Lin Qingqing felt that she should be dead at this moment, because when she made up her mind to slit the artery in her wrist, she did not think about living. Besides, she was the only one at home, and there was no way anyone could have saved her last night.
…
So, what's going on now? Do people still have consciousness after death?
Lin Qingqing lay in bed for a long time in a daze, unable to react for a while: "Is the sunlight shining on her face fake?"
"Then am I in heaven? Or in hell?"
When she opened her mouth, she felt that her throat was extremely dry. No one answered her question, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.
The next moment, she closed her eyes suddenly, and after a while, until she was sure that she was indeed conscious, she carefully opened her eyes.
Looking back at the surroundings, the bed is still the same bed, the wall is still the same wall, even the curtains hanging by the window and the dolls in the corner of the dressing table are still the same.
"I'm not dead, it turns out I'm really not dead"!
After confirming that she was still in the world, Lin Qingqing was a little confused. What should she do now? Do you want to do it again?
Thinking of last night, she mustered up all her courage to raise the knife. At that time, she was invincible.
But now this courage has been used up, and the shadow of death has not disappeared. At least for a long time, she will no longer be able to muster this energy.
Sighing, Lin Qingqing turned her head and glanced at her left wrist. There were two deep wounds visible to the bone. The blood around the wounds was so deep that even the sheets were dyed red.
She wanted to raise her arm to take a closer look at the wound, but failed twice in a row.
At this moment, she felt as if her limbs weighed a thousand pounds and she couldn't lift them up at all. Her whole body seemed to have turned into an old machine that had been left for too long and was about to fall apart if she moved.
After a while, Lin Qingqing slowly sat up, as if she had just restarted the "old machine", and then with great effort, she moved her legs from the bed to the ground. It was extremely difficult for her to perform such two simple movements. After taking a few deep breaths, Lin Qingqing felt that she might have to gather some more strength to stand up.
"Is this how you feel when you are eighty, eighty or ninety? If it stays like this in the future, I probably won't need to commit suicide. I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."
Lin Qingqing thought mockingly to herself: Is this the punishment for her choosing to commit suicide?
"Forget it, what are you thinking about?"
Unable to move for the time being, Lin Qingqing had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed.
It was exactly noon at this time, and the winter sunshine was warm but not strong. It shone slantly on the body through the glass window, making it warm. Lin Qingqing let her mind go and narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.
…
"Ah~ help! Someone come quickly! Someone come and save me!"
Just when she was stunned, a sharp female voice suddenly sounded outside the window.
This sudden and piercing scream instantly broke the previous tranquility. Lin Qingqing couldn't help but frown and shook her head irritably.
"It's probably either robbery or domestic violence. Just bear with it. Security will be there to deal with it after a while."
She was in a bad mood and felt uncomfortable physically. She could only turn a blind eye and let the woman scream one after another.
However, after waiting for a while, no other movement was seen, and the female voice's high-pitched screams gradually turned into cries and incoherent curses.
Lin Qingqing couldn't hear what she was cursing. She was a useless person now and didn't even have the strength to go over and watch the fun.
After a while, the crying and howling disappeared, and the surroundings returned to peace.
"Huh" ~ It's so noisy!
She had just breathed out, when suddenly there was another scream.
This time it was a man, and his voice was much louder than the previous woman. Lin Qingqing turned her head, suspecting that the screaming man lived next door to her.
Her family has only one neighbor, a newlywed couple who just moved here half a year ago.
I'm not at home during the day, and I can only hear various sounds coming from next door at night. Sometimes it's playing guitar and singing, sometimes it's quarreling, and sometimes there's some ambiguous movement.
Lin Qingqing didn't mind the noise. Her house was too deserted. It would be nice to catch some fireworks from the neighbor's house occasionally.
"Could it be that my wife beat me after the private money was discovered?" Lin Qingqing thought evilly.
She often heard the noise of the young couple's usual quarrels, but today's situation seemed to be a little different from usual. The man's scream contained an emotion of extreme fear, and even the tail end was trembling slightly.
Lin Qingqing felt a little uneasy, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she felt like the shadow of death was coming. She couldn't say why, but this feeling was very familiar because she had just experienced it last night.
The wall connecting her house and her neighbor's house was at the other end of the bedroom. Lin Qingqing thought for a while, then she stood up with difficulty, supported her still dizzy head, moved her legs tremblingly, and planned to lean over and listen carefully. listen.
But just as she was passing by the window, she suddenly remembered the screaming female voice from before.
"I don't know if the security has taken care of it yet"? Lin Qingqing thought and subconsciously looked out the window.
? ? ? Wait, what is that?
At this time, there were three figures on the lawn downstairs. They were lying on the ground like dogs, their heads shaking constantly. It didn't look like they were doing any obscene and bad things, but rather... eating.
Um? Eating?
Lin Qingqing suddenly realized something, and then she pressed her face against the glass and looked downstairs carefully with her eyes wide open.
These three "eaters" look very strange. Their bodies are thin, their movements are stiff, their skin shows a strange blue-gray color, and even the "food" in their mouths looks like the same person.
Such a strange and familiar scene reminded Lin Qingqing of something that often appears in horror movies - zombies!
"Is this a zombie? A zombie? The end of the world? No way!" she muttered.
"Ah~"! At this time, the male voice next door started screaming again.
"Ah~"! Lin Qingqing was so frightened that she also screamed.
The man's screams and the clanking of furniture mixed together, causing Lin Qingqing to wake up completely.
She swallowed hard, and unconsciously what was happening next door appeared in her mind:
In the morning, when the man opened his eyes, he suddenly found that his wife beside the pillow had turned into a zombie. Her formerly lovely face had become ugly, ferocious, and rotten, and she wanted to eat him with her mouth wide open.
She has no reason, no emotions and no memory. He is no longer her lover, but has become her food.
There was no time to collapse, no time to be sad, and no way to stop him. He could only run away, scream, or resist desperately.
And the final outcome is nothing more than that he kills her or eats her, or he turns into a zombie and becomes a zombie couple with her...
Lin Qingqing blinked. She didn't dare to move at this moment, silently waiting for the outcome of her neighbor next door.
Time passes minute by minute...
When the room next door became completely quiet, she seemed to hear the sound of "Kaz~Kaz~" chewing bones.
Shivering violently, Lin Qingqing collapsed on the ground holding her head.
"How many people have turned into zombies outside?"
"what do I do"?
"Who can come and save me..."
At this moment, she was breathing heavily, and her head was in a mess.
I really can’t imagine what happened today. The doomsday that originally existed only in human imagination came so quietly? What about the government? What about the army? Are you still here or not?
Thinking of the government and the military, she hurriedly found the mobile phone she had dropped under the bed.
"Yes! Call for help first. No matter what, you must go to the police first."
"110, 120, 119, 10086"?
"What else is coming?"
Lin Qingqing opened her phone and called the numbers she knew one by one. In addition to the hotlines of various departments, there are also several familiar friends.
"Dududu~"
"Dududu~"
Although she was mentally prepared, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but feel chilled when she heard busy signals one after another.
"Did they all turn into zombies?" Lin Qingqing's heart has sunk to the bottom.
She didn't know who else to call. She thought for a while, then dialed a familiar yet unfamiliar number with trembling fingers.
"Du~du~du~"
"Hello"?
"……dad"?
