The gunshots were getting denser and denser, endlessly.
Ming Shu got out of the car, leaning on the door. She waved at Zheng Ye and said, âGet in the car.â
âYou, you, you⌠you want to go with me?â Zheng Ye was surprised, but he shook his head. âNo, you wait here⌠wait and weâll⌠weâll come back very soon.â
âGet in the car,â Ming Shu repeated.
Somehow Zheng Ye was a little scared. He prepared to open the back door. But unexpectedly, Ming Shu pulled him back and he was stuffed into the driverâs seat. Then the car door was slammed closed with a peng sound.
âWatch my snacks in the car. If you lose any one of them, Iâll take your head.â
The car window slowly rose and was automatically closed.
Kacha.
The door locked.
Zheng Ye tried to open the door, but in vain.
âŚ
Ming Shu walked in the direction of the gunshots. The road was safe, and she didnât meet any zombies.
When did you become so kind? Are you going to save people?
Little Beastie rested on Ming Shuâs shoulder. It curiously poked her face with furry paws.
You were not such a nosy person.
âIâm happy and want to do some charity today, whatâs the big deal? Canât I be a good person?â As long as Iâm happy, I can even save the entire world, Ming Shu happily thought.
My master mustâve forgotten to take her medicine.
Little Beastie rolled its eyes. It followed along Ming Shuâs collar and climbed into her clothes, curling up into a ball. Just let her play by herself. I am going to sleep.
Captain Fan and the others were easy to locate. Ming Shu followed the gunshots to find them.
Looking around, the campus was also uniquely built. The buildings of each school were in a back-to-front style. Although Ming Shu could hear the gunshots, she couldnât see the sparks produced along with the shooting bullets.
Boom!
A heavy object fell to the ground. An unpleasant stench came out.
Ming Shu took a close look at it with the flashlight. The zombie that fell from the building was twisting and preparing to get up.
âDonât shoot, itâs a human,â someone shouted in a low voice from the dark.
Then another shout sounded.
âTurn off the flashlight!â
Footsteps came closer from the next corridor. Someone covered Ming Shuâs flashlight, and several shadows appeared in front of her.
Ming Shu released the flashlight. In the weak light among the darkness, she still formed a polite smile and said, âOkay, Iâll give it to you.â
The other party was obviously stunned.
âItâs youâŚâ Ning Le turned off the flashlight and said to the rest, âShe and I were a team. Sheâs a friend.â
âIâm not familiar with you. Donât spread rumors.â For my snacks, I canât be your friend, sorry.
Ming Shu took out another flashlight and turned it on to examine those people. They should all be students. There were three girls and five boys, including Ning Le, probably the survivors of Tengjiang University.
Tengjiang University was known as the cradle of geniuses, so these survivors must be some lucky dogs with both talent and good fortune.
âDonât use the flashlight.â The person who had just covered Ming Shuâs flashlight came forward again, but Ming Shu raised her hand high this time and protected her flashlight. Failing to grab the flashlight, the man was very angry, and he shouted angrily in a low voice, âIf you want to die, just die yourself, donât get us in trouble!â
âTurn off the flashlight.â
âYeah, turn it off.â
Ming Shu remained unmoved.
âCan you understand human words? Do not turn on the flashlight,â one of the girls couldnât help but say seriously.
âNing Le, tell your friend to turn off the flashlight.â
Ning Le looked at Ming Shu. âThereâs a crazy killer on campus. The light source will expose our position. Could you put away the flashlight first?â
Crazy killer?
Ming Shu looked all around using the flashlight. She didnât see Captain Fan and the mole man, so they werenât with them?
Tututu⌠Gunshots sounded again from further away.
âDonât waste time. Letâs go and see, maybe theyâre here to rescue us,â someone in the team said. âNing Le, if your friend doesnât listen to us, we wonât take her.â
Ming Shu spotted the person who just spoke with the flashlight. âCome on, donât think so highly of yourself. I didnât say Iâd walk with you.â
The man subconsciously reached out to block the light, and his face darkened. âWhatâs wrong with this girl?â
âItâs very dangerous to walk alone,â Ning Le said hurriedly. âYou should join us.â
Intuition told her that this girl was very powerful. If she could win her over, it would be very beneficial to her.
Clangâ
The sound of metal clanging came from one end of the corridor.
âHeâs coming.â The girlsâ voices trembled.
The students forgot Ming Shu all at once. They began to run away quickly.
Ming Shu turned the flashlight to the soundâs source. A muscular man appeared from around the corner. He dragged an axe in his hand, which was stained with blood, of zombies or humans was unclear.
His face was also stained with blood, and bore a crazy look. Seeing the students, he became even more excited and rushed over with the axe held high.
âRun!â Ning Le yelled at Ming Shu.
There was only one direction they could withdraw from now. Ming Shu had to follow this group.
They ran from one school building to another, with the crazy killer chasing after them closely.
âI⌠I canât do it. Iâm too tired.â
âI donât have any strength, either. I canât breathe.â
The two girls in the team lagged behind. The boys supported them and said anxiously, âNo, youâll be dead when he catches up.â
âI canât run any more, my legsâŚâ Girl A panted and began to complain, âI told you not to leave. You insisted. How can we beat that crazy killer?â
A genius of thought was not equal to a genius of physical strength.
âNing Le, didnât you say you have a way to kill him?â girl B suddenly asked Ning Le. âWe left because of you, you have to be responsible.â
Ning Le looked at Ming Shu, then frowned slightly. âLetâs find a place to hide first. Iâll think of a way.â
The crazy killer was invulnerable. He probably awakened some supernatural power.
Ordinary methods were not enough to deal with him.
A boy pointed at the corridor not far away. âWeâre near the laboratory. The door of the laboratory is the strongest in the school.â
âThen weâll go there first.â Ning Le nodded.
âRoar!â
As Ning Le just finished her words, a zombie suddenly rushed down from the nearby stairs. Ning Le was slammed to the ground. She held her hand against the zombieâs chin, preventing it from biting her.
The zombie struggled ferociously.
âAh!â The two girls screamed at the same time.
The boys responded quickly and stepped forward to help Ning Le kill the zombie.
Ning Le was caught off guard just now. Her heart rate accelerated a lot. She looked to the stairs where the zombie emerged from.
At this time, a person was standing on the stairs. She reached out with one hand, holding the zombie back with something. The zombieâs limbs were not struggling, which made it look like it wasâŚ
DeadâŚ
Ming Shu dropped her hand. The zombie rolled down from the stairs, falling just in front of Ning Le. Brains and blood streamed onto the ground.
The rest of the students were stunned. They didnât expect Ming Shu to be so powerful as to quietly kill a zombie.
In the distance, the laughter and running steps of the crazy killer sounded again.
He was getting closerâŚ
Ning Le narrowed her eyes a little and climbed up from the ground. âHurry.â
Several students swallowed simultaneously. Then they rushed in the direction of the laboratory together.
