Chapter 124 - 124: Infected
Another day passed. Zhao Hao was originally still shy and embarrassed, but now he let go a little. Ever since Zhao Hao woke up, Ye Xingchen had never called him upstairs for dinner again. Every day, he brought down a lot of food for Zhao Hao and Li Anran.
Zhao Hao immediately relaxed a lot. He was afraid that Ye Xingchen would bring him and Li Anran upstairs for dinner. He was afraid that Li Anran would say something to make Ye Xingchen unhappy.
The remaining eight people at the door were also sitting in the security room with different thoughts.
They wanted to leave, but they felt that if they left, then Ye Xingchen really had the medicine. Wouldn’t they miss out?
However, compared to the beginning, they were now sitting much further away. They were originally sitting together to keep warm, but now they were staring at the others, afraid that the people who were with them would suddenly transform.
“Are you feeling unwell anywhere?’
I don’t, but do you? Are you thirsty? I’m not thirsty anyway.”
No one was willing to stay in danger. Originally, they were still concerned about each other. In just half a day, they had become suspicious of each other. If there was any movement, they would immediately jump up and want to throw their companions out.
The neighborhood gate outside was still being slammed. Inside, there were companions who might mutate at any time. Their hearts began to change quietly.
“Didn’t we kill a lot of mutants before? Why don’t we…”
“I don’t want to. If you want to go, go by yourself. Don’t bring me along.”
“That’s right. I don’t want to die, you can if you want to. Before, I didn’t know that there was a possibility of being infected by them. If I knew, I definitely wouldn’t have come.”
“That’s right. I wonder if Ye Xingchen did it on purpose. Did he already know that these people had an infectious disease, so he told us to be careful from the beginning and not be scratched or bitten by them?”
“Exactly. Now that you mention it, I think so too. Otherwise, why would he tell us in advance to protect ourselves?”
“Damn it, I didn’t expect Ye Xingchen to be such a person. Isn’t he treating us like cannon fodder and sending us to our deaths?”
“I was wondering why he still hasn’t come after waiting for so long. Maybe he didn’t think of coming to save us!11
Li Qiang listened silently at the side. He was very upset when he heard it.
He thought that he was dead set on following Ye Xingchen, but for some reason, when he heard what the others said, he actually had a feeling that Ye Xingchen had only treated them as cannon fodder from the beginning.
“Don’t say that. Brother Ye is usually very good to us. I asked my friends before. The management of their neighborhood took away all their things and didn’t even leave them a single bite.”
“Yeah, actually Brother Ye is already very good to us. At least he gave us something to eat. Hey, 1 don’t think we can blame Brother Ye for this.”
The person who spoke was called Lin Pei. He had also received a reward for five people before. At that time, he witnessed how accurate Ye Xingchen’s marksmanship was.
In fact, he was not wrong. Ye Xingchen did not know that those mutants could transmit the virus. After all, without a few of them, Ye Xingchen really did not know that this mutation could be transmitted through wounds.
“Let’s not talk about this. I just want to say, do you guys feel that it’s suddenly getting hot?”
Li Qiang) who had been silent at the side, suddenly interjected.
For some reason, when he heard them say that Ye Xingchen was only using them as cannon fodder, he suddenly felt a burning sensation surge out of his body.
He was burning up.
“Is there? I don’t feel anything?! Isn’t it still so cold? The wind is still blowing outside.”
“Don’t say it. After you said it, I seemed to feel a little hot too. ltrs really strange.”
After Li Qiang finished speaking, not long after, five of the eight people in the security room began to twitch.
“F*ck, what’s going on? It can’t be a mutation!”
The other three people’s eyes almost fell out. Lin Pei, who was sitting at the edge of the door, was the first to rush out of the security room.
“Quick, come out quickly. What are you two still standing there for?!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the few people who had been twitching suddenly began to roll their eyes. They even shook off the scarves that were wrapped around their faces to keep out the cold.
“Hurry up, hurry up, close the door!”
They had guessed correctly. The five people who were twitching started to twist their limbs in the next moment. Then, they suddenly showed a strange smile towards the door and started ro walk over and knock on the door.
The security booth was built temporarily. Even with Lin Pei and the others blocking the door, it could not withstand the impact of five adult men.
Not only did rhe people inside knock against the door, but they also knocked against the wall.
In less than half an hour, a security booth had been forcefully knocked down by them.
“F*ck! Run!”
At the front gate were people who had already mutated. Now, the ones chasing them were their companions who had just mutated. Lin Pei and the others were so scared that their courage was about to break.
However, Lin Pei was luckier than them. He grew up in the countryside. He knew how to climb trees. Just as the snow stopped, everyone tacirly dug a passage, and there happened to be a few landscape trees on this passage.
Lin Pei did not dare to think about anything else. He hugged a tree and rushed up.
The snow covered the height of a three-story building. Fortunately, for the sake of looking good, the landscape trees planted by the property management were all four stories high. Lin Pei clung to the top of the tree tightly, trembling as he watched the five people who had just completed their mutation push the other two people who did not run away to the ground and then eat them one bite after another.
The difference was that this time, the cry for help came directly from under him. Lin Pei was so scared that he could not help but pull up his feet.
Ye Xingchen and Lin Sijia were watching the surveillance footage.
The situation was not optimistic. This was different from what he had thought at the beginning. He originally thought that only those who were seriously injured or bitten would mutate, but it seemed that this was not the case..
