Chapter 74: Anomaly

Brian looked at the three people who came from outside, looked at the quilts in their hands, and sighed secretly. Although he handed over all the supplies, he still had the tent that Tracy took care of, plus these quilts, at least They won't get cold tonight.

"Um?"

But when he glanced at Wilfred's face, his brows wrinkled unconsciously. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the other person's condition, and his whole face looked a little lethargic. Maybe it was Due to the light, it appeared that his eyes were slightly dark, and he looked in a very bad condition.

"Wilfred, I think you don't seem to be in good spirits, are you okay?" When the three of them came closer, Brian looked at Wilfred and asked with concern.

Putting the quilt in his hand inside the tent, Wilfred was shocked when he heard Brian's words. He subconsciously covered his wrists and pretended not to care and said: "I'm fine. It may be what I experienced today." It was too much, so I felt a little tired."

"Yeah?"

His eyes still glanced at Wilfred's body. For some reason, Brian always felt that something was wrong.

However, seeing the other party seemed to be nothing serious, he could only secretly think that he might have been thinking too much, and then he didn't ask any more questions. After eating all the bread in his hand, he opened the book in his hand again.

Seeing that Brian was not paying attention to him, Wilfred immediately breathed a sigh of relief, touched his face, and thought to himself, is it so obvious?

"Dad, if you are tired, go and rest quickly." After listening to Brian's words, Anna turned her head and saw that her father's face was not very good, and she quickly wanted him to go to the tent to rest.

"I'm not sleepy yet. We will leave tomorrow. You should go and rest first." Seeing his daughter's concerned expression, Wilfred patted her daughter's hand with relief. When he said that he was leaving tomorrow, his face changed. There was a slight feeling of joy on his face.

The two persuaded each other several times, but in the end Anna couldn't resist her father, so she had no choice but to go into the tent to rest alone.

Looking at his daughter's back, Wilfred breathed a sigh of relief, then clenched his fists slightly, his eyes full of determination.

Next to him, Lucy, who was wiping her body with a piece of wet milk obtained from unknown sources, noticed something strange about Wilfred and glanced at him, her face full of surprise. After all, he was not the same as these people. We were familiar with each other, so I didn't ask any questions and just went about my own business.

As time passed, the entire reception hall gradually became quiet. Everyone knew that they would go to the quarantine area tomorrow, and they also knew that after tomorrow, they would have only two outcomes, either they would be in the quarantine area, or they would be in the quarantine area. Died on the way to the quarantine area.

So after nine o'clock, most of them went to their tents and fell asleep early to replenish energy for the final journey tomorrow.

"Ha~~"

Feeling a little tired, Brian couldn't help but snort, put the book in his hand aside, got up and prepared to go to the tent to sleep.

But as soon as he stood up, he found that Wilfred hadn't fallen asleep either, and asked curiously: "Aren't you sleeping?"

Seeing that Brian seemed to be going to sleep, Wilfred's eyes flashed with joy. He coughed twice and pretended to be nonchalant and said, "You go to sleep first. I'm thinking about something, so I'll go to sleep right away."

Hearing this, Brian could naturally tell that the other party was trying to prevaricate him, but he didn't pay attention. He just said "oh", entered the tent, and lay down next to Sarah.

Maybe she sensed Brian's arrival. In her sleep, Sarah turned sideways instinctively, raised her head slightly, and hugged him in her habitual octopus-like posture.

Feeling Sarah's movements, Brian also had a accustomed expression. He put his arms under Sarah's head and turned his body slightly to provide the most comfortable sleeping position for her.

At the door of the tent, Wilfred listened to the steady breathing inside, and felt relieved. Now he was finally the only one left. He suddenly felt very tired, but as soon as he had this thought, he threw it away immediately. Shaking his head, he braced himself to keep himself from falling asleep.

He couldn't fall asleep, he had to hold it back, at least he couldn't fall asleep before his daughter entered the isolation area. He covered his wrist again, feeling that his body was slightly out of his control, and he kept thinking in his heart. warned myself.

In this silent reception hall, only Wilfred was struggling hard. If there was a mirror here at this time, he would be able to find that there were several bloodshot eyes in his eyes.

...

Early on the morning of the first day, Brian was awakened by the movement outside the tent. He slowly opened his eyes and looked outside. He found that there were many people moving outside. He raised his watch and looked at it. Look, I found it was six o'clock.

He glanced inside the tent, only Anna, Alan and Sarah were still there. Lucy was no longer there at this time. As for Wilfred, who didn't see each other sleeping near the tent last night, he should have gotten up anyway.

Untying Sarah like an octopus with ease, Brian climbed out of the tent with ease. He found that most of the survivors were staying in the tent. He ate up the remaining food and replenished it. Work hard.

He searched everywhere in the reception hall, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find Wilfred and Lucy. He couldn't help scratching his head and said strangely: "Huh? Where did they go?"

Seeing that searching for the two people inside was fruitless, Brian saw that it was indeed getting late, so he stopped looking. After all, could the two living people be lost? He turned around, patted the tent vigorously, and shouted inside: "We're about to leave, get up quickly!"

Along with his shouting, the three people who were still sleeping soundly in the tent turned their bodies around, rubbed their eyes with their hands, and woke up in a daze.

Seeing that they all woke up, Brian stopped shouting, picked up his backpack, and walked out.

Pushing open the door, the change in temperature difference between inside and outside made Brian shiver coldly. At this time, there were many survivors in the outside world, and they were all moving their bodies to adapt to the cold outside.

Suddenly, he discovered that all the Hunters who were kneeling at the door last night were gone. He looked around outside and found no sign of this person. He shook his head secretly, knowing that he was going to set off today. People will definitely deal with it in advance.

But the end result is probably that one of them will die. After all, if they are allowed to leave like this, more survivors who have not yet arrived will be harmed by them. This is something no one wants to see.

"Good morning, Brian!"

At this moment, Lucy appeared from nowhere. She wiped the sweat from her forehead, walked to Brian's side and greeted him.

Hearing the sound, Brian turned around and saw Lucy wearing a thin shirt, short hair and face covered with sweat. She looked like she had just been exercising.

He looked at the other person's exposed arms, felt the cold wind blowing by, raised his eyebrows and asked: "You are wearing so little, aren't you cold?"

"Haha, it's okay. I've been like this all the time. I'm used to it." Lucy said this problem casually as she was used to it.

Then she wanted to go into the reception hall, but as soon as she took steps, she seemed to suddenly think of something. After hesitating for a while, she still said: "Go and see Wilfred, his condition. ..something doesn't seem right."

"What do you mean?" After hearing this, Brian was stunned for a moment, then frowned, wondering why the other party would say such a thing.

Lucy shrugged and said nothing, but pointed her finger in a direction, where Wilfred was waving his limbs under a tree, moving here and there.

"Ting, I'll go over and take a look. After you go in, ask Sarah and the others to pack up quickly. They should be setting off soon."

After saying goodbye to Lucy, Brian walked straight in the direction of Wilfred.

At first, he didn't know what Lucy meant by what she just said, but when he saw Wilfred's face, he immediately understood what it meant. Looking at that face with a haggard appearance and dark circles under his eyes, , his face with bloodshot eyes completely lost his former energy, and he was immediately shocked on the spot.

Brian stood on the ground and looked at Wilfred in surprise. He didn't know why the other party became like this, and asked with some uncertainty: "You...how did you become like this! Didn't you sleep last night?" "

"Ahem..."

Wilfred had already seen Brian coming from a distance, and had already thought about his words. Now he noticed the way the other person looked at him, raised his hand and put it to his mouth, clenched his fist, and coughed lightly. Twice, he explained in a slightly hoarse tone: "I couldn't sleep last night, so I didn't sleep all night."

"We're going to Atlanta later, don't worry about it." Brian looked at the other party's poor state and said worriedly, wondering how the other party could become like this.

"It's okay." Wilfred waved his hand, patted his chest, braced himself and said, "It's just that I haven't slept all night. I can still bear it. I'll get some sleep when I get into the quarantine area." If you don't want to come, please come."

After hearing Wilfred's explanation, Brian nodded, still a little worried and looked at the other person's body, but then his eyes stayed on the other person's gloved hands, and asked a little strangely: "Why? Wearing gloves?"

"ah?"

Seeing Brian asking about his gloves, Wilfred's expression instantly became nervous, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and chuckled and said: "I got it by accident just now, don't wear it." Don't you want to wear it?"

Then he glanced at something from the corner of his eye, and seeing that Brian wanted to continue saying something, he quickly pointed over there and said, "Look, the motorcade is passing by, let's hurry up and get ready to set off!"
