Chapter 77: Passage outside the office building

"you!"

Brian raised his head and looked into Wilfred's eyes, hearing the shock in his tone. He gave him a reassuring look, and then patted the other person's arm, signaling him to hurry up.

Pursing his lips, Wilfred realized that there were people around him, and it was not when he was asking questions. He took a deep breath, stuffed the empty vial into his jacket pocket, and picked up the root. Fill the syringe with liquid.

Then he pulled down the glove with his left hand slightly, and the slight tug seemed to pull the wound inside. Another layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead, and his wrist was suddenly covered with hideous red fine lines. , exposed to the air.

Wilfred stared closely at the wound on his wrist that was spreading, getting bigger, and beginning to rot. He relaxed his arm slightly, vaguely raised the injection needle, pierced his wrist, and injected all the liquid in the needle.

"Huh~~"

Feeling the pain gradually disappearing from the wound, Wilfred immediately breathed a sigh of relief and felt relaxed all over. Then he stuffed the injection needle into his pocket and cast a grateful look at Brian.

Brian saw that the other party had used the injection, and his complexion had improved a lot. He was a little relieved. After thinking about it, he speeded up his pace slightly and walked towards the front of the team.

After squeezing through the front of the crowd, he glanced at Tracy, who was at the front. He quickened his pace a little more, walked beside her, and said softly: "Can I ask, are the other people going to other places?" Where is the place, or is it the same route as us?"

"Huh?" Tracy glanced at Brian who was suddenly close to her and asked with some confusion, "Why do you ask so suddenly?"

"Uh... I'm just asking out of curiosity."

After hearing this answer, Tracy suddenly showed a 'Do you think I would believe it?' expression on her face, but since Brian didn't want to say it, she didn't delve into it. It wasn't important news anyway.

"Of course other teams will not go the same way as us, otherwise if someone here makes a noise and alerts the infected, then the team behind them will fall into a trap!"

After getting the answer, Brian nodded his head, feeling a little relieved. After thanking him, he turned around and returned to the team.

Tracy turned her head and looked at the other person's leaving figure, narrowing her eyes slightly. She had already learned about Brian's mind, and she would not really treat him as a child, thinking that this was just a child's curiosity, so She was also particularly interested in the questions raised by the other party.

But after thinking for a while, she didn't think it over. There was no way. There were too few clues. She sighed softly and turned her attention back to being vigilant about the surroundings. After all, it was her job to lead the team to the isolation area safely. The first priority was that there was still some way to go anyway, so she could think about it slowly.

After the team walked along the street for more than ten minutes, Tracy suddenly raised her right hand, signaling everyone behind her to stop immediately, and then she quickly squatted down.

The person behind her felt nervous when she saw this, and immediately stopped, squatted down, and for a moment looked towards the front of the street.

In front of the road, I saw an apartment building that seemed to have been cut in half. Only the lower half of the building was left. Everyone looked at the other half of the building from an angle along the crack in the office building. Falling on the street. A piece of rubble and ruins formed, blocking their way forward.

Moreover, in front of the ruins, there was a dense crowd of countless infected people. They all had their heads drooped, making low roars from their mouths, and stood motionless on the street.

If Tracy hadn't been sharp-eyed and noticed the situation ahead in advance, even if they stopped, they would definitely be discovered by the infected people there when they got closer.

Seeing that the road ahead was blocked by infected people and ruins, people began to look uneasy. Some people with children and even adults covered their children's mouths, fearing that they would make any noise and alert the infected people ahead. .

Everyone turned their attention to Tracy, the leader in the front, hoping that the other party could tell him some other way forward.

Feeling the uneasiness of the crowd, a soldier approached Tracy and asked softly: "Captain, what should we do next? Do we need to change the route?"

"no!"

After hearing what the soldier said, Tracy immediately shook her head and said: "If we want to reach the safe zone safely, we must follow the determined plan. None of us know the infected person for the rest of the way." What location, so we have to pass through the barrier in front."

"But..." The soldier looked at Tracy's determined look, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't question it, and asked aloud: "Then where should we go next?"

Looking at the infected people and ruins ahead, Tracy did not immediately answer the other party's words. She was looking for other possibilities to move forward, but after looking at it for a while, she also found that there was no chance. The number of infected people In fact, there are too many.

So she decisively gave up the possibility of street traffic, moved her eyes to the buildings on both sides, and quickly searched. When she saw an office building, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Because she was in an office building that was ten floors high. She saw that outside the suspended building, a passage was built on the outside. It seemed to be to facilitate movement between two separate buildings. The passage continued to the inside. , just enough to reach the office building on the other side of the ruins.

Without hesitation, she raised her hand and Tracy pointed toward the office building and said to the crowd behind her: "Let's go to that office building. Let's go through the ruins from there!"

With the correct route in hand, the team moved again. This time after seeing the infected person in front of them, everyone's steps were extremely slow.

Although it took a relatively long time, they successfully arrived at the door of the office building safely.

Through the glass door, looking at the empty hall inside, Tracy made an action gesture, picked up the rifle, stretched out her hand to push the revolving door and several soldiers entered before, and then searched around, and after confirming that it was safe, After gesturing to the people outside, everyone entered the office building lobby one by one.

Next, the team moved upstairs, following the same steps. However, the entire floor was not cleaned. Instead, the nearby area was cleared. If there was a place where the door was closed, just move things there. The door to the room is blocked. If you encounter an infected person who is alone, you will stab him from behind with a dagger.

When they arrived on the tenth floor, it had already taken nearly an hour. Although the wait on each floor lasted several minutes, no one complained. After all, this was also a matter of their lives and safety.

Tracy opened the door through the outer passage of the building. The glass on the exterior wall here seemed to have been smashed by someone, revealing a huge gap. The cold wind blew into the room, blowing everything in the house down. Everywhere.

She walked to the gap and found that the guardrail of the passage facing the gap was broken. When she stepped on the iron pedal, she suddenly felt that the passage was being blown back and forth by a gust of wind, which scared her. He quickly reached out and grabbed the guardrail beside him.

Immediately afterwards, Tracy looked at the infected people (the infected people were dense below), but there were only scattered infected people on the other side of the ruins. It seemed that most of the infected people were blocked here by the ruins.

After confirming that there was no danger on the other side, she immediately withdrew her gaze, turned to face the crowd behind her, and said with a trembling tone: "You...you guys wait here first, I'll go ahead and explore the way first. "

Then Tracy stared straight ahead, couldn't help but swallow, grabbed the guardrails on both sides, and moved forward with difficulty.

The few soldiers who were waiting for these soldiers in the room couldn't help laughing when they saw Tracy's appearance. They quickly looked away, fearing that they would burst into laughter after a while.

Tracy was walking in the passage outside the building. Seeing that nothing happened if she took a few steps forward, she couldn't help but start to quicken her pace.

Although she had a slight fear of heights, it was not particularly serious. In addition, there were guardrails on both sides to protect her, and she did not look down the whole time. After a while, she reached the other end. Outside the single-story building.

Standing on her heels, Tracy let out a long sigh of relief, then raised her head and looked through the glass into the building inside.

Well... this is a conference room. There is no one in it, and there are no infected people. However, unlike the other side, the glass on the outer wall is intact, so she must first remove this layer of glass. Break it open.

Listening to the whistling wind in her ears, Tracy glanced at the group of infected people below again, took a deep breath, raised the rifle in her hand, aimed the butt at the corner of the glass on the exterior wall, and smashed it hard. .

The exterior glass of buildings like this is basically made of double-layer tempered glass. It is simply impossible to destroy it by hitting the center part manually, so its weaknesses must be targeted.

"Clang!"

As the butt of the gun hit the glass in the corner, there was a loud noise, and the entire glass suddenly turned white, and then the pieces fell off directly, and fell heavily from the tenth floor. It hit the heads of the infected people on the street.
