Doomsday magician

Chapter 220 A false alarm

The current camp can only be described in one word - chaos.

Although the additional patrol personnel arrived a few minutes later despite the wind and rain, a chaotic situation had already occurred. , Even if they repeatedly scolded, the thousands of survivors under the night and wind and rain were still in panic.The anxiety in their hearts is intertwined with the cold rain on their bodies, filling them with helplessness and dark fear.

"Shoot those troublemakers."

After learning about this, An Hai unceremoniously spit out these words.At this critical moment, there is really no room for any more troubles, and they only need to deal hard with those who are restless.

Accompanied by a few gunshots, the island, which had been buzzing endlessly, finally became quiet.

However, after adapting to the previous noise, this sudden depressive silence made people feel even more uncomfortable.Especially in the dark, short cries or shouts suddenly came from an unknown corner of the island, and then quickly calmed down. The uneasiness and confusion were the most unbearable.

"We still have a lot of waterproof tents, do you want to distribute them to people outside temporarily? In this weather, if you stay overnight, you will definitely suffer from frostbite." After looking outside for a while, Zhang Yu'er could not bear it.

Those who huddled together for warmth were cold and hungry, and shivered when a gust of wind blew.With sympathy and pity, she thought of the dozen or so tents in the convoy.

"No."

Xu Bai, who was struggling with dinner, fiddled with the fried rice without any appetite. However, although he also sympathized with the survivors outside, he still rejected Zhang Yuer's proposal without hesitation.

"Why?" Zhang Yu'er's big eyes were somewhat puzzled.

Xu Bai put down his chopsticks, pushed away the rice in front of him, and sighed, "Since ancient times, there has been a saying that we should not worry about the few but the unevenness. If we have enough tents, that would be fine. But there are only a dozen tents. How many people are enough? If you take it out, it will not help them, but harm them, understand?"

This is not his random speculation, but Xu Bai's understanding and perception of the current human nature with the growth of experience in the last days.

Zhang Yu'er is not stupid at all, she immediately figured out the consequences after being pushed by Xu Bai: If she really sent out those tents, the people who got them would be happy, but there would be more, hundreds of times more than them The other people can only watch helplessly.If outsiders can't live in tents, that's fine. Although the feeling of being drenched in the rain is uncomfortable, their hearts are balanced.But now, others can live in comfortable and warm tents, but they can't. The extreme mentality exacerbated by rainy nights and zombies can make them do anything impulsively.

To put it bluntly, just robbing the tent by force is already the best result. Maybe it's very possible that people will die.

"Someone has fallen, come quickly!"

At this moment, there was another noise outside the tent, and it quickly spread among the thousands of survivors who couldn't sleep at all.It turned out that a middle-aged man who was not in good health was drenched by the rain, coupled with a bad mood, and passed out all of a sudden. What's more, there was a wooden pile behind him, and his head hit it when he fell down.The bright red blood dispersed with the rain, forming a shocking red.

This news made the survivors who were already depressed to the extreme clamor again.Under the fragile nerves, this new round of uproar vaguely carries the meaning of catharsis and indulgence.

Surprised, security personnel from Anshun Island quickly arrived and carried away the unconscious and injured man.

Although the source of the incident is gone, the turmoil has not subsided.From time to time, someone yelled something loudly, but the voice was blown away by the wind and drowned out by the rushing rain, so that it sounded a bit weird, which made Xu Bai and the rest of the team feel even worse.

"Ugh."

Zhang Yu'er sighed, and sat beside Xu Bai.Even though she, like Xu Bai, hadn't had dinner yet, the heavy scene outside made even the most nervous people not in the mood to eat.Fortunately, there is still a man by her side to cuddle with.If she was the only one in this situation, Zhang Yu'er felt that she would definitely not be able to bear it.

Xu Bai patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, and then let her lean in his arms.That kind of warmth and breathing that can be felt by each other made the two of them feel a little bit more at ease.

"Captain Xu, have you seen the baby... Ah, I'm sorry, it seems that I came at the wrong time."

Suddenly, hurried footsteps came from outside.Before Zhang Yu'er came out of Xu Bai's arms a little shyly, the anxious Leopard pushed open the door and rushed in.It's just that when he saw the slightly warm scene in the room clearly, Leopard realized that he was reckless.He quickly took two steps back and apologized to Xu Bai.

"What happened?"

Xu Bai saw Leopard's worry and anxiety at a glance, so he got up and asked.

"What, Baby Cen is gone, and she was still at the convoy's station in the afternoon. It's raining so hard outside, where can she go?"

"how come?"

Hearing that her close friend had disappeared, Zhang Yu'er didn't care to blame him for being reckless, and immediately asked worriedly.

Xu Bai was also taken aback, and after thinking about it, he comforted him: "Don't panic, this is an island, and it's such a weather, she must not be able to run far. Besides, Cen Baobao's ability is also a speed type. Yes, it is impossible for ordinary people to hurt her. Are you sure you have searched for the convoy's station?"

Leopard nodded and said, "I just went around, but you don't have any. I thought she came to chat with Zhang Yu'er, but it doesn't seem to be there."

"Then, could it be that we went to Xinfa Villa? We have a room on the first floor there, maybe it's there." Xu Bai thought about it, and said the most likely place.After all, there are only so many buildings on the island, either they are their residences, or they can only be Xinfa Villa. It is impossible for a girl to run into a bungalow built by others on such a rainy day, right?
Leopard thought for a while and said, "It's possible."

Anyway, being idle is idle, Xu Bai picked up the umbrella in the house, and said to him: "Forget it, let's go and look for it together. If it's not there, I will let Anhai and the others go out and search the whole island."

"Alright."

Accompanied by Leopard, Xu Bai explained to Zhang Yuer, and then quickly left the station in the rain.However, after asking several guards at the entrance of the garrison, he learned that Baby Cen had indeed left from here not long ago, and that the direction was towards Xinfa Villa. This answer somewhat relieved the two of them.

Xu Bai tried his best to walk forward while holding the umbrella, and said, "If nothing unexpected happened, I should have gone there."

Leopard also thinks so, but still has some doubts: "In such a rainy day, where is she going to do?"

With such questions in mind, the two rushed to Xinfa Mountain Villa in the center of the island stepping on the muddy water with one foot deep and one foot shallow.Fortunately, both of them had changed their boots in advance, and they were very skilled, otherwise they would have been extremely embarrassed in such an environment.Even so, the people who were pushed away by them along the way also complained, and some even pressed a few muddy handprints on Xu Bai's clothes angrily.

"Really, it's still running around in such a sky, if the tent can't stand, let me."

"In such a hurry, do you want to reincarnate?"

There are worse words than this, but Xu Bai doesn't want to be as knowledgeable as a group of stimulated people in such an environment.He just walked in silence, and stepped into Xinfa Villa before a strong wind blew past.

It could be seen that the people in the Anshun Island camp were quite afraid of the unexpected heavy rain.In order to prevent accidents, they also stepped up their defenses.Just outside Xinfa Mountain Villa in the core area, there are no less than [-] security personnel.Seeing Xu Bai coming in the rain, they first instinctively wanted to stop him, then they recognized him, and politely moved out of the way.

"Oh, you said a beautiful lady? She did come in more than half an hour ago, and she should still be inside." Hearing Xu Bai's question, a security officer said it outright.

Xu Bai nodded, put away his umbrella, and walked up to the second floor with the completely relieved Leopard.

A warm and soft piano sound came faintly, winding and simple like a stream, which made people feel inexplicably more peaceful after listening to it.

The two were a little surprised, and looked at a room at the end of the second floor at the same time.In Xu Bai's impression, it seemed to be a rather high-end suite, which was also set aside by the people of Anshun Island for their team.It's just that Xu Bai didn't pay much attention to it before.

"Go in and see?"

Almost all the rooms on this floor belong to them, so the suite at the end should be Baby Cen.After winking at the leopard, Xu Bai walked ahead and knocked lightly on the door.

The melodious piano sound suddenly stopped.

"Who?" Came a pleasant and naturally charming voice, it was the immature Cen Baobao.

"Baby, it's me." Leopard said.

Cen Baobao, who was sitting in front of the piano, was taken aback for a moment, then opened the door to let the two of them in.

Leopard looked at the good Cen Baobao, finally relieved, and scolded: "How did you come here in such a heavy rainy day? Do you know how worried I am when I can't find you in the convoy? And now It's such a mess outside, what if something happens to you?"

Hearing Leopard's caring reprimand, Cen Baobao felt warm.A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said: "Brother Leopard, don't worry, I also have supernatural powers, and it's on my own territory, what can happen? The reason why I came here was mainly because I was in a bad mood, so I wanted to come here." Play the piano to relieve boredom.”

Leopard just nodded and said, "Even so, you should tell me. The main reason is that today is different than usual, and it's very chaotic outside. Xu Bai and I are very worried."

His words made Cen Baobao's eyes turn, and he paused on Xu Bai's face intentionally or unintentionally, and then said: "I know, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
