On the third floor of the shopping mall, the cold wind was sharp and harsh.
Raindrops as big as soybeans hit the man's face from the broken window.
The man wearing gold-rimmed glasses subconsciously wiped the rain off his face, and then held on to the crooked lenses.
"Brother Wang! Outside! Outside!"
The thunder flashed away, illuminating his frightened eyes.
"What's the fuss about!?"
Wang Teng impatiently dropped the large bag of biscuits in his hand and ran to the broken window in a few steps. The dark red dried blood on the floor became brighter after being washed away by the rain.
He followed the man with glasses and stuck his head out, looking in the direction of his finger.
After seeing it clearly, I couldn't believe it.
In the ground parking lot in the distance, densely packed zombies were crowded together. The tireless dead seemed to be surrounding something, piling up one layer after another until they formed a small mountain.
The bus that Lin An and others were on was originally empty, and the entire open space in front of the shopping mall was crawling with zombies with broken arms and legs.
"These zombies..."
"That's where he should have jumped!"
The bespectacled man gestured to the window in front of him. The large glass curtain wall installed in the mall for beauty was broken every few meters. The glass shards remaining on the ground indicated that it was just now.
"His..."
Wang Teng looked around and was a little surprised when he looked at the mountain of corpses in the distance.
"No wonder we haven't encountered a zombie so far."
"You're so emotional that you're going to eat that group of people?"
The mall was very big, and he originally thought that these zombies were just attracted by the sound at the gate on the first floor and gathered at the location closest to the gate on each floor.
After all, these zombies without the ability to think will only instinctively look for the shortest path instead of knowing how to take detours.
"Don't worry about them. I think that group of people have almost eaten the corpses. After finishing these, take a few people upstairs quickly!"
Although he didn't know why the group of outsiders were so attracted to zombies, he didn't intend to explore it.
There are obviously awakened ones in the outsider team, and it is normal for them to have some special skills.
"Brother Wang, do we still want to go up!?"
He wiped the rain off his face with some panic. He always felt that the recent rain had a burning sensation on his body.
The sudden change of weather, the inexplicable accumulation of corpses, and the darkness inside the mall.
Instinctively, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Nonsense, are we going to continue to support you bunch of losers!?"
"Call those two girls over, let's go upstairs immediately!"
A trace of unbearability flashed in the bespectacled man's eyes when he heard this, but his compassion was only momentary. He knew Wang Teng's methods.
If he ever dares to disobey Wang Teng, the fate of the two girls will be his fate.
...
"Da da da-"
The sound of leather shoes on the floor was a bit abrupt.
"Huang Ya! Zhang Shengnan!"
The man with glasses shouted their names at the top of his lungs, and it was hard to see clearly in the dim mall.
This was the former frozen seafood area, and two girls were sent here to look for dried seafood.
"Why is no one responding!?"
A trace of doubt flashed through the bespectacled man's mind, and he ran over in a few steps.
Dry goods area, no.
Packaged food section, no.
After a cursory search, they were nowhere to be seen.
The lightning that exploded from time to time always startled him.
The remaining pity for the two people in my heart was also exhausted in the process of searching. If these two people really ran away, he would be the one taken to the fourth floor!
Damn it, where did he go?
He turned around anxiously and looked around, and finally, taking advantage of the flash of lightning outside the window, he vaguely saw the two people squatting in the seafood area.
"You're mute, aren't you!?"
"Don't you know I'm calling you!?"
"Didn't Brother Wang ask you to get some dry goods? What are you doing here!"
After the apocalypse broke out, most of the fish and shrimp in the seafood area where there was a power outage had died.
The air in the entire area was filled with a strong and disgusting rancid smell.
Resisting the nausea in his heart, he hurriedly walked through the fish cabinet.
The two women squatted on the ground motionless, their hair hanging behind their backs being blown up by the strong wind that blew in from time to time.
"Creak-Creak"
The sound of teeth gnawing at bones was masked by the howling wind.
"I'm calling you! Did you hear me?"
Filled with resentment, he pinched his nose and angrily ran behind the two of them, then slapped Zhang Shengnan hard on the head with his right hand.
"You damn girl, come with me! Brother Wang is calling you!"
