Song Qi gave the green crystal to Zhuo Nian. Zhuo Nian returned the instant noodles and biscuits they had given and allowed them to use the kitchen.
During this time, Song Qi introduced their origins to the girl.
They were all students from G University. Because the end of the world arrived before the holidays, the densely populated university was quickly overrun by zombies. They escaped together and, judging by their rough direction, were also heading north.
They didn't know about the red rain or why they were fleeing north before. It was purely because most of their families were in the north, and they were traveling together. Now, they didn't know the specific dangers of the red rain, but they had witnessed the changes in the zombies from yesterday to today. Even if she hadn't warned them, they would have soon realized.
The girl who had been speaking earlier was named Zhou Shanshan. Song Qi introduced the others, but Zhuo Nian wasn't interested.
"Friend, what are your doors and windows made of? How are they so strong?"
"My name is Xiao Nian."
"Oh." Song Qi finally heard the other person introduce herself and was moved by his own chatter.
Finally, she was willing to tell him her name.
"Then may I call you Miss Xiao? Thank you very much for taking us in."
Especially after witnessing the sturdiness of his doors and windows.
With this setup, if they hadn't entered here, they would have been certain to have zombies break in and flee everywhere, possibly even dying.
"These zombies are too strange. Yesterday they were like they were frozen, and today they're suddenly so agile. I was almost caught."
"Alas, who could say otherwise? Look outside, they're still guarding us. Miss Xiao, your doors and windows..."
"They are very strong, don't worry."
To break in, they would have to break her formation first, something no one in this world could do.
"That's good, that's good."
Song Qi felt fortunate again.
But the others were still uneasy. They assigned people to guard the doors and windows so that if the zombies broke in, they could resist immediately.
As for Zhuo Nian, she seemed completely unfazed by the zombies blocking her door. She sat comfortably on the sofa eating, occasionally touching her boyfriend's hand.
They couldn't see his face, but judging by his fair, slender hands with well-defined knuckles, he must be quite handsome.
Song Qi watched her actions and sighed inwardly. They had said that fever was also a precursor to turning into a zombie. She dared to sit so close, even holding hands intimately, truly fearless.
Of course, he kept such thoughts to himself. They were still staying at her place. If they offended her and she kicked them out, they would surely die.
The three people assigned to the kitchen quickly cooked the instant noodles. They added ham and braised eggs, which tasted much better than just adding hot water. Seeing Zhuo Nian looking at them frequently, Song Qi cautiously asked, "Miss Xiao, would you like some?"
Zhuo Nian had only drunk porridge earlier and her mouth felt incredibly bland. Of course, she had no reason to refuse now.
But she didn't like to take advantage of others.
She took out two packs of instant noodles and a piece of ham. "Make me a bowl, and the rest will be your reward."
Song Qi was overjoyed.
More than ten minutes later, a bowl of instant noodles piled high with ham slices appeared before Zhuo Nian. They had only taken one pack of noodles, and she had given them all the ham, sliced.
Zhuo Nian found it a bit overwhelming and took a bowl, scooping some out. She gave the rest to them.
The seven of them had eaten the most instant noodles and biscuits on their journey, and they were almost getting sick of it. Being able to eat large pieces of meat made them speechless with joy.
At the same time, some people were secretly keeping an eye on things.
While they were cooking in the kitchen, they also observed the contents of the kitchen. Apart from pots and pans, there were no supplies, nor could they see any food. It seemed she had hidden the food elsewhere.
After eating, the zombies were still guarding the doors and windows, showing no signs of leaving. Su Dan Novel Network.
Zhuo Nian yawned on the sofa. Seeing them all sitting on chairs and yawning, she picked up the person lying on the sofa.
As she walked towards her bedroom, she said, "The bedroom on the far right used to be my parents'. They turned into zombies and died. If you don't mind, you can rest. Don't mess with anything inside."
Regardless of whether they accepted the offer to rest, their first action was to express their gratitude.
Song Qi apologized to her very sincerely. Seeing her carry someone into a room and close the door, he looked at his companions who were clearly unwell and constantly drowsy. He said, "You should all go and rest. Take turns resting to conserve your strength."
Someone also suggested, "I think the doors and windows here are indeed very strong. Look, they've been hitting outside for so long and haven't gotten in. Why don't we all rest together?"
But others disagreed.
It was the end of the world. Carrying so many supplies made them like walking temptations. What if that woman had malicious intentions and killed them all, just for a nap? It wasn't worth losing their lives for.
Song Qi nodded. "Liu Yun is right. It's better to be safe than sorry. Someone still needs to keep watch. You all go to sleep first, I'll be on guard first."
"One person isn't safe. I'll go with you."
In the end, Song Qi and Zhou Shanshan were the first to stand guard.
