Time is like a gust of wind, scattering what should have been and what didn't.

...

A horde of monsters pounced on Liangzi and Wu Shuang, and it looked like the two were about to be torn to pieces by the monsters.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out from behind us.

I shrank back in fright and saw the monster that lunged at Liangzi be instantly killed by a headshot.

Immediately afterwards, gunshots rang out continuously. Fei Lichao walked up from behind us and shot a monster dead with a single shot.

Liangzi seized the opportunity, pulled Wu Shuang up from the ground, and pushed her towards us.

I caught Wu Shuang and asked, "Are you alright?"

"No, it's nothing." Wu Shuang was terrified, her face turning pale.

I looked up.

Wu Shuang is out of danger, but Liangzi isn't!

Liangzi was standing at the corner when a monster pounced on his back and knocked him to the ground. Wu Shuang and I were heartbroken and had no idea what to do.

Fei Lichao's gun kept firing, and the monsters that had been drawn away by the sound of grenade explosions were once again attracted back by the gunfire.

Upon seeing this, Pu Weichao immediately grabbed me and shouted, "Hey, stop looking! Let's go! Those monsters are back!"

Seeing the situation around me, Pu Weichao pulled me back inside through the back door.

Pu Weichao slammed the door shut, blocking the two monsters that were running towards him.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't close the door! They're still outside!" Wu Shuang shouted anxiously.

Pu Weichao stopped Wu Shuang and said, "What's your rush? Those two have guns, nothing will happen!"

Sure enough, not long after he finished speaking, gunshots rang out. Fei Lichao and Liangzi both ran back. After shooting the two monsters at the door, the two returned to the stairwell at the back door.

"Liangzi, are you alright?" Fei Lichao asked.

Liangzi waved his hand and said breathlessly, "Captain, don't worry, I'm fine."

I saw that Liangzi's face was covered in cold sweat; he was clearly terrified by what had just happened.

Fei Lichao looked at the large group of monsters gathered outside the back door and said, "Let's go upstairs!"

Back on the third floor, Pu Weichao plopped down on the sofa and said dejectedly, "We're doomed. We're stuck here."

Fei Lichao ignored his nonsense, glanced into the bedroom, and then shouted at us, "All of you, come here!"

Wu Shuang sat on the sofa, trembling with fear, unable to move at all.

Liangzi and I went into the bedroom, and Fei Lichao pointed out the window and said, "There's no other way, we can only go down from here. We've already lured the monsters in front to the back, so it should be safe for us to go out through this window now."

"Get out of the window? How? Jump out?" I was so scared that my mind couldn't process what I was saying.

Fei Lichao ignored me and took out a bundle of black rope from his backpack.

He tied one end of the rope to the bed board and then threw the rope out the window.

He looked at me and said, "Go and call the two outside in."

I went to the living room and said something, and Pu Weichao and Wu Shuang followed me to the bedroom.

Seeing the scene at the window, Pu Weichao understood what was going on and said with a wry smile, "Hey, can't we stay here for one night before setting off? Why are we in such a hurry?"

Fei Lichao stared at him and said, "You can stay here if you want, I don't have time to waste on you."

Pu Weichao was speechless for a moment. There was nothing he could do but follow Fei Lichao's arrangements, since Fei Lichao was the team leader.

Fei Lichao tested the rope's strength and said, "Liangzi and I will go down first, and then the three of you will come down one by one, understand?"

"I know." I nodded.

After saying that, Fei Lichao climbed out of the window and went down the rope.

We are on the third floor. Each floor is about three meters high, plus the extra half-staircase on the first floor, making the total height about twelve meters.

Not too tall, not too short.

After Fei Lichao went down, Liangzi followed him down.

Then Pu Weichao volunteered, saying, "I'll go first."

He climbed to the window, gripped the rope tightly with both hands, and slowly lowered himself down.

I glanced at Wu Shuang, who said, "You go first."

"Okay, then be careful later," I said.

Wu Shuang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and forced a smile.

After Pu Weichao landed, I climbed out of the window and pulled myself down.

I initially thought going down would be easy, but as I kept moving down, I had to keep putting pressure on my hands, otherwise I would lose my balance and fall.

Halfway through, my hand slipped and I almost let go of the rope.

Fortunately, I managed to step on the ground when I was almost out of strength.

I swung the rope and saw Wu Shuang climb out of the window.

Fei Lichao found a car downstairs and somehow managed to open the door. He was inside trying to start the car.

After Wu Shuang successfully came down from the third floor, Fei Lichao started the car and beckoned us to get in.

Liangzi, who was watching the monster's movements at the corner of the building, ran back the moment the car started. After getting in the car, Fei Lichao drove away from the neighborhood.

Everything went smoothly!

Apart from the previous incident, everything has been going smoothly so far.

After leaving the residential area, Fei Lichao took small roads, so there were basically no cars blocking the road. Even if there were, they were few and he could usually avoid them.

In the distance ahead, the setting sun was not dazzling.

Looking at the dilapidated world illuminated by the setting sun, I said, "Has everywhere become like this?"
