It's a cozy mall surrounded by light music. Qin Jue sat by the fountain and habitually smoothed her long hair, such a comfortable weekend was very relaxing, she lowered her head and slid her phone to see where Wang Yiyi was.

This is a high-end shopping mall in H City, and there are often many young people, Internet celebrities who come here to check in for afternoon tea and go shopping, and they are happy to take photos. But recently, for some reason, a large number of shops have closed, and the shopping mall of Nuoda seems deserted.

She and her best friend made an appointment to meet here, but the eldest lady was always half an hour late, and she was not surprised.

"Wow" a message reminder, and real-time news popped up on the mobile phone screen: "Unknown viruses have been found in this city, causing many violent incidents, and mysterious young people are brave in their actions." Click on it and look at it, the photos are all bloody photos full of mosaics, only a long back on the cover made Qin Jue stop for a few seconds, but unfortunately it was just a blurry image. After watching it for a while, Qin Jue turned off his phone and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

"How can the news be so direct now." She couldn't help but mutter.

"Wow" another message reminder, flashing on the mobile phone, "Warm reminder to the public, please return home in an orderly manner, if there is no need, do not go out!" ”

"Oh" received a text message from the city government, "H City has entered a state of emergency, please do not panic, return to your homes in an orderly manner, and suspend going out if there is no need!" ”

Qin Jue opened WeChat and received the last voice message from Wang Yiyi: "Honey, I'm here, go to the bathroom." We'll see you at the old place! ”

She wanted to call Wang Yiyi to tell her that the citizen text message reminded her, but found that the mobile phone had no signal.

"What's the situation? Got a debt? ”

Suddenly, a terrible scream startled Qin Jue to get up immediately, and the voices around the fountain were quiet for a moment. Qin Jue hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, and involuntarily grabbed the leather bag he was carrying.

The waiters in the nearby stores heard the screams and stopped in front of the store, whispering about the news of the recent violence while probing their heads to watch the excitement.

A man in a plaid shirt ran out of the walkway, screaming and rushing over. As he ran, he pulled his hands forward, his face was covered with sweat, and he didn't know whether he ran out or was frightened. The crowd avoided him, lest he had some sharp weapon in his hand.

He turned around as he ran, and bumped into Qin Jue unexpectedly.

With a bang, Qin Jue fell heavily to the ground, his eyes were black for a while, and there was a sour smell of sweat lingering on the tip of his nose. The plaid shirt man hurriedly lowered his head, his eyes widened, and he looked at Qin Jue on the ground in horror, as if he was the one who was hit.

He hesitated for a moment, then looked up in the direction he had come, turned and ran.

There was a dull pain in her shoulder, and Qin Jue wanted to get up by herself, but the blackness in front of her made her a little unable to find the north for a while.

"What's going on with this person, he won't apologize."

The female clerk who was standing on the side and watching the excitement stepped forward and helped Qin Jue up steadily.

Qin Jue was about to say thank you, when screams came from the end of the road, interrupting the crowd who were still talking. Panic spread like a tidal wave, and people began to run one after another.

The people on this side of the road don't know what's going on.

Seeing this, the female clerk hurriedly let go of her, turned around and ran to the store, and shouted "lock the cabinet first!" while directing the rest of the store! ”

Qin Jue saw that more and more people began to run in her direction, and subconsciously turned around and ran with the flow of people. She thought of her little friend in the bathroom, and turned back again and again, trying to see Wang Yiyi's figure in the panicked crowd.

But no.

Soon she ran to the entrance of the mall, and people dispersed as soon as they passed through the gate.

The road was already in chaos.

In the distance, the high-rise buildings seemed to have just experienced a war, and the sealed glass windows of the high-rise were shattered, and smoke billowed from them. Sirens blared in the streets, and fire trucks across the street slanted into a restaurant; The streets were full of chaotic crowds, panicking, crying and running.

Qin Jue slowly walked to the middle of the sidewalk, and the sound of crying, insulting, and sirens poured into his eardrums like a tide. The sticky sweat from the heat wave instantly climbed onto her skin, and the air was filled with an indescribable smell of fire oil, which made her unable to breathe.

Her palms began to sweat, and she looked back at the shopping mall, which was already much empty, and thought that Wang Yiyi might still be inside, and she couldn't take a step.

A man ran out of the mall head-on, Qin Jue grabbed him and asked, "What's going on inside, what's going on?" ”

The man's breath was a little hot, there were dense beads of sweat on his forehead, and his lips were trembling: "Become a zombie, become a zombie!" Then he shook off Qin Jue's hand and ran away.

A young man half-dragged and half-carried a gray-haired aunt ran in front of Qin Jue, and the aunt's howls from far and near dragged Qin Jue's sanity back like an alarm bell. She watched in amazement as their figures faded away, and the wails echoed throughout the street.

Swallowing his saliva and clenching his fists, Qin Jue took a deep breath, turned around and plunged into the mall that looked empty.

Next to the gate were the forks and shields used by the mall security guards to prevent riots, and she raised the forks with both hands to check them, and they were really long and heavy, not very handy. Finally, she raised her half-human-high shield in both hands, raised it above her head, and ran along the road she had come from to the intersection of the bathroom where the two men had separated.

There was no one in the brightly lit shopping mall, only light music was playing on a loop, and the cold air made Qin Jue nervous goosebumps all the way. The larger-than-human advertising screen shows the supermodel wearing perfect makeup and showing her the standard smile of eight teeth.

Finally walked to the aisle of the bathroom where Wang Yiyi went, facing the dark aisle, Qin Jue put the shield in front of him, then stretched his head out of the shield, and shouted softly: "Yiyi!" Wang Yiyi! ”

The bathroom door creaked open in the darkness and then slammed shut.

A person slowly came out of the dimly lit corridor. He took unsteady steps, as if he were drunk, and swayed step by step to a place where there was light. He was wearing a black suit, and his expression was hard to see in the shadows.

Da-da, da-da, the sound of tapping footsteps is not as smooth as a normal person. Qin Jue gradually smelled an unpleasant smell of blood.

The terrifying feeling accumulated sharply in the other party's slow approach, Qin Jue's hairs stood up instantly, and she couldn't help but drag the shield back a few steps.

"You...... Hello? Qin Jue said something tremblingly, clenched the shield in his hand, and shrunk his entire shoulder under the transparent shield. Suddenly, the person on the other side became excited for some reason, and suddenly rushed towards Qin Jue.
