Chapter 376
Since Cheng Hui could only recall part of the dream, he was unable to determine when the end of the world would come.
Judging from the clothes worn by the people in the dream, it was most likely in the last few days.
Recently, the city has been experiencing continuous high temperatures, and everyone has been wearing cool clothes. The outbreak of the doomsday event will occur in a very short period of time. Once someone changes, the people around them will be caught off guard and have no time to react. Once infected, there is basically no hope.
Cheng Hui has seen many people wearing thick clothes even when they were sweating profusely, just to avoid being bitten or scratched by zombies as much as possible.
It can be seen that it must have been summer at that time - it could never have been the summer of next year.
Now that supplies are basically guaranteed, Cheng Hui is considering whether to inform the country.
But after careful consideration, he gave up the idea.
The reason is simple: he has no evidence.
There's no way to accurately predict the exact date. The nation can't just sit there and wait for the apocalypse to happen.
In desperation, he could only write down the protection methods against zombies and the initial refuge methods he saw in his dreams, and then posted it online.
Two hours later, Cheng Hui took a look and found that the number of views on the post was very pitiful, so pitiful that he couldn't bear to look at it.
"Why……"
Cheng Hui rolled over and fell backward, staring blankly at the ceiling. This feeling of knowing that a crisis was approaching but being powerless was really terrible.
The only thing that could comfort Cheng Hui was that... he probably wouldn't have to take any final exams...
Another day passed, and Cheng Hui walked into the classroom yawning.
This class is an open mathematics class. Under normal circumstances, it is considered a lot if half of the classroom is full for such a class. But today, Cheng Hui was shocked as soon as he entered.
Oh my god...what's going on?
He looked at the people in the room with a dull look on his face. Some people were even standing in the corner because they had no place to sit.
"Cheng Hui, this way!"
The dormitory leader waved at Cheng Hui and motioned him to come over.
"What's going on?" Cheng Hui almost couldn't help but step out to see if he had walked into the wrong classroom.
"Well, didn't I hear there's a new professor here today?"
Cheng Hui was puzzled. He was just a new professor and had come here many times before. Was it necessary to be so exaggerated?
The eldest brother winked and said, "Don't you notice any difference in the people who come to the class?"
Cheng Hui looked around and saw young students gathered together chattering... He really didn't see anything special.
"Gender! Can't you pay attention to gender?!" The boss looked disappointed.
Cheng Hui then realized that two-thirds of the people in the room were relatively unfamiliar girls, and the rest were students who came to class normally.
"Why are there so many girls?" Cheng Hui secretly clicked his tongue.
"Is there any need to ask? Because the new professor is handsome." The boss said with a smile.
Cheng Hui has been busy collecting supplies these days and hasn't paid much attention to the school's official website, so he really didn't know about this matter.
But it doesn't matter. What's wrong with being handsome? Being handsome can't make a living. What if the person is also in poor physical condition and has already caused a legal crisis? At most, we will just have more handsome zombies.
What’s the use?
Cheng Hui didn't take it seriously. After finishing, he opened the textbook and stared at the contents in a daze.
His biggest worry now wasn't the apocalypse, but the fact that he couldn't find Lin Qingqiu. Logically, in a two-person illusion like theirs, the two shouldn't be too far apart, but it had been almost a week, and he still hadn't found anyone.
Isn't he in this city?
It's not impossible. After all, there are many inexplicable people in his illusion. If Lin Qingqiu is also affected by this reason, it will be troublesome...
Cheng Hui thought with a frown, what if the apocalypse breaks out before he finds the person, and he loses the support of existing transportation, how can he find the person then?
"Ah... so annoying!" Cheng Hui didn't notice that the surrounding environment had become quiet, and slammed his head on the table with a bang.
In the quiet classroom, the muffled sound was extremely harsh, and many people looked in his direction.
Trample! Trample! Trample!
Leather shoes made a crisp sound as they stepped on the marble floor, and a slender figure came to Cheng Hui's side.
The dorm leader looked at Cheng Hui, who showed no reaction, and quickly pinched his thigh—wow, it was so hard, I couldn't pinch it...
"Um?"
Cheng Hui was not a wooden man after all. He realized that something was wrong at this time and quickly sat up straight and raised his head.
result……
Cheng Hui: (⊙_⊙)
Cheng Hui: (⊙o⊙)
Cheng Hui: Σ(° △°|||)︴
"Student, are you dissatisfied with the teacher?" The handsome teacher looked at Cheng Hui expressionlessly, but there was an irrepressible smile hidden in his eyes.
"Qing..." Cheng Hui almost called out his name.
Fortunately, the other party interrupted him in time: "Yes, I am your new professor. My last name is Lin. You can call me Professor Lin or Teacher Lin."
Cheng Hui immediately realized that now was not the time to expose their relationship. Although the university was very tolerant of love, a teacher-student relationship was still inappropriate.
He guessed that Lin Qingqiu must have realized this and that was why he pretended not to know him.
"Sorry, Teacher Lin." Cheng Hui quickly admitted his mistake.
"Okay, since you apologized so sincerely, I forgive you." Lin Qingqiu smiled. "But... classmate, you can't not pay attention in class. If you lose your regular scores, it will be difficult to pass the final exam. So, after class, come to my office and I will give you a good lesson..."
Cheng Hui: ...
Why does something that sounds normal have a strong flavor of unspoken rules when it comes out of Lin Qingqiu's mouth?
This must not be an illusion...
Cheng Hui's face was calm, but he was silently holding his forehead in his heart.
Blame him, he shouldn't have explained to Lin Qingqiu what role-playing is!!!
I have a feeling that what he is thinking about right now must not be something serious...
Cheng Hui didn't hear a single word of what was said in the following class. He was almost constantly worried about what Lin Qingqiu would do when he went to his office.
Generally speaking, Cheng Hui is quite indulgent towards Lin Qingqiu, and is willing to cooperate with some of his hobbies.
However…this definitely doesn’t include doing that kind of thing within school grounds!
It's so shameful!
Cheng Hui had prepared himself mentally, determined to firmly reject Lin Qingqiu if he made that request. But the bell had just rung, and instead of the situation Cheng Hui was waiting for, Lin Qingqiu was surrounded by countless girls.
Cheng Hui: ...
Ah, I almost forgot, the purpose of these girls coming here is to see this handsome and talented teacher...
Cheng Hui looked at Lin Qingqiu standing on the podium with an expressionless face. Many girls surrounded him tightly in the center, like a star surrounding the moon.
The female classmates were very enthusiastic and asked for his WeChat ID under the pretext of asking questions.
Before the last of his smile faded, Lin Qingqiu announced loudly, "I'm sorry, I'm already married. My husband is very jealous and doesn't want me to get too close to anyone else."
"ah……"
"Why is this happening..."
"Wow, wow, wow... Teacher, you're so handsome, why are you getting married so young!"
The girls immediately began to lament, but Cheng Hui inexplicably felt that his mood began to improve.
"Sorry," Lin Qingqiu rejected everyone in a gentle but firm tone, then walked over to Cheng Hui with the lesson plan and knocked on his desk. "Student, go to the office with the teacher."
Cheng Hui slowly raised his head and raised his eyebrows: "Teacher, I see you are very busy, so I won't disturb you."
Lin Qingqiu glared at him unhappily and lowered his voice: "Go away, the women here are really too unreserved. They asked for my contact information the first time we met."
Cheng Hui almost laughed out loud. Asking for WeChat was considered unreserved? Lin Qingqiu had never seen those people in the bar who would go straight to the hotel after seeing each other. That was unreserved.
Of course, Cheng Hui has no opinion on these people. Living habits are purely personal choices. As long as they can take the risks, they can live however they want. He will not interfere with others.
"Let's go..."
Before Cheng Hui finished speaking, he heard a scream suddenly coming from outside the classroom.
"What's going on?"
"What's wrong?"
The people standing near the gate went out to see curiously, then came back crawling and tumbling, saying in horror, "It's a ghost! No! It's a zombie!"
The students were in an uproar. Some of them thought he was joking, so they looked out through the glass of the back door and started screaming too.
"They are eating people!" the male voice stammered at first.
"close the door!"
Cheng Hui reacted immediately and yelled.
The students at the door were stunned at first, but when they heard Cheng Hui's order, they instinctively pushed the door.
"ah!"
A girl screamed, and a zombie with half of its face missing poked its head in from the door, grabbing the classmate standing at the door with its blood-stained hands.
Cheng Hui was too far away to rescue him in time, so he could only yell loudly: "Close the door!"
The two boys standing behind the door reflexively closed the door, hitting the zombie on the head with a bang.
The excessive shock made everyone lose consciousness for a moment, but the loud sound of the door closing also woke them up, and screams suddenly broke out in the classroom.
"Shut up!" Cheng Hui shouted, jumped up from his seat, stepped on the table, and reached the door in two or three steps.
The zombie that was knocked out by the door did not give up. It crawled back and was still trying hard to squeeze in.
The two guys hiding at the door also came to their senses and pushed the door out with all their might.
"Roar!" More roars were heard in the corridor, and a large number of zombies were approaching.
Cheng Hui kicked the door shut and pulled two tables over to hold the door firmly shut.
"Stay here and don't let them in. Don't get close either." He instructed the two boys.
The two boys were so frightened by what happened that they broke out in cold sweats. They were at a loss and nodded repeatedly to show that they could definitely do it.
After dealing with the main gate, Cheng Hui looked towards the back door.
Normally, the back door is closed, but today there are many people in the classroom, so someone opened the back door to get some fresh air.
At this time, the back door was half opened, and the students at the door ran away in fright. A zombie was grabbing a classmate's arm and gnawing on it, which was why the students screamed.
Cheng Hui sighed. This was what he was most worried about. There were too many people in the room, and they were all college students who had never experienced anything. They would have no chance to react if they encountered zombies.
To be honest, he was already surprised that the two boys behind the main gate could close the door and even knock the zombies out.
But he was alone and didn't know how to clone himself, so he was unable to use the back door.
Fortunately, at this time, Lin Qingqiu had already run over, and successfully pushed the zombie out with the mop in the corner, and successfully closed the back door.
only……
Cheng Hui looked at the boy whose arm was covered in blood and who was crying non-stop, and sighed silently.
At least for now, there is no zombie vaccine, which means that anyone bitten by a zombie is basically doomed.
Well... it's not completely hopeless. There is still a one percent chance that he can evolve superpowers.
Unfortunately... the probability is too low, so Cheng Hui doesn't have any hope at all.
Now that the front and back doors were blocked, Cheng Hui couldn't bear to watch his classmates suffer.
The man had stopped crying and was shivering. His friends surrounded him, and some even took off their clothes to bandage him.
"Stop. He's beyond saving." Cheng Hui walked up to him and said.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The boy's companion looked at Cheng Hui angrily.
Cheng Hui pointed at the boy's finger, and everyone followed his gaze and saw that the boy's nails had turned black.
"Ah!" a girl screamed, pointing tremblingly at the back door: "The nails of that zombie just now were black, I saw it."
The classmates hid far away in an instant, and there was no space around the boy and his companions.
The boy's companion's mind went blank. Looking at his good friend who had lost consciousness in his arms, his arms unconsciously loosened their grip on him.
"Tie him up first. So as not to hurt other people." Cheng Hui understood his current mood very well and took the initiative to give him a way out.
The boy's best friend pursed his lips and said nothing more. He just clumsily tied the boy up with his companions. After confirming that it would be impossible to untie him in a short time, he slowly backed away, as if hoping for a miracle.
We are all college students, and we have all read various novels. Although the settings of various apocalyptic stories are inconsistent, generally speaking, if you are bitten or caught, you will be infected by zombies.
Even though everyone hadn't gotten confirmation of Cheng Hui's statement, they all believed it 70%. After seeing the boy's nails turn black and pointed, and his face turn paler, the last bit of hope disappeared.
"roar!"
The boy changed very quickly. When he opened his eyes, revealing a pair of blood-red pupils, and a beast-like roar came from his mouth, and everyone's heart sank.
Many people let out low whimpering sounds, and even dared not cry too loudly for fear of attracting the attention of the zombies in the corridor.
