About ten minutes have passed.
An unusually lively and encouraging melody faintly reached my ears.
1105 looked towards the corridor with anticipation.
Tap tap tap! Tap tap tap!
An extremely irregular vibration sound came, and then 1105 saw a very horrifying scene.
This caused his expression to freeze instantly, and his hands and feet to go numb.
"A flock of ducks swam across the bridge in front of the gate. Come quick, come quick, count them! Two, four, six, seven, eight! Quack, quack, quack! So many! I can't count how many ducks there are! I can't count how many ducks there are..."
As the clear nursery rhyme drifted away, 1105's thoughts became increasingly chaotic.
1105 was finally able to lift his stiff fingers.
The scene was so shocking that his mind went completely blank.
What kind of ability does one person possess to stand unscathed in front of dozens of zombies and make them obediently follow him?
1105 couldn't help but have a huge question in his heart: Is this mysterious person who calls himself X really a person?
On the eighth floor, Yan Xiangxiang and Jiang Ling were also waiting nervously to catch a glimpse of X's true face.
However, the two of them clearly felt the floor shaking and the chandelier on the ceiling swaying from side to side.
"Gagaga..."
Jiang Ling glanced at Yan Xiangxiang.
Yan Xiangxiang blinked her big eyes, unsure, and asked, "Is this counting ducks?"
Jiang Ling's red lips moved slightly, but in the end she just nodded and said nothing.
Yan Xiangxiang leaned closer with an expectant look on her face, "What is X doing?"
Her expression immediately changed, and she took a step back abruptly, exclaiming, "Oh my god!"
"What's wrong?"
Yan Xiangxiang paused for a moment, then turned her head with great fear, "So many zombies."
Jiang Ling was older, and after hearing the story, she immediately checked the situation outside.
The X they had been waiting for was completely covered from head to toe.
He was dragging a suitcase with one hand and holding a rope with the other.
Jiang Ling looked along the rope and found a zombie at the other end that had lost its ability to move on its own.
She spotted the Bluetooth speaker hanging around the zombie's neck and immediately understood.
"X is using sound to attract zombies."
What does he want to do?
A message popped up in the homeowners' group chat.
Yan Xiangxiang immediately opened her phone to check.
1105: This X's identity is highly suspicious. Where is there a normal person who can stand unharmed in front of zombies and lead them out?
2001 closed the book on his desk, held his phone a little further out, and realized he had thought about the problem. But the little girl had never done anything wrong, and had always helped them.
Thinking of this, he typed out a line: I only know that my mother used to tell me, "When you drink water, don't forget the well-digger." You can't eat your meal and then curse your mother.
The others were initially lost in thought because of 1105's words, but after seeing the message sent by 2001, 1803 was the first to jump out and support them.
1803: The uncle is right! No matter what reason X has for standing in front of the zombies, at least these past few days, X's help to us has been genuine.
0803: Sister Ling and I both felt that X couldn't possibly be a bad person.
1704: Do you know what X was just doing?
2001: It's clearly helping us lure the zombies out.
1803: Yes! He did it to make our situation safer.
1704: In the beginning, when he delivered supplies to us, I did have some malicious suspicions that he had bad intentions. I thought he would poison us and try to kill us.
1704: But after spending so many days together, my feelings don't lie, and I believe him.
2001: I don't know anything else, I only know that this little girl brought me supplies, and when I was attacked by zombies while retrieving the supplies, she appeared in time and saved me.
2001: As our ancestors said, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude, let alone a life-saving kindness.
1803: This girl didn't just save the uncle; she saved all of us residents in this building. So we have no right to doubt or criticize her.
0803: Yes, she was the one who took the initiative with us from the very beginning.
1704: Yeah, he looks like he's still a minor.
1105 remained silent.
1803: Wait a minute, Uncle, you already knew who X was?
2001: Wasn't it because that little girl wouldn't let me say it?
After it was revealed in 2001 that X was a young girl, everyone who used "he" in their posts tacitly changed it to "she".
1803: This girl looks so young, is she in high school?
2001: How could I possibly know?
0803: By the way, after she takes all the zombies away, can we visit each other without worry?
1704: Yeah! How about we get together tonight? Have a hot pot or something.
1803: Isn't that a coincidence? I actually have two bags of hot pot base in my fridge.
0803: I want to eat spicy hot pot!
0803: Sister Lin asked me to tell her that she wants to eat clear broth hot pot!
1803: Okay, you guys bring your own ingredients, we'll have a hot pot with two broths tonight!
0803: I really want to eat some green vegetables! Does anyone have any green vegetables at home?
2001: It's nothing. Your uncle has planted some on his balcony. Do you want some cilantro?
0803: Wow! Cilantro pie is in for a treat!
1105 stared at the constantly scrolling messages on her phone, clenching her fists.
1803: @0803 @0804 @1105 @1704 @2001 @X
1803: Come on over at 8 PM.
1803: Behave yourselves, don't wait for me to come knocking on the door.
Upon seeing this, 1105 was shocked. He actually tagged him?
Immediately afterwards, his eyes reddened; he was giving himself a way out.
He hesitated for a long time before finally sending a message.
1105: @X I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said those things to doubt you.
1803: Bro, apologize to me in person when we meet tonight. Remember to drink three cups of wine as punishment before you start eating! Otherwise, you're not allowed to eat cilantro! I'll eat it all myself.
1704: Holy crap, don't go too far! What about the rest of us? I don't care, I'm eating too.
0803: +1
Of course, Lin Xi knew nothing about these things.
After all, it's a good habit she developed since childhood that she absolutely cannot look at her phone while walking on the street.
Be wary of cars on both sides.
After searching the warehouse for a long time, she finally found the portable gas stove. She unpacked it and found that its size had instantly shrunk by two-thirds.
Lin Xi paused after stuffing in a few more small gas canisters.
Oh, right, there's another wounded person here.
What will Aunt Hongxia do when they all move to D City?
