Wear a Thriller To Protect the Boss

Chapter 12: Zombie Siege 12

When the kitchen knife suddenly stretched out and slashed straight to Huo Yinting's front door, Huo Yinting made a decisive action, quickly dodged and avoided, and then firmly clamped the opponent's wrist, pulled it out of the closet, and slammed it to the ground.

The man's head hit the corner of the hard table and couldn't help but scream, then he hurriedly got up and looked around everyone in horror.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me." He begged in a hoarse voice, "I have no mutation, I... I just heard your movement downstairs, we are all humans!"

Jiang Bin gave him an angry look: "Knowing that they are all humans, are you still using a knife?"

"I'm just afraid that you will accidentally hurt me..." the person whispered, "Actually, I don't have the strength to resist now."

He looked about forty years old, but his hair was half gray, his face looked gray and haggard, and he was almost skinny. One can imagine what kind of torture he has experienced before.

Huo Yinting looked down and asked him coldly, "How many days have you been in the closet? Do you know the zombies outside?"

"They are my partners." The middle-aged man stared at the dry blood on the ground, still having a lingering fear. "Two days ago, one of them mutated and killed the other three. I hid in the closet in time and managed to escape. After a catastrophe—but they have been wandering in the house, and I dare not go out."

Huo Yinting and Pei Yi looked at each other, and Pei Yi nodded: "It should be him."

"Are you Mr. May?"

"...How do you know me?"

"We are Meimei's friends." With red eyes, Song Xing took out the picture of herself and Meimei from his schoolbag. "We are here to find you in E City."

Mr. Mei stared at the photo, his expression unconsciously revealed a bit of panic, he tremblingly asked, "Then... What about Mei Mei?"

Song Xing said sadly: "When we arrived at the villa, she had been bitten by a zombie. The medicine you left behind is not real, it only lasted her one day of life."

"Isn't it true?" Mr. Mei opened his eyes instantly, and he asked in disbelief, "How could it not be true? They promised me that this is a first-hand source and an absolutely effective formula!"

Maybe Meimei was right. Her father was indeed an insatiable and stingy businessman. Even when he learned of his daughter's death, his first reaction was still concerned about the authenticity of the medicine.

Zhou Tu couldn't help but said, "If this medicine can really resist viral infection, do you think it can be bought with money so easily?"

Zhang Ting didn't bother to continue: "Seeing that you have a lot of stupid money, you are just cheating on you. The real prescription is still in the hands of high-level officials, idiot."

"..."

Mr. Mei's eyes were absent and he shook his head like self-hypnosis: "No, no, you must be lying to me... My medicine will never be fake. I have already got the address and I want to see you. The superior who controls the medicine source...I am only one step away from success..."

Pei Yi keenly caught the point, and his eyes sank: "Who is the superior who controls the source of medicine? Where is the address?"

However, Mr. May turned a deaf ear, he just sat down on the ground languidly, repeating those few words dullly.

"No, my medicine is not fake, and Meimei is not dead. I sent the medicine to her. How could my medicine be fake..."

Bai Yu couldn't see it, so he kindly stepped forward, trying to help him up.

"Mr. Mei, Miss Mei has indeed passed away, please be sorry."

"Yes, your daughter is really dead." Zhang Ting pointed at Huo Yinting casually, "She shot it herself."

So this sentence became the last straw that overwhelmed Mr. May.

Mr. Mei suddenly raised his head, his turbid sight accurately locked Huo Yinting not far away. He picked up the chopper left next to him and suddenly rushed towards Huo Yinting like crazy.

"You killed Meimei, it has nothing to do with my medicine! My medicine is real!"

Huo Yinting leaned back, which could be avoided, then Pei Yi chopped his hand and grabbed the knife, and pushed Mr. Mei to the ground again.

"We have no need to lie." Pei Yi said, "You should be very clear in your heart that if the medicine is true, your partners will not die."

"..."

There was no fresh water for three days, and there was a sudden bad news. The double blow of the body and the spirit had brought Mr. May to the brink of collapse.

His brain is like a rusty machine, running more and more slowly, but Pei Yi's words still reminded him of some details that had been missed before.

The partner who was injured at the beginning appeared sluggish when he came back from the outside, not only lied that he was unwell, but also hid in the toilet alone for a long time.

He didn't care at first, until the opponent suddenly mutated.

He turned around, opened the drawer tremblingly, and found out a box of medicine-exactly the same as the one in Mei Mei's house.

Sure enough, the needle in the box was missing one tube.

The man had used the medicine secretly, but the medicine was fake and failed to prevent the spread of the virus.

Everyone was taken advantage of.

Mr. Mei shook his hand, and the whole box of medicine was scattered on the ground. He covered his face with his hands, and suddenly wept in despair.

Song Xing flipped through his schoolbag for a long time, found the last bag of bread, and handed it to him sadly.

"Mr. May, you...you can eat something first."

"After we finish eating, I wonder if we can talk about business matters." Huo Yinting said solemnly, "Business matters about the address of the medicine source."

A flash of lightning flashed through the window, thunder blasted loudly, and the heavy rain that had been brewing for a long time finally poured down.

Mr. May’s hysterical weeping gradually turned into a sorrowful sob, and then to silence. He was silent for a long time, until everyone thought he had fainted, but he raised his head without warning and looked at Huo Yinting.

He was stunned for a while, then gave her a strange laugh.

"Address? I saved the address in my phone, but the phone is downstairs, so I didn't bring it up."

"Downstairs?" Zhou Tu, the nearest to the door, turned around immediately, "I'll get it."

At the moment when everyone's eyes were attracted by Zhou Tu, Mr. Mei, who was still decadent and weak, suddenly stood up like a glimmer of light.

With all his strength, he climbed onto the window sill, opened the window and jumped off the second floor.

The explosive power of the beggar was far stronger than expected, so that Huo Yinting tried to hold him, but failed.

He fell from the second floor to the muddy ground, struggled to get up, stumbled and ran into the distance.

Another flash of lightning flashed past, and the wandering zombies found him, and one of them accurately bit his neck.

He quickly disappeared into the boundless darkness.

Everyone was shocked, and Song Xing's feet were soft and almost fell.

Huo Yinting closed the window abruptly, and turned downstairs blankly, without looking back.

When death becomes a common occurrence, the eyes used to watch the world become numb.

The others are on the second floor, around the tables and chairs just set up, sharing the little food left in their backpacks.

Huo Yinting sat downstairs alone, guarding the broken corpses of the zombies, and lit a cigarette.

The red light of the cigarette disappeared between her slender fingers. She closed her eyes in the smoke and sighed deeply.

The sound of the rainstorm concealed the sound of footsteps behind her. Someone pressed her hand on her shoulder. She was suddenly alert, and she was about to elbow back subconsciously.

Pei Yi grabbed her wrist backhand and said calmly, "It's me."

"…Feel sorry."

Pei Yi sat down next to her and handed her the biscuits in her hand: "It's time to find a way to get supplies at the next stop."

Huo Yinting nodded: "After finishing the supplies, go to City G."

Just now, she used Mei Mei’s birthday to unlock the four-digit password of Mr. Mei’s mobile phone. And in the mobile phone, I found an anonymous message sent to Mr. Mei by a mysterious number.

-Changwu Hospital, South District of City G, and the last train at 12 o'clock on the 17th at the High-speed Railway Station of City E.

It is true that there is love for her daughter, but it is inferior to interest.

No one knows what Mr. Mei has experienced before that, so that he eventually became nothing, and was even buried in such a vicious circle.

"G city is a first-tier city, a special economic zone, and densely populated. After the outbreak of the virus, it has been focused on protection." Pei Yi said, "There is total martial law, and self-driving cars will not be allowed to enter. If you want to go, you can only go through this train."

Huo Yinting pinched out the cigarette **** with one hand, pondered for a long while, and then sneered suddenly.

"Now that all sides have fallen, it is easier said than done to protect the safety of a city alone? Sooner or later, they will be buried together."

"Yes, so it's not a good plan for us to go to City G."

She glanced at him: "But I know, you are also going."

Pei Yi looked down and wiped the gun in his hand, moving slowly but firmly: "This is a dead end, but you have to go forward. If you really find the medicine, I hope it will be at least a little bit more."

If you can live, live bravely, and even lead more people to live together. After all, no one wants to face this devastated world alone. How is it different from purgatory?

He will never forget that the comrades in his squadron died in this disaster one after another, and he personally killed them who were mutated.

If possible, he wants to carry everyone's regrets and go further.

Huo Yinting replied calmly: "Okay, where are you going, where do I go."

"Actually, you don't have to do this." Pei Yi's voice is as cold and low as ever, but in such a rainy night, it sounds inexplicably gentle and confused. "With your ability, you can get out of this team and act instead. It will be easier, why bother to stay?"

"The life and death of the rest of the team doesn't matter to me." Huo Yinting's answer was unexpectedly straightforward, "You just need to live."

"why?"

"There is no reason. Good people make sense when they do things. I'm not a good person and I don't need to give you reasons."

Pei Yi was silent.

Yes, it seems that she has played a cold-blooded role in the team from beginning to end. Other people can't do cruel things, and she takes care of them all without hesitation.

She is like an unsentimental executioner.

However, she is also equivalent to one person taking all the moral responsibilities. She didn't have to shoulder this responsibility in exchange for others' peace of mind.

"Thank you."

He has never been good at expressing, the only thing he can say to her is this.

He wanted her to understand that no matter what her starting point was, he would accept her love.

"You're welcome." Huo Yinting smiled, "When we are all alive in the end, it's not too late for you to thank me again."

"A word is a deal."

"A word is a deal."

In the darkness, the two held each other's hands tightly, which counted as some kind of silent agreement.

This road is far from over, and there is a more bleak mist ahead.
