Chapter 76 - Warm Corpse 14
Without a map, Ling Liang, who was able to determine its position from just the latitude and longitude, naturally received a lot of surprise and admiration from the crowd.
Qin Lang, on the other hand, looked at Ling Liang blankly.
Ling Liang laughed: “You forgot? We’ve been there together. Biological experiment park.”
Qin Lang suddenly realized. He and Ling Liang had been looked at by everyone with ambiguous eyes these days. Qin Lang, who was always embarrassed, finally revealed an excited expression.
The experimental park was invested by the four major families in K City. This base is now open to the public, which shows that their families are likely to be in the base.
How could this not get him excited?
Just like him, everyone was in a state of excitement, and under this emotion, they almost forgot about the movement near the canteen. It wasn’t until the screams sounded in front of the canteen that all their faces changed.
This time the sound is not small, so there should be more than one person. No one hit the shutter door, but someone stepped on the small roof in the kitchen just like when Qin Lang and the others came in. The new screams sounded again, just a few concrete walls away from them. Hearing this, their scalps go numb.
Soon, the sound of kicking and knocking sounded above their heads, it seemed that someone had gone upstairs. Tang Xiaorou and He Qing asked ACheng for the key again. This time ACheng opened his mouth but when he saw Yu Chao raise his fist, he swallowed the refusal and could only hand over the key.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the entrance of the stairs, someone rushed down the stairs. Tang Xiaorou took the key and wink. Qin Lang and the others immediately understood that this group of people had kicked the door just like they did at the time.
“Come…come up…” The man who ran at the end was panting as he finished speaking. His eyes passed over Qin Lang and the others. His eyes lit up at the shelves in the canteen, and then, like the group of people just now, he ran as fast as he could to the snack area and swept the shelves with little food left.
Only Qin Lang and the few others were left with solemn expressions, “That person said that, could it be that there are already zombies upstairs?”
With that thought, Yu Chao closed the door at the entrance of the stairs as quickly as possible, while Qin Lang and Ling Liang lifted heavy objects behind the door, making sure that nothing came down the stairs before they were relieved.
After a few people returned to the canteen, some of them couldn’t believe their eyes. Their former classmates are now like homeless people who have been under the bridge for ten days or half a month. They were holding the food and devouring them, looking at them with fierce eyes and their faces were hideous. They were both embarrassing and frightening at the same time.
The food on the shelf was all Qin Lang’s and the others—the one bought from ACheng. Fortunately, there are enough, otherwise, no one from this group of people will get it, and they have no doubt that this group of people will fight.
“Uh, don’t look at us like that… We have no intention of robbing.” Xiao Fei swallowed. When he spoke, he was stared at by that group of people and took a step back unconsciously.
No one answered him, they were all busy eating. Several of them choked from eating too fast. He Qing and Tang Xiaorou met their gaze and brought them water.
Several of their eyes changed and they sniffed. So much has passed since the virus outbreak, the initial solidarity and goodness have long been buried by hunger and fear. No one wants to die, and everyone wants food, so the struggle and robbing started like this.
They gradually got used to this sudden change. At this time, Tang Xiaorou and others were still willing to give them water gently and considerately. Naturally, they were touched and moved by them and recovered some of their sanity but continue to stuff themselves without caring for their image.
Of course, that’s only part of it.
After ACheng came out, he still had the same plan that he dealt with Qin Lang and the others, but when he saw the expressions of these people that they were going to kill if he didn’t give them food, he hurried back to the room. He better hide the food boxes previously stored in the room.
Waiting until these people had eaten enough, Qin Lang and the others learned that they had escaped from the dormitory building. When Qin Lang and the others acted, those still in the dormitory finally finished eating all the food, but they have long since lost the courage and bravery that Qin Lang and the others had in the past. They also have to stand on guard for others.
And tonight, some people couldn’t wait anymore and planned to escape to the four cafeterias.
But they overestimate themselves and underestimate the zombies. The previous method of using sound to attack the west no longer works, what’s more, the zombies also learned this trick and pretend to be lured away by the alarm. When the students left the dormitory with a sigh of relief, they jumped on them immediately.
The group of people who came to the canteen have been observing some of the people who are planning to leave. They wait until those people become food and are thrown down and the zombie becomes temporarily ‘busy’, they run out.
Someone was knocked down along the way. In addition to fear in their hearts, there’s only the desire to survive. There’s no sadness or other struggle. No one looks back. No more helping fallen comrades.
At night, Qin Lang and his party went to the room where the girl rested at night. Eleven people looked at each other, no one spoke for a while. Mostly because there’s nothing to say, even the sigh was a little weak.
In the dimly lit room, Zhang Mao suddenly say: “I…seem to see Wang Lei in that group of people.”
Qin Lang’s face darkened. Tang Xiaorou noticed their expressions and asked, then Xiao Fei told her what Wang Lei had done.
After listening, the room fell silent again.
After a long time, Qin Lang’s clear voice sounded in a low voice: “Our Plan A, I’m afraid it will be done ahead of time.”
The next day, when Qin Lang and the others opened the door, seeing the group of people in front of them, they were stunned.
No wonder they were stunned. Because last night, the vicious classmates who were like beasts guarding their food have returned to their normal appearance. Even their vigilance and cautiousness were much less crazy. At least, more like a human.
And to their surprise, there were a few more boxes of food in the room. Qin Lang and the others all know that ACheng also has stocked some food, but since Qin Lang and the others had enough to eat before, they didn’t care. Now seeing these boxes of food, they don’t think ACheng would be so kind.
Then, did they also give ACheng money?
The answer is naturally no. Someone in that group recognized ACheng, who got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, as the clerk of this store. They intimidate and threaten him, making ACheng take out his stock.
All the found is on their side now, they have now control the entire canteen.
The representative in that group is tall and big, and many people in K University know him. His name is Zhou Hong, the real school bully. At this moment, he looked at Qin Lang and the others with his chin raised. His two younger brothers around him also showed disdain.
Zhou Hong asked Qin Lang and the others if they still have surplus food like ACheng, it’s better to hand over any surplus food to share all together so they can get through the disaster together. Although the words sounded high, there wasn’t anyone that couldn’t hear what was behind those words.
Qin Lang held back his anger and said that their food was on the shelf, that is what they bought for a million.
Zhou Hong and the others laughed after hearing this, full of ridicule.
Then he winked, regardless of Qin Lang and others, they went straight to the room to search.
As early as when Tang Xiaorou proposed the possibility of a base, they bought the van that the original owner put in the back of the canteen from ACheng to transport their foods and modified weapons. The extra food was also loaded into the car at Qin Lang’s suggestion.
ACheng is very timid. He doesn’t dare to open any door at all, so they take advantage of him not noticing anything, to observe the surrounding environment and move things a little at night.
Therefore, these people couldn’t find anything.
Zhou Hong said ‘yo’, “Really. However, this is the case now. I don’t know who bought it but if you want to eat, you have to obey the distribution.”
Qin Lang and Ling Liang looked at each other, their intuition telling them that it’s not so simple.
They were right. Then they heard the man say the next sentence: “As long as you let us share the school belle, I promise to give you food every day, how about it?”
“Damn it! What did you say?!”
Qin Lang was shocked and angry.
Someone from Zhou Hong snorted, “What are you pretending for, how many days has it been? You are here without food and clothing, you have to play it before, right?”
“Fuck!” Qin Lang clenched his fists tightly like he was going to punch the guy who talks.
A pair of fair and beautiful hands pressed his fist, a cold voice sounded: “If we don’t do it, you won’t give us food?”
Zhou Hong and the others thought that the school belle was hesitating too. Now this is the case, so she should be hesitant. What about the aloof goddess? Don’t she still have to lowered her head to live and obediently be fucked.
“Xiaorou?” Qin Lang shouted in a hurry.
Tang Xiaorou nodded, a smile suddenly appeared from the corners of her lips. Zhou Hong was overjoyed, he didn’t expect her to give in so easily.
But then he heard Tang Xiaorou say indifferently: “Okay, beat them up.”
The soft hand on Qin Lang’s wrist loosened and he immediately smiled. Ling Liang, on the side, wasn’t sure when he had gotten to Qin Lang side, a sneer was on his lips. Yu Chao, Xiao Fei, and Zhao Mao protected the several girls to prevent the other side from attacking.
A few minutes later, the canteen was filled with screams. The group, who just followed Zhou Hong to flee here, naturally did not dare to make a sound and didn’t dare to step forward to help anyone. They just keep a hold on their food tightly. If Qin Lang and the others are going to grab it, they will also turn desperate.
Ling Liang was happy after the beating and said: “Since you don’t want to feed us, then we’ll leave. Here is yours.”
Zhou Hong, who was beaten into a pig head, looked at him suspiciously. Others obviously didn’t believe it either. It’s so dangerous outside, only fools will go out.
Only Wang Lei’s eyes flashed from the corner of the crowd.
Soon after, Qin Lang and the others put on their backpack with clothes on their backs and came out of the room one after another, as if they planned to leave immediately.
Someone couldn’t help but say: “It’s daytime now!”
“What about day. Now the zombie eyesight has improved, there’s not much difference between day and night…”
Qin Lang and the others simply ignored this group of people and walked towards the back door indifferently.
“But it’s better to act at night, isn’t it?”
“How will they leave? Just go out like this, aren’t they just looking for death?”
At this moment, Wang Lei, in the corner, suddenly said: “They have a car!”
A stone stirred up a thousand waves, now this group of people exploded. Car! Having a car means being able to leave the school and they can go out!
ACheng suddenly said at this moment: “Be Quiet! Do you want to attract zombies? Don’t forget, my store is only on the first floor!”
As soon as this was said, the canteen became much quieter, but the chatter still hasn’t died down. They all opened their eyes wide, watching Qin Lang and Ling Liang walk at the end, looking at them warily. If anyone dares to go up, it’s no surprise that they will be beaten like Zhou Hong and the others.
“Go out? Anyone who wants to go out, go out!” ACheng encourages. Someone leaving means that fewer people will eat. He was happy.
When he said this, those people who were just about to move all slumped down in ashes. Qin Lang and the others have no food, even if there’s a car, how many days can they last? Besides, what is it like outside? Nobody knows. As soon as they drove out, they were surrounded by corpses, isn’t it over then?
And, it’s safer here for them now. There’s a lot of food, it won’t be a problem to survive for another half a month. If rescue comes, but they went out…it’s not worth it anyway.
At last, Qin Lang and the others got into the van smoothly.
The van is really used to load goods so there’s only one row of seats. The back of the van is empty with no seat, but this is also good for Qin Lang and the others. Otherwise they will squeeze into the car and jam it down.
Ling Liang knew the way so he was responsible for driving. Just as the door was about to close, a figure suddenly appeared. The figure was thin and grabbed the girl by the door.
The girl screamed reflexively. It was Wang Lei who came.
The scream quickly attracted the surrounding zombies. These zombies are obviously much faster than a few days ago.
Ling Liang immediately started the car. However, the car may not have been used for a while, it doesn’t work the first time.
And the two zombies were getting closer.
“Let me get into the car. Let me in the car, please.” Wang Lei begged.
The people in the van were also sweating profusely. Seeing the zombies getting closer, Qin Lang and the others were unwilling to take Wang Lei with them but they also don’t want to let the zombies get in the car and eat them because the door can’t be closed.
There are four girls sitting in the back seat. The girl closest to the car door was the one calling Ling Liang husband.
The girl also knows that, although she also heard about Wang Lei’s bad deed, she has no choice but to pull him up. However, the zombies were already behind him.
Wang Lei’s mind went blank, he reflexively pulled hard on his outstretched hands. Before the girl could react, she was pulled out of the van and half fell to the ground.
At this moment, the car finally started. Wang Lei was full of excitement: “Drive, drive, drive!”
Yu Chao saw the sitting girl being pulled down, he immediately stood up to save her, however, the speed of the zombies was faster than him. They already bit her. Seeing this, he was burning with anger. Seeing Wang Lei, who was still trying his best to squeeze into the car, he yelled: “Are you fucking human?!”
“I’m not…” Wang Lei just wanted to say that I’m not trying to buy time, but the girl, who had been bitten, grabbed onto his leg tightly.
His hands were clasping the door with one foot on the door while the other foot was firmly dragged by the girl. The girl’s eyes are full of hatred. Harm me, then die together!
He looked eagerly at the people in the van, but no one pulled him anymore. The reason is simple, they dare not. The girl has been bitten and can’t be saved anymore. None of them want to be the next ‘she’. The story of the farmer and the snake was played out right before their eyes here.
The speed gradually increased. The girl is still holding Wang Lei’s leg, it never loosen. A blood trail was dragged on the ground but she used all her strength. Wang Lei kept kicking her with his feet, kicking until her nose was bleeding. The girl’s originally beautiful face was full of footprints, but she still held onto Wang Lei tightly, as if she felt no pain.
Wang Lei cursed in his heart. This woman, just how powerful is she! No. No. Must kick her away. Wang Lei gritted his teeth and kicked hard one last time. The girls’ necks are crooked from the visible force.
With the girl’s neck crooked, her hand holding Wang Lei finally slowly released. Just when Wang LEi finally breathed a sigh of relief, the zombie, who had been chasing the van, suddenly jumped. It jumped directly onto Wang Lei’s back, biting him hard on the neck.
“Ah!” Wang Lei kept struggling, and finally fell off the side of the van. Those zombies no longer chased the car but surrounded Wang Lei. The screams of being bitten were getting further away.
The van door was quickly closed by Yu Chao the moment Wang Lei was pulled down.
Everyone in the car’s heart was beating fast.
