Chapter Forty-Seven: A Mountain of Corpses and a Sea of Corpses

The four of them pushed open the stainless steel door, and before they entered the restaurant lobby, the scene in front of them shocked the four of them.

The canteen hall of the organ, which serves the lunch of thousands of people, is not small, and there are eight basketball courts horizontally and vertically, which is more than enough.

In the hall, all the tables, chairs and benches were moved to one side of the room. The corpses lay on the ground in patches, undulating like the sea. And on the wall where there was a window, a large number of corpses were stacked high together, like mountains, almost touching the ceiling.

It is in the darkness, the mountains and the sea of corpses.

Above the corpse, a mist seemed to form that was formed by the corpse's slow decomposition.

Jin Yue is a female man, and when she saw this scene, her legs immediately weakened, and she knelt on the ground all of a sudden.

Zhang Xiushan's right hand also began to tremble, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.

Li Yu is a forensic doctor, and his psychological quality is the best among the three, and when he saw such a scene, he couldn't help but hold his hand on the iron door.

And Zheng Jieming, who once fought to the death in the tide of corpses, survived the rest of his life in the corpse pile, but in the face of the large canteen more than ten times larger than the backyard, and in the face of the corpses covering the entire canteen hall, he also felt dizzy and slowly squatted on the ground.

It took a while for the four of them to come back to their senses.

"What do you think?" Zheng Jieming asked, and he didn't know who he was asking.

"What do you think?" Li Yu replied. At this time, Lao Zhang and Jin Yue were still in a state of blank minds.

"Why are these corpses piled up here?" Zheng Jieming said.

Li Yu did not speak. He was speculating about all kinds of bad possibilities, but he never had a clue.

He decided to look to the corpses for answers.

Li Yu checked the two nearest corpses around him, a man and a woman, the man was wearing a tie, and it seemed that he should be an office worker. The women wore dresses, which were not particularly formal. Since many government departments don't need to wear formal clothes, Li Yu has no way to judge her identity.

He walked inside. The corpses were piled up so tightly that he had little room to put his feet. The pungent smell barely kept him open.

One by one, he bent down to examine the corpses, but he didn't want to get too close. The more he looked at it, the more terrified he felt in his heart.

These corpses have any identity. Elderly, students, women, office workers.

Most of them showed signs of degeneration, some were mild, some were extremely obvious, and their eyes were red. But there are also quite a few corpses, apparently ordinary human beings without corpses.

Zombie corpses seemed to be less prone to decay, and he checked a few, and the corpses were far better preserved than those without zombies.

But all the bodies were stab wounds to the head, and none of them were gunshot wounds.

Li Yu stood up silently, glanced around the room, and retreated.

"What's the conclusion? Or an idea? Zheng Jieming was still squatting, looking up and asking Li Yu.

Li Yu couldn't confirm it, he imagined several possibilities in his mind, but he overturned it himself, and he felt that these ideas were full of contradictions.

"Is this a massacre?" Jin Yue frowned, covered her nose and mouth, and said the first thought that came to Li Yu's mind.

Could it be that in order to prevent contagion, take the initiative to slaughter zombies that have been infected and mutated? But there are normal humans mixed in here, how to explain it?

Li Yu shook his head and said simply, "There are corpses of normal humans inside." ”

"Indiscriminate elimination of hidden dangers? Kill people who may be infected? Jin Yue came up with another idea.

This idea seems quite reasonable, but Li Yu also thinks it is inappropriate. All the corpses are stabbed in the head, and some of them have been transformed, how can it be that people and zombies are honestly standing and being cut down, and no one resists? No one ran away? No zombie attacks? Moreover, the skulls of zombies become brittle, but the skulls of humans are extremely hard. It takes much more effort to slash a knife on a person's head.

Li Yu did not give a reason to deny this view this time, but just shook his head and said, "It's almost impossible." ”

Zheng Jieming himself is imagining various possible explanations. Was it carried here? This explanation also doesn't seem to make sense, if it's an afterthought, why not just burn it?

"Enough! Can you stop discussing it! It's so stuffy and smelly, I'm about to suffocate! Zhang Xiushan finally couldn't stand the stench and threw it out by holding on to the door.

Jin Yue couldn't help it, but taking care of her image, she endured it stubbornly.

"Li Yu?" Zheng Jieming looked up at Li Yu, who was still frowning and pondering.

"Let's go! Come on! Li Yu came back from various assumptions, looked at the mountain of corpses and the sea of corpses, and suddenly thought of a serious problem.

The sulfide gas produced by the decomposition of corpses can cause serious damage to a person's respiratory organs. There are so many corpses here, and the temperature in the hall has risen very high. It's stuffy and smelly, and it definitely can't stay for long.

"Which way to go? You're not going to cross over, are you? Zhang Xiushan lowered his head and vomited, not noticing that Li Yu had already retreated to the door.

"Crossing? Stepping on a corpse? There's not even a place to stay, in case the opposite side locks the door and steps back? was suffocated to death. Li Yu said, his mind was obviously disrupted now, and he was a little panicked.

"Let's go back to the operation room, at least there aren't many corpses on the ground over there." Zheng Jieming said. He slowly began to lose his breath in his heart. After going around in circles, it's back to the beginning.

On the ground of the operation room, except for a human corpse at the place where you just entered the door, the ground inside is quite normal, and there are no corpses. There was only grease on the ground, no blood.

This kitchen operation room is very large, with a side dish table in the middle, and a circle around it is a vegetable sink, a dishwashing sink, a stove, a cupboard and other places. The overall arrangement is in the shape of a hollow zigzag.

There are two doors at the end of the operation room. One opens to the right, and from the structure of the canteen, this door should lead to the storage room, where the prepared dishes are temporarily placed in the storage room and successively carried into the dining table in the canteen hall.

Another door was directly ahead, and it was closed, not knowing where it led.

"Let's see if there are any knives by the way!" Li Yu said, walking close to the right side of the console, looking left and right vigilantly, walking slowly, touching the console with his right hand.

Zhang Xiushan anxiously searched for the middle side dishes, hoping to find a decent knife.

But the two of them found the empty knife holder, and they didn't even see the shadow of the knife.

"!" The uneasiness in Zhang Xiushan's heart doubled, and when he turned around, he noticed the pan on the stove.

He picked up the pan and swung it downwards twice. I feel reluctantly handy.

"That's it!"

Li Yu didn't want to use such a bloody weapon, so he could only hold his own knife that was already jerky.

Suddenly, a low roar was heard from ahead.

The four of them stopped, not daring to make a sound, and listened carefully to the source of the roar.

What was heard was the sound of hurried, extremely heavy footsteps.

The footsteps were getting louder and louder, and they seemed to be running towards the four.

Boom!

There was a loud bang, and the four of them saw nothing in the darkness, and the door directly in front of them was slammed open.

A dark shadow as tall as the door burst into the operation room, roaring, and continuing to rush straight down the hallway.

Zhang Xiushan was quick and jumped onto the table, but he was still scraped down by the black shadow, his head hit the cutting board hard, and the empty knife holder fell down and hit him in the face.

Li Yu didn't have time to dodge, and was directly hit by this thing, almost flying to the base of the wall.

This time, Li Yu was knocked unconscious.

This thing hit Li Yu, stood in place, raised his head and roared, and everyone saw that its eyes were red and shining, like two red lights. The zombie took a few steps forward and bent down to grab Li Yu.

"Hack it!!" Zheng Jieming was on the other side of the hollow-shaped corridor, jumped on the catering table and jumped straight at the zombie, and slashed at the zombie's head. This guy still didn't stop moving, grabbed Li Yu with his right hand, and lifted him high.

Zhang Xiushan also rushed up, lifted the pan and slammed it on the zombie's head.

With a thud, the pan smacked crisply near its left ear.

The zombie shook his head and let go, and Li Yu fell to the ground heavily.

After this fall, Li Yu woke up from his coma again. He felt as if one or two of his ribs were broken.

The zombie turned to the left, waved his right hand, and slapped it on Zhang Xiushan's head, Zhang Xiushan quickly leaned to the right to dodge, and this time he still scratched his scalp. He only felt that a layer of skin on his head had been rubbed off raw.

Zheng Jieming jumped up from the catering table to the corridor and slashed at the zombie's neck, this knife was also not deep, and the bone chopping knife had already cut the gap.

"Axe! Where's the axe!? Zheng Jieming landed and called Jin Yue loudly.

In the crisis, Jin Yue also jumped on the catering table and sprinted forward. With the height of the table, she leaped forward and smashed the zombie head with both hands on the handle of the axe, using all her strength on the axe. The axe slashed down, and the axe slashed deep into the zombie's head. Jin Yue's center of gravity was unstable, and his stride and legs hit the edge of the table, but his body rushed out of the table. With inertia, the whole person hit the ground first, hit the ground, and then flipped to the ground.

The axe is still left on the zombie's head.

The zombie still didn't fall, and turned around in place, facing Jin Yue. Then the zombie bent down and grabbed Jin Yue's waist and wanted to lift her upside down.

Zheng Jieming panicked when he saw this, he grabbed the axe on the zombie's head, pulled it out hard, and desperately slammed at the zombie for a while, like chopping wood for his life.

The zombie finally couldn't hold it anymore, his claws were released, and he knelt forward, Zheng Jieming hurriedly threw away the axe and dragged Jin Yue away. The zombie fell face down on the ground.

Zheng Jieming was paralyzed on the ground, panting incessantly, his face was covered with sweat, and his heart was beating non-stop.

Jin Yue lay on the ground, slowed down, stood up with his chest covered, and walked towards Li Yu with his support for the wall.

Zhang Xiushan got up from the ground and touched his scalp, which was slightly oozing blood, and he felt that the problem should not be big. also hurriedly stepped forward to check Li Yu's condition.

As soon as Li Yu moved slightly, his chest hurt badly, obviously his ribs were broken.
