Living Dead's

Chapter 35 - Rescue

Xi Zihe watched with his mouth open a white drone measuring nearly a meter across that was carrying cardboard paper bearing the words SOS.

With its four propellers, the drone floated right in front of them. It was as if the person controlling it was afraid if they could not see the huge SOS writing.

The white cardboard paper was blown away, but the word printed on it was clear and striking.

Shen Yuan saw that the drone had a camera, which meant that people there were watching their movements.

Shen Yuan heard Xi Zihe's voice filled with shock, "What the hell is this? Is there anyone asking for our help?"

"How's Captain? Save it?" Lu Lin asked with a scratch on his head. To be honest this situation is quite strange, there are people asking for help with drones. After seeing this, Lu Lin felt that his imagination was still lacking in height.

Xi Zihe nodded his incantation, "Definitely. Save." He turned and looked directly at the camera. "Take us to your place."

Shen Yuan who saw his stupidity could not help but rub his forehead tiredly.

Shen Yuan said, "He can't hear our voices, stupid."

"Pffft-" Song Yi tried to hold back her laughter, but to no avail. "Ehem, sorry."

Yang Ruisi remarked, "Captain, I feel that your IQ has dropped to the level of being on par with Lu Lin's IQ."

"Why compare it to my IQ ?!" Naturally, they ignored him.

Suddenly Xi Zihe realized his mistake, and could not help but feel ashamed.

Unable to rely on them, Shen Yuan personally got into the car and picked up the cardboard cutouts. Using a marker, he wrote a sentence on it with a large and clear writing.

[Show me the way. We'll save you]

Shen Yuan held up the cardboard right in front of the camera.

On the other hand, He Zhao who could read the writing clearly couldn't help but feel joy and enthusiasm in his heart.

He controls his drone as a road guide and returns to the direction his apartment is located.

Seeing the drone slowly flying away, everyone quickly got into the car. Xi Zihe followed closely in the direction that the drone had crossed.

After about 15 minutes, the drone climbed into one of the apartment buildings, and disappeared on the balcony of the house on the 6th floor.

Moments later, someone's head was seen poking out. A teenager around 15 or 16 years old excitedly waved his hand at them.

Xi Zihe stopped his car a few meters from the apartment building, and observed the surroundings.

"A teenager?" Yang Ruisi looked over from behind the passenger window.

"Is it just one person?" Behind, Song Yi commented.

Shen Yuan looked at the windows of each floor, but there was no movement or signs of life other than the teenager.

"Possibility." Shen Yuan turned to look at Xi Zihe, "Try honking her horn."

"okay."

Tiiinn

A loud honking sound resounded in the empty highway. His voice entered every alley and building.

After a while of waiting, there was still no response.

Xi Zihe sighed, "It seems that there are no survivors other than the teenager."

Xi Zihe looked at the state of the apartment with his binoculars. He could only see a few zombies roaming around in the apartment lobby.

"I'll take care of the zombies outside, you go in and save the boy." Shen Yuan immediately made his decision.

Thinking about it again, Xi Zihe agreed to the idea. He said, "It's dangerous that you go alone, take Lu Lin with you."

"okay! Let's go, Dad!" Lu Lin responded enthusiastically.

Shen Yuan opened the car door and exited, his gaze falling on the roadside motorcycle whose driver had already died from a collision with a tree.

He immediately climbed on that motorcycle, the next second Lu Lin immediately jumped to sit behind him.

Before leaving, Shen Yuan said to Xi Zihe, "I'll herd the zombies towards the southeast."

Xi Zihe nodded in understanding. Southeast is the opposite direction to their reverse flow, so they do not need to cross paths with these zombies.

The roar of the motor engine began to echo in the streets. The exhaust slightly gives off black smoke before it becomes stable.

They saw Shen Yuan spur his motor up to the front of the entrance of the apartment and stop.

Shen Yuan threw a nail bomb, and it lodged at the entrance of the apartment lobby with a twang.

The bomb exploded, sending hundreds of spikes around it. The nail follows the angle made by the iron petals that are in the can.

Subtracted by the heat of the explosion, the hot spikes shot out and shot the heads and legs of the zombies within a radius of nearly ten meters.

At that moment, most of the zombies fell down on the floor.

As soon as that happened, Xi Zihe and the others snuck in and climbed through the emergency stairs.

A few zombies that could still move started chasing after Shen Yuan who was on the side of the road. Shen Yuan deliberately lingered around the gas, and had yet to leave the place.

Behind him, Lu Lin roared uncontrollably, "Wow, father! You're so cool!"

This guy is too wild!

"Shut up and do your job!"

On the other hand, Xi Zihe managed to climb the stairs up to the 6th floor. Several times they encountered zombies in the dimness of the emergency stairs. But all managed to clear them smoothly.

"Where's the kid's house?" Xi Zihe asked as he adjusted his breath after running up the stairs.

"Two doors from this direction." Yang Ruisi remembered that well when looking from under the apartment.

They ran and stopped in front of the brown door. Xi Zihe immediately knocked on the door. "Son, we're here now. Open the door."

In the back, Yang Ruisi commented, "Why didn't I know that you already have children?"

Xi Zihe immediately glared at him, "Whispering!"

The door opened with a click. The pale and breathless faces of the teenagers appeared in front of them.

She cried and clasped Xi Zihe's arm, "Thank you, thank you very much!"

Xi Zihe patted his head to comfort him, "Let's get the hell out of here."

The teenager hurriedly wiped away her tears. "Please wait a minute, I'll bring my things."

Then he went back inside the house. Moments later he came out with a large suitcase.

"What's that?" Song Yi asked curiously.

"Ah. This is my drone." He looked at them timidly. "Can I take him?"

Yang Ruisi smiled, "Of course."

"What's your name?"

"My name is He Zhao."

Xi Zihe nodded, "Name good. Let's go."

They ran down the stairs, because the suitcase was too heavy, Song Yi offered to take it.

The stairs were dim, they came down carefully. Upon arriving at the third floor stairs, stood a person with rotting skin.

He Zhao who saw him suddenly his blood turned cold. Fear crept from the spine to the scalp, causing tingling and numbness.

The security guard stood up with a rotten intestine dangling out of his stomach. His eyes had turned grey.

He Zhao was so frightened that he subconsciously took a few steps back, desperately wanting to escape from that place. He recalled the moments of his mother's death, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Suddenly he felt his shoulders in a light pat. Xi Zihe's heavy voice entered his ears, "It's okay, you don't need to be afraid."

The next moment Yang Ruisi had already cut his neck until the zombie had fallen rolled on the stairs and did not move anymore.

Yang Ruisi moved past him and smiled at him, "Let's go, Xiao Zhao."

He Zhao nodded weakly, slowly walking past the zombie corpse and down the stairs.

Arriving outside the apartment, they saw no sign of Shen Yuan and Lu Lin.

Yang Ruisi looked to the right and left in confusion. "How far did they go? Why haven't you come back?"

Xi Zihe looked at the surroundings grimly, next he shouted loudly, "SHEN YUAN! LU LIN'S! BACK NOW!!"

Xi Zihe's voice echoed among the buildings. As for the people around him, they were desperately trying to cover their ears.

Moments later, an open tub car was seen turning through the intersection and stopping right in front of them.

Shen Yuan's cold face was seen in the driver's seat. "Your voice is heard up to 100 meters up there."

"Where is Lu Lin? Why are you back in the car?"

Shen Yuan gestured for them to look back. Inside the car tub, they saw Lu Lin sprawled unconscious.

"What's going on?"

Shen Yuan sighed, looking extremely tired and helpless, "We go first from here. I'll tell you the details."
