Chapter 112 – Go and visit San Ge's house

When using the device, point the metal rod towards a certain area. Within the detection range, as long as there is a human body, a scanning wave will generate a green dot at the corresponding position. The position will change with distance and the thickness of obstacles, so it is not very accurate, but the error is not significant.

After testing, no matter if Pan Wenxiang hides in a house or behind a wall, he can still be detected. However, as the number of walls increases, the scanning distance becomes shorter and the brightness of the green dot becomes weaker. But if Pan Wenxiang hides behind a car or in an underground basement with a metal layer, he can hardly be detected.

"I'll give you the gun and bullets, but keep the safety on and don't hold the gun in your hand. Your main task is to hold it, and I and Team Leader Randy will take care of the rest. Let's go!"

In addition to humans, this device also reacts to zombies, including dead bodies. This indicates that it does not rely on infrared and thermal radiation, and no one can explain the principle.

Hong Tao has never tested whether zombies have body temperature. If they don't, then the thermal imager would be useless. But unexpectedly obtaining this device has greatly increased Hong Tao's confidence.

What is outside the east wall of the South Korean Embassy? It is also an embassy, jokingly called "Third Brother," officially known as the Republic of India. Instead of entering the South Korean Embassy again, Hong Tao and the others followed the wall and went east, circling to the northeast corner of the Indian Embassy, and quietly climbed over the wall using the ladder they found at the American Embassy.

With the assistance of the human radar, they can detect the distribution of zombies and living people within tens of meters inside the wall, providing convenient conditions for finding the most suitable breakthrough point. There are fewer zombies on this side, and they are far away from the main buildings, with a small garden for easy hiding.

They waited for half an hour. During this time, two wandering zombies detected the target through smell or hearing and walked straight towards them. In order to avoid exposure, the three of them did not rush to shoot. They only used the silenced pistols to headshot the zombies when they were within 5 meters.

"Captain Hong, you are being biased. Why doesn't my gun have a silencer?" Pan Wenxiang looked at Hong Tao and Randy, who were calm and composed, easily dealing with the zombies with just a movement of their fingers. Pan Wenxiang felt frustrated. Playing with guns is just like driving a car. The more you get addicted, the more you want to do it. If he is allowed to drive every day, he would want to stay as far away as possible.

"There are only two silencers in the unpacked equipment... Pay close attention to the device and don't make any mistakes. I'll let you shoot twice later!" Hong Tao's nonsense came out effortlessly, even more smooth than telling the truth.

These two silencers are not placed outside, but separately packaged in a batch of eight. This means that they don't want Pan Wenxiang to shoot. But seeing the resentful look in the chubby guy's eyes, Hong Tao put himself in his shoes and thought for a moment. He felt that not letting him shoot at all might affect his mood, so he compromised.

"There is not a single one nearby. Look for yourself!" Pan Wenxiang wasn't easily fooled, mainly because he was fooled too badly last time, which hurt his heart. He refused to be easily deceived again and stubbornly insisted.

"Alright, Randy..." Seeing that Pan Wenxiang didn't fall for it, Hong Tao stopped trying to deceive him with words. It was already past 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and it would be dark in two hours. Waiting for the zombies to come to them failed, so they had to take the initiative.

"Can you stop playing with that useless thing and pay attention? I'll go lure the nearby zombies over!" But when he turned his head, Randy was standing motionless behind a tree trunk, holding the newly acquired military binoculars and observing. She didn't even hear his words.

In fact, she wasn't holding it. The binoculars were fixed in the slot in front of her helmet. She just pulled it down and placed it in front of her eyes for easy viewing. Pushing it up would make it stand vertically in front of the helmet, without obstructing the line of sight.

Hong Tao had also tried this function just now, and it was indeed convenient. However, having a heavy object hanging above his forehead was uncomfortable and affected his agility. In the end, he gave up. After all, the binoculars used by the Marine Corps were not big, and they had a plastic shell, so it was not troublesome to use them on the waist belt.

Zombies have a keen sense of smell or hearing. Hong Tao had tested this a long time ago and obtained basic data. He even developed a killing method based on this.

If they encounter an area with a relatively dense population of zombies, one or two people will act as bait and slowly approach the nearest zombie until it notices them, and then slowly retreat. As long as they don't make too much noise, these zombies will immediately chase after them, while the nearby zombies act as if nothing happened.

The reason why Hong Tao told Chu Qiu that zombies are not scary is based on their extremely low intelligence. As long as humans can have a significant advantage in intelligence, there are plenty of ways to win.

Now Hong Tao is using this trick again. He crouched on the ground and crawled forward on all fours. He would crawl for one or two meters and then stop for more than ten seconds before crawling again. This gave the zombies enough reaction time and prevented them from attracting too many zombies by moving too fast."He's here, he's here, Captain Hong, look to the west, about seventy meters!" Just after crawling out for more than twenty meters, Pan Wenxiang's voice rang out in the helmet, the human radar had found the target!

A few dozen seconds later, a zombie wearing a light-colored suit appeared in the line of sight, just coming out from around the corner of a house. After two tests, the human radar was proven to be effective not only for humans but also for detecting zombies, regardless of whether they were blocked by walls or houses.

This discovery made Hong Tao very happy. With the help of the human radar, it would be much safer to clear zombies in alleys and buildings, and its usefulness was even greater than firearms. After all, it was impossible to fire a gun in a densely populated zombie area, which would truly cause a riot.

"I see it, there's only one, you come over slowly, try to step lightly!" Rewarding merit, as the great contributor to the discovery of the human radar, Pan Wenxiang was exceptionally allowed to shoot live ammunition for the first time with a real gun, which was a silenced pistol used by the U.S. Marine Corps Embassy Security Group. Even if he only fired two shots, it was a high starting point!

"Don't even think about it, I'll say it again, zombies are very sensitive to gunshots, they can detect them from hundreds or even thousands of meters away. If you have a brain, calculate how many zombies there will be within a few hundred meters, and whether we have the ability to kill them all!"

But Pan Wenxiang was clearly not very satisfied with the power of the pistol, and looked at the rifle on Hong Tao's back, only to be scolded, along with those triangular eyes flashing with fierce light.

Pan Wenxiang had heard more than once from other team members about Captain Hong sneaking into other survivor teams in the middle of the night, wiping out more than a dozen people with just a paratrooper knife, and rescuing enslaved survivors.

He didn't believe it before, because these stories all came from Jiao Qiao's mouth. Who is Jiao Qiao? He's been a friend of Captain Hong for more than ten years, they were close before the great disaster, and now they are his right-hand man, it's very reasonable for him to boast about his leader.

"I understand, I understand... or I'll give this gun back to you, I... I don't have much use for it..." But at this moment, Pan Wenxiang felt a bit credible, yes, it was the fierce light. If there was any doubt at this time, the paratrooper knife tied to his thigh might cut his own neck.

"Keep it, just don't misuse it. In case both me and Captain Lan are bitten by zombies, you can still struggle with it. If there are no other problems, let's continue, try to find it before it gets dark!"

Fear is sometimes more convenient than trust, it doesn't require time-consuming cultivation, nor does it need to consider the other person's thoughts, just need to be a bit more ruthless. Hong Tao didn't deliberately show his ruthless trait in his daily life, in fact, he didn't have this trait, if he did, he would have been an emperor in his previous life.

But the reputation of being ruthless and killing without blinking an eye, like other negative reputations, follows him like a shadow. It really confirms the old saying, good news never leaves the house, bad news travels a thousand miles!

In the blink of an eye, another hour passed, the sun was already waving in the west, but the target they wanted to find never appeared, although they killed quite a few ordinary zombies. With the human radar and the silenced pistol, the speed of clearing zombies has more than doubled.

"Sun Ge, give me a little more time, I'm always uneasy without finding that thing. Don't worry, I'll be careful, I'll definitely leave before it gets dark!"

Sun Jianshe had already urged twice, they had long packed the vehicles, but there was no one to wait for and no news, although the zombies in the embassy courtyard were all cleaned up, it was not a place to stay for long.
