Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Are we just going to lock them up like this?”
Inside the school, hundreds of students stood on the playground, anxiously watching the zombies inside the building incessantly roaring and discussed worriedly.
“They’ve gone mad…”
“What if they bite you?! Stop asking stupid question!”
People were buzzing with conversation.
“Brother Yi, do you know what’s actually going on?!”
Huang Zheng Yi shook his head, “1 don’t know, I’ve never seen anyone who failed the genetic elixir injection like this. People from the Reed Group said those who failed would just die…”
“Should we kill them?!” someone hesitated to ask.
“We can’t kill them!”
At this point, a female student stepped forward, “They are all our companions!”
“That’s right, even if they have gone mad, they are still our companions!”
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
Before the apocalypse, this was a school specifically for troubled children and managed with military discipline. The buildings were all designed corresponding to the military camp and the internal was constructed like a jail to prevent anyone from escaping.
Most children considered “troubled” came from problematic families, many from single-parent homes or homes where the parents were unfit.
After the apocalypse, a small number of students escaped with their families but most without families, or those who did not want to return to their original homes, stayed behind.
Having lived together for a few years, the relationships between these students had become quite deep, with some even considering each other as a family through life and dead situation.
The words of the female student resonated with many of them.
“w.a.n.g Yao is right. While the adults abandoned us during apocalypse, we relied on each other to survived till today. They are not just our companions. They are our family!”
“That’s right. They’re not dead yet…”
“Maybe we can find a way to treat them!”
w.a.n.g Yao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone agreed with her.” Let’s try calling their names first. Can we awaken their memories and make them regain their rationality?”
The students scattered and went to various buildings, shouting loudly.
“Gou Dan, can you hear me?”
“Brother Qiang, I brought your favorite fish…”
“NaNa, take a closer look. It’s me…”
No matter how much they shouted, they could not get an effective response.
The zombies in the building kept scratching the bulletproof gla.s.s with their claws.
“It’s useless…”
“I can’t wake him up!”
“If there are people from the Reed Group, they might know what to do…”
After a series of attempts, the people gathered together again.
“It’s all my fault. If I had tied them up in advance, He might not have infected so many…”
Huang Zheng Yi looked around and felt guilty.
” Brother Yi, Don’t blame yourselves for this…”
“Brother Yi, as long as we are still alive, there’s still room for redemption…”
” But how?!”
“I don’t know.” w.a.n.g Yao pondered for a moment, “My idea is to bring them to the place with the deepest memories. Perhaps they can…”
” The most memorable place?!”
” For example, Gou Dan and Mao Mao, there should be something that you remember the most, right?”
Mao Mao’s face turned red when she heard that.” It should be on the rooftop of the dormitory. He confessed his love to me there…”
“Every time we have any troubles, we will sit on the rooftop and watch the stars together…”
“Very good!”
w.a.n.g Yao was overjoyed.” Let’s try this. Let’s get Gou Dan to the roof of the dormitory and let Mao Mao talk about the past. Maybe we can succeed!”
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that.
” But Gou Dan is crazy now. He’s locked up in the room. How can we lure him to the roof of the dormitory without risking any of you here?”
“Yeah, there are more than ten people locked up with Gou Dan…”
“We can tie them up with ropes…”
“What if they bite you?”
“Then think of a way not to let them bite us!”
Huang Zheng Yi finally voiced his thought.” Listen up, everyone. My idea is for two people to held the hands, one person to grab the head, and the other person to get on the rope. This way, we only need four people to control one person…”
“Also, you can stuff a towel in their mouths to prevent them from biting people…”
“Alright, let’s do that!”
Everyone discussed for a while and soon split up. Those who looked for ropes and those who looked for towels.
After about half an hour, all the props were ready.
Huang Zheng Yi split himself into groups of four, and the rest of the non-combatants retreated to a safe place.
“Get ready, Shi Zi. you open the door. The first group will go first…”
Just as the Combat Team was about to open the door, the sound of a few cars suddenly came from afar.
” Wait, what’s that sound?!”
Huang Zheng Yi was shocked and quickly stopped everyone.
Everyone perked up their ears and heard the sound of a car.
“Quick, Combat Team, get your guns!”
At this moment, the members of the combat team threw down the ropes and pick up the guns that were placed at the side.
“Find cover…”
They could only hide on both sides of the teaching building and waited for the incoming cars..
