"fine."
Bai Xizhu smiled politely at Zhao Hai.
This ex-boyfriend was relatively polite, but he was a bit too ruthless when he broke up with me.
They broke up just like that.
He left only one sentence and then ignored everyone else.
Bai Xizhu learned a little bit about it indirectly through Zhang Yiming.
I heard that he had a girlfriend, which is why he broke up with me so decisively.
Sadness is inevitable, but it only lasts for a while.
The past is the past, and Bai Xizhu didn't have any particular emotions when she saw her ex.
Anyway, she already has a boyfriend.
And this boyfriend of mine is more handsome than any of my previous ones!
"If you're doing well, that's good."
Zhao Hai pushed up his glasses and revealed a gentle smile.
What's past is past, and no matter how much you regret it, you can't go back.
So one can only bury the bitterness of the past in one's heart, like aged wine, to be taken out from time to time to savor and reminisce about the past youth.
That's good.
"How did you get surrounded by zombies?"
Bai Xizhu glanced curiously at the little cuties still whimpering and crawling behind her.
Logically speaking, apart from Grandpa Wang, no one else would have the ability to attract so many zombies at once.
"well!"
Zhao Hai sighed, glanced back at the people in the supermarket, and said nothing.
But the expression on his face was too depressed.
Zhao Hai didn't say anything, but someone inside the supermarket spoke up.
"It's all because someone wanted to eat chocolate. He ate all the chocolate in the supermarket. Even though there wasn't any left, he still insisted on having more. He cried when he wasn't given any, which attracted all the zombies around!"
A woman's voice complained from inside the supermarket.
They were survivors from the surrounding area, ordinary people without any special abilities. Unable to cross the zombie-infested S City to reach the Fire Phoenix Safe Base, they could only eke out a living in this town.
It's all tears when I talk about it.
The apocalypse has been going on for several months, and the world is not moving in a better direction; in fact, it is getting worse.
Various mutated animals and zombies pose a serious threat to the safety of ordinary people.
These dozen or so ordinary people had only managed to form a small but manageable force, barely enough to go out together to find supplies.
However, in a group of people, there will always be one bad apple.
There was a woman named Wang Jing who, with her son, would hide at the very back when killing zombies, but would run to the very front when eating.
The dozen or so survivors finally found a supermarket that was temporarily safe and had supplies, thanks to a police officer. However, the little child kept causing trouble, crying and demanding chocolate.
Even after he had been given all the chocolates, he still wouldn't give up.
The cries attracted hundreds of zombies, and their leader, a young police officer, died at the supermarket entrance.
"What's wrong with a little chocolate for a child? Who knows if you're hiding any?"
A middle-aged woman's voice rang out.
"Mom, I want some chocolate!"
A chubby little boy pouted, his face full of grievance.
She seemed ready to cry at any moment.
Bai Xizhu glanced at the little boy inside and shook her head slightly.
It's a miracle they survived, especially since they were just an ordinary group with two unruly people in tow.
Zhao Hai rubbed his temples; he was already planning to go to the safe base.
The zombies outside are getting stronger and stronger. Even if ordinary people band together, they are no match for those mutated animals and zombies.
The sound of chains rang out; inside the glass door, Zhao Hai was pulling on the chain that was locking the door.
"Hey! Why are you opening the door?!"
Wang Jing stared in horror at the iron chains. Outside, hundreds of zombies were still crawling on the ground, seemingly ready to turn and pounce at any moment.
As Zhao Hai opened the door, he said in a deep voice, "I will be going to the Fire Phoenix Security Base tomorrow. If any of you want to go, we can go together. If not, I will go alone."
Zhao Hai could tell that Bai Xizhu was definitely not an ordinary superhuman. An ordinary superhuman would not be so calm in the face of hundreds of zombies.
The gap is widening.
He is just an ordinary person now. What he can do is not to kill indiscriminately or show off his abilities, but to survive.
The supermarket was quiet; people looked at each other, speechless.
The supplies in the supermarket can last for a while longer.
Everyone is still waiting with hope.
What if there's a rescue?
Zhao Hai glanced back at the crowd, his gaze landing on the chubby little boy, before decisively walking out of the supermarket.
With this little boy around, one day, everyone will die because of him.
If a child is spoiled, in a civilized society, he might at most be considered a spendthrift.
But in the apocalypse, it is a death warrant.
To be honest, all of them were kind-hearted and soft-hearted.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have tolerated them for so long.
As Zhao Hai stepped out of the supermarket, the sound of chains rang out again.
A middle-aged woman swiftly and efficiently relocked the chains.
Behind her, more than a dozen pairs of eyes were watching, but no one stopped her.
Zhao Hai shook his head and smiled at Bai Xizhu.
Please excuse my poor attempt to make a fool of myself.
Bai Xizhu was unfazed; such scenes were common. She had lived in the apocalypse for three years and had seen all sorts of things.
"Xiao Zhu, is he... your boyfriend?"
Zhao Hai looked at the man closest to Bai Xizhu.
The man exuded a chilling aura, and his eyes seemed to pierce right through you.
