State of Decay - Chapter 69

[Chapter 69 The Long Night]

Lin Wu sat on the ground and said: “One of my college roommates is in good condition in all aspects, the only shortcoming is dull, and he stutters when he meets a girl who is attracted to him. He told me that girls know he is a good man. But girls don’t want good men, girls prefer scumbags. Being deceived sweetly, crying to death for love, this is a perfect relationship.” Shana understood a little bit: “That’s why you don’t pay attention to girls. I mean

feelings and love.”

Lin Wu recalled the past, and said: “It’s beautiful, but also very tiring. My first relationship was in the last year of middle school. The girl next door was very clingy. The second relationship was in college. Rational, mature-minded girl. Extreme sweetness is usually accompanied by special bitterness.”

Lin Wu said: “The first one is me to take care of her. I wake up the phone, help her carry her schoolbag, buy her breakfast, wait for her after school, and accompany her. She did her homework. She was very immersed in the beginning, but then she was exhausted physically and mentally. She used to ask me to give her all my time, and I hardly had any private time.”

Shanna asked: “What about the second paragraph?”

Lin Wu said: “On the contrary, she She helped me arrange everything, what subjects to study, what certificates to take. For my health, she would also give me a customized diet. Just like the first relationship, I felt very happy when I first experienced being loved. After a long time, my bones The rebellious bitch can’t hold back.”

Shanna nodded: “What you want is that she can help you when you need to do something. It’s not that she wants you to do something, and you cooperate with her. Is that all? This I don’t have enough emotional experience and I’m not qualified to say: I don’t need girls to have a good impression of me.”

Lin Wu shook his head: “Love is too extravagant and too heavy. When you become the boyfriend of the other party, you take on a lot of responsibilities. Isn’t it good to finish this journey with ease? Why do you have to shoulder countless responsibilities? Boyfriend, husband, father, but not yourself.” “I’m surprised, you just

graduated college students, how could you come up with such a set of theories?” Shanna said: “This should be the idea of a middle-aged person who is overwhelmed.”

Lin Wu replied: “A good friend of mine is 5%, and I often stay at his house. His father is 95%, a small rich man who likes to play games, so I became friends with him. When I When encountering relationship problems, he would always encourage and support me. I didn’t expect him to lose first.”

Lin Wu said: “Two years ago he made up his mind to divorce. On the eve of my immigration, he invited me to dinner, and he told me, He has been very happy in the past two years. I asked him, should I not fall in love and get married? He solemnly told me that if you have a career and money, I advise you not to get married. If you are poor, you must I want to get married and have children. When I asked why, he smiled and didn’t answer. He just told me that this was his parting message to me, and he used the experience he gained in his twenty years of life. He didn’t want me to be like him, needing money. It took more than 20 years to wake up.”

I would rather fall in love with a woman who has a crush on your money than a woman who has a crush on your man. The former only wants your money, and she always wants your money. What the latter wants is not only money, but what she wants is everything from you.

Lin Wu: “Be cautious in falling in love, reject family, enjoy life, live happily, be positive, have the courage to challenge, pursue the truth, and realize yourself.

” It can make people happy.”

“Yes, there is nothing that makes people happier than love. But there is no eternal love, and it can even be said that the shelf life of love is too short. Why put yourself in a place where you will never recover for a moment of happiness. Lin Wu said: “We still have ideals, poems and distant places. Alone, we can take risks, challenge, laugh, travel far, and sing.” Shana expressed her understanding, saying: “For example, we are

now Love. If you have to pay, you will remember the happiness and forget about me. If I don’t want money, your sense of responsibility and morality will start to work. You will sacrifice your time, material desires and energy to meet my needs. Yes , You are quite right. Free things are the most expensive. From a girl’s point of view, the same is true. If a girl is rich, she will be happier if she is not married. If a girl is poor, she should get married and change her life. Lin

Wu raised his palms, and the two clapped their hands and smiled at each other.

Shana asked: “Have you contacted the base?

“

“Hush.” Shana picked up the blanket that came with the hospital bed, and covered Lin Wu in it, lest the stone howl would attract zombies. Lin Wu took the walkie-talkie and muttered under the blanket for a while before getting out, Shana said: “Are they worried?”

Lin Wu: “I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?”

Lin Wu: “I just Thinking about it, I made an appointment with Shitou before I left: I will use the walkie-talkie to be my grandson.”

Shana looked at Lin Wu for three seconds, took the walkie-talkie and slipped into the blanket to call the base, then lifted the blanket and said: “The distance is too far. “

Lin Wu didn’t care and said: “They can’t save us even if we contact them. You lie down, I’ll go outside and watch.”

Lin Wu was about to open the inner door, Shana said: “Lin Wu.”

“Huh?”

” Thank you.”

“Cut.” Lin Wu closed the door and left.

From a crack in the curtain, several zombies could be seen standing still or wandering back and forth in the corridor of the safe area of Base 01. Lin Wu held the silent man in his hand and focused on the living room where he was. The original owner of this apartment was a newlywed couple, and their loving wedding photo was hung in the most prominent place on the wall.

Lin Wu sat on the ground and opened the first drawer of the TV cabinet against the wall. There were masks and disinfectant in it. Obviously the owner wants to rely on them to isolate the virus and protect himself. The second drawer is for daily necessities, disposable gloves, etc. The third drawer contained two packs of unopened coffee beans. Thinking of the knife, Lin Wu put away the coffee beans. The fourth drawer is for sundries, electric shavers, discarded phone chargers, etc. The eight drawers were checked, but nothing of value was found.

Next to the TV cabinet is a small bookcase embedded in the wall. The three long compartments are filled with books, all of which are classics. There are no science and technology books or skill books. Lin Wu casually smoked a book and lay down on the sofa. It’s only 11 o’clock in the evening at this time, and tonight is destined to be a difficult night.

After Sand Eagle fired the last bullet, the current Lin Wu couldn’t deal with a fierce lineup mixed with several zombies. He could only rely on speed and wind thorns to break through the encirclement and escape. At that time, without mentioning Gu Shana, his chances of surviving are not high. Thinking of this, Lin Wu recalled the layout of the apartment building in his mind, then got out of bed to the door, and touched the doorknob.

Gently push open a crack and wait, push the door with the right hand at the right time, execute with a sharp knife in the left hand, clamp the neck of the zombie with the left arm, drag it into the room, and close the door. Observing the location of the zombies through the curtains, and coordinating with the base map, Lin Wu killed a few more zombies and emptied the zombies in the safe area of the corridor.

Then Lin Wu touched room 203 next door. This room is part of the base. Lin Wu cleaned up the zombies in the room and went to the bathroom. Just as he thought, the window of this bathroom was not blocked, and another unit could be seen from the location of the bathroom. . Lin Wu tied the rope tightly, and this place became a backup place of escape. When necessary, you can forcefully rush to the bathroom and drop the rope to escape.

But to guard the escape area, you must guard the corridor. Lin Wu’s Silencer has a noise radius of six meters without a muffler installed, so it must not be used. After the muffler is installed, the noise influence radius is only 1.25 meters, and shooting on the promenade will not attract zombies outside the safe zone. However, the muffler can only be used 4 more times, and there are only forty rounds of bullets left.
