In this silver-gray car, Xiao Ran is the only one whose voice can be called immature.
I saw little Loli lying at the window, pointing outside with her finger and saying.
"That's right...why isn't there even a zombie outside the town..."
Zhang Tiehua scratched his head and felt very strange.
"Isn't it a good thing that there are no zombies? The journey is smooth and we can reach our destination smoothly."
Gu Changfeng didn't think as much as Lu Yu did, and his lack of experience made him make a wrong judgment.
For a survivor who has just left civilized society, if he sees a clean town without zombies in this apocalyptic world, he will happily think that he has found paradise and run in without thinking.
But for Lu Yu and others, it is almost impossible for an oasis zone without zombies to exist.
Even if it exists, there should be obvious traces of manual cleaning.
It can never be like the small town in front of you, so quiet as if everything happening outside has nothing to do with it.
"Should we take a detour?"
After pondering for a moment, Lu Yu finally turned his questioning eyes to Xiao Ran.
"Is this lolicon crazy, asking a nine-year-old child such a thing?"
Gu Changfeng naturally noticed Lu Yu's inquiry and muttered angrily in his heart.
But before he had time to speak, he heard Xiao Ran say crisply.
"No, Uncle Lu Yu, look over there!"
As he spoke, Xiaoran poked at the window with his finger.
Several people in the car followed the girl's gesture and soon discovered a string of clear tire marks outside the town.
"Has a car been here?"
A common thought suddenly appeared in the minds of several adults.
"Not only have I been here, but I have also left the town!"
Xiaoran's eyes flashed with intelligence, and there was a proud smile on his face.
"Judging from the indentations on the edges of the tires and the clarity of the tread on the ground, more than one car came out of the town not long ago."
"But aren't the cars all with those tires? How do you know that these cars are not driving into Yunlong Town, but driving out of the town?"
Zhang Tiehua was outspoken, regardless of the fact that the person he was facing was just a nine-year-old girl, and he directly raised the questions in his heart.
With his eyesight, he could only see a series of ruts on the ground.
To judge the direction of a vehicle based on the rut marks alone, in this Northeastern man's opinion, only a professional criminal investigation expert could do it.
I thought that Xiao Loli would be speechless, but unexpectedly, Xiao Ran just smiled proudly, and then answered as if he was endorsing her.
"The traces of mud and sand on both sides of the tire are turned towards the outside of the town, and the traces of the rut are also to the left. The most important point is that there is a small turn in this rut, and the rear wheel has drag marks, which will Most of the sand on the ground is pushed toward the left.”
After listening to little Loli's explanation, Zhang Tiehua's mouth opened into an O-shape unconsciously.
"Damn it, where did you see it from...the direction of the churning of the sand...the ruts and turns...do children today know so much?!"
"Yes, Xiaoran, how do you know this..."
Gu Changfeng also cast a doubtful look at Little Loli.
As a policeman, he knew very well that the judgment methods mentioned by Little Loli were not fabricated, but real.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
A practical and useful tool for solving crimes.
But how does the nine-year-old girl in front of me know this? You know, when Gu Changfeng was as old as the other party, he was probably still playing in the mud in the fields...
Lu Yu's heart suddenly lifted when he saw the doubtful expressions on Gu Changfeng and Zhang Tiehua's faces.
He accidentally let it slip before, but it was not easy for Xiao Ran to come back.
It didn't take long, why did Xiaoran take the initiative to reveal his specialness?
Could it be that the story just now was so perfect that it made this little girl feel proud? Are you cocking your tail proudly?
Now with Gu Changfeng's character, he will definitely have to break the casserole and get to the bottom of it.
By then, the fact that Xiao Ran is a brain enhancement type will no longer be a secret, and all the previous concealment will be in vain!
Just when Lu Yu was worried, the smile on the little Loli's face became even stronger, with a proud look on her face, and a hint of contempt in her blue and black eyes.
"Uncle Gu Changfeng, haven't you ever watched Duck Detective when you were a child? Aunt Mei explained every detail of solving the case very clearly..."
As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence in the car.
Everyone stared at the little lolita in the passenger seat with their mouths open, including Lu Yu.
If everyone's hearts could be visualized at this moment, hundreds of happy alpacas might be running past outside Yunlong Town.
Duck detective? !
what is that? It's a cartoon!
From what this little loli says, did she learn detective knowledge from cartoons?
"Well... I... I watched two episodes when I was a kid... but I was put off by the terrifying atmosphere in the plot..."
After being silent for a long time, Gu Changfeng covered his forehead and answered with some embarrassment.
"So... everything this little girl says is true? Can you really tell the direction of a vehicle from the ruts?"
Zhang Tiehua was completely shocked. Compared with the little Lolita, he felt like he had lived like a dog for the past thirty years.
"Yes, the method Xiaoran mentioned is indeed a judgment method often used in general criminal investigations, but I still have a question..."
Gu Changfeng removed his palm from his forehead, stared at the girl's face seriously, and spoke slowly.
"We are not close to the rut, and you can observe so many details through the car window that ordinary people cannot observe just sitting in the car. How on earth do you do it?"
"It's normal for a child to have good eyesight..."
Lu Yu answered quickly and forcibly dispelled Gu Changfeng's doubts.
"Hey, then since there are cars coming out of the town, it means the town is safe, otherwise no cars can come out, right?"
"Yes, the ruts outside the town are very new and should not have been left for more than twenty-four hours, indicating that a vehicle had just left the town not long ago."
After hearing Xiaoran's explanation that his eyesight was very good, Gu Changfeng originally wanted to ask something else, but when Lu Yu interrupted him, he stopped insisting and spoke sternly.
"So it's good to watch cartoons occasionally. You're right, Officer Gu, whose professional skills are not very good."
The topic always ended with Lu Yu's venomous tongue. Amidst Gu Changfeng's curses, the silver-gray car got back on the road and drove towards the interior of the town along the not-so-wide road.
As seen from the outside, the town was empty. Except for the buildings of different heights on both sides, there was not even a single moving animal in sight.
"What's going on in this town? Why can't we really see a single zombie... Could it be that all the residents in the town have been evacuated?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Zhang Tiehua stretched his neck and looked out the window curiously.
"Evacuate them all? It's unlikely... I remember that the total population of Yunlong Town is about 150,000..."
Gu Changfeng said with some uncertainty.
Yu Libo had been huddled in the corner. When he saw the situation in the town, the worry on his face became more obvious.
He now very much hopes that the speed of the car can be slower, because then, he will be able to see the result that is enough to make him collapse later.
Neither Lu Yu nor Xiao Ran spoke.
Among them, the young man was concentrating on driving the vehicle, always alert to possible threats around him.
Xiaoran opened her eyes wide and walked back and forth between the buildings carefully.
The two of them knew that there was definitely something wrong in this town.
Just imagine, how could the population of 150,000 disappear completely within ten days after the disaster broke out.
"Is it possible that the residents in Yunlong Town are locked in their houses, so even if they turn into zombies, they can't sneak out to the streets."
Zhang Tiehua suddenly thought of a possibility.
Because in his understanding, the zombies infected by the virus have very low intelligence and will only act according to their bloodthirsty instincts.
If the residents of the town were locked in their houses before being infected, they would never be able to open the door and come out after turning into zombies.
"You mean, all the residents of the town have turned into zombies, and zombies can't open the door?"
Gu Changfeng quickly understood what Zhang Tiehua wanted to say and speculated along the other party's train of thought.
During the time he was locked in the holding cell, the young policeman was also forced to observe zombies for a long time.
Whether it's the secondary infected body that looks like a human, or the skinny zombie that mutated from Senior Sister Xiaoya.
The level of intelligence they display is quite limited.
Not to mention the ability to open door handles, they are not even aware of obvious obstacles such as iron fences.
Once they sense their prey, they will only want to swallow it into their belly, never paying attention to any obstacles between them and the prey.
"Then this is the only possibility that makes sense... If possible, would you choose a house and give it a try?"
The Northeastern man scratched his head. When he mentioned zombies, he suddenly felt his hands were empty. He lowered his head and searched inside the car, and soon found a metal roller lying on the ground.
This was a self-defense weapon obtained from a printing shop. Unexpectedly, it was kept by Lu Yu.
"Don't... I think it's better to go to the thermal power plant honestly. When we find Yu Libo's parents, we can ask them what happened."
Gu Changfeng directly rejected Zhang Tiehua's immature suggestion without even thinking about it.
Although the appearance in the town was very strange, the purpose of their trip was to find someone, not a scientific investigation, exploration and discovery.
There is no need to pay the price with your life for an insignificant mystery.
Moreover, Gu Changfeng said this very euphemistically.
In fact, everyone had a premonition when they entered the town that Yu Libo's parents were probably dead, or had turned into something worse.
And what Gu Changfeng said was undoubtedly giving the other party the last light of hope in the darkness of despair.
Yu Libo glanced at Gu Changfeng gratefully.
He was mentally prepared to face whatever might happen next...
