Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

"That's good to hear... Speaking of the elder, do you know how I can meet him?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"Um... The only way to meet him is every Tuesday. He gives out extra food and supplies for people that need it."

"Really? He's that nice of a person?"

"Yes... But his son is the opposite. And he always protects his son no matter what." The man murmured as his face darkened, having flashbacks of the past.

"Hm... Okay. One last thing before I go, do you know how armed each station is?"

The man thought for a second, then took out a map of the metro lines from the back.

"Most stations have at least five to ten people armed with pistols. But as you go towards the city center, they are almost armed to the brim."

"How armed do you mean by that?"

"Riot gears, rifles, and even explosive and running metro lines... But I heard that a few of the stations towards the center have been infighting a lot among each other over resources."

"I see. Well, great meeting you today... Actually, sorry to ask this, but how did you lose your arms?"

Xiaoyun couldn't help but ask the question that had been eluding him since the very beginning.

The man froze for a second but eventually spilled the bean after seeing all the canned food on the ground.

"I was in the Narcotics Police force working as an undercover officer... But I lost it when I leaked one of the multi-million operation drug trafficking nodes in Southeast Asia...

Now, most of the survival groups don't even allow me to join their search party... I'm pathetic, aren't I?"

Seeing the man chuckle at his own misfortune, a sharp pain stroked right into Xiaoyun's heart as if the hero before he deserved better.

"Don't feel bad for me. I knew what I signed up for. You should be feeling bad for my wife having to deal with me and taking care of two kids.

She has sacrificed too much for this family already when she could have just left me to be with someone else."

The man stopped for a second as his face showed his determination for change, but it quickly died down as reality set in.

"Anyway, thank you for the food, kind sir—no need to worry about a disabled man like me. Some people are way worse off than me. I'm not the only one who's struggling."

Hearing the man's last words, Xiaoyun ended his thoughts of helping the man further, as he had already shown resilience in surviving in their way.

"Here's my business card... If you ever encounter someone from Luoping, just tell them Commander Songming told you to meet him."

---

When Xiaoyun left the tent, he came out as a different person.

His mind was completely changed. As he walked past the islands of beggars selling everything they had, from their bodies to even their kids, he felt empathy for them.

But he knew that, like the man described earlier, helping one person would never solve all of their issues.

"I need to hurry... But there's no way for them to just arrive here without getting noticed. I have to do this myself."

Xiaoyun hesitated for a second as he had second thoughts about using military force to save everyone here. However, he quickly dismissed it after remembering there were still millions of zombies in the city.

As he continued walking towards the restroom, he noticed Kate already standing by the door.

"You finish?" Kate curiously asked as the two headed towards a corner with no one nearby.

"Yeah... What information did you learn from that dude?"

"Well, the faction in Foshan is a lot more complicated than I thought..."

A short explanation later...

"He really was being honest with me," Xiaoyun murmured as all the information that Kate had told him matched up with what the man had told him.

"The last piece of information I got out of him was that some of the stations are very anti-outsiders to the point that they outright ban anyone that had contact with the outside world."

"Huh? Why? How would they even get supplies from the outside?"

"Because they once had an interaction with an outsider group, and it almost caused an outbreak within the entire metro.

So, going outside and inside is extremely limited to select groups and is within the city's metro area proximity.

Also, one of the stations apparently developed an underground farm, which is why it is able to support so many people down here."

Hearing Kate's explanation, a plan started to develop in Xiaoyun's head, but he still needed to confirm it with the last piece of the puzzle.

"Anyway, what did you learn from the sell-wife guy?" Kate curiously asked.

"About the same stuff... Also, don't call him that. He wasn't given a choice." Xiaoyun stated with a stern voice.

"Okay... Well, what do we do now? Going back or trying to do something here?"

"We're going back to Lianzheng's place."

---

"Man, that felt so refreshing."

Tingliao stretched out his arm as he jumped straight onto his mattress. However, His body looked even more exhausted than earlier.

"You idiot. Why did you try to fight that dude just for a spot to shower? Couldn't you just tell me first?"

Lianzheng's face wasn't happy at all as he held a bottle of dit da jow and applied it directly to the bruises around his arms and back.

"I heard everyone talking about his wife taking Zhezhe's spot. I'm not just going to let that slide——ouch!"

"Okay? And is fighting after the fact going to change anything? You know who you were fighting?"

"I don't know, but I'll do the same again and again. I don't regret it a single bit——Shit!"

Lianzheng sighed as he shook his head at his helpless younger brother, which clearly had changed his view towards Zhezhe.

All it took was a short talk in the shower, where he pointed out Tingling's gentle size down below compared to his, which permanently changed Tingling's mind regarding Zhezhe.

"You... *Sigh* size doesn't matter as much as you think you know. What matters is doing it with someone you love, you silly."

Despite Lianzheng's lecture, Tingling's mind was completely set in stone.

"Zhezhe is the only love I'll ever need. She's my precious and the only one I ever care about——Ouch! Can you be lighter?"

"What a change of mind... You know, just because someone has a small body, it doesn't mean she's shallow inside——"

"Shut up! I don't want to hear it. I'm perfectly normal. You're the one that's the outlier."

Lianzheng didn't try to argue back this time, as he was happy with Lianzheng finally agreeing to be with Zhezhe.

"What you guys talking about?" Lingling's voice appeared.

The two sisters finally came back from their shower, and they entered the room in their pajamas.

"Congrats, Zhezhe. This dummy over here is finally agreeing to be with you," Lianzheng pointed out immediately.

"Really? You aren't joking?" Zhezhe's voice couldn't contain her excitement as her dreams were finally coming true.

Lianzheng pressed on the bruises extra hard, which made Tingling yell in agreement and pain at the same time.

"Anyway, I can finally sleep with you, babe... Always feel so weird having to sleep with someone so stinky."

Lianzheng's joke made both Lingling and Zhezhe laugh, but Tingling could only endure the pain as his older brother continued applying dit da jow on the bruises.

"What happened to his back?" Zhezhe curiously asked.

"He heard your shower spot was taken, so he fought with that wife's husband... And, of course, he would have lost even harder if it wasn't for me saving him."

"Aww, how nice of him," Lingling murmured as she finally felt relief that her biggest worry was now gone.

Zhezhe's heart was instantly melted as she couldn't believe what Tingliao had done for her.

"Thank you..." Zhezhe quietly whispered.

"No problem, I'll do it again if I——Ouch!"

"Not happening, you cheeky bastard. It seems like you haven't learned your lesson——"

"Ouch! Okay, okay, I'll stop! Let go of me!"

The two girls on the side couldn't help but laugh as the two started fighting each other, albeit extremely one-sided.

They eventually stopped fooling around as the clock finally hit ten, choosing to sleep early as tomorrow had a lot of work ahead of them.

As the lights turned off, the two older couples instantly fell asleep as they were already extremely tired for the day.

However, the two younger ones who were sleeping together for the first time were the polar opposite, with their eyes wide open as they were too nervous to sleep.

"Zhezhe... You ever had sex before?" Tingliao suddenly asked, whispering it quietly underneath the blanket.

"No... Have you?" Zhezhe asked back.

"No... But I had seen videos about it... Have you seen it?"

"Yeah... I-I had seen it when my classmate showed a video of it."

As the room fell into silence again, the two could notice each other's faces blushing red through the dimmed light from the night light.
