Chapter 2576: Chapter 1169: Desperate Situation, Fireline Rescue!
Lin Baici’s jeep couldn’t speed up because there were abandoned cars on the street, and some sections were completely blocked.
The meteor shower fell too suddenly. Although the Jiuzhou Security Bureau had issued an evacuation warning in advance, Haijing’s population was too vast, causing chaos naturally.
However, there were no citizens left on the street now, except for the occasional patrolling soldiers, it was eerily quiet.
The citizens must have already taken shelter.
Lin Baici was driving with one hand on the steering wheel and using his other hand to call Gu Qingxiang on his phone.
Haijing Polytechnic was not in the contaminated area, and since Lin Baici had just changed his SIM card, he instantly received dozens of missed calls and unread message notifications, including Gu Qingxiang’s. So, Lin Baici knew she was okay.
Now, with urgent matters handled, Lin Baici intended to ask Gu Qingxiang about her situation, but the call wouldn’t go through.
"Could be there’s no signal in the shelter, right?"
Lin Baici made a call to Li Minli, asking her to help locate the counselor’s whereabouts, while he himself rushed to Haijing Normal University as fast as he could.
...
Haijing Normal, teaching building, fifth floor, classroom 5009.
A group of students were hiding here.
They had dismantled the desks and chairs and piled them at the front and back doors, trying to block the monsters attempting to break in.
A few boys armed with mops, buckets, and wooden sticks crouched under the window, occasionally peeking outside.
"Damn it, still no signal!"
A pretty girl wanted to scream and throw a tantrum like she usually would, but she didn’t dare, because there were monsters in the hallway outside the classroom.
"Bai Lele, keep your voice down, if you attract the monsters, we’ll all be dead!"
A sturdy boy crouched on the ground, holding a wooden stick.
He had a cigarette between his lips, taking deep drags from time to time.
The floor in front of him was already littered with cigarette butts.
Bai Lele got angry upon hearing this and started to lash out: "You guys are useless, can’t you protect us and lead us out?"
The boys felt embarrassed from Bai Lele’s words and their faces showed an awkward expression.
The cigarette-smoking guy raised his eyebrows, casting a sideways glance, sizing Bai Lele up.
Is this the time to act high and mighty and throw a princess tantrum?
Do you believe I won’t just beat you down?
Damn it!
We’re all going to die anyway, why not enjoy it for once?
Thinking about those students turned into zombies in the hallway, the cigarette-smoking guy felt there was little hope of surviving, and glared hard at Bai Lele.
No wonder she’s the class goddess,
really sexy!
Rather than just pretty, Bai Lele leaned more towards sexy because she dressed so well.
A thin, off-shoulder cashmere sweater on top, with a pleated skirt below, revealing her panties if she moved a bit too much.
Her legs were wrapped in shiny black leggings, clearly showing the tight, fleshy appeal, making one want to slap them to test the feel!
Bai Lele wore short brown high-heeled boots that perfectly matched her beige coat.
Bai Lele immediately noticed Wang Haifeng’s gaze, her heart jolting. To suppress Wang Haifeng’s aura and deflate his arrogance, Bai Lele shouted at a boy crouching in the corner.
"Li Wei, what are you hiding in the corner for? Laying an egg?"
Li Wei shrank his head like a turtle upon being scolded.
He didn’t even dare to retort, nor did he dare to look at Bai Lele.
"Hmph!"
Bai Lele snorted in satisfaction.
Men should be trained like dogs.
"Hah!"
Wang Haifeng, looking at Li Wei’s cowardly demeanor, spat on the ground.
"Damn it, I’m no good student, how great would it be to skip class like usual, why did I have to come to class today?"
Cui Xiang, looking at the dead phone, found himself unable to call outside for help, even unable to open the notes app to write a last word. He broke down and suddenly smashed the phone on the ground.
Everyone jumped at Cui Xiang’s action.
"What the hell are you crazy?"
Wang Haifeng growled, rushing over to grab his collar: "Anyone making noise again, I’ll throw them out to feed the zombies!"
No one knew exactly why, they were just having a normal class, and suddenly a black fog enveloped them, then zombies appeared, biting anyone they saw.
The zombies were just like in film and games, their bodies rotting, smelling of decay, attacking every person like mad dogs.
Anyone bitten by them would turn into zombies even if they didn’t die.
From the window, looking at the campus, many zombies were prowling around, as for students, none of the breathing ones could be seen.
"We can’t just stay here and wait to die; we must escape as soon as possible, or the zombies will keep increasing!"
Bai Lele was scared. The longer it dragged on, the less her personal safety could be assured.
"It’s too dangerous to go out, better wait for rescue!"
A girl weakly opposed.
"Wait for rescue?"
Bai Lele sneered: "You think you’re the child of a big shot? Or do you hold crucial knowledge that’s irreplaceable?"
"Miao Xiaoying, you’re just a super ordinary college student, do you think when disaster strikes, the rescue team will come for you first?"
"Been dreaming too much, haven’t you?"
Everyone’s faces turned sour because Bai Lele’s words sounded quite reasonable.
"Think about it, we saw such a big meteor shower followed by fog, so they must be related!"
"Also, the black fog drifted in from the east, who knows how far it spread and how many it swept over before it got here?"
