Chapter 98 Questioning
Around twelve o'clock in the morning, everyone had fallen into a deep sleep.
There was not a single light in the entire welfare home. Although it was not pitch dark, one could only see some shadows with the bright moonlight from outside.
The door of the room where Yu Yao and others were was opened silently in the silent night.
Under the moonlight, a long shadow slanted into the room and slowly moved towards Chen Wanjun.
A few minutes later, a black figure quietly carried Chen Wanjun out of the room and ran quickly in one direction.
......
The basement of the welfare home.
In the dim and cool basement, a dozen shriveled, weak, and faceless zombies gathered in a corner of the hall.
He raised his head and looked quietly in one direction without making a sound.
The figure threw Chen Wanjun into the middle of the zombies and coaxed her in a low voice: "Eat, eat quickly, you won't be weak anymore after eating people!"
But the only response he got was infinite silence.
The figure clenched his fists, turned around and quickly left the basement.
The moonlight shone on his face, revealing Saihu's childish face.
After a while, he returned to the room of Yu Yao and the other two.
But when I walked to Yu Yao's bed, I found that there was no one on the bed.
Saihu thought he had found the wrong bed and quickly went to check other beds.
I found that there was no one in the whole room!
He looked panicked and hurried to check the other two rooms.
Also empty.
He thought to himself, "Oh no!" and after a moment's thought, he hurried towards the basement.
But before he arrived, he heard terrible roars coming from the direction of the basement.
His face turned pale and he quickened his pace and rushed over.
The roar of the zombies alarmed almost everyone in the welfare home.
Chang An, who was still writing something at the table, suddenly jumped up.
He looked towards the basement, his eyes filled with fear.
When Saihu hurried to the basement, he saw more than a dozen people who came to stay overnight standing neatly in the basement.
The zombies that were originally quiet in the corner suddenly became extremely manic and aggressive.
At this moment, he was trapped in a huge metal cage.
"What did you do!" Saihu roared, his face full of anger.
When Yu Yao and others looked back, Chang An, Zhou Shanhai and others had also arrived one after another.
When Chang An saw this scene as soon as he came down, his eyes went dark.
"What, what's going on!"
Zhou Shanhai yelled angrily, "What did you do? We kindly took you in for the night, how could you do this to us!"
Qin Zhao curled the corner of his mouth and sneered.
"Good intentions?"
As he spoke, he pointed at Chen Wanjun, who was dirty, had messy hair, had a stained fair face, and was shivering with her arms folded.
The tone was sarcastic.
"Is this what you call kindness? Throwing people to feed the zombies?"
Qin Zhao’s words stunned Chang An.
"How, how could it be..."
As she spoke, she turned around and began to look around, "Where's Liang Ning? Didn't he get the water back?"
Liang Ning?
Poor Liang Ning is still unconscious in the small dark room.
As if he had thought of something, Chang An suddenly looked at Yu Mingce.
"Yu Mingce! It's you! You planned all this, right?"
After hearing Chang An’s words, everyone turned around silently!
Yu Mingce, who was standing at the back, was leaning against the wall with a sullen face. It was unclear whether he was thinking about a strategy or accepting the reality.
"It's me. Xiaoyun is too weak. She must eat."
The corners of Chang An's lips trembled slightly and his eyes were red.
"Xiao Ce, don't be silly, Xiao Yun is already a zombie."
Yu Mingce smiled with a crooked mouth.
"You sound very righteous. You clearly know that they are zombies, not humans, so why do you keep them here and refuse to kill them?"
Chang An clenched his fists, "I can't bear to kill them...but I can't accept using ordinary people's lives in exchange for their lives!"
Yu Mingce's expression suddenly changed.
"Why should we be so sorry? They are just a bunch of strangers passing by. Even if they leave us tomorrow, they may die in another corner! It is better to let them make contributions to Xiaoyun! And leave some supplies for us!"
As he spoke, he pointed to a female zombie in an iron cage who was wearing a tattered red dress and had almost lost all her long hair.
"And those people in the cages are our colleagues, friends, and the children you care about the most. Especially Xiaoyun, she is your own daughter! Can you really watch them getting weaker day by day, and finally attack and devour each other?"
Chang An's body slowly began to tremble as he spoke.
She stared at Yu Mingce, who had a ferocious look on his face, and asked with difficulty, "You used this rhetoric to seduce Saihu, didn't you?"
The reason why Chang An could react so quickly to what Yu Mingce did was because Saihu had been acting very strange recently. He often talked about catching some people and bringing them back to feed Sister Xiaoyun.
Chang An lectured him many times about this and even punished him by making him face the wall and spanking his palms.
But after it was over, he would still discuss it secretly with other children.
Chang An understands Saihu's character. He is impulsive and easily influenced by others, but he is not a bad person. He even often regards himself as the little guardian angel of the welfare home, always thinking about protecting everyone.
He suddenly came up with such a bold idea, someone must have instilled something in him!
Among the people Chang An knows, there is only one person who has the best relationship with Saihu and cares about Xiaoyun the most, and that is Yu Mingce.
......
When Saihu heard Chang An say this, he comforted him.
"No, it's not Brother Xiaoce's fault. I volunteered."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shanhai was so angry that he slapped him hard on the back.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know what you are doing?"
Saihu was slapped, but instead of giving in, he stiffened his neck and looked even more stubborn and unyielding.
"Of course I know! They drive such a nice car, they don't need us to provide food, and they even have food to feed the cats! They must have plenty of supplies! Once we feed them to the zombies, not only will Sister Xiaoyun and the others no longer become weak, but we can also get those supplies! My brothers and sisters won't have to go hungry anymore!"
Xunzi said: Man’s nature is evil at birth.
It’s not because they are evil by nature, but because they simply don’t know that what they do is evil!
