Chapter 41: Challenge completed
A once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity.
Watching the zombies run past his eyes, the man only felt a warm current surging through his whole body. That was a physiological reaction caused by being too excited and agitated, and his body burst out with unprecedented strength!
"Wait, wait, it's not time yet!"
The man suppressed his restless, wildly beating heart, waiting for those zombies with stiff legs and slow movements to pass in front of him.
"Quick, quick, go!"
After the zombies between Building 3 and Building 4 were basically lured away, the man moved like a rabbit, climbing out of the narrow crevice with his hands and feet. Feeling the sunlight shining on his body again, his heart was full of the happiness of surviving a disaster.
There was no time to stay. He put the gun on his back and ran wildly.
During the time he was trapped, he had long thought about how to go after escaping.
Running toward the target direction, the man didn't forget to look up, wanting to see who exactly made the sound to lure the zombies away. Soon, two dark heads on the roof came into view.
"Is it them?"
The man didn't stop his feet, only having time to give a shallow salute to the two people on the roof.
Zhang Su narrowed his eyes and waved at the running man.
"Is he a SWAT officer!?"
Zheng Xin was surprised.
The man who escaped was covered in mud and dust, and his clothes and pants were damaged to a certain extent, but one could still identify his identity from the two large Chinese characters on his back.
"Should be a survivor from that night. That thing on his shoulder is a good item!"
Zhang Su looked at the assault rifle slung by the man with envy, extremely greedy. But after thinking about it, even if he had a gun, it would be useless. First, not to mention whether his own accuracy with a gun was reliable, the effect of the manic gunshot attracting zombies was three times more powerful than a loudspeaker.
During the conversation, the three saw the man climb onto the anti-theft window of the first floor of Unit 1, Building 4 in one step, and with a few leaps, he reached the second floor, his movements extremely agile, more than a level stronger than ordinary people!
Unfortunately, there was still an anti-theft window on the second floor, so he had to continue going up until he finally found an open window on the fourth floor!
Qin Ya turned into the room and let out a long breath inside the window. Only then did he have time to look at the roof of Building 3 seriously, only to find that the two were still standing on the roof without moving, their eyes fixed on him.
"Could it be that he specifically helped me lure the zombies away?"
Thinking of this, Qin Ya seriously saluted the roof of Building 3.
Soon, he received a return salute. He saw the other party's right hand gesture in a ruffian way beside his head, looking exactly like the style of a underworld boss meeting and greeting in a Hong Kong movie.
"Interesting!"
Qin Ya basically confirmed that the people on the opposite roof lured the zombies away just to help him escape. As for why they wanted to do this, he didn't know.
At the same time, Qin Ya also saw someone on the roof of Building 3 waving at him, with ecstasy on their face, as if they had seen a savior.
Sighing in his heart, facing the people who were waiting for rescue, he could only shake his head apologetically, feeling powerless.
Awoo.
Just at this moment, a zombie roar sounded behind Qin Ya. Knowing there was no time to delay, he turned around and hit the zombie with the butt of his gun, knocking it to the ground, then pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into the zombie's head cleanly.
Zhang Su withdrew his gaze, not worried about that SWAT officer at all. He could rush out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, so how could he be trapped by one or two zombies?
Turning his gaze to the zombies attracted by the old-fashioned phone, they rushed to pounce on it, one piling on top of another, one stepping on another. The dense zombies soon gathered into a ball.
The sturdy tape persisted tenaciously, lasting a full minute before being disintegrated. When the yellow tape and white foam flew in the air, the singing stopped. Even the sturdiest old-fashioned phone couldn't withstand the trampling of zombies.
"See? If I were trapped, you could also use this method to help me. If you were trapped, I would also find a way to save you!"
Zhang Su walked back to the stairwell and said to the two.
Zheng Xin and Zhong Xiaoshan nodded seriously. Seeing Zhang Su operate it, it was very simple, but if it were really them, they might not be able to complete this task smoothly. Some things had to be practiced.
"Let's go, let's go back!"
"Big brother!"
Zhang Su greeted the two to go home, but suddenly heard someone shouting on the opposite roof. Turning his head, it was exactly that man in the hoodie.
He made a "shh" gesture to the man, then waved his hand again, meaning, goodbye to you.
"Don't, don't go, big brother, can you come and save us? Big brother..."
Seeing the other party not stopping, Tian Fan grabbed the railing and shouted anxiously: "Big brother, look, the zombies downstairs have all been lured away. Please, do a good deed and help us lure the zombies in Unit 1 away, okay?"
Due to the angle of view, he completely didn't know that Zhang Su luring the zombies away was to help a SWAT officer. He shouted on his own: "I have quite a few supplies at home. Help me, and I'll share half of the supplies with you, damn, don't go..."
The man kept shouting, but watched the three people on the opposite roof walk into the building and close the door, not intending to stay at all.
"They... how could they be like this."
Yu Nuo looked at the closed door blankly, as if her hope had been erased. She slumped to the ground softly, and her eyes turned red instantly.
Tian Fan punched the wall heavily, squatted on the ground in annoyance, a trace of despair in his eyes.
The three Zhang Su returned home, none of them mentioning the man who asked for help. Obviously, the three had formed a certain tacit understanding, knowing what things could be done and what things could not!
"Brother Su, did you know long ago that a SWAT officer was trapped there?"
Zheng Xin scratched her slightly itchy head and asked.
"Ah? No, he was just lucky."
Zhang Su was thinking about the reward, obviously distracted. He pointed to the bathroom and said: "I'm going to relieve myself!"
After saying that, he walked toward the bathroom.
Seeing Zhang Su leave, Zheng Xin and Zhong Xiaoshan ran to the window and looked at the roof of Building 4 in unison.
"Sister Xin, do you think the two of them can escape?"
Zhong Xiaoshan asked in a low voice.
Zheng Xin bit her lip and shook her head: "I feel it's very difficult... because compared to us, they lack the most important thing!"
"What is it?" Zhong Xiaoshan asked curiously.
"The courage to fight for one's life... When I killed a zombie for the first time, my heart was about to jump out of my mouth. If Brother Su hadn't taken me, I think I would have been cold!"
Zheng Xin whispered.
In the face of fear and disaster, asking others for help is not wrong, but if one only relies on asking for help and forgets to save oneself, that would be very sad.
Zhang Su walked quickly into the bathroom. As expected, a line of subtitles popped up in his mind.
【Help the hider lure away the zombies within three hours. Difficulty: A. Completed, time taken 01:05:22】
【Reward: Hearing enhancement】
The subtitles ended. Zhang Su didn't have any special feelings, but a whispering female voice rang in his ears.
"If Brother Su hadn't taken me, I think I would have been cold!"
"Yeah, my life was also saved by Brother Su. Although I can't help Brother Su much now, I must not hold Brother Su back."
"Right, time to train!"
The simple conversation ended. Zhang Su smiled with satisfaction and thought to himself: "The two guys are quite sensible!"
