Chapter 163 Hai City's Total Rout



Haishi began to flee across the board.

The fugitives were divided into two groups. One group followed the official, led by General Qian Qingyu. In order to escape as quickly as possible, they traveled light and abandoned their tanks.

Armored vehicles were deployed to protect the roads, and high-performance, highly mobile tactical trucks were used to transport the elderly, the weak, and the disabled.

The young and strong ones followed the other soldiers on foot.

The other part is the spontaneous escape of individuals.

Some of them drive jeeps with excellent performance, high-clearance SUVs, some drive buses, but most of them walk.

Soon they gathered together and moved forward.

However, due to traffic congestion, serious road damage, and sporadic explosions caused by zombies chasing after them,

The escape did not go smoothly.

When encountering severe congestion, everyone has to abandon their cars and walk. Among the things originally piled in the car, they can only choose the most important ones to take with them, and the rest have to be discarded one by one.

A young couple, they must have just gotten married, their faces still have a vision for the future,

Even the high temperature and zombies could not wipe away the hope on their faces.

But the horrific explosion that was about to destroy Haishi turned the hope on their faces into despair, and they were filled with fear and confusion about the future.

The woman opened the jewelry boxes one by one, looking at the gold ornaments and jade bracelets reluctantly.

There is also a thick book of wedding photos.

"This is the gold bracelet my parents gave me when we got married. It weighs 66 grams and symbolizes a smooth journey for us."

"This is the gold lock my sister gave me. She hopes I can lock up my happiness."

"And this one, this is a jade bracelet my best friend gave me..."

She suddenly put down the gold jewelry and grabbed the wedding photo.

However, a pair of hands reached out, took the wedding photo, put it in the car, and picked up a bag of instant noodles and put it in her arms.

"Let's go, let's go. Life is the most important thing now. These gold and silver, these..."

"When we settle down, when the disaster is over, when the world becomes better, I will earn money for you and buy it for you."

The man's words gave the woman great comfort. She didn't dare to say the uncertain words, but just held his hand tightly and walked forward.

Not far away, a middle-aged couple was also packing what they could from the trunk.

The two men's faces were filled with irritation and fear, and they quarreled fiercely from time to time.

The woman muttered, "These homeworks must be taken with us. No matter where we go, the children's studies must not be interrupted!"

The man angrily said, "It's already this late, and you're still thinking about giving your child homework. Are you crazy?!"

The woman yelled back, unyielding, and brought up the past: "You're the one with a mental problem! What have you done in all these years? Have you ever supervised your child's studies? His grades are already at the bottom of the class!"

The man was even more furious: "I work like a jerk at the company all day long, working like a jerk to make money. Isn't that enough? And you, on the other hand, just do chores around the house and help the kids. You can't even do these little things!"

The woman was hit in the sore spot, breathing rapidly, staring at the man in front of her angrily:

"So you're having an affair with that vixen in your company. You're disgusted with me, right? Who said they'd support me forever? You ungrateful bastard!"

There was a hint of panic on the man's face, but he quickly calmed down.

Because he knew very well that even if his wife knew, she couldn't do anything to him.

Instead, he used this incident to blame his wife.

"It's because you're lazy and unfeminine. You've become fatter and fatter since you gave birth. I feel sick just looking at you!"

The girl rushed over angrily and started fighting with the boy, and the homework was scattered all over the floor in an instant.

The child in the car screamed in fear a few times, but neither of them heard him. He opened the car door and ran away alone, without the couple noticing...

Further away, next to an abandoned car, a paralyzed old man asked his son to carry him on his back.

The son agreed.

Carry your mother on your back.

The son felt his back was wet, it was his mother's tears.

"Mom, don't cry. Don't worry, I will take you away even if I have to."

The old man wiped his tears but smiled.

"Okay, put me down, I want to rest for a while."

"Well, I just remembered when you were little and your mother carried you on her back while walking down the street at night... I sang a song for you back then. Do you remember?"

The son nodded.

"Remember, remember, Mom, I'll sing it for you."

"Wearing big red flowers on their heads and big red coats, we are going back to my parents' home together... A chicken in my left hand, a duck in my right hand, and a fat baby on my back, a fat, fat baby..."

"Mom, what are you doing, Mom—"

As his son sang, the old man hit his head against a rock.

The old man went with a smile.

In another place, an old man begged his son and daughter-in-law,

"Please, don't abandon me. I'm already so old and I don't have many years left to live. I just want to die by your side."

His son and daughter-in-law quickly packed up the food in the car, and only his grandson looked at him from time to time.

Finally, the grandson couldn't help it,

"Mom and Dad, take Grandpa with you."

The daughter-in-law yelled angrily and slapped her grandson on the face.

"Take him? Take him and you'll take care of him? He can't do anything and needs to eat and drink! These are life-saving supplies. Give it to him?"

Although my son didn't say anything, it was the same as if he had said it.

The old man loves his grandson.

"Hey, don't hit the child, don't hit him...Okay, go away, go away..."

The hope disappeared from the old man's eyes.

The daughter-in-law grabbed her grandson's hand and said to him with a sullen face:

"Dad, don't blame us for being cruel. We also want to take you with us, but you can see the current situation. We don't have enough food to feed our family. The future... whether we even have a future is uncertain!"

After she finished speaking, she pulled her grandson's hand hard and left.

The son also followed and left.

The old man stayed there alone, and soon his son came back.

Hope rekindled in his eyes, but his son just handed him a packet of instant noodles.

"Dad, this is all I can give you..."

The old man took the instant noodles woodenly and said nothing more.

Similar things are happening everywhere.
