Chapter 4

Under the flickering dim street lights, bloodstains could be seen. Zombies banged on the doors and windows of the vehicles blocking the road, breaking the glass from time to time, grabbing one or two people and biting them, causing screams.

Some people abandoned their cars and ran away, knocking on the doors of nearby shops and residents.

Those with people inside would not open the door, and those without people inside locked the door, so they could not open it and eventually died at the claws of the zombies.

Fu Erdie felt that the road was only a little congested now, but in half a day it would be completely blocked by abandoned vehicles.

The water, electricity and gas at home were still working, so Fu Erdie took the opportunity to cook a big pot of rice, enough to keep her full for two days.

The rice and kimchi are delicious. Fu Erdie is not picky about food.

While eating, I continued to call my parents, grandmother and best friends.

While she was washing dishes after dinner, she suddenly received a call from an unfamiliar number.

Fu Erdie was delighted and didn't care about anything else and picked up the phone immediately.

Thinking of the various dangerous situations the other party might face, she whispered, "Hello?"

It turns out that this approach is correct.

Because the other person's voice was also very small.

"It's me."

Zhao Xiaolu!!! Fu Erdie suppressed the urge to shout wildly and whispered, "Where are you?"

Zhao Xiaolu: "Before others could react, I helped a business owner close the iron door and hid inside. I found that as long as we kept quiet and didn't expose ourselves, the zombies wouldn't be able to smell the scent through the wall and come over. But from time to time someone outside came with zombies and knocked on the door, and we didn't dare to open it, and then more zombies surrounded us."

Fu Erdie looked outside the balcony.

I don’t know which shop Zhao Xiaolu is hiding in.

"What can I do to help you?" Fu Erdie picked up the hammer.

"I'm going to climb out of the utility room window," Zhao Xiaolu looked alertly at the front of the traffic jam, "There's an SUV over there. The car keys are still there, but the owner has been dragged out and bitten to death. I'm going to steal that car. Xiaodie, bring as much food as you can, and come with me!"

The light was dim, but the SUV was large and Fu Erdie could see the position of the vehicle.

Under normal circumstances, she only needed to go downstairs, walk around the community gate, and turn a corner along the road outside to get there.

But now, she couldn't even leave the house. Even if she went out and ran away desperately, she couldn't bring much food with her. At most, she could carry a large schoolbag with 20 bags of instant noodles. For two people, it would take ten days to finish.

To escape, you need to find supplies and gasoline, which all require fighting with zombies.

She knew Zhao Xiaolu, she had always been good at sports, and she would work out every week after work, her wheat-colored skin was very healthy, and she could run faster than many men who didn't exercise. So she could jump off the bus when she realized something was wrong, and she could run so far and hide in a store.

If Fu Erdie went to find her, it would only cause trouble for her.

"I can't outrun the zombies and can't get out." Fu Erdie made a decision and took action immediately, "I'll hang a box of instant noodles down later. You know the location right below my balcony, right? I'll do it quietly..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhao Xiaolu interrupted her, "I'm not here to ask you for food! I'm leaving the store now, and I promised to take the boss with me. I will also take all the food and tools in the boss's store. I won't miss your box!"

This is the owner of a grocery store, a woman in her early thirties. The store sells hardware, frozen buns that can be steamed in the morning, and stored vegetables and fruits.

The boss has his own car, but the parking lot is 500 meters away and far away from the congested road. The best choice now is to find the off-road vehicle in front.

Now that it's dark, the two of them can sneak over there.

Zhao Xiaolu: "Keep your voice down, be careful and try not to alarm the zombies. Maybe they can come out."

Fu Erdie was persuaded by her.

However, the problem was not the feasibility of escape, but that I was really useless and could not help at all.

She couldn't hold her back.

"I won't go out. I plan to hold the supplies and wait for rescue." Fu Erdie lowered her eyes and suppressed her slightly sour and painful voice, "You must escape successfully."

There was a long silence.

Zhao Xiaolu said slowly: "How long can your food last?"

Fu Erdie: "At least one month. If the water, electricity and gas are not shut off, it can last for two months."

Zhao Xiaolu: "Okay, stay home first. If the situation gets better later, or I have the energy, I will come to find you. Cen Xiyang, don't worry, the business building where she is located has a good security system. The building is locked, and the zombies outside can't get in. The ones inside have been dealt with by their own people. In addition, there is a cafeteria in their building, so nothing will happen for the time being. The battery is low, I'm going to hang up first. I'll contact you later."

"Okay, have a safe trip."

She activated the telescope function on her phone and could barely see two dark figures carrying luggage coming out from a corner and quietly moving towards the SUV in the shadows.

Several times the zombies passed by them and stopped, but their attention was attracted by the screams from other places and they ignored the two people in the shadows.

It took the two of them eight full minutes to walk the fifty-meter distance before they finally got on the cross-country trail.

The roar was not prominent against the backdrop of the other vehicles speeding through the congested road. Just like that, the car drove away with a bloody smell.

Fu Erdie let out a long sigh, rested his elbows on the window sill and watched the SUV leave.

Suddenly, she discovered a problem. The zombies outside were strong, but their movements were slow, about the same speed as a normal person walking fast. Anyone who was running for their lives could quickly distance themselves from them.

It’s just that humans will consume their energy and can’t run anymore, but zombies can keep up with them at a fast walking speed, and there are also zombies blocking them from the front, which makes it impossible for normal people to escape.

The old man zombie she encountered yesterday was chasing after her at a very fast speed, which was obviously different from these zombies. Could it be that there are already second-level zombies so soon?

Or is it some kind of zombie with supernatural powers? She turned on the surveillance camera to see what was happening in the corridor.

There are three zombies wandering around in the corridor at the entrance. Yesterday, the corpse of the old zombie was still lying on the ground, which was horrible.

Fu Erdie wanted to vomit again.

She drank water to suppress it.

Anyway, she wanted to give it a try to see if every zombie was so powerful and fast, or if only the old zombies were special.

There were three zombies, one was old, the other was middle and the other was small. Fu Erdie's target was the small zombie that was as tall as his thigh.

She didn't plan to open the door of her house and bring the zombies in for research. However, from her current position, she could climb from the balcony to the next balcony and lead the zombies to the empty room next door and lock them up.

It's a little dangerous, but worth a try. Just wait until daybreak.

The sun rises very early in the summer, and you can see the condition of the balcony clearly at six o'clock.

She tied herself with a rope and moved from the high altitude outside the balcony to the next door little by little.
