Chapter 114: Survivors at the train station
"Tong Tong, your uncle has some meat here. Would you like to have some?"
On one side of the control room, several men were sharing the cooked meat around a flat frying pan. There was already a small pile of bones beside it, and a man was holding the pot and starting to drink the broth inside.
The reason why they were able to share these meals was because they were all fire-type power users, and the pot of meat had been cooked by their fire-type power users.
The little girl Tongtong smelled the scent and licked her lips.
"Tongtong, don't go, hold on for a while longer" The woman took her daughter's hand and shook her head.
"Oh, I said Sister Chen, this is cat meat, not rat meat. Zhiqiang kindly wants to share some with your daughter, but you still hate it!" said the man drinking soup.
"Yes, besides, even if it is made from mice, I would like to eat it now; it's better than starving to death."
The man was still reluctantly gnawing on the bones he had already eaten clean. The cat was simply too small; not enough for him. Individuals shared, and the remaining hundred or so people watched them eat.
"Didn't you hear that the rescuers are coming soon? The child has a weak spleen and stomach. If the stomach is ruined, the gain will not be worth the loss, and a piece of good meat will be wasted." Chen Guifang quickly explained. For some reason, she smelled the cooked meat.
The smell of meat doesn't smell good; rather, it makes my stomach feel nauseous. The train station is full of zombies, while the cat has come in from the outside. What if...
"Mom, I'm so hungry."
The little girl puckered her mouth angrily and wanted to cry; Chen Guifang was still comforting her at the side, while a young man on the other side wrapped the meat in his hand into a bag.
"Tianhao, why don't you eat it? You're the one who called the cat."
Qin Zhiqiang asked after seeing it from the side.
"I just ate a piece of compressed biscuit yesterday, let's eat it when I'm really hungry,"
Wu Tianhao said with a look of great treasure.
There weren't just a few people around who were drooling; more than a hundred of them had been trapped there for nearly ten days. During those ten days, apart from the fear brought by the zombies outside, the most terrible thing was hunger.
Before, I could find some food from everyone's backpacks or luggage, but now I can't find anything.
That is, this morning, a cat who didn't know where it came from slipped into the control room and was hit by Wu Tianhao. Only so few people could share some cat meat.
"Hey, there's no need to save, there are people outside here to save people, we can go on the road if we are full, hahaha"
Qin Zhiqiang and a few men laughed reassuringly. The feeling of having food in the belly was different. Listening to the voices outside, those who had come to rescue them must have reached the second floor.
...
On the second floor, the rescue team was temporarily resting in a slightly cleaner waiting hall. Everyone was tired, including Li Yanqi and Fu Ying's group.
At that time, Li Yanqi was standing in the corner with her back facing everyone. Although she was extremely tired, her expression was excited and exhilarated.
After clicking on the last 99 crystal nuclei, the status bar under her backpack showed 92%. There were still some unfinished crystal nuclei outside.
"How is it?"
Fu Ying and Gu Yao stood on either side of Li Yanqi, effectively shielding her from view. This made it seem like she was simply taking a break.
"92%"
Li Yanqi couldn't hide the joy in her voice.
"Wow, that's great, we're going to..."
Gu Yao covered her mouth, trying hard not to let her excitement show.
"Keep your voice down and avoid being seen by others."
Fu Ying said in a low voice, everyone looks super tired now, it would be too strange if the three of them were too excited.
To hide their inner excitement, the three of them began to dig up the unfinished crystal nucleus along the side of the waiting hall in front of everyone's surprised eyes.
"Aren't they tired...?" Jiang Hongchang murmured.
"Probably not tired," Chen Xiaochong replied after taking a few sips of water.
"Yan Qi, do you need any help?"
Li Xiaoqing came out and asked with a smile.
"Sister Xiaoqing, you can take a rest if you are tired, the three of us are used to digging this," Li Yanqi said.
"It doesn't matter. I used to stand in the operating room for more than ten hours at a time. Compared to that, this amount of activity is nothing."
Li Xiaoqing said while helping to dig, although she didn't know what they were digging for.
Li Yanqi smiled, but the next second she froze in place.
What happened in the blink of an eye in the control room full of living people on the third floor? Why did zombies suddenly appear, and why are their numbers continuing to increase?
Although the building they are currently in is the same as the train station, since the train station is quite large, there is still some distance between their current location and the control room of Sankou.
At this moment, although there was still a lingering smell of meat in the control room, the screams and roars had become chaotic.
Chen Guifang hugged her daughter and desperately pushed through the crowd. Just then, Qin Zhiqiang and the others who were sitting on the side of the control room suddenly fell to the ground and started twitching. Within a few minutes, those people had stopped breathing.
Just when everyone hadn't realized what had happened, the corpses of several people suddenly moved again, completing their transformation into zombies right before everyone's eyes. Then, they struggled to pounce on everyone.
There were screams, and in just a few minutes, six people had already been transformed into zombies. People who had never killed zombies hid one after another, but there were always people being bitten by the zombies.
The stench of blood spread throughout the room.
"Everyone, don't panic, zombies can be killed, hit their heads!!"
At this moment, Wu Tianhao stood behind and shouted.
"Yes, knock them out, don't just stand around and let yourself get bitten."
Somebody in the crowd shouted.
However, no one dared to rush to the front to fight off a few zombies, and two boys who looked like students were even pushed out.
"You are young and strong, fight with them!"
"Roar!"
The two boys were about to turn their heads to see who had pushed them when the zombies bit their necks in the next second.
However, the two didn't see clearly who had pushed them, but the audience from God's perspective saw it very clearly.
[It was the guy named Wu Haotian who pushed it! ]
[If I remember correctly, he asked those people to eat the cat meat just now.]
[Insidious]
[Let others kill the zombies while he is better off and stands behind].
[I knock! Don't stop me, I want to go in and beat him up! ]
[It is human nature to want to live, but it is a matter of character to push others out to die]
[…]
Just as the audience was filled with righteous indignation, the rescue team also arrived at the control room, and it was Zhanhao who led a few people to break through first.
After a few gunshots, several zombies fell. Unlike the joyful and fortunate survivors in the entire control room, Zhan Hao's face did not look very good.
Are more than a hundred people just waiting to be eaten by these less than ten zombies?!
These people could have saved themselves before they made their way there.
