“How is that possible…” Niu Lei’s rationality told him that no one could do it. The subway station was teeming with zombies, too many to count. How could one person possibly kill them all?
The problem is that, apart from the other survivors in the subway station, Zhang Lin is the only other person in the subway station.
Uh... and there are three women who just climbed out of the tracks.
"Brother Niu, what are you looking at? Have you found the rescue team yet?" The freckled girl ran over, in high spirits. "All the zombies are really dead! We're safe!"
Niu Lei pointed at Zhang Lin, "In the subway station, besides us, he's the only one."
"Where did he come from?" The freckled girl paused for a moment, then suddenly looked at Niu Lei, "Brother Niu, you mean... he cleared out the zombies?"
Niu Lei muttered, "I don't believe it either, but there really is no one else in the subway station."
The others also arrived at this time.
Niu Lei shared his guess with them.
Everyone was in disbelief.
It wasn't until Zhang Lin saw them and walked over with several women that he asked, "Are you survivors from the subway station?"
"Yes! We're subway station employees, and we've been trapped in the duty room for several days..." Niu Lei replied, then hesitated for a moment and asked, "Um...did you clear out all the zombies in the subway station?"
"Yes, I'm going to pass through here and clear things out while I'm at it. You won't be stuck here anymore," Zhang Lin nodded and said calmly.
really!
Although he had already guessed, Niu Lei was still shocked when he received Zhang Lin's answer. He really couldn't imagine how one person could clear out so many zombies. He saw that Zhang Lin only had a pistol on his waist, and he asked himself honestly, he definitely couldn't have done this even with a pistol!
"Thank God!" The disheveled middle-aged woman breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, crying, "We're finally saved!"
"There are zombies outside, so don't let your guard down," Zhang Lin told Niu Lei and the others before leading the An sisters and Ji Yuetong out of the subway station.
Niu Lei suddenly felt lost. When he was trapped in the duty room, all he wanted was to get out, but now that he was out, he didn't know where to go.
Although they've been hiding in the duty room for the past few days, they were still able to get news from the outside world when the internet was first available.
The whole world has been overrun by zombies.
Where can we go if we go out?
"Hey, big brother, can we come with you?" Niu Lei called out to Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin said without turning his head, "No!"
This was the best Zhang Lin could do to help them; he didn't want to burden them with more problems.
Outside the subway station is a crossroads surrounded by tall residential buildings, making it a densely populated area.
There were quite a few zombies on the main road, but the space was too large, so they didn't seem like many. Moreover, given Zhang Lin's physical condition, he wasn't afraid of zombies at all in the open terrain.
Even with An Qingge and the others with him, Zhang Lin could spot the zombies in advance and deal with them with a pistol, preventing them from getting close.
Meanwhile, following the map towards the suburban villas, the further they went, the more desolate and sparsely populated the area became, with fewer and fewer zombies, making it safer and safer.
Later, Zhang Lin even found a few shared bicycles on the roadside, smashed the locks, and the group rode off, instantly increasing their speed.
After cycling for about two hours, the An sisters and Ji Yuetong, except for Zhang Lin, had reached their limit. At this point, they finally arrived at the foot of a mountain.
"Damn, we're finally here!" Ji Yuetong stopped her bike and kicked it aside. "That's the downside of shared bikes, they make your butt hurt after riding for a while."
In fact, An Qingge and An Qingwu also had sore buttocks, and their legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
But An Qingge has a strong personality. She started working at a very young age to support herself and her younger sister, so this little bit of hardship is nothing to her.
As for An Qingwu... she used to be a bit spoiled, but with the arrival of the apocalypse, she can overcome any problems she encounters on her own.
As for Zhang Lin...
His buttocks were a little sore, but he wasn't very tired.
"Do you see that?" Ji Yuetong stood up and pointed to a small path. "If you walk along that path, it will take about three to five minutes to reach the villa area."
"Can villas built in such a remote location really be sold?" An Qingge, a professional salesperson, asked this question professionally.
“When this villa was built, it wasn’t even considered for sale to ordinary people,” Ji Yuetong smiled. “Besides, the land here is cheap.”
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up," Zhang Lin urged. "You must all be tired after walking for so long. The sooner you get there, the sooner you can rest."
"Follow me." Ji Yuetong led the way, entering the path as she walked, saying, "No matter what happens in a moment, don't say a word. I'll handle everything, okay?"
"Why should I listen to you?" An Qingwu said indignantly. "I knew it. Everything you said before was a lie. You're definitely not a real estate agent, and the villa definitely isn't your client's house!"
"Xiao Wu, don't talk." An Qingge patted her sister's back and looked at Zhang Lin.
They weren't stupid; the longer they spent with Ji Yuetong, the more loopholes appeared in her words.
It's only because Zhang Lin trusted her; otherwise, the An sisters wouldn't have come to such a desolate place with her.
"I'll listen to Yue Tong."
Zhang Lin also touched An Qingwu's hair and said with a smile, "Although Yue Tong is keeping a secret from us, she won't harm us. When we arrive, she will tell us the secret."
“I didn’t mean to hide it from you!” Ji Yuetong explained, “It’s just that the truth is too bizarre, and you wouldn’t believe me even if I told you. Besides… I only gradually remembered some of these things.”
The four walked and talked. A few minutes later, after turning a corner, a newly built villa area with high walls came into view.
"Hope City!"
Zhang Lin saw a huge brass plaque hanging above the gate of the villa area and softly read the words on it.
"Yes, this is the city of hope in the apocalypse!"
Ji Yuetong also looked at the plaque, her tone carrying an indescribable complexity.
"Who goes there!"
As the group was still surveying Hope City, which was supposedly a villa district but was actually just a small city, several people in security guard uniforms came out from inside the iron gate, looking at Zhang Lin and his companions warily.
Zhang Lin immediately became alert, his hand already reaching for the pistol tucked into his waistband.
Ji Yuetong walked in, patted Zhang Lin on the shoulder, gave him a reassuring look, then stepped forward to the main entrance of Hope City and said to the group of security guards:
"Her name is Ji Yuetong, and she is the owner of unit 16 in Hope City. You can check her information."
