In the evening, the scorching sun that had been scorching all day finally slowly faded away.

And as the last lingering halo disappeared, the silent Urban Management Bureau immediately fell into darkness.

Tang Xiaoquan lit the brazier at the right time, and in the rising flames, several plastic faces were reflected red and red.

The survivors all had indifferent expressions, no one wanted to speak, they just sat there in a daze, as if they had lost their souls.

In this regard, Tang Xiaoquan also looked helpless.

There is no way, why is Hu Xiaodong's situation still worrying? Although his breath is no longer as rapid as before due to the joint efforts of everyone, but his consciousness is...

Shaking his head depressedly, Tang Xiaoquan stood up. The depressing atmosphere at the moment made him feel a little uncomfortable. He walked towards the entrance of the corridor, where Lao Zhao and Lao Lin were smoking cigarettes.

"Are you coming?" After seeing the figure clearly in the darkness, Zhao Yunhai immediately handed over the cigarette case he had "captured" in the afternoon.

Seeing the cigarette box being pushed, Tang Xiaoquan hesitated for a while, and finally took one out.

But he didn't ignite it, but slowly put it to the corner of his lips.

As for why it didn’t ignite, the reason is actually very simple. In short, it just means two words: Quit!

After all, resources are scarce in the last days, medical equipment is scarce, and no one knows how long it will last.

Therefore, Tang Xiaoquan does not want to suffer "unnecessary disasters" in the future because of this "luxury" hobby.

Lao Zhao and Lao Lin didn't pay attention to the young man's slightly strange behavior.

Lao Lin spat out the circles under his eyes and asked calmly: "Well, how is Xiao Hu? Have you woken up?"

Shaking his head silently, Tang Xiaoquan sniffed the cigarette in his hand absentmindedly, and then sighed: "Hey~ I haven't woken up yet, but the fever should have gone away!"

Perhaps he didn’t want to put too much pressure on others. After hearing Tang Xiaoquan’s slightly weak reply, Lin Junfu tilted his neck slightly, and then affirmed: “Well, it’s good that the fever is gone. The fever is gone, which means Xiao Hu His body is currently recovering. It's a pity that we can't give him infusion at the moment."

At this point, Lin Junfu thought for a while, and then said: "Who is responsible for cooling down Xiao Hu now?"

"Chaozi and Xiaowen!" Tang Xiaoquan answered truthfully.

"Well, you... like Xiao Tang, let them feed Xiao Hu some water with a spoon and see how he reacts. If he can swallow on his own, use this method to replenish Xiao Hu's water." After saying that, Lin Junfu seemed to be worried. I don't think it's appropriate. After all, although Wang Qiang has a good heart, due to his personality, his work is still relatively rough.

So for the sake of completeness, Lin Junfu simply put out his cigarette butt, stood up and said, "I'd better go in person, let's go! Let's go there!"

Leaving Lao Zhao alone on duty at the intersection, Lin Junfu led Tang Xiaoquan back to the ward.

Don't tell me, Lao Lin's method seems a bit "weird", but the actual effect is really good. At least Hu Xiaodong, who has been "sexing" for nearly a day, finally has the opportunity to accept Qing Shui's "benevolence".

For a person like him who has a persistent high fever and severe dehydration, this is undoubtedly an extremely important and critical matter.

"Okay! Everyone has seen it! Just use this method to feed Xiao Hu water. Let's all work harder tonight. We will work in groups of two in shifts. Each group lasts for half an hour. I believe that as long as we persist for one night, Xiao Hu should be able to I can wake up!"

"That's right! It can definitely be done!" Tang Xiaoquan agreed, almost suppressing Lao Lin's words.

Of course, he was not sure about "Hu Xiaodong's awakening". On the contrary, he just wanted to use this to boost his own morale.

After all, the night is long and anything can happen.

Our side must and needs to maintain sufficient vigilance and combat effectiveness to respond to any possible emergencies.

Time passed slowly in boring waiting, during which Lao Zhao prepared dinner for everyone.

Different from lunch, dinner is mainly pasta. Of course, the pasta is actually only two packs of instant noodles collected earlier.

However, most of the survivors are currently worried about Hu Xiaodong's condition and have no intention of eating.

So after a simple sharing, this tasteless dinner ended hastily.

At night, with the bright moon in the sky, silver rays of light were swaying on the ground. The city that had been scorched all day finally had a chance to breathe. The gradually dissipating heat also made the survivors in the Urban Management Bureau feel... A hint of coolness.

Tang Xiaoquan followed Lao Lin to the first floor again to explore the situation outside. Perhaps because there was no trace of the "prey" for half a day, the animals that were originally "irritated and furious" were rarely "quiet" at this moment.

Of course, the "quiet" here is only relative. At least compared to their "passionate percussion" in the morning, the current "little fight" can definitely be called "extremely gentle".

After checking the door, Tang Xiaoquan returned to the second floor. He did not return directly to the crowd, but walked towards the end of the corridor.

He needed to find a quiet place to think over his next plan.

After all, the Urban Management Bureau's supplies are extremely limited, especially in terms of water resources. No matter how much our eight people save, the daily consumption is still considerable.

Therefore, if we don't figure out a way out of the predicament as soon as possible, death from thirst is inevitable.

Gradually slowing down the pace of his feet, as the light continued to dim, Tang Xiaoquan's thinking gradually became clearer.

There is no doubt that if you want to get out of this urban management bureau, you must get through the zombie army.

To pass this level, the current survivors only have two options.

One, facing the enemy head-on;

Second, save the country through curves;

As for facing the enemy head-on, Tang Xiaoquan threw it out of his mind without even thinking about it.

Are you kidding? There are at least a hundred zombies gathered outside the Urban Management Bureau at the moment. Not to mention others, these beasts stand there motionless and let you chop them down. You may not be able to finish them in a few dozen minutes.

So since method one doesn't work, you can only use method two.

The so-called "curve to save the country", to put it bluntly, is to use methods to attract the attention of zombies to achieve the purpose of diverting them.

But Tang Xiaoquan then thought about the observation of the terrain distribution around the Urban Management Bureau with Lao Zhao and others this afternoon.

This place is surrounded by a guardrail. It seems that the official design was "to protect the stability and safety of "law enforcement agencies."

But now the fence that originally had a protective function has become a nightmare for the survivors.

It seems that it is impossible to achieve the purpose of transferring zombies by pointing and making noise.

Thinking of the crowd of corpses gathered inside the fence, Tang Xiaoquan's forehead couldn't help but tighten a little more.

Method 1 doesn’t work, and Method 2 doesn’t work either. What should I do now?

At his wits' end, Tang Xiaoquan turned his attention to the fire not far behind him. Obviously, when things have developed to this point, everyone's wisdom must be used.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiaoquan no longer hesitated, turned around, and started to walk towards his companions.

But before he could take any further steps, he faintly heard a strange sound that seemed to appear at the end of the darkness...
