Li Chang walked out of the convenience store with the axe in his hand and walked to the bathroom. He was about to call Hao Jian, but her heard the door behind him open, and Hao Jian hooked her shoulders and lightly said, “There’s food in it.”

Lian Ru Ning’s expression did not change and raised her hand to support Hao Jian’s waist. There was a hyena approaching so she didn’t have time to admire Hao Jian’s thin waist. She asked, “Are you having dysmenorrhea?”

Hao Jian nodded, and Lian Ru Ning replied, “Then go back and rest!”

Li Chang paused, his eyes narrowed slightly and slowed down his pace.

“Brother Li, why did you come out?” Lian Ru Ning looked around nervously, “Is there anything unusual?”

Li Chang smiled slightly, “No. You guys didn’t come back after a long time so I was worried about you and came out. Is she okay?”

“It’s that time of the month, Brother Li stop asking.”

Li Chang said, “Oh” and went back to the convenience store with them. Seeing that Hao Jian seemed uncomfortable, Xin Ting came over to care for her. Li Ge gave Hao Jian a bottle of water and said, “If you feel uncomfortable, take a drink!”

Lian Ru Ning said, “She shouldn’t drink cold water for now.”

Liu Shu also knew what was going on, so she said her first sentence after all this time, “There’s an electric kettle here, let me boil you some water!”

“Is there still electricity here?”

“Yes!”

As soon as Liu Shu left, the three-year-old boy was about to make trouble and Old Lady Li hurriedly pulled him to coax, “Don’t cry or yell, otherwise the zombies will come to catch you!”

“Mom, that’s a zombie!” Li Ge corrected her while tearing the dried meat in his hand into strips before handing them to Old Lady Li.

Xin Ting said, “Second Brother Li, you’re so filial!”

Li Ge smiled, “This is my biological mother. My father is gone. Neither I nor my brother can leave her alone.”

He glanced at Hao Jian who was lying on the ground and asked, “Do you want to eat something first?”

Hao Jian slightly opened her eyelids and weakly said, “No, no appetite.”

Li Chang pursed his lips, “Does it really hurt?”

“You men don’t understand. If it hurts, you really lose your strength that you just want to faint.” Xin Ting said, Lian Ru Ning also echoes, and Liu Shu seemed to feel the same.

Seeing that they were all talking, Li Chang and Li Ge didn’t say anything, but persuaded Lian Ru Ning to eat something. She also used the excuse to go to the bathroom, but because Hao Jian and Xin Ting were both there, they didn’t doubt her anymore. But Li Chang still went with Lian Ru Ning.

Lian Ru Ning closed the bathroom door tightly. It wasn’t as messy as she imagined, but there were yellow stains on the bottom of the water pipe. There is a bucket inside with some mosquitoes flying over it.

She looked around inside, suspecting that she had heard it wrong, otherwise Hao Jian would never have said that there was food here. In fact, she asked her to come in and eat, right?

But soon she saw a rice ball in the exhaust fan. After she removed the cover, she was worried that Li Chang would hear it, so she turned on the tap to cover up the sounds of her eating.

However, where did Hao Jian get the rice ball? Is it possible that she secretly picked it up in the convenience store just now?

She didn’t think so much, this rice ball is bigger than her palm is enough to fill her stomach. She will find an excuse to push away the suspicious food later. As for Xin Ting, Hao Jian said that their target is her so they should not attack Xin Ting who has eaten their food for the time being.

This day is probably one of the most memorable moments in her life. After all, this is her first time to eat in the bathroom in her life. She may have nightmares about it in the future!

Li Chang wasn’t suspicious when Lian Ru Ning hadn’t come out for a long time. After all, he had also seen a woman who hadn’t come out after entering the toilet for half an hour, but he still mumbled, “Women take too long in the bathroom!”

when he finished muttering, Lian Ru Ning had eaten the rice ball and came out. She rinsed her mouth with water before she went out. but Li Chang didn’t notice anything strange.

“There are zombies, let’s go back!” Li Chang saw a few zombies gather from a hundred meters away. He was so scared that he quickly pulled Lian Ru Ning and returned to the convenience store.

“What’s the matter?” Li Ge hurriedly asked, who got anxious by their actions.

“Zombies are coming around again.” Li Chang was a little anxious.

Lian Ru Ning took the opportunity to say, “Why don’t we run away before the zombies chase us?”

Li Chang retorted without thinking, “No!”

Lian Ru Ning deliberately looked at them suspiciously, “Then, let’s calm down and exchange what we learned about the zombies?”

“Didn’t you face them just now?” Li Ge was confused.

Lian Ru Ning sat with her legs crossed next to Hao Jian, secretly rolled her eyes, and said, “I just asked about the outside situation. With so many of us trapped in here, we have to do well if we want to be safe. We need to get to know the zombies, and then formulate countermeasures, otherwise we’ll just wait for death here, right?”

Li Chang and Li Ge exchanged glances, Li Ge nodded, “You’re right, how much do you know?”

Lian Ru Ning thought that this person wasn’t stupid, he was smart. He knew that getting her to talk first was the right move.

Lian Ru Ning didn’t care and answered, “What do these zombies use to find living things is something we don’t understand yet. For example, before we alarm them, they will only wander aimlessly, but they will come closer and closer to us. They won’t aim directly at us until they make a move.”

“So hiding here is not a long-term solution.” Hao Jian also added weakly,

After listening to them, Li Ge frowned and started thinking, but Li Chang smiled, “You college students have good brains!”

Li Ge ignored his brother and asked, “You have beaten a lot of zombies on the way here, have you discovered any of their weaknesses?”

“When I watched TV, it said that their weakness lies in their brains so I killed two zombies along the way by attacking their brains. Also, don’t get scratched or bitten by them, or you will get infected.”

“It’s similar to what we know.” Li Ge said.

Lian Ru Ning suddenly slapped her thigh and said, “Oh, our weapons are still out there. If there are zombies coming to attack later, what should we do?”

“We’re here, what are you afraid of?!” Li Chang smiled again, but for Lian Ru Ning, his smile is very annoying!

If they had the courage to deal with zombies, they would not hide here. They’re here to blackmail.

Lian Ru Ning had seen through them, She was already half-believing Hao Jian’s words, but now, although Hao Jian was only a few years older than her, she understands them very well.

Thinking about this, Lian Ru Ning was a little confused. Why is it that even though life and death have come, these people still have the mind to do evil?

What Hao Jian said in the bathroom echoed in her ears,
‘Everyone has evil thought in their hearts, but they are usually restrained by morals and laws so they are hidden. Now that the law has lost its binding force, those evil thoughts will rise again and they will do things they didn’t dare to do but want to.’

Li Chang approached Lian Ru Ning and asked with a smile, “Little Sister Lian, do you have a boyfriend?”

The way Li Chang and Li Ge looked at Lian Ru Ning and Hao Jian has become obvious that even Xin Ting noticed something wrong.

Lian Ru Ning’s heartbeat accelerated sharply. She knew that Li Chang was about to stretch his claws. With this in mind, she must not let him see the strangeness, so she pretended to be said and said, “Yes, but I lost contact with him. I would have listened to him when he said not to attend summer camp if I knew.”

Li Chang pursed his lips and was about to say something, but Old Lady Li patted him, “Chang, don’t stay here, go and check outside!”

Li Chang wasn’t satisfied, but he had to listen to Old Lady Li’s words. He took his axe and went to the door with Li Ge to pay attention to the movements outside. Li Ge whispered to him, “Brother, take your time. They haven’t understood the current situation. After they know how good you are, they will take the initiative and give you a hug,”

What the brothers didn’t know was that, while they were muttering with each other, Lian Ru Ning was chatting with Old Lady Li.

Old Lady Li and her husband originally lived in the countryside, but Li Ge and his wife were busy with work and no one left to care for their children, so they moved here.

Originally, after her wife had an accident, they were going to move the family back to the countryside, but while they were with their family, chaos occurred. If they went back, they didn’t know how dangerous it would be, but if they didn’t, the nearby residential buildings are already besieged by zombies, and sooner or later they will run out of ammunition and food.

It happened that Li Chang wanted to come here to see if there was any food. After picking the lock, he felt that they could hide here, so he brought them over.

They have stayed here for almost three days. At the beginning, they also attracted zombies because of their children’s crying, but because of the movement caused by people passing by outside, they attracted most of the zombies away, and the rest were all killed by the Li brothers.

Before Hao Jian and the others came, they hid inside and never went out. The children also learned to behave and stopped making noises. If it weren’t for Hao Jian and her group, they might just lock themselves inside and never go out.

Old Lady Li whispered to Lian Ru Ning, “A-Chang has been working in the auto repair shop all the time, and the money is sent back to us elders for retirement, so that’s why he hasn’t found a girlfriend in his 30s. Ah, you see, it’s so dangerous outside. Why don’t you stay with us? A-Chang will protect you.”

Lian Ru Ning’s face went green, but she thought that Old Lady Li is a kind hearted person, but she was also a sly raccoon!

Xin Ting widened her eyes when she heard their attempts. She was about to speak when she saw the cold and clear eyes cast by Hao Jian.

Hao Jian is alright?!

Now Xin Ting has finally figured it out. It turns out that these people are really not good people, but she just let go of her guard!

Thinking of human traffickers who were abducting women and children, she became so angry and frightened that she shuddered all over.

What was more terrifying than the zombies outside are people who take advantage of the chaos!

“I don’t need protection from others, I can protect myself.”

Now that Old Lady Li has revealed it, Lian Ru Ning didn’t need to pretend to be ignorant anymore and made her attitude clear.

Hearing what was happening back there, Li Chang also knew what happened. He was a little embarrassed and a bit annoyed that his mother figured out what was in his mind.

Hao Jian spoke unhurriedly, “Listen to what I’m about to say. We won’t stay here for long. We should have left as soon as there were no zombies. Now that the zombies are here, it will be difficult to leave. Full of heat, lust, and desire, are you that thirsty? You actually still have the heart to think about these?”

Li Chang was irritated by her words that he was about to go over with his axe, but before he could, Hao Jian sat up and placed the blade of her Swiss army knife on Old Lady Li’s neck.
