Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

An Suxin and his sister were not around at the moment, so Chu Xiao could only use his own brain. Fortunately, under the influence of the two, Chu Xiao was able to analyze some things.

Seeing that Chen Zhiyun did not deny it, Chu Xiao could not help but feel a little worried: "With such a huge difference in strength, do you have a chance of winning? Is there no other way?"

Whether it was what he learned from Gu Ke and the others, or what An Suxin analyzed before setting off, or what Chu Xiao saw with his own eyes after entering the shelter, the police officers in the shelter were indeed in an absolutely disadvantaged position, and the power of justice paled in the face of conspiracy.

——Even so, will he do it? Like a moth to a flame?

The old policeman said softly, "Weakness is not an excuse. Tolerating evil is itself a kind of evil. Even if it is to save people, it cannot be used as an excuse. I have already let down my uniform. But, at least, I still have a chance to atone for my incompetence and for those who died because of my incompetence."

The old policeman's figure suddenly became taller, and he looked like a tired warrior with unshaven beard. Suddenly he opened his eyes.

"Besides, it's not like we're just flying into a flame. We naturally have our own chances of winning." The old policeman patted the pistol on his waist, as if he was patting an old friend who had been with him for many years. "I'll leave Xiao Gu's matter to you. Go to bed early. I'm leaving now."

……

"Captain Chen, won't there be any problems if we let him know this?" asked Officer Li, who had been guarding the door.

"Don't worry. With my more than 20 years of experience as a police officer and my intuition as a police officer, I know that guy is a reliable guy." Chen Zhiyun patted Officer Li on the shoulder. "Besides, do you think Sun Baishi can't guess that I'm going to take action?"

Sun Baishi used the rescue mission to gather the survivors while consuming the police's strength. Since the rescue has stopped, it means that the weakening of the police's strength has reached its limit. For Sun Baishi, at this point, the police have completely lost their effectiveness, and the two sides have basically reached the point of tearing each other apart.

Chen Zhiyun is naturally not someone who just waits for death. Since he has guessed Sun Baishi's thoughts, Old Chen certainly has his own plans.

"If we don't count the citizens who helped, how many people are there in total?"

"Including the brothers who sneaked in in plain clothes, there are about a hundred people." Officer Li reported in a low voice. The rescue missions these days are not just for rescue, they also gather the police colleagues who have lost contact and let them disguise themselves as plain clothes and sneak into the shelter.

So on the surface, there are only about ten police officers left in the shelter, but in reality there are more than a hundred.

"So how many guns do we have left?"

Officer Li raised a young man's sly smile and said, "The brothers almost emptied the warehouse in the bureau... I've wanted to do that for a long time!"

Since entering the shelter would result in isolation and body searches, the weapons were secretly brought into the shelter in batches by the police. Of course, they also lost a lot of people in order to obtain these weapons.

Chen Zhiyun did not laugh, he did not feel happy. As he said, for today, he indulged in evil deeds, which was equivalent to committing evil. Any excuses and reasons were pale, and in the end it just became atonement.

…After all, justice delayed is justice denied.

"Notify the brothers to get ready." Chen Zhiyun whispered, "We will start in the second half of the night."

"Okay." Officer Li, who had been feeling aggrieved for a long time, walked down excitedly.

Chen Zhiyun took out a cigarette from his pocket and wanted to smoke one, but found that the cigarette box was empty. He sighed and raised his head to look up at the shelter.

Obviously, thanks to his preparation, the police had an absolute advantage in equipment, but he just couldn't get rid of the uneasiness in his heart.

If Sun Baishi was an opponent whom he could easily defeat, he wouldn't have been unable to catch him for so many years.

But the arrow is on the string and has to be shot...

……

Chu Xiao stayed in Gu Ke's room, feeling that he was close to Gu Ke in space for the first time. He imagined how that strong girl who also loved beauty and cleanliness could endure the worsening situation in such an environment as his.

...So, where did you go?

After Chen Zhiyun left, Yun Duo'er, who was like a little animal, finally relaxed. The little girl's sharp tongue and temper suddenly emerged again: "This place is too messy, it's not a place for people to stay!"

Then, the cute little girl started to clean up seriously while spewing poison from her mouth.

Chu Xiao could see that this little girl was a very insecure girl. Her arrogant way of speaking was actually a way of protecting herself, just like a little hedgehog, using its sharp thorns to protect its soft body inside.

I just don't know why she would choose to get close to me?

Chu Xiao smiled and asked Yun Duoer: "Can you answer me now? Why do you have to follow me?"

The little girl's movements froze for a moment, and she seemed not to want to answer.

"If... I mean if, I don't tell you, what will you do to me?" At this time, she changed her self-reference back to "I".

"I won't do anything," Chu Xiao said, "I won't control you, but I absolutely forbid you to get close to me."

"That won't work!" The girl suddenly raised her voice, sounding extremely flustered.

After listening to this, Chu Xiao became more curious. Yun Duoer seemed to be obsessed with staying by his side. What was her purpose?

"Then tell me why it's not possible." At this moment, the adult's calmness controlled the little girl.

Yun Duo'er pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "If I don't follow you, I will die."

This answer was indeed something Chu Xiao did not expect.

Combined with the weird atmosphere surrounding Yun Duoer when they first met, Chu Xiao's intuition told him that this girl was telling the truth.

"Explain to me exactly what happened."

The little girl stammered and finally spoke: "Because... from that day on, I could feel it..."

Chapter 25 Letter

The little girl's description was a bit confusing, and Chu Xiao listened to it several times before he understood her situation.

In short, it was also because of the doomsday virus that some parts of Yun Duoer showed abnormalities. What was enhanced was probably the so-called "sixth sense". In the girl's own words, it was like "there was a voice talking in her head".

It is said that animals will instinctively sense danger when it occurs, and then start to run away. However, after evolution, humans have gained wisdom, but have lost this ability to sense danger. Perhaps because Yun Duoer was young, the virus brought her a certain instinctive revival.

Previously, she relied on this ability to force her parents to hide at home and avoid the initial impact of the doomsday. However, later, her parents did not believe in their daughter's special "feeling" and eventually died in the mouth of zombies. However, Yun Duoer, relying on this wonderful foresight, avoided the fate of death many times and successfully reunited with the rescue.

However, despite coming to this refuge, Yun Duoer still felt a huge danger, as if she might die at any time. It was not until she came to Chu Xiao's side that this sense of crisis gradually faded away - it was as if there were countless roads leading to death in the maze, and the moment she saw Chu Xiao, she found the only way to survive.

Therefore, Yun Duoer decided that this man was the one destined to save her!

Chu Xiao currently knows of too few samples of "virus enhancement". The changes around him are basically at the physical or thinking level. It is not clear whether people like Yun Duoer are special individuals.

However, he still knew how important Yun Duoer's ability was!

Although the four words "seek good fortune and avoid misfortune" sound metaphysical, they can save lives at critical moments!

Suddenly, Chu Xiao looked at Yun Duo'er as if he was looking at a small moving radar: "This is quite powerful..."

The little girl snorted in a very cocky way, and changed her self-proclaimed name from "I" back to "this sir": "So, you should be thankful that you have this sir by your side. This sir will be your lucky goddess! You must protect this sir well, understand!"

"You have already said this just now." Chu Xiao smiled and pinched Yun Duoer's little face.

Yun Duo'er obviously has a stunning foundation, and is a little bit spoiled, which makes people think of a fairy who has strayed into the human world.

"Then let me ask you, why didn't you let me agree to that woman surnamed Wang just now?"

Yun Duoer swept the garbage in the room to the corner and put it in a bag. At the same time, she replied, "Because I feel that the old woman is very dangerous. If you agree to her, it will be very miserable, and I will be finished with her."

As for the more specific reason, Yun Duoer herself couldn't explain it clearly because it was just an ambiguous premonition.

Chu Xiao thought more. If it was true that, as Yun Duoer had predicted, he would encounter "bad" things if he agreed to Wang Manyi's request, then did that mean that all the "enhanced people" recruited by Wang Manyi before him had encountered some bad things? But if that was the case, why didn't Chen Zhiyun mention similar information just now? Didn't he know about this either?

Chu Xiao was thinking carefully, Yun Duo'er's small body was running back and forth in front of him, looking very diligent, so much so that even Chu Xiao, an adult, felt a little ashamed.

The young man glanced at his mobile phone and found that there was still some time before something he was going to do. In any case, being unexpectedly released from the isolation room ahead of schedule gave Chu Xiao a lot more time for his next action.

He temporarily put aside the things he couldn't figure out and prepared to help with the cleaning - otherwise, just watching a cute little loli cleaning would really make him, as an adult in society, feel ashamed.

As a result, when he lifted the messy blanket on the bench, a neatly folded piece of paper flew out.

Out of curiosity, Chu Xiao unfolded the piece of paper and saw a string of extremely delicate words written on it.

——"To the Lantern Festival Lanterns"...

Chu Xiao's heart trembled, and an unknown feeling surged up.

This turned out to be a letter she left for herself.

"I hope you don't see this message, that at least proves that you didn't get into this damn quagmire, but I don't know why, I always have a feeling that you will come. Well, maybe there is a one in a thousand chance that you, a fool, will run in because of my ridiculous cry for help, so I feel that there are some things I must tell you to prevent that one in a thousand risk... Damn, if you really see this message, I will definitely regret calling you that night..."

"Those bastards are getting more and more crazy. Today I discovered that they deliberately mixed people who were scratched by zombies into the isolation room and let the zombies attack the survivors! I told Lao Chen, my boss, about this. Lao Chen seemed to understand their purpose, but he meant that he couldn't stop them for the time being. It was really frustrating..."

"Moreover, those minions have begun to blatantly bully the survivors in the shelter. Some bastards even dared to target me! They are simply courting death! They don't know that I graduated with the highest score in the police academy. If they dare to target me, they really don't know how to write the word 'death'! Of course, I must also praise them for their good vision..."

Chu Xiao couldn't help but laugh. This kind of style of suddenly bragging about himself was definitely Gu Ke himself.

Putting aside some of the meaningless comments that made Chu Xiao very happy, Gu Ke quickly wrote down the key information.

"There are currently two completely closed areas in this shelter. One area is a large supermarket located underground. Since there are too many zombies inside, we are unable to clean it out, so we can only completely close it off. The second blocked area is the west area of ​​this commercial center."

"You probably already know that the reason why this shelter was built so quickly is all thanks to the construction work being done by Sun Baishi's construction company. In addition to the buildings being developed, the west area of ​​the commercial plaza, which is being expanded, was also contracted by Sun Baishi a month ago. But now, the west area is an inaccessible blockade. I have always suspected that the bastard surnamed Sun has a secret, and it is very likely that he is hiding in the west area. This is my intuition as a policeman, and it must be correct."

Chu Xiao read the letter left by Gu Ke with a smile on his face. He said to himself, "Really... No wonder you can't find a boyfriend. You keep calling me 'bastard'. Who can stand that?"

"…By the way, people have been disappearing in the shelter recently. Although I suspect it has something to do with Sun Baishi, I have no evidence. If you come in, you must be careful."

Chu Xiao's eyes darkened slightly. Perhaps it was for this reason that Gu Ke felt a sense of crisis and left this letter...

"...You have to be careful of Sun Baishi. We started investigating him before the disaster. He seemed to have a huge amount of money from unknown sources to support his business comeback. Unfortunately, until the disaster, we didn't figure out who was behind him. But now that the world has become like this, this matter probably doesn't make any sense..."

"I checked. There is a rooftop in the southeast corner of the third floor. It's a remote location and there aren't many zombies down there. It would be more reliable if you find a rope to climb down. It's a suitable escape route. Remember the location for me!"

"Because the power is out, I wrote this letter using the light of my cell phone. My eyes are almost blurry. Are you touched, my little brother?"

"...I feel a little complicated. I don't know if I want you to see this letter... But when I heard you say on the phone that you would come to save me, I was really happy..."

"Finally, if you really come, thank you for saving me, Mr. Self-determined Hero."

"Live well."

"Stay in your own shadow."

Chapter 26 The Future

Judging from the time, Gu Ke disappeared after writing this message, and it is unknown what happened to her. It is obvious that she must have done something after writing this letter.

Looking at this message, Chu Xiao felt a little complicated.

This wasn't a message at all, it was clearly a suicide note! Damn it, this woman had even considered his escape route!

"The rooftop in the southeast corner of the third floor... It turns out you have also noticed that great place." Chu Xiao smiled and put the note away.

"Okay, Yun Duo'er, I have some things to do and need to go somewhere, why don't you stay by yourself for a while?"

"No!" Yun Duoer immediately expressed strong opposition. The little girl jumped up, swung her two short legs quickly, and grabbed the corner of Chu Xiao's clothes, "Don't try to get rid of me."

Chu Xiao thought that he would just go to find out the situation in the shelter for the time being. Even if he brought a little girl with him, it would not have much impact: "Okay, I won't stop you if you want to follow me, but you have to promise not to cause any trouble for me."

The little girl nodded repeatedly.

The situation in the shelter was just as Chu Xiao had seen before, like a desolate and silent ruin. Even though there were so many people gathered together, the whole place seemed to be filled with an aura of death.

Yun Duoer tightly grasped the corner of Chu Xiao's clothes, not daring to move. Looking at those completely lifeless people, her delicate face turned pale. Yun Duoer, a girl with a delicate doll-like appearance, was as conspicuous as a torch in the dark night in such an environment.

Countless eyes were cast towards her, making this overly sensitive girl feel a huge pressure, as if she was walking alone in the dark, in places where she couldn't see clearly, there were malicious eyes everywhere. Telling her directly that she was in a dark abyss at the moment... No, not just here, everywhere was an abyss, and what was waiting for her seemed to be only the fate of death...

"Are you still scared?" Chu Xiao always paid some of his attention to Yun Duoer. When the little girl's face looked wrong, he noticed it at the first time.

"I...I am not afraid..." She wanted to emphasize it stubbornly, but looking into the man's eyes, she couldn't pretend anymore and asked in a low voice, "Can you hold my hand?"

Compared to Chu Xiao's adult hand, Yun Duo'er's hand was too small, and Chu Xiao easily held it in his palm. Her hand was cold, and he could even feel the sweat oozing from her palm. No matter how much Yun Duo'er used her hedgehog-like appearance to protect herself, she was still a young child after all. She suddenly lost her parents in a huge disaster and was stranded in such an unfamiliar environment. It was natural for her to be worried and afraid.

Chu Xiao suddenly realized how the little girl's panicked heart was redeemed the moment she took the initiative to find him.

"I suddenly remembered that I haven't had time to introduce myself yet." Chu Xiao said to Yun Duoer, "My name is Chu Xiao, you can call me whatever you want."

Yun Duoer looked up at the man and thought for a moment, "Then, do you need me to call you dad?"

Chu Xiao almost stuttered in one breath: "Do I look like someone who has a daughter as old as you?"

"But the book says that men love to be called daddy the most."

"Don't read that kind of book. It's full of nonsense."

"So, uncle?"

"Why are you so speechless, little girl?" Chu Xiao gently tapped Yun Duo'er's head and ruffled her black and smooth hair. "Do I look that old?"

The little girl pouted immediately and thought: Didn’t you tell me to call you whatever I want?

"Big brother..." Yun Duoer tidied her messy hair and called out with a pout.

"Little sister, be good."
