Undead

Chapter 32

Si Nan got up suddenly.

In the nearby factory area, the shells caused a series of chain explosions, clearing a path for the approaching off-road vehicle. It drifted to a stop just below the building.

Following that, Zhou Rong carried a single-person mortar launcher, leaping from the car's rooftop, and shouted from a distance, "Si Nan!"

"Chun Xiaocao!"

"Rong Ge is here for you!"

Dr. Zheng stared straight out of the window, as if he had witnessed the parting of the Red Sea with his own eyes. Chun Cao wanted to scold Zhou Rong for coming back to die, but thankfully she remembered the zombies filling the corridor before she could let out her anger.

"Are you here to die?" Si Nan shouted from above her head.

Si Nan, another me in the world! Chun Cao thought, her eyes brimming with tears.

Zhou Rong laughed and said, "Look! I'll show you the advanced technology of Type 118!"

Zhou Rong took out a launcher that looked like a mini submachine gun but had triangular arrowheads at the muzzle. As soon as Chun Cao saw it, she pulled Dr. Zheng and didn't even care if it attracted the zombies, saying, "Quick, step back!"

Before she could finish her sentence, both of them took several steps back, and the glass window shattered.

The triangular arrowheads with attached ropes whisked over their heads and deeply embedded into the concrete wall!

The other end of the launcher was fixed on the car's rooftop by Zhou Rong using a high-pressure magnetic base. The rope connected the ground and the top of the ten-story building, creating a bridge of life under the vast sky. Si Nan retied the baby to his back with a piece of cloth and asked Chun Cao, "Who should go first, you or me?"

Chun Cao was frantically looking for a rope to tie Dr. Zheng and said, "You!"

Si Nan took a deep breath, patted the baby's bottom, and whispered, "May your mother protect you. Please don't fall." With that, he tightened his tactical gloves, took a lightning-fast leap, and grabbed the rope.

The wind whistled, ruffling his hair, and his coat flapped in mid-air. He descended from a thirty-meter height at high speed. Zhou Rong knelt down on one knee to stabilize his balance, and just as they were about to hit the rooftop, he caught Si Nan in his arms!

Zhou Rong said, "Great!"

The force of the fall caused both of them to lie on the car's rooftop, with Si Nan on top of Zhou Rong, and for a moment, they were just a few centimeters apart.

The sea of zombies retreated like a defeated army, and the remaining explosions slowly ascended. The smoke rose into the distance against the sky, all reflecting in Zhou Rong's smiling eyes. In that moment, it felt like an uncanny coincidence, deeply engraved in their memories. They gazed into each other's eyes, and Si Nan's lips brushed against Zhou Rong's dry and rough ones.

It was a kiss that happened on impulse.

In this vast world filled with gloom, it all seemed to freeze at that moment, breaking into countless fragmented pieces that scattered in the wind.

"...Did they... forget about us in broad daylight?" Chun Cao trembled.

Dr. Zheng urged, "Let's retreat while Zhou and the others haven't taken the rope."

Zhou Rong laughed heartily, and Si Nan climbed to his feet, his cheeks slightly red. They both went from the rooftop into the car through the sunroof.

Chun Cao realized that her ankles had just been strangled by the rope, and her cheeks flushed bright red. She whispered, "Don't look!"
