90. Being human
The crowd was still confused until her head was smashed by the gun handle. Her eyes fell down with a cloudy eyeball.
I don’t know who took the lead and began to escape to the No. 3 entrance behind me.
The rest woke up like a dream, and turned around and fled. Among them, more than a dozen figures rushed towards the group of soldiers without retreating.
The soldiers opened fire.
The gunshots aggravated the chaos, and the cries mixed with the gunshots. Someone fell down and was stepped on by later people before they could get up. They struggled gradually and were powerless until they were still motionless. Mobile::
More than a dozen people delayed the time for the crowd. The crowd stumbled and rushed towards the platform. The soldiers guarding the place changed their faces and dodged to the side.
Like a flock of sheep chased by a pack of wolves, they come to the edge of the platform until they find there is no way out.
The narrow lifting planks only allowed a few people to stand on it at a time. They were crowded and pushed each other, blocked by approaching soldiers on the edge of the cliff.
The city guard officer wiped the blood on his hands with a handkerchief and pressed him step by step with the soldiers.
The soldiers finally stopped 20 meters away from the crowd.
"Prepare!"
A handkerchief with a few bright red spots slowly fell in front of him, and was then stepped on by the city guards, and he raised his hand.
The pale searchlight shone on the dodging crowd, and the soldiers raised their guns and pointed them at the residents of Hell City ahead.
At this moment, a riot suddenly appeared behind the crowd and spread rapidly.
The soldiers' heads were removed from the plane and their rifles were gradually put down. They saw these desperate poor people in a daze, screaming across the long tone and jumping off the platform.
"Oh My God……"
"Open the fire!" The city guard shouted coldly.
"I...I can't do it." A soldier said gritting his teeth.
They may have accepted bribes, bullied the poor, stole things, and even killed people. With the command of the superior, they can even kill innocent people.
But it does not mean that you can attack this scene.
Every soldier was thinking. Are these poor people crazy? Is it worth it for an indecent invitation?
"I don't want to say it a second time."
The cold voice of the city guard officer was clearly penetrated into his mind even in the chaos.
The soldiers were unable to fight and became a hindrance. They said rest in peace, but pulled the trigger.
The crisp and continuous gunfire echoed in the cave, and the front rows of people fell down in rows. This aggravated their push and the crowds fell from the platform in a crowded manner, pouring down like water.
Under the platform were a mountain of layers of people, screaming and crowded. Some lucky people slid down from the top and were not pressed down. They staggered up and rushed towards the cave.
Ivan mixed in it, dizzy and used his hands and feet, crawling on the bloody ground, wanting to leave here.
"Take my daughter away! Please!"
Ivan, who dared not look back at the tragic scene, suddenly heard a heart-wrenching scream.
He hesitated for a while, but turned around and looked.
At the foot of the "mountain", half of a woman's body fell into a squirming and struggling mountain, and she raised a little girl.
Ivan rushed over to pull her out, but suddenly a scream came from far to near, and then slammed heavily on the woman's head.
The woman's figure disappeared, her hands that were exposed were drooping weakly, and the figure also lost her intuition because of her lower body and screamed.
Ivan pursed his lips tightly, picked up the little girl and ran to the cave.
Bullets roared around them. From time to time, someone screamed and fell, and fell behind him in a blink of an eye.
He fell down, the bullet flew over his scalp, and his palms were worn into skin by the rough sand and stone floor, which made him feel so hot.
The little girl stood aside without saying a word, waiting for herself to get up.
Her eyes were filled with tears, and she seemed not as strong as she thought.
Ivan picked her up again and fled into a cave more than ten meters away.
On the high platform, the captain hiding in the corner led the soldiers to join the battle quietly. The city guards glanced coldly and said nothing.
At this time, a soldier took off his grenade from his waist and wanted to throw it under him, but was taken off by the captain and kicked over.
"Did you get shit in your head? Use a grenade in the cave!?"
The soldiers hesitated and dared not get up.
At this time, the city guard turned around and left the platform: "Get out of the team and retreat."
The captain flinched and asked, "Sir, aren't we going to pursue it?"
"No, they can't survive." The city guard officer said without looking back. "Or it's up to you?"
Of course the captain won't leave.
"But...what should the untouchables below do..."
The screams and cries of men, women, young and old are mixed together, making their scalp numb. Computer::/
"Let them shout, and if they feel noisy, they will block their ears. If they don't have the strength, they will stop." The city guard said coldly. He paused when he passed by the insane whistleblower who was kneeling on the ground and was in a daze.
"Tomorrow, go to the Chengwei Mansion to receive the civilian card." The Chengwei Officer said, stepping away.
...
Survivors walked slowly in the extremely narrow cave.
Some injured people covered their wounds and walked slowly.
Ivan slowed down and walked by these people.
The screams in the cave seemed to be echoing in his ears. He was very sure that this was his own hallucination.
In order not to think too much, Yifan found some topics and asked the little girl in her arms who didn't cry or make a fuss: "Is that your mother?"
The little girl nodded.
“She is great.”
The little girl nodded.
"Are you mute?"
The little girl shook her head.
Ivan understood and stopped asking her these questions.
thump
Someone fell not far in front of him. The man twisted one leg backward, and somehow he stuck here.
Ivan slowed down and wanted to help, but eventually found that he could do nothing.
He didn't want to see these again. He accelerated his pace and walked out of the cave.
It's very cold outside, and the temperature drops to an intuitive level.
There are still many people standing at the entrance of the cave, hiding in a place where the wind cannot blow, waiting quietly for something.
More than ten minutes later, a voice asked in the cold wind.
“Is that all there is?”
“That’s all.”
An old man lit a torch, he was the one who had just asked.
The old man looked around and the torch was released on everyone's face. His back became even more hunched and said, "...I remember the direction, everyone should hold each other and never fall behind."
Ivan grabbed the corner of his clothes in front of him and walked silently in the team. He didn't know how many people were left, maybe half of them were left, maybe even fewer.
I stumbled all night. From time to time, some people fell behind due to physical exhaustion and injuries and could not hold on.
The little girl in her arms was trembling, but he could do nothing.
They were lucky to have not encountered any mutant creatures along the way. Until early morning, they encountered a team that was out. The team at the Dawn Camp.
They were saved.
A few dozen minutes later, Ivan held a portion of hot soup in his hand and leaned against the corner of the wall with a blanket.
Tears and sand mixed on the cheeks, muddy and dirty.
Joyce forgot when he cried.
Is it the hard work of that team?
Are they braved the cold and looking for the ones who are left alone?
Is it the hot soup and thick blankets handed over?
Is it the concerning gaze of residents?
Did someone pick up the little noisy and hand it back to himself?
Or are there any?
He doesn't know.
