Chapter 2: The Culprit
There was still an hour left before the time to set off, but Qu Heng was ready, behind him were two javelins, and in his hand was a special long knife, according to him, it took a lot of time and effort to sharpen this knife, after all, it was not as simple as imagined to make a decent weapon under such difficult conditions.
"Pack up, we'll go now. Qu Heng said to Xue Kaimo.
"Where are you going?" Xue Kaimo looked at his watch and asked Qu Heng.
"Administration building. The girl's words reminded me that even if we decided to go to war with the zombies, we had to deal with the culprit first. Qu Heng said hatefully.
"Good. Xue Kaimo agreed, took two javelins and stuck them behind him, and chose an iron rod the thickness of his thumb. Judging from their weapons alone, Xue Kaimo and Qu Heng stood together like two primitive people who were about to go out hunting.
"I'll go with you. Wen Li said uneasily.
"No, you stay, it's enough to have the two of us. After Xue Kaimo finished speaking, he didn't give Wen Li a chance to object, and followed Qu Heng out of the command room.
On the sixth and fifth floors, some people knew the purpose of Xue Kaimo and Qu Heng's visit and wanted to participate, but Qu Heng refused, and Qu Heng also told everyone that if he and Xue Kaimo did not come back at the agreed time, everyone must act according to the plan, and the command was temporarily handed over to the tall and thin boy.
Xue Kaimo and Qu Heng walked out of Building No. 2, facing a scene of decay that was even more bleak than the day before: the ground was full of blood stains left by the zombies when they retreated last night, footprints and stumps and broken legs of zombies or people, and the bloody breath seemed to be frozen by the cold air, which could not be dissipated for a long time. The flower beds not far away were overgrown with weeds, and the trees on the roadside had already lost their leaves, and everything was painted with a gray color, like a pencil drawing that had been trampled on. Xue Kaimo and Qu Heng walked on the way to the administrative building, no one spoke, they searched for the crisis around them that might suddenly appear at any time with their ears and eyes, and at the same time, the hatred in their hearts was also heating up rapidly.
The glass door of the administrative building had been smashed, and Xue Kaimo and Qu Heng walked to the hall on the first floor and found that this was also a place frequented by zombies. Almost every wall, every column, and every flight of stairs were stained with blood, light or dark, but there were no broken corpses here, and it could be seen that every time the zombies came here, they finally returned in vain.
It took less than five minutes for two people to get from the first floor to the fifth floor, and on the third floor, they easily turned out a zombie that suddenly came out of an office. At the end of the staircase leading from the fourth floor to the fifth floor was an uneven iron door, the door was stamped with dirty handprints, and Xue Kaimo seemed to be able to imagine the scene of hordes of zombies gathering here to flock to this very strong gate.
"What to do? If so many zombies don't have the strength to push this door open, we won't be able to do so. Xue Kaimo said to Qu Heng.
"Take a closer look. Qu Heng cautiously walked to the door, stretched out his hand and pushed tentatively. With a jerky loud noise, the iron door was unexpectedly pushed open by Qu Heng.
Qu Heng was so frightened that he stepped back, but was quickly supported by Xue Kaimo's back. Qu Heng wiped the sweat from his forehead embarrassedly and stabilized his mind.
"I just remembered that virus diary, and I really couldn't imagine what kind of devil Dean Su was. Qu Heng said to Xue Kaimo.
Xue Kaimo, who felt the same way, nodded, and then he pointed to the iron door, "This shouldn't be a trap, right?"
"Even if it does, even if the two of them have turned into zombies, I'm going to cut off their heads. Qu Heng's anger rekindled, he strode forward, stretched out his hand and pushed the two iron doors completely open, and Xue Kaimo followed closely behind.
