"Fuck!"

Most of the people were forced out. In an instant, Mr. Dagen made the fastest reaction.

Without further ado, he picked up the nurse sister Zhang Ying by the middle, and hid in the electrician's room, then pushed down the sundry shelf by the door, and used it to replace the broken lock to block the door.

At this time, there were several gunshots outside the door, as well as the girl's hysterical screams.

Teacher Dagen knew that it was Ji Thrush who shot.

"Hold on for five minutes!"

Mo Tiangen yelled towards the door: "Miss Zhang and I turned on the backup power of the air-raid shelter!"

"Brother Dagen, hurry up!"

Ji Thrush replied eagerly: "Also, you have to be careful yourself!"

In fact, the situation of Ji Thrush and others outside the corridor was not easy at all.

Those monsters with dog faces and ape bodies obviously came for the bloody smell of humans.

Although their body size is only equivalent to that of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, their limbs are muscular and powerful, and they can move flexibly. They can hunt in groups. In addition, they have the biting ability of dogs and the mobility of primates. Not too low.

After the first dog-ape, which bears the brunt, was shot in the thigh by the quarter-thrush and fell to the ground screaming, the other monkey immediately learned to turn around.

It didn't rush up directly, but cunningly found a nearby place to climb, jumped up to the ceiling, and disappeared with a "swoosh".

"Everyone be careful!"

Ji Thrush tightly held the gun in his hand, and looked around with the weak and messy lighting of the flashlight.

"Yeah!"

Min Qingqing uttered a scream before Captain Xiaoniao finished speaking, and at the same time, the flashlight in her hand shook violently as if she had suffered from epilepsy.

A dog ape jumped in front of the girl, stretched out its long claws and grabbed her face.

At the critical juncture, the girl was already petrified, and she couldn't react at all except shouting at the top of her voice.

Fortunately, Ren Jianmo's adaptability is much better than that of girls.

He reached out and grabbed Min Qingqing's arm, pulled her back, and dragged her back a few steps, her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell to the ground.

The dog monkey jumped into the air, and his paws brushed against the girl's forehead.

Ji Thrush seized the opportunity and fired two shots at the monster that was attacking Min Qingqing at a fairly close range.

The monster was shot, let out a canine whine, and fell from mid-air, dropping its furry body onto the girl's lap.

"Ahhh!"

The girl was unprepared, and reached out to touch the bloody and warm mass. She was so frightened that her three souls flew away, and she almost fainted on the spot when she rolled her eyes.

"Stop shouting, let's go!"

Ji Thrush reached out and grabbed the girl's arm, pulling and tugging, trying to pull her up.

At this time, under the light of the flashlight, he clearly saw four shadows running towards them from the other end of the corridor, and it was four more dogs and apes.

The movement speed of those monsters can be called "fast". Min Qingqing just shook off the ape corpses on her knees, and when she struggled to get up, they were already close in front of her eyes.

Cold sweat broke out on Ji Thrush's forehead.

He knew that even if he had a gun, he couldn't deal with so many dogs and apes at once, not to mention his marksmanship was not very good, and he didn't have many bullets left.

But the few apes didn't rush towards Ji Thrush and the others immediately.

The largest and strongest of the four dogs and apes suddenly jumped high, jumped onto a chair in the corridor, jumped again, grabbed a fixed pole of a display screen on the wall with its hind legs, and hung upside down , Swinging harder, with a swing-like high-altitude throwing posture, he jumped among the three of them without warning.

"I go!"

Ji Thrush was taken aback, and quickly raised his gun to aim.

But this crimson-haired monster didn't attack any of them. Instead, it screamed piercingly like a dog and an ape, and scurry around, scaring Min Qingqing, who hugged her head and shrank behind Ren Jianmo, closing her eyes. Eyes screaming.

Ji Thrush was afraid that his half-bottle of water would accidentally injure his companion, so he didn't dare to take the risk of shooting at such a short distance.

But the big dog ape only jumped for less than a minute, then suddenly flicked its paws, bared its teeth at the season thrush, gave a low bark in a demonstrative manner, then turned its head and jumped up to the ceiling, jumped forward, and jumped out of its feet. There were ten meters, and then he ran away towards the corridor when he came.

Ji Thrush: "??"

For a while, he didn't understand what kind of medicine was being sold in this monster gourd.

Is it because they are so crowded that they dare not attack

"stop looking."

Ren Jianmo patted Ji Thrush on the shoulder, and pointed the flashlight in one direction, "The one called Brother Jie was dragged away by them."

Under the illumination of the aperture, Ji Thrush saw that the strong man in blue who had been lying in the corner of the corridor had disappeared.

There was only a tattered canvas where he had stayed, and a long comet-tail-like bloodstain was dragged on the floor, extending into the dark corridor.

Ji Thrush shuddered.

The intelligence of these monsters has far exceeded his expectations.

Their initial target was the weakest person in the team—of course, Jie Ge, who was dying from excessive blood loss and lying on the ground, unable to struggle or call out.

So several dogs and apes came to a joint battle and defeated them individually.

First, the leader rushed to them to distract everyone's attention, and then the other ape monsters took advantage of the chaos and snatched away Jie Ge who was lying in the corner.

"They will come back after they finish eating the 'food'."

Ren Jianmo said calmly, "We are running out of time."

The scene of Jie Ge's body being torn apart by several dogs and apes involuntarily appeared in the minds of Ji Thrush and Min Qingqing, and the blood color faded from his face.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but they always feel that they can vaguely hear the "creaking" sound of those monsters chewing human bones from the depths of the darkness.

"Hey!"

Ji Thrush turned his head and reached out to pat the door of the electrician's room: "Brother Dagen, can you hurry up!? If you don't hurry up, we will all be dragged away by monsters!"

"Don't rush!!"

Mo Tiangen's furious growl came from the door, "U CAN U UP! Don't you know how complicated the switches in the whole hospital are!?"

Although Mr. Dagen is a science student, his engineering knowledge is limited to changing fuses on weekdays.

And although Zhang Ying had participated in several rescue trainings when she was in the emergency department, she was a nurse after all, and she only took a rough look at how to turn on the switch from a distance. There was a day when she was really allowed to practice alone.

Under the faint light of the flashlight, the two walked around in front of each electric box, while distractedly listening to the movement outside, being so urged by Ji Thrush, they were so anxious that they broke into cold sweat.

"That's right, this is it!"

Zhang Ying finally saw the electrical box with the label "Emergency Power Supply for Civil Air Defense Works", and was so happy that she burst into tears.

"Here! Teacher Mo, here!"

Mo Tiangen rushed over, bumped the girl away, opened the cabinet door without saying a word, and pushed all the gates to the "ON" position without even looking.

"It's bright!"

Ji Thrush and Min Qingqing shouted excitedly outside the door, "The emergency light in the corridor is on!"

"It's done!"

Zhang Ying screamed, rushed forward and hugged Mo Tiangen's shoulders, and wiped his face with tears from the excitement of nervousness and panic.

However, the feeling of Wenxiang nephrite in my arms is not as important as my life.

Mo Tiangen grinned and endured the pain from the wound on his shoulder being pressed by the girl's arm, picked up the girl with one hand, stepped to the door in two steps, pushed open the shelf blocking the door with the other hand, pulled his neck and shouted:

"Go, go, go now, go now!"

Indeed, as Ji Thrush and the others said, the corridor at this time was completely different from the darkness just now, and a circle of fluorescent blue emergency lighting indicators lit up on the wall near the ceiling.

Although the brightness and color of these lights are really not flattering, it is almost as good as the Japanese ghost movie half a century ago, but at least it is better than nothing, and it finally allows everyone to see the road clearly without using a flashlight.

So they didn't delay any longer, and immediately ran all the way to the elevator in the surgery area.

Soon, under Zhang Ying's guidance, they found the special elevator for maintenance of the civil air defense fortification.

It was at the corner of the wall, and there was a pillar on the outside. If it wasn't for someone's reminder, under such dim lighting conditions, no one would have noticed that there was a small, inconspicuous elevator in that place.

Ji Thrush and the others ran over in surprise.

For a moment, they had a sense of ecstasy that they would be able to escape immediately.

But this surprise only lasted two seconds.

Because they immediately saw that although the panel of the elevator was on, it displayed the words "under maintenance".

When Zhang Ying saw the panel, her mind went blank.

Although she knew the password to enter the elevator, it could only be used when the elevator was in the "running" state.

As for "under inspection" - she didn't have a key, and she didn't have any knowledge of starting the elevator, and she couldn't even open the door.

"What, what should I do?"

She was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

She was the one who had suggested shelter in a bomb shelter, and now that the entrance was just under their feet, and they couldn't get in - nothing could be more hopeless than that.

"E-or, let's go in through the entrance over the parking lot..."

Zhang Ying said what she could think of, the last way.

"No, it's too late."

Ji Thrush shook his head, "It's too far away, and it's too dangerous."

They don't know when those dog-faced ape-body monsters will come after them, and they're not sure how many of them there are, or whether there will be more, more terrifying, and more dangerous creatures. .

It was too risky to go back outside in the dark and go around the entrance to the rear of the parking lot.

"How about we just find a room with a stronger door and hide?"

Mo Tiangen suggested: "Doesn't your hospital have an MRI room?"

According to his common sense, the rooms where large-scale radiation-radiating instruments are inspected have lead doors that are inch thick, which cannot be broken by an axe, so it should be quite safe.

"Yes, yes yes..."

The sister nurse's lips trembled, "But now the whole hospital is cut off except for the power supply of the civil air defense, and we can't open the door of the radiology examination room!"

When Mo Tiangen heard this, he almost went crazy.

He didn't want to go back to that damn electrician's room again and wonder if the hospital had backup power supplies that would work at a time like this, and if they were capable of turning them off.

"… I have an idea."

Ji Thrush thought for a while, then suddenly pointed to the elevator door.

"Let's pry open this door and see if we can climb down the elevator shaft..."
