Chapter 16 - collect

The bustling commercial street in the past also looks very “prosperous” at this time, and the scattered vehicles on the street are the source of the prosperity in this neighborhood. Many zombies lost in the nearby streets formed the main passenger flow of this commercial street, and many of them simply wandered into the shopping malls with wide-open doors, patrolling and wandering around blankly .

Wei Xuan took Du Hang directly to the men’s clothing department on the third floor of a shopping mall. Compared with other places, this place is relatively clean. The situation in restaurants and dessert shops is still similar to the situation before the end of the world, even though there are still many zombie customers crowded inside.

Of course, although most of the zombie clerks did not leave the store, it is a pity that no one will sell anything to these “customers” unless they are living people themselves and sell their own flesh and blood as commodities. It will be even more impressive before the end of the world.

The air was filled with a strange mixture of rotten and musty smells, which made Wei Xuan, who entered the mall wearing a mask, subconsciously frowned.

These smells are not caused by dead people or zombies, but from those shops…

Perhaps because of the growing popularity of online stores, the large shopping malls in T City have embarked on a strange route since many years ago—the shopping malls no longer rely on various brands of clothing to attract customers, but instead rely on various brands of clothing to attract customers. At the same time as large clothing brand stores, a larger number of gourmet stores of various colors are needed to attract customers.

These customers often call friends and friends to look for newly opened special gourmet restaurants with good reviews after get off work, on weekends, festivals, etc. After a full meal in the restaurant, those customers may disappear Then I will drop by the various clothing stores in the same shopping mall. If these shops are lucky, they will be able to sell some goods when these “drop in” shoppers are in high spirits.

After all, in the era when the Internet is so developed, although many people still go shopping, they are just “shopping”. After shopping, they often go home and check the prices of similar products online. The same item that is much cheaper in brick and mortar stores.

The topic is far away. In short, for various reasons, most of the zombies in this beautifully decorated commercial center gather inside and outside certain shops. However, the men’s clothing stores that Wei Xuan and Du Hang walked into were extremely clean.

Glancing at the zombie waiter sitting behind the checkout counter, Wei Xuan directly pulled Du Hang to buy clothes, shoes and socks for the two of them—the electricity in this area was cut off early, and the monitors in the mall were all out of sync with Those lighting facilities have also become appearances.

Sure enough, as Wei Xuan expected, the size of the clothes of the two of them was hard to find in the place where Wei Xuan lived, but they can be found here very easily. Not to mention the large backpacks on their backs were filled with casual and sports clothes that the two of them could wear, there were five or six bags hanging on Du Hang’s bent arms.

After leaving this store, Wei Weixuan packed a lot of useful things in an outdoor goods store on the second floor. He even packed up the tent that was used as a sample there, and prepared to move it away with him behind his back.

Looking at the large gift bag of portable field cooking utensils (packed by Wei Xuan) at his feet, and a pile of equipment such as mountaineering suits that can be used by two people in the last days, Wei Xuan rubbed his temples with a slight headache.

These things must be brought back, but the question is how to bring them back?

Walking a few steps to the window, I looked down at the depressed street… No, it is not entirely correct to say that it is depressed, because there are not many people on the street at all, and the number of vehicles is surprisingly large.

The criss-crossing of vehicles almost filled the streets and alleys nearby. If Wei Xuan could barely rely on his driving skills to walk through the streets near the residential area where he stayed before, then he would be considered a Even if you want the car to walk on the sidewalk, you will definitely not be able to drive it out!

Rubbing his somewhat swollen head again, Wei Xuan turned his head helplessly to look at Du Hang who was still obediently following him with a blank face, and then looked at the mountain bikes in the sporting goods store—here is It is true that there is a means of transportation, and it is true that this means of transportation can move through the city in today’s horrible traffic conditions. But the problem is that he can go back by bike, what should Du Hang do? !

Let zombies learn bicycles? This is really a good proposition. Maybe with Du Hang’s ingenuity, which is different from ordinary zombies, one day he can learn it? But the problem is that Wei Xuan is in a hurry now!

Let Wei Xuan go back with Du Hang on a bicycle? It’s not impossible, but what about those things? How can Du Hang put those things in the back of the car?

Relying on physical strength, the two carried all the things back? But there is no place to carry them on their bodies now!

After thinking about it again and again, Wei Xuan dropped his belongings and dragged Du Hang to the basement floor of the commercial building next door, and pulled out two supermarket trolleys from inside, which solved the urgent need.

At this time, I have to sigh again – this kind of car is really a very convenient and good tool! Especially after the end of the world, as long as you don’t have to worry about being seen by others, the efficiency of using this kind of car to transport things is definitely much more convenient than carrying it yourself.

Although it was confirmed by Du Hang’s nose, which is more sensitive than a dog, there should be no survivors along the way when the two came. But in order to avoid the possibility that there are still living people on some high-level people and they can observe the actions of the two, Wei Xuan decided to collect some urgent things here and stuff them into the car and backpack, and rest until night falls. Push the car back in the dark.

Not long after, in the deep night, two small figures pushed a car each in this huge but eerily quiet city, slowly bypassing sundries, garbage, vehicles, and some Zombies who fell or sat on the road.

That’s right, that’s right, the zombies that fell on the ground. It’s down, it’s not death!

These zombies are still alive, and most of them have healthy limbs and health. Once they meet a living person, they can run at the speed of a 100-meter world champion.

However, it seems that since recently, many zombies have fallen to the ground one after another when night falls completely and there is no attraction for them to hunt and prey.

Their bodies looked very healthy, and there was no sign of their eyes closing together after falling to the ground. After discovering this strange situation, Wei Xuan judged it based on the strange behavior of his own zombies recently—some zombies may have slightly recovered some of their previous habits. It’s just habitually getting into “bed” at the right time. Only when they find food will they get up one after another, throw away these “habits” in life, and chase after the delicious food in their eyes.

It’s very easy to get around bulky things like vehicles. Although it’s night, people can vaguely see the shapes of those things from a distance with the help of moonlight. What makes people vomit blood are these zombies sleeping everywhere!

On the way home that night, Wei Xuan had accidentally bumped into and crushed the zombies lying on the ground several times in a row!

Fortunately, because the pushcart can help to find the way in front, even if the zombies who were “attacked” occasionally raised their arms and waved to open the objects that hit them, they were all blocked by the pushcart. Wei Xuan didn’t have to worry about himself Was accidentally injured by these guys. However, the car he and Du Hang were pushing had more or less scratches from the zombies.

But even so, when he took Du Hang hard to push things all the way to the gate of his own community, he was shocked by the shape of two zombies at the gate—a female zombie lying on the ground, with a There is a male zombie lying on its stomach, that posture, that movement, that frequency of ups and downs… no matter how you look at it, it looks like it’s having sex!

Wei Xuan thought he was dazzled at first, and then he was extremely shocked and thought that he had encountered a perverted incident where a living person came here to attack a female zombie!

But when he realized that the figure had no reaction to the arrival of the two of them, Wei Xuan immediately calmed down, took out his flashlight, and pointed at the pair of figures who were suspected of being “struggling”, and then…he couldn’t help cursing his mother .

It’s true that the posture is that kind of posture, and the movements are very similar to the movements of living people, but the two zombies are only very similar in movements, but they definitely have more than enough energy… These two guys even have pants. They didn’t even take it off, and that thing didn’t seem to have any reaction after turning into a zombie, so how could it be possible to slap? !

Wei Xuan rolled his eyes, guessing that this male zombie should at least be a loyal fan of some kind of sports before going to bed, and the type who can’t sleep well all night if he doesn’t come after dark, that’s why there are such weird things in the post-apocalyptic world. The reaction… Fortunately, fortunately, they didn’t stage eighteen Xs at the gate with real knives and guns, otherwise I would definitely pull these two zombies and pull them far away from the gate of my house!

—————

Ever since military vehicles entered and left T City on a large scale, Wei Xuan’s life has become much richer, and he has gone out more frequently. For a week or so, he spent almost every day regularly going out and going home to organize things.

Then, his routine life gradually changed from bringing all kinds of materials to his “home” to moving a lot of easily damaged things out of his home. It looked like he was going to move again like.

However, the destination of this “moving” is not other nearby residential areas, let alone the hot pot restaurant where he lived before, but a small park near this community that was relatively famous before the end of the world.
