Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

Chapter 51: A Familiar Method!

Chen Tuo, Shu Yao, and Jiang Xin worked together seamlessly.

From breaking down doors to killing zombies, and then searching for supplies, the whole process was smooth and efficient, without any unnecessary movements.

As long as there are no unexpected delays, it takes an average of one hour to sweep one floor.

With Zhang Shanhai assisting them now, the process is even faster.

As for Li Wenwu, he seemed to be busy running around, but in reality, all his actions were ineffective, and he was completely ignored.

In no time, the group had cleared the area from the fourth floor all the way down to the second floor, and it looked like the entire Unit 2 was about to be completely cleaned...

"Aaaaaah! Help! Help me!"

A woman's scream came from outside the window, interrupting the group's search for supplies.

Li Wenwu darted to the window in a flash, took a closer look, and immediately shouted, "Brother Tuo, Brother Hai, there's a woman being chased by zombies outside!"

"woman?"

Chen Tuo quickly walked to the window, and the others followed.

Sure enough, a woman with big, wavy hair and wearing a sexy red dress was running wildly downstairs in the apartment building.

Behind her, four or five zombies were following closely.

Fortunately, the zombies weren't very fast, and they couldn't bite her for a while.

But not far away, more zombies were gathering from all directions. If this dragged on any longer, even if they moved slowly, the woman would eventually be trapped and die a gruesome death, being devoured.

"How could there be a woman here?" Chen Tuo couldn't understand.

"Brother Chen Tuo, we have to save her!"

Zhang Shanhai panicked on the spot.

Shu Yao and Jiang Xin were equally anxious.

Even Li Wenwu craned his neck to look down.

Chen Tuo felt that something was amiss, but he didn't have time to think about it in detail right now.

He wasn't one to stand by and watch someone die. Faced with an unarmed survivor about to be devoured by zombies, his first instinct was to get the person inside.

"Walk!"

The group quickly ran downstairs.

As a high-end residential community in Jiaxing, Platinum International naturally has a reliable security system.

Not only is strict registration required to enter the community, but even the apartment buildings are equipped with facial recognition systems for residents.

Of course, this measure became obsolete after the power outage.

However, two thick glass doors blocked the way, preventing the roaming zombies from getting in. Unless the safety latches were manually opened from the inside, the only way to break in was to smash them down from the outside.

"Hurry up, hurry up!!!"

When Chen Tuo and the others arrived at the hall, the woman was already pressed tightly against the glass door, stomping her feet and frantically banging on the door, on the verge of tears.

The zombies behind us are visibly closing in; in ten seconds at most, they'll be biting us...

"Come in quickly!"

As Zhang Shanhai took the lead in unlocking the glass door, before he could finish speaking, the woman plunged inside.

Closely following behind her were dozens of ferocious zombies...

boom!

Fortunately, Chen Tuo acted quickly enough to slam the two doors shut the instant the zombie's arm touched the glass door.

Even after the latch was fastened, the zombies continued to ram the glass door.

The door frame swayed incessantly, creaking and rattling...

"Get upstairs quickly, get out of the zombies' sight. The door won't hold if we keep ramming it like this!"

The group crawled into the fire escape, and the zombie sounds began to subside...

Upon arriving on the second floor, they randomly selected a room that had already been thoroughly searched and settled down on the sofa.

The woman seemed to be still in shock; her pretty face was deathly pale, her hands trembled slightly on her lap, and she didn't even bother to tidy her disheveled hair.

In comparison, the group of people who had dealt with zombies quite a bit were much better off.

Even Li Wenwu, who was the most timid, regained his composure after taking a few deep breaths.

But his eyes kept involuntarily drifting towards women's revealing clothing...

"Oh dear, that was close! Luckily we reacted quickly!" Zhang Shanhai laughed. "Um... Miss, how did you end up outside? That was so dangerous! Luckily we heard the commotion."

"Brother Hai, this is perfectly normal. The girl probably ran out of food at home, so she had no choice but to risk leaving the building. We've seen plenty of things like this these past few days, haven't we?"

Li Wenwu was the first to explain on behalf of the other party.

The woman recovered a little and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, I... I ran out of food at home, so I had to come out to look for something. I didn't expect there to be so many zombies outside..."

"Have you been starving for days?" Chen Tuo asked for the first time.

"Three...three or four days, I guess," the woman replied timidly.

"Oh dear, you've been starving for so many days! I have some food here!" Li Wenwu quickly offered his help, taking out several bags of bread and a bottle of milk from his bag.

As Chen Tuo sized up the other person, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Three or four days?

Looking at his energetic appearance, he doesn't seem like someone who has been starving for three or four days.

There are just too many suspicious things about this woman.

She was dressed sexily, revealing most of her cleavage.

Her makeup was exquisite, with eyebrows, eyeshadow, and lipstick all applied.

Who would dress like this to go out looking for food in a post-apocalyptic world after being starved for days?

There are so many apartment buildings around, yet they specifically chose to come straight for Unit 2...

Most importantly, the flowerbeds and plaza downstairs are teeming with zombies, all wandering aimlessly.

Although there were zombies chasing the direction the woman had come from, there were clearly more zombies further away from her, and some of them seemed to be huddled together eating something.

The situation was too critical at the time, and Chen Tuo didn't see it clearly.

When they came up and looked out the window again, the zombies had returned to normal and were wandering around below in a chaotic manner.

Although my memory is a bit hazy, that scene always felt strangely familiar...

"Hey beautiful, what's your name?"

Li Wenwu had somehow moved from sitting opposite to sitting next to the other person.

"I...I am Fang Hui."

……

The sky began to darken.

All the fresh ingredients have been used up, so dinner will have to be made do.

Boiled noodles, mixed with some seasonings and pickled vegetables, and that's a meal.

The entire Unit 2 building has been thoroughly cleaned.

However, since it was too late, Chen Tuo decided to wait until tomorrow to proceed with the next step...

After spending the last few hours together, Fang Hui had completely recovered from her initial panic. She was now smiling sweetly and snuggling up to Li Wenwu, chatting secretly.

The two kept their voices very low, and only occasional exclamations and soft laughter could be heard.

"Brother Chen Tuo, all the zombies in this building have been cleared out. What are we going to do tomorrow?" Zhang Shanhai asked after eating a piece of potato.

Chen Tuo glanced at Fang Hui and simply said, "Go check the basement."

"Brother Chen Tuo, do you want to drive out from the basement?" Zhang Shanhai wasn't stupid; he immediately guessed the intention upon hearing this.

As soon as he said that, everyone looked over, including Fang Hui, who also raised her head.

"Yes." Chen Tuo didn't hide anything, and casually asked, "Do you have a car?"

"Yes!" Zhang Shanhai nodded. "I have an SUV, parked downstairs."

"And you?" Chen Tuo asked Shu Yao.

Shu Yao shook her head, "I used all my savings to pay the down payment."

She became somewhat saddened when she talked about it.

I've worked hard to save up for years, and just as I moved into my new home, a zombie outbreak occurred. What kind of situation is this?

I should have used it to eat a few good meals; that way, I wouldn't have been shortchanging myself...

Chen Tuo nodded, understanding dawning on his mind.

"Brother Tuo, why don't you ask me?" Jiang Xin's little face came closer.
