Chapitre 18: Chapter 16 : Escaping
The next morning
The seven o'clock biological clock in his head woke Brian up from his deep sleep. He slowly opened his eyes and was about to stretch, but found that he could no longer feel the presence of his left arm. He turned his head and saw that Sarah was still resting on his arm, hugging his body like an octopus.
Sighing helplessly, he pulled out his left arm with his right hand. Feeling the numbness and pain, his expression suddenly turned into a grin.
After a few minutes, the pleasure gradually subsided, and then Brian gradually pulled his body away from Sarah's embrace. It wasn't until he finally got rid of the other party's shackles that he grew a tone.
He stood up and looked down at Sarah, still sleeping soundly. He squatted down and took out a map of Texas from the mezzanine of his backpack on the ground. This was what he had especially found when he passed a bookstore yesterday.
After looking around and seeing that there was nothing serious, he gently opened a not-too-wide gap at the door of the factory building and slipped out of the gap sideways.
As soon as he left the factory, the dazzling sunlight shone on Brian's face. He squinted his eyes slightly. It took him a moment to gradually adapt. Then he stood on the back of an abandoned car and spread out the map in his hand.
He found the location of Austin on the map and kept moving his finger upwards, passing through and finally stopping at Dallas.
Looking at the journey, Brian scratched his head and said to himself, "I don't know what kind of trouble I will encounter along the way."
Boom!
Just as Brian was carefully planning the route, a loud rumble suddenly sounded from not far away, followed immediately by the sound of "ta-ta-ta-ta" rifle shooting and the unbelievable screams of humans. The sound made him startle. He suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
But there were too many obstructions around him, and it was impossible to see clearly what was happening there. However, an ominous premonition still surged out of Brian's heart. He quickly folded the map, put it away, and turned around. Run towards the factory.
He quickly pushed the factory door open to the left and right and shouted inside, "Sarah, get up; let's get out of here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sarah hurriedly ran out from behind the car. Seeing that Brian was not there, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked with some confusion, "What happened just now?"
The loud noise just now woke her up, and when she saw that Brian was not around, she suddenly felt a little uneasy and hurriedly ran out to check. When she saw that Brian was safe and sound, she felt relieved.
Looking at Sarah coming towards him, Brian briefly talked to her about what he had just said, then opened the driver's door of the car at the door and said solemnly, "No matter what happens there, it doesn't matter to us. Get your stuff and get in the car; we're getting out of here now."
Listening to Brian's decision, Sarah nodded in recognition. Indeed, no matter what happened over there now, it didn't matter to them who were about to leave here. She jogged a few steps to pick up the backpack from the factory. , turned around, opened the passenger side of the car, and got in.
Woohoo——!
Seeing Sarah sitting in the passenger seat, Brian didn't hesitate and drove out of the abandoned car factory in a zigzag manner. Then he stepped on the accelerator, kicking up dust all over the sky and heading towards the sky like an arrow. Driving fast on the far side of the road.
Brian was in the driver's seat, constantly looking at the rearview mirror to observe the situation behind him, fearing that something unexpected might happen. After the car had driven a long distance, he gradually relaxed and looked at the situation behind him. He followed the sign indicating a right turn on the highway ahead and turned the steering wheel of the car.
"Fuck me!"
But as soon as the car turned a corner, Brian suddenly saw a truck blocking the highway intersection and several armed soldiers beside it. This suddenly made him feel irritated and gave him the urge to curse.
He didn't know why soldiers from the army suddenly appeared in this place, but when he saw these soldiers raising their guns without hesitation after seeing them, he knew that these soldiers did not have any good intentions toward them. When he remembered the gunshots and screams that came from the small town just now and what happened to the soldiers when the plague broke out, he dared to conclude that these people were coming with bad intentions.
Although this judgment seems very arbitrary, Brian trusts his intuition, and he is not a person who will easily hand over the right to choose his own life and death to others.
"Why... why are they here?" Looking at the soldiers who suddenly appeared in front of her, Sarah frowned slightly. She had no idea about these so-called soldiers now, nor did she know when they arrived here. She's Very confused.
"I don't know, but it's nothing to us."
Listening to Brian's words, Sarah also understood that their current situation was a bit embarrassing. Since the intersection here was guarded, it must be the same in other places. Even if they hid in Town, they would most likely be attacked by them. She asked a little anxiously: "What should we do now?"
"lie down; let's rush over!"
Frequently tapping the accelerator, at this point, Brian knew that they had no way out. He roared, then slammed the car's accelerator to the bottom. Amidst Sarah's exclamations, he headed towards the highway intersection and Rushed over.
On the other side, several soldiers who were guarding the highway intersection looked at the sudden car coming at the end of the road ahead and quickly raised their rifles. They all looked at each other and didn't know what to do. They had just arrived here, and they didn't know what to do. They never thought a car would suddenly appear at this time.
At this time, one of the soldiers, who was the leader, came out. He picked up the loudspeaker placed on the supply box next to him and shouted to the vehicle in front:
"The vehicle ahead is from the National Disaster Rescue Team. Please get out of the vehicle and undergo an inspection. We will escort you to"
But before he finished speaking, he saw the car in front of him suddenly speed up and rush towards him. This shocked him, and he understood that the other party seemed to know something. He no longer cared about the disguise and hurriedly raised his rifle and yelled, "Shoot!"
Da da da...
Bullets hit the car's shell like raindrops, shooting out flying sparks and making a "cracking" sound. The windshield of the car was also penetrated by the dense bullets and instantly turned into a spider web shape.
Brian desperately lowered his body, feeling the bullets whizzing in front of him. He felt both scared and a little excited. His heart kept beating violently, his breathing became rapid, and the adrenaline in his body began to surge suddenly.
Seeing that the soldiers on the opposite side were getting closer and closer, Brian suddenly turned the steering wheel and hit the supply boxes stacked next to the soldiers.
Bang!
The strong collision force overturned all the stacked supply boxes and flew in the direction of the soldiers. By the way, it also blocked some flying bullets.
The soldier who was shooting saw the car smashing into the supply box and involuntarily took two steps back. The rifle in his hand also stopped firing.
After knocking the supply box away, Brian saw they were shooting, so he quickly accelerated around the military truck, broke through the roadblock and the lifting railing at the highway intersection, and entered the highway.
"You two stay here; the rest get in the car and let's chase them!"
The leading soldier looked at the departing car and suddenly felt extremely annoyed. If their blockade had not been completed, how could the car have been able to leave so easily?
He quickly ordered two soldiers to stay here to guard, and the rest of the people got into the truck. He quickly opened the door, got in, started the truck, and chased them on the highway. At this time, he picked up the radio and called. The superior reported what had just happened.
"Report to the captain: a car broke through the blockade from the north of the town and entered the highway. I am driving along the road to chase him. I promise to intercept him. Over!"
But after the news was sent out, what came from the radio was not the voice of their captain but the stern voice of a strange man:
"Who asked you to act without authorization? Return to the northern blockade point immediately. I will send someone else to deal with that car. Remember, if someone escapes from your blockade point, don't blame me!"
"Yes, sir, I will return immediately!"
Listening to the voice on the other end of the radio, the soldier's expression suddenly changed. He instantly felt an invisible sense of oppression, and cold sweat slid down his forehead. He quickly stopped the truck, turned around, and returned to the highway intersection.
In a military camp in the west of the town, the middle-aged man wearing a standard combat uniform threw the radio back to a captain standing next to him and said in a cold voice, "Go north quickly; don't make any more mistakes."
"Yes!" After hearing this, the captain saluted with a military salute, turned around, and quickly walked out of the tent.
Watching the other party's leaving figure, the middle-aged man closed his eyes, and at some point, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, gradually revealing a happy expression.
Originally, he was still worried about how to secretly release some survivors, but he didn't expect someone to send pillows when he fell asleep. It seemed that even God thought they were doing the right thing and wanted to help the United States end this disaster.
