"This rain...seems a little strange. Come and take a look." Shi Qinghe leaned on the car window, rubbed his eyes, and after making sure that he was not seeing things, he quickly asked others to take a look as well.
It was raining heavily outside, with thunderous sounds, but unlike usual, this rain was black!
"There is a problem. Everyone, don't get wet in this rain." Xu Bai looked solemn, squinting her eyes slightly. If her memory served her correctly, this black rain should occur three months after the end of the world, which seemed to be much earlier than in her previous life.
"I remember now. It rained heavily the day before the end of the world, but the rain was not black at that time." Captain Lin suddenly realized and looked at Xu Bai and said hurriedly.
"Based on the speculation from that rain, will this rain also turn people into zombies?"
"That city..."
Shi Qinghe was anxious: "I hope my parents stay in the house and don't go out, and if they go out, don't mutate into zombies."
When I'm away from home and there's no phone to contact, there's nothing I can do except worry about it.
Not to mention that the people on Shi Qinghe's side were worried, the people in Shuguang City also had their plans disrupted by a heavy rain. Those who were originally required to go to work could only stay at home to rest, while others had to get up early in the morning to work, exercise, etc.
There was a sudden downpour and everyone rushed to take shelter, but some people still got wet.
On weekdays, Mr. Shi would first send Mrs. Shi to the office, and then go to the jam factory from the office.
They walked into the office, and when Mr. Shi was about to go to the jam factory, he just took a step when he heard thunder and then it started to rain.
Mr. Shi took an umbrella and wanted to leave, but he noticed something was wrong with the rain.
Especially when he saw Jiao Nanmu rushing over with his clothes all black, Shi's father felt something was wrong. He pulled Shi's mother's hand and said anxiously, "Old woman, look, the rain is black."
"Oh my god, why is it black?"
Jiao Nanmu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly took off his clothes, leaving only his underwear. He went to the infirmary to get a white coat, then took off the last pair of underwear and threw it out.
As more people came into the office, Jiao Nanmu quickly asked them to take off their clothes, temporarily removed the curtains, and asked everyone to wrap themselves up.
"What's going on, Director Jiao?"
"I suspect there's something wrong with the rain. I hope we don't catch a cold wearing such dirty, wet clothes." Jiao Nanmu folded his arms and looked at the rain outside, feeling annoyed.
"Director Jiao is right. I wonder if you still remember the rain before the apocalypse? I suspect there was something fishy about the rain before and after the apocalypse. Otherwise, why would zombies appear all over the country at the same time? If they weren't spread through rain, air, or something else, it's impossible for this to happen across the country, or even the world..."
Since the end of the world, Father Shi has been thinking hard about this problem, but he had never been involved in these studies before. He only knew how to be a president and do projects to make money.
After seeing this black rain today, it seems that the appearance of zombies can be explained.
"Then this rain..."
It's over.
These two words came to everyone's mind at the same time. They all escaped from the horde of zombies and wanted to live well.
Just as things were looking more and more promising, a black rain made them despair again.
If they turned into zombies today and their neighbors were not prepared, it would mean that the last piece of home they had worked so hard to build would be destroyed.
A feeling of despair began to spread among the group, and some people even left their last words and expressed their regrets about things they had not yet completed.
"Don't worry too much, that's just my guess."
"No, what if it is?" Jiao Nanmu was not afraid of dying, but he was afraid that something would happen to his child Jiao Yangyang. Jiao Nanmu found a loudspeaker in the cabinet next to Xu Qing's seat. After taking the loudspeaker, he began to speak loudly: "Dear residents, please stay at home during the rainy days. Don't go out, even if you are hungry. This rain is dangerous, very dangerous. Don't get wet, you might turn into a zombie! If anyone gets wet, remember to tie them up with a rope first, observe them, and pay attention..."
Mr. and Mrs. Shi, as well as Xu Qing, started looking for a rope.
On weekdays, Xu Bai always carries ropes with her, and for convenience, she also keeps a lot of ropes in the office.
The curtains that they had been wrapped around while sitting together were also pulled open and tied up at a certain distance apart.
Jiao Nanmu sat at the outermost seat, his hands and feet tied up.
The loudspeaker has been handed to Xu Qing, who keeps broadcasting the announcement.
Just when Mr. Shi had tied up everyone, a person and a chair fell to the ground in a corner, attracting everyone's attention.
The man who fell down was struggling with a ferocious look on his face. Thick blue veins bulged on his arms and face. His eyes were red and he was baring his teeth at them. Even though his face was still the same, they all knew that his movements and expressions were all like a zombie.
This rain will really turn people into zombies!
The tied person moved back with his feet in fear, but the "person" lying on the ground was also struggling and moving towards the person closest to him.
The skin and flesh on the "person"'s body were stretched out, and a lot of blood was drawn out by the rope.
Finally, the rope was burst by him, and when he looked again, it looked like a zombie.
The person closest to him resigned himself to his fate and averted his eyes, but in fact his body was shaking and he fell backwards in fear.
I felt water splashing on my face, opened my eyes and saw Father Shi smashing a zombie's head with a fire extinguisher, his body covered in the zombie's blood and flesh.
"Director Shi, thank you...thank you...thank you for saving my life."
Father Shi still held the fire extinguisher high and smashed the zombies, and he didn't move at all. "Old woman, come and help me, I have a sprained back."
Mother Shi was both relieved and helpless. "Fortunately, you are lucky. If that zombie hadn't died, and you had sprained your waist again, what would Xiao He and I do in the future?"
Father Shi was also a little scared, but seeing Mother Shi's worried expression, he tried to comfort her in various ways: "Don't worry, my dear. If I turn into a zombie, you won't be able to escape even if you stay nearby. You don't need to worry about what to do next. What we need to think about is what will happen to us after we turn into zombies..."
Father Shi cried out in pain and was helped by Mother Shi to sit aside.
After hearing their conversation, everyone's heavy mood improved a lot.
"Attention, attention, we will really turn into zombies. Don't open the door when you hear a knock. When you encounter a zombie, protect your own safety first. Don't go out..." After confirming that they would turn into zombies, Xu Qing stopped using the loudspeaker and locked all the doors.
In the office, there were ten people kidnapped here, but three or four of them turned into zombies in the end.
This ratio is very high.
Everyone was worried about the other people in the dormitory building, as well as Xu Bai and others who were out.
