Countdown: ten minutes.
The sky was getting darker and darker. The clouds that had been there all day suddenly dissipated at this moment, as if someone had deliberately pushed them away.
Without the obstruction of thick clouds and fog, the moon hung brightly in the sky, and the blood-red moonlight sprinkled down, covering the entire Nanwu City.
Although everyone has been staying at home and not going out, there are still people who take a walk in the community garden to admire the moon. Perhaps they think the community is still very safe and no one has been exposed to the virus.
Moreover, this blood moon is really rare. Many people go to the balcony and garden to watch this rare blood moon out of curiosity.
Ruan Jiyan looked at the watch on his wrist as the seconds ticked by, his expression becoming increasingly uglier.
Police cars, ambulances and fire trucks kept passing by the road outside the community, and the news repeatedly emphasized that citizens should not go out and should have faith in the government's ability.
Countdown: five minutes.
Ruan Jiyan looked out from the balcony and saw that many shops near the community had closed down urgently and there were fewer pedestrians on the streets.
The community was also closed urgently, and the entire community owner group was in an uproar.
211: What exactly happened? Does the fact that this news report is repeatedly emphasized mean that the matter is really serious?
Building 2, 201: Stop talking so much. Let’s all just stay home and wait for the government’s decision.
Building 2 111: Why does the on-site video shown on the news look so much like a zombie virus?
101: What are you talking about? Have you read too many novels?
211: You young people are always obsessed with these unrealistic stories and are almost going crazy.
Ruan Jiyan frowned as he saw everyone in the owner group talking about the young resident of Room 111, Building 2.
Ruan Jiyan remembered the little girl. He had seen her often in the community before. Although they were not very familiar with each other, they would still talk a few words when they met.
Ruan Jiyan placed his fingers on the keyboard of his mobile phone, typed a message and then deleted it. In the end, he only said one sentence: Everyone please pay attention to safety and do not open the door at will.
Then I prepared to turn off my phone.
The next second, she received a friend verification.
It was the girl from Room 111, Building 2. Ruan Jiyan passed by quickly.
Countdown: one minute.
Fang Ming came out after washing the dishes. He sat on the sofa and saw the moon outside. He was a little surprised. He picked up his phone and walked to the balcony.
Ruan Jiyan walked into the living room first and closed the balcony door.
Fang Ming: ...
"Let's divide the work first." Ruan Jiyan said this with a serious expression as he sat on the sofa.
The two of them hadn't figured out what job she was talking about.
Then, outside, I heard a scream that shook the sky and a sharp roar that seemed to tear the darkness apart.
Here it comes!
Then, there were heart-wrenching screams and weeping cries.
It happened so quickly, from the outbreak at the Nanwu City Third People's Hospital, to now reaching the community in just one day.
Ruan Jiyan quickly ran to the balcony. By this time the moonlight had faded and dark clouds covered the sky again.
A tall, blood-stained man appeared outside the security booth at the entrance of the community and limped into the community.
The security guard was stunned at first, then came out to negotiate with him, opened the door of the security room, and as soon as he walked out, the man ran over and knocked him down.
The next moment, the man lay on the security guard with his head down and bit something. The security guard's terrible voice echoed throughout the entire community.
There were a few people walking in the community garden behind them. After hearing the sound, they wanted to go over to check. The man instantly got up from the security guard, glanced at the few people not far away, and quickly ran towards their location.
Although his posture was twisted and his steps were staggering, he was still walking very fast, like a vicious wolf seeing meat and pouncing on it quickly.
The security guard lying outside the security booth was covered in blood, and a distorted expression could be vaguely seen on his face.
Blood was flowing from his neck. With such an injury, even if the person didn't die, he would probably pass out. However, the security guard slowly began to twitch. Then his lower legs stood up first, then his lower body, and then he crawled up from the ground with his upper body.
Although he crawled up, his posture was extremely strange. The security guard's front was facing up, and he turned over with his back facing the ground, crawling on all fours, and crawling quickly like a four-legged animal.
The two monsters quickly rushed towards the crowd, biting and tearing at anyone and any animal they saw. Soon, the downstairs of the community building became a "slaughterhouse".
The residents in the building had no time to react and were about to call the police when they were frightened by the scene in front of them.
The residents on the first floor in particular were pinned to the ground and bitten madly by a group of monsters before they could even hide at home.
He howled and cried heartbreakingly all night long.
Ruan Jiyan quickly ran to the door, fastened the several specially installed locks on the door, and pushed the single sofa to the door to block it.
Only then did Fang Ming and Chen Xi realize how serious the matter was.
The word of zombies spread from one person to ten, and then to a hundred. Soon, people reacted and tried their best to keep the zombies out.
Looking down at the first floor from above, all that were wandering about were zombies.
During this period of time, everyone began to accept the reality, and the owner group was bombarded with news.
105: @Building 2, 111, do you know anything about what you said before?
Building 2, Room 201: I need help, does anyone have any extra food? I’m willing to pay a high price for it!
105: @Building 211, just tell me what you know. Now you are still hiding it. How can you be so selfish?
The owner of 105 kept tagging the little girl who lived in 111, building 2, with a tone full of blame.
At that time, 111 in Building 2 kindly reminded her, and everyone was scolding her for being crazy. Now they blame her for not sharing the news with everyone. Ruan Jiyan looked at the messages on her mobile phone, as if she saw that person's face.
She had just talked a lot with the girl living in Room 111, Building 2. After the girl confirmed with her that this was the zombie virus, she listened to her advice and never spoke in the owner group again.
Ruan Jiyan told her not to trust others easily, nor to lend a helping hand to others easily. When necessary, she should still assume the greatest malice towards others, for her own absolute safety.
Sure enough, after the two of them finished chatting, the little girl left the group without saying another word. From Ruan Jiyan's perspective, the curtains in her room were drawn tightly and the lights were not on.
The girl is also a homebody, and her working hours are from afternoon to evening, so for convenience, she has stocked up a lot of food at home. Ruan Jiyan told her that he would send her food when he had the chance, but she refused, saying that the food at home could last for several months.
This is better.
She walked back to the living room from the balcony and saw two people with solemn expressions. The news on TV was noisy, but it seemed that it did not penetrate their ears.
Ruan Jiyan picked up the remote control from the coffee table and turned off the TV, and the noisy sound disappeared immediately.
Chen Xi looked up at her, tears welling up in her eyes: "Sister Ruan, are the zombies really here?"
There is no point in dwelling on this issue now, as the facts are right in front of us. However, what Chen Xi wants to ask more is whether they can survive?
In fact, what she should do is to firmly believe in the government and the country. But in the face of such a horrific human disaster, no matter who it is, they will doubt it. After all, such situations have only been seen in novels and movies.
"..." Ruan Ji Yan didn't know what to say, he just watched her wipe away her tears silently.
Fang Ming put the kitten back into the nest and walked back to the sofa. Ruan Jiyan found a pen and paper, quickly wrote something on the paper, and then picked it up and handed it to the two of them.
The three of them divided the duty hours. Chen Xi was on duty from 7pm to 11pm, Fang Ming took over from 11pm to 3am, and finally Ruan Jiyan was on duty from 3am to 7am.
This way, when one person is on duty, the other two can relax a little and have a rest, which is also good.
It is now around ten o'clock in the evening. Chen Xi has calmed down and sat on the sofa, looking ready.
Ruan Jiyan patted her and said, "Don't worry."
Then Ruan Jiyan walked into the second bedroom and took out a baseball bat and two long clotheslines.
"Is this for self-defense?" Chen Xi asked.
Ruan Jiyan nodded.
She gave the baseball bat to Fang Ming, then went to the cupboard and took out two bottles of super glue and a roll of large tape, and also took out six Swiss Army knives and four utility knives that she had bought specially.
Fang Ming was a little stronger than Chen Xi and the others, so he got a baseball bat while the two ladies got a modified clothesline.
Ruan Jiyan randomly pulled out an unused shirt and cut it into strips with scissors. Then he applied glue on the strips and wrapped them around the clothesline, taping them again after each wrapping. He also shook them in his hand to ensure that the strips would not fall off.
Then Ruan Jiyan took off the blades of his Swiss Army knife and utility knife and wrapped them around the clothesline.
What was originally an ordinary clothes-drying pole turned into a sharp weapon with blades all over it. The lightweight clothes-drying pole now became a weapon because it was covered with glue and wrapped with cloth strips.
Ruan Jiyan handed the clothesline to Chen Xi and reminded her, "If anyone is against you, take this and smash it on his head."
She held Chen Xi's hand tightly. Chen Xi looked at her, but her light words made Chen Xi feel a chill.
"good."
Ruan Jiyan did not specifically mention zombies here, because in the face of disaster, it is not only the zombies that are scary, but also not necessarily humans.
As long as there are any factors that are unfavorable to oneself, everyone should consider themselves first, without exception.
Ruan Jiyan didn't speak again in the owner group, but someone mentioned her at this time, and the group chat messages and private messages kept ringing.
She opened her phone and saw that they had previously been blaming the girl in Room 111, Building 2 for not telling them in advance, but now they were blaming her too.
The reason was that Ruan Jiyan purchased a large amount of supplies a few days ago, which attracted people's attention. They all asked her if she had known that such a day would come and why she was unwilling to tell everyone.
Many people also asked her for supplies and sent her private messages to scold her for being selfish.
There was also a black avatar with no nickname or comments. He only said one sentence: "You will be punished."
Where did this person come from? Ruan Jiyan didn't even remember adding such a person as a friend.
The next second, he sent another message: "I know you are watching, and I am watching you too."
