Chapter 4 - Car accident

The cold bullet penetrated the infected person's head, and blood mixed with brains gushed out of the blood hole, splattering all over Brian's face.

  The infected person whose brain had been destroyed seemed to have lost motivation, lying on the ground weakly and motionless. Blood continued to pour out of the wound, and a pool of blood formed in an instant, emitting a thick smell of blood.

  Seeing the death of the infected person, Brian's strength seemed to have drained away and the whole person collapsed on the ground, breathless.

  Sarah, who was behind him, was also completely stunned by the scene, she was dumbfounded, shaking all over.

  On the other hand, after Joel shot and killed Jimmy, he turned around and saw two children who were stunned and dazed, he didn't know what to say, but he knew he couldn't stay here and had to leave immediately.

  "Get up, let's get out of here fast."

  Joel grabbed Brian off the floor and Sarah, who was standing stupidly, and dragged them towards the door without saying a word.

  Just after leaving the house, Joel saw his brother Tommy's car parked outside, the other party saw them and asked with a smile on his face:

  "Where have you been? I didn't answer your phone calls, do you know what's going on outside?"

  "I know, don't talk nonsense and drive fast."

  Joel didn't say much, he opened the back door and pulled in the two kids who hadn't recovered. He was well aware of the situation at Brian's house and knew his parents were out of town, so he didn't ask him any more questions. After closing the door, he opened the front door and sat down.

  "Damn it, why are you covered in blood, you're hurt!"

  As soon as he got into the car, Joel heard Tommy's concern, but he really didn't want to waste time and said directly, "It's not my blood, let's go fast."

  Tommy said nothing more, started the engine, backed up and drove fast in the direction of the highway.

  In the back seat, Brian didn't pay attention to what Tommy and Joel were saying in the front row, he just looked at his hands and kept thinking about the scenes that had just happened in his mind.

  Did I kill?

  Although this feeling is very bad, after all he is an adult with a soul of about 20. After taking a deep breath, he gradually recovered from the discomfort, and after shooting and killing, he could feel as if he was inside a barrier.

  In his previous life, he had read a report about a murdered prisoner. After the murder, as long as the initial period of tension and panic has passed, then the whole person's mentality will undergo shuddering changes, and he feels that he is completely different from other people. High-level people who control the life and death of others do not see others as the same type, but as the prey, and when something goes wrong, the first thing they think of is killing others. another party.

  If a person is used to using murder to solve problems, they will also be controlled by murder. Thinking about this, Brian secretly warned himself to always be sensible.

  "Brian, Sarah, how are you?"

  After the car drove a short distance, Joel turned his head and looked at the two of them with concern. Although he didn't like Brian much at first, thinking he and his daughter were too close, but the other party stood up in times of crisis, stepping out to protect Sarah made his impression of the child change slightly.

  "I'm fine."

  Responding to Joel's concern, Brian looked at Sarah beside him, and seeing that she wasn't saying anything, asked:

  "My parents called me just now. They said the infection is completely out of control now. What's the situation outside now?"

  To Brian's question, Joel also wanted to know, so he looked at Tommy, who was driving the car, and hoped to get an answer.

  "I'm not really clear right now, everyone is saying that people in town are losing their minds,

They seem to be under the influence of some kind of parasite or something. "

  As he drove the car carefully, Tommy shared the information he had gathered from the news and passersby.

  "And now the cell phone and radio are useless now, and there is no way to accurately understand the information."

  Hearing Tommy's response, everyone in the car was silent for a moment, and now everyone understood that the situation was extremely serious.

  As the vehicle came to a fork, Tommy seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head to his brother Joel and said:

  "When I arrived, I read the latest news. They were saying that the army has set up roadblocks and no one can enter the county town.Where are we going now?"

  "....Ya that road can't go, then go to Route 71."

  "it's good."

  As a police car whizzed by, the car turned right, and on the way, everyone saw many families packing their luggage and wanting to leave with their wives, children and kids.

  He even saw a vehicle hit a large tree on the side of the road, the driver's seat door was open, there was no one inside and a long trail of blood stretched outward and disappeared into the distance.

  "Damn, what are these monsters?"

  Seeing this scene, Joel frowned slightly, which reminded him of the infected people he encountered in the house.

  "I don't know, the police have no idea at this point."

  Tommy, naturally, knew what Joel was talking about. He encountered several infected patients when he arrived and continued:

  "It's not just our cities that have this kind of thing now, those reporters said the contagion started in the south, but now it's spreading rapidly east and west..."

  After driving for about ten minutes, they finally reached Line 71, during which they passed Lewis Farm which was burned by fire and encountered a family of three fleeing on foot along the roadside.

  Originally, Tommy planned to stop and help the other party, but Joel, who was sitting in the co-pilot, refused to help the other party because there were too many people and he had children.

  At the intersection, looking at the long queue of traffic ahead, Tommy said helplessly:

  "Everyone seems to have the same attention span.

  Traffic seemed to have stalled here for quite some time, all the cars honked their horns nonstop, and Brian even saw a helicopter fly overhead.

  The owner of the blue car ahead of them was obviously impatient, he pushed the door open sharply and shouted at the traffic in front of him:

  "You bastard, what's going on up ahead, let me go!"

  But as soon as he finished speaking, two infected people wearing hospital gowns suddenly appeared in the darkness next to the entrance, one of them pounced and threw the man next to the car to the ground and bit him desperately.

  The other infected person went straight through the open door and bit the woman sitting in the passenger seat.

  "This..."

  The sudden arrival of the infected person surprised everyone in the car, and everyone was stunned for a moment. At this moment, the infected person who knocked the man down, after biting the prey's neck, noticed the four people in the car in front of him and roared. He got up and rushed over.

  "Tommy, back up and get out of here!"

  Joel's nudges brought Tommy back to his senses instantly, his right hand quickly put the car in reverse, stepped on the accelerator and drove into town beside him.

  Driving all the way, the car turned left and entered a main street, but the oncoming crowd was a group of frightened people fleeing.

  The crowd obstructed the vehicle's progress. There was even a car in the middle of the road not far away. There was only one intersection that was large enough for a vehicle to pass. Tommy had to slow down and move forward slowly. He wanted to wait until the crowd had passed.

  But the number of people was too large, and with Joel's constant urging, Tommy stepped on the accelerator, speeding through this narrow intersection with difficulty.

  "Let go--!"

  But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, as the car had just passed an intersection, a glaring light appeared on the left side of the vehicle and an out-of-control truck slammed into it.

  "Bang!"

  Before everyone could react, the truck slammed into the side of the car. The huge impact directly overturned the entire car. After flipping several times on the road, it overturned. Next to the roadside store.

  "Shit!"

  I don't know how long it took, gradually Brian woke up from the coma, he only felt a dull pain in his head, like the prick of a needle, but fortunately his body was not in serious trouble.

  Immediately after, he discovered that the vehicle overturned, Sarah and Joel were in a coma, and Tommy's position in the driver's seat was gone, and he didn't know if he had been ejected.

  Pulling the door hard, Brian discovered that the door was warped and could not be opened at all, but fortunately there was a sunroof on the roof, and he got out without even thinking about opening the sunroof.

  Outside the car, the streets were full of people fleeing in panic. The light from the fire illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime, and some infected people could even be seen not far away.

  "Sarah, Joel, wake up!"

  He squatted down and shouted the names of the two inside the car, facing the sunroof. Brian pushed Joel into the front seat and dragged her out the window.

  Joel in the front seat was pushed by Brian in this manner, and gradually came to his senses. He quickly turned around and looked back. Seeing Brian rescue Sarah, he breathed a sigh of relief, then lifted his left foot and kicked. a couple of times to block the wind. The glass, he kicked straight through.

  Sarah, who was dragged out of the car, also woke up from her coma, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Brian asking worriedly if she was hurt.

  But just as she was about to answer, she suddenly saw behind Brian, an infected person with a fierce face running from the dark corner!
