MTL - 2013-Chapter 1 Night road
"Liu Ye, what about your classmate?"
Liu Yan, who was concentrating on revising the drawings, turned a deaf ear until the girls next door laughed and asked a third time, and Liu Ye looked up at them.
A girl said, "Aren't you going to find a job here?"
"Mengmeng ..." Liu Yan took the eraser and wiped it gently in the perspective view: "His parents let him go home and left. You walked last month. Your reflection arc is really long."
"It's a pity." Another girl laughed. "So handsome soldier, no wonder I haven't seen anyone waiting for you for dinner."
Liu Ye glanced at them, and said, "Who likes him? Please have a lot of fresh oranges, and I can give you his phone number." He whispered softly and scattered the rubber crumbs as if A stubborn memory that drove him out of his mind.
The bell rang, and students rushed out of the classroom after class.
A ray of summer sun cast in from the unglazed glass windows, and the large classroom was empty. Liu Ye was sitting alone in the last row of the room, packing the product renderings in his hand.
This is a month and twelve days after he broke up, and it is the anniversary of falling in love with Meng.
Seven years ago, Liu Ye and Zhu Mameng, who had known him since childhood, were promoted to senior high school in Z City Middle School and expressed their love. After the college entrance examination, Meng Yue went to the army, and Liu Ye was admitted to a university. As a student of the League of Nations League oath, Liu Ye still remembers that after going their separate ways, they still kept in touch with each other and look forward to being together on the day of graduation and retirement.
Because of his outstanding grades, Liu Ye University was sent to Germany as an exchange student. He was far away in a foreign country, but he still remembered his lover. After returning to China, he will be sent to graduate students. In the second year of research, Meng Xun finally retired and came to S city where Liu Xun was studying. When he met again, he had no surging feelings and no intense nights. Meng Xun hugged Liu Xun and slept quietly for one night.
Liu Ye didn't move, but he had insomnia all night. Looking at the ceiling, he felt that something was different.
Meng Yun lived in S city and planned to find a job to live with Liu Ye. However, he ran to the west, his education level was too low, but he couldn't find a satisfactory job. Finally, he left.
Liu Xun did not interfere with Meng Xun's choice. When he closed the door, Meng Xun was outside the door, and Liu Xun was in the door, they knew to each other that they were no longer the high school lovers who were seven years ago. Time is the sharpest knife that has been dragging water for many years. When the past was finally met again, it was ruthlessly cut.
In the blink of an eye, time leaks through the cracks of the fingers, like a fine sand powder, and there is no trace. People are no longer the old people. Love is not the original love. There is nothing wrong, everything originates from myself.
Seven years later, today, after breaking up for a month and twelve days, Liu Ye was sitting alone in the classroom, suddenly there was an unspeakable taste.
"Liu Ye!" A classmate probed from the front door: "Tutor is waiting for you, aren't you going?"
Liu Yan woke up like a dream, quickly packed up the drawings and headed for the office.
"I read the design," said the head of the department. "There are many minor problems and no major problems."
Liu Ye put down the drawing, took the coffee from the head of the department, looked at the bookshelf while drinking, and asked, "Can I borrow some books to go back and see?"
"Of course you can." Liu Ye's mentor is a 50-year-old, very old man, sitting at his desk at this time, drinking a coffee: "Your design is very purpose-oriented, with a strong Icelandic style , But ergonomics is your weakness, it's simply terrible. "
Liu Ye smiled with a ridicule: "During the Bauhaus class, I have been doing very bad man-machine, teacher, what is this?"
Liu Ye pulled out a book on the shelf: The Zombie Survival Manual. Can't help laughing.
The head of the department liked the student Liu Ye very much and explained with a smile: "Did you know that the US Department of Defense released an early warning guide on the Internet in May? The official claim is to remind everyone to cope with the infinite possibilities in the future. "
Liu Ye flipped through the book, laughing and crying, "Is it true? I'll check it out."
"I have written your product modification opinions on the USB flash drive." The director of the department said ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ and don't forget your homework. "
Liu Ye said helplessly: "Okay."
Liu Yan pushed the USB flash drive into his pocket, carried his laptop out, pulled out his cell phone to make a call at home, and no one answered.
Today is Friday. Liu Ye is going home, going back to the dormitory to pack things, and his dormitory friends are watching the webcast.
"Cui Xiaokun, are you going home this week?" Liu Yan asked.
"No, what?" Said the roommate. "Are you going back?"
Liu Yan: "Pick up girl?"
Cui Xiaokun: "No-say something quickly, what do you want to invite brother to do?"
Liu Yan smiled: "Can I borrow the car for a while? Come back tomorrow night and fill you up."
"Get off!" Cui Xiaokun said angrily.
After a while, the car keys flickered. Cui Xiaokun, a graduate student in the Department of Automation next door, bought a second-hand car. Liu Ye took the key and said, "Thank you, I don't want to take a bus at the station."
Cui Xiaokun took off his headphones: "Hey, Liu Ye, are you sure you want to go home?"
Liu Ye buried his phone and said, "How?"
Cui Xiaokun opened a video news and motioned, "Look."
"Another wave of rabies broke out in Z city this summer, and the relevant departments urged the public not to go out at home and wait for community hospitals to notify them of new vaccines ..."
Liu Yanmei, asked, "When will it happen?"
Cui Xiaokun raised his chin, took a cup and drank some water: "Is the news repeatedly broadcast this morning, isn't your mother a doctor?"
Liu Yi's family is a single-parent family. He grew up with his mother from an early age and felt abnormally keenly.
"Don't go out?" Liu Yan's eyebrows twisted.
"The authorities sprayed disinfectant water in most communities and evacuated the people in the city center, banned people from entering and leaving public places such as hospitals, and temporarily suspended subways ..."
Liu Ye called her mother's mobile phone and was always busy. At this time, she should be working overtime. No wonder the phone at home was not answered.
"I'll go first," Liu Yan said.
"Good luck, don't be bitten by a dog." Cui Xiaokun said lazily.
Liu Yan pulled the door, threw his computer and clothes into the back seat, threw the book borrowed from the instructor into the co-driver's seat, reversed his car, and set off.
AM12: 00S city highway intersection.
Liu Ye drew his wallet, paid for it, connected Bluetooth to the car's loudspeaker, and pressed the auto redial button, and the jeep ran on the highway.
The highway from S city to Z city is empty and endless. The sun is hot in midsummer, and the sky at the end of the road is dazzling and clear blue.
On the road from Z city to S city, there are long queues, and vehicles in the shape of □□ keep pressing the Lama.
PM3: The last section of the 30 highway.
The phone was finally connected, Liu said, "Mom!"
"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ..." the woman on the phone was anxious.
Liu Yan immediately drove the car to the side of the road. The phone was noisy and mixed with the whining winds. The woman said, "砚 砚 ——"
Liu Yan parked his car and shouted, "Mom! Are you okay!"
Woman said: "Don't go home, listen to mom, don't go home first, ah, mom is okay, mom loves you, hey ..."
Liu Yan: "What happened at home ?! Are you at the hospital or at home? Why don't you answer the phone at home?"
"Well, stay at school, mom is safe and will call you ..."
"Mom loves you, oh ..."
The phone rustled and hung up.
Liu Yan sat idly in the driver's seat and shut down when he called again.
Liu Ye was silent for a while, and then dialed Meng Ye's number. His mobile phone number had been deleted from his own phone book, but that number had not been changed in five years. Perhaps its traces could never be erased from his heart.
Meng Yun's phone was also busy. Liu Ye hit the reverse and turned around at a high speed. He waited indefinitely to wait in the traffic flow back to S city.
PM3: U-turn on Highway 40.
Liu Ye backed up again, drove on the expressway, and continued to drive forward in the direction of city Z.
The radio sounded in the car.
"The rabies phenomenon in Z City has been initially controlled. Municipal hospitals are organizing rescue treatment. The government urges all citizens who are not in the country to stay home for the time being to avoid traffic jams ... The weather forecast for you below ..."
PM7: At the end of the freeway 30, get off the curve in Z city.
A crimson round of burning clouds on the horizon was bright as if stained with blood. Everything was as usual. The toll station on the expressway collected the bills and opened the turns to let the vehicles enter.
While driving, pay attention to the sides of the road. The sun is going down, the street lights are on, and the vehicles are scarce. You should all hear the announcement in the radio and go home.
The Internet is crowded, it is almost impossible to log in, and the mobile phone signal is intermittent and unsustainable.
PM9: 50
The more you head towards the city center, the fewer pedestrians there are. Liu Ye's home is not far from the city center. The entertainment venues and supermarkets along the road are closed, and the figures are moving in pairs.
There were three police cars parked at the street, blocking the roadblock, Liu Ye was shocked, and immediately stepped on the brakes.
The lights on the top of the police car flickered, but no sound was heard. Liu Ye got out of the car and looked away for a while.
Where did the police go?
Liu Ye entered the car decisively, pulled up his seat belt, stepped on the accelerator, hit the barricade, and passed along the long street.
Most of the buildings on both sides were blind, and a few of the balconies were still on. Liu Ye closed the door and ran to the apartment building where he lived. The front desk security was no longer there.
Liu Ye fell into a confused panic, looked up, and turned around several times in the same place: "Anyone ?!"
No one answered, Liu Yan ran into the lobby, pressed the elevator, the lights were pale, and he stopped on the ninth floor with a bang.
Liu Ye rushed out of the aisle, took the key to open the door, and the things in the house were messy. It should be that the mother was hurriedly called to work overtime.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Ye took out a box of ice milk from the refrigerator and poured it. He went out and pressed the neighbor's doorbell one by one. No one opened the door in a circle. Liu Ye stepped back and peeped through the lower door. Lighted up.
Liu Yan stood still for a while, swallowed his saliva, went home to pack a few clothes, a blanket, and pulled out the first-aid box under the cabinet. When he went out, the lights on all floors of the entire building flashed and then went out.
The elevator stopped, and the entire downtown area was in the dark. Only the street lights of the independent line were still on.
Liu Yan opened the curtains and glanced outwards. There was no electricity in the surrounding area. Only another community in the distance was still brightly lit. He took the Swiss Army Knife and emergency lights, carried the emergency lights in one hand, pushed the fire alarm channel down quickly.
"Flop, flutter" footsteps came in the corridor.
Liu Min was relieved and said, "Anyone ?!"
He hurried down the corner and said, "What the **** is going on ?!"
The corridor was dark, Liu Ye took the emergency light and shot down the stairs. At that moment, the whole body's blood coagulated, and the fear climbed from the back to the scalp, causing numbness.
Under the corner of the fifth floor, there was a sallow-yellow face, a belly-broken security guard, his turbid eyes rolled up, his eyes facing the bright light.
This is dreaming, it must be dreaming.
Liu Xie stepped back subconsciously.
The security guard dragged his gut and made a wailing noise.
"You ... Mr. Huang?" Liu Yan's voice was shaking.
The security guard stepped up and stepped up. Liu Ye unscrewedly opened the door handle on the side of the stairwell and slowly opened it. When the security guard was halfway up, Liu Ye rushed into the aisle, slammed the door of the staircase and slammed his back. He gasped against the door.
The thumping sound of the door screamed Liu Ye, frightened, holding the doorknob.
"Anyone—!" Liu Yue shouted hysterically.
The doorknob was pushed down slightly, Liu Ye retracted his hands like an electric shock, looked at the door in horror, and slowly stepped back until his back leaned against the fire cabinet.
With a crackling noise, Liu Ye smashed into the fire cabinet and snatched out the axe inside.
Zombie? !! Is it a zombie? !! Liu Ye's only thought: This world is crazy, if the world is okay, then I am crazy.
The door **** turned to the bottom, and Liu Ye yelled again, ran away, found another fire passage, and stumbled in.
The emergency lights in the sweltering aisle swayed, Liu Ye was sweating, his shirt was soaked, and he hit the first floor door and ran out of the street. The sight in front of him was like a pot of ice water pouring him from head to toe.
The lights are still on.
The eye of a man in police uniform protruded, hung on his face, and leaned slowly against the window of his car, as if trying to drive a door.
In the distance, another five zombies were walking slowly in the garden in the city center.
Liu Yan couldn't help trembling, slowly lowered his things, and pointed the emergency light outside the street. The zombie policeman found the light source, turned around, and slowly walked towards him.
"Ah-" Liu Yan raised the fire axe with trembling, rushed forward, split his head through a seam, and the thick blood spilled out, then he lifted his foot to open it.
The zombie twitched on the ground, struggling to get up, Liu Yi could not help but step back, stumbled on the steps, and scattered scattered zombies in civilian clothes, walking towards the door of the building.
Liu Ye quickly packed things and rushed into the car. A zombies squeezed over when the door was closed. His arm was stuck near the door. Liu Ye slammed the door hard and bumped the heavy body to open it a little. Then he closed the door again. Reversing quickly, the bones muffled, and then several zombies were knocked over and ran over them.
Liu Min bumped into the car several times, and finally wiped the police car that was acting as a barricade out of the way. He was dizzy and didn't know where to go. He drove off when he saw the road. Finally he stopped outside a supermarket where he was lying on his back and panted.
He glanced at the flash of the mobile phone screen, a strange incoming call and answered.
"Finally answered the phone!" Meng's voice sounded anxiously: "Where are you ?!"
Liu Yan shouted, "I rely! What the **** is going on!"
Meng Yun: "There is a virus in this city! Don't come back and stay at your school, you know ?! I'll take you right away!"
Liu Yan: "I'm near my home."
The phone and the other end were wheezing quickly.
Meng Yun: "Which street!"
Liu Yan: "I have a car. You say a place. I'll go to you."
Meng Yun: "Don't make a fool! You will become a zombie!"
Liu Yan: "I don't know where this is! You are ..."
Liu Yan suddenly saw the end of the road, one person rushed out of the corner, chased a few zombies behind him, immediately stepped on the accelerator, the front wheel of the jeep idly idled, and then rushed out with a bang, the headlights were bright.
Liu Yan slammed his horns, Meng Yan raised his hands to cover his eyes, rushed towards the front of the car, leaped swiftly, the military boots slammed on the front of the car, stepped on the roof a few steps, turned over and fell behind the car, Liu Ye went Unstoppable, four zombies were hit and flew forward.
Immediately after that, Liu Min reversed his car quickly, opened the door, and Meng Min got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and sat in the front passenger's seat, breathing down.
Liu Ye turned on the ceiling light: "Why are you here?"
Meng Yun panted, "No one answered your mobile phone or home phone, called your school, and they said you were home."
Liu Ye nodded tiredly.
Meng Yun: "Although it was said at that time, we will never see each other again after breaking up, but I think we are still friends. I can't think of who to go to, or I'm afraid you will be in trouble."
Liu Ye's eyes were a little wet, he turned the steering wheel, and went into another way.
