Chapter 873: Visiting the School (1)
The two cars were driving on the road in sequence. In order to prevent sudden collisions, the latter kept a distance of nearly 200 meters from the car in front.
Anyway, the field of view is pretty good, and with the wireless mobile station continuing to communicate, Lao Xu is not worried that the latter will lose the line.
If I had to find something that old Xu was worried about, it would be Derek who led the way.
Because I was unfamiliar with the roads when I first arrived here, and I was too hasty to plan the map.
Therefore, all routes to school on this trip must be guided by Derek.
Lao Xu only hoped that this young man could be as kind as he seemed.
But if the opposition really dares to do something, Lao Xu doesn't care.
After all, the protective performance of the escort vehicle lies here. Unless the other party has heavy weapons, it is impossible for the police equipment to cause damage to the vehicle.
On the contrary, they can use the shooting holes of the escort vehicle to counterattack from inside the vehicle. They may be able to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.
The car was approaching and after 15 minutes of hesitation, Tang Xiaoquan couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that the destination had not yet appeared.
"Haha, Xiaode, haven't you arrived yet?"
Derek, who was leading the way for Lao Xu, subconsciously glanced back after hearing Tang Xiaoquan's question behind him.
Derek still had a good impression of the young man in the back compartment. After all, last night, under the unfriendly pressure of everyone on the other side, only the young man was kinder to him and even stood up for him several times.
But if Derek knew that it was just Tang Xiaoquan using his method of "wooing", I wonder if he would still think that the other party was good.
"It's almost there, probably about 10 minutes." Derek looked at the time in the car and replied with a rough estimate.
"10 minutes," Tang Xiaoquan nodded silently while making quick calculations in his mind.
If you take into account the time spent before, then it adds up to a full 25 minutes...
Thinking of this, Tang Xiaoquan looked at Derek meaningfully.
"Xiao De, it's such a long way. How did you get here then?"
There is no doubt that if the other party takes a vehicle, it is impossible for Lao Xu and his night search team to find any traces.
In other words, if Derek mentioned a vehicle like a car at this time, it can basically be concluded that he is lying.
As for the reason why he tried so hard to lie... Tang Xiaoquan's hand gently touched the edge of the car seat. When it touched the cold blade, he moved up and grasped the handle.
Needless to say, if Derek's answer is inappropriate later, Tang Xiaoquan will use force to force him to tell the truth.
But to Tang Xiaoquan's surprise, Derek did not answer his question directly, but inexplicably lifted his feet up, took them off immediately, and put them in front of Tang Xiaoquan: "I relied on them to travel long distances."
While talking, Derek pulled out the four pulleys embedded in the soles of the shoes: "I said before, I have two major hobbies, one is playing cars; the other is extreme sports; skateboarding and skating are one of them. Since I returned to
In China, it is difficult to drive due to driver’s license issues, so I wear these shoes for transportation. I didn’t expect that they would actually come in handy in the end of the world.”
Derek smiled bitterly. Derek looked a little helpless.
But what Derek didn't know was that after listening to his story, Tang Xiaoquan felt helpless, but he was no weaker than him.
Rich people are different. Although I can't figure out how much the shoes on Derek's feet cost, the fact that the shoes are still in good condition more than half a year after the end of the world is enough to illustrate the value of the shoes themselves.
With his doubts lifted, Tang Xiaoquan's heart relaxed a little, and the steel knife he held tightly in his hand was put back to its original place.
Everything returned to its original place again, Derek put on his shoes, turned around and continued to guide Xu Renjie the way.
Just as Derek predicted, after the motorcade continued for about 10 minutes, a tall building rose up on the horizon.
Considering that there were many flat areas in his surroundings, Lao Xu stopped the car in order not to expose his target.
"Is that the school you're talking about?" Lao Xu asked, pointing to the tall building opposite.
"That's right. It's right there. It's a joint venture school between China and Country M. There are many foreign students in it. Most of them came to China as exchange students."
Lao Xu didn't dare to be interested in this. In order to verify whether Derek's words were correct, Xu Renjie went to Lao Zhao to find out some information in private.
The most important point is whether her daughter is a student of this school.
Undoubtedly, this point is very critical, because no matter how consistent the school girl Derek described is with Lao Zhao's daughter.
But if the latter is not a student of this school, then...
What Lao Zhao said was that her daughter was indeed not a student at that school, but she had said before the holiday that she was going to play with a friend of hers.
It's just that Lao Zhao doesn't know whether the friend his daughter mentioned is Demi.
Taking the telescope, Lao Xu carefully scanned the situation along the way.
This 3oo trip was mostly in small shops such as Internet cafes and restaurants, and there were many zombies wandering outside the shops.
Looking at those wandering zombies, Xu Renjie couldn't help but have a headache.
It is not a problem to deal with them, but it is much more difficult to deal with them without alerting the zombies in the school.
Even if Lao Xu and the others had a way to deal with the walking corpses wandering outside, they would probably waste a lot of time once they were done.
"Hey, how do you usually get through those zombie blockades?" Putting down the binoculars, Old Xu turned his attention to the co-pilot Derek. He believed that since the young man next to him could reach his village alive, he must have a way to get through those zombie blockades.
Road corpse barrier.
Sure enough, after Lao Xu stopped talking, Derek raised his hand and pointed forward.
"There, at the entrance of Furious Internet Cafe, 50 meters to the south, do you see two dead bodies on the ground?"
After hearing Derek's reply, Xu Renjie quickly raised his binoculars and looked in the direction of Derek's fingers. Sure enough, he saw two dead bodies not far ahead.
"Well, I saw it, what should I say?"
"Did you see the manhole cover next to the dead body?"
"See you!"
"From there, you can go directly to the school."
"Are you sure?" Lao Xu looked back noncommittally, staring straight at Derek.
Derek was a little uncomfortable being stared at by his scorching eyes, but he knew that if he avoided it at this moment, he would definitely make the other party suspicious.
So he met Xu Renjie's gaze and replied firmly: "I'm sure, I walk from there every time. If you are worried, I can lead the way."
Nodding, Lao Xu saw that the young man's eyes were firm and did not seem to be fake.
But even so, he still dared not take it lightly.
After all, this was their first time here, and naturally they were not as familiar with the geographical environment as Derek.
