Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

Chapter 348: Chapter 348: Exploring the Metro



"Sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you." Tingliao apologized as he finally noticed the tear on Zhezhe's face.

"Tingliao isn't wrong. Zhezhe is a little bit too small. But everybody here is scraping by. She just lacks nutrients to grow."

The woman felt a little bad, but she couldn't deny the fact that Zhezhe barely looked grown up at all.

"Lingling, you don't need to defend this idiot. He just can't understand what it means to have a woman who loves him."

Lianzheng started rolling up his sleeves as if he was about to start a fight with his younger brother.

But it only added more fuel to the fire as Tingliao had enough of enduring Lianzheng's pressure.

"What? Am I wrong for telling the truth? It's easy for you to say when your wife is already fully mature——"

Before Tingliao could finish talking, he was interrupted by Lianzheng's punch right at his face.

"I failed our parents raising you like an arrogant dickhead. You don't deserve anyone——"

"Please stop! It's okay. I understand... Tingliao is right. I'm not fit for him."

Zhezhe's outburst made Lianzheng stop, but his face clearly looked irritated as he had been trying to get the two together for a long time.

"I don't care how you feel. You're going to be with her no matter what... Do you want to force her to go to one of those single-women facilities?"

"I... I don't."

Tingliao's response finally made all three of them look satisfied, especially Zhezhe, as it reignited her hope to be with him.

"Ahem, let's go take a shower. Today is the free water day." Lingling suggested as she tried to lighten up the mood a little.

"Yeah, let's go take a shower. I haven't taken one for almost a week now."

The two on the other mattress remained in an awkward silence, but Tingliao's hand didn't reject Zhezhe's hand when she reached for his.

"Xiaoyun, where do we go now?" Kate curiously asked as the two stopped right before entering the two brother's house.

"Let's go back and interview one of those people back in the station... They probably couldn't care less if they have seen us before or not."

After walking all the way back to the metro station at the beginning, the two headed inside one of the nearby bathrooms.

Then, they waited inside one of the stalls for everyone to leave before turning off their invisible cloak.

"Wear this. We can't be too obvious."

Xiaoyun handed a casual T-shirt and jeans to Kate, similar to what he had seen outside earlier when he was walking past those people holding up signs.

Kate didn't hesitate a single bit as she took the cloth and began changing right before Xiaoyun's eye, not realizing how much it simulated his lower body and his brain.

Her black bra could barely hold her boobs, with chest wraps hiding her enormous assets that could rival Yuqi's size.

Meanwhile, Kate's lower body only wore black panties, which perfectly complemented her body as it gave a sense of mystery about what was underneath.

"What are you waiting for?" Kate asked as she had already finished changing, with Xiaoyun still holding his clothes in hand.

"Oh, sorry."

As Xiaoyun began taking his clothes, Kate immediately noticed the massive bulge below and realized what she had just done, changing right in front of his face.

But she remained silent as she waited for him to finish changing, not bringing it up as the two put their stuff inside their backpack and left the restroom.

"Where do we go now?" Kate asked as if nothing had happened.

"Hm... Let's go to that family over there."

The two of them headed straight to the earlier sign advertising selling wives for food, only to find a man holding a piece of bread, about to make a deal.

"One bread for one night, right?" The man in the suit asked as he held up the bread, holding it before the two little kids' eyes on purpose.

"I... Yes."

The man reluctantly agreed to it, but the woman next to him didn't show any signs of hatred toward his husband.

"Very well. Here's your bread."

As the man in the suit threw the bread toward the two kids, the husband could only watch his wife follow the man down the railroad.

However, the man in the suit was rudely interrupted as he accidentally ran right into Xiaoyun and Kate, who were just about to head toward her husband.

"Watch where you are going——Oh my god..."

The man with the suit was stunned as he couldn't believe Kate's beauty right before his eyes.

The red hair was so unique, something he had only seen in pictures before. Not to mention her pale skin and blue eyes, which perfectly matched what a perfect foreign girl looked like in their dreams.

"Excuse me, you're in the way."

The man ignored Xiaoyun's comment, and his attention was purely on Kate's face. He moved closer to her and bowed down a little before her.

"M'lady, how can I help you?" The man asked in perfect English.

Kate looked over to Xiaoyun as if she wasn't sure how to respond. But Xiaoyun only gave her a grin and a wink.

"Perhaps we can talk it out in the bathroom? I really need to go right now." Kate asked, her voice sounding extremely weak.

"Of course, there's a restroom right there right now."

As the two headed over to the bathroom, Xiaoyun turned his attention over to the woman, who looked dumbfounded at what had happened.

"Hey, can I ask a few questions? I can pay you with food... I just want to ask some basic questions, and that's it." Xiaoyun asked kindly.

"Um... okay. Where do you want to ask?"

"Let's go back to your tent."

A few seconds later...

As the two arrived back at the metro station, the husband was confused. It hadn't even been five minutes since his wife had left with the man in a suit.

"Hey man, this is your wife, right?" As Xiaoyun asked his question, he noticed the left arm was missing.

"Yes... Who are you?" The man curiously asked as his wife went over to be with the kids.

"I'm just a merchant traveling all over the country, but I got lost after traveling all the way here.

I just accidentally ran into your wife... Anyway, I have a few questions about this place. Can we go inside the tent first?"

The man didn't trust any of Xiaoyun's words, but he couldn't care less about whether Xiaoyun was lying or not. So the two entered the tent before zipping the entrance, not letting anyone from the outside see.

"What do you want to know?" The man asked with caution in his voice.

"Do you know who's the leader of this base——"

"Nobody. There's no one at the top if that's what you are asking."

"What?"

Xiaoyun's face looked a little confused as he couldn't understand what the man meant, but the man explained it again.

"There's no single leader. There's an elder that leads each station, and they discuss among each other when a problem arises."

"Ah, I see... How many people live here?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"As in the whole metro?" The man asked.

"Yeah, the whole metro."

"About... Fifty thousand? I'm not sure exactly. But I know that we control the entire metro line for Foshan."

"The entire line? Really?"

Xiaoyun was a little surprised, as Han Bang had sent him a letter in the past, indicating that the metro was practically a death trap to clear as it was extremely tight combat.

Combined with a lack of light and unknown variables inside the metro, Xiaoyun allowed Han Bang to simply blow up the entire entrance to eliminate the risk of repeating the same mistake in Qingyuan.

"Yes, really. The local government realized the outbreak was going to be much more severe than what the news described it to be.

So, a day before the outbreak, they shut down all the metro lines and stationed some of the police forces here.

My family and I coincidentally lived near this station, and we ran straight down because one of my relatives was in the police force and told me about it."

Hearing the man's explanation, Xiaoyun started to get a sense of what had happened in the past for Foshan.

"So most survivors in Foshan are all located down in the metro lines?" Xiaoyun asked again.

"You're going to need to ask one of the elders for the exact details on that... But the few times that I had headed out, a few small survival groups lived outside."

"I see... Thank you for answering so many questions... Here's your payment."

Xiaoyun took several canned foods that he had just made up on the spot from inside his backpack and put them right into the man's hand.

"T-This is too much. I-I can't accept this."

"Don't worry about it. I got plenty more outside... Oh, right, I probably should give you something to defend yourself, or else people are just going to rob you."

Just as Xiaoyun was deciding whether to give him a gun or a tactical shovel, the man quickly shook his head.

"No need, sir. The elderly here enforce stealing and using force severely. What you are thinking of doesn't happen in this station."
