The Walking Dead

Chapter 125

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Lori gritted her teeth and slowly sat down while leaning against the edge of the table.

Seeing this scene, everyone stopped talking and just waited silently for the next arrangement.Tasia glanced at her father worriedly, only she could vaguely guess what Heber would do.

"Starting tomorrow, except for Patricia and Lori, all personnel will be divided into three teams. Me, Morgan, Oscar, Dwayne, Jimmy, Beth, and Amy will be the first team, and the captain will be me. serve.

Rick, Glenn, Big Man, Maggie, Carol, Carl, and Hershel are the second team, and the captain is Rick.

Darryl, Moore, T-boy, Tasia, Andrea, Peggy, and Dell are the third team, and the captain is Darryl. "Speaking of this, Heber with a serious face stopped. This combination was decided after careful consideration.

Each group has an old man, a child, two women, and three main players. Jimmy in the first group, according to his usual combat effectiveness, has been sadly classified as an old man.

There is a serious shortage of manpower in the prison. They must learn how to use the team to fight and fully tap the potential of the old, the weak, women and children, so that they can complete the impossible task they are about to face.

Heber does not intend to tell everyone his purpose directly.

He would break the goals bit by bit, starting with the easiest tasks, and gradually increasing them later.It's like boiling a frog in warm water. Of course, Heber didn't have the time to start with warm water. It would be a little hot at first, but it must be within everyone's tolerance.

He didn't dare to push people into a hurry, which was the fundamental reason why Heber temporarily confiscated everyone's weapons.

He thought that in the years to come, he had to learn how to challenge everyone's bottom line again and again, but also be able to poke their anger before it erupted.

Patricia glanced at Lori's belly, and raised a hand anxiously: "What about us?"

"The two of you have the heaviest task. You need to be responsible for all logistical items, including our breakfast, dinner, dry food at noon, and even the changed clothes." Heber looked at this honest woman apologetically, These things were originally shared by the women, but now he wants to use the woman as a man, so he has to wrong her to do more.And with Lori's temperament, it's really hard to say how much she can help, "Before Sean's injury heals, he can help you with what he can do."

"No!" Lori blurted out, and only after she finished speaking did she realize that everyone's eyes were on her. She blushed, and swallowed back the words abruptly.

Sean sat in the corner with his head down, glanced at Lori and Rick as if inadvertently, and said nothing.

"This is not a discussion, nor is it a discussion. If you can go out with other people to perform missions, I don't mind giving you a gun." Hebe squinted his eyes and directly dismissed her dissatisfaction.

He knew what Lori was worried about, but neither she nor Sean could exercise vigorously, so this arrangement was a last resort.Even if you know something is wrong, there is nothing you can do about it. After all, there is no better choice at present.

No matter what, Heber didn't hope that in such a difficult time, there were still people under his nose who would care about the gains and losses of these love affairs for personal reasons.

Typically, only state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps.Heber, who had transferred Carol away from Tasia and Darryl earlier in the morning, completely forgot at this moment that his behavior was not fair and strict.

However, Heber doesn't care about that, anyway, he has the final say now!

When people's discussions gradually subsided, Heber showed a smile of unknown meaning, with bright white teeth, and everyone's backs were cold when he laughed: "You can move freely tonight, and enjoy this last relaxing night. We will gather here tomorrow morning, and I will announce the tasks of each team for the day.

Now, Jimmy, Beth, Amy, Carl, Dwayne, and Paige, the six of you go out for an hour jog around the field! A few howls erupted from the crowd, and Jimmy stood up and walked out dejectedly.

Lori was about to go to Rakka, but she didn't expect that Karl had already run out with her two little friends.For them, it's as fresh and exciting as an after-dinner escape!

Lori pursed her lips tightly, barely controlling her emotions, and pulled Ricky back into the room.She must figure this out, why did her husband let Heber mess around!She absolutely cannot tolerate that they actually want their young son to go to the battlefield with adults!

Sean also stood up from the corner at this time, and returned to his cubicle without saying a word.If it was in the past, he might have fought for Karl, or directly applied to bring him by his side.But for now, forget it!People may not appreciate it if they say it, they may think that he has other plans.

Sean threw himself into the tiny single bed, doing laundry, cooking, and tidying up the warehouse?It's really troublesome, I didn't expect that he would be reduced to doing such a thing one day.

"Jimmy! You cheer me up, don't look like you are dying, and set a good example for the children!" When the six ran past Heber, he kicked Jimmy's ass precisely. ! "Pei Ji, good job, that's it, don't be too fast, keep up with them at a constant speed!"

Although he looked stern and harsh on the surface, Heber's heart was not as indifferent as it appeared.

When the children were running on the grass, he was always on the sidelines to supervise them. After all, this place is too wide. Even if it is a place that has been patrolled repeatedly, it may not be possible to avoid accidents.If a zombie that was missed suddenly appeared in any corner, he would not forgive himself if he injured any of them casually!

At this moment, Darryl was rummaging through Patricia's place, but in the end he couldn't find a suitable wire, so he had to make an idea of ​​the overturned abandoned car by the gate of the pasture.

Old Dell, who came out to patrol, saw him from a distance, and walked over suspiciously: "Darryl, what are you doing? This car has been scrapped, and it can't be repaired."

"Of course I know it's finished, but I just want to get some parts from it." Darryl used a wrench to pry open the deformed hood, reached in and groped slowly.After a while, he withdrew his hand again, put his foot on the front of the car, and with both hands tried his best to lift the hood that was only a crack open.

Dale hurried forward to help, and the two struggled to open the height for only one person to lean in.

Looking at the large handful of wires that Darryl was holding in his hand after lying on his stomach for a while, and then got out, Old Dale's forehead twitched: "Why do you want this thing, I remember there seems to be some wires in the warehouse. Woolen cloth."

"I've looked for it, but I couldn't find it. Maybe someone used it, or put it in some hidden place. Anyway, I didn't find it." Even if it was there, it could be hidden so that he couldn't find it Wherever you go, it's quite a skill.

Darryl now really feels that Patricia can't manage it alone.The food recovered from the prison, as well as the weapons Woodbury had stolen, were dumped into one of the innermost compartments on the first floor.

He just walked in and took a look, and the items inside were stacked in piles, with weapons and equipment on one side and food materials on the other, filling the entire narrow space to the brim.Fortunately, all the clips and bullets were put away by Heber, otherwise even Pei Ji could just go in and pick up a gun to play with.

"I'll be busy starting tomorrow, and I don't know how Heber will torment us. While I'm still free, I'm going to use this to draw a curtain for Tasia," Darryl held up the pile of things and shook them at the old man. After shaking, he said with a smile, "I'll send some to you later, I got a lot of cloth today, everyone has a share!"

Old Dale took the messy wires and carefully cleaned them one by one: "Actually, if you want to draw the door curtain, you can just sew a piece of cloth at the same time. There is no need to look for this. These wires are not long enough. If you want to use them , you have to connect them first, which is a delicate job."

Darryl smiled slightly, but didn't speak. Dale looked up at the sweat on his head, and suddenly smiled: "Tasia will be very happy to know that you are so considerate of her." He just likes to see the children below love each other and live in harmony, he patted Darryl on the shoulder encouragingly, "Okay, I got some needlework from Patricia's two days ago, I'll bring it to you when I go back later," the old man winked at him slyly, "Maybe, we can take this opportunity to test Kautasia's handiwork."

Remembering that his wife also liked to make some delicate gadgets by herself before she was alive, Dell's eyes were a little dry. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed.

After getting the needle and thread from the old man, Tasia wasn't bothered by them.

Speaking of this needlework, she still remembers when she was in elementary school, she got an A in craft class for successfully embroidering a handkerchief.Although it is just a small flower embroidered on the lower left corner of the handkerchief and a round sun embroidered on the upper right corner, it is already a remarkable thing for eight or nine-year-old children.

At that time, she was thin and small, she looked malnourished, her grades were not particularly good, and she was like a background board in school.Being affirmed by the teacher made her secretly happy for a long time.

So when she grew up, she would sew some pillowcases, cushions and other things from time to time. Although she had never made large items, the curling of a mere door curtain was not a problem.

Darryl was sitting on the head of the bed sharpening short arrows, while Tasia was threading needles and doing handwork quietly.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on her side through the glass windows covered with iron bars in the prison area. Her smooth forehead is as shiny as jade, and there are tiny fluffs on the hairline, like thousands of little hands, gently scratching her face. his heart.

In the silent cubicle, Darryl could hear her slight breathing. When he felt his gaze, Tasia would raise her head, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then continued their work .

Under the hustle and bustle of the world, on the plain where countless zombies wander, in a prison standing alone, deep warmth gradually spreads in the small cell.
