"Lu Yu, go and save people quickly..."
This simple sentence kept repeating on the radio, and it was impossible to tell whether the voice was male or female.
Xiao Ran glanced at Lu Yu who was lying on the ground, and a trace of worry appeared on his delicate face.
"Lu Yu..."
Finally, after repeating it four or five times, the radio returned to its original state. No matter how Uncle Ni adjusted it, there was only monotonous white noise.
"How come your name appears on this radio? And you are called to save people?"
Yan Hanben, who was leaning against the door, was already dumbfounded and stammered.
"Zhang Jike and the others clearly said before that communications in the city have been paralyzed and will have to wait two days to be restored."
"But why did Uncle Ni's radio suddenly receive a signal? Could it be that communications in the city have been restored?"
Thinking of this, Yan Hanben immediately took out the mobile phone in his trouser pocket and tried to dial his mother's number.
But it's still busy and there's no signal.
"Could it be that the radio received a signal from a distant source? But why was the content of the broadcast asking Lu Yu to go rescue people?"
The more Yan Hanben thought about it, the more confused he became. He couldn't help but cast his eyes on Shao Xiuqi beside him, only to find that Shao Xiuqi was staring blankly at the bed, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Honey, what are you doing... Damn it!"
Yan Hanben followed Shao Xiuqi's gaze and saw Lu Yu doing turning exercises on the bed.
"You, you, your injury? Are you healed?"
Yan Hanben stammered. The mystery of the radio had not yet been solved, but now another medical miracle appeared in front of him.
Lu Yu, who was lying on the bed half-dead a second ago, now got up and started turning around!
It was obviously him who carried Lu Yu from the 29th floor to the 2nd floor in the morning!
"Well, I just felt a magical power flowing through my body, and the injury healed instantly."
Lu Yu jumped out of bed while talking nonsense.
"W-what are you going to do?"
Seeing Lu Yu looking like he was about to go out, Yan Han quickly asked.
"Go rescue people. Didn't I say it on the radio? I have to hurry up."
Lu Yu acted matter-of-factly and handed the modified crossbow to Xiao Ran. He took the down jacket piled in the corner and started to put it on.
"Wait a minute, who are you going to save?"
When Shao Xiuqi saw that Lu Yu was really going out, she quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"Of course we have to save Zhang Jike and the others. Aren't those four of us the only ones going out?"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that what Lu Yu said made sense, but they always felt that something was strange and couldn't explain it for a while.
"Bring me the spare key, it's for the first floor."
Lu Yu said calmly to Xiao Ran, who nodded obediently and ran out of the room.
When Xiaoran came back, he already had a black key in his hand, and had put on a thick coat. Even his neck was wrapped with a scarf. Only a pair of blue-black eyes, blinking gaze, were revealed. Lu Yu.
"Let's go! Uncle Ni, please come down with us. We may need your help later."
"Oh, okay."
Uncle Ni responded, walked to the door, and began to put on shoes on his feet.
Yan Hanben and Shao Xiuqi looked at the three people going out stupidly, with question marks on their faces.
Lu Yu, Xiao Ran and Uncle Ni soon arrived at the entrance of the first floor. After using the key to open the padlock on the door, Lu Yu handed the key to Uncle Ni's hand and said calmly.
"Uncle, please stay here for a while. If Xiaoran and I retreat later, you can help open the door from the inside."
"Oh, so that's what happened. It's easy to talk about. I'll go upstairs and get a small stool and sit down and wait for you."
Uncle Ni smiled kindly and continued.
"But Xiao Lu, you and Xiao Ran should be careful."
"Don't worry, Grandpa Ni, Uncle Lu Yu is awesome!"
Xiao Ran on the side blinked her beautiful heterochromatic pupils and said angrily.
"Okay, grandpa, I'll wait for you to come back for dinner!"
Uncle Ni touched Xiao Ran's head lovingly, and then looked at Lu Yu seriously.
"Xiao Lu, although I don't know why you are so determined to go out, I believe in you. One request is to protect Xiao Ran and yourself!"
"Don't worry, uncle, nothing will happen to Xiao Ran even if I die."
Lu Yu had already pulled Xiao Ran out of the door, waving to Uncle Ni behind him.
"Bah, bah, bah, children's words are unbridled, children's words are unbridled!"
Uncle Ni pouted a few times behind Lu Yu, and muttered in a low voice. He kept moving his hands, closed the padlock again with a click, and walked upstairs to get the stool.
As soon as they entered the community, Lu Yu and Xiao Ran seemed to be different people, their eyes constantly looking around, extremely alert.
"Do you think this radio signal was sent by Zhang Heng?"
Xiao Ran stuck behind Lu Yu, staring at the grass in front of him on the left, and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know if it was a signal sent by Zhang Heng. I can't even tell whether the signal is kind or malicious."
Lu Yu looked at the garbage recycling bin on the right and responded calmly.
"So no matter what, you have to go and see it, right?"
"That's right."
For a moment, both of them moved forward in silence, and neither of them spoke again.
"Building 7 is ahead."
Lu Yu warned aloud and looked towards the suspended corridor to the south of Building 7.
With just one glance, he stopped and froze on the spot.
On the 12th floor, the originally neatly arranged suspended corridor seemed to have been broken by some huge force, leaving a large piece of space empty.
Xiao Ran, who was looking elsewhere, didn't notice that Lu Yu stopped and bumped into Lu Yu's lower back.
"How did you..."
Xiao Ran was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that Lu Yu seemed to be staring at something, so he followed his gaze and looked up.
This look made this little loli freeze on the spot.
"How could it be...it was obviously only the third floor that exploded, so why did the suspended corridor on the 12th floor also collapse..."
Lu Yu said calmly with a gloomy face.
"Let's go. Pay attention to your surroundings at all times. If there is any danger, evacuate immediately and leave me alone. Do you understand?"
After saying this, Lu Yu walked forward without looking back.
"good."
With a simple agreement, Xiao Ran's worried look on his face became a little more solemn, and he hurriedly followed.
Since the ground entrance of Residential Building No. 7 was not locked, Lu Yu and Xiao Ran quickly entered Residential Building No. 7 and began to walk up the fire escape.
If Zhang Jike and the others split their operations from the two corridors as previously discussed, then no matter which fire exit Lu Yu and the others take upstairs, they will eventually be able to meet them.
So in terms of corridor selection, Lu Yu simply chose the door closest to him and walked in.
Fortunately, the fire escape that Lu Yu chose happened to be the one where Xu Xiaoxiao fainted.
The two of them quickly arrived at the 11th floor. Lu Yu, who originally planned to explore the suspended corridor on the 11th floor, looked at the fire door blocked by concrete fragments and had no choice but to give up and continue talking. Together with Xiao Ran, we walked cautiously upstairs.
As soon as he turned a corner, he found Xu Xiaoxiao lying on the ground, and Zhang Jike lying unconscious next to Xu Xiaoxiao.
When Lu Yu saw this, his first reaction was not to step forward to help him and ask. Instead, he became extremely vigilant and carefully looked at the surrounding environment.
But the surroundings were quiet, and except for some small spider webs hanging on the walls of the stairs, there was nothing else.
"You stay in this corner, I'll go up and take a look."
After whispering to Xiao Ran behind him, Lu Yu immediately hunched over and walked forward carefully.
"Xu Xiaoxiao? Xu Xiaoxiao, wake up..."
After cautiously moving, Lu Yu finally approached Xu Xiaoxiao on the ground. Seeing that the surrounding situation did not seem to be dangerous, he quickly patted the girl's head and shouted in a low voice.
But as Lu Yu patted, he noticed a sticky feeling on his hands. When he looked closely, he realized that his hands were already covered in blood.
Lu Yu quickly winked at Xiao Ran behind him and motioned for little Loli to come over and help.
"How is she?"
Xiao Ran hurriedly walked out of the corner and stepped forward to check. When he saw Lu Yu's hands full of blood, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and quickly stretched out his little hand to test the girl's breath. .
"Fortunately, she probably just fainted. The wound on her head may have been caused by hitting the wall."
Xiaoran looked around. She was careful and quickly found traces of collisions on the wall, and expressed her judgment.
"Lao Zhang is still breathing, he is probably just unconscious."
Lu Yu also followed Xiao Ran's example, stretched out his hand to feel Zhang Jike's breath, and said in surprise.
While Lu Yu was speaking, Zhang Jike, who was still lying on the ground, suddenly had his eyelids trembling, and after taking a deep breath, he woke up.
"Lao Zhang, how are you, Lao Zhang? What happened?"
When Lu Yu saw Zhang Jike regaining consciousness, he quickly asked regardless of whether the surrounding environment was safe.
"Lu, Lu Yu? It's dangerous, run quickly..."
Zhang Jike's condition didn't seem to be very good. Although he woke up, his consciousness was still not very clear. He barely recognized the person in front of him, said something with difficulty, closed his eyes again, and became silent.
"I'll go...you didn't say anything..."
Lu Yu complained silently in his heart, feeling uneasy.
"Xu Xiaoxiao seemed to have simply knocked his head and fainted, but Zhang Jike seemed to have been injured and his consciousness was not clear."
Looking at Zhang Jike's bandaged arm, Lu Yu reasoned in his mind.
"And what about the other two people? How do I remember that when they discussed the grouping earlier, Zhang Jike was in a group with Zhang Ning, and shouldn't Xu Xiaoxiao be with Ma Long?"
"Why are Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Jike the only ones here now? Where are Ma Long and Zhang Ning?"
With more and more questions in his mind, Lu Yu couldn't help but look higher up. The corridor on the 12th floor was still eerily quiet, but there seemed to be more spider webs on the walls, and there was even a thick layer on the ceiling. , hanging down from above.
"What's going on? Logically speaking, the disaster broke out less than half a month ago. Why does this corridor look like no one has walked through it in a century?"
Thinking of this, Lu Yu couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Ran behind him again, but was surprised to find that Xiao Loli was pressing Xu Xiaoxiao hard, as if trying to forcefully wake up the unconscious girl.
"Um...this..."
Lu Yu was about to say something when Xu Xiaoxiao, who had been unconscious before, suddenly opened his eyes and screamed.
"Ah, ah Xiaoran? Boss Lu? You guys?"
Xu Xiaoxiao, who had just woken up from a coma, saw Lu Yu and Xiao Ran in front of him. He was obviously stunned and looked like he couldn't turn around.
"What happened? Where are Zhang Ning and Ma Long?"
Lu Yu didn't have the patience to wait for Xu Xiaoxiao to react, so he quickly asked.
When Xu Xiaoxiao saw Lu Yu's question, he seemed to react immediately and answered anxiously.
"We encountered monsters, many monsters! Ma Long went to stop the giant spider! Zhang, Zhang Ning, he, he..."
Xu Xiaoxiao was so anxious that he stuttered.
"What's wrong with him?" Xiao Ran held Xu Xiaoxiao's shoulders and tried his best to calm the girl down.
"In order to buy time for me and Zhang Jike, he went to fight the octopus monster in the suspended corridor!"
Speaking of this, the emotions accumulated in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart seemed to find an outlet all of a sudden, making the girl burst into tears...
