The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 95 Clementine
The motel where Li and Kenny were staying temporarily was not far away. It took less than 5 minutes to drive there and reach their destination.

Before getting off the car, Leon also learned the little girl's name, Clementine, from Li.

When he heard the name, he suddenly felt that it sounded familiar. He thought about it for dozens of seconds and looked at the middle-aged black man named Li and the little mixed-race girl with wheat-colored skin.

The content of the game version of "The Walking Dead" suddenly appeared in his mind. However, he had never played this game. He just watched the game anchor explain the plot, and he had almost forgotten the content. Man Ting’s little girl, and the black male protagonist is very kind to this girl. The relationship between the two is like a father and daughter, dependent on each other, which is very touching.

However, now that they have met him here, the fate of this group of people has also been changed.

There were 5 people in the motel, some old and some young. When they saw such a large group of people surrounding them, all of them dressed as fully armed soldiers, they all suddenly panicked.

Fortunately, Kenny, Li and other survivors quickly got out of the car after seeing what happened and explained to each other, so no bloody accident happened.

After entering the motel, Leon found that the environment here was quite shabby, and there were some zombies active in the surrounding buildings. They built a wooden wall with various scraps, blocking most of the gaps, leaving only one that could Iron gate for car entry.

Seeing that the survivors here were talking and doing things very softly and did not dare to make too much noise, Leon ordered Daryl to clean up the zombies in the area, so as not to attract these garbage and disturb him when chatting later. conversation.

This move won the favor of everyone in the motel. Facing this tall, handsome man with a good temperament and the two beautiful women who followed him, everyone gradually let go of their guard.

After some self-introduction, Leon knew the identities and names of these people. The young white girl with the pistol was a reporter named Carly, while Kenny used to be a fisherman, and his wife was named Katja. It is a veterinarian, the child of the two, the little boy about 8 years old is named Duck.

Among the five people in the motel, there was a father and daughter. The old man's name was Larry, who was once a navy man, his daughter's name was Lily, a serving U.S. Air Force pilot, and there was a thin male high school student. Named Ben, these three people, together with the previous eight people including the Kenny family, Lee and Clementine, and the female reporter, all escaped from the Atlanta area.

The remaining young white couple, husband Anya and wife Matala, who used to run a bakery in Roberta Jun, fled to Fort Benning at the beginning of the disaster. Later, what happened in Fort Benning During the civil strife, they escaped and stayed in Troy Jun, struggling to survive and being quite familiar with the local situation.

At this time, it was already noon. In order to gain the favor and trust of these people, Leon invited them to have lunch together. Compared with the ordinary survivors who have always been quite scarce in resources, the lunch of Leon and others seemed very rich and delicious. delicious.

Not only are there a variety of canned meats, delicious bread and wine, but there are even many fresh vegetables and fruits. These things are simply a must-have for ordinary survivors who have been running around at the critical moment of life and death and are in a state of hunger for a long time. Delicious food on earth.

During the meal, Leon discovered that Kevira seemed to be very interested in little Clementine. While giving her various delicacies, he was chatting with the little girl. He even saw a girl. The two women, the older and the younger, were chatting, and they both showed long-lost smiles, which made him very curious.

After drinking and eating, everyone fell into a state of contentment and happiness. Leon did not delay and began to ask Anya and his wife about the true situation of the refugees in Troy County.

After a detailed understanding, Leon found that the situation here was also very different from the refugee camp he imagined.

There are indeed quite a few survivors in Troy and the surrounding areas. These refugees seem to have begun to distrust each other after the civil strife at the Fort Benning military base. They did not organize themselves into a large cohesive group, but instead They fought on their own and dispersed, forming many small groups, ranging from hundreds of people to two or three people, all living in this area where bosses were relatively rare.

After more than half a year of friction, these groups, large and small, not only failed to communicate unanimously to the outside world, but even had conflicts, disputes and even fights with each other over various resource issues.

However, the Troy Mutual Aid Association, which has the largest number of members among these refugees, occupied a village outside the town of Troy. It was originally a planting and breeding village that sold various foods and vegetables. It not only stored a considerable amount of various staple foods, but also provided long-term supplies. Everything from vegetables to eggs to even fresh pork and beef.

It has become the most influential organization in this area.

The Troy Mutual Aid Society not only has plenty of food and a large number of people, but also has a lot of guns and bullets. However, this group of people can be considered good people. In order to help other survivors, they will take in orphans who have lost their parents, and they have also organized groups outside the village. A long-standing bazaar that allows survivors living nearby to exchange their collected living materials or labor for food.

So gradually, this market has also become a trading market for refugees in the surrounding areas of Troy County. They will trade all kinds of items they have collected. Various types of bullets and firearms as well as food have become hard currency here.

After listening to Anya and his wife's introduction, Leon and others couldn't help but sigh. Human beings are really adaptable creatures. No matter what kind of environment they are, they can adapt quickly and find their own way of survival.

Now that he had learned the information he wanted, Leon simply confessed to these ten survivors, told them about the situation of the Umbrella Company, and made a recruitment request to these people.

Not surprisingly, everyone is very interested in this recruitment. It is really rare to find an organization that provides a safe living environment and sufficient food in the apocalypse. No survivor is willing to miss such an opportunity.

But these people have endured too many beatings in the outside environment. They have all been deceived, hurt and fought with each other. They cannot trust others so easily.Leon did not force it. After some negotiation, Li took the initiative to stand up and was willing to go to the Umbrella Company's base with them first. After confirming the authenticity of the matter, he would come back and bring other survivors to join the Umbrella Company.

After all, it was a matter of life, and such a request was not too much. Leon agreed and invited them to temporarily live together in the canning factory near Fort Benning.

This suggestion was not rejected by anyone. It is the dream of all survivors to live in a safer environment.

After simply cleaning up, everyone left the simple motel and went to the canning factory together.

At this time, Kenny and other survivors also saw Lyon's huge team of more than 300 people, as well as the various tanks, armored vehicles, artillery and other powerful equipment they collected from Fort Benning, and they all put down their doubts. , Excited and reassured that I have found a strong organization.

It was still the third day, and it was still a week away from the appointment with Iron Wolf Frank, so there was still plenty of time. Leon and Anya had agreed that tomorrow morning, they would go to the public gathering place of the Troy Mutual Aid Association. city.

After arranging patrols and security personnel, everyone was given a half-day holiday to take a short rest in the area.

Leon returned to his room, only to find that Kevela and little Clementine were already here. They were leaning on the sofa, with a moist sheen in the corners of their eyes. It was obvious that they had cried just now.

Although he was a little curious, he still walked over and put his arms around the red-haired girl's shoulders, holding her in his arms. He then reached out and touched little Clementine's head, took out a bag of high-end candies from his pocket, and handed it to her. Little girl's hands.

Hugging Keweila, he took out a tissue and wiped her tears. Leon kissed her forehead and asked softly:
"Why are you crying? Did you think of something sad?"

The red-haired girl sniffed, buried her face in Leon's arms, hugged his waist with both hands, and said softly:
"I think of my parents and brothers. When the disaster happened, I could only lie on the hospital bed helplessly, waiting for fate to come, unable to do anything."

"Not even seeing any of them for the last time."

"They love me so much, they never force me to do anything, they give me all their love, but I have nothing to repay them."

"Perhaps, they are all dead, and I am the only one left in the whole family, still living alone."

The girl's voice was mournful, and tears flowed down the corners of her eyes again.

Leon gently helped the girl wipe away her tears. The Kevela he had always seen was an elite girl who was full of wildness, free and easy, as if she didn't care about anything.

Unexpectedly, deep down in her heart, she had actually been hiding a lot of sadness, just because she had been suppressing her feelings and not bursting out.

Recalling the first time I saw Kevela in King County Hospital, the red-haired girl was indeed lying on the bed like a corpse, just living, as if she didn't care about danger and terror, even in the face of the people outside the hospital. The zombies also showed no fluctuation at all.

He thought it was because the girl was gifted and had courage and courage that ordinary people could not match. Unexpectedly, it was just that after losing all her family members, Kevira was depressed and had no nostalgia.

Later, under the influence of survival instinct, the girl gradually recovered her past grace, but for some unknown reason, the sadness she accumulated after meeting Clementine exploded today.

He held the girl in his arms, whispered in her ear:

"Don't worry, my dear, I will always love you and stay by your side."

Keweila snorted coldly and cursed softly:

"Bah, you are also a bastard, an irresponsible scumbag."

The girl cursed, but her arms hugged Leon's waist tighter.
