Chapter 338: Gathering Place? Who are you kidding?
The sound of footsteps echoed in the huge space, slowly approaching.
Maybe right below.
The quantity is two.
Bifang was startled. When he was trying to determine the enemy's position and number of people, suddenly a beam of flashlight swept over. He leaned back suddenly and just missed the beam of light.
Only then did the audience realize what had happened, waking up from the thrill of Bifang's near fall.
[Oh my god, there's someone here! ]
[Who is it? Come forward! ]
[Why are there still people here? Were they attracted by the explosion during the day? ]
"Take a good picture, why are you wandering around?"
Below, a man in a dark green thin cotton jacket pressed down the right hand of the man in black beside him, pushing the center of gravity of the light column forward.
The man in black didn't feel angry, but frowned: "I seemed to hear a sound just now."
"A sound?" The green-jacketed man's expression was moved, but he did not show it. Instead, he said loudly, "You think too much. Is it a mouse?"
"mouse?"
The man in black was about to refute, but suddenly he saw the man in green jacket making a unique communication gesture with his right hand. He immediately understood what was going on. Instead of refutation, he nodded in agreement and secretly pointed upstairs.
"Yes, it's a mouse."
The man in the green jacket narrowed his eyes and said : "Let's go quickly. We've been hungry all day. Let's see if there's anything to eat here. There are still many people in the gathering place waiting for us to bring food back. I don't know if we can get out again. Yesterday, Xia Li asked me if I hid the food secretly. Damn it, I emptied my pockets but she still didn't believe me."
"Hahaha, there's nothing I can do. After all, she's the child's mother . It's normal for her to ask for more food. If I can find some today, I'll give her more."
"But if we give her more, what will happen to others? She is not the only one with a child."
After saying that, the two of them walked together towards the depths of the factory, as if they really regarded the sound just now as the presence of a mouse.
After the two men walked away, the man in black suddenly turned off the flashlight, and the man in the green jacket also asked in a low voice.
"What did you hear?"
"Knocking on the door."
"Knocking on the door? Is there someone there?"
"It should be."
"Could it be some other organization? The door..." The man in the green jacket suddenly remembered the huge explosion marks at the door. It was very horrifying. No ordinary bomb could produce such marks.
"It doesn't look like it. A bomb wouldn't have that kind of effect. It could be that a cylinder in the factory exploded. No matter what, we have to go up and take a look. The more 'goods' we can find, the better."
"Do you want to call someone?"
"Call!"
…
Gathering place?
child?
food?
Several key pieces of information appeared in Bifang's mind.
Judging from the conversation between the two people alone, it seems that there is a gathering place for survivors, and the two people came out to collect food?
[Damn, did I find the organization? ]
【Refugees? 】
[Do you want to help them, Lao Fang? (dog head)]
[I think Fang Shen can contact the authorities to get everyone out. It feels so pitiful. Isn't it just waiting to die if they stay here? It's so difficult for Old Fang to find food, let alone ordinary people.]
[Why do I feel like what the other person said is a bit deliberate? Would normal conversation reveal so much? ]
Bifang slowly leaned against the wall, smelling the burnt smell, but his expression did not relax at all. Seeing the barrage, he asked back, while keeping his voice as low as possible.
The factory is so large that even the slightest sound can echo for a long time.
"Do you think what they say is true?"
Forehead……
The audience who were posting comments were frozen, stunned by Bifang's words, but some of them seemed to be thinking about it, as if their previous views were confirmed.
What does this mean?
Could it be... fake?
No way?
Cao Lifeng, who was about to reward Bifang for helping them, suddenly stopped, finding it difficult to accept Bifang's subtext.
"I'm not sure."
Bifang shook his head, but did not completely deny the audience's meaning. In fact, he was close to the ground just now, and neither heard the subsequent conversation between the two nor saw the secret gestures, otherwise he would have been able to make his guess.
The other party seemed to have intentionally revealed so much information, and the same was true in their words, which could even make people subconsciously feel that this settlement was a safe zone.
There were women and children, and they were even given more food because they were so pitiful. Just by hearing about it, an image of the weak supporting each other and living tenaciously in a war-torn city seems to emerge in my mind.
This proves that the gathering area mentioned by the two people is a good place with a "human touch".
But his nerves, which had been walking on the edge of danger for a long time, told him that things were not that simple.
"In short, let's be careful and don't trust anyone easily."
The tranquility of the factory standing in the night was broken by several people who suddenly broke in. Bifang, who was trapped on the balcony, suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
This place is too small, and if a conflict occurs, it will be very disadvantageous to him.
Bifang arrived outside the wooden door and saw a deep abyss under his feet. He looked around and saw darkness all around. He could not see the way forward at all.
"I have to find a way out now, but the way up is too dangerous, and if I'm discovered while walking on the rails, it will be the end of me."
"But we can't turn on the lights easily now, because that would undoubtedly expose our position, and then we would lose the initiative . I don't know the identity of the people on the other side, and they can't be sure of my existence. They are still in the process of testing, so we must not expose our position."
With one foot on the edge of the wall, Bifang moved carefully. After making sure it was safe, he moved to the side along the narrow wall outside the wooden door.
Just now, Bifang vaguely saw a pipe in the corner of the wall. He was not sure whether it really existed, but he had to go over to take a look.
"This place is six or seven stories high, and the rooms are completely emptied. There are no floors, no stairs, and only beams. I have to find a way to get down. I can only hope that there is a water pipe there, so that we can go down directly along the pipe."
Bifang held onto the wall and approached cautiously. As the distance got closer, the shadow of a steel pipe gradually became clearer in the moonlight.
This scene undoubtedly made everyone excited, and Bifang's speed increased a lot.
He looked at the edge of the wall under his feet. It was just the width of a beam, not too wide, but not too narrow either.
"It's actually quite interesting. If it was on the ground, I probably wouldn't even think about such a small width and would just jump over it. But when there's such a high drop next to you, even moving a little bit might be difficult and make you flustered. We have to calm ourselves down, breathe deeply, and try not to think about other things."
Bifang focused all his attention on his feet, and checked every step to see if it was firm enough to avoid kicking down any stones.
By the same token, if the height is too high, a small stone falling may make a loud noise.
