Chapter 21: Human Bait
After Yun Qi pressed the remote control, the iron door slowly pulled up, and everyone saw at first glance that on the narrow staircase platform outside, there were actually five or six zombies waiting for the door.
"This ......!" Lin Xinrui screamed out and immediately covered her mouth.
Obviously, the zombies should be gathered on the other side, why is there even a door on this side? What's more, there are still many students in the corridor on the first floor below who are moving this way, and if they don't leave quickly, they will be surrounded.
"It's a bit far from the estimate, forget it." It was useless to hesitate, Yun Qi bit his lip and clenched the long handle of the mop on his right hand, which was longer than an iron rod, and if it was used well, it would ensure that it would not be touched by zombies. "Xiao Xi opened the road Senior Sister to follow, me and Zhao Chun, go!"
The zombies at the door walked towards everyone together, although they were facing five at the same time, Xia Xiyue still stabbed the long knife in his hand unhurriedly, and Zhao Chun also wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Yun Qi.
"If you move too much, it will interfere with Xiao Xi's movements." Yun Qi shook his head, "Wait, don't attack those zombies, just push the tip of the stick in your chest and make them walk slowly, we don't have time to entangle." β
"What?" Zhao Chun looked at Yun Qi in surprise, "If you don't kill them, you'll chase them!" We're going to be flanked! β
"I don't have time to explain, let's go!" Yun Qi slapped Zhao Chun hard.
At this time, Xia Xiyue also defeated five zombies by means of space fighting, but during this time, the zombie group below had approached the staircase, and some zombies had even climbed half of the stairs.
Not only downstairs, but also on the third floor, there seemed to be enemies attracted by the sound, Xia Xiyue had just stepped on the staircase, and there was a zombie from upstairs on the left who wanted to pounce on her and bite her, followed by a companion.
"Senior sister!" Lin Xinrui wanted to remind him out loud. "Next to it!"
But it was too slow, the zombie's claws were less than two centimeters away from Xia Xiyue, and because the attack came from the left, the long knife in his right hand couldn't block quickly.
Although Xia Xiyue can retreat to the right, widen the distance and turn to meet the enemy, but in this way, she has to send her back to the zombies who go upstairs; If you retreat back and return to the gate of the welfare society, you will also give the zombies downstairs time, and the endless tide of corpses will not give everyone a chance to leave.
Faced with a dilemma, Xia Xiyue actually made a move that made Lin Xinrui vomit blood even more - she threw the knife in her right hand back.
Yes, I threw it at her, but I still threw it in my face, although the force was not great, but Lin Xinrui almost didn't catch it.
Ignoring Lin Xinrui, who was so frightened by himself that her heart almost stopped, Xia Xiyue stood still, leaned back and dodged when the enemy caught her, and at the same time her empty right hand quickly blocked her chest and waved outward, her wrist collided with the opponent's arm, and with the power generated by the rotation, Xia Xiyue instead bounced away the powerful zombie arm.
Not only that, Xia Xiyue's left hand and foot stretched out to the side at the same time, and the hand went around the back of the advancing zombie and pushed, and the foot swept to the other party's unstable bottom, and the zombie who had not had a good sense of balance was thrown to the first floor by Xia Xiyue, just against a few corpses that were about to climb to the platform.
So, two or three zombies crashed into a ball and fell downstairs, like a snowball, and these zombies collided with more companions who were going upstairs, and several corpses fell at the staircase on the last floor.
And Xia Xiyue, who had gained time, had already pulled out the wooden knife at her waist and solved the zombies that came down from the third floor.
"Knives." While drawing out the weapon, his left hand grabbed the fallen corpse from behind and threw it downstairs again, and after making sure that there was no enemy, Xia Xiyue, who was expressionless, turned his head and said to Lin Xinrui, who was pale. "Come back."
βοΌοΌ οΌ οΌβ§οΌοΌvοΌοΌ Lin Xinrui opened her mouth and wanted to complain, Xia Xiyue's face was like someone had robbed her of her knife, did she think she wanted to take this thing? Also, even if she is good at karate, don't you know that as long as she is lightly scratched by a zombie, she will be infected? What kind of melee combat to play! "Take it, take it......"
But after thinking about it, Lin Xinrui didn't have the courage to yell at Xia Xiyue at allβit wasn't that she was afraid of being thrown down by everyone, but because she considered that the sound would attract zombies, and now that she was in a hurry, she didn't have the leisure to scold people.
"Don't go up the stairs after going up the third floor, follow the left hallway by the window and go to the lecture hall!" Yun Qi, who was following behind, reminded the two people in front of him, I don't know if the zombies all ran to the first floor, or they had already waited in front of the iron gate in advance, and there were obviously fewer zombies on the third floor, so everyone was moving forward quickly.
"Not going upstairs? Aren't we going to the rooftop waiting for the helicopter? "Zhao Chun was really fooled by Yun Qi, why are the instructions of this woman so weird? But Xia Xiyue, who has the highest force, only listens to her, and she can't do it if she doesn't listen. "Why the detour?"
"You'll find out later!" Yun Qi quickly commanded everyone to move forward, "Go in, don't go near the seating area, stick to the wall and prepare to block the door!" β
There are several club offices on the third floor of the Student Activity Center, but the lecture hall is the largest.
It occupies two-thirds of the floor, with a total of 800 seats, and more importantly, it is designed with four exits and two emergency exits, leading to the third and fourth floors.
But after passing through the lecture hall to the fourth floor, they definitely didn't go upstairs directly, Zhao Chun and Lin Xinrui didn't understand why Yun Qi insisted on walking from here, but after going in and closing the door and stabbing it with an iron bar, the two of them found out, so that the zombies chasing them behind were blocked here.
Even if the iron rod lasts for a short time, just five minutes is enough for four college students to run to the fourth floor to open up the distance.
"You're thinking a lot." Lin Xinrui really didn't expect Yun Qi to be able to calculate this step, and while she was relieved, she couldn't help but admire this thoughtful junior.
"Because I want to live." While running, he took out his mobile phone to look at the time, and Yun Qi said suddenly. "Wait, take the opposite exit."
"Huh?" Zhao Chun almost ran over and hurriedly kept up with the people who were turning, but he still couldn't help it. "It's the same either way, so you should choose the one that is closer."
"Then you go." Yun Qi didn't even bother to answer this time, a man actually asked so many questions. "The last one to come out closes, and then stop to catch your breath."
"Uh, I'll go with you......"
After coming to the corridor on the fourth floor and closing the door of the lecture hall, the four of them rested with their backs to the door.
Except for Xia Xiyue, the three of them were all out of breath, although the distance was not long, but the tension of encountering zombies at any time accelerated the consumption of their bodies, and they felt tired after running for a long time.
"Take a break before you go." Yun Qi took out his phone again to confirm the time.
But her mention this time is really strange, even if everyone is tired, at this time, this place is not a good place to rest.
Except for Xia Xiyue, Zhao Chun and Lin Xinrui all looked at her with suspicious eyes.
"Here...... Well, what if the zombies come in from the hallway and behind the door at the same time? Lin Xinrui said hesitantly, "And we-huh?!" β
Before he could ask clearly, a loud scream interrupted Lin Xinrui's words. The two of them looked at the window in surprise, only people would let out such a terrible howl, and the zombies could only roar in a low voice...... However, those who have survived until now must know that it is necessary to be quiet so as not to attract enemies, right?
Sure enough, after hearing that sound, the zombies on the entire floor were agitated.
Sneaking into the distance of the corridor, she could see several figures slowly walking down the stairs, and then the two of them knew why Yun Qi said to wait, but she seemed to know in advance that someone would scream, what was it ......?
ββ¦β¦β¦ Don't look at me like that, okay? Sensing the suspicious gazes of the two of them swirling on him, Yun Qi glanced over, "It's that fat man, wouldn't it be nice for me to ask him to help us attract zombies?" β
"Fatty?" Zhao Chun looked outside suspiciously. "And...... What is this......? β
Probably because of the window, and Zhao Chun's hearing is particularly sensitive, he seems to have heard some cries and continuous screams, but it is not as loud as just now, which makes him even more curious. "How did you make that fat man scream? I don't think he's kind enough to help us. β
"Just scare him, he's cowardly anyway." Lin Xinrui's suspicious gaze made Yun Qi uncomfortable. "He'll buy us a little bit of time, and we'll wait until the zombies are all led over before leaving."
"There are more people." Sensing her friend's embarrassment, Xia Xiyue looked around and said loudly. "There shouldn't be so many people playing clubs."
"Ran from the dorm." The friend started to lead the topic, of course Yun Qi fully cooperated, she really didn't want to say how she designed Li Ruiyan and others to attract zombies. Even when Xia Xiyue was executing that method, she felt very uncomfortable, not to mention that the two of them would bounce back more when they knew about it. "There may be only a few of us left in the whole school, and those zombies are of course running here to wander around in order to find food."
"That's why the senior sister kept Cheng Feng and those people, so that they could be used as bait to attract zombies?" Hearing Yun Qi say this, something seemed to be connected into a line in Lin Xinrui's mind, "This is the reason why you don't kill them?" β
ββ¦β¦ At last. Yun Qi coughed lightly, "I just want to make the most of it, anyway, well, didn't I plan to leave them downstairs before?" Anyway, don't mention this. β
ββ¦β¦ Yes, that's right. Lin Xinrui was in a very complicated mood, "However, Li Ruiyan was in his scream...... What the hell did you do? β
"Ahem, don't talk about it, right? The people downstairs could only buy some time. Out of weakness, Yun Qi avoided this topic. The zombies are almost gone, so go upstairs now. β
Yun Qi's expression was too ambiguous, but even if he wanted to ask clearly, it was not a good time for Lin Xinrui to shake his head and decided to wait for the helicopter to ask clearly.
The process of going upstairs was very smooth, there were originally few students upstairs, plus Li Ruiyan's roar led away most of the zombies, and most of the students hid in the room after being infected and locked the doors and windows, even if they became zombies, they were trapped in the social office, so that everyone went all the way smoothly and successfully reached the fifth floor.
After reaching the fifth floor, Yun Qi didn't want everyone to go to the top floor immediately, but carefully observed the surroundings, opened the window and looked around, as if he was looking for something.
"Senior sister? If you don't hurry, the zombies will run up...... And the helicopter passed by at ten o'clock, and now it's nine o'clock. Lin Xinrui said worriedly, "If we weren't on the top floor by then, they would have left directly!" β
"I know." Yun Qi turned her back to everyone, making it impossible to see her face clearly. "But senior sister, do you know? The year before last, a senior committed suicide by jumping from the top of the building, it is said that the pressure of homework was too heavy, and then the matter was very troublesome, and the school also came forward to apologize. β
"Huh? Does this have anything to do with the present? Zhao Chun scratched his head and replied.
"Of course, since then, the school has done a lot of protection against suicide, including student publicity, and the installation of barbed wire protection on the top floor, the iron door leading to the roof of the building is all thickened and bolted, and I don't know where to keep the key...... "Yun Qi turned around with a solemn expression. β¦β¦ So we couldn't open that door at all. β
"What?" Hearing this, Lin Xinrui was stunned, "Then how do we go up?" β
