As the flames burned, the room began to warm up.
The three of them immediately untied the children on their backs and asked Xiao Yi to sit on the low sofa specially prepared for him.
The taller people just now used their arms to resist the zombies' attacks and gently put the child down on their backs. Through the firelight, Xiao Yi could clearly see the dense beads of sweat on his forehead due to the pain.
Xiao Yi didn't say anything polite. He walked over and started to warm himself by the fire without taking the initiative to speak.
The child seemed to be asleep. The man put him on the ground and propped him up with a sofa cushion. Xiao Yi couldn't see the child's specific appearance clearly.
At this time, the man who had just made the fire burn came over, helped the man who was enduring the pain to stand up, then untied the things wrapped around his hands and helped the man check.
After checking for a while, the man held the man's shoulder blade with one hand and pulled down hard with the other hand.
Kara
Xiao Yi even clearly heard the tearing sound of the man's arm completely falling off his shoulder.
But that person, even though he was shaking with pain, did not make a sound. He just clenched his trembling back teeth, revealing his true condition.
Just as Xiao Yi was marveling at the man's endurance, the man turned around and pressed his hips against the man's back, then used both hands to lift the man's arms upwards.
With a "crack", the bone was put back in place.
The man skillfully took out a black scarf from a backpack beside him and tied it around the man's shoulders in a cross shape.
After treating the man's injuries, another person on the other side completely blocked the door with a cabinet.
Finally, someone took the lead in breaking the eerie silence.
"Hello, thank you for saving us," the man who had just fixed his teammate's injured arm said to Xiao Yi with some caution.
It was only then that Xiao Yi realized that the person in front of him who was so calm and handled things in an orderly manner was actually a girl.
Xiao Yi did not accept his thanks, but asked: "What are you doing? Why are you bringing a child with you?"
At this time, the man who had just injured his arm untied his backpack, took out a stainless steel lunch box, threw some ice cubes into it and said, "I can't do anything during the holiday. I have to work overtime at the company with my children. I didn't expect that I can't go back."
Xiao Yi nodded: "You guys are amazing."
The person who finally put the child down on his back smiled bitterly in response to Xiao Yi's praise: "Alas, it's not great. Thanks to Han Guoguo, otherwise, the two of us with two children would either freeze to death or be bitten to death by zombies."
The girl whose name was called at this time asked Xiao Yi warily while adding firewood: "Why are you here so late? Judging from your appearance, you should not be the one trapped here."
Xiao Yi nodded: "Yes, I live not far from here, but there is nothing to eat at home, so I came out to find some food at night when there are few people."
"What are you three going to do with two kids?"
The three people who had just been doing their jobs were stunned by Xiao Yi's question. Then the girl named Han Guoguo replied, "The house I live in is not high. It was probably flooded a long time ago. I can't go back."
The other two also nodded in agreement.
Next, they gradually let down their guard against Xiao Yi and talked about their encounter.
It turned out that both men were veteran employees of the group's administrative department.
The group cares about its employees and allows divorced employees to bring their children to work without affecting their work.
Before the rainstorm broke out, a subsidiary of the group happened to come to the company headquarters for a study visit.
Fang Zheng and Yu Yang were called back to work overtime, so they had no choice but to bring their children here.
But at the same time, it was precisely because of this overtime work that they avoided the fierce and rapid rainstorm that flooded the city.
When he said this, Xiao Yi quickly grasped a key point of information.
The subsidiaries below came to the headquarters to visit and learn, so there are many people trapped in this building like them.
So Xiao Yi immediately asked his doubts.
Han Guoguo said with a hint of sadness in her voice: "I am from that subsidiary company. We had a conflict over the distribution of supplies on the third day of the extreme cold outbreak, so the three of us separated ourselves. Of the remaining 20 or so survivors, a few have turned into zombies and were eliminated by us, and the rest are nowhere to be found."
Xiao Yi listened to the stories of the three people and pieced together what had happened to them. He couldn't help but admire the girl a little.
People who are capable and courageous are indeed one of the most necessary groups to survive in the end times.
Xiao Yi did not hide the fact that he encountered someone being chased by zombies downstairs, and briefly described the specific clothing and voice characteristics.
It was confirmed that those people were the ones who had separated from Han Guoguo and the others before.
When Xiao Yi mentioned them, his tone was filled with uncontrollable disgust and irritation.
Correspondingly, the same is true for the three of them.
Faced with the way those people were running and screaming while howling like wolves, Han Guoguo and Fang Zheng were absolutely textbook correct.
While the water was boiling, everyone shared their experiences.
Finally, Yu Yang couldn't help but looked at Xiao Yi and asked sincerely: "Why did you save us? You are so strong that you can smash the zombie's head with a stick."
"Fighting alone, I don't know who would be your opponent. Similarly, in the apocalypse, meddling in other people's affairs is always despised, so I want to know why you saved us."
Xiao Yi didn't hesitate at all, and looked straight at the three people: "I stopped because I was curious. You were able to do it so accurately without making any sound, and then you discovered that there was a child."
