Chu Han really wanted to drag Shang Jiuti with his hands as he asked her to wait for him since the environment was strange and weird, but Luo Xiaoxiao also jumped out of the car and followed Shang Jiuti with her rifle. She was also anxious as she ran into the building.
What is actually happening? Didn`t Luo Xiaoxiao hate Thirteen very much?
Chu Han was so surprised as his doubts became larger and larger. The two woman`s att.i.tude towards Thirteen was so strange. He carefully looked at the building. It was very gloomy especially since it was nighttime. The moon which had some tint of red that could be seen above the roof equipped the place with a feeling of death.
Dark blood splattered and formed strange shapes while the dead branches that lined the wall gave the place an even creepier feeling. Every inch of the place was weird
Chen Shaoye went to carefully park the van on the exit on the opposite side, per Chu Han`s orders. He always thought that there was something wrong in the orphanage so they should leave as soon as possible if an accident were to occur.
"Go!" Chu Han said to Chen Shaoye quietly and walked in front of him with his axe.
Shang Jiuti and Luo Xiaoxiao had gone inside. Chu Han and Chen Shaoye quickly searched for them while using their flashlights. There was a hall inside the orphanage. It was empty while a colorful map was on the ground. Rotten meat scattered around it, so it was very hard to distinguish. Chairs and desks were everywhere and a wooden leg of a table was broken.
Dark material was on the walls. It could not be distinguished whether it was human blood or the blood of the zombies. There were a lot of toys at the corner and a white doll was covered in blood.
There was neither zombie nor humans inside but a fierce fight should have occurred here. It could be judged from the hall`s current state. Skipping the ground floor, Chu Han and Chen Shaoye quickly went upstairs. The orphanage was so small that there were only two stories. The rooms were in the second floor. They should clearly hear a noise if there were any, but it was so quiet here.
It seemed to be empty, as if the two women had vanished into thin air.
There was a corridor on the second floor and it was so dark without any lights. There were two big rooms on both sides; a lot of double-decker beds filled the rooms. It should be the orphan`s sleeping quarters but now it was all messy and dirty. Blood was splattered into the sheets. Chu Han saw a toe bone in a bed. It should be the toe of an eight-year- old child.
It was a child that was bitten by zombies.
Chu Han used his flashlight to scan the rooms and kept going when he saw there was nothing worth noticing inside. He then came at the front of the last room`s door. He knew nothing about the room but there was n.o.body else in the orphanage. He clearly saw Shang Jiuti and Luo Xiaoxiao running into the building so they should be here.
However, why weren’t they making any sound?
Chu Han stopped at the door. His caution made Chen Shanye so nervous. His heartbeat easily went into more than two hundred beats per minute.
"Boss? Have they been bitten?" Chen Shaoye’s word stopped Chu Han from opening the door.
"Bitten? By who?" Chu Han thought his thinking was not perpendicular to Chen Shaoye`s.
Chen Shaoye swallowed his saliva as he tightly stared at the door. He did not brave saying another word since he felt that his voice was loud and sudden. It sounded creepy in such a quiet place.
Ka!
The door k.n.o.b was turned.
Along with the sudden noise, Chen Shaoye`s fat body shook three times.
Chu Han went into the room.
Chen Shaoye looked at Chu Han`s shadow then towards the surrounding eerie environment. He followed Chu Han since he felt it was safer to stay with his boss no matter what the situation.
The moonlight with a tint of red went through the clear window and was reflected by the clear brick floor.
The room was not dark and it was so large and messy. Everything was scattered around but it was cleaner than other places. The brick seemed to be clean.
There was a working desk opposite him. The desk seemed to be old and had already started to fade.
There were piles of doc.u.ments and books. There were two rows of tall cabinets on both walls.
A dismantled white curtain was lying on the ground.
Chu Han turned off his flashlight as he quietly looked at the scenery.
"Ahahah! Ghost! Ghost! Ghost!" Chen Shaoye loudly shouted. He could not endure it when he entered into the room as he hid in Chu Han`s back.
Chu Han rolled his eye towards Chen Shaoye. There were only zombies and humans, there were no ghosts.
"Shut up!" Luo Xiaoxiao stared at Chen Shoaye and cursed him, "Don`t f.u.c.king shout!"
Shang Jiuti also stared at Chen Shaoye as she looked forward nervously.
Was it a woman or a female zombie?
She wore a white dress and her skin was so white. Her small bare feet looked very beautiful. She was curling on her knees while sitting on the ground. She had her thin back against the office desk.
The black and waist-length hair was scattered to cover most of her body. She bent down and buried her face on her knees.
Her arms wrapped around her knees to cover her face. Some sort of liquid substance was dropping down from her hands as a pool of blood lay beside her.
It was black blood.
Her palms were filled with blood and rotten meat that her skin could not be seen.
Chu Han’s eyes stayed at her palms for a long time. He frowned. The skin was so white and it was very pale. The light was insufficient so he had a hard time distinguis.h.i.+ng if she was a human being or a zombie.
"Thirteen?" Suddnely, Shang Jiuti said gently. It was first time for Chu Han to listen to the gentle tone of Shang Jiuti, "Will you come with us?"
The woman in white clothes suddenly moved when she heard Shang Jiuti`s voice.
Her fingers suddenly moved.
Looking at her movements, Chen Shaoye was alert. The action was so mechanical and it seemed to be a machine that had not operated for years. It must be a zombie.
The woman in white clothes moved again before Chen Shaoye could react. It was not mechanical. She shook her head slightly and the long hair moved like a wave. There was a natural sense of beauty.
The girl in front of them was Thirteen?
Chu Han was so surprised. She called her a girl since the girl looked so young. She should be just 17 years old. The girl, sitting on the ground, stayed in the orphanage without a human being with her. A feeling of compa.s.sion washed over him.
"Nope?’ Shang Jiuti was embarra.s.sed. She looked at Chu Han as she slightly stepped forward to persuade her.
Shang Jiuti`s actions greatly stimulated Thirteen. She suddenly raised her head as if some had invaded her territory. Her eyes were cold and her voice was so icy.
"Get out!"
Chu Han looked at the beautiful face when she raised her head. The entire body was quivering and incredulousness could be seen in his eyes!
How could it be her?
It was her!
