Chapter 277 Weird Events
Suddenly, the bystanders screamed again, and this time, their voices were filled with more fear. They looked at the ground in front of the car and backed away. Some of them lowered their heads and frantically searched for their phones, not knowing whether they wanted to call the police or take photos.
You Xi frowned and moved a few steps to the left. From this angle, he could just bypass the front of the car and see clearly what was happening in front of the car.
The driver also backed away with the bystanders. He probably suffered the greatest impact because he was standing closest.
The person who was hit in front of the car stood up at some point, but his arms and calves were bent at an abnormal angle, as if they were broken.
His body was covered in blood, his pupils were out of focus, and his expression was blank. He looked like he was seriously injured after being hit, but he didn't feel any pain on his face. Not only could he stand up by himself, he even limped forward.
Every time he took a step forward, the people around him screamed and took a step back.
Zombie?
You Xi guessed, but soon denied this guess.
The man was so close to the others. If it was a zombie, it would have jumped up and bit them. Although he moved in a strange and sneaky way, he was not aggressive to the people around him for the time being.
In the crowd of onlookers, someone finally successfully called for help. After explaining the scene in front of him with a trembling voice, the man hung up the phone and said that the rescuers would be here soon, and asked everyone not to approach.
The person who was hit staggered and walked one step at a time, stopping two steps later, completely without any purpose, as if he was unconscious. But if he was unconscious, how could he stand up and walk?
Passers-by did not dare to stop him, but he did not walk far. After walking about seven or eight meters, he suddenly fell to the ground, with blood gushing out of his mouth.
You Xi noticed that the blood the man spat out was dark red.
How could it be? Isn't blood usually bright red?
And as more and more blood spilled, the stench in the air became more and more obvious.
When she filled up the car and the portable gas can with gas, the rescuers arrived. Not only ambulances came, but also several military jeeps. Fully armed rescuers brought a stretcher and lifted the person who was hit onto the stretcher and secured him.
Many fully armed troops got off the jeeps and quickly and orderly put up cordons at the scene of the incident. Some people also found the driver who hit the person and other onlookers, first asked to understand the situation, and then asked everyone to follow them back, saying that they wanted to make a simple record.
The driver was fine, because he was the cause of the accident and he must go back, but the other onlookers were unwilling to go. They were just watching the excitement, and they were not the ones who hit the person, so why should they go back?
They think they have human rights, and they refuse to cooperate if the other party cannot give a reasonable reason.
This kind of situation is the norm in a city with a Western background, but this time the refusal was ineffective. After the polite invitation failed, the troops took action directly and took away all the people nearby.
When the chaos broke out, Youxi was sitting in a jeep opposite the gas station, observing the situation silently.
Although she could observe the situation more closely from the gas station, she sensed something unusual after seeing several military jeeps, and the strange situation of the person who was hit, so she quickly left from another exit of the gas station and parked the car on the other side of the road.
Sure enough, after the troops took the driver and onlookers into the car, other troops began to expand the guardrail and block the entire gas station.
Youxi did not stay for long, and started the car and left quickly.
**
From the map, the entire Fran City is very large, about five to six times larger than the Wukong City she visited for the first time. In addition to the urban area, it also includes several suburban towns and a military base.
According to the location sent by the individual, Xiyuan is in a town called Aoduo near the military base. The four of them, except Lin Wu, are scattered in different neighborhoods of Fran City, and the distance between them is relatively far.
Lin Wu is in a town southwest of the city. Although it also belongs to Fran City, it is actually out of the city area.
Xiyuan's identity this time is an employee of a supermarket in the town. According to some memories of the natives, it can be inferred that this time, the map of the entire site includes the urban area of France, several surrounding towns, the military base in the north, and the large forest and Fran Lake in the east.
The place where he appeared was the lounge inside the supermarket in the town. His residential house was about ten minutes' walk from the supermarket. It was a small villa, but it had a front lawn and was more than enough for five people.
He originally thought that he was lucky. The surrounding resources were abundant and the town was not populated. He could consider letting others move in his direction.
But before he could send a message to them, the military arrived and locked up all the shops on the street one by one, taking away all the staff at the same time, saying that there was an emergency and they needed to conduct disinfection and inspection.
When You Zhenzhen was talking about the endless currency in the group, he had just sat in the military truck. Because there were many people around, the message was sent secretly.
At this moment, Xiyuan had already completed the inspection and was being quarantined at a temporary inspection station near the base. It was said that as long as everything was normal for 24 hours, he would be able to leave soon.
The quarantine space was very small and there was no camera, so he contacted them again. At the same time, because all the quarantined people would have their mobile phones searched, he didn't want the troops to notice that there was a signal transmission, so he used a mobile phone from the Endless Train World.
Some settings of the aboriginals told him that something very strange had happened in this town before. The military blockade and disinfection were routine. As long as there was no problem after the inspection, you could get an entry and exit pass and move around in the safe zone they had divided.
Because this town was closest to the base, the troops directly included it in the shelter area, and were disinfecting and expanding the safe zone bit by bit.
In Xiyuan's view, he was not incapable of escaping, but this time he had to live here for 44 days, in a restricted map, and against the military base on the map, which was not a rational choice.
So he chose to follow and leave and wait and see.
Fortunately, it seems that the troops' actions are normal at present, but the atmosphere within the troops is very tense.
This kind of tension only spread within the small area of the town where he was previously, and the people of the entire Fran city were not aware of it.
You Zhenzhen curiously typed: What weird thing happened?
Xiyuan: Corpse theft, the body in the hospital morgue disappeared, and two days later, body fragments were found in a pasture outside the town... Of course, it was just hearsay, the news did not report it, and it was only circulated in a small area, and most people were unaware of it.
Tang Yatong: No, maybe some people knew about it, but they were not in the right direction.
Lin Wu: What do you mean?
Tang Yatong: I’m here in the west of the city. A group of students and parents brought reporters to demonstrate outside the police station. It seems that some of their classmates were taken away during a gathering before, and they have not been released yet. This happened about five days ago. It is not clear why they were taken away, but according to what they said to the reporter, those students were not allowed to contact their families for five days, and they could not give a reasonable explanation.
You Zhenzhen: It is indeed a city with a Western background and free folk customs...
You Xi: 44 days is not short. Xiyuan will take more than 20 hours to get out. Let’s agree on a gathering place first, and then stock up as much as possible on the way to the gathering. It is easy to get fuel here. Zhenzhen has a large space, so we can also stock up a moderate amount.
You Zhenzhen: I understand!
Lin Wu: For the time being, we can choose Zhenzhen as the gathering place. She is in the northeast of the city, and is the closest to the town of Aoduo in Xiyuan among all of us, but it is still some distance away. If the situation in Aoduo Town is good, we will go there to gather. According to previous experience, it is also easy to refresh the mission information and find the hidden station there. If not, we will go directly east from Fran City. That is where Fran Lake is located. We have a boat, so we can take shelter on the lake temporarily and then return to the city depending on the situation.
You Zhenzhen: Considering the lake, what kind of boats did you stockpile before?
Lin Wu: In Youxi, it is a rubber boat, and we also stockpile a propeller propulsion engine.
You Zhenzhen: ...Forget it, I'll go to the lake first and see if I can get a real boat nearby. I'm going to the nearest hotel to get a big suite. I'll tell you the address and room number later. You guys come over slowly.
The five people in the team are all very reliable, and the communication progress is fast and effective.
After everyone finished discussing, they all started to act.
Youxi put away her phone and prepared to run to the fifth gas station. The 30-cubic-meter fuel tank was more than half full, but it was still a long way from her 30,000 liters.
This is an A-level station. If something happened, it should have reached a stage by now. Her intuition told her that the current peace would not last long, and she must seize the early peace time.
**
Youxi's intuition has always been accurate, but this time, the situation changed faster than she expected.
The place where she randomly appeared was just south of Fran City. According to the plan, she went all the way to the northeast to meet up with You Zhenzhen, but when she passed a certain neighborhood, she encountered a big traffic jam.
At this time, she had just finished buying fuel at the sixth gas station. According to her route plan, she originally planned to go to a large supermarket in front to stock up again.
But she didn't expect that Fran City, which has a small population, would have such a big traffic jam.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, she got out of the car to check the situation and found that many drivers around had climbed onto the roof of the car to check the situation ahead.
The road she was driving on was not the main road with traffic jams. The one that was completely blocked was the horizontal road in front. According to the driver in the front row, this road has been blocked for more than half an hour. It seems that there are people gathering and marching in front.
Youxi stepped forward and asked the insider: "May I ask what the reason for the march?"
"Who knows! I don't know what's going on recently, I keep hearing about some inexplicable things... I have a friend whose girlfriend is a nurse in a hospital. I don't know what happened, the whole hospital was suddenly sealed off... Even the patients inside were all taken away. Some people said that on the day the hospital was sealed off, they heard a lot of screams coming from inside, and his girlfriend hasn't returned home yet! How can the people not be in turmoil when the managers do things like this!"
Youxi frowned: "Is the hospital you are talking about in the town of Aoduo?"
"No, it's in the west of the city. Because the hospital is sealed off, the situation in the west of the city is quite tense, and traffic control is implemented in the streets near the hospital..." When
the man said this, Youxi's mobile phone vibrated again. It was a message from Tang Yatong.
She said that she encountered traffic control and could not go straight to meet up for the time being, and now she was trying to find a way to go around.
Afterwards, Lin Wu and You Zhenzhen also said that there were areas with traffic control nearby, some of which started today, and some had started for several days.
But similarly, the news about the regional blockade was not reported in the news.
Because the city of Fran is very large, many people only go to and from work in one area, and people who have not been to other areas have no idea about the blockade and control.
You Xi was checking the messages on her mobile phone, and she heard a burst of bangs coming from the traffic jam ahead. She locked the car door and jogged to the crossroads ahead, found a cafe with a balcony, and quickly climbed up to the second-floor balcony to look ahead.
At the end of the road, the marchers were blocked by armed personnel. They held weapons and shields and demanded that the marchers disperse immediately and not gather to block the road. However, the marchers were unwilling to listen.
They felt that their rights and interests were threatened. They expressed that they would not accept unreasonable restrictions and demanded that the other party must pay attention to the feelings of the people.
A large number of people were full of fighting spirit, holding up signs and banners in their hands and shouting slogans.
For a while, the surroundings were filled with the sound of marchers shouting slogans, which completely suppressed the voices of the armed personnel. The people who were blocked on this road and the people who came out of the shops and restaurants on the road to watch the excitement could not hear the voices of the armed personnel clearly.
They only found that those fully armed people suddenly became alert and headed towards a certain direction of the corner of the parade with their weapons .
