Chapter 590 Arrival in Hangzhou
That day, around 3:30 pm, the two of us arrived at the edge of Hangzhou.
It seems there's no snow in Hangzhou; there's no snow on the roads.
However, we did not enter Hangzhou from here, because we were on the northern edge of the city. From here, I saw through binoculars that there were quite a few people living in a primary school in the north, so for safety reasons, I decided to take a detour.
Although I really wanted to go in and ask if Wu Shuang was in this elementary school, I also knew that if two strangers like us appeared in front of them, it would definitely arouse their suspicion, and they might even kill us. So, before we figured out the situation, it was best for us to be careful.
First, enter Hangzhou and then explore the city.
When I left Hangzhou a year ago, the zombie outbreak had just begun. At that time, although there were many survivors, they were scattered throughout Hangzhou and mostly hid in places they considered safe. They wouldn't risk their lives to run out of their chosen places.
Eventually, some people will definitely emerge and begin to live together in unity and cooperation; this is a situation that is bound to occur.
Therefore, we must now find out the power dynamics in Hangzhou, how many survival teams there are, and their size. Only by finding out all of this can we successfully find Wu Shuang in Hangzhou.
Although I didn't have much hope of finding Wu Shuang, I still wanted to try and see if I could find her.
Hu Fei said, "Actually, if you go into Hangzhou to arrest and question people, they might not tell you the truth. If you ask me, we should go directly to that primary school, tell them our purpose in coming to Hangzhou, and then make some deals with them. That way we can find out what's going on in Hangzhou."
I said, "I've thought about doing that too, but it would cause serious problems."
"What's the problem?" Hu Fei asked.
I said, "That's despicable. What if they don't want to talk to us? What if they attack us as soon as we show up at their door? And even if we get inside, aren't you afraid they'll kill us and rob us if they find out we have a lot of guns in our car?"
Hu Fei raised an eyebrow: "If they really dare to do that, we might as well just kill them all."
I said, "So let's not go through all that trouble. Let's just carefully enter Hangzhou and ask around. As for whether they're telling us the truth, we'll see later."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Hangzhou is a very large city, and it's simply not feasible to walk around it. So I can only try to find a deserted place and then enter Hangzhou from there.
The intricacies of Hangzhou are exceptionally complex, and even if there are other people living around, it wouldn't be easy for them to find us.
And I've always had a suspicion.
With so many zombies in Hangzhou, I feel it's impossible for the people in Hangzhou to still be living in the city. Perhaps most of them have already left Hangzhou and moved to the suburbs or factories where there are fewer zombies.
Of course, they may also live in the mountains. We lived in the mountains for a while, but we left later.
If I go to Linshan now, I might actually run into someone.
To be honest, I really have to go to Linshan. After all, Wu Shuang's grave is there. If Wu Shuang really came back to life, then her grave would definitely be gone. I have to go and confirm it.
Hu Fei asked, "Have we entered Hangzhou now?"
"I guess so."
I said that we had driven to the edge of a residential area. No one lived in the area, but we could see a lot of zombies wandering around inside through the fence.
Hu Fei asked, "Where do we go now?"
I said, "Let's keep going towards Linshan. If we encounter anyone along the way, we'll stop them and ask them. If not, we'll just keep going towards Linshan."
Hu Fei knew why I wanted to go to Linshan, so he didn't ask any further questions.
He simply asked, "What if we get intercepted on the way?"
I said, "Then we'll have to fight our way out, but I hope we don't see that happen."
Hu Fei laughed and said, "Actually, I quite hope that this situation will occur."
I couldn't understand Hu Fei's thought process, so I asked, "Why?"
Hu Fei said, "It's very simple. If they intercept us, we can find out about their weapons and equipment. If they come with knives, we can determine the difference in strength between them and us. If no one in the entire city of Hangzhou has a gun, wouldn't we be able to do whatever we want?"
I frowned and said, "It's obviously unrealistic to not have any guns. There are countless police stations, precincts, and police stations in Hangzhou, and their armories must have plenty of weapons and ammunition."
Hu Fei laughed and said, "Can you stop worrying about things that are going to happen all the time?"
I said, "No, before we know the true situation in Hangzhou, we'd better be realistic about it so we can deal with it when the time comes."
We didn't encounter anyone along the way.
I don't know if those people are hiding in their own territory and not coming out, or if there's simply no one in the place I came from.
Walking on the street, which is neither too big nor too small, there are many cars on the road. I have to move around for a long time every time, and I inevitably get scratched and bumped every time. Fortunately, cars are not worth much now, otherwise, how much money would I have to spend to repair my car?
Hu Fei said, "We haven't seen anyone along the way. Could it be that everyone in Hangzhou is dead?"
I chuckled and was about to speak when suddenly someone ran past on the street in the distance. I laughed and said, "See? Someone just ran past."
Hu Fei said, "That guy seems to have hidden in a convenience store. Should we go and meet him?"
I said, "I just saw that guy and he looked pretty young, probably a student. Why don't you go over and take a look?"
"Me alone? What if he's not alone and is lying in ambush on me?"
I said, "That's why you have to go alone. Go by yourself and I'll support you from behind. If something happens, I can help you, right? If we both get hurt, wouldn't that be a loss?"
Hu Fei was speechless, picked up the gun, nodded and said, "Alright, alright, I'll go, I'll go, okay? But you have to keep your eyes open and keep an eye on the surroundings for me. If anything happens, come out and help me immediately!"
"Don't worry, I know!" I said with a smile.
