Chapter 14

    Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Wang took the initiative to open the door, stopped them, and asked, “Who are you?”

    Having witnessed the scene of zombies eating people several times, and having listened to the roars of zombies day and night for days, Xiao Wang’s expression was now very tired and haggard, with deep fear in his eyes.

    “Hello.” Ai Wei said, “We want to live here, so we are cleaning up the zombies here. Are you from here?”

    Xiao Wang looked at his calm and unafraid appearance, and his heart, which had been in fear and anxiety, seemed to be soothed, and he felt a little at ease.

    He had just seen from the window that these two people had killed many zombies outside, and he felt that it would be safer to follow them.

    Thinking of this, he put on a flattering expression and said with a smile to Ai Wei and Doctor Li, “Hello, big brothers, my name is Wang Zhi, and I am the chef in this manor. I just saw you fighting zombies outside, you are really amazing.”

    He complimented the two of them a few times, and then said, “You are cleaning up the zombies in the villa, right? I will go with you.” As he said that, he went back to the room and took a butcher knife.

    Ai Wei and Doctor Li did not refuse, so the three of them continued to clean up the remaining zombies.

    They spent half an hour killing all the zombies in the remaining rooms that could be opened, and the corpses were dragged to the garden for collective incineration.

    Several people wore gloves and masks, and it took a lot of time to dispose of the zombies’ corpses. Wang Zhi performed very actively, and nearly half of the zombies’ corpses were dragged to the incineration point by him.

    Ai Wei inspected the villa again and found no zombies had been missed. He planned to go out and pick up Xia Junchi and the others.

    Wang Zhi found the key to the gate in the security room and followed Ai Wei to pick up people like a lackey. He had already seen that Ai Wei’s combat power was obviously much higher than Doctor Li’s, and most of the zombies were killed by Ai Wei. Moreover, Doctor Li’s personality was a bit taciturn, and he was not as easy to talk to as Ai Wei, so he naturally preferred to please Ai Wei.

    Ai Wei had no objection to Wang Zhi’s help, so the three of them went to the garage, drove a Rolls Royce, and left the gate.

    That’s right, it’s a Rolls Royce. The owner of this manor is very rich, and the garage is lined with famous cars that are almost dazzling. There are several famous brands such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Rolls Royce, each worth at least millions.

    Unfortunately, Ai Wei was not very interested in cars, so he only took a few glances, then took off his sticky protective suit and got into the car.

    Outside the manor gate, not far away was where Xia Junchi and the others were. However, Ai Wei glanced over and saw that it was empty, with no one there.

    He couldn’t help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

    Xia Junchi and Han Lu would not leave for no reason, they must have encountered something.

    Could it be that there are zombies wandering nearby? Or are there any bad people coming over?

    The apocalypse has magnified the malice of human nature. After experiencing that group of juvenile offenders, Master Hong’s cult den, and the group of people in Sanhe Town just now, Ai Wei can’t help but worry now.

    Doctor Li was also a little anxious when he saw that Li Xiaxia was gone. He got out of the Ferrari and wanted to see if he could find any tire tracks on the ground. Fortunately, the car was not parked on the road, but outside the wall of the manor. If you look closely, you can see faint tire tracks.

    Judging from the direction of the tire tracks, Xia Junchi and the others should have gone north.

    Ai Wei took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Xia Junchi. But he saw a new message on WeChat, so he clicked it open. He saw the message: Two ability wolves suddenly appeared, we drove north.

    In order to avoid making noise in the villa and attracting zombies, Ai Wei and Doctor Li’s mobile phones were on silent, so he didn’t even notice that a message had arrived.

    “They went north, chase them quickly!” Ai Wei said as he quickly got into the car.

    Without saying a word, Doctor Li also got into the car and started it. “What exactly is going on?” Doctor Li asked.

    “Xia Junchi sent me a WeChat message saying that they encountered ability wolves and ran north.” Ai Wei said.

    Wang Zhi, who was in the car, heard that they were going to chase ability wolves, and his expression suddenly changed drastically. He said, “You can’t chase them, they are wolves, wolves are pack animals, do you want to be eaten by wolves?!” Ai Wei was also too anxious, he was only thinking that Xia Junchi and the others were in a critical situation now, and he had to race against time to save them. Hearing Wang Zhi say this at this time, he also felt a little sorry and said, “I’m sorry, I was a little too anxious, I should have let you get out of the car just now. But now that the car has driven so far, it’s not safe to leave you alone on the side of the road, so just come with us first. I am an ability user, and we are driving…”

    “No, I’m not going!” Wang Zhi shouted excitedly: “Those are ability wolves! Even if you are an ability user, can you kill ability wolves? Which of those mutated animals is not more powerful than ability users?! You can’t go! I want to go back, you quickly turn the car back!”

    Ai Wei couldn’t help but frown and said, “It is impossible for us to go back.”

    Although he felt a little sorry for Wang Zhi, it was impossible for him not to save Xia Junchi. Not to mention sending Wang Zhi back, he didn’t want to delay even a second of rescue time.

    “You are really crazy! That is a mutated wolf! Do you not want to live?! You don’t want to live, but I still want to live! Go back quickly!” Seeing this, Wang Zhi became angry and wanted to pull Doctor Li’s steering wheel.

    If it weren’t for the fact that Wang Zhi would be in danger alone without a car on this road where wolves might appear, Ai Wei really wanted to let him down now. Seeing that he was about to grab the steering wheel, he hurriedly pulled him back to the back seat, pressed him against the backrest, and said, “We must find people, if you don’t agree, I can let you out of the car now!”

    He had just killed hundreds of zombies, and the hostility on his body was much deeper than before. At this time, looking at Wang Zhi with a murderous look in his eyes, he immediately scared Wang Zhi into not daring to say anything.

    Wang Zhi felt that he might really kill himself. He couldn’t help but feel frightened and cold sweat broke out.

    Seeing him quiet down, Ai Wei finally let go of him. Doctor Li drove the car to the fastest speed, and before long, Ai Wei spotted a primary school math textbook on the ground with sharp eyes. It was Li Xiaxia’s book.

    Doctor Li’s eyes were a little red when he saw the book. He didn’t even stop the car, and continued to chase forward.

    Driving along the road, they didn’t know how far they had driven, and finally saw the car that Han Lu was driving at a bend. Two gray wolves, about two meters long and a circle larger than ordinary German shepherds, surrounded the car. They were panting heavily, staring at the people in the car with fierce eyes.

    “Hit them!” Ai Wei pointed at a wolf and said to Doctor Li.

    Doctor Li pointed the front of the car at the wolf and stepped on the accelerator.

    The two wolves had already noticed their arrival. Seeing their car crashing over, they immediately dodged to the side.

    Because these two wolves had been chasing the car for a long time before, they were now exhausted and panting, and their physical strength was much worse than before. Doctor Li didn’t hit them the first time, turned the car around, and hit the hind leg of a wolf the second time.

    Ai Wei only heard a “crack” sound, and the wolf’s hind leg should have been broken.

    The wolf that was not injured bared its fangs at them fiercely, and Doctor Li crashed into it again.

    The wolf with the broken leg got up and wanted to run, but because it was too slow, it was about to be hit by the car.

    Suddenly, the other wolf pounced towards the car, wanting to use its body to block the car. But it was knocked away by the speeding car. Doctor Li didn’t hold back, and after knocking the wolf away, he drove the car over the wolf’s body.

    The wolf let out a few screams, spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, and then lay on the ground without moving.

    The wolf with the broken leg saw that its companion was dead, and immediately let out a few painful howls. It probably understood that it was no match for these humans with its broken leg. After howling twice, it dragged its broken leg and turned around to run away.

    Doctor Li wanted to chase it, but saw that it had already burrowed into the forest next to the road.

    The forest blocked by heavy trees was not conducive to the passage of cars. Even if they drove in, they would probably have no way to deal with the wolf. They had no choice but to give up continuing to chase and turned the car around to the car that Han Lu was driving.

    Li Xiaxia in the car saw that Doctor Li had driven away the two wolves, and ran out of the car excitedly and shouted, “Dad, Dad, you finally came!!”

    Doctor Li opened the car door, let Li Xiaxia come up, and was relieved to see that she was fine.

    Ai Wei got out of the car, opened the car door of the other car, and saw Xia Junchi sitting safely in the back seat. Not only was he not injured, but his mental state was also very stable, which relieved him.

    “Are you okay?” he asked.

    “I’m fine,” Xia Junchi said, looking at the car they were driving. “This car is out of gas, does the car you are driving have enough gas?”

    “There should be enough gas. We’ll go back in that car,” Ai Wei said, hugging Xia Junchi out, asking Han Lu to help open the back door, and putting Xia Junchi in.

    Xia Junchi’s face twitched. Although it was best for him not to move now, he still felt very awkward being hugged back and forth like this.

    Especially the gazes from Doctor Li and Han Lu made him feel a little unnatural. He closed his eyes and simply thickened his skin and pretended not to see it.

    “This is Wang Zhi, the person we found in the villa,” Ai Wei pointed at Wang Zhi and introduced him to Xia Junchi and Han Lu. Wang Zhi was sitting in the car, his face still a little pale. Seeing Ai Wei introduce himself, he forced a somewhat stiff smile and said, “You, hello.”

    He remembered that he had stopped Ai Wei and Doctor Li from coming to rescue them before, and he couldn’t help but feel a little guilty when facing Xia Junchi and Han Lu at this time.

    Han Lu’s car was out of gas and could only be left on the road. Several people moved the food, daily necessities, and the body of the wolf that was killed to the Ferrari, and then went back together in the Rolls Royce.

    Ai Wei sat next to Xia Junchi. After closing the car door, he began to ask them how they encountered the two wolves.

    It turned out that Xia Junchi and Han Lu and Li Xiaxia had been waiting in the car for Ai Wei and Doctor Li to clean up the zombies in Youran Mountain Villa before coming to pick them up. Because the waiting process was long and boring, Li Xiaxia even wanted to get out of the car to play for a while. Xia Junchi was afraid that there would be danger outside and didn’t want her to get out of the car, so he simply took out the textbook, gave her a lecture, and assigned some homework.

    Li Xiaxia’s academic performance was usually good, and there was no other entertainment in the car, so she studied very seriously. After studying like this for two hours, she became sleepy and leaned back on the chair and fell asleep.

    Xia Junchi was also a little sleepy, so he leaned back on the chair and squinted his eyes. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard Han Lu’s nervous and horrified voice calling him, saying that she had seen two wolves.

    Xia Junchi woke up immediately. His leg was broken, and Han Lu and Li Xiaxia had no fighting power. They would probably not have a good outcome against two wolves. So Han Lu drove away directly, wanting to get rid of these two wolves.

    They originally thought that the car was faster than the wolves, and as long as they drove a certain distance, they would be able to get rid of these two wolves. But who knew that these two wolves ran very fast. Even though Han Lu had driven the car to the fastest speed, they were still chasing closely behind and had not been shaken off.

    The top speed of the car that Han Lu was driving was nearly 300 kilometers per hour, which far exceeded the speed of wolves. However, these two wolves were able to keep up with the speed, which showed that they must have undergone mutation, and it was likely that they were mutated wolves that had strengthened their physical strength or speed.

    They thought about driving to exhaust the two wolves’ physical strength first. Even if they couldn’t get rid of them, when they fought with the two wolves after they were exhausted, the chances of winning would be greater.

    Along the way, Xia Junchi also threw the things in the car on the road, leaving them as marks to make it easier for Ai Wei and Doctor Li to find them.

    The two wolves were indeed mutated beasts, and their physical strength and endurance were amazing. They followed them for dozens of minutes before they were shaken off. However, at this time, their car was almost out of gas.

    On the way here, they had seen a gas station. They were hesitating whether to return to the gas station to refuel when they saw the two wolves chasing up again.

    The two wolves had been running at high speed for more than 40 minutes and were exhausted and panting. If they waited for them to recover their strength, the three people in the car would probably lose their lives. Xia Junchi picked up the knife, wanting to take action against the two wolves before they recovered their strength. Who knew that at this time, Ai Wei and Doctor Li actually drove over. They also killed one wolf and broke the leg of the other wolf.

    Ai Wei couldn’t help but feel a burst of fear after hearing them finish speaking. Xia Junchi’s leg was broken, how could he beat two mutated wolves? He really couldn’t imagine what the result would be if they had come one step later.

    At the same time, he was also a little grateful that they had arrived in time.

    Although they were frightened, the mental state of several people was still good. Even Li Xiaxia quickly recovered her spirits and asked Doctor Li about what happened after they entered Youran Mountain Villa.

    Doctor Li told them about how they cleaned up the zombies in Youran Mountain Villa, met Tao Xin with her two children, and the matter of Wang Zhi. However, in front of Li Xiaxia, who was only seven years old, Doctor Li and Ai Wei were a little unable to say that Wang Zhi had intended to rape Tao Xin.

    Moreover, Tao Xin said that Wang Zhi wanted to rape her, after all, it was only her side of the story. They couldn’t be sure whether Wang Zhi had actually done it, so they could only be more careful about Wang Zhi.

    After driving for more than 50 minutes, several people returned to the gate of Youran Mountain Villa again.

    Wang Zhi took out the key, opened the gate, and drove the car into the entrance of the manor.

    Parking the car on the road in front of the villa, Ai Wei helped Xia Junchi out of the car.

    Wang Zhi couldn’t help but have a strange expression on his face when he saw how Ai Wei treated Xia Junchi like a treasure.

    But thinking that he was weak now, and this group of people seemed to have a very strong relationship, Wang Zhi held back and didn’t say anything. He just behaved a little further away from Ai Wei and Xia Junchi.

    Ai Wei was now used to releasing his mental power to observe the surrounding movements. Although he didn’t see Wang Zhi’s expression, he was keenly aware of Wang Zhi’s rejection of himself and Xia Junchi.

    He couldn’t help but frown, but he didn’t care too much.

    There are people like Han Lu and Doctor Li in this world who can accept homosexual love, but there are also many people who are very resistant to homosexual love, and even fear homosexuals like tigers, wishing they would disappear. One of his former colleagues had said that homosexuals were disgusting, and he felt very uncomfortable at the time. But now, he has gradually accepted the fact that his sexuality is not recognized by many people.

    So what does it matter? Those people are not his people, so why should he care about what they think? As long as he lives his life well, doesn’t steal or rob or harm people, obeys the law and doesn’t mess around, he is free to like whatever he wants!

    This villa is very large, with hundreds of rooms, many of which are uninhabited. Several people first found a few empty rooms and were about to move in when Doctor Li stopped them.

    Then, several people saw Doctor Li take out his precious microscope, check each room one by one, and only after confirming that there was no zombie virus in the room did he tell them that they could move in.

    Ai Wei couldn’t help but twitch his lips, feeling an unspeakable awe for the doctor’s cleanliness.

    In order to take care of Xia Junchi, he naturally lived in the same room as Xia Junchi. Everyone else lived in a separate room, and the living was very close, which was convenient for taking care of each other.

    Ai Wei originally wanted to say hello to Tao Xin, but when he arrived at Tao Xin’s room, he found that it was already empty. He couldn’t help but frown, feeling that Tao Xin might be guarding against his group of people.

    Suddenly, he thought of one thing. He went out with Wang Zhi and came back together. If what Tao Xin said was true, and Wang Zhi had really attempted to rape her, then seeing himself traveling with Wang Zhi, she would probably also be wary of his group of people.

    In fact, Ai Wei didn’t want to travel with Wang Zhi. Now it is the apocalypse, and the rule of law can no longer restrain people’s behavior as well as before. Many people have committed evil deeds that they would not dare to do before the apocalypse. So many rape news on the Internet make people feel the terrible nature of people in the apocalypse.

    Although a series of government measures have suppressed this trend a lot, allowing people to see the hope of survival again. But the current security management is much worse after all, and it cannot be ruled out that many people will commit crimes with a fluke mentality.

    In this situation, he naturally didn’t want to be a companion with someone who might have a problem with his character.

    But Wang Zhi’s attempted rape of Tao Xin was only Tao Xin’s side of the story after all. Without evidence, he could not be sure that Wang Zhi had really done it, so he could not drive Wang Zhi out, he could only try to guard against him.

    Then, Ai Wei and Doctor Li took advantage of the fact that it was not dark yet to move the zombies’ corpses that they had killed to the courtyard, wanting to burn these corpses together with the clothes they were wearing.

    Suddenly, Ai Wei seemed to hear children screaming from the villa.

    “Did you hear any sound?” Because the sound was too small, Ai Wei was not sure if he had heard it wrong.

    “What sound?” Doctor Li asked, he didn’t hear anything.

    Ai Wei said, “It sounds a bit like a little boy screaming.”

    Doctor Li said, “Your five senses are more sensitive than ours, maybe there really are children screaming in the villa.”

    Ai Wei also thought so, he picked up the butcher knife and said, “I’ll go in and take a look, you wait outside first.”

    He released his mental power and searched nearby. This manor is very large. In addition to the main villa, there are also some warehouses, pavilions, wooden houses, guard rooms, etc. in the manor. Before long, he found several figures in a remote basement.

    The basement had become a mess. The things that were originally placed on the table and cabinet had been swept to the ground, and it seemed that there had been a fierce fight.

    Tao Xin’s son, Lan Ting, was lying on the ground unconscious with blood all over his head, while Zheng Anhe, the son of the owner of Youran Mountain Villa, was huddled next to Lan Ting.

    And not far from them, Wang Zhi was sitting on the ground, but Tao Xin was nowhere to be seen.

    Ai Wei couldn’t help but have a bad premonition in his heart, and used his mental power to check nearby again, but still couldn’t find Tao Xin.

    He couldn’t help but quicken his pace and came to the basement. The door of the basement was open, and he could see at a glance that Wang Zhi was sitting on the sofa panting heavily, muttering: “Little bastard, almost bit off a piece of my flesh… tmd, when I’ve rested enough, I’ll throw you out to feed the zombies!! I x@#%…”

    A series of swear words burst out of his mouth, but he suddenly stopped when he saw the person coming in from outside.

    He remembered Ai Wei’s decisive methods when killing zombies, and a flattering smile immediately appeared on his face, making his whole face look a bit twisted: “You, you’re back… are the zombies burned?”

    Ai Wei looked at Lan Ting, who was lying unconscious on the ground, and asked, “What’s going on?”

    Wang Zhi smiled stiffly and pointed at Lan Ting: “This child is the child of the nanny in the villa. He suddenly pounced on me and attacked me, and bit me. So I gave him a little lesson. Look, he bit me, how ruthless this child is! He’s only this old, and he almost bit off a piece of my flesh…” Wang Zhi said, stretching out his right arm for Ai Wei to see. On that arm, there was indeed a circle of bloody teeth marks, and judging from the shape, it should have been bitten by a child.

    Ai Wei didn’t want to talk nonsense with him and asked, “Where’s Tao Xin?” Wang Zhi obviously didn’t expect Ai Wei to know Tao Xin’s name, and the expression on his face froze for a moment. Then he showed a fearful expression and said, “Tao Xin, Tao Xin has become a zombie… I found her with her two children on the first floor, so I wanted her to be with me so that I could protect her. Who knew that when she saw me, she suddenly pounced on me and wanted to bite me. If I hadn’t dodged quickly, I would have been bitten by her!”

    Tao Xin said that she had not been bitten by a zombie, but Ai Wei and Doctor Li had not examined her whole body, and they could not be sure whether she had really been bitten and would become a zombie.

    Tao Xin was alone with two children. If she really became a zombie, what would happen to these two children?

    Ai Wei suppressed the discomfort in his heart, looked at Wang Zhi sharply, and asked again: “Where is Tao Xin now?”

    Wang Zhi swallowed, his eyes a little evasive. Seeing Ai Wei’s attitude, he thought that Ai Wei knew Tao Xin, maybe he was even familiar with Tao Xin. Otherwise, why would he be so concerned about Tao Xin? Maybe he was Tao Xin’s lover… Thinking that the relationship between Tao Xin and Ai Wei might be unusual, Wang Zhi couldn’t help but feel a little drumming in his heart, and his eyes couldn’t help but glance at the butcher knife not far away.

    He approached Ai Wei with a bitter face, wanting to muddle through, and said: “This, what can I do? She has become a zombie, and she keeps chasing me and wants to bite me. I, I, in order to protect myself, I… I…”

    “You what?!” Ai Wei shouted in a low voice.

    “I, I killed her…” Wang Zhi shrank his neck and stammered.

    Ai Wei simply wanted to curse. This Wang Zhi actually killed Tao Xin. Looking again at Lan Ting, whose head was stained with blood on the ground, and Zheng Anhe, who didn’t even dare to cry, he was so cruel to children. This Wang Zhi couldn’t stay here, otherwise, he wouldn’t be at ease.

    Perhaps sensing Ai Wei’s unfriendliness, Wang Zhi became a little anxious and said, “What I said is true, Tao Xin has really become a zombie. Otherwise, tell me, why would I kill her for no reason?! By the way, I buried Tao Xin’s body in the yard. Go and see, her eyes and skin color are very abnormal, she has really become a zombie!”

    Ai Wei looked at Wang Zhi’s anxious appearance, and it didn’t seem like he was lying. Could it be that Tao Xin had really become a zombie?

    “Let’s not talk about this for now,” he said, picking up Lan Ting from the ground, “I’ll get someone to check the child’s injuries first, you be honest and don’t play tricks.”

    Saying that, he also said to Zheng Anhe, whose eyes were full of tears: “Little friend, come with uncle, uncle will give you candy.”

    Zheng Anhe immediately stood up, grabbed Ai Wei’s trouser legs, looking very afraid of Wang Zhi.

    Seeing that Ai Wei was holding a child in his hands and dragging another child on his legs, Wang Zhi couldn’t help but glance at the butcher knife beside him. However, thinking that Ai Wei also had companions, and that he hadn’t reached the point where he had to fight Ai Wei to the death, he withdrew his gaze and followed Ai Wei out of the villa.

    Ai Wei put Lan Ting on the sofa in the villa hall and went out to call Doctor Li.

    He briefly explained the situation and asked Doctor Li to check Lan Ting’s body.

    Han Lu and Li Xiaxia had already heard Ai Wei talk about the villa, knowing the existence of the two children, Lan Ting and Zheng Anhe. Seeing the little Zheng Anhe at this time, they took Zheng Anhe over and gave him food to coax him.

    Ai Wei asked Wang Zhi to take him to see Tao Xin’s body.

    After Wang Zhi killed Tao Xin, he buried Tao Xin’s body in the place where they had collectively cremated the zombies’ corpses before. Because he was too lazy, Wang Zhi didn’t burn Tao Xin’s body.

    Now that Ai Wei wanted to see it, Wang Zhi led Ai Wei to dig out Tao Xin’s body again.

    Tao Xin was chopped on the head with a knife, and her brains came out. Her face was a bit hideous and looked very terrifying.

    Ai Wei first scanned Tao Xin’s body with his mental power and found that she was indeed no longer alive.

    Then, he used his mental power to penetrate Tao Xin’s clothes to check her body. If there were scratches or bites on Tao Xin’s body, then she might have really become a zombie.

    He wouldn’t have looked at a woman’s body, but now that Tao Xin was dead, he had no scruples about checking it. After checking the upper body, he checked the lower body again, and then found three scratches on the outside of Tao Xin’s left thigh.

    It could be seen at a glance that the scratches were made by an adult’s fingernails, and the wounds were already a little black.

    He suddenly froze, not because he found something wrong with the corpse. But he suddenly realized that he didn’t feel much discomfort when he was scanning Tao Xin’s body with his mental power.

    Yesterday, he would still feel nauseous when he saw the scene of zombies eating people. But just now, after only a day, he had mercilessly killed most of the zombies in this villa, and now he didn’t feel any discomfort at all when facing a female corpse.

    Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little nauseous. Perhaps after killing so many zombies and seeing so much death, his heart seemed to be becoming more and more numb and less and less humane.

    When he started killing zombies, he would still feel soft-hearted and unable to do it, and even feel pity and nausea when he saw the zombies being completely killed by himself. But now, after killing so many zombies, he didn’t feel much about it anymore.

    Maybe he was really numb. Or rather, he was getting more and more used to this situation.

    Human adaptability is really strong. If someone had told him two days ago that he would kill hundreds of zombies and flip through a corpse without any scruples, he would definitely think that person was talking nonsense. But now, he felt a blankness in his heart when facing all this.

    As long as this corpse was not Xia Junchi and his sister Ai Yi, and other people he knew, he would not have much problem facing the corpse.

    Thinking of Xia Junchi, Ai Wei suddenly felt a little eager to see Xia Junchi.

    And Ai Yi, when he had settled everything here, he would go and pick up Ai Yi. Although Ai Yi didn’t want him to find her for his safety, he always felt a little uneasy when she was not by his side.

    Ai Wei reburied the body and brought Wang Zhi back to the villa.

    Doctor Li had already given Lan Ting and Zheng Anhe a full body examination. Lan Ting had a wound on his head, which should have been caused by hitting something hard. After Doctor Li did a simple bandage, he woke up not long after.

    As soon as Lan Ting saw Wang Zhi standing next to him, he jumped up from the bed and pounced on Wang Zhi. He looked like he wanted to kill Wang Zhi.

    Han Lu quickly hugged him around the waist and said to Wang Zhi, “You go out first.”

    Wang Zhi’s expression was a little guilty. He shrank his neck and went outside.

    “Let me go! I want to kill him!! Kill him!!” Seeing that Wang Zhi was about to leave, Lan Ting struggled even more violently, and Han Lu almost couldn’t control him.

    Suddenly, Lan Ting screamed, covering his head, looking very uncomfortable.

    “Don’t move around.” Doctor Li also went to hold him down and said, “There should be a slight concussion.” Lan Ting was only five or six years old, and he lost his mother. Moreover, he probably witnessed Wang Zhi killing Tao Xin with his own eyes. Such a young child was probably unable to bear it.

    Everyone felt a little uncomfortable. Since the zombie outbreak, their relatives and friends had become zombies. Lan Ting’s appearance also reminded them of their relatives who had become zombies.

    Lan Ting finally calmed down from the pain. Although he couldn’t wait to kill Wang Zhi, he wasn’t unaware of his body. Now his head hurt so much, and he was also a little dizzy and nauseous, which made him a little scared.

    Han Lu took Lan Ting to a room, and Doctor Li prescribed some medicine for Lan Ting. Fortunately, there was a medical room in this manor, which had many commonly used medical equipment. Doctor Li gave Lan Ting a rough check.

    Apart from the wound on his head, Lan Ting had no other problems. He should be fine after a period of recuperation.

    Lan Ting took the medicine and fell asleep, and Ai Wei told Doctor Li about the black scratches on Tao Xin’s body.

    Doctor Li frowned and said, “It’s normal for the scratches to turn black after a while.” He felt that it was better to see for himself whether the scratches were left before or after death. If the scratches were left before death, they should have been scratched by zombies. After all, it was unlikely that a man like Wang Zhi would scratch someone with his fingernails. If they were left after death, then it was likely that Wang Zhi had left them on Tao Xin’s body in order to escape responsibility.

    “I’ll go take a look too,” Doctor Li said. If Tao Xin had not become a zombie, but Wang Zhi killed her and left scratches on her body, then he would definitely have to get rid of Wang Zhi. After all, his daughter still had to live here. Although Li Xiaxia was only 7 years old this year, Doctor Li was not at ease with a man who killed for rape in the manor.

    However, Doctor Li went to see Tao Xin’s body and found that the scratches were indeed left before death.

    Although Doctor Li was not a forensic doctor, he could still see such a simple identification.

    Humans are slower to zombify after being scratched by a zombie’s fingernails than after being bitten by a zombie. So it’s not surprising that Tao Xin insisted on becoming a zombie for several hours after being scratched by a zombie.

    In addition, after they came to this manor, they had almost eliminated the zombies in the manor. The probability of Tao Xin encountering zombies again after they left was not high.

    However, Tao Xin had been scratched early in the morning, but she lied to them before, saying that she had not been scratched by zombies. If they interacted with Tao Xin without any precautions, and Tao Xin suddenly became a zombie, it was unknown what kind of consequences would occur.

    It seems that in the future, no matter who they meet, they must check their bodies carefully before contacting them.

    Ai Wei proposed that Doctor Li take Wang Zhi to the room to check his body to see if he had any wounds.

    Wang Zhi had already taken advantage of the time when Doctor Li was checking Lan Ting’s injuries to take a shower and change his clothes. Now that he heard Ai Wei say that he wanted to check the wounds, he was very resistant and said, “There’s no need to check, I only have two wounds on my arms and thighs. There’s a medical kit here, I can handle it myself.”

    Seeing that he had misunderstood, Ai Wei explained, “Doctor Li wants to check if you have been scratched or bitten by Tao Xin. You fought with her before, right. In case you were injured by her in the process of fighting and infected with the zombie virus, it would be a hidden danger to everyone here.”

    Doctor Li added, “It doesn’t necessarily have to be a scratch or bite. Even if you just splashed with zombie blood, you have to be quarantined for a period of time first.”

    Wang Zhi’s expression became a little ugly when he heard this. Although he had taken a shower, there was Tao Xin’s blood on his body. This made him a little drumming in his heart. Could it be that just splashing zombie blood would infect him with the zombie virus?!

    Doctor Li took Wang Zhi to the room to check. After a while, Ai Wei suddenly heard Wang Zhi’s voice coming from the room.

    He only heard Wang Zhi say a little excitedly: “What do you mean?! I’m not injured, why do you want to quarantine me?!”

    Doctor Li’s voice said: “I just want you to stay in the room and observe for a period of time…”

    Ai Wei followed the sound into the inspection room and saw Wang Zhi and Doctor Li arguing. Doctor Li probably wanted Wang Zhi to stay in the room for quarantine, but Wang Zhi obviously didn’t want to cooperate.

    Ai Wei looked at Doctor Li and asked, “What’s wrong? Does he have any wounds on his body?”

    “I don’t have any wounds on my body!” Wang Zhi said excitedly, obviously very resistant to being quarantined.

    Doctor Li also said, “He doesn’t have any wounds on his body, but he has bruises. Moreover, he has taken a shower, maybe there was blood on his body before, but it has been washed away. To be on the safe side, it’s better to quarantine him for a period of time.”

    The bruises on Wang Zhi’s body were caused by bumping into them during the fight with Tao Xin before. They were not wounds, and he felt that he didn’t need to be quarantined. Moreover, after being quarantined, he would lose his freedom, and he didn’t want to be quarantined at all.

    Ai Wei nodded to Doctor Li, and then persuaded Wang Zhi: “You go to the room and play games for a while, or take a nap, and the quarantine will be over.”

    Wang Zhi said a little irritably, “How can I be in the mood to play games at this time?!”

    Who would be in the mood to have fun being quarantined in a room like a prisoner?!

    Seeing that he was still not cooperating, Ai Wei said, “It’s not just you, Lan Ting has bled on his head and also has to be quarantined. All of us here, and if there are new people coming in in the future, will also have to be
