Chapter 2 Waiting

Ye Xuan made a prompt decision and ran to the balcony and closed the door.

Xia Chenxi stopped what he was doing and walked towards the balcony door step by step.

Ye Xuan clenched his hands; his palms were already wet. In front of him was his roommate who had been bitten and might turn into a zombie at any time, and behind him was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

"Xia Chenxi, stop."

"Stop, please."

"Xia Chenxi, I asked you to stop."

Xia Chenxi continued walking forward and stopped in front of the glass door. His voice sounded muffled through the glass door.

"Ye Xuan, what are you doing?"

Doesn't this man know that he has been bitten?

Ye Xuan calmed himself down and said to him calmly, "I don't think anyone is trustworthy in this situation. So you stay inside and I'll stay outside. This is good for both of us."

"Because I was bitten."

Xia Chenxi looked calmer than Ye Xuan, as if he was talking about something unimportant.

He knew he was bitten but still came in and acted like nothing happened.

Ye Xuan was filled with hatred, but was afraid that what he said would anger Xia Chenxi.

As long as Xia Chenxi wanted, he could open the door before he mutated, and then he would be unable to escape.

"Xia Chenxi, I don't think there have been any conflicts between you and me in the past half semester, right?"

Or is he essentially an antisocial personality, and the more times like this happen, the more he wants to take revenge on society, no, on the people around him.

Xia Chenxi stared at Ye Xuan without saying a word.

Ye Xuan also stared at Xia Chenxi. He was thinking about the chance that Xia Chenxi would run out of the room the moment the door opened.

Almost none.

The doors were blocked.

"Xia Chenxi, we are roommates after all. The probability of you and I meeting each other is one in 1.4 billion. Don't you think it's amazing? So, let me go."

Ye Xuan couldn't see through Xia Chenxi's expressionless face and didn't know what he was thinking.

All he can do now is to guard the door tightly.

"You come in, I'll go outside."

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Ye Xuan pulled the corner of his mouth, "If you want to bite me, just say it."

Xia Chenxi didn't say anything else, but Ye Xuan saw a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Afterwards, Xia Chenxi locked himself in the toilet.

Ye Xuan hesitated on the balcony. Human nature is the most vulnerable to test. Xia Chenxi's performance just now made him unable to trust him.

But if he wanted to survive, he had to return to his room, where food, water, and his cell phone were.

After staying on the balcony for a while, Ye Xuan heard Xia Chenxi didn't make any sound, so he asked him tentatively: "Xia Chenxi, are you still human now?"

No answer.

He wouldn't have turned into a zombie.

Ye Xuan carefully opened the balcony door and walked in.

"I have a box of instant noodles under my desk."

Xia Chenxi spoke, startling Ye Xuan.

He ran past the toilet door like a thief, took out his cell phone and dialed 110.

However, a robotic voice came from the other end of the line.

"The line is currently busy. Your call has entered the queue system. Please wait patiently."

I called several times, but none of them answered.

It seems that the outside has also fallen.

He called his parents again, but the call didn't go through.

Anyway, no news is the best news.

Ye Xuan took out all the available power sources in the dormitory, charged them all, and took out all the basins and filled them with water.

No matter whether it is a foot basin or not, just install it first.

It's better than drinking urine after the water is cut off.

Then, Ye Xuan began to look for food in the dormitory.

Li Wen, Lin Dong and he didn't like to hoard things, so he found two bags of bread, a bag of spicy strips and two bottles of water at their seats.

Then I have to rely on Xia Chenxi's box of instant noodles to survive.

Ye Xuan found the box of instant noodles and discovered that there was another box next to the box.

He took apart the instant noodle box and also took apart the box next to it.

There was no food inside, but——

Bite stopper.

You wouldn't expect Xia Chenxi, who looks so rigid, to be quite playful in private.

Ye Xuan put the black iron bite stopper back on Xia Chenxi's desk.

The screams and the sounds of zombies biting each other outside were gradually decreasing, and it was estimated that the survivors had already hidden themselves.

Ye Xuan turned on his phone and found that the news in the dormitory building had exploded.

Most of the messages were asking what to do and whether there would be rescue.

Of course, no one can answer this kind of news at the moment. Considering that the school has not issued any notice even though the zombies have developed to this point, we know that the school’s management and security systems have been paralyzed.

We can only place our hopes on rescue from outside the school.

Some people also asked if the dormitory manager was okay.

[Auntie, I just saw her being pushed out. 】

A long series of indignant conversations followed.

Ye Xuan didn't watch any more, but opened Douyin. The first video was of a zombie limping. At first, people around were still asking questions, until the zombies started biting the people around them, and then everyone began to flee in panic.

I watched several videos like this one.

He opened the search box and searched for zombies. A term called R virus appeared below and he clicked on it.

[So far, citizens in many areas have been rioting, mainly in the surrounding areas of Baihe. They bite others unconsciously, and the people bitten will also go crazy. We have extracted a virus from the bodies of crazy citizens, and we have preliminarily confirmed that it is this virus that causes people to go crazy. Researchers call it the riot virus, or R virus for short. 】

[Citizens in Baihe and its surrounding areas please do not panic, try to hide at home or indoors and wait for rescue. 】

So, the location of his university is the birthplace of the virus.

His home is not far from the university, and it only takes an hour to get there by high-speed rail.

I don’t know how my parents are doing.

Ye Xuan sat on the ground and waited for an entire afternoon, but no rescue came.

It was getting dark and his stomach was growling. He hadn't eaten anything since morning.

Ye Xuan turned on the light and took out a bag of bread from the food and ate it.

There was no movement in the bathroom, and I didn't know if Xia Chenxi had turned into a zombie.

Ye Xuan walked to the toilet and asked Xia Chenxi: "Xia Chenxi, are you okay now?"

“Not very good.”

To Ye Xuan's surprise, Xia Chenxi answered him, although the answer was not a good one.

The conversation between the two people ended here.

Xia Chenxi had been bitten for such a long time but he hadn’t turned into a zombie yet. However, he just saw the person who was bitten turned into a zombie immediately.

Could it be that Xia Chenxi’s determination to learn is so strong that it has not changed?

After all, Xia Chenxi is a human being now, so should he share the food with him?

If he doesn't share it, this box of instant noodles belongs to Xia Chenxi, and it would be unreasonable for him not to share it; if he shares it, he doesn't know when he can be rescued, and one less piece of food means one less piece of hope.

After struggling for a while, Ye Xuan took out a piece of bread, flattened it and stuffed it through the crack in the door to Xia Chenxi.

If Xia Chenxi had not turned into a zombie, he couldn't starve Xia Chenxi to death.
