Capítulo 8: Chapter 6 : Separation Part 2
Tommy, who was standing aside, also swooped down to pick up the pistol on the ground after the soldier was attracted by the watch. Before the soldier fell to the ground, he accurately shot him through the head.
"phew..."
Seeing that the crisis was over, the two brothers couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, but at this moment, dense roars and footsteps suddenly sounded behind them.
They were stunned for a moment and turned to look behind them. A dense crowd of infected people appeared behind them like a wave.
"Damn it, run!"
As soon as Tommy saw this situation, he understood that these infected people must have been attracted by the sound of gunfire, and he grabbed Joel to escape.
"Sarah's still there!"
At such a critical moment, Joel remembered that Brian and Sarah hadn't followed yet, so he turned around and wanted to look for them.
"We can't go looking for them now. Sarah's leg is injured. You can't run fast with her in your arms. We can only lure these monsters away so that they can be safer."
Tommy grabbed the anxious Joel and spoke out his thoughts to prevent the other party from doing anything stupid.
"Can..."
Following Tommy's suggestion, Joel didn't say anything. He knew this was the best way at the moment, so he yelled towards the bushes on his side:
"Brian, We'll lure these infected people away. You take Sarah onto the highway, and we'll meet on the bridge!"
After saying that, Joel no longer hesitated, turned around, and ran with Tommy downhill to the left. The road there was rugged and difficult, which could greatly slow down the speed of the infected.
...
In the dense bushes not far away, Brian covered the girl's mouth with his hand to prevent her from making any sound.
Sarah also knew the danger now, so she simply closed her eyes and stopped looking at what was happening outside.
I felt the infected people constantly passing by; their hearts were beating wildly. If they made the slightest sound at this time, their end would definitely be extremely miserable.
A few minutes later, when the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared in the distance and silence returned to the surroundings, Brian sighed in relief and loosened the palm of his hand covering Sarah.
"Quick, get on my back; let's get out of here quickly."
Although the infected people have been lured away by Joel and Tommy, no one can guarantee whether other infected people will come here, so it is better to leave as soon as possible.
"What about my dad and Uncle Tommy?"
Although her crisis has been resolved, Sarah is extremely worried because her relatives have attracted so many infected people to protect her.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to them. Let's go to the bridge first."
Brian knelt and carried Sarah on his back, whispered comfort to the girl, and started walking with some difficulty. Although the other party only weighed about 40 kilograms, don't forget that he was only 13 years old.
After strenuously walking up the slope, he picked up the assault rifle from the dead soldier and carried it on his back. Although he couldn't use it yet, having it was better than nothing."
He also obtained a pistol and several magazines from the soldier's waist, along with a radio, which Brian put into his pocket without any ceremony.
After searching, the two of them looked in the direction of the bridge and walked slowly forward.
This time, Brian learned to be smart. Instead of walking on a flat road, he chose to walk in rugged and densely wooded areas.
Although this would consume his physical energy too quickly, he didn't dare to bet that he wouldn't meet other soldiers along the way.
Sweat kept running down his cheeks, and some sharp branches and leaves in the dense trees kept scratching his arms.
Every time he walked for a while, he had to stop and rest for more than ten minutes to regain his strength.
During this period, Brian checked Sarah's leg injury during a break. Because he had to avoid infected people and beware of sudden attacks by soldiers, he never had time to take a closer look.
But when he rolled up Sarah's trouser legs, he found that the injury was not as serious as he thought. The small area soaked in blood was only caused by abrasions on the skin.
The real reason that Sarah couldn't walk was that her calf was dislocated, which was why she was in pain and couldn't walk.
"Forget it; let's hurry to the bridge first and then we'll talk about it."
On the road again, time seemed to become extremely long without the watch. After an unknown amount of time, after climbing over a slope, they could see the isolation guardrail of the highway not far away.
"Fuck, it's finally going to happen."
Seeing that the Long March was about to come to an end, Brian's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, and he almost cried. It was so difficult!
"I don't know how Dad and the others are doing."
Seeing the bridge getting closer and closer to her, Sarah felt a little happy and a little uneasy in her heart.
Just as they were about to reach the highway, the radio that Brian took from the soldier suddenly made a rustling sound, followed by a voice coming from inside.
"At checkpoint 6, there are a large number of infected people moving towards the bridge.If you cannot defend, you can evacuate quickly. Over."
"..."
Listening to the content coming from the radio, Brian's face became extremely distorted for a moment. He put his head in his hands, looked up to the sky, and roared:
"This is a scam!"
