Chapter 60 Before Leaving
"What do we do now? Should we drive away?"
After the car stopped, the zombies crawling outside the car began to bang on the windows even harder. The people in the car looked at the situation outside in panic and fear, shivering and hugging each other, with screams coming from time to time.
Seeing the ugly zombies stuck to the windows, no one dared to get out of the car. Someone tried to drive the zombies out of the car, but in the panic, they accidentally hit the railings and stone pillars beside them, and the whole car was dented.
The powerful collision caused various degrees of injuries to everyone in the car. The person in the driver's seat had just recovered from the huge impact and was about to check on his family in the back seat when the shattered glass on the passenger side shattered under the impact of the zombie, and a grayish-blue arm stretched out...
The piercing screams resounded through the sky...
Hearing this sound, everyone nearby shuddered.
Those who had just subconsciously stopped rushing to get on the bus because of the loud noise of the vehicle collision outside also reacted again and became even more panicked.
They pushed forward even harder than before, but in the panic, not many more people managed to get on the bus than before.
The screams outside hadn't stopped yet, but Zheng Cheng heard the sound of a chair falling to the ground at the door. Looking back, he saw zombies pushing a row of chairs and entering from outside.
He didn't have time to care about the crowd still crowded together. After telling his brother Zheng Gong to get on the car first, he rushed out again with the iron rod in his hand.
Because there were people outside attracting attention, not many zombies entered the waiting room. He knocked down the one in front of him and was about to turn around to deal with another one, but he saw that the other zombie next to him had already fallen down.
Zheng Gong was standing behind him with a weapon.
Zheng Cheng frowned, dissatisfied with Zheng Gong's following. "Didn't I tell you to get in the car first?"
"You can get in the car anytime, but I can't leave you alone." Zheng Gong said, raising his hand to knock down the zombie rushing towards him. "Don't worry, I've talked to Dad, and he also asked me to come find you. He'll be looking after you in the car, so nothing serious will happen."
As more and more zombies fell, the smell of blood in the waiting room became stronger and stronger, and more and more zombies came in from outside. Zheng Cheng had no time to ask anything and once again threw himself into the fight with the zombies.
The people in the car outside also saw them fighting with the zombies. Some of them saw that the car windows would be broken by the zombies sooner or later, so they hardened their hearts, picked up weapons from the car, opened the door and rushed out.
Some people still didn't have the courage to get out of the car. Seeing Zheng Cheng and Zheng Gong killing the zombies skillfully, they asked for help through the car window.
But not to mention that Zheng Cheng and Zheng Gong have no time to take care of other things now, even if they can, they are not willing to take the risk.
If someone doesn't even dare to risk his life to save himself, even if you help him now, he may have to pay you back for his life in the future.
Unlike the situation in the waiting room, although the situation outside had changed a little because some people got off the bus, the people who got off the bus did not gain the upper hand in the fight with the zombies.
Fear bound people's hands and feet, preventing them from concentrating on fighting the enemy.
People were knocked down by the zombies one after another, and screams and wails rang out continuously, making the remaining people more and more panicked.
On the platform, because the two Zheng brothers stopped the zombies in the waiting room, leaving enough time for the rest of the people, the crowded crowd finally squeezed into the train.
Unlike those who were relieved to finally get on the bus, the Zheng family members still did not show any joy on their faces.
Everyone outside came up, but their two sons were still outside.
Mother Zheng shook her husband's arm and said, "They're already in the car, why haven't Dacheng and Xiaogong returned yet?"
She looked outside worriedly, unable to help but blame her husband. "It's all your fault. You sent the kids to the army. Even after Dacheng's been discharged, he can't forget the lessons he learned in the army. He always thinks of self-sacrifice and putting others before himself. Now that he's out of uniform, why bother with so much? Just get in the car!"
Dad Zheng was also worried about his two sons, his necks stretched out like giraffes. "Look at what you said, what's wrong with children being responsible?"
Zheng's father, who had also served in the military for several years, retorted, "A country is a family, and a country is made up of millions of families. If everyone were like you, would your idea still work? Don't those young men in our city who are doing rescue work in the southeast have their parents and families to worry about?"
"You should be thankful that your child is still here. If they were stricter, they would have recalled all the retired soldiers after such a serious incident!"
Zheng's mother knew that she had spoken out of turn, but she was unwilling to give in.
"Responsibility, responsibility, is that all you know about responsibility? My son drove the whole way, then got out to stop the zombies, and now he's guarding the door for everyone. But look at these people, who even remembers that they didn't get in the car? Even you, their father, only said it was their duty."
As Zheng's mother spoke, her eyes became moist.
"But I feel bad for the child I gave birth to. Others may not remember me, but I do. You only say Dacheng is responsible, but Xiaohua and the child are also his responsibilities! How can you think of the big family if you don't care about your own? Xiaohua just gave birth less than two months ago. If something happens to them, how will our family, the elderly, the weak, the women and the children, survive?"
"Look at you! Hey!"
Seeing his wife on the verge of tears and his daughter-in-law hanging her head, Father Zheng hurriedly explained, "Of course I feel sorry for Dacheng and Xiaogong, but the situation is critical. If no one stops the zombies, they will eventually run to the platform. I heard that this train doesn't leave until 1 p.m. If the zombies break through the defenses and get on the train, that would be really dangerous!"
"They can't just stand there and stop us, can they? We're all on this bus, so every family has to contribute! Otherwise, our whole family will die here together. I want my two sons back!"
As everyone got into the carriage and settled down, the car gradually became quiet.
Mother Zheng's voice was quite loud and many people heard it.
Some people were thick-skinned and would just sit there and do nothing even if they heard it, but some were thin-skinned and silently picked up their weapons and went out to help.
Although the latter's family was worried, they also knew that this was what they should do and could not stop it, so they all directed their attacks at those families who did not send people out.
These families wanted to stay put and not go out, but they could not resist public opinion and finally sent people out.
…
In the front carriage, the Jiang family and their entourage were keeping a close eye on the situation outside.
They heard everything from the moment Zheng Gong escorted his family onto the train to the first loud explosion outside the train station.
They were also very anxious at the time, fearing that zombies would suddenly rush in. Especially when they saw that everyone was scrambling to get on the bus, which resulted in the speed of getting on the bus being abnormally slow, they wanted to jump out and maintain order...
But reason stopped them. Fortunately, someone took up the responsibility in time and stopped the zombies at the entrance. After everyone got on the car, the Jiang family members relaxed a little.
But the situation remains grim.
Thinking that zombies might rush in at any time, Jiang Dong hesitated and asked, "What should we do now? Should we drive away?"
