Chapter 211 Abnormal images in surveillance
Li Qing no longer had the strong and elegant appearance he had before. Instead, he was filled with wildness and a hint of hostility in his eyes that came from a long period of killing.
"In order to weaken Situ Mao's power, Wang Su and He Huiqin sent people to lure us into the zombie swarm. I had no choice but to take my brothers into the mall." Wang Qing said with sparks in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth as if he wanted to eat the flesh and blood of Wang Su and He Huiqin when he mentioned their names.
Hua Jianming sighed, "The end of the world is coming, we humans should unite. Awakening superpowers is not easy, why do we have to kill each other like this!"
"Where there are people, there is war. In the past, it was a competition for work and business, but now it is a fight for resources and food. Brother Hua, I remember there are many people with special abilities in your team. How come you are out hunting zombies with Chief Situ's men?"
Hua Jianming originally thought that as Li Qing was Situ Mao's capable subordinate, it was inconvenient for him to tell him many things. But when he said, "Did you offend the leader, so he sent you out with these people?"
Hua Jianming was surprised, "What do you mean?"
"Although these people have awakened their superpowers, they are too picky and rarely come out to hunt zombies. The adults are lazy and gluttonous in the base, and they commit crimes with their superpowers. Unfortunately, I mentioned this to the leader several times, but he didn't take it seriously. Maybe we have a disagreement."
"So, Situ Mao deliberately let me come out with these people? Did he intend to kill me?"
Hua Jianming told Li Qing about what had happened in the base recently. Li Qing just sneered and shook his head.
"That's exactly what he would do! On the surface, he looks so attentive and harmless, getting along well with everyone. But behind the scenes, he behaves like a mean person!"
Hua Jianming asked curiously, "Aren't you his subordinate?"
Li Qing was stunned. "Subordinates? Haha! Yes, subordinates. Now everyone thinks I am his subordinate. But in fact, before the end of the world, we graduated from the same university and started a business together for ten years. The Haicheng Security Base was founded by him and me.
Unfortunately, my ability upgraded slowly. With the same number of crystal cores, he upgraded to level 2 while I was still at level 1. He felt that the gap between us was getting bigger and bigger, so he went out hunting with his men, while I stayed at the base to do some guarding work. "
Hua Jianming was surprised and said, "I see! Alas, human hearts are hard to predict, let alone in such an apocalypse. But why do you stay here all the time and don't go back to the base? After all, the base is safe!"
"Go back to base? We can't even get out of this mall building right now."
"What? How can I survive if I stay here?" Hua Jianming just wanted to get back to the base as soon as possible. His daughter had been missing for seven days, and his wife and son were locked up in a water dungeon by Situ Mao. He would always feel uneasy if he didn't go back.
"The supermarket chain on this floor still has electricity. Although some of the fruits and vegetables are inedible, there are still a lot of biscuits, snacks, instant noodles, bread, and water. There is even a lot of frozen meat in the freezer. This is why we have survived until now. However, the ten team members I led had to sacrifice every time they went to the supermarket to get food. Now there are only three of us left.
The only place in the mall that still has electricity is the power distribution room. We are now in the monitoring room here. As long as the monitoring in the entire mall is not damaged, we can know everything here. That's why Lu Yiming saved you. It's a pity for the dog."
"If that's the case, we can definitely find a safe route from the surveillance footage during the day and sneak away."
Li Qing sighed and said, "It's useless. There are some very powerful zombies in the mall. They are not only extremely fast, but also can call the wind and rain. The zombies here seem to obey their call. Moreover, there are more than one such zombie. There are only four of us including you. We are no match for them at all."
The woman next to them suddenly pointed at the computer screen and said to the others, "Boss, look! She's here again!"
"She? Who?" Hua Jianming looked at the screen and saw a woman suddenly appear on it. The woman was pale, with her head hanging down, and her messy hair covered half of her face. She was wearing a white dress and was so thin that she looked like she was just a bag of bones.
But she held her bulging belly with one hand, lowered her head, and stroked her belly again and again, as if a loving mother was communicating with her unborn baby.
"This is a pregnant woman!" Hua Jianming suddenly shouted, but was stopped from speaking by Li Qing and the man and woman beside him.
"Shh! Be quiet!"
"Want to die?"
Hua Jianming didn't understand why, but he covered his mouth like the other three. Then he continued to watch the surveillance screen with the other three.
The pregnant woman was seen walking openly in the center of the zombie group, and the zombies next to her continued wandering aimlessly as if they didn't see her.
Hua Jianming had a thousand questions in his mind, but he didn't dare to speak. This woman was obviously pregnant.
The pregnant women with zombie babies in their stomachs that they had met in the hospital before, although they looked like normal people, they were unable to move and could only stand still.
But this was different. She was walking among the zombies like a normal pregnant woman taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, with one hand on her waist and the other stroking her belly.
Suddenly, a bulge suddenly appeared on her huge belly, just like the little hands and feet of the baby inside bulging out on the mother's belly when the pregnant woman is moving, except that this bulge was a little bigger, and the frequency and speed of the fetal movement was a little too fast.
In less than three minutes, it will slide and move rapidly on the pregnant woman's belly.
The pregnant woman did not feel any discomfort at all. She stopped and suddenly grabbed a zombie passing by. She easily moved the zombie's head with her bare hands, brought the zombie's head to her mouth and nibbled it twice, then dug out a crystal core, put it into her mouth, chewed and swallowed it.
The whole process took only one or two seconds, and as the crystal core was swallowed, the fetal movement in her abdomen stopped.
The four of them stared at the surveillance screen for an hour. Every time the abdomen of this pale-skinned woman moved, she would kill a zombie nearby and eat its crystal core and brain.
"Is this still a human being?"
Hua Jianming couldn't help asking as he watched the scene on the surveillance camera with disordered breathing. But before the three of them could react, the pregnant woman actually raised her head.
Although the look in his eyes was no different from that of a normal human, a closer look revealed that in the dim surveillance screen, he actually had a pair of yellow vertical pupils like those of a cat's eyes.
At this moment, the pair of strange vertical pupils were staring at them from the screen!
Cold sweat broke out on the four people's backs through the screen.
“Rustle, rustle, rustle!”
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed by, and a rustling sound of snowflakes appeared on the surveillance screen.
"Is the surveillance broken? Why can't I see anything?" Li Qing murmured softly, but the shadow in his heart would not go away.
Hua Jianming was also a little suffocated by the pressure of a haze in his heart! Who is this person? No, should I say what? A zombie? But her behavior is more like that of a human! But how can a human eat the brain of a zombie?
"Shh! Don't talk!" Li Qing suddenly made a gesture to keep quiet and spoke to the three people with his mouth.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
“Sizzle!”
Suddenly, there was a sound of something collapsing at the door. This had never happened since the three of them hid in the monitoring room.
The four people in the monitoring room listened to the sudden increase in the sound of footsteps outside, some of which were dragging and some of which were high-frequency. They did not dare to make any sound, and even their breathing was controlled and became much slower.
If they were discovered now, they would surely die.
