Chapter 63: The Little Doomsday Writer (Yu Hui) 10 Variables
Seeing that the girl in his arms was as nervous as a rabbit with its ears erected, Zhao Zemu was afraid that she had imagined herself to be some kind of horrible existence. Finally, he was kind enough to let her go and just chuckled.
Song Qingqing felt Zhao Zemu's jaw resting on her shoulder. His low voice, laced with an ambiguous smile, reached her ears. "With such little guts, you still want to turn into a zombie and bite me?"
His thumb sank into the girl's red lips, which were slightly opened due to nervousness, and his rough fingertips gently stroked her snow-white teeth.
The fingertips clearly felt the soft and smooth touch of her lips. The man's Adam's apple slid up and down, and his voice was a little hoarse when he spoke again.
"Are you afraid of me like this?"
You little heartless thing, you just fed me and now you want to ignore me in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Zemu lowered his eyes slightly and pulled out his fingers.
Sensitive to his subtle, almost imperceptible change in emotion, Song Qingqing quickly recovered and grasped his wrist, tilting her head to look at him curiously, "Is that your special ability?"
Looking at her, the pair of moist and bright almond-shaped eyes were filled with curiosity and trust in her. She easily grasped the man's strange competitive spirit and gave him full emotional value.
Zhao Zemu nodded, put away the food that Song Qingqing had not eaten on the table in front of her, then took out a piece of chocolate and placed it in the girl's hand, just like a magician performing magic for the audience.
Zhao Zemu paused for a moment upon realizing this, feeling a bit awkward. Spatial abilities were extremely useful in the apocalypse. In the early days of the apocalypse, the presence of a single spatial ability user could mean the fate of all survivors in a base. But now, he was using them to perform for the girl before him.
However, this subtle and indescribable feeling disappeared completely when he saw the surprised reaction on the girl's face.
Zhao Zemu pinched her face and said, "This is a spatial ability."
Song Qingqing's eyes lit up, and she skillfully and naturally handed the backpack she had been carrying to Zhao Zemu. "Then can you put this away?"
"What did you pack?" Zhao Zemu glanced at the bulging bag in front of him, unzipped it and took a quick look, then fell silent.
It was filled with equipment taken from the archery club's activity room, including three or four sets of red and white archery sportswear, and the white cotton skirt she was wearing when she first met Zhao Zemu.
It was completely clean. No wonder he felt that the corner of the activity room was a lot "cleaner and tidier" when he left.
Like a hamster that only wants to hoard any good thing it sees, Zhao Zemu's eyes fell on the pocket of Song Qingqing's combat uniform. The chocolate he had just given her had been hidden in a secret pocket.
There was a hint of smile in Zhao Zemu's dark and calm eyes.
It was still dark at dawn, and the main road of the academy was filled with zombies wandering aimlessly.
Li Yang left angrily and smashed the zombie's head into pieces with a stick, cursing, "Fuck you, a bunch of blind people, all followers of that dead man Lin Kai, a bunch of fence-sitters..."
As he was cursing, Li Yang laughed sinisterly again.
This group of ungrateful people couldn't get away with kicking him out. They thought the library was safe, right? Before leaving, he kicked open the iron door of the safety passage. As for whether he closed it or not, he didn't remember.
Li Yang turned the car keys in his hand, whistled, and looked at the school bus parked on the side of the road not far away. It was the bus they drove back to school after the competition. The car keys were originally taken from the driver who had turned into a zombie by another person for safekeeping, but since that person was a good brother to him, he secretly gave the car keys to him as soon as their eyes met.
He also asked me to wait for him when I evacuated, and he would take that bitch Chen Tong with him. She actually dared to provoke me like that in front of a group of people.
The early zombies were no longer a challenge to Li Yang, who had awakened his power ability. He could kill them all with just an iron stick. Li Yang whistled briskly and walked to the door of the school shuttle bus.
He took out his key and inserted it into the car door, humming a half-melody, looking relaxed and happy.
“Huh…”
Suddenly, an inhuman sound came from behind him, and a breath mixed with blood and stench sprayed on Li Yang's back.
Li Yang's movement of turning the car key suddenly froze, and a sense of horror as he was silently surrounded by a sticky and wet crisis slowly climbed up his spine, from his tailbone all the way up.
Li Yang tightened his grip on the iron rod, turned around and prepared to strike a hard blow to the blind zombie behind him, but he saw nothing.
A drop of blood suddenly fell on Li Yang's head, even with human body temperature. He slowly raised his head.
Li Yang screamed in horror when he saw the true appearance of the thing.
It turned out that what appeared in front of him could no longer be called a zombie. This monster did not even look like a human. Its body was covered with muscles that looked like skin that had been peeled off and eaten. It was bloody and was lying on the top of the school bus. It seemed that it had been waiting for the mutant in front of it for a long time.
Seeing that his prey had discovered him, the Speedster let out a low growl and pounced on it with his mouth wide open, revealing his sharp blood-red teeth.
The instinct of survival made Li Yang burst out with powerful strength, trying to kill the horrible monster in front of him with a stick, but it was useless because it was extremely fast.
The sharp teeth were firmly embedded in Li Yang's head, and he let out a horrifying scream.
The cry was so tragic that it broke the dead silence of the dawn sky.
Song Qingqing, who was sitting by the window in the conference room, heard everything clearly. She stood up suddenly and tried to see what was happening outside the window, but the library building was surrounded by ancient ginkgo trees. She could only see the vague shadows of the trees and could not see the outside scene at all.
Song Qingqing turned her head and stopped stroking the mimosa with her hand. She pursed her lips and looked at Zhao Zemu, whose expression had also become stern and cold.
The scream sounded familiar, very much like the voice Song Qingqing had just heard...that of Li Yang.
Li Yang is a power-type mutant, so how could he be injured by the zombies that are slow in the initial stage? Then what kind of monster could make him scream so miserably?
Obviously, Zhao Zemu had also thought of this. He took Song Qingqing's hand, his handsome face tense, "Looks like we have to evacuate early. Go notify your classmates and leave immediately."
The two of them walked away in a hurry and did not notice that after they left, the mimosa by the windowsill, which had been dried up by the sun and was about to wither, slowly moved and seemed to close its leaves shyly.
Lin Kai in the reading room opened his eyes instantly when the scream was heard. There was no sleepiness in his clear black eyes. It seemed that he had not fallen asleep at all and was always alert to the outside environment.
Tang Mingpo, who was on night watch, also looked unhappy. He whispered, "Brother Kai, it sounds like Li Yang's cry."
"Yeah, I heard it." Lin Kai stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, and put the polished arrow into the quiver.
Lin Kai glanced at the classmates sitting around with frightened expressions, lowered his eyebrows slightly, concealed the thoughts in his eyes, and whispered something to Tang Mingpo.
"Tell the captain of that combat team that we should probably evacuate soon."
Although the two teams have different captains, they made the same decision in response to the current situation.
Lin Kai had just informed his classmates to retreat immediately when his cell phone, which he had kept in the pocket of his archery jacket, suddenly vibrated. He walked to the corner and opened the screen. When he saw the message, he looked up at Tang Mingpo who had followed him, with a complicated expression.
"The coach and the few surviving students are still in the gym. There happened to be several classes taking physical education classes in the main playground next to the gym. The gym was surrounded by zombies, and they couldn't get out."
When the doomsday chaos just started, their team unfortunately got separated. Originally, the coach was leading the team, but the screams for help from survivors kept coming from the gym. The coach, who usually looked serious and strong, resolutely handed over the leadership to him and ran towards the gym.
Lin Kai still remembers that when the change first happened, it was the coach who reacted the fastest and pulled him away from a classmate who was about to turn into a zombie.
In just a moment, Lin Kai made a decision. "I'll go to the gym to provide support. You stay here and deal with the situation."
He paused and continued, "If the situation changes and I'm not back in more than fifteen minutes, take everyone and retreat. Don't worry about me."
After he finished speaking, Lin Kai neatly packed up his equipment and sportswear, opened a window in the corner of the reading room, squatted on the windowsill, jumped lightly, and landed steadily on the branch of a ginkgo tree outside the window.
The leaves shook, but did not alarm the zombies wandering under the tree.
Li Yang felt a sharp tearing pain in his throat and scalp. He struggled like a dying animal, and his kicking feet left traces on the soil of the flower bed. His hands tightly grasped the speedster's head, trying to pull the monster away from his fatal area.
Li Yang's eyes were bloodshot. He had finally become a superpower in the apocalypse, how could he die in the mouth of this monster? A gloomy and cruel look flashed across his face, and his five fingers stabbed into its head fiercely. He didn't know what he pulled out, but the Speed Runner twitched and let out a sharp cry.
Li Yang stood up unsteadily and covered his neck artery where blood was constantly gushing out. His cloudy eyes were sometimes covered by a dead gray-white color, and sometimes returned to normal, looking no different from a human.
When his body finally stabilized, Li Yang touched his neck, which was no longer bleeding. The flesh that had been turned over had healed strangely. He clenched his fists and clearly felt the changes in his body. He had... turned into a monster like he had just been, no longer a human being.
He raised his head, one of his eyes was a cloudy grayish-white, his gloomy gaze fell on the figure in the distance that was flying through the branches of the trees like a sharp arrow. In the gray dawn sunlight, Lin Kai's handsome profile looked particularly superior. In every competition, he was always the most dazzling one. Standing on the podium holding the championship medal, Li Yang suddenly pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled.
It seems that Lin Kai is going to the gym where his younger classmates usually train.
