Driving the white gauze curtains to roll inward.

Bai Tao sat in front of the old man's hospital bed, looking at his sleeping grandfather for a long time without saying a word.

He was not brooding over the old man's health.

The doctor at the hospital said that the old man only needed to rest in a ventilated environment. As a medical student, Bai Tao naturally understood that the old man was fine.

His silence was more about him thinking about his sister.

Because he noticed something strange happening to his sister in all aspects, he finally made up his mind and called her ten days ago.

On the phone, my sister's answer was hesitant.

No reasonable answer was given for her disappearance in these months.

Bai Tao understood that this was not like a sister who could do everything perfectly without any loopholes. She could hide it from the outside world, but it was impossible for her to hide it from her stupid brother who was not so good in comparison.

This was obviously hinting something to him.

But Bai Tao didn’t understand.

In silence, Bai Tao looked up and out the window.

The sun was still shining brightly, its scent permeating the smell of hospital disinfectant, inexplicably giving Bai Tao a sense of security and tranquility.

In a trance, I caught a glimpse of a raven appearing on the windowsill.

On the slender black wings, there are golden lines that spread like vines and grow to the eyes.

"Um?"

Bai Tao asked in confusion.

When did it appear?

My eyes were fixed on the windowsill, and I didn't even notice when the raven appeared.

Bai Tao stared at the overly handsome raven and subconsciously looked at it carefully.

The numbers 12138 seem to be engraved on the tips of its wings, and the golden patterns on its body have a mysterious and ancient feel.

Its eyes are blood red, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

A trance like falling into a dream flashed through my mind.

“Uh…ah…”

A roar and howl that did not sound like that from any wild animal or human was heard.

Then, there was silence.

Bai Tao's nervous pupils suddenly dilated.

He subconsciously looked back and found that there was no one else in the private ward.

The strange sound seemed to come from outside the ward.

"What happened..."

Before Bai Tao finished his words, he heard roars coming from outside the quiet ward.

Along with that roar came waves of desperate screams and cries of humanity.

Bai Tao swallowed and looked away.

He saw that the raven that had been standing on the window opposite him was gone.

But Bai Tao Wuxia doesn't care about such trivial matters.

After looking at the old man and confirming that he was still safe and sound, Bai Tao stood up and walked towards the door of the ward.

Through the narrow view of the small window on the door, Bai Tao tried to look at the corridor outside.

The place where the roars and screams came from was now bloody.

Blood splattered on the walls of the corridor.

A man who was still twitching fell to the ground, bleeding continuously, leaving a large sticky mess on the ground.

And above the fallen person, a creature of the same humanoid form was kneeling on the ground, gnawing at the still twitching corpse on the ground.

What was going on? A biochemical virus outbreak?! Fear surged in my heart.

But Bai Tao suppressed his fear and covered his mouth.

Reason prevented him from making any sound, for fear of attracting the attention of those man-eating monsters.

However, the little girl in the room opposite Bai Tao didn't seem to be as calm as Bai Tao.

Bai Tao could see the window of the room opposite, where there was also a girl leaning over and looking out.

However, the girl obviously couldn't control her fear. After seeing the horrific scene outside, she screamed subconsciously.

Although she quickly covered her mouth again.

But the monster eating on the floor of the corridor apparently noticed the sound.

It stopped eating and looked up at the girl's door.

Time seems to freeze at this moment.

Then he walked towards the door of the girl opposite.

Bai Tao swallowed and slowly squatted down.

He covered his mouth tightly and dared not look outside.

There were sounds of monsters roaring, doors slamming, and girls screaming in fear.

Every time the monster banged on the door rhythmically, it seemed to create ripples of fear in Bai Tao's heart.

Bai Tao remained silent for a long time.

Under such circumstances, it is natural to try your best to protect yourself.

That girl was stupid and not calm enough and that's what hurt her.

No one could save her.

Bai Tao found a reason for himself in his mind.

But listening to the girl's increasingly desperate voice and the creaking sound of the door that could no longer withstand the banging, Bai Tao couldn't calm down for a long time.

In a trance, memories flashed before my eyes.

He still remembered that when he came to visit the old man every day, the little girl from the opposite ward would often come to accompany him to tell stories to the old man who had just woken up.

Her well-behaved appearance not only makes the old man feel at ease, but he also likes her very much.

How could we expect a ten-year-old girl to be absolutely calm? Thinking, Bai Tao slowly stood up.

"If the movement on the other side continues, it will attract more monsters and it will be disadvantageous to me."

Bai Tao murmured softly.

After finding an excuse for himself, he picked up the chair in the ward and opened the door almost without hesitation.

After making the decision, Bai Tao became calmer and more rational than ever before.

After quickly looking around to make sure there were no other monsters in the corridor, he closed the door behind him and rushed out decisively with a chair in hand.

Aiming at the monster's back, Bai Tao hit its neck with the chair with all his strength.

If there are no other weapons, a severe blow to the neck may be the best option.

The zombie-like monster fell straight to the ground after being hit, its neck twisted and deformed, and it lay motionless on the ground.

"Phew, it's okay."

Bai Tao let out a long sigh and knocked on the door to indicate that the girl was fine.

The girl stopped sobbing when she heard the sound, and leaned on the window to look out.

When she saw Bai Tao for the first time, she felt relieved at first, and then she seemed to have discovered something and stared at the back of Bai Tao with horror.

See the girl's expression.

With almost no hesitation, Bai Tao turned around decisively.

The unrecognizable corpse that had been eaten beyond recognition and was lying on the ground was now rushing towards him from behind.

The great terror between life and death made his hair stand on end.

Bai Tao had no time to react. He just felt a black screen in front of his eyes in an instant, and the stench and smell of blood hit him in the face.

Pain was the last thing he felt.

…

The next moment, the dark picture became bright again.

Bai Tao, with his muscles tensed, was about to exert force, but suddenly stopped.

In the last second, the unrecognizable zombie was approaching and ready to be eaten.

But at this moment, everything became quiet.

A breeze outside the window.

Driving the white gauze curtains to roll inward.

Bai Tao found himself leaving the bloody corridor without knowing when and sitting back in front of the window.

It seemed as if everything that just happened was just a dream.

The sun was still shining brightly, its scent permeating the smell of hospital disinfectant, inexplicably giving Bai Tao a sense of security and tranquility.

In a trance, I caught a glimpse of a raven on the windowsill out of the corner of my eye.

It still stands there, as if it had never disappeared.

"Hello, I'm Raven 12138."

The raven made such a sound amid Bai Tao's incredulous gaze.
