When Qiao An'an opened her eyes again, she saw Ya Ya kissing her.
The little girl in front of her, Ya Ya, was not yet three years old. She blinked her clear eyes, which had not been ravaged by the apocalypse, and looked at Qiao An'an with a smile: "Mommy, Ya Ya is hungry."
This sight startled Qiao An'an so much that she jumped out of bed.
She has been struggling to survive in the apocalypse with Ya Ya for more than ten years!
How could Ya Ya's face become so small?
Could it be... that she was reborn?
Qiao An'an pulled out her phone from the bedside table in surprise. April 30, 2024. In the previous life, the apocalypse broke out on May 1, the statutory Labor Day. At that time, many people were traveling in other places, and the streets were full of citizens who were on holiday. When the zombies were airdropped, the scene was completely out of control.
If all of this is true.
Does that mean she was reborn the day before the apocalypse?
Thinking of her comrades who had left her one by one in the battle against zombies over the past ten years, Qiao An'an hurriedly opened her contacts.
I saw an empty address book.
Qiao An'an then realized that she didn't have her teammates' contact information at this time.
But it's alright.
Grandpa Gu, Grandpa Li, Grandma Li, and Little Fish live across the street.
She can go and pick them up first, and then slowly contact the others.
Qiao An'an put on her coat and was about to go downstairs when suddenly an air raid siren sounded over the city. It was the kind of air raid siren that usually only sounds around 10 a.m. on September 18th each year.
Why would an alarm go off at this time?
Qiao An'an sensed something was wrong.
In my memory, April 30, 2024, was an ordinary day. The relevant departments did not sound any air raid sirens, nor did they issue any notice that all residents should stay at home.
Others who are reborn can foresee what will happen to them, but why does everything feel different after she is reborn?
While Qiao An'an was still in a daze, she heard the announcer's voice coming from the loudspeaker in the community across from her house: "Due to the sudden outbreak of a major epidemic abroad, we have received a notice from higher authorities that all residents in the city should be placed under home quarantine. All working people should return home immediately, and students should be sent home by their schools. Please make sure to keep your mobile phones switched on to receive the latest news related to the epidemic and prevention."
While the broadcast was taking place.
Qiao An'an received a group invitation on her phone. It was a group chat that community staff had added her to for easier management purposes.
In the residents' WeChat group, community staff sent three identical messages in a row: "Everyone, turn on the TV immediately."
Someone in the group asked, "Which channel?"
Someone immediately replied: "This is fucking weird, no need to change the channel, every channel has the same content."
Qiao An'an's family doesn't have cable TV, so she can only access Douyin (TikTok).
All videos and live streams on Douyin have disappeared; they are all being rebroadcast on CCTV-1.
On the screen, the news anchor, with a serious expression, addressed everyone: "A virus with a 100% fatality rate has been discovered abroad. The virus spreads through spit and blood; anyone scratched or bitten will become infected and die. Currently, the virus has not spread to China. Please do not go out. Citizens traveling abroad must return home before 12 noon today. Those unable to return home by 12 noon should find a hotel for self-isolation; the isolation costs will be covered by the government..."
This message was being played repeatedly on Douyin (TikTok).
The chat is full of comments: "Wow, the infection fatality rate is 100%. Anyone who gets scratched or bitten will get infected and die. The news is practically saying outright that this is a zombie virus!"
"Could it really be a zombie virus?"
"It's the zombie virus, okay? Someone on the foreign internet just posted pictures of a lab in a certain country. The person there looks like a zombie, and even several armed men can't subdue him!"
"What are you guessing? This is real society, not anime. You guys watch too many horror movies, don't you?"
Qiao An'an watched all of this in astonishment.
In my previous life, photos of a certain country's laboratory were posted on Weibo and Douyin, but the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs came out to refute the rumors, saying that these things were completely unfounded.
The matter was then dropped.
Following this, a zombie virus from a certain country spread globally. my country immediately suspended all entry and exit procedures. However, unexpectedly, radical elements from that country and Dr. Yu's group suddenly airdropped zombies into shopping malls and scenic spots where large crowds gathered in my country.
In Qiao An'an's memory, there was no such thing as home quarantine in her previous life.
Did someone leak information about the zombie virus outbreak to the government in advance and gain the trust of the leaders?
Regardless of whether the country takes action.
In the future, supplies will be the scarcest resources, and there is also a Ma Teng in the opposite community. Qiao An'an felt that she needed to go and buy things immediately and persuade Grandpa Gu and Little Fish to come to her place.
Qiao An'an added Grandpa Gu, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, and Little Fish on WeChat through group search.
Little Fish Sister failed Qiao An'an's verification.
After Grandpa Gu accepted my WeChat message, he sent an animated "?" and a voice message from Gu Bei: "Do you need something from my grandpa?"
Mr. Li and Mrs. Li have set their WeChat accounts to not allow strangers to add them as friends.
Qiao An'an realized that she was probably the only one who had been reborn. Grandpa Gu, Uncle Li, and Aunt Li didn't recognize her yet, and Xiao Yu only knew her Douyin account, not her WeChat account.
Who would believe an account that randomly adds people as soon as it joins a group?
Qiao An'an wanted to contact Chi Xiaoyu through Douyin, but perhaps because the news about the zombie virus had been all over the screen, Douyin was now completely dominated by news, and the chat and tipping functions were all canceled, and even sending messages was not possible.
