“So, that doesn’t mean we can be certain.” Zheng Yongnian listened attentively, rarely offering his opinion; he gave the impression of being the kind of invisible person who blended into the crowd and was difficult to spot.
He had little presence, worked diligently, didn't cause any major problems, and steadily did his own thing.
However, he is very serious about things in the team, and he can do whatever he is asked to do without causing trouble. He is a very honest person.
Hearing him speak today was quite unexpected. Seeing everyone turn to look at him made him a little embarrassed. He gave a shy, gentle smile.
"That's indeed the case. We can only get a general idea of it and will see what happens later."
Zheng Yongnian: Oh.
The less important information that follows doesn't attract much attention; there's plenty of time, so you can learn about it slowly.
The sky was changing more and more clearly; the gray clouds felt like they were pressing down on people's heads, creating a sense of oppression and gloom.
"Don't go out anymore, you never know when things might change."
Shao Jie: Hmm.
It's not a good time to go out now; the sky looks like it's about to collapse. Anything could happen at any moment.
Nobody knows how things will turn out; we can only wait and see.
"Since you're not going out, then do something for me."
Li Xiao broke the silence, attracting everyone's attention.
Cheng Shaolin was very supportive, "What do you want to do?"
"We've been traveling a lot and our inventory is low. Let's make more while we can't go out now."
"Oh, this? No problem."
Everyone suddenly realized.
And so, the group stopped paying attention to the changing weather outside and focused on making positive plans for their future.
Just as they had predicted, while everyone was still observing, the rain started falling without warning the very next night.
At that time, most of the people in the base were already asleep.
The base lights were turned off at 9 p.m. At 10:30 p.m., a rustling sound began to rise from the pitch-black night, gradually growing louder and louder.
At first, it didn't wake those who were sleeping; only those who were awake and the soldiers on guard duty on the city wall noticed it immediately.
"Oh, it's raining."
"Wow, it really is raining! It's really raining!"
Two soldiers in a lookout tower watched the raindrops falling around them; the raindrops were clearly visible under the lights on the tower.
It started as a light drizzle, not a heavy rain. Within minutes, the raindrops became noticeably larger. The raindrops grew thicker, and the sound of them hitting the ground grew louder.
"This is a huge rainstorm."
"Yes, be careful."
The darkness of the night was shattered by the heavy rain, and more and more people who were still half asleep woke up at the sound and rushed to the window to look outside.
The two adjacent rooms were also awakened. Shao Jie, who was sleeping in the living room, rushed to the window without even putting on his shoes and looked out.
It was pitch black outside, and the only sound was the patter of rain falling on the ground, which was getting louder and louder.
"Here I am."
A deep voice sounded beside him: "Hmm."
Then the four people who were still awake in the room came out one after another and stood in the living room, facing the balcony outside the living room.
The noise outside the balcony window was deafening, but inside it was completely silent.
The neighbors, including Li Xiao, were also awake. As soon as they started making some noise, they put on their shoes and looked out the window.
"It's raining. Xiaoxiao, it's raining!" Tian Tian shouted loudly from outside the door.
Li Xiao lifted her foot from the window and stepped outside, following Tian Tian's voice to stand next to her.
I was worried it would rain, so I didn't open the windows. Even when the clouds were overhead and the room felt stuffy, I didn't open them.
It's pouring rain outside, but it doesn't affect the indoor environment at all.
We don't know what's wrong with this rain, so it's best to be cautious. Remember that red rain of the past? It brought about the destruction of humanity.
Li Xiao said wistfully, "It's raining." Her eyes were shrouded in darkness as she gazed at the uncertain future.
Countless people stood indoors watching the rain descend. The repeated onslaughts no longer alarmed these surviving humans.
No one knows what the scene will be like after the rain.
Whether it's good or bad, who can say for sure?
They huddled together for warmth, listening to the rain, but no one could fall asleep.
In the darkness, only the sound of rain could be heard.
Nightfall remains a cradle of danger.
Just an hour after the heavy rain began, a loud howl signaled the start of recovery.
Aww————
Everyone who heard the roar was startled.
This is?
The voice was very familiar, but I didn't want to confirm it.
Once the first sound was heard, countless other sounds followed.
roar--
Roar—
More and more roars could be heard, rising and falling in succession.
The unease and restlessness suppressed in people's hearts have found an answer.
The zombies that disappeared didn't vanish; they just went into hiding.
Nourished by this rain, they all awoke and appeared before humankind.
Humanity was initially shocked, then panicked and terrified. The days of being dominated by zombies had returned.
Yu Yanbin and the others stood by the window, listening to the distant roars of zombies, without any reaction.
These things have always existed, so what's there to be afraid of?
The women next door all think the same way; it's not like they haven't seen it before. It's no big deal; at worst, they'll just kill them.
The resurgence of zombies didn't affect them, but they were certain it would affect others.
The rain continued for three days before it began to gradually subside. No one dared to venture out in the rain; they could only huddle indoors to avoid it.
However, those running out of food began to panic. Clearly, the rain was beneficial to the zombies.
Even the hidden zombies have come out; people definitely shouldn't get involved.
There was no food, so even though I really didn't want to go out, I had to. I was going to starve to death if I didn't eat soon.
There are researchers at the base, and in just a few days they have already obtained preliminary data on the rain.
I only found out about this rain the next morning; it wasn't as eerie as the first rain.
It wasn't red, but black.
It's not noticeable at night, but it's very obvious during the day. The color isn't very dark; it's slightly blackish.
At first, no one noticed because the weather was still gloomy, the gray sky was dark and gloomy, and who could notice whether the rain was white?
No one dared to touch it, and if the researchers hadn't released the information, no one would have known what was going on.
"Research data shows that rainwater contains viruses that enhance the effects of zombies. Rainwater is corrosive, so avoid contact to prevent the risk of corrosion."
The base's loudspeakers were broadcasting announcements, warning all personnel not to get wet in the rain to avoid the possibility of developing diseases.
