Chapter 25 Can it be sold for a lot of money?

An Ran’s hands were shaking, and her body was shaking like a sieve. She barely supported herself and turned over. One foot went down the bed, and then the other foot went down the bed. Then she turned over and fell to the ground.

She was so scared! But what was the use of being scared?

While the zombies gathered on the other side, An Ran crawled on all fours to the door. Then he felt a pain in his knee as if he had pressed on a shiny diamond. The pain was so severe that he wanted to curse.

She picked up the diamond, which was as big as a pomegranate seed, took a look at it and put it in her pocket. Then she crawled to the door and walked out of the room. Just as she was about to stand up, a foot stepped on the back of An Ran's hand again.

She was in excruciating pain, but dared not scream. She raised her head and watched a newly evolved zombie walk through her hand. She sat up safely, looked at the broken skin on her five fingers, shook them off, and slowly stood up with her back against the wall.

The third floor is the obstetrics and gynecology department. Most of the people here are pregnant women or family members accompanying pregnant women on maternity leave, so there are more people than on the fourth and fifth floors. However, because the environment of this hospital is relatively spacious, the obstetrics and gynecology department does not seem crowded. An Ran observed along the wall and saw that in this obstetrics and gynecology department, the veins on many people's faces were almost completely exposed.

Now that it has been fully exposed, does it mean that it has successfully evolved and can eat humans? Then does it mean that those that have not been fully exposed are still evolving?

She moved her body gently for about twenty minutes, and finally reached the emergency staircase. She pushed open the emergency door and slipped in.

With the door's clang, An Ran just breathed a sigh of relief. But before she felt safe, she turned around and saw a fully evolved zombie standing on the stairs. The veins on its forehead were fully exposed, and it was baring its fangs at her.

"What the hell?"

An Ran glanced at the male zombie and found a lot of cigarette butts on the ground. This must be a smoker who accompanied his wife to the prenatal checkup and hid in the safe staircase to smoke because he was addicted to cigarettes! The smoker zombie pounced on An Ran and pressed him against the door, opening his mouth to bite. An Ran was anxious and used the same trick again. He took out a fruit knife, pulled it out of the sheath, and stabbed it directly into the eyes of the smoker zombie and stirred it. The disgusting sound was like stirring some jam. Then An Ran scratched it directly, and the smoker zombie fell limp on An Ran and didn't move.

Behind the security door, there was the sound of zombies scratching at the door. An Ran didn't have time to think about it. She simply pushed away the zombie that was pressing on her and hurried up the stairs.

After only two steps, the voice-controlled light in the safety passage went out. An Ran turned around and looked at the zombie's head. A mass of paste-like brain matter flowed out from the zombie's stabbed eye sockets. The brain matter in the zombie's brain seemed to be thinner than that of a human's, just like tofu pudding, and a sparkling diamond also flowed out along with the tofu pudding-like brain matter.

What is it? Can it be sold for a lot of money?

An Ran didn't know what was going on in her mind. She went downstairs and came back, squatting on the ground. She took a fruit knife and poked the diamond in the brain. It was exactly the same as the one she picked up. It was the size of a pomegranate seed, with irregular cut surfaces, and it was shiny and very beautiful.
