!"
"Well, we were college classmates. We met during a class reunion. We got married when we were in the first year of graduate school. Later, we had Tongtong. It has been eight or nine years.
All in all, the happiest time was still in college. We spent a lot of time together. We were busy with graduate school. We didn't even take a few days off after getting married and having children, and we didn't even have a honeymoon.
Not to mention work, it is difficult to see each other in the same hospital, and we often take time off from each other on days off. Fortunately, we are both doctors and can understand each other.
It’s just that we feel sorry for Tongtong. Our parents have taken turns taking care of her since she was born. Our family members have also complained, saying that Tongtong’s time with us, not to mention compared with several elderly people, even the kindergarten teachers have longer than us. "
Speaking of this, Xue Ning's tone was choked again, and Feng Jing quickly comforted him: "Now you can always stay with Tongtong." After saying this, he felt something was wrong.
Xue Ning couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "You are really good at comforting people."
Feng Jing scratched his head awkwardly.
The two chatted softly for a long time. Feng Jing gave Xue Ning the key to 1401. They did not return to their rooms until sleepiness hit them.
Returning to the bedroom, he found pen and paper, braced himself, and began to summarize:
May 25, the sixth day.
Achievements (crossed out).
getting information:
1. Zombies: After many battles, it can be confirmed that they have vision, and the range needs to be determined later.
2. Survivors: three households.
Xue Ning and Tongtong (9-1-1001; number of people confirmed; safety confirmed);
Wang Tao (6-2-302; number to be determined; safety to be determined);
Unknown name (suspected 5-1-601; unknown number of people; danger confirmed).
After circling the last line, Feng Jing climbed into bed and waited for the next day.
···
The next day, at 4 o'clock in the morning, it was pitch dark, and the alarm clock woke Feng Jing up.
He raised his hand to close the door and quietly got out of bed. Feng Jing groped his way to the living room, put on his clothes and put some cakes and milk in his pocket. He lifted the bag containing the monster attractor from the coffee table with his left hand, came to the door, and turned the handle a little bit.
"careful!"
The words that suddenly appeared in his ears made Feng Jing freeze in place. It took him a long time to realize that this was at Xue Ning's home.
He turned around and took a photo with his cell phone. It was Xue Ning in pajamas standing behind him.
Feng Jing pressed his hand and the room fell into darkness again, and asked in a low voice: "Why are Sister Xue up?"
"If you hear something moving outside, come out and take a look."
"It's still early, go get some sleep!" Feng Jing did not expose her lies.
"be safe."
"I see."
Feng Jing opened the door, lifted the ax shield beside the door, turned around and glanced at Xue Ning, and went downstairs.
When he came outside the building, he walked along the green belt to the west of Building 5. Feng Jing took out a monster attractor, tied one end to a tree, unfolded the rest on the green belt, and then dodged away.
Then continue to move to the south side of Building 10, sit down against the wall, put the other monster attractor aside, and wait quietly for the sun to rise.
Feng Jing plans to place them on the west side of Building 5 and the east side of Building 6, both of which are blind spots in Unit 1 of Building 5.
Since there is a pavilion on the east side of Building 6, and further east is the other half of the area, he did not dare to act rashly if the situation was unknown.
After an unknown amount of time, after confirming that his line of sight was not affected, Feng Jing stood up and carefully avoided all the zombies he encountered. If he couldn't avoid it, he would retreat and hide and wait patiently, gradually reducing the distance from the target.
It was only a hundred meters away, and it took until almost noon before he could seize the fleeting opportunity, complete the arrangements, and leave quickly.
There are a lot of zombies in the pavilion!
For a moment, Feng Jing wanted to go around the pavilion and rush to the north gate regardless. Fortunately, his reason defeated his impulse. He just stared motionlessly. The north gate, which was so close at hand, seemed out of reach at this time.
Returning to the south side of Building 10, Feng Jing took out the pastry, carefully broke off a piece and put it in his mouth. He waited for the pastry to melt before swallowing it. It was still a long time before dark!
At around 8 o'clock in the evening, he returned to 1001, had a brief chat with Xue Ning, told her that she needed to go home to sleep in the past two days, and promised that Tongtong would make up for the debt she owed in a few days, then turned and went downstairs.
Xue stared at Feng Jing's leaving figure without saying anything. After all, the problems between them needed to be solved by themselves, and all she could do was pray silently in her heart, hoping that he would return safely!
