Chapter 8 We Eat You Too!

Zhao Yunduo didn't dare to say anything. The couple outside had already started to walk down the stairs. Her forehead was already covered with tiny beads of sweat due to nervousness.

“Boom—”

“Boom—”

There were the sounds of two heavy footsteps. Zhao Yunduo held his breath, not daring to blink, and stared outside closely.

Soon, two figures appeared in Zhao Yunduo's sight one after the other. Zhao Yunduo whispered to Shen Linglan, "They are coming down!"

Shen Linglan became extremely nervous in an instant and she slowed down her breathing, wanting to listen to what Zhao Yunduo was doing.

In the hazy moonlight, Zhao Yunduo saw a figure appear in front of the rental house.

As expected, there was only a boy and a girl, but no child. The woman had given the child to deceive her, hoping that she would soften her heart and open the door.

Only after taking a look did Zhao Yunduo realize that the woman was fat. She was covered in fat, and her clothes were wrinkled and dirty.

The man was also fat, but there were many taller women as well. He had a shaved head, and just by looking at his fat face, you could tell he was not a good person.

How could they still have so much fat in this apocalyptic world? Zhao Yunduo was puzzled.

The woman was holding a steel rod, and the man was holding an iron saw that was longer than his arm.

If Zhao Yunduo was still hiding in the original room, she would be scared if she was threatened like this at night. But now it was okay, she was hiding in another room, and her best friend was with her on the other end of the phone, so she was not so scared anymore.

"If you don't get out, I'll saw off your door handle. Once we get in, it won't just be a matter of stealing your food! We'll eat you too!"

The woman yelled in a shrill voice towards Zhao Yunduo's original house, as if trying to scare Zhao Yunduo out with her voice.

"Get out!" The man kicked the door.

The woman suddenly asked the man, "Is there really someone in here? It's been two days and no one has come out, and there's no sound."

"Damn it! I already said I was pregnant!"

The man was very angry when asked.

The fat woman muttered, "We searched this place thoroughly before. No one had food to eat. We ate all the living people. How could there be any living people left?"

The man glared at the woman impatiently. "I told you I heard the sound and smelled her eating. She agreed to come out on the first day, but she didn't dare to come out."

The fat woman raised the steel rod in her hand and knocked it on the door handle. The sound of iron striking against iron made a sharp and piercing sound, which made Shen Linglan on the other end of the phone shudder all over and she almost crushed the phone.

She was so anxious and nervous. She hated that she couldn't get into the phone to protect Zhao Yunduo. She also hated that there were no police and justice in the end times, which allowed the couple to bully Zhao Yunduo so arrogantly.

The fat woman knocked on the door handle with all her strength, and soon, the door handle actually fell to the ground with a clang, and rolled twice on the ground.

After the door handle fell off, I saw the man picked up a saw, reached into the crack of the door, and dragged the saw handle up and down very vigorously.

The sound of the saw was so harsh that it gave Zhao Yunduo goosebumps.

The man took a lot of effort and finally sawed the door lock open.

He kicked the door open, took a look inside, and yelled, "Fuck!"

The fat woman followed closely behind, stuck her head in to look, and took out a small, broken flashlight from her hand, but she looked left and right and didn't see anyone.

"Where is that person? Huh!?"

The fat woman put her hand on the man's shoulder, as if wanting him to explain himself.

The man pushed her hand away impatiently, "Maybe he ran away."

"I don't think there's anyone there!"

"You doubt me?"

"Suspicious!? There is absolutely no one inside, why should I doubt?"

“Bang!”

The fat woman was slapped by the man.

The man looked around the house and said, "I think that bitch ran away! I told you yesterday to kill her quickly. If there's nothing to eat at home, use her as food. But you kept dithering and whining. Now look what happened. There's no food at all!"

The fat woman covered her swollen cheeks and complained. She looked around the house and said, "You said she was eating in the house, but there was nothing in the house that smelled good!"

When Zhao Yunduo heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

She had hidden her takeaway boxes in the washing machine after eating these past two days, and just before she came out of her room, she threw all the boxes in the washing machine downstairs. Fortunately, I was more careful at the time, otherwise it would have been confirmed that she had lived in the room and eaten in it.

The couple outside are the real devils. There seems to be no one in the building and there are only a few zombies. I guess they are the ones who did it.

"Bitch! If that woman really runs away, I'll cut off your flesh and eat it!"

The two began to quarrel face to face. Zhao Yunduo was afraid that they would suddenly turn around and discover her, so she quickly retracted her head and put her ears tightly against the wall, not daring to miss a moment of listening to the movement outside.

The man had cursed enough and was too lazy to talk to the fat woman anymore, so he left the room and walked a few steps.

When Zhao Yunduo heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, his heart almost rose to his throat.

I heard the man kick the door again and yell, "Come out!"

The door he kicked was the one opposite him, which was next to his original room.

Zhao Yunduo breathed a sigh of relief, and then he heard the man and woman using the same old tricks to saw open the door opposite with iron rods and saws.

With a bang, another door was pried open and fell to the ground.

The fat woman looked at the empty house again and finally lost her patience. She also swore at the man, "I think you are hallucinating and going crazy! There is no one here!"

"Shut up, bitch!"

"If it weren't for me, would you be alive today? Huh? I was the one who helped you cheat the landlord in the beginning, so you have a stutter. Now you are scolding me like this, do you have a conscience?"

There were two more heavy footsteps, getting closer and closer to Zhao Yunduo.

Those were the footsteps of a man. He stopped in front of the door of the room where Zhao Yunduo was hiding, raised a saw, and said to the fat woman, "Knock off this door lock, too."

"I think you've gone crazy! Where did this person come from? Huh? There's no one in this building!"

The fat woman opened two empty doors in succession. She already had a lot of complaints in her heart, and now being ordered around by the man, she became more and more dissatisfied.

"Open, open, open! Open your mother's car! I'm going back to sleep! You open it yourself!"

As expected, the fat woman did not stay any longer, and her footsteps became farther and farther away from Zhao Yunduo.

Shen Linglan on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhao Yunduo's hiding place was not discovered, otherwise Zhao Yunduo would probably be in great danger.

Just when Shen Linglan thought that the man had left and Zhao Yunduo should be safe for the time being, she heard Zhao Yunduo's breathing suddenly become heavier, and there was a sound of breath coming from his throat.

“Fuck… ah…”

The sound was very small, a very small sound that Zhao Yunduo tried hard to suppress.

A rusty iron saw appeared in front of Zhao Yunduo. The saw was inserted into the gap in the door and was sawing open the door lock up and down.

The sound was a hundred times more terrifying than what she had just heard, and made Zhao Yunduo feel like she was going to die in the next second.

Shen Linglan also heard the harsh sound thoroughly.

She was so anxious that her eyes turned red on the other end of the phone.

"What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?"

Shen Linglan was so anxious that she was running around in the room, wishing she could pull the man away from Zhao Yunduo.

She searched the house for something useful. After a while, she saw her induction cooker and cooking pot, and an idea came to her mind.

"Bao, don't worry. Find a place to hide first. I'll boil some hot oil. When the man breaks in, pour the hot oil on his face. I don't believe he won't die!!!"

Shen Linglan turned the induction cooker to the highest power and poured a whole 500 ml bottle of oil into the pot.

The induction cooker heats up too slowly, and the oil must be thoroughly heated to be lethal. Shen Linglan clenched her fists tighter as she heard the sawing sound getting faster and faster.

Zhao Yunduo's heart was about to beat out of her chest, and her breathing became rapid. She moved her body, preparing to hide at the end of the bed. If the man broke in, she could temporarily avoid sight and wait for Shen Linglan to pass the hot oil to her before coming out.

Just when the door lock was about to be sawed open, hurried footsteps were suddenly heard outside.

The voice was very deep. It should be the fat woman who came back from the stairs.

Zhao Yunduo thought to herself, this is bad, will she regret it and come back to help the man guard the door? Even if there is hot oil, it will only splash on one person, and the other person will definitely be prepared and it will be difficult to deal with.

Just when Zhao Yunduo didn't know what to do, he suddenly heard a man screaming outside.

"Fuck you! What are you doing!!!"

"ah--"

The man seemed to have suffered a serious injury and cried out in pain.

"I told you to always order me around," the fat woman laughed. Zhao Yunduo couldn't see what she was doing, but could only hear her shouting, "I told you to always trick me! I'll chop off your fingers and see if you dare to do it again!"

"Bitch! Are you crazy? Ah - it hurts - damn, are you crazy?"

There was a sound of two people fighting outside the house.

Zhao Yunduo, curled up at the end of the bed, lay on the ground and looked out the door. He could only see two figures rolling back and forth. In the night, Zhao Yunduo actually saw red bloodstains flowing into the room through the crack in the door.
