Ch64 - Jealousy

Opening the door, Wei Xuan pulled the door open and quickly stepped aside, for fear that uncle Du would accidentally scratch him.

The door opened, and uncle Du, who suddenly found that the obstacle in front of him was gone, walked out unsteadily and then ran towards the brightest direction in the corridor – the door of the building.

After confirming that he was just wandering around on the road in the community, and there was no sign of walking toward the gate of the community, Wei Xuan was relieved and dragged Du Hang to the sixth floor in one breath.

The corridor on the sixth floor was quiet. After Wei Xuan pushed open the door where the zombie pair lived, it was relatively quiet inside, but when he walked to the bedroom, he could vaguely hear some movement.

It was the same situation every time he came here in the past, the tall one was sitting by the bed, and the short one was wandering around the window.

Next to their bed was a stool with an open bag half full of crystal snowflakes. 

Wei Xuan first checked the amount of snowflakes left – there was still a lot left, enough for them to eat for a long time. Then he went to the bedside and carefully looked at the tall zombie. If something might happen to the two zombies, then the tall zombie who appeared to be the most humane was the biggest suspect.

These two zombies are not like Du Hang, as they don’t bother to take off their clothes every night and put them on again during the day, so just by looking at their clothes, you can tell that they did not sneak out like Du Hang.

Seeing the neat appearance of the two of them now, Wei Xuan first heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and then cast a gloomy glance at Du Hang, who seemed to be honestly following him beside him—look at how well-behaved they are, why are you disobedient and go out in the middle of the night to fight?

However, just to be on the safe side, Wei Xuan decided to check if there was anything that looked like dried blood in the crevices of their nails.

Of course, because the two zombies didn’t wash their hands especially after returning home with him, even if there were some blood stains or something, it might be traces left before.

Du Hang also entered roaring mode, roaring at the tall zombie with a hideous expression on his face.

These two guys, although they still glared at each other after meeting each other a few times before, they no longer yelled at each other, but why are they doing it again now??

Wei Xuan looked depressedly at the tall zombie who walked around him and stared at Du Hang behind him, then looked at Du Hang, and then lowered his head to look at the tall zombie that Du Hang deliberately took a step forward to push. The hand of other zombies… Does Du Hang not allow himself to hold the hands of other zombies now?

Although Du Hang’s sudden action made Wei Xuan very helpless, there was a sweet feeling in his heart that he couldn’t suppress – he would conflict with other zombies because of this kind of thing… This suspected jealousy is not much different from human beings!

The sweetness in his heart filled Wei Xuan’s brain, and it took him a while to think of pulling Du Hang away from the tall zombie. Although these two guys don’t fight under normal circumstances, what if? He is still standing between the two of them, if there is a fight, he will not be able to stop them!

After backing away, Wei Xuan could only stand at a little distance and carefully observe the nails of the two zombies. Zombies’ claws, especially their nails, are different from normal humans. They feel a bit like a cat’s claws. They can become sharp, and be retracted at normal times.

Usually, Du Hang kept his nails retracted so as to not hurt him. As for the zombie couple, unlike ordinary zombies, their nails are almost the same as ordinary humans. So although there was some distance, Wei Xuan felt that the nails of the two zombies were relatively clean.

The clothes on their body are not damaged, and the nails are relatively clean, so to speak—it seems that the only one who went out to fight last night is only his own zombie…

He sighed helplessly again, Wei Xuan glanced at Du Hang, with a helpless expression on his face. To verify, he wanted Du Hang to take him to the place he visited last night to check, to see if there were any traces of battle and remains left at the scene. However, even if he told this to Du Hang, he won’t understand what he means. So this time—as expected, it finally became an unsolved case.

But no matter what, he must be tied to this guy when he sleeps in the future! As to prevent him from roaming around in the middle of the night!

After tossing around like this, he saw that the time was already past nine in the morning. Wei Xuan took Du Hang back to the room where the two of them lived and rummaged through the refrigerator to find today’s breakfast.

After eating and drinking enough, he took the rations that he was going to bring when he went out today, and after wandering around the community to make sure there was nothing wrong with it, Wei Xuan took Du Hang out of the community and headed towards another place with a large shopping mall.

They came out a little later than expected today, but it didn’t affect their actions.

The two wandered along the way, and the number of flower shops they met on the road was less than that of the previous day, there were only two, and there were no vegetable seeds in them, only various popular flower seeds were for sale. When they arrived at the destination, the two wandered around the supermarket but found nothing at all—there were indeed broken vases, dried flowers and plants, and even the soil needed for planting flowers. But this supermarket doesn’t even have half a bag of seeds.

Standing in the messy supermarket where almost everything was overturned and stacked on the ground, Wei Xuan once again sighed helplessly, and walked out with Du Hang, wondering if any nearby supermarkets might sell vegetable seeds.

“How about… Let’s go for a walk in the direction of the city tomorrow. I remember that there are many supermarkets over there, but it will take us longer…” After thinking about it, Wei Xuan decided to go out to the city again tomorrow. Around the center of the district.

One reason is that there are more types of shops there, and the other reason is that the center of the city will be ‘safer’ than the edge of the city. Of course, this security is for Wei Xuan, and the possibility of meeting various survivor teams that went out to do tasks is much lower.

Having made up his mind, Wei Xuan took a different route when he went back, planning to see if there were any other shops along the way that would be more useful to him. It’s just that there were relatively many shops on both sides of the road when he came, but when he walked to another road, it was much cleaner, and even the number of zombies on the street was relatively less.

However, after he walked for a while, he looked at a building not far away in amazement and was in a daze: “The fire station…”

The architect of the fire station is independent of other nearby buildings. The gate is very tall and seems to be closed It is very tight, obviously, after the apocalypse, it should not have been opened at all.

Wei Xuan didn’t pass by this kind of building when he went out before, so he didn’t stop by, but now, after seeing this building, he remembered that there should be many useful things!

Wandering around the fire station, Wei Xuan was delighted to find that the side door here was ajar. It should be that some living people escaped from it, but why didn’t they directly escape in the fire truck? Wei Xuan can guess it now.

Entering through the side door, Wei Xuan wandered around for a while and found the place where the equipment was stored.

Hazmat suits, gas masks, fire axes, and more good stuff! Especially the gas mask. Wei Xuan now has a headache from the smell of decaying corpses after entering some poorly ventilated buildings. 

Before, he could only rely on the mask to resist those disgusting smells that might contain viruses, but now that these things are available, they can save him a lot of worries and the effect of this thing is much better than masks.

In addition, all kinds of portable fire-fighting tools are also good things-with these, if he encounters a room or door that is difficult to open, he can just use the tool to open it!

He quickly packed the things he can use and stuffed them into their backpacks, especially things like the explosion-proof axes and ropes.

Not long after, at least two gas masks and at least two explosion-proof axes of different models were attached to his waist, and several ax handles appeared in the backpack, which was fully supported by the gas masks and ropes. The two men staggered out of the fire station with military shovels in their hands.

If possible, Wei Xuan would be willing to drive a fire truck instead, but the road conditions are too difficult, and the noise while driving is too loud compared to the post-apocalyptic city, so Wei Xuan had no choice but to give up in the end. 

If he is an ordinary survivor and doesn’t want to live in the urban area, he will consider driving a fire truck to escape. But helpless, he was planning to live in the zombie city for the rest of his life, so he reluctantly gave up this option.
