Chapter 88: Killed by me!

  When everyone arrived at the scene, Wu Xiaotian called over that section of Yue and introduced him to the two people who had just been rescued.

  "This is Zhao Xinyu, a good brother in my university dormitory." After finishing, pointing to Li Xinjiao who was still panting, Wu Xiaotian continued to introduce: "This is Zhao Xinyu's wife."

  Duan Yue heard that Wu Xiaotian would nod to the person every time he introduced someone, so when Wu Xiaotian was about to introduce him, he interrupted and said: "My name is Duan Yue, I'm Wu Xiaotian's brother, I hope we can get along well in the future."

  Under the strong pressure, Zhao Xinyu, panting, said to Duan Yue: "Hehe, Wu Xiaotian and Du Ziteng have mentioned you many times. It's nice to finally meet you in person."

  "Are they talking bad about me behind my back?"

  Duan Yue usually wouldn't joke around with people he had just met, due to his distrustful nature. However, Duan Yue trusted Wu Xiaotian's way of handling things, which is why he would joke around with Zhao Xinyu, and Zhao Xinyu's reason was the same as Duan Yue's - they both trusted Wu Xiaotian.

  Now Wu Xiaotian is getting depressed again, because Duan Yue and Zhao Xinyu are chatting together, and Liu Ting and Li Xinjiao are also standing on one side chatting enthusiastically, leaving him alone standing aside.

  "Ahhhroo!"

  The wailing of the zombies interrupted their conversation, and Wu Xiaotian also composed himself and said to everyone: "Sister, Liu Ting, you all go into the carriage, and also take care of Auntie, while we men go into the driver's cabin."

  Liu Ting heard the arrangement and directly pulled Li Xinjiao into the carriage, while Wu Xiaotian and others climbed onto the driver's cab.

  The dump truck was driving on the road again, its loud rumbling sound breaking the city's silence.

  A faint wisp of smoke drifted out from the car window, and the three people in the driver's cabin were puffing away, the scarlet tips of their cigarettes flashing on and off as if the tobacco could ease the pressure in their hearts.

  "Xiao Yu, how did you end up in Spring City?"

  Wu Xiaotian's words broke the silence in the driver's cabin, and Zhao Xinyu threw out his cigarette butt after hearing Wu Xiaotian's question, beginning to recount their experiences in the post-apocalyptic world.

  "We came to Spring City to visit my wife's parents, because Xiao Qiao is pregnant and we wanted to make the old folks happy too. But just as we arrived in Spring City, this damned apocalypse broke out. Luckily, we were all in the car at the time, so we narrowly escaped disaster."

  He lit a new cigarette, took a deep drag, and then continued: "At that time, the traffic was instantly paralyzed. Out-of-control vehicles, screaming crowds running wildly, and intense explosions... I watched as many people were run over by out-of-control cars! Not long after, some of those who had been run over slowly got up, and at first, I thought they were lucky to be alive. But then I realized that they had all turned into zombies. Those zombies crazily chased the crowds, and if they caught up to a living person, they would devour them alive. The scene before my eyes almost drove me mad, but fortunately, she was by my side, constantly comforting me!"

  Both of them patted Zhao Xin Yu's trembling shoulder and said "thank you" to the two, after which Zhao Xin Yu continued: "I and Xiao Qiao escaped from the dirt road by car, but when we arrived at my father-in-law and mother-in-law's house, we found that they had also become zombies. They almost ate me and Xiao Qiao, fortunately we ran fast!"

  Wu Xiaotian could see that Zhao Xinyu was still trembling in the narrative, and comforted him by saying: "Everything is over, we are all alive now, aren't we!"

  After hearing Wu Xiaotian's words, Zhao Xinyu smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, we are still alive, but not living well."

  "So, how have you been spending these three months?"

  Duan Yue's words were followed by Zhao Xinyu, who briefly described their experiences over the past few months.

  "When I and Xiao Qiao were constantly searching for a safe place in this doomsday, until I met survivors who were also looking for food after entering a supermarket. Those survivors were ferocious and had hot weapons in their hands. In the end, they took us in because I could drive but they couldn't. At that time, I still naively thought we were temporarily safe!"

  "What?"

  "At that time they took us to a construction site where there were many other survivors, and they took me to see their leader, a foreman."

  "How many survivors? How many?"

  Wu Xiaotian's question interrupted Zhao Xinyu's words, Wu Xiaotian really wanted to know how many survivors there were, after all Wu Xiaotian was a person, a social animal, if those people were worth saving, Wu Xiaotian would go take a look.

  "There were over twenty people when I went, with males making up the majority."

  Zhao Xinyu's answer made Wu Xiaotian secretly delighted, after all, more than 20 people in the end of the world was not a small number.

  "Xiao Tian, are you going to rescue them?"

  "If possible, I will go."

  "Never mind!"

  "Why?" Wu Xiaotian asked Zhao Xinyu in confusion.

  "Because except for me and Xiao Qiao, everyone else is dead!"

  "Is he dead?"

  "Yes, he's dead, I killed him!"

  Duan Yue looked at Zhao Xinyu in disbelief, looking at this man who was over 1.7 meters tall, wearing a tailored suit, although the clothes were stained and his black hair was greasy, but the high nose with black-framed glasses and the handsome face couldn't hide his elegant temperament, Duan Yue really couldn't believe that Zhao Xinyu could say he had killed someone with an unchanged expression.

  On the other hand, Wu Xiaotian looked at Zhao Xinyu with trust, because he believed that Zhao Xinyu had his reasons.

  Seeing Wu Xiaotian's gaze, Zhao Xinyu smiled wryly and continued to narrate: "I drove those survivors around, while Xiao Qiao stayed in the base to cook for them. It was peaceful for about a month. During that month, whenever I returned with some scavenged supplies, I would find that some people were missing. At first, I found it strange, so I asked them where those people had gone. Some said they were eaten by zombies, while others said they died of illness. Although I didn't believe it, there was nothing I could do. All I could do was continue driving for them. But one day, when I returned from scavenging and was about to rest, I heard a scream coming from the room. I rushed over and found that the foreman had broken into our room and was trying to rape Xiao Qiao!"

  He fiercely broke the cigarette in his hand and took a deep breath, then Zhao Xinyu continued: "I rushed into the room, knocked out the contractor who hadn't reacted yet, and tied him up with several ropes!"
