Chapter 648: Bao Xiaoguo the Soldier
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Qiao followed behind the soldier who carried the virus. Meanwhile, the people who chased behind him turned and turned, soon entering another pa.s.sage.
Through the pa.s.sage, they went into a large room which was filled with sealed cubicles. Lying inside those cubicles were motionless zombies. Lin Qiao guessed that those cubicles were added with tranquilizers and cold air to suppress the zombie virus.
The room was all quiet. Except for those cubicles, nothing could be seen.
“He’s hiding here! Puppy Bao, we know you’re in here. Just come out. Don’t be silly! Have you forgotten about your sister? Do you think that we don’t know? You’re hiding pretty well though!” Those people came into the room but didn’t seem to be panicking as they blocked the door and yelled confidently.
“Yeah, don’t do stupid things. You may not be afraid of death, but what about your sister?” Another man yelled at the room as well.
Lin Qiao stayed near those people as she listened to their words and read their minds expressionlessly.
In the army, some people never fit in the group. They always looked solitary and unfriendly, so people might think that they were too proud to make friends. Some might grow discontented about them, and over time, the situation could go worse.
So at last, the people would find excuses to bring them trouble.
After the apocalypse, the world was no longer peaceful. More and more evil and dark things happened. Those people before Lin Qiao never liked that soldier whom they called Puppy Bao. That was the reason why they bullied him together.
But now, it seemed that the soldier had exploded under the long-term oppression.
“If you dare to touch my sister, I’ll kill all of you!” A deep and cold voice was heard from a corner, containing a strong hatred and intention of killing in it.
“Ah, you’re coming out! We’ve been telling you not to run about, but you wouldn’t listen. You’re forcing us to play our trump card, aren’t you?” A man responded with a sneer, seeming to be completely clueless about the soldier’s threat and his hatred.
“Hehe, you’re going to die anyway. Do you wanna kill us before you die? We’re not going to h.e.l.l with you. You can go by yourself. Don’t worry, if you give us the grenade, your sister will stay alive.” Those people were all wearing sarcastic looks, watching the soldier who was slowly walking out from a corner on the other side of the room.
Hearing what they said, the soldier immediately lost his fierce vibe. He stared at them, eyes showing despair, hatred, sadness…
Clearly, he had given up. He gave up surprisingly soon.
Lin Qiao crossed her arms before her chest and expressionlessly leaned against the door behind those people.
The young soldier who was called Puppy Bao bit his lip and slightly lowered his head as he stood on the other side of the room motionlessly. The group of people by the door glanced at each other and gave each other an eye signal. After that, they began approaching the soldier slowly.
“Xiaoguo, calm down! We didn’t mean to get you killed. None of us knew that you were behind us, neither did we know that a level-three zombie was hiding there! You can’t blame us for that, can you?” said one of the group.
Lin Qiao clearly knew that he was lying.
“That’s right, that’s right. We didn’t know that you were behind us, and we didn’t know that a zombie was there. We thought you had gone up! You really shouldn’t blame us. Besides, if you blow this place up and release all these zombies, this place will be attacked by the automatic alarm system of the base. Our lives mean nothing, but what about your sister? She’s only twelve years old, right? How is she supposed to survive without your protection?”
Lin Qiao pressed her lips together. Those sc.u.ms always bullied the soldier because they felt that he was a pushover. Now, they threatened him with his weakness. Sc.u.ms like that could really be found everywhere.
Currently, those people pointed their guns at the soldier while saying those comforting words. But on the inside, they were all cursing.
The young soldier called Bao Xiaoguo had been treated like a slave by those people. They sometimes even raped him in turn. No person could live with that kind of abuse, not to mention a young man.
He endured that because he needed to take care of his sister. But earlier today, after the zombies kept in this place were released for the show, one level-three zombie was still hiding in an area which was supposed to be empty. Those people had known about it, so they told Bao Xiaoguo to get into that area first.
As a result, he was attacked by that zombie. He reacted timely and fought the zombie, eventually shooting it to death. However, the zombie still left a scratch on him.
He was clearly aware of what the scratch meant: he would die and then become a zombie. Knowing that he was going to die, the hatred that had been acc.u.mulating in his heart immediately exploded.
He wanted to die together with the people in this place!
If they didn’t send him into that area, how would he be attacked by the zombie and infected by the virus? Who would be taking care of his sister after he died?
It was all their fault!
But now, he learned that those people had known about his sister. If he failed to kill them all, his sister would be in danger.
“Just relax and turn into a zombie. Don’t worry! As long as you do what we say, we won’t let your sister die of starvation.” While trying to persuade him, those people got closer and closer to him.
Bao Xiaoguo smiled a sarcastic smile which was toned with sadness. He still made no move, and only let those people come closer and closer.
He surely didn’t believe that those people would be nice to his sister. However, he did believe that if he kept fighting back, his sister might be in danger.
Seeing Bao Xiaoguo stay motionless, the few people glanced at each other. They already knew that he had given up on fighting back. Now, as long as they put a bullet into his head, he would die and then wake up as a zombie.
As those people started to press the triggers of their guns, they suddenly lost their sights.
“What’s going on!”
“What… is this?”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“I can’t see…” Bang! Bang!
Hearing a series of screams and disordered gunshots, Bao Xiaoguo raised his head to look at those people with confusion. He saw nothing but a cloud of dark mist. Those people were wrapped in the dark mist, and the bullets were flying aimlessly.
