Chapter 142: Chapter 145 As if
"It's time to go." Carl said softly.
By the farm fence, several cars were ready to start, and behind the cars stood some people.
Everyone, everyone still on the farm, which wasn't a lot, seven cars, a box truck, and six horses, including Bucephalus, were loaded into it.
Although he could ride a horse directly there, it would still be slower than a car. More importantly, Carl was afraid that the horse would be frightened when encountering zombies and would lose its way in a panic.
Even if the horses were loaded into the carts, there were still enough other vehicles to carry all the people and things that needed to be taken away, all at once.
Most people had already gotten in the car, except for Hershel's family, Sean, Carl, and Glenn, who were still standing at the back of the car looking at the farm.
Beth nodded, glancing over to Hershel and giving Carl a look.
Carl understood what Beth meant. It wasn't her who didn't want to leave, it was Hershel.
Carl didn't urge him anymore, because he knew that Hershel was already prepared and had made a decision, he was just reluctant to do so, and a little time would be enough.
Indeed, after a long time, Hershel turned around and said, "Okay, let's get ready to go. Don't delay too long."
"Well, Dad, you get in the car first." Maggie helped Hershel into the RV, and everyone else got into different vehicles.
Carl and Beth got on the truck. Glenn was the driver. The armored vehicle was also loaded with a lot of supplies. Lori was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Send it out. I'll lead the way. Contact me via walkie-talkie if anything happens." Sean's voice came from the reward.
Glenn picked up the intercom and responded, "Roger that."
Soon, the convoy began to move in an orderly manner, forming a long dragon.
After the car entered the main road, driving became easier. Glenn turned his head and smiled, "Carl, what is that place you mentioned?"
"Not bad, Glenn, you can talk while driving, but keep your eyes on the road in front of you," said Carl.
Carl was sitting in the middle seat, and Beth was sitting on the side, looking out the window with her head tilted.
Glenn has a lively personality, at least he hasn't experienced too many things so far, and he remains lively now. He is excited to leave the farm where he has stayed for a long time and go to an unknown place.
However, Glenn also cared about the feelings of others, and did not show his excitement too obviously. He just chatted with Carl about some boring topics.
Carl coped helplessly.
With more vehicles, the speed will inevitably slow down. If you leave at around 8 o'clock, it will be good enough if you can arrive before 12 o'clock.
Carl knew that there was still a long way to go.
"Glenn, are you thirsty?" Carl asked suddenly.
"well enough."
"Well, we didn't bring any water. Maybe you should stay quiet so you don't get thirsty later."
"Damn it, Carl, I thought you were going to give me water. You always surprise me."
Carl nodded and didn't respond. If it were normal times, maybe Carl would still be in the mood to chat with Glenn, even if the chat was meaningless.
But it's clear that Carl is not in this mood now.
He turned his head and looked out the window, but in fact Carl's eyes were all on Beth's profile.
"Beth, are you okay?"
"What's wrong? I'm fine." Beth turned her head and smiled.
"It's okay, just continue watching." Carl also smiled.
Why would young boys and girls feel homesick? As long as the person they care about is right in front of them, what difference does it make if they are at the ends of the earth?
Beth was actually a little excited. She hadn't been away from the farm for a long time, and the outside world was always so attractive.
Little do we know that the world outside is not as good as home.
There was no rain on the road, and as we drove, the sun rose into the sky. The weather today would be good.
Carl glanced at Glenn. It would be better if Glenn was not there. Carl preferred to be alone with Beth rather than having others around.
But someone had to drive. Although Carl felt that he already knew how to drive and had tried it on the farm, it was not very convenient to drive because he was still too small.
What's more, this is a truck.
As if you will never get tired of looking at it, the scenery outside the window is not new, but it always attracts the attention.
I don't know how far they walked, but it should be more than an hour. Carl felt sleepy, so he leaned on Beth and closed his eyes.
…
"Carl." Beth pinched Carl's nose.
"What's wrong?" Carl pushed Beth's hand away, yawned, and his eyes were a little hazy.
"Sean just said we're almost there. Do you still want to sleep?" Beth asked.
Carl rubbed his eyes. "No, there are many things to do later. I have to choose a room and have a meeting."
After Carl left Beth's body, Beth finally stretched as if she was relieved.
Glenn asked curiously, "Meeting? What kind of meeting?"
"Everyone together, Sean has something to say." Carl said.
"What's the matter?" Glenn continued to ask.
"A lot. You'll know when the time comes." Carl said perfunctorily, then looked at Beth and said:
"Beth, you can go pick our room later."
"We? No way, Carl, there are just no extra rooms on the farm. Didn't you say there are plenty of rooms here?" Beth was a little dissatisfied.
Karl was slightly stunned, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said nothing more.
"Carl, are you okay?" Beth asked weakly.
Karl shook his head and whispered, "Don't you want to? Do you hate me? Or do you have someone you like?"
"Oh my God, Carl, what is going on here?" Beth sighed helplessly, "I just think this shouldn't be the case. This is not right.""There's nothing wrong with that. This matter has been decided. There is no room for negotiation." Karl said in a very calm tone, but there was no room for negotiation in his words.
"Then I just don't want to, let's see what you have to do." Beth snorted in dissatisfaction, crossed her arms and turned her head away.
"Hehehe...you guys go on and don't care about me." Glenn couldn't help but laugh.
"I..."
Karl opened his mouth but didn't say what he wanted to say. There are some things he needs to know whether he should say them or not.
Carl closed his eyes again, but this time he leaned back in his seat.
Not hearing Carl's voice, Beth hesitated for a moment and turned her head, then saw Carl leaning against his seat with a look of despair, his little mouth pouted, as if he was very dissatisfied but unable to vent.
Beth couldn't help but smile. She wanted to say something, but was hesitant. She was very annoyed. Well, Beth was also very annoyed.
"We're here, right? The prison. I didn't expect this would be my first time in prison."
The truck was parked on the road with several cars ahead of it, and Glenn looked at the prison ahead.
Carl knew he had arrived, but still didn't open his eyes. Carl didn't know what expression he should use when he saw Beth again. He was very annoyed, very annoyed.
The prison gate was opened, and Sean notified other vehicles through the intercom, entered, and drove directly into the inner wall.
Cars stopped in the wide square. Sean was the first to take Lori out of the armored vehicle, and then others began to get out.
Glenn looked helplessly at Carl and Beth who didn't say a word and didn't get out of the car.
"Should we go down too?"
