Chapter 53: It's All Bad News
June 6, 2015, morning.
Everyone gathered in the living room to have breakfast. Tang Ji was chewing something and leaning on the sofa. The wound on his mouth had completely subsided. He had always been concerned about the wound, so it healed very well. But now it looked a little strange, with a similar
The small scar on Yu Sanjiang's mouth was dark red and was strung together by a thread. Tang Ji could see it as long as he opened his mouth.
"Where's Christine? Why don't you come out yet?" Tang Ji suddenly put down the bread in his hand and turned around and asked.
"She is not feeling well and needs to rest. She ate breakfast in the room." Manilla glanced at Tangji lightly, lowered her head and picked up the milk and said, Manilla did not lie to Tangji, Christine was indeed
It was uncomfortable, but her words would make Tang Ji mistakenly think that Christine was on her menstrual period, and would not think of anything else.
"Oh." Tang Ji hesitated and didn't ask any more questions.
Hiss...
Not long after everyone had eaten, the mobile phone next to them suddenly rang, and everyone's attention was immediately attracted. The mobile phone was placed on the cabinet nearby, and it was set to radio mode.
It is a broadcast signal.
"Hiss...Hello everyone, this is the Everett Naval Base in Washington State. I am Navy Captain Tracy Mai...Hiss...Hello everyone..." The words on the phone were repeated on both sides before the voice became completely clear.
Come down.
It was a military signal, the same signal that notified the entire United States of the coming disaster at the beginning of the end of the world.
"Hello everyone, I am Captain Tresimai of the Navy. I am very happy to update you on some latest news at this time. I am still alive...I don't know how many people can listen to this news now, but I hope,
Anyone who hears these words should not give up their lives and try to live..."
"The following is the latest news. Based on satellite cloud images and detection data from cities around the base, it can be calculated that the current global population has dropped sharply to less than 300 million people, and hundreds of thousands of humans die abnormally every day.
It is expected that this rate of continued population loss will slow down in a month... The number of zombies in the world currently exceeds 5 billion, mainly concentrated in cities. Among them, the number of zombies in China accounts for a quarter of the global number of zombies, which is related to the apocalypse.
The former population proportion was quite..."
"The following is the latest news about zombie viruses..."
"According to the latest test results, zombie viruses can not only infect humans, but also have a certain impact on other mammals. The infection rate is lower than that of humans. Dogs are less resistant to viruses, about twice as high as humans, and cats are less resistant to viruses.
The resistance is strong and the infection rate is extremely low. Among the animals that have been tested so far, rats have the highest resistance and will almost never be infected, but there is no guarantee that there will be no isolated cases."
"Currently, zombie animals have appeared in some cities, mainly zombie dogs. The number is not large, and they have been injured to varying degrees before becoming zombies. However, the survivors who are currently sitting in front of the radio, please pay attention. If you encounter zombie animals,
Please stay away quickly, and it is best not to disturb zombies. Due to their body structure, although their muscles tend to harden, zombies can run much faster than human zombies, which is very dangerous. At the same time, survivors are advised to be equipped with non-gun weapons for close combat.
Weapons, such as fire axes, daggers, kitchen knives, baseball bats, etc. The number of zombie animals is very small and they cannot form groups and are fast. Facing them, the above-mentioned close-quarters weapons can sometimes play a better protective role than guns.
"
"The above is the complete content of the latest news. If there is any further news, the time will be set at 9 a.m. Washington time. Please pay attention to all survivors."
“God bless America!”
Hiss...
The sound of the radio disappeared, and everyone chanted "God bless America". They all fell silent. A few people even put down the food in their hands. There was no good news, all bad news. The world's population is now smaller than imagined.
, animals may also be infected, and the most common dogs in the city have the highest infection rate. After hearing this, everyone suddenly lost their appetite.
After eating, Tang Ji walked to the window with a strange expression on his face. He wiped his mouth with a tissue in his hand and looked out the window at the street below. His habit was to stand by the window and look outside when he had nothing to do.
Click!
The sound of a lighter came from behind Tang Ji.
Manilla flicked the lighter and put it into her pocket, folded her hands on her chest, held the lit cigarette in her right hand and took a puff. She walked to Tang Ji, exhaled the smoke, and moved the hand holding the cigarette to one side.
Nila also looked out the window.
"Where did the cigarette come from?" Tang Ji turned to look at Manila smoking, frowning.
"There was only half a box taken in the room. It should have been left by a group of guests in this suite." Manila looked outside and said, took another puff, and then slowly exhaled the smoke in her mouth, like
She looked like she was enjoying herself. She had been smoking for a long time and was addicted to smoking.
"I saw a zombie dog yesterday." Tang Ji paused, turned to look out the window and said suddenly.
"What?" Manilla suddenly took down the cigarette that she had just put to her mouth again, and looked at Tang Ji with wide eyes.
"Yesterday at dusk, I originally thought it was an ordinary stray dog. It ran very fast and disappeared on the street. At that time, I thought it was a zombie that was too slow to react and didn't see it, so I didn't chase it.
I heard the news today..." Tang Ji said this, shook his head slightly, paused and then said: "It should be the zombie dog, just outside. If it doesn't leave, the danger will be much greater when we leave."
"Should we make some preparations?" Robbie suddenly walked out from behind Tang Ji, went to the window and looked at Tang Ji and asked. He obviously heard the conversation between Tang Ji and Manilla.
"That's right..." Tang Ji nodded slowly, thought for a moment, turned around, walked back to the sofa and sat down. He reached out and took out a list from under the coffee table. It was a menu for ordering in the guest room, sealed with plastic.
It's the kind of film that's made very delicately. This hotel provides in-room dining service, so every room has a menu. Tang Ji saw it on the first day he came.
"What are you looking at?" Manilla followed and sat down next to Tang Ji, asking in confusion.
"Room service!" Tang Ji's eyes quickly scanned the front of the menu, and he turned the menu over as he spoke. On the back of the menu were some phone numbers, including the room service phone number, the manager's office phone number, the complaint phone number, etc.
Just at the end of the room service phone number, it says "Fourth Floor" in English in parentheses.
"Room service is on the fourth floor!" Tang Ji dropped the menu and stood up. He took out the gun from his waist and checked it.
"What happened on the fourth floor?" Manilla was still puzzled. Not only him, but Robbie also didn't seem to understand what Tang Ji meant.
"The fourth floor is room service..." Tang Ji withdrew his gun from the magazine and said without raising his head: "Normally, room service, kitchen, and security room will be on the same floor, so that customer service can receive calls.
It’s the most convenient time to do things, maybe... we can go to the fourth floor to get something back!"
