Chapter 72 We are going out!
When I woke up, I saw the old woman's frightened eyes right next to my eyes. I was so scared that I quickly sat up and looked at my "masterpiece" last night. I blamed myself, but now I want to go back to the police station right away.
, otherwise they will come out to look for me. It would be bad if they find out that I killed the old woman.
I first went to the kitchen, washed away the blood on my body, and then went to the bedroom. There were some clothes in there. Although they were a bit too big for me, they should have belonged to the old woman and her daughter! Just dress casually. I deliberately put them on when I went out.
When the electric grid door opened, the first thing I did was to steal a piece of clothing from a clothing store not far away, and burn the clothes I was wearing and the clothes I changed out of. I saw a lot of people on the road! They all reported to the city government
I walked over and asked an elderly man what was going on. He said, "We really can't stand this kind of life anymore. We have to go outside!"
"Are you going to rebel?"
"It's not about rebellion, it's about regaining our freedom."
I pushed through the crowd and came to the city hall. Outside, a group of police officers were persuading people and preventing them from entering the hall. I saw Director Wei pacing anxiously in the hall.
"Director Wei," I shouted, "Where's the mayor?"
"I'm here to see him too. By the way, where were you last night?"
"I went to find my classmate. She lives here, so I stayed at her house for one night." I said.
"Don't leave without saying goodbye in the future. This will make everyone worry."
"I won't do it anymore." I said.
"Why don't you drive those people away quickly? What do you want the police to do?" The mayor was very angry when he walked into the hall.
"We represent the interests of the people. What's more, those who can come out during the day are all human beings. I think we can move them outside and then burn this place. Wouldn't our family be safe?" Director Wei did not show any weakness.
"You should tell the leader. Do you think I didn't say it? Don't the superiors disagree? They think we have all become ghosts now. How about being threatened here? I'm getting tired of it! Go away,
I don’t care about anything from now on! Let’s go!”
"Okay! Then forget about my rudeness!" Director Wei said word for word.
When we were leaving, Director Wei stood on the steps outside the door and said, "Comrades, listen to me and be quiet!"
Everyone fell silent.
"The mayor doesn't care about you, I can't care about you. Let's go find those who are guarding the border now. Everyone, follow me!"
We walked in front, and tens of thousands of people followed behind us. The scene was really spectacular. Every family sent a representative!
We came to the nearest border. There was a viewing platform set up outside to observe the situation inside. As soon as we appeared, the machine guns were immediately set up, and a leader-like person was watching us with a telescope.
We walked into the power grid, and someone on the stage shouted: "If we come any closer, we will get electricity!"
Director Wei shouted: "We are human beings. Those monsters only come out at night. Don't be afraid. The citizens asked that they be moved outside the city!"
"Who knows whether you are humans or ghosts? We can't trust you!" the man replied.
"We are really human beings!" Director Wei said.
The people behind started shouting and asking to get out.
"You go back, otherwise, we won't be polite!"
"We won't go back unless you let us out!" Director Wei said.
The leader above made a fuss, and one person said impulsively, "Let's all crawl towards the power grid, see if they really dare to electrocute us?" Several people tried to climb onto the power grid despite Director Wei's obstruction, but when they came into contact, they were scorched by electricity.
.Now people became even more angry, with curses, cries, and shouts becoming a chaotic mess.
The leader made another gesture, and several machine guns fired at several people. Some people were frightened and walked back, while others were still moving forward. At this time, a large area of machine gun fire came in. We quickly got down. Director Wei shouted
: "Get down, get down!"
I crawled in the crowded crowd, with traces of bullets flying above my head. Everyone crawled forward. Finally, they stopped shooting and everyone else ran away. I looked around for Director Wei, who should be at the back.
, he is so responsible, he will not leave until the others leave. I looked back, and there were people lying in pieces, a sea of blood. Director Wei was among the corpses. He seemed to have been wounded by a gunshot.
, I ran over and saw a big hole in the leg, with blood flowing out of it. I quickly tore off my sleeves and wrapped the leg. I also took off the relatively clean clothes of the corpse next to me and tied Director Wei's leg.
"Leave me alone, I deserve to die. Look at these people, I'm the one who killed them. I don't want to live anymore!" Director Wei pushed me away.
"No, no, you are a good official!" I said, "I won't let you die!"
