Shangguan Yuxin was really calm and the combat training she had received from the army showed its might. Her graceful figure dodged the zombie’s attack and then she pulled the rifle’s trigger.
‘Puff!’
‘Scratch!’
Even though she shot the zombie, it still scratched her clothes. Shangguan Yuxin checked the place the zombie scratched after confirming it was dead and with a quivering voice she said, "My flesh has not been scratched!"
Shangguan Yuxin as a doctor definitely knew that if the zombie had scratched her, she would be infected; she had to deal with such wounds several times.
"It’d be better if you follow me." Chu Han said calmly and his eyes landed on her chest, where the zombie had scratched; a beautiful purple pendant was there.
Disgust flashed in her eyes and she turned her back to cover her white skin.
Chu Han ignored Shangguan Yuxin’s action; it was natural that she hated him. Actually, he could have blocked the zombie attack but he didn’t find it necessary.
They reached the second floor and the zombies were more than downstairs; each floor had more zombies than the previous one. Chu Han kept killing zombie after zombie, if he was not rus.h.i.+ng to find medicine for Luo Xiaoxiao, then he wouldn’t stop since he’d earn much more credits. He only stopped when Shangguan Yuxin told him to.
"It’s on this floor!" Shangguan Yuxin dragged Chu Han who enjoyed killing zombies, "It should be here."
Chu Han looked around and found that they had reached the tenth floor while he was ma.s.sacring zombies. He nodded and started exploring the floor until they found a door. The tenth floor was really dark and the door before them was closed weirdly.
Staring at the door he had an ominous feeling.
It was more silent than any other floor, the danger was lurking around. Although it was that messy, they had only met a few zombies. Chu Han could not help tightening his grip on the ax and staying vigilant against Shangguan Yuxin.
There was something wrong!
They were silently walking and even though there were many obstacles they didn’t take a detour. Besides, they should be careful of the doors they were pa.s.sing by since zombies could jump at them.
"There." Shangguan Yuxin said quietly and pointed at the door. She said, "I’ll go in and you’ll block in the door."
Chu Han looked at the corridor, two zombies were rus.h.i.+ng at them.
Chu Han looked at the corridor that only two zombies were rus.h.i.+ng to them. He looked at Shangguan Yuxin rus.h.i.+ng to the room and kept silent; it looked like the doctor wanted to kill him.
‘Puff’
He only needed to swing his ax twice and the zombies fell on the ground. Chu Han suppressed his excitement of gaining a large number of credits and entered the room quietly.
The room was not that small but it was filled with medicinal odors. It was darker than outside and the only source of light came through the ventilation system. Shangguan Yuxin was hurriedly searching through shelves and her boots made various noises while stepping on spilled pills on the floor.
Chu Han hid in a cabinet and looked at Shangguan Yuxin. What was the doctor trying to find?
After a while, there was a slight noise which was not caused by Chu Han or Shangguan Yuxin.
‘Bang!’
Chu Han raised his head and stared at the ceiling. The noise was very weak, only a person that had evolved to phase 1 could hear it, so Shangguan Yuxin didn’t notice it and kept searching.
She did not know that Chu Han was there nor she could hear a third party’s movement.
The ceiling was shaky and with some cracks, white dust started falling to the ground from those cracks.
Chu Han peeked at Shangguan Yuxin who hadn’t noticed anything and shouted suddenly, "Get out."
"Ah!!"
The startled Shangguan Yexin shouted and her shaking hands dropped something; they were two tranquilizers! As she was looking at Chu Han her heart was about to explode from nervousness and her forehead was full of sweat.
Chu Han looked at her and pretended seeing nothing. He turned his head slightly and looked at the ceiling. Shangguan Yexin turned pale, she wanted to use the tranquilizer against Chu Han; it was not for Luo Xiaoxiao!
She did not believe that Chu Han hadn’t seen; he was a shrewd man that didn’t trust her, but why did he not react?
Didn’t he care? No, impossible!
Had he fallen for her? Not even in her dreams!
"How did you know I was here?" A young child’s voice sounded.
There was someone there?! Shangguan Yuxin was shocked and dumbfounded. She looked at the ceiling where Chu Han was looking at.
The female doctor saw a dark hole and feet filled with dust hanging in the air. Two white feet were shaking and there was a furry toy beside them. It was a dirty dull white rabbit with long ears.
The scene was like a horror film. There were only two shaking feet while the upper body was hidden in the dark.
Shangguan Yuxin suppressed her fast-beating heart and tried to calm down.
It was a human being, not a zombie nor a ghost.
Then the doctor bent down while Chu Han was looking at the little girl. She stretched to pick up the tranquilizers and put them into her pocket. However, her body stiffened because Chu Han was looking at her intriguingly; then he turned his eyes on the weird girl sitting on the ceiling.
Did he see something? Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
"What is your name?" Chu Han asked. He ignored Shangguan Yuxin and focused on the little girl.
"Li s.h.i.+rong." The little girl looked down at Chu Han and there was a curiosity in her clean eyes, "How did you come here?"
Chu Han looked at the girl and relaxed after confirming she was a normal person. He ignored the question, "Are you the only one here?"
"No, my sister is here too." The girl, Li s.h.i.+rong, murmured.
"Where is your sister?" Chu Han felt strange and thought how could two sisters live in the hospital?
