Chapter 13 : Molotov Cocktail

Continuously pushing aside the weeds blocking the road ahead, Brian looked up and observed a message on the side of the factory building, hoping to find a passage to enter. From time to time, he turned his head to look ahead, alert to dangers that might appear at any time.

"Um?"

Just as he was struggling to cross a bunch of obstacles, some tiny gaps that appeared on the edge of the factory building next to him suddenly caught his attention.

When he came closer, Brian squatted down and pressed the iron sheet with a gap. Unexpectedly, as soon as he exerted force, the place suddenly sunk in, and the curved iron sheet revealed the hidden gaps on the side.

Seeing this, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said to himself: "My guess is indeed correct. These guys have indeed left a way out for themselves."

In fact, this is not difficult to guess. In a place like this fights and conflicts are commonplace. No one knows what will happen next second, so these people often leave themselves a way out, especially when This kind of place with a fixed base is even less likely to have only one entrance and one exit.

Brian looked up and looked at the general location. He had arrived at the back of the factory.

He gently removed the entire piece of iron sheet, then bent down and looked inside, and found that it was an office with a desk and chairs in the middle, and a sofa next to the door.

"This is it!"

Having found an entrance into the factory, Brian quickly stood up and walked quickly towards the other end of the factory. He was going to call Sarah over and tell her that he had found an entrance.

On the other end, Sarah was holding an iron rod and walking slowly on the spacious road and was also carefully searching for an entrance into the factory.

But she discovered that beside the factory here, there were warnings written in red paint near the door, such as "Don't open the door!", "There is a monster inside!" and so on.

"Strange, who wrote this."

Sarah didn't notice that when she was carefully looking at the red letters on the side of the factory building, there was an abandoned car behind her on the other side. An infected person was slowly standing up from the ground. When it saw the presence of prey, it roared excitedly and rushed towards the opponent.

The sudden movement behind her shocked Sarah. She had clearly checked her surroundings just now to see how there could be an infected person behind her.

This scene immediately reminded her of what happened to the young black woman in the convenience store, and she thought she had encountered the same "evolved" infected person.

This realization made Sarah feel scared. She knew that she was no match for that kind of monster, but she didn't want to die here, she wanted to continue living.

The belief in survival allowed her to overcome the fear in her heart. She suddenly waved the iron rod in her hand and swung it behind her without looking back. It happened that the infected person rushed in front of her at this moment, and she heard "bang" With a loud sound, the iron rod hit it squarely on the head.

But the infected person only sluggishly sluggish for a while, and then pounced on it again. Although this blow hit it on the head, because Sarah was too young and her strength was too limited, it did not cause much damage. 

But this also allowed Sarah, who turned around, to see that there was just an ordinary infected person behind her. This discovery made her feel relieved a little. Although ordinary infected people are also very dangerous, they are better than those who lurk. 

Seeing the newly infected person rushing towards her, Sarah nimbly dodged the opponent's bite. Then, looking at the right moment, she hit the opponent on the back of the head with a stick, but it still only delayed him for a moment and did not hit him. 

The infected person immediately turned around and pounced on it again, but this time she still easily dodged it and hit it on the head with another stick. After repeating this several times, Sarah found that she was getting more and more able to avoid the opponent's attacks. 

Now the infected person was very angry. Are you treating me as a chance to gain experience? The more you thought about it, the angrier it became. It roared angrily and tried to pounce on her again.

"ah....."

But just in the middle of the infected person's scream, a bright dagger suddenly appeared behind it and stabbed its head fiercely, causing the roar to stop suddenly. Then the infected person fell to the ground helplessly. But its eyes were still staring at the little girl in front of it as if it was unwilling to rest in peace.

Brian pulled out the dagger, walked quickly in front of Sarah, looked back and forth on her body, and asked with a concerned look: "How are you, are you hurt?"

"I'm not." Seeing the concerned look on Brian's face, Sarah smiled and waved the iron rod in her hand, and said with a smile: "No, I just taught him a severe lesson! "

"Okay, no matter what, if you encounter this kind of situation again in the future, you must call for help, you know!" Seeing Sarah actually laughing, Brian didn't know what to say to her, so he could only helplessly Shake his head.

"Where did this guy come from?"

Hearing Brian's inquiry, Sarah pointed to the back of the scrapped car and said, "It should be behind that car. I was reading those red words, and this guy suddenly appeared behind me."

After saying that, she subconsciously looked back behind her. Although she didn't show it on her face, this incident really made her feel very frightened. At the same time, she secretly warned herself that she must always pay attention to the situation behind her in the future.

Following the direction of his fingers, Brian came to the back of the abandoned vehicle and saw a bucket of red paint with a not-too-thick book on it. A brush fell next to it, and there were messy things on the ground. There are handprints and shoeprints, and it is obvious that the infected person just appeared from here.

Picking up the book on the paint bucket, Brian flipped through it curiously. Sarah next to him saw it and quickly came up to take a look.

The above record is a diary written by the infected person during his lifetime, but it seems to have been written recently, so there is very little content in it, but Brian still found some key information in it:

September 10, 2013

I didn't expect that I would have time to write a diary. I have been trapped here for 4 days. The food has become less and less, but these monsters are still staying outside. Damn it, can't they go somewhere else? 

I can't wait any longer, I have to do something, there aren't many of them, maybe I should take the initiative?

....

September 11, 2013

Ha ha!

These monsters only rely on their eyes to find prey. They are such a bunch of idiots. They didn't even know I was sneaking up on them.

I remember that guy from Ford left a car for his brother Morris. Hey, that guy must have died if he hadn't shown up for so long. Sure enough, even God is on my side.

But there seem to be some very strange-looking things there. Half of the head is wrapped in disgusting mushrooms. But it's good that the monster has no eye, so it's easier to deal with. I'll kill them all tomorrow. And solve them all.

....

September 12, 2013

What a fool I am, that blind monster was able to determine my location from the sound. Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough and locked him in the factory, but this monster actually grabbed me, damn it.

I wrote some warnings with red paint on the door of the factory, which should be able to tell some people that there is danger inside. After working for a long time, I feel a little tired. Well, let's rest in the car and leave here...

....

The last time in the diary was the day before yesterday. Apparently, this person was infected by fungus after that.

Brian closed the notebook silently and turned to look at the factory. Judging from what was written in the log, there must be "evolved" infected here, and these "evolved" infected already is sensitive With hearing, it can detect subtle sounds nearby, and he no longer rely solely on sight to search for targets.

Although it may be very dangerous inside, this does not stop him from planning to continue entering the factory.

"Hey, I found a hole over there and we can go in."

As he spoke, he put away the diary in his hand, waved his hand, and led Sarah towards the other side of the factory.

After getting in through the hole in the factory building, the two of them entered the office smoothly. Sarah looked at the desk next to her and instantly remembered the hidden space written on Brian's letter. She quickly knelt down to observe the office. What's going on under the table?

Sure enough, she saw an obvious sunken place on the ground, but this place was half pressed by the desk. If she wanted to take out the contents, she would have to move the desk. The moving sound would definitely alert the outside infection. Or, thinking of this, Sarah turned her head and cast a questioning look at Brian.

"Don't worry, let's take care of the infected outside first."

Brian was not unprepared for this operation. Ever since he learned about the existence of "evolved" infected, he had been hypothesizing how to deal with them if they encountered them during this trip.

So he tried his best to recall the movies and games he had watched before, hoping to find weapons that were easy to make and could cause considerable damage, and the "Molotov cocktail" that was easy to make was his first choice.
