The world you used to know isn't the same anymore. The once busy street, full of people and cars are now deserted. Nothing but a few cars remain littered all over the now empty streets of China.
The once busy city, buildings bustling with many worke...
Wang Haoxuan took the stairs leading him to a long hallway. Facing the hallway, on either side of him are doors upon doors and across the hallway is a floor to ceiling window covered by a curtain. On the floor was a carpet and you can see that there was blood residue -that had dried up for how many hours or even days- sticking to it. Bloody hand prints on the walls and even scratched marks was seen. It was now, around 6 o'clock in the evening after they escaped the convenience store. So it was now a little dark when they entered the house. Adding the darkness and the appearance of the hallway, one cannot help but be scared and be on guard for they didn't know what would suddenly come out of the shadows.

(It looks like this but with a floor to ceiling window to the furthest back)
Wang Haoxuan examined his surroundings and he can't help but be scared a little on how quiet the hallway is. Even so, he put up his guard and began trudging to the door nearest to him on his right. He tried to open the door but to no avail, it was locked. So, he moved to the next door on his left and also tried to open it. Unfortunately, it was also locked. Next is the door next to it, opened it but was locked. It repeated for several minutes until he was at the end of the hallway. There was three rooms left, two on the right and one on the left. He first opened the door on the right and found out that it wasn't locked.
He entered the room and assessed the entirety of the bedroom. There on the middle is a king sized bed and a bedside table on either side of it, a cabinet on the right with a door leading to the bathroom next to it, and a window to the left with a chair next to it. It was the master's bedroom, Haoxuan thought. There was nothing to see, for the room is clean without any blood on it or even a corpse of a zombie but it was messy with every household items scattered on the floor.
Wang Haoxuan moved next towards the bathroom to inspect it. But what he saw shocked him, the floor was soaked with blood trailing to the bathtub. There he saw a body lying in the bathtub with blood dripping on the floor. Haoxuan carefully walked towards the body and drawn the shower curtain to the side.
It was a middle aged woman around her 50's with her hair sprawled all over the bloody water and hands dangling from the bathtub. Her face was white as paper, eyes closed and lips white with a purple hue for soaking in the water for how many hours. Seeing her, Wang Haoxuan didn't know if she is the owner of the house or it's acquaintance. Wang Haoxuan then moved his line of sight to the woman's neck, he saw a deep wound seemingly caused by a sharp object where the blood is coming from. Thinking that it was suicide, he decided to offer a silent prayer to the middle aged woman. After some time, he then decided to exit the room with his back facing the bathtub.
With Wang Haoxuan's guard down, he didn't noticed that after turning his back, the woman that he thought was dead, began standing up from its position. It then slowly moved out of the bathtub towards Wang Haoxuan with both her hands outstretched like it was about to hug someone.
