Zhao Lexi opened the broken latch, first inserted the handle of the Mo Dao into the door handle, and fixed the two doors together. Then he found a mop and replaced the Mo Dao.

During this period, she cleared the seven zombies in the small hall on the first floor and found the door to the stairwell.

Then walk up gently.

There were not many zombies in the stairwell and they did not pose a threat to Zhao Lexi. She quickly climbed up to the 18th floor and opened the stairwell door.

The door of the stairwell is facing the doors of the two straight staircases. There is a small aisle in the middle, and there is a passage on each side, which is H-shaped. There are households on both sides, four on one side.

Zhao Lexi went to the left first. Two of the four doors were open and it was quiet inside.

She walked in and took a look. The house didn't look messy, but it was empty. Thinking of the number of zombies in the mall downstairs, Zhao Lexi suspected that all the residents had gone downstairs?

When she reached the third door, Zhao Lexi pushed it. The door was locked. She knocked lightly, and there was a thumping echo from inside.

anyone?

She knocked again, but there was still a thumping echo inside.

Or zombies?
Zhao Lexi pushed the door with some force and it opened.

As expected, a male zombie jumped towards her. Unfortunately, this zombie was too slow and was kicked out by Zhao Lexi. The back of its head hit the wall, its bones shattered, and it died.

She walked to the fourth door at the end. The door was locked, but there was no response when she knocked.

"Teacher Lan, are you there?"

Still no sound.

Zhao Lexi hesitated, pushed hard, and opened the door.

As soon as I walked in, I saw a young woman lying on the couch in the living room. Her face was pale and thin, but the faint rise and fall of her chest showed that she was still alive.

It's a pity that it's not Teacher Lan.

There was an empty bottle on the table and a half-open bag of biscuits.

Zhao Lexi took a bottle of mineral water, opened the cap, and gently put it to her lips.

The woman subconsciously pursed her chapped lips.

Zhao Lexi gave her another sip of water, and after a while, the woman slowly opened her eyes.

Maybe he is too thin, and his big eyes are a bit scary.

When she saw the water bottle in Zhao Lexi's hand, her eyes were full of longing, but she didn't move and opened her mouth to say "thank you"! However, her body was too dehydrated and she opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

Zhao Lexi took the initiative to hand over the water.

The woman hesitated, took it, and immediately took a few more sips.

Then he softly uttered two words that were almost inaudible: "Thank you."

"I'm looking for someone, Lan Ying. She lives on this floor. Do you know her?"

The woman asked softly: "Name."

"Lan Ying, she is in her forties but looks very young. She lives alone."

The woman shook her head.

Zhao Lexi was disappointed.

"Building A? Are you sure?"

"Ah?" Zhao Lexi didn't respond. The woman took a sip of water, gestured with her hands and whispered: "This, building A, that, building B." Zhao Lexi's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, she is not here. Building, that must be that building!”

She then asked: "Do you know why the doors of the two nearby rooms are open? When I came up, I saw many people in the mall downstairs. What was going on?"

The woman wanted to speak, but it was difficult to make her voice come out. Zhao Lexi knew that she was forcing someone to do something difficult, so she said, "You can rest for a while and tell me later. I'll go out and take a look."

Seeing that Zhao Lexi was about to leave, the woman grabbed her arm and shook her head vigorously. The meaning was very obvious, not letting her go, and slowly uttered two words: "Danger."

The woman obviously knew something, but she couldn't tell it fully right now.

Zhao Lexi asked tentatively: "I'll just take a look at this floor, okay?"

The woman hesitated, but her reaction was no longer so violent.

"Upstairs?"

"Go downstairs?" The woman began to shake her head vigorously again.

Zhao Lexi understood that the woman would not let him go downstairs.

The woman forcefully spat out a few words: "There is something, murder! There is a monster."

Zhao Lexi hurriedly stopped her and said, "Stop talking. Just rest for a while. I'll take a look on this floor and make sure I don't go downstairs! Don't worry, I can protect myself if I can come up. I'm an evolved person." !”

The woman slowly let go of her hand.

Zhao Lexi walked to the other side of Channel H. The doors of the two houses were open on that side as well. She went in and walked around each house. There was no one and it was not messy. There was just no water or food.

Zhao Lexi was even more certain that these people went downstairs to look for food, and then for some reason, they all turned into zombies.

The other two rooms were filled with zombies, which she killed.

She walked up several floors until she reached the 23rd floor. The situation was almost the same, but she found no other living people, so she was not ready to continue going up.

Returning to the stairwell, it was very quiet. There were no corpses below the 23rd floor. Looking up from the 23rd floor, there were no zombies visible to the naked eye.

Looking at the empty and quiet stairwell, Zhao Lexi had the illusion that today was just an ordinary morning and she was just a student who got up early to go to school. She even felt a little guilty in her heart because she didn't carry a schoolbag.

A student who doesn't carry a schoolbag is equivalent to going to the battlefield without a gun. These words that calloused her ears echoed in her ears, but now she not only doesn't have to carry a schoolbag, but also can't use a gun.

When returning to the 18th floor, Zhao Lexi thought about what the woman had just said and felt dubious. After all, she had just come up from downstairs and encountered nothing but ordinary zombies. But she listened to the advice and did not continue going down.

Just when she was about to walk out of the stairwell and go back to find the woman, Zhao Lexi heard a strange noise coming from downstairs. She lowered her head and looked down at the stairs!

The steps went down one level after another. I couldn't see anything, and I didn't know what was making the noise. Suddenly, Zhao Lexi smelled a stench, like raw meat that had been left in a hot and stuffy environment for many days, which made her feel nauseous.

This smell is coming up from below, getting stronger and stronger and stinkier! This is the smell that Zhao Lexi smelled while wearing a mask. If she hadn't worn a mask, she really didn't know what she would have been like.

But strangely, she still couldn't see anything.

Something must be approaching!
But why can't you see it?

Is it invisible?
Zhao Lexi made a judgment and at the same time took out the Mo Dao given to her by her elder brother and held it tightly in her hand.

An enemy that could not be seen but could be smelled. Zhao Lexi could not be sure of his strength and could not help but feel a little nervous. She could only judge the distance between that thing and herself by intuition, and make precise counterattacks at the moment it launched an attack. .

This required her to be faster than him, and she didn't dare to slack off at all.

The stench was getting closer and closer, almost knocking her out. Zhao Lexi couldn't help but think, if the stench got any worse, she wouldn't want to fight, she would just run away! Just when she was about to choose to vomit between fighting and escaping, a zombie beast over one meter high suddenly appeared out of thin air on the corner platform between the 17th and 18th floors.

No, to be precise, it is not a zombie beast, because although it is on all fours, it has a human head. (End of chapter)
