Chapter 4: Saving Lives

Sitting on his knees in a panic, Ma Kai gasped for breath, his mind blank.

That shout just now was definitely fat, what did he encounter? Why does the rope break and it's full of blood, isn't it fat? Is he dead or alive now? Who is hurting him, or is he hurting whom?

Ma Kai gradually came back to his senses, and kept thinking about the situation just now, and all kinds of questions followed.

I got up and came to the door, and observed the situation outside through the cat's eye, and there was no movement.

I went to the front and rear windows to see what was going on below, but it was still foggy outside, and I couldn't see anything.

Well? Wrong! The fog seemed to have dissipated somewhat, and the shadows of the willow trees in front of me could be faintly seen, and the slight sound of the wind could be heard when the windows were opened.

The wind is blowing! It shouldn't be long before the fog clears, right?

"Goo..."There was a cry in my stomach, I didn't eat much yesterday, and so many things happened this morning, I was already a little hungry,

But what happened just now made him really have no appetite to eat, but now he needs to replenish his strength, otherwise he won't even have the strength to run if there is any danger. I opened a bag of instant noodles and chewed them dry, forcing myself to swallow them.

It took a long time to finish a bag of noodles, drink a few sips of water, and then go to the window to check the situation outside.

The fog has drifted away for the most part, and now he can clearly see the trees opposite, through the faint mist, he seems to have seen a figure flashing downstairs, the fog is separated, and he can't see whether it is a fat man.

Ma Kai hurriedly opened the window, poked his head out, and looked down, and saw an arm covered in blood at the door of the building!

Just as he was about to take a closer look, the arm suddenly retracted.

Look at the thickness of that arm, it seems to be a fat man, how is he, is he still alive?

Ma Kai didn't dare to call him, and after quietly observing for a while, seeing that there was no other movement, he carefully closed the window.

Why don't you go out and have a look? Ma Kai is very entangled now, he wants to go out to see the fat man's situation, but he is afraid that there is danger outside, so he even takes it himself.

By the way, there are still two floors upstairs that I haven't seen, if someone is alive without being infected, everyone can have a companion, and one more person will be together, and they will always be bolder.

I took out the dagger in my travel bag to defend myself, thought about it and was not at ease, so I ran to the kitchen and found a larger pot lid to use as a shield, and walked slowly upstairs with courage.

As soon as I reached the 6th floor, I heard hoarse roars from the rooms on both sides, and the sound of objects colliding, which was not like a human voice.

If you listen carefully, there are still cries for help on the 7th floor.

Quickly ran to the 7th floor and shouted to the room where the cries for help came, "What's wrong inside?" Open the door! ”

"Ahh Help, woo.. Woo..., help me, woo...," a girl cried hoarsely for help.

"What the hell is going on? What's the situation? Open the door! Make the words clear. As soon as he finished shouting, there was a sound of slamming the door on both sides of the door, accompanied by "Ho!! Ho!! This is definitely not made by humans!

Ma Kai was startled, looking at the doors on both sides nervously and not knowing where to stand, could this sound be the thing that caused the fat man to have an accident?

"Woo... My dad died and became a monster, cough.. He ate my mother, woo..., come and save me, I don't want to die, save me, woo..."

"Don't cry yet, how are you doing? Can it come out? "There was someone to talk to, and even if the things she described were terrible, Mackay was a little bolder, not as nervous as he had just been.

"I'm in the bedroom, I've blocked everything in the door, my dad can't get in now, you can find a way to get me out, I'm so scared, woo..."

Ma Kai heard the girl's words, thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, I'll find a way to save you immediately, you must ensure your own safety, don't shout loudly, those things seem to be very sensitive to sound." ”

Hearing the cry of the girl in the room gradually weakening, Ma Kai had the courage to knock the lid of the pot in his hand with a dagger, and there was a fierce slamming sound in the rooms on both sides, it was the monster she said!

Running back to his house from the 7th floor, there were roars coming from the rooms on both sides of the way, even in Old Man Mu's house, it seems that these dead people have all become monsters in the girl's mouth.

After entering the house, he closed the door and knocked on his head to think about how to get the girl out. The girl was blocked in the bedroom and couldn't get out, and he wouldn't pick the lock, and even if he could, he wouldn't dare to open the door, so as not to be accidentally eaten by monsters.

Do you want her to jump off? Just kidding, on the 7th floor, if you jump down, you will definitely fall to your death. If he dared to continue below, I don't know if the girl would survive, he would be stoned to death at all.

That's right, the rooftop! There is a small door leading to the top of the stairs on the 7th floor, and when he was a child, he once skipped school because he didn't do his homework and ran to the top of the building for a morning. But it seems to have been locked up later, and I never went up again.

I went downstairs and took the bloodstained rope up, and found scissors to cut off the bloody part and break it into two strands. and make a knot at intervals, so that it is easy to catch and climb. Then he found a sturdy rope in his toolbox and walked upstairs with him.

"Hey, are you okay? I'm here to save you! Ma Kai walked to the seventh floor and shouted at the house.

"Ah, come on, the door is almost smashed by my dad, I can't hold on for long!" When the girl heard his voice, she immediately replied.

"Okay, don't be in a hurry, don't make a sound, I'll lead the monster to the front door first, and then I'll go to the top of the building and lower the rope, you climb up, okay?"

"Well, hurry up, I'm so scared!" The girl resisted her fear and did not cry.

"Duang" Ma Kai kicked the door on it, leading the monster to smash the door again, and then he took his things and walked to the roof.

Approaching the small door leading to the roof, Mackay found that the door was locked with an old-fashioned lock, but he had no intention of breaking it.

Because the door above has been around for decades, the thin layer of iron sheet has long since corroded. I found an iron pipe in the debris pile next to it, and smashed the deadbolt in two clicks.

I pushed open the door and looked out, the fog had already cleared, and the sun was hanging high in the sky.

Walking to the side and looking down, Ma Kai, who was a little afraid of heights, felt that his legs were a little weak. Finding the location of the girl's house, she first found a place to tie the separate rope, and then slowly put it down.

The girl was already waiting by the window, and when she saw the rope lowered, she grabbed it.

"You tie this rope to your body first, I'm putting the other one down, you climb up." Mackay saw her pull the rope in, and immediately tied the double-stranded rope as well, and then lowered it as well.

Just as the girl was about to step out of the window and climb up, Ma Kai saw a figure running out of the doorway downstairs.

The hideous face, the face was covered with blood, there was a piece of cloth hanging from the mouth, and the body was also stained with blood. The most terrifying thing is that he still has an arm in his hand, which is the fat man's arm!

This is the doorman, and he has also become a monster! He ate the fat man?

After the doorman ran downstairs, another person ran out from behind, as if it was his daughter-in-law, and she was also covered in blood!

The two of them ran downstairs, screaming, and then trying to climb upstairs. But the smooth walls gave them nowhere to draw on their strength, so they could only keep rushing upwards, raising their heads and howling.

Ma Kai's face was sluggish, and he didn't react for a long time.

"That's it, my dad is like this now, it seems like they've all turned into zombies, woo..."

The cry of the girl downstairs woke up Ma Kai, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately said to the girl: "Don't cry, hurry up and climb up, climb up and talk." ”

The girl snorted, grabbed the rope and climbed up.

Ma Kai's idea was good, but the rope was too soft, and the feet were not good to put in the rope noose, and the girl had no strength, so she was so frightened that she cried after climbing two squares.

There was no way, Ma Kai had to kick on the wall of the roof with his feet, and he was so hard to eat that his hands were about to wear out the skin before he dragged her up.

As soon as the girl came up, she hugged him and cried hard, and Ma Kai had to pat her back and comfort her, sympathetic to her plight.

It took a long time for the girl to stop crying, snorting and sitting on the ground with red eyes.

Ma Kai took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to her, and then said to her: "Eat some chocolate, this can replenish your physical strength, don't be afraid, it's all in the past, and living is the most important thing!" ”

The girl didn't answer, so Mackay had to open her mouth and stuff the chocolate inside.

Chocolate is a great way to relieve tension and fear, and let her be quiet here for a while, and Ma Kai plans to go around to observe the situation and see how the rest of the place is going.

But as soon as Ma Kai moved, the girl immediately stood up, and pulled the corner of his clothes and did not let go, for fear that he would run away.

"It's okay, I can't run again, just look around, or you can follow me." Ma Kai smiled at her, and then pulled her around to take a look.
