Lin Xi pointed to the peephole, gesturing for Wu Jing to look.
She took a few steps back, her face turning pale, after just one glance.
Lin Xi took out her phone and shoved it in front of Wu Jing's face: "Your boyfriend is too noisy; he's attracted all the zombies."
Wu Jing quickly tugged at Liu Ye's hand and whispered, "Liu Ye, can you please stop talking! The zombies are all coming this way."
Liu Ye's face darkened, but he remained defiant: "Who are you trying to scare?"
"See for yourself!"
Snap snap snap—
Snap snap snap—
There's no need to look anymore; the knocking on the door is incessant, like a child learning to play drums, completely lacking rhythm.
Lin Xichou, the door to her house was just a mid-range door she randomly picked, it can't withstand this kind of knocking, it will break.
She suddenly felt a pang of regret, carefully considering whether it was too late to throw the man out.
Liu Ye was so frightened that he took several steps back and hid behind Wu Jing.
Wow, what a disgusting pose! She shook her head. This girl really has no taste; how could she have picked such a rotten person?
They even said he's usually very gentle.
It's really impossible to tell at all.
"What do we do now?" Liu Ye finally got scared, and his voice became much softer.
Wu Jing looked around, walked to the dining table, picked it up, and used it to block the doorway, but it was obviously not very useful.
Whoosh—
A bluish-gray hand broke a hole in the door, and Wu Jing collapsed to the ground in fright.
Liu Ye had already retreated to a corner of the living room. "This won't do! Someone needs to go out and lure the zombies away!"
"No! This is too dangerous!" Wu Jing refused without thinking. Going out meant certain death, while staying in the room might give them a better chance of survival.
Liu Ye seemed completely unconcerned; he had become so deranged that the only thing on his mind was the thought of surviving.
He pulled Wu Jing aside and whispered in her ear.
"You're insane!"
"So what? As long as I can survive, I'll do anything!"
Wu Jing looked at him with a complicated expression, as if she were meeting him for the first time. "Liu Ye, I'm warning you, you'd better not do anything reckless!"
Lin Xi was a little annoyed. There was a loud knocking on the door outside, and it was noisy inside.
Liu Ye casually picked up a baseball bat and suddenly walked towards the door.
Lin Xi suddenly stood up. What was this guy doing? Was he planning to go out and die with the zombies? Was he an idiot? Her gaze swept over Wu Jing.
Something's wrong with Wu Jing's expression. He's going out; shouldn't she be worried? Why is her face full of fear and dread?
She walked to the door.
A mechanical sound begins—[Hazard Assessment: Two Stars]
Lin Xi was taken aback. What?
Just then, Liu Ye pushed the dining table aside, gripped the doorknob, and clicked...
Lin Xi didn't have time to carefully consider the system prompts before she tried to stop him. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he revealed a malicious smile. He opened the door, pressed one hand against her back, and pushed her out.
Wu Jing held tightly to Lin Xi's clothes, and the two were locked in a stalemate.
With a fierce look in his eyes, he pushed Wu Jing out as well.
Clang—
The door is closed.
A menacing voice came from inside, cutting through the doorway: "Since you're so eager to die, then go die with her!"
Wu Jing stared wide-eyed in disbelief. They had been dating for two years. In the first year, Liu Ye had been incredibly attentive and considerate to her, attending to every little detail.
However, after he started looking for internships this year, he became a bit irritable. She could completely understand it and tried to appease him in everything. She thought that at least he loved her, and that everything would be alright once they got through the first two years of the work transition period.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment of life and death, he repaid kindness with enmity, trying to kill the little sister who had taken them in, and even ruthlessly pushing them away...
Wu Jing suddenly felt a little confused. What kind of person was the one she had loved for two years?
The zombies smelled the scent of living people and pounced on Lin Xi, pinning her to the ground and leaving her unable to move.
A few drops of warm liquid splashed on her face, and her heart, which had been dead, throbbed with pain.
The sound of flesh and bone being ground by teeth filled her ears, making her heart clench. A piece of flesh mixed with bone fragments fell from a zombie's mouth onto her face...
She suddenly felt a chill run through her body.
Wu Jing didn't utter a single word from beginning to end.
Lin Xi clenched her fists.
Damn it! That rotten, stinking man...
After the zombies had eaten their fill, they began to wander aimlessly again...
Lin Xi was stunned for a long time. This girl was so silly. She didn't know that she was also a zombie, so she held her tightly and shielded her from the beginning.
She looked up and saw that apart from her face, which was still relatively clean and intact, Wu Jing's entire body was a mess. She looked like the rag doll that Lin Xi had when she was a child, which had been chewed up by a golden retriever. The cotton wool was scattered all over the ground, and several pieces of fabric were torn to shreds, looking like they would fall apart at the slightest touch...
"Idiot..." Lin Xi's pronunciation became increasingly unclear, "I...don't need you to save me..."
Lin Xi got up, took out her keys, and opened the door. Through the fist-sized hole, she could clearly see the fear and shock on Liu Ye's face, as well as his cowardly, hesitant eyes...
He realized what was happening and rushed over to try to lock the door, but he was too far away and was clearly a step too late.
Liu Ye swallowed hard, looking at her with a wary expression: "What do you want to do? My girlfriend just protected you so you weren't hurt. I'm her boyfriend, so I'm practically your benefactor!"
Lin Xi sneered inwardly; this logic genius had finally figured it out.
Too lazy to say anything more to him, Lin Xi picked up the baseball bat from the ground and mercilessly smashed it down on his legs and hands, hitting each joint.
He hit it again and again, as if venting his anger.
Liu Ye covered his sore spot, his forehead covered in sweat.
Hearing the commotion, the zombies slowly began to gather around the area.
Lin Xi glanced around, tossed the baseball bat aside, and dragged Liu Ye by the collar as they walked out.
With a dull thud, he fell to the ground.
Liu Ye's expression changed drastically, and he cursed loudly, pulling at his wound, "You can't repay kindness with enmity like this! My girlfriend saved you!"
It seemed he had forgotten that it was Lin Xi who had opened the door for them, protecting them from the zombie horde.
He himself had an emotional breakdown and started yelling, which led to the zombies surrounding him.
He was also cowardly and ungrateful, pushing his savior and his girlfriend out to try to lure the zombies away.
If such a beast, worse than a pig or a dog, were to continue living, it would be an outrage against heaven and earth!
Lin Xiyou was still angry, so she kicked him hard and slammed the door shut.
Then he stood in front of the cave, watching indifferently as he finally died.
"Go and join her. Dying in the bellies of the same horde of zombies is a kind of reunion." The voice was hoarse and extremely unpleasant.
"No! No! Please save me, save me!" Looking at the approaching horde of zombies, he felt only despair. He was so young, he didn't want to die!
