It’s Annoying I Want To Eat People

Lin Jingshu and Han Chi chatted awkwardly for a while when suddenly her father, who came over, pulled her away.

“Dad, what are you doing? Han Chi and I haven’t finished talking yet,” Lin Jingshu complained coquettishly.

“Silly daughter, don’t worry about that now. Let’s talk about it after this stage is over. I just talked to your Uncle Sun. This stage is not so easy. Those zombies may set feet on the island tonight. Therefore, you must stay by my side obediently and don’t run around, so that Dad can protect you.”

Lin Jingshu’s expression changed slightly when she heard what Lin Han said, and she said, “Then what should we do? I heard Uncle Sun say that there are a lot of zombies, but those zombies won’t find us.”     

Lin Han shook his head, “It’s hard to say. Let’s go step by step. That’s the only way. Anyway, don’t leave my sight. Dad will protect you.”

At night after four o’clock in the morning, before five in the morning, the crowd hiding in the underground escape channel suddenly felt the movement on the ground, and some people seemed to hear the cries of zombies. The cries of zombies were heard one after another, and the number was immeasurable.

The person who originally thought that the danger was far away, suddenly sat with trepidation and his body stiffened, not daring to move, for fear that one of his actions would cause the zombies on the ground to find him.

There were also several teenagers and children in the escape tunnel. The children were always very sensitive. When they heard the noise outside, they woke up, and looked at the adults who were holding them with panic and nervous expressions. As soon as a child was afraid, the first thing in their mind was of course to cry.

Children’s cries were contagious. When one child cried, the other children would follow.

Everyone in the underground passage held their breaths nervously. When a child cried, everyone was even more afraid. They were afraid that the zombies would detect the child’s cry and lead the zombies down.

If the zombies were really brought down, then they would only have to wait for death.

“Don’t let your child cry. Do you want to kill us?” The man sitting on the side stared at the child crying in fear, lowered his voice and said sternly to the child’s parents.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry,” the woman was afraid that the voice of the child would lead the group of zombies down. But whatever she said was of no use at all, and the child was still crying.

“I told him not to cry, it’s useless,” the woman couldn’t help her child, and she was sweating all over.

When Sun Jiaxi also heard the cry of the child, he hurried over and whispered, “If you don’t want everyone to die, then quickly cover the child’s mouth.” 

The child’s mouth was tightly covered and he could only cry in a muffled voice. After crying for about an hour or so, several children were tired of crying and fell asleep on the shoulders of their mother, father or relatives.

By seven o’clock in the morning, the zombies still didn’t find them hiding underground. Sun Jiaxi stood by the entrance and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, their finishing work was done strictly, and people’s odors and traces were handled very quickly. In that way, they should be able to stay alive until the beginning of spring. He only hoped that once the beginning of spring came, the weather could get warmer and the ice would melt.

All the people stayed in the underground passage for about 48 hours, which seemed as long as a month or even a year to them. All the people were feeling scared. That feeling was tantamount to going to the execution ground.

Two days had passed, and it was finally the beginning of spring.

Sun Jiaxi stood at the exit of the island’s border, and through the gap, carefully observed the changes in the ice surface. The sunlight outside was very good, and it already felt like a warm spring.

After a day or two, the ice would melt, and then they could leave.

Secretary Zhang saw that Sun Jiaxi was observing the situation outside, and followed him. When Sun Jiaxi got tired, he straightened up and moved his body.

Secretary Zhang stood aside and asked Sun Jiaxi very carefully, “Mayor Sun, what’s going on outside? When can we leave this place? There are so many zombies on top of our heads which makes everyone uneasy.”

Sun Jiaxi nodded, “How could I not know that everyone’s mood is very unstable, but there is no way, this is our only way.”

Sun Jiaxi sighed and stared at the dust on the ground in a daze, then remembered something and said, “I just took a closer look at the situation outside. The sun outside is very strong, and the temperature is gradually getting warmer. Although the ice surface is still there, there are already signs of it melting. After all, it is the beginning of spring. It’s starting to melt, but it won’t melt so fast. It is estimated that we will have to stay here for a day or two. Please tell everyone about the situation, so that everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.”

Secretary Zhang nodded with joy and told everyone the good news.

Since the zombies landed on the island, they hid and dared not even speak loudly, for fear that their voice would attract the zombies’ attention.

When everyone heard the good news from Secretary Zhang, the expressions originally mixed with anxiety, fear and despair also eased slightly.

“Just wait for another day or two at most and then you can leave.” 

Knowing the deadline, everyone in this airtight underground passage had hope.

They always thought about when this difficult waiting would end. But the more they thought about it, the slower the time passed, and the more tormented the waiting in the underground passage was.
