RTIWTLITEOTW Chapter 10
by VolareThe three of them stared intently at the opposite building. After a short while, a figure fell from the balcony.
Bang!!
It was the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.
Looking down, a pile of zombies surrounded the person, gnawing at their body. After a while, the person, with an arm almost detached, slowly stood up.
Then, their stomach slowly split open, and a baby-sized zombie crawled out.
Could that person be the pregnant woman who needed a doctor? Why did she jump?
Shi Yi felt nauseous at the sight and started retching. Jiang Xianchuan patted her back.
Due to the darkness of the night, visibility was somewhat impaired, so Jiang Xianchuan simply took out the telescope.
He saw a skinny man wrestling with the leather-jacketed man they’d seen during the day. Both men tightly gripped sharp knives, ruthlessly stabbing at each other. Their movements were swift and vicious, each strike carrying a deadly threat.
However, due to the man’s small stature, he quickly became overwhelmed in the fierce struggle and was kicked to the ground by the leather-jacketed man.
Immediately afterwards, the leather-jacketed man unhesitatingly raised the sharp weapon in his hand and stabbed it fiercely into the man’s head, instantly piercing his skull.
Bright red blood spurted out, staining the ground red, and declaring the end of this brutal battle.
As expected, this leather-jacketed man was not a good person.
He must have seen them taking the supplies, and coupled with the man’s plea for help during the day, the leather-jacketed man directly locked onto their residence, and that’s why he came to fight for the supplies.
Just as Jiang Xianchuan was about to put down the telescope, the leather-jacketed man came to the balcony, lit a cigarette, and then looked in the direction of Jiang Xianchuan’s apartment. Jiang Xianchuan didn’t know if it was his imagination, but the man seemed to make eye contact with him through the telescope.
In that instant, Jiang Xianchuan felt a chill rise from his spine, making him shiver involuntarily.
Then, the man mouthed the words, “I see you.”
After seeing this, Jiang Xianchuan put down the telescope, thinking to himself, “According to what the leather-jacketed man said, he should come looking for me…”
Thinking of this, Jiang Xianchuan couldn’t help but feel a surge of tension. He knew he had to prepare early.
However, when he recalled the scene of taking the supplies in the afternoon, he realized something was wrong.
Clearly, there were three people who went to retrieve the supplies, including the deceased couple, but now there was only one woman and one man left.
So where did the other person go? Could it be that they had already met with misfortune? Or did something else happen?
This question plunged Jiang Xianchuan into deep confusion, and at the same time, he realized that things might be more complicated and dangerous than he imagined.
Jiang Xianchuan closed the curtains and brought the two of them to the table, telling them everything he had just seen.
“It seems this person won’t give up easily.” Shi Yi was a little nervous, but still kept calm and thought about countermeasures.
Li Lingyu didn’t say anything, but stared at his own hands, seemingly lost in thought.
“So we should first formulate a battle plan.” Jiang Xianchuan spread a piece of white paper on the table, waiting for the two to express their opinions.
“We can set up some traps at the stairwell. I happened to buy some lead balls at the time. We can wrap the lead balls with a net and hang them in the air, and then use a fishing line tied to the ground as a switch. As long as he touches the fishing line when he comes upstairs, the lead balls will fall down.”
After listening to Shi Yi’s suggestion, Jiang Xianchuan thought it was feasible, so he wrote it down and then asked Shi Yi to be responsible for setting up this trap.
