"Other survivors?"

Chongzi looked at Brother Xiang, puzzled.

"Is this kind of alarm device something that little girl could think of?" Brother Xiang carefully gripped the fire axe, then took out scissors to cut the line.

Chongzi laughed: "Brother Xiang, you really can't say that. That girl is a shooter game streamer. She chats with us usually and has learned quite a few shady tricks. This is all child's play!"

"Like that? Fine, whatever, if there are others, it doesn't matter, we'll rob them all together! Come, do it."

Brother Xiang started moving things very indifferently.

"Brother Su?"

Zheng Xin saw Zhang Su staring blankly with a chopstick of noodles in his mouth and waved in front of him.

Zhong Xiaoshan looked at the strange Zhang Su with worry and whispered: "Brother Su, are you under too much pressure? Get a good sleep after eating."

Although the two now had some combat power, their biggest reliance was still Zhang Su, and they were very afraid of Zhang Su having an accident.

Zhang Su, whose eyes were hollow, suddenly regained focus. He slurped the noodles into his mouth and said vaguely: "No time to sleep, guests have arrived!"

"Guests?"

The strange words made the two women even more confused.

"Didn't you hear the alarm device ringing?" Zhang Su asked deliberately.

Zheng Xin and Zhong Xiaoshan looked at each other in surprise and shook their heads together: "No."

"So you two have poor vigilance!"

Thump.

Just as Zhang Su's voice fell, a sound of heavy objects falling came from outside.

"This is..." Zheng Xin turned her head to look at the door, wearing a solemn expression: "The dressing table blocking the stairs was pushed over?"

"Definitely!"

Zhong Xiaoshan tightened her expression, hurriedly put down her chopsticks, turned around, and picked up the iron wrench from the ground, looking ready for battle.

Zheng Xin wasn't slow either. She grabbed the baseball bat leaning against the wall and asked Zhang Su with her eyes, meaning, what should we do next.

Zhang Su raised his hand to signal the two not to be anxious first, then whispered: "Not zombies, it's people. Act according to circumstances!"

He didn't tell Zheng Xin and Zhong Xiaoshan the news he heard, wanting to see their reaction.

Zheng Xin was very curious why Zhang Su knew it was people, guessing it was judged from the movement. She didn't dwell on it either and followed Zhang Su to behind the door quietly.

"Damn, Chongzi, I feel something is wrong!"

Brother Xiang looked back at the heavy sofa and dressing table and said: "Even if you say that girl knows a lot of messy things, can these things be moved by a little girl?"

Chongzi scratched his head. The sofa and dressing table in front of them were a bit heavy for them who had been hungry for two days, let alone a little girl, even if she was full, it wouldn't work...

"Maybe... eh, Brother Xiang, look, there are traces of making a fire on it, and unused wooden boards. There are indeed people here, right, it must be so. These obstacles were made by the survivors upstairs!"

Chongzi gave a reason he considered very reasonable.

Brother Xiang walked between the eighth and ninth floors, picked up the wooden board to look at it, and curled his lips: "Whatever, go to the little girl's house first!"

Making up his mind, the two came to the eighth floor. Pushing open the security door, they saw the door of 801.

Brother Xiang tightened the fire axe in his hand and gave Chongzi a wink, signaling him to knock on the door.

Chongzi didn't dare to disobey Brother Xiang's meaning. Carrying the crowbar, he walked into the floor carefully, looked around, didn't find anything unusual, and then walked to the door of 801 on tiptoe.

Thump, thump, thump.

Three dull knocking sounds rang out.

Zhang Su, who was behind the peephole, curled his lips. Seeing Chongzi trying his best to make a friendly expression across the door made him feel funny.

Zheng Xin and Zhong Xiaoshan were quiet, their eyes fixed on Zhang Su, waiting for his orders.

"Yu Maomao, are you home? I'm your fan, here to save you!"

Seeing no response to the knocking, Chongzi felt slightly relieved, at least proving there were no zombies in the room, and tentatively shouted at the door.

Zhang Su's cheeks puffed up, almost laughing out loud. He turned his head and looked at Zheng Xin with a playful gaze, knowing that Yu Maomao must be her internet name, but this was too childish.

Zheng Xin naturally knew what Zhang Su was laughing at. Even though they were so nervous, she was so ashamed and angry that her face turned red. And she was extremely surprised, how could a fan know her address, and even come to save her?

Zhong Xiaoshan's lips pursed back and forth, obviously wanting to laugh too.

"What's so funny, humph, look at how loyal my fans are, even after the zombie outbreak, they know to come save me!"

Zheng Xin glared at Zhang Su, expressing her dissatisfaction in a very, very low voice.

Which knew, Chongzi outside was pressing his ear against the door and actually heard a little sound, his face showing joy: "Yu Maomao, is it you? It's great you're okay. I'm 'Flying into the Sky', 'Flying into the Sky' who sent you gifts a few days ago. I came to see you, are you okay?"

The sincere tone warmed the heart. If Zhang Su hadn't known in advance that this guy had bad intentions, he would have really believed this ghost talk.

Originally thinking of directly solving the two guys with bad intentions, but after a second thought, a plan came to mind.

Zhang Su greeted Zheng Xin to look outside.

"Yu Maomao, do you still have food and drink? I brought quite a few things for you. Are you there? Say something, oh."

Chongzi said in an extremely gentle voice.

After Zheng Xin looked outside, Zhang Su greeted the two to walk away from the door and whispered: "This guy's mouth is smeared with honey, doesn't look like a good person!"

Zheng Xin was very conflicted: "But... I don't think he looks like he's lying, and he is indeed a fan in our residential area. But I remember I told fans I lived in Building 10, and the express delivery was also written as Building 10. I don't know how he found it."

Zheng Xin still had basic safety awareness. Even if the internet was developed now and her residence in Shengqin Garden was found out, she had hidden her real name and address.

"Then do you think there's a need to open the door?"

Zhang Su didn't care about the previous things. In short, someone had found them now, and he didn't give advice, just responsible for guiding on the side.

Zheng Xin became more and more indecisive in her heart, subconsciously looked at Zhang Su and Zhong Xiaoshan, and said hesitantly: "How about... open the door and meet, I see he really brought a big bag of things."

"Then aren't you afraid of being taken advantage of as soon as you open the door?"

Zhang Su asked.

"You're here, and I'm not afraid... fine, fine, fine, then I won't open it."

Obviously, Zheng Xin's problem of having no opinion had flared up again.

"Now the person is at the door, do you open it or not? Or just pretend not to be there?"

Zhang Su continued to guide.

Open the door, don't open the door to communicate, pretend not to be there, another way of handling it appeared, which made Zheng Xin, who was already conflicted, even more confused.

"Then how about we wait and see what he does next?"

Zhong Xiaoshan added fuel to the fire on the side, saying another way of handling it.

Zheng Xin nodded vigorously: "Right, I think it's good to see what he does next. This way, we won't kill a good person by mistake, and we won't fall into a bad guy's trap!"

Zhang Su grinned and didn't say much. He could see that Zheng Xin still had the way of dealing with things from the peaceful and prosperous age, otherwise she wouldn't be so conflicted. He decided to take this opportunity to give Zheng Xin a good lesson.
