Junk Rat

Chapter 489: One step forward is death

Views:

Alice was taken aback and rubbed her eyes vigorously. There was an empty space all around, and the figure looked particularly dazzling.

Suppressing her excitement, she walked over step by step, getting closer, getting closer, and suddenly disappointed. It turned out that it was the dead helicopter pilot.

The driver who had been transformed into a corpse saw Alice and walked towards her with a twisted body. Alice raised the mouth of the crossbow and slammed the crossbow, causing it to die completely.

In the empty city, the sound of crossbows returned for a long time, Alice sighed lightly, and took out the backpack with crossbow arrows from the deformed helicopter.

Putting on her backpack, she walked towards the mall on the other side of the square. When she was still in the primitive jungle, her clothes were already in bad condition.

She came to the women's clothing area of the mall and picked a denim suit, a pair of sneakers, and a T-shirt. . . Changed clothes from the inside out, then walked out of the mall, wandering around aimlessly.

There was only one thought in his mind, why didn't you see a person or a zombie in such a big city? She looked up and saw the sunshine and gentle, but she subconsciously tightened her coat tightly.

After walking across more than a dozen roads, there is a large building in front of me. On the billboard on the wall, a happy family of three is painted:

A man and a woman are holding a little boy. The little boy's face is full of joy, but the wind and rain, the color of the billboard is dim and gray, making the little boy's smile look a little weird.

Below the billboard, there are eight characters in a row: Future Ark City Complex.

The so-called urban complex is a "city within a city" that integrates the five core functions of business office, commercial retail, hotel and catering, integrated entertainment, and apartment and residence based on the building complex.

Alice didn't know where to go anyway, so she walked in.

As soon as you enter the door, you see a square with colorful tiles on the ground. There are some children's entertainment facilities around: castles, carousels, swings, and in a wooden pool, there are countless ocean balls.

It's just that there is no popularity, this place should be full of laughter, but it seems even more desolate.

Alice picked up an ocean ball and continued to move forward. From a row of steps, there is a large terrace. There are many restaurants and bars around the terrace, and there are solid wood benches for tourists to rest at the door.

She walked to the bench

Go up, sit down, and see that there are many fruit trees planted on the terrace. There are large and small fruits hanging on the fruit trees, but the color looks a little abnormal. If you look carefully, it turns out that the entire fruit tree is made of craft plastic products.

Alice was sitting alone, wishing someone could talk, and at the worst, it would be nice to have a living creature, but she looked around and didn't even see a bird.

She thought to herself, this is a veritable dead city.

After sitting for a while, Alice felt hungry. She hadn't eaten a grain of rice since yesterday morning, so she walked into the dining room and came to the kitchen.

There was smoke and fire in the kitchen, and there was a mobile phone on the chopping board. She picked up the mobile phone. There was no doubt that the battery of the mobile phone was exhausted.

She thought to herself, it would be fine if there was electricity. When people disappeared, there must be someone taking pictures or videos, so that what happened at that time might be recorded.

When she turned on the gas stove, she could still hear the hissing air current, so she ignited it with a lighter, and the blue flame rose into the air, almost scorched to her hair, and quickly lowered the flame.

Alice boiled water and boiled a pot of rice, and found two cans of canned fish in soy sauce in the cupboard. Although it had already expired, the high-salt foods in vacuum cans still tasted good.

She filled her stomach and took a nap in the dining room. When she woke up, she was silent in her ears, and no sound was heard all around.

Photographed by this deadly atmosphere, she was a little mad, and suddenly she lost control of her emotions and called out loudly: "Ah~~Ah~~Don't be so quiet, okay!"

With a bang, a glass cup was grabbed by her, slammed to the ground, and smashed to pieces.

With a bang, the world returned to deathly silence.

Since the last days, it's not that Alice has been alone, but she has never heard a sound like this, and she even misses the corpse howling in the middle of the night.

After a break, Alice calmed down and walked out of the dining room towards the tallest building.

This is a commercial and residential building with a height of 100 stories visually. From the first to the sixth floor are supermarkets and shopping malls, and the seventh floor and above are all residential buildings.

She walked around to the back of the building and climbed upstairs from the safe passage. The corridor was quiet, and the steps were all dusty.

It took

It was almost an hour before Alice came to the rooftop. She panted hard and walked around the parapet wall to overlook the majestic city.

In the field of vision, magnificent tall buildings rose from the ground one after another, shining brightly under the bright sunlight, but the day was like late night, and in the silence, only the whimper of the wind could be heard.

Since then, Alice has lived in this huge urban complex. She has learned to entertain herself, self-discipline loneliness and depressed.

I even feel that it may not be impossible to live like this until I die of old age.

Every morning, after Alice's morning run, she comes to the clothing store, puts on the clothes of those brands one by one, and admires her graceful posture in front of the dressing mirror.

Whenever she is happy, she sometimes walks around in her own kingdom without wearing a single dress, as if she has returned to the Garden of Eden where God created the world.

At noon, she used the ingredients collected in various restaurants to cook exquisite pastries for herself in a different way. After enjoying it, it was lunch break.

In the evening, read books by candlelight.

This kind of life seems to be perfect, only from time to time, helpless loneliness, will suddenly and without warning, grab her heart.

This morning, Alice came to the rooftop for a morning run as usual. After sweating like rain, she looked at the big fireball rising in the east. The brilliant colors seemed to burn the clouds, making her deeply intoxicated.

Can't tell what is going on, maybe the devil has deceived her soul.

Alice climbed onto the parapet wall, opened her arms, bathed in golden sunlight, and a strange impulse suddenly rose in her mind, longing to take a leap like this.

She stood on her toes, bent her legs slightly, accumulating the strength of the vertical jump, like when a compressed spring was about to explode, she suddenly saw a wisp of blue smoke rising.

One step forward is death, one step backward is alive. This wisp of blue smoke saved Alice's life and let her dispel the thought of suicide.

She stepped back and fell on the roof, then jumped up, staring blankly at the wisp of green smoke, suddenly shouted out of control, and turned and ran down the roof.

Alice was crazy, and the sound of her running wildly sounded on the deserted road. The physical exhaustion and the ecstasy made her heart jump out of her mouth and fell to the ground.
