Chapter 257: Strange Path
Zhong Li sat quietly aside, observing the situation around him.
The strange thing is that there seems to be no trace of the people from the other bases, not even a shadow can be seen.
Could it be that these people have already escaped?
Even though Zhong Li was confused, he did not say much but waited quietly.
The other side.
Xing Shaoan and the other person wandered around the nearby parking lot.
"Why is this place so empty? Not even a car?"
Miao Xi spoke with some doubt. Normally, since this place is in the downtown area, there must be cars parked here.
There was not even a single car in the huge parking lot.
Extremely weird.
"When the apocalypse happened, this place was probably being renovated, so there weren't many people around."
"Of course there won't be any cars parked here. If we want to find it, we can only go to the open-air parking lot in front."
Xing Shaoan shrugged, then turned back to look at the girl in front of him, and couldn't help but smiled and responded, "Didn't you look at the map before?"
"You were still yelling and saying that Jiang Mi should rest assured that you would be able to find the car. Now it seems that you don't know the area. How are you going to find it?"
Xing Shaoan spoke with a smile, as if he was joking.
When Miao Xi heard this, her face turned red and she mumbled in response.
"Humph, you're a grown man, but you still want to hold on to my little braids. If I can find everything, why would I come out with you?"
Miao Xi said this and stuck out his tongue mischievously.
Xing Shaoan smiled bitterly upon seeing this.
This little girl is really interesting.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is."
"But the open-air parking lot is not safer than here. That place is completely exposed to everyone. Our enemies now are not just the Deformers."
"And those fools who wandered over from other bases!"
Calling them fools is giving them face.
After all, this group of people don't care about their own lives at all, and even think that there is nothing wrong with them coming here, which is simply ridiculous.
God knows how much of a threat their appearance poses to Jiang Mi and his team.
"After returning, Jiang Mi will definitely not let them go."
Xing Shaoan nodded in agreement.
The two chatted and laughed as they came to an open-air parking lot in the distance.
Sure enough, there are a lot of vehicles parked here.
However, after experiencing the last mutation, some vehicles have been completely abandoned, and some, although still usable, have become stuck in the middle of a traffic jam with multiple vehicles in a crisscross pattern.
Very few can actually be driven away.
Just as the two men were looking worried, they suddenly looked up and saw a large truck parked in front of them.
The truck was huge, with blood stains all around it.
It seems that some problems occurred at that time.
The door to the truck's cab was open, and there were no Aberrants inside.
"It seems that the driver had already fled at that time."
"yes."
The two men did not hesitate. After all, the bigger the car, the more convenient it would be for them.
Before he finished speaking, he climbed into the car and then came to the cockpit.
Everything about the car is normal and there is no problem. You can drive away directly.
It's just that the car seems to be running low on gas.
It shouldn't take long to drive.
"Let's not start the car yet, to prevent being discovered by those mutants outside. The best way is to find some gasoline from other vehicles first, which will be safer."
The two people had the same idea, so they quickly got out of the car and made corresponding marks here.
Then he started looking for gasoline nearby.
"Look, there seems to be an alley over there."
While searching for gasoline, they looked around, hoping to find a suitable exit. After all, the truck was quite large, and getting out of the parking lot was a problem.
"Yes, this alley is just big enough for trucks to enter and exit. The most important thing is that it is very clean and there are no obstacles on both sides!"
Miao Xi wrote it down with pen and paper, then returned to the rooftop at an extremely fast speed.
"You guys are back? Did you find the vehicle?"
Jiang Mi was happy to see the two return, so he started to ask.
Hearing this, Xing Shaoan nodded and recounted what had just happened from beginning to end.
"Not only did we find the vehicle, but we also got a lot of gasoline from other cars on the way back. We just need to get in the car and follow the route we found, which is the alley, and we can get directly to the laboratory."
Hearing this, Jiang Mi frowned slightly.
If there is an exposed open space, such as near a parking lot, and there are no mutant species, then it might be possible.
But.
According to what they said, there are no mutants in the alleys within the residential area. How is this possible?
Seeing that Jiang Mi was a little skeptical, Miao Xi hurriedly handed her the route map he had drawn.
"Look, there's really no problem with this."
"Yes, we checked everything carefully when we came back this time. You can get out by following this road, don't worry."
But Jiang Mi was still curious about this matter.
After a long while, he finally spoke.
"Just in case, I'll go with you guys.
The rest of the people will continue to stay near the rooftop to check the surroundings and let us know if there are any problems."
After saying this, two people turned around and walked forward.
Zhao Xiao seemed somewhat anxious.
"I'll go with you guys and see if the vehicle you found can successfully accommodate the instrument. After all, this kind of thing is very important, so don't cause any trouble."
Since Jiang Mi did not object, it meant that he agreed.
Several people moved forward quickly and arrived at the entrance of the alley they had found before.
From a distance, this place does look very clean.
There are no obstacles on both sides and the middle is empty, so it should not be a problem for trucks to pass through here.
However, Zhao Xiao noticed something was wrong.
"People say that if something is too weird, there must be something wrong."
"There are residential buildings on both sides, how can the middle be so clean? I think as soon as we enter the entrance of the alley, we will be besieged by these mutants."
"We should be more careful and explore carefully. If we are surrounded here, we will be unable to escape. What do you think?"
After he said this, he turned around and looked at Jiang Mi, as if waiting for a response.
Hearing this, Jiang Mi shrugged and nodded calmly.
"Your analysis of this matter is good. Let's do as you say and check it carefully."
After saying this, Jiang Mi directly used the second generation detection.
Finally, we started exploring in this area.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it, but you’ll be shocked when you do.
There are hundreds of deformed people in the residential buildings on both sides!
Fortunately, they did not rush in, otherwise their bodies would have been nowhere to be found by now.
"Look, what is that?"
Suddenly, Zhao Xiao screamed.
“Is that a rabbit?”
Not far from them, a deformed rabbit appeared.
