Chapter 9: first round

After hearing what the man said, Lu Chu didn't know what to think.

Only myself can get out of the tower ...

What does this "going out" mean?

Since he realized not long ago that the man was tracking himself and letting him enter his room, everything has been moving in an inestimable direction, weird and elusive. Now, as the man said, it is possible to sort out what happened in the town before reaching the tower before dark and entering it.

Lu Chu squatted and touched the head of radish, rubbing the hair around its neck, while radish squinted comfortably to enjoy Lu Chu's scratching.

Fortunately, he is not alone.

Reorganizing his mind, Lu Chu was holding the man's hand and was ready to start again.

This one is relatively wide and straight without any detours. From what Dr. He just said at the outpatient clinic, Lu Chu can learn that he went out to find food and returned safely, and the closest place to find food at this clinic is the small supermarket in front.

Just cross a flower shop.

It seems that Dr. He is not the first time to find food in a supermarket. In this case, it shows that the situation over the supermarket is OK, and there is no confusion to the point that people cannot enter and exit safely. Of course, it is not ruled out that Dr. He is very lucky, and has not encountered the situation of "senseless" wandering in the supermarket several times.

No matter what, be careful.

At this moment Lu Chu is very grateful that there are not too many people living in this town, otherwise this street should be another scene.

As the ant colony is full of streets, the "senseless people" who arbitrarily jam and collide are horrible.

Two people and one dog walked along the side of the road.

For seven days, some flowers are still intact, while others are gradually decaying. When passing by the flower shop, the rotten atmosphere is mixed with the fragrance of the flowers, and it is sweet and desperate. Before the infectious disease began, Lu Chu would buy some bouquets here from time to time and put them in the living room. Although he could not see them, he liked their rich fragrance.

When walking to the door of the supermarket, Lu Chu faintly heard that someone was talking inside, and his hearing was always excellent. At this time, he held his breath and tried to distinguish, maybe he could get some information to let him know the road ahead. What happened.

"Did Dr. He go back ..."

"Well, go back. I gave him some biscuits and instant noodles, and gave him some snacks that the children like to eat. He left us a lot of cold medicine, alcohol ..."

"You can help as much as you can, but ... Well, if you go on like this, sooner or later you will have to eat ..."

"..."

After Lu Chu heard the general content of the conversation between men and women, he did not collect reliable information. He just wanted to use a bamboo stick to explore the road to continue, but he didn't know what had hit the top of the bamboo stick, and issued a crisp sound of "Dangdang". The whisper in the supermarket stopped instantly.

It was extraordinarily quiet inside, as if waiting for something, and Lu Chu watched its change silently.

A woman's voice came: "Is Dr. He or Xiao Jiang outside?"

Lu Chu knew Xiao Jiang, she was the owner of a flower shop.

Lu Chu still didn't speak. At this moment, he heard the man inside lowered his voice and said to the woman, "Wait here, I'll go out. If it's crazy, I'll stun him ..."

"Be careful ..."

"It's okay, when everyone can't see it, at least my ears are sensitive and move quickly ..."

As soon as the voice reached the supermarket's roll-up door, it pulled up.

The surrounding situation is unknown, and running rashly is not a good choice. Therefore, Lu Chu must deal with the people inside.

Lu Chu first said, "Hello."

"you you……"

"We are going to the center of the town. We just passed here, and it seems that we accidentally encountered something."

"That's it," the man breathed a sigh of relief. "What you came across was something I temporarily fumbled with, and it made a loud noise when I touched it. I used it as an alarm."

Even in adversity, human beings are intelligent creatures. It is normal for people to calm down and make some small traps.

"Sorry, I broke your stuff."

"It's okay, this 'alert' will always sound so many times a day." The man asked, "But this world is so chaotic. Why do you go to the town center?"

"Go find a loved one."

"So," he smiled, "would you like to sit here with me?"

"No need," Lu Chu politely refused, "time is running out, so hurry up to pass, no delay."

The man closed his eyes and nodded: "That's true, it's better to find loved ones ... but I was still thinking, if you lose your mind like those people, how can you knock you back? Then ha ha ha. "

After hearing this, Lu Chu was tense and immediately alert: "Bring back?"

"Yeah," the man sighed. "These people are just sick. We can't just leave them alone."

"I wouldn't go looking for it. After all, it's too messy outside. My wife and children are still here, but as long as I get to the supermarket door, I must help. Those who are crazy, I will take them Tied to a stool, try to take care of them twice a day. "

Lu Chu silent for a moment.

The man sighed again: "Do you think I worry too much?"

Lu Chu asked, "How many people have you saved?"

"Eleven."

"your family……"

"My wife, that is the only one who supports me. Even Dr. He and Xiao Jiang have advised me to live well."

This is indeed the most realistic approach.

The man again said, "I ask you, are you afraid of what happened now?"

Lu Chu said nothing.

The man then said, "I'm afraid anyway, I'm afraid of dying. But these crazy people are all because they can't see or hear, even my children have lost the ability to speak. They are more afraid than us what."

"But is your food enough?"

"It's enough for the time being. The warehouse of my supermarket is in the house. I know the food will gradually decrease, but I believe that our small town will come out of panic sooner or later. All the chaos is because people are afraid. That's it. After the fear has passed, even if everyone perceives the lack, our lives will be on track. "

The man's tone was mixed with hope: "Who says that he cannot see and hear, he cannot live well."
