Because he had just participated in the battle yesterday, he was not on duty to assist in defense today, and he was going home to take a look today.
Xu Youran University chose Haihe University, and there is a very important reason that Haihe University is located in Nanjiang City.
For more than 20 years, Xu Youran, who has been sick to death, is most familiar with Nanjiang's large and small hospitals at all levels.
After being away for more than a year, he wanted to go home and take a look.
What if Dad has already returned home and is waiting for him at home?
There was still a little expectation in his heart.
He found a soldier outside to borrow a casual outfit, a long-sleeved shirt, jeans, sneakers, and standard student uniforms.
After leaving the barracks, I happened to meet two awakened people who were on duty on the city wall yesterday, one was a short young man, and the other was an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman.
When the short young man saw Xu Youran, his eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to greet Xu Youran: "My name is Cai Bing, what do you call my little brother?" ”
The middle-aged woman next to her also smiled and said, "I am Cheng Lin." ”
Xu Youran quickly shook hands with the two of them, "My name is Xu Youran, a sophomore." Hmm...... I should have been a junior this year, hehe. ”
Cai Bing shook hands with Xu Youran and said, "Are you off work today?" Is this going to the city? ”
"Yes, I haven't been home for more than a year, I am from Nanjiang, hurry up and go back to take a look."
"I haven't been home for more than a year? That's to go back and take a look, you can ask the soldiers on duty to arrange a military vehicle for you. Cheng Lin said.
"Okay, thank you. See you later. Xu Youran said goodbye to the two of them and explained the situation to the soldiers on duty.
After a while, a green Dongfeng Mengshi stopped in front of him, and Xu Youran sat on the Dongfeng Mengshi and drove in the direction of his house along the original Inner Ring East Line.
His home is actually not too far from the East Line of the Inner Ring Road, and he listened to the little soldier driving the car to introduce the situation to him, while paying attention to the current situation in Nanjing.
When a large number of mutant beasts emerged and began to harm humans, the Chinese government decisively carried out military control.
Nanjiang City will collapse the four ring lines around the main urban area, and according to the surrounding terrain, a city wall made of bricks and rubble will be artificially created.
This city wall effectively defended against the attack of a large number of mutant beasts, and the small mutant beasts in the city area could no longer pose a big threat after nearly a year of cleanup.
All humans who survived the virus outbreak were relocated within the city walls, and reconnaissance teams were constantly sent to search for survivors.
Along the way, Xu Youran saw that almost every floor was as high as a certain level of anti-aircraft machine guns on the rooftops, and he knew that this was to defend against flying mutant beasts.
Maybe because the road they took was close to the defensive wall, there were not many people.
Xu Youran asked, "How many surviving humans are there here in the main urban area now?" ”
"There are probably about a million left, and generally military control is implemented. But our main job is to defend against mutant beasts, so the implementation is basically the original government system in the local area. ”
Xu Youran couldn't help but sigh a little, once a first-tier city with a population of tens of millions.
One million people survive in just one year, with a mortality rate of 90%.
After turning Beijing East Road is Jinxiang Road, he exchanged contact information with the driver and asked the driver to go shopping casually, and he would call him when he wanted to go back.
The little soldier may have rarely entered the city, and drove away happily.
When passing by Beijing East Road, Xu Youran noticed that there were more cars and pedestrians on the street.
Slowly I got a little angry, but the stores were basically closed.
Now all materials are directly managed and distributed by the military department, as if we have returned to the era of big pot rice.
He strolled through Jinxiang Road, not far from his family's community.
Entering the gate of Xiangju Meiyuan Community, the concierge security guard turned out to be the same Uncle Liu.
I really didn't expect the old man to be in such good health and survive the virus outbreak.
He smiled and nodded to Uncle Liu, and Uncle Liu also nodded to him in confusion.
There don't seem to be many residents in the community, his house is Room 202, Unit 1 of Block A, and he came to the door. He thought for a while and knocked on the door.
There was no movement for a long time, he knew that the trace of fantasy was indeed his extravagant hope.
He dug out a key from under the mat next to him, opened the door, and a musty smell that hadn't been inhabited for a long time poured into his nose.
Looking at the empty and dusty living room.
I don't know if he was choked by the musty smell or why, his nose was sore, and his heart was inexplicably empty.
Ignoring the dust on the sofa, he sat down.
I think of those teachers and classmates who died of the virus, people who were killed by mutant beasts in the supermarket, Dongfang Bai who left not long ago, and my father who may never come home.
Sitting at home after a long absence, tears couldn't help but fall quietly.
It turns out that I am still alone......
In the tidal army of mutant beasts, he is a predator who lives and dies in seconds and turns the tide, fearless of life and death, and moves forward bravely!
At this moment, he is just a lonely big boy in his early twenties.
He should have enjoyed a good college life under the care of his parents. But now he is enduring a lot, and it should not be the pain and pressure he should bear at his age.
I cried for a long time, as if I had released all the grievances and loneliness I had had suffered over the past year.
He came to the bathroom, turned on the faucet and washed his face, but his eyes were still red.
Find a large box and put all your few clothes inside.
Although it is full of dust, you can go back to the barracks to wash it again.
He looked around, except for the bed, sofa, and dining table, all the basics that could be sold were sold by him at that time, and he found a broom and rag and started cleaning the room.
It took almost two hours to finally clean up the dust from the top and bottom of the house.
He found another piece of paper and wrote a few big characters on it with a pen: Dad, I am still alive, I went to join the army, my phone number xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
He put the large piece of paper in the most conspicuous position in the living room, looked at it for a while, and then raised his hand and added at the end: I have grown up! I miss you very much!
I glanced at the clean room he cleaned again, and I didn't know when I would be able to go home again.
He dragged the big box, walked out, and locked the door.
Put the key back under the foot pad, this place was the place where the father and son agreed to hide the key.
When I walked to the gate of the community, I saw a lot of people surrounding the gate of the community, and a few cars parked at the entrance of the community.
Xu Youran didn't want to deal with these idle things, but he heard Uncle Liu's voice in the crowd, "Just talk when you speak, why are you pushing me?" ”
Xu Youran squeezed into the crowd, and several neighbors in the crowd knew him and asked in surprise.
"Xiao Ran is back! I'm glad you're okay! ”
"Youran is back? Where have you been this year? ”
"Youran, where is your father? Why did you come back by yourself?" ”
Although I haven't seen each other for more than a year, the various experiences in the past year have made the neighbors who saw Xu Youran feel like they were in another world.
Xu Youran has been sick all year round, and his father travels frequently, so he is often cared for by his neighbors.
The neighbors saw that he was pitifully ill, the owner sent him food, and the west family sent him to the hospital.
Xu Youran greeted the neighbors with a smile as he came to the center of the quarrel.
Several men in suits were surrounded by a young woman about thirty years old, who was dressed fashionably and had a beautiful appearance.
This group of people was surrounding Uncle Liu and the administrators of the two properties in the middle, talking about something.
"What's going on?" Xu Youran asked the neighbor Aunt Wang next to him in a low voice.
"What else can be done? Originally, the virus broke out, and no one knew when the situation would improve. This company called Hengshun Real Estate suddenly came to find a property today, saying that it was going to demolish and acquire land, and it was almost the price of cabbage. The more Aunt Wang spoke, the more angry she became.
"Now that the virus is so powerful, there is still a threat of mutant beasts. Are they crazy? At this time, come to demolish and acquire land? What price do they give? Xu Youran was also a little confused.
"It turns out that less than a few tenths of the house price is not enough!" Aunt Wang was so angry that she spat "bah".
"Wouldn't it be over if you don't sell it to them? Why are you still arguing here? Xu Youran was even more confused.
"Those are representatives of that company, saying that the city government wants to build a security research institute and requisition our land!" Another neighbor, Aunt Zhang, also came over.
Xu Youran thought in his heart, "The city government requisition land? Will land acquisition be entrusted to a private enterprise? Is it still expanding in this situation? No, there's a problem here! ”
"They came here today to acquire land?" Xu Youran wanted to confirm again.
The two aunts said together: "Even today, I don't know what kind of wind I smoke!" ”
Xu Youran decided to test it again, squeezed over, and stood next to Uncle Liu.
"You are a private enterprise, and it is not your turn to acquire land if the city government wants to build anything, right?" Xu Youran asked loudly.
"Huh?! Xiao Ran, it's Xiao Ran who is back! Uncle Liu saw Xu Youran again and finally reacted.
Just now someone came in to greet him, and he felt very familiar, it turned out to be a minor illness bag Xu Youran came back.
"Xiao Ran, you are not in good health. Don't mix these things, adults will make it clear to them, don't worry about it. Uncle Liu quickly grabbed Xu Youran.
Xu Youran patted the back of Uncle Liu's hand, "It's okay, let's reason with them, we can't force it to be demolished." ”
This is the home where Xu Youran has lived for more than 20 years, and here are the most precious memories of their father and son.
What's more, he still fantasized that one day his father would come home.
Even if the city government really wants to acquire land, it has to ask him whether Xu Youran's big shield agrees or not.
The extremely gorgeous young woman, with her willow eyebrows upside down and her apricot eyes wide open, said sternly: "Who said you can't forcibly demolish it? Mayor Guo personally instructed it, do you dare to object? ”
Xu Youran looked at the young woman's menacing posture, and she understood a little in her heart.
Their community is close to the city government, and the location is very good, so it is reasonable to use it to build a security research institute.
However, the fourth-generation nuclear bomb was only transported last night, which can be used to kill mutant beasts, and this news should only be known to some people at the top of Nanjiang City.
Someone will come to acquire land and demolish it today, so you don't have to think that there is a big problem here.
