Chapter 6, Evasion
Chen Lingfeng frowned: "Isn't the entrepreneurship park located below the girls' dormitory?"
The entrepreneurial park is a place for university students to open shops within this university, featuring over a dozen stores, including Taobao purchasing agents, milk tea shops, supermarkets, and more, all funded and established by the students themselves, making it a gathering place for the affluent.
Both the class leader and Chen Lingfeng are over 1.8 meters tall, which makes them quite robust compared to my height of only 1.72 meters. Therefore, among us, only the two of them are able to make decisions.
On a sunny day, we tread upon the vibrant red grass, continually moving towards the distance
"Let's wait," Chen Lingfeng suddenly said with a frown
However, blood dripped from the zombie's disfigured face, landing on the class leader's face
The entrepreneurial park is an open space, providing a clear view from the outside.
"Where is it?" I asked anxiously. Perhaps it was due to my overwhelming fear and the desire to reach a safe place as soon as possible that I asked so impatiently
She pointed to an iron door next to a shoe store and said, "That iron door leads to the storage room of our School of Environmental Science and Engineering."
I thought I would be safe after leaving the cafeteria, but it turns out that the outside is the most dangerous place
Chen Lingfeng looked at Lu Dandan and me, and said to the class monitor: "We can't worry about so much right now. Let's first go to the entrepreneurship park and see if there are any zombies. If there are, we will think of other ways; if not, we will go to the storage room. This plan is definitely better than just waiting here for the zombies to come."
Indeed, as I think about it, the class monitor's shout was certainly loud enough; the zombies in front of the cafeteria must have heard it and are now making their way towards us
Knock, knock, knock. The class monitor tapped on the frosted glass of the door
"Don't thank me just yet. Your shout for help just now was loud enough; I estimate that in a little while, a large number of zombies will discover this place," Chen Lingfeng said with a frown.
Hmm. Lu Dandan nodded
Suddenly, the door was violently struck from the inside, causing the class leader Chen Lingfeng and another person to step back three paces in fright. A shadow collided against the frosted glass, creating a slight crack in the glass, and blood faintly appeared behind it.
The bedroom was the first place to fall, and it was also where the zombies first spread their infection. The once safe cafeteria has turned into a hell due to the mutated zombies; it is unknown how many people have died inside and how many have managed to survive. As for other locations, I cannot think of any suitable hiding places. The teaching building is out of the question, as it is surely filled with zombies.
There are zombies inside! The class monitor said in terror.
"But now the school is full of zombies, where can we hide?" I asked
Several of us furrowed our brows in unison
The class leader said helplessly, "Alright, let's go to the entrepreneurship park first"
Chen Lingfeng picked up the iron chain, "This door is locked, which makes things a bit difficult"
Bang bang bang— Shortly after, several more sounds of impact were heard, suggesting that there were other zombies inside the supermarket that had arrived at the entrance.
Where is it? I asked
"Wait!" After hearing the class monitor's cry for help, Chen Lingfeng was the first to react. He turned around in place a few times and spotted a shovel leaning against the wall. His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ran over, picked up the shovel, and rushed back. Then, he swung it around and struck at the zombie on the class monitor.
I also think we should go eat something first said Lu Dandan
The class leader asked with confusion, "What if the entire entrepreneurship park is filled with zombies?"
Bang
The journey was smooth, and a few minutes later, we passed the large flowerbed between the male and female dormitories, carefully avoiding several zombies. Crawling on the ground, we crossed the towering arch bridge and ran a dozen steps, arriving at the entrance of the entrepreneurship park at the foot of the female dormitory.
The class leader and Chen Lingfeng led the way ahead, while I followed closely behind with Lu Dandan, slowly walking into the entrepreneurial park. Within the entrepreneurial park, there are more than ten shops, selling clothes and shoes among other items. At the very front of the entrance to the entrepreneurial park is a small supermarket. I looked at the tightly closed doors and windows of the small supermarket, holding my painfully hungry stomach, and came to a stop.
The class monitor and Chen Lingfeng saw the figure behind the door and quickly retreated.
Following her finger, we saw a bloodied zombie staggering out of the shoe store
"The zombies are coming, we should hurry and leave," I said
I don't know. The class monitor brushed off the dry grass from his body and said helplessly
"Xu Le, why have you stopped?" Lu Dandan asked me
Where! I gazed at her with hope
Lü Dandan pointed to the girls' dormitory to the south and said, "It is just below our girls' dormitory"
Help me quickly! the class monitor shouted
The class leader pressed their elbow against the zombie's neck, preventing its mouth from getting close to their face to avoid being bitten
The zombie lunged at the class monitor, baring its bloodied fangs and roaring as it attempted to bite down. The left side of the zombie's face had been mostly bitten off, with its eyeball dangling outside, swaying back and forth in front of the class monitor as its head bobbed. A few of us watched from the side, feeling extremely nauseated
... ...
A few of us stood frozen in place, staring in horror at the scene unfolding before us. It was the first time we had encountered such repulsive zombies, and my legs began to tremble uncontrollably, rendering me unable to move. This fear that arose from the depths of my heart was not something that could be overcome in a moment.
The class leader stopped him and said, "Wait a moment, what if the entrepreneurship park is really filled with zombies?"
The zombie's head was crushed by the shovel, and the eyeballs that were swaying outside burst open, splattering the liquid inside onto the class monitor's face. The zombie seemed to be dead, its body no longer thrashing about wildly as it had just moments before, completely collapsing onto the class monitor.
The sound of the zombie's roar is not loud, but we can hear it clearly
Chen Lingfeng and the class monitor exchanged glances, both clutching their stomachs, realizing that they were indeed feeling faint from hunger. They had not eaten anything since last night, and if this continued, even if they were not eaten by zombies, they would starve to death first
Chen Lingfeng swallowed hard while holding a shovel and said, "Let's go, we need to hurry. There are probably zombies inside this supermarket"
Aww
Chen Lingfeng and the class monitor also turned around to look at me
Aoo—
The two of them do not know each other; they are only acting together because of my connection
I can't believe it! The class leader cursed, wiped the disgusting liquid off his face, pushed away the repulsive zombie on him, sat up from the overgrown grass, looked at Chen Lingfeng, and said, "Thank you."
The storage room has arrived said Lu Dandan
I was taken aback; the class monitor's words were not without reason. What if the entire entrepreneurial park is filled with zombies? How can we still access the storage room?
I know where we can hide!" Lu Dandan suddenly said
Walking along the central road of the entrepreneurial park, we dared not approach the edges, as we were aware that there were zombies present among the shops lining the sides. After advancing for about ten meters, Lu Dandan instructed us to stop.
A few of us did not dare to hesitate and quickly left the back of the cafeteria, passing through a deep alley, away from the cafeteria and the boys' dormitory, evading the zombies that were coming around from the front of the cafeteria
Suddenly, a zombie's roar echoed from the edge of the cafeteria. It must have been the class monitor's loud shout that attracted the zombies in front of the cafeteria. This did not come as a surprise to us; it was just one wave of trouble after another. In this state of constant fear and anxiety, we do not know when it will come to an end
"The storage room of our School of Life Sciences and Technology," Lu Dandan said, pointing in the direction of the girls' dormitory
I nodded in realization, recalling what Zhang Chen had said in the morning
The roar of zombies emanated from the supermarket
... ...
Chen Lingfeng glanced around at the quiet surroundings and said, "Alright, let's go to the supermarket to get something to eat. But we must be careful; what if there are zombies inside the supermarket"
What should we do now? Where can we go? I asked
Chen Lingfeng nodded, "Alright, let's go to the entrepreneurship park"
I pointed at the supermarket and said, "I see there are no zombies here either. How about we go to the supermarket first to get something to eat?"
I nodded and said, "Class monitor, Chen Lingfeng is right; we should go to the storage room first."
"There are no zombies inside," I said
With a "pop," it struck the zombie's head directly, the sound resembling that of a fresh watermelon being smashed.
Lu Dandan and I were watching from behind
The shovel sliced through a gust of wind
The entrepreneurial park is surprisingly quiet, with not a single ghostly figure in sight. Perhaps it is because the zombies in the school have gathered around the cafeteria, leaving this place feeling desolate.
In the face of the *illustrated* book, I realized that I am truly quite cowardly. Watching the class monitor being pounced on by a zombie, I was too frightened to move. Now, my mind is not functioning well, and I can't come up with any ideas for survival. I let out a self-deprecating laugh; what is the point of thinking about these things now? Surviving is the most important thing.
Indeed, the storage room is located in the center of the entrepreneurial park said Lu Dandan
"Waiting for what?" the class monitor asked
The class monitor's voice was so loud that it startled several of us awake
Hmm," the class monitor nodded, "I will go over there first. You all wait here. If there are no zombies, I will call you.
Chen Lingfeng said: "Did Zhang Chen not mention this morning that he called his father and said the army would come to rescue us tomorrow morning? So as long as we find a place to hide and survive until tomorrow morning, when the army arrives, we will have a chance to live."
Chen Lingfeng hesitated and said, "Let's go together; it will be better to have someone to look out for each other." He took the shovel and followed the footsteps of the squad leader ahead.
Chen Lingfeng and the class monitor also looked at her, the only girl among the four of us
Several people looked at each other, with no suitable place to hide.
Lu Dandan and I also looked at him curiously, waiting for what?
I realized that we haven't eaten anything since yesterday, and if this continues, we won't even be able to walk. The class monitor supported me and said.
Neither Lu Dandan nor I dared to hesitate, following closely behind Chen Lingfeng and the class monitor as we entered the entrepreneurial park. We were unaware of how many zombies were in the supermarket; in any case, this group of zombies was beyond the capability of the four of us to confront.
The class leader and Chen Lingfeng arrived at the entrance of the supermarket, which was tightly closed. Each of them grasped a door handle and pulled together, only to find that the door did not budge at all, indicating that it had been locked by someone.
