Chapter 32: Misty Station
Chapter 32: Misty Station
The "Infinity" sped through a range of mountains, and before long, the view that was supposed to gradually open up was shrouded in a thick white fog.
In the cockpit, Chen Sixuan frowned as she looked at the situation on the driving radar.
"It's snowing and there's still this much fog. Something's not right..."
"It's also a good thing."
Lin Xian stared at the thick fog ahead. "Such a large train entering the city is bound to attract the attention of many survivors. This fog has saved us a lot of trouble."
Chen Sixuan looked towards carriage No. 3 with some uneasiness, where KIKI was excitedly adjusting the motorcycle.
"Can you trust her?"
Compared with the relationship between Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan, KIKI was an uninvited guest, and both of them could clearly sense an impenetrable disguise from this girl, so Chen Sixuan was almost skeptical about what she said to her.
Lin Xian's face remained calm as he said calmly, "She is a smart person and knows that this train cannot be driven without me. So unless she has a better survival strategy, if she wants to survive, cooperating with us should be her best choice."
Chen Sixuan nodded slightly when she heard this. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Xian suddenly grabbed her waist and kissed her hard on the lips. This action made Chen Sixuan blush instantly and her heart beat faster. "Oh...what are you doing?" She whispered shyly.
"Teacher Chen." Lin Xian looked at Chen Sixuan with admiration in his eyes. "Luckily, you were there last night."
Chen Sixuan was embraced by him. When she heard Lin Xian's words, she didn't say anything, but joy spread in her heart.
Although she did not appear to be strong on the surface, she had been a strong-willed woman since she was a child and had never been willing to be treated as a vase. At this critical moment of life and death, hearing Lin Xian's recognition of her immediately made her feel recognized.
"Don't underestimate me. After all, I am still your teacher..."
There was a hint of playfulness in Chen Sixuan's words, but then she realized that this sentence seemed a bit ambiguous in the current relationship between men and women, and her expression changed slightly.
Lin Xian smiled faintly, "Yes, they say that teachers are the navigators of life. Now you are indeed the navigator of this train."
Clank, clank!
The train passed through the switch and began to slowly drive into a foggy platform. The visibility was very low, less than a few meters. In order to ensure that it would not collide with other trains parked on the platform, Chen Sixuan quickly pulled down the brake valve.
"Still let me guard the car?"
Lin Xian nodded. "Yes, there is no better way to defend yourself right now. I feel more at ease if you stay here."
Although there would be one less teammate to look for supplies, all his belongings were on the "Infinity" and he would definitely feel uneasy without anyone watching over him.
Moreover, Chen Sixuan is just a weak woman with no special powers and no weapons, so guarding the car is the best choice for her.
Chen Sixuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't open the door for anyone."
Lin Xian looked at her and said, "If you encounter an emergency, you can go to the cockpit of the electric locomotive to start the train. I taught you this before."
At the same time, he took out a white remote control and said, "This is the emergency brake of the electric locomotive. It can be used to start or brake using reserve energy at critical moments."
"Ah, this..."
Chen Sixuan was shocked, and it was a little unbelievable that Lin Xian asked her to drive. Suddenly, her heart was warmed. She knew that this was a sign of Lin Xian's trust in her, so she took it without any pretense, looked at him firmly and said,
"okay, I get it."
After explaining everything to Chen Sixuan, Lin Xian looked at the time, which was 16:50. There were still about 2 hours before dark, so he hurried to carriage No. 3.
At this time, KIKI had already ridden on the motorcycle, wearing the goggles that Lin Xian had prepared for her. She was seen straddling the motorcycle with her long legs and slender waist, stepping on the clutch with great skill, and the image of a sexy motorcycle girl was ready to emerge. "I've been waiting for you. There's not much gas on this motorcycle."
Lin Xian put the short knife behind him and used his ability to slowly lower the tailboard. He walked to the side of the motorcycle and frowned slightly when he saw KIKI with thin arms and long legs.
"Don't ride too fast in such a thick fog."
"Hey, what are you talking about!" KIKI patted the back seat with a look of disgust, "Get in the car quickly."
Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief and got on the back seat. When he was hesitating about where to put his hands, KIKI grabbed his hands and put them on her small waist, saying unhappily, "You were so fierce when you chased me out of the car yesterday, why are you being so shy about grabbing my waist now? Humph, hypocrite!"
Lin Xian: "..."
The temperature outside has dropped below 0 degrees, but KIKI is still wearing shorts and a belly-baring tube top. The thickest thing on her body is her baseball jacket.
Lin Xian held her willow waist with both hands, feeling her fair skin. Although it was elastic and felt good, it was a little cold. He couldn't help but say
"Aren't you afraid of the cold dressed like this?"
"Do I have anything else to wear?"
After saying that, she rolled her eyes at Lin Xian, started the motorcycle, shifted the gear, released the brake, and the motorcycle roared out.
At the same time, Chen Sixuan, who was in charge of guarding the train, quickly retracted the hydraulic tailgate, lowered all the sunshades, and turned off the lights inside the train. The entire train disappeared like a ghost in the thick fog.
Woo~woo~
The white lights of the locomotive pierced through the fog ahead and drove onto a road leading into the city.
In the fog, there was silence all around, with only the roar of the motorcycle engine, which caused the howling of some zombies from all directions.
The roadsides were filled with various broken-down cars, and the various garbage on the road was covered with a thin layer of white snow. Lin Xian felt the biting cold wind, and his worries grew even stronger.
Passenger train cars have heating systems, but the ones on the "Infinity" are decades old and Lin Xian has never turned them on. Repairing or installing heating equipment would be a big project.
Moreover, when the heating system is turned on, the electricity consumption becomes even greater.
In the battle last night, if it weren't for the reserve power assistance of the Huanxing 7F electric locomotive, Lin Xian's physical strength would not be enough to support the battle with the giant insect and run three or four hundred kilometers at the same time.
So the trouble brought by the extreme cold was far more serious than he had imagined.
KIKI set up her mobile phone in front of the motorcycle, which had a preset map on it. Although there was no navigation system, she seemed to have memorized the route by heart and drove very quickly in the fog.
Lin Xian was sitting in the back, a little curious, "Why do I feel like you've been here before?"
"Tsk, I have a very good sense of direction. There are only a few streets here, so how complicated can the traffic be? Hold on tight!"
After saying that, she stepped on the accelerator and the motorcycle accelerated again. But when the two had just driven a few hundred meters, KIKI suddenly slammed on the brakes!
squeak! !
The sound of tires rubbing against each other echoed in the street, and behind him came the sound of a series of approaching zombies.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xian asked.
KIKI frowned and looked at the fog ahead, then said slowly
"There's something ahead!"
