Chapter 5: The Dilemma (I)

"Why don't you go to the elevator?" Wen Li was already too tired to go up this day, and she really didn't want to climb the stairs again.

"It's too dangerous, after all, the people above don't know if the two of us are humans or ghosts. Xue Kaimo said as he pulled Wen Li around a corner in the stairwell.

The light in the stairwell was almost completely dimmed, and I could only dimly see the stairs that seemed to never end. When Wen Li insisted on stopping and resting when she walked to the corner of the fourth floor leading to the fifth floor, she lay on Xue Kaimo's shoulder in the dark, even though the stairwell at this time was dark and dead, but Xue Kaimo still had a hard time hearing Wen Li's breathing, she must be too tired.

Suddenly, at the exit of the stairwell where the two of them were diagonally opposite, that is, a section of the corridor on the fifth floor, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up, and at the same time, four or five white iron chairs rushed towards Xue Kaimo and Wen Li from the same direction. Xue Kaimo hurriedly raised the arm power stick in his hand and hurriedly parried, to Xue Kaimo's surprise, the four or five chairs were easily collapsed by him at the same time, and he rolled down the steps behind Xue Kaimo and Wen Li with a strange scream. Wen Li also looked at Xue Kaimo with some strange and surprise, she was also not used to Xue Kaimo's inexplicably enhanced physical strength and reaction speed in a short period of time. Just when Xue Kaimo and Wen Li were distracted, two javelins flew from the direction just now, Xue Kaimo stretched out his empty left hand and grabbed the two javelins in his hand lightly, he raised his hand and was about to throw it back, but Wen Li tugged Xue Kaimo's clothes hard at this time, signaling him to retreat first.

The two of them retreated to the fourth floor, the lights on the upper floor went out instantly, and silence returned to the stairwell, if it weren't for the two slender and sharp javelins still in his hands, Xue Kaimo really thought that everything just now was a short-lived dream.

"Why did you let me come down?" Xue Kaimo asked.

"I saw that it wasn't zombies that threw things, it was people, they must be the students who were guarding here. Wen Li said.

"Then let's go up and talk to them now. Xue Kaimo said that he was about to go upstairs.

"Let's just stand here and shout, although you are indeed terrifyingly strong now, it is better to be on the safe side. I think there were hundreds of people up there. Wen Li's worried tone moved Xue Kaimo for a while, but this feeling made him feel that there was still some hope left in this school.

"The people above, we are also students here, can you hear us?" Xue Kaimo shouted loudly upstairs.

The sound of a noisy clash of iron objects sounded upstairs, and then quickly regained calm, and Xue Kaimo's mind imagined hundreds of people waiting for each other with all kinds of rudimentary weapons (including desks and chairs).

"Can you hear us?" Wen Li shouted again.

"Get out!" A boy's thick voice came from upstairs, even though his tone was so tough, Xue Kaimo could still hear that his confidence was about to be lost.

"We are really human, will those zombies shout at you like this?" Xue Kaimo continued to shout upstairs.

"Fuck off! We don't believe anyone now, and we've never seen any other survivors in school for a week. Also, if you're coming from the Administration Building, hurry up and get back, everything is now caused by you bastards in the Administration Building, and we're at odds with you!" shouted the boy who had just shouted.

"For a week, didn't Xu Pet say that those zombies just came out of the tunnel today?" Xue Kaimo turned his head and asked Wen Li in a low voice.

"No, she's deliberately messing with your mind so that she can kill you when you're unprepared. Old man Zhang and that diary did delay your time, but not for three days, but for a full ten days. Wen Li replied softly.
