454: My sister is dead

Not long after.

Zhao Ling left.

He took a mother and daughter, as well as Yang Qianqian who was waiting outside the subway station, and left.

In the pouring rain, Lu Chao saw that the man with the watermelon knife was completely gone, and immediately threw Nie Xiaoqiao aside, walking towards the bags of rice in the shed.

He hoisted a bag of rice onto his shoulder, glanced around, and walked straight towards a certain house outside.

More than ten minutes later, several bags of rice were hidden away by Lu Chao for himself.

At this point, he rubbed his hands and returned to the entrance of the subway station.

"Let's go, you'll be with me from now on. Boss Zhao specifically told me to take care of you."

Looking at the girl in front of him, the man thought of something, and a strange meaning emerged on his honest face.

Nie Xiaoqiao understood, however; this guy's eyes were the same as those men in the subway station who lusted after her!

Zhao Ling's idea was very simple: give them enough to eat and they would survive.

But he hadn't thought.

In this kind of apocalypse.

What would happen when it was a man and a woman, one strong and one weak, and they were not relatives!

And this was also because Zhao Ling had always been too easy to talk to when dealing with these survivors.

His commands had no deterrent effect on others whatsoever!

In fact, it would arouse even greater greed in people's hearts!

If it weren't for the fact that Nie Xiaoqiao was a woman and could satisfy certain needs, Lu Chao might have already silenced her and kept the four bags of rice all to himself!

When Zhao Ling really came later.

He could just casually find a reason like being bitten by a Zombie.

In this apocalypse where Zombies were rampant, if she was bitten by a Zombie, he couldn't do anything about it.

Looking at the man walking towards her, Nie Xiaoqiao gritted her teeth, clawing at the ground with her hands, wanting to run down into the subway station.

Lu Chao, however, strode over and grabbed the girl's hair.

"Help... Ugh!"

Before the cry for help could come out, the girl's mouth was covered by the man's hand.

In this World, even screaming for help was suffocating!

"What are you doing?!"

Just then, a Middle-aged man walked out from under the subway station.

"Wu Ge..."

Lu Chao, covering the girl's mouth and restraining her struggles, saw the man in front of him and his expression stiffened slightly.

The Middle-aged man called Wu Ge frowned, his gaze looking at the rainy night.

"Zhao Ling left?"

Turning his head, the Middle-aged man asked the man.

"Yes, he left."

Lu Chao was worried the girl would talk about the food, so he kept his hand on her mouth.

However, under the other person's gaze, this action felt inexplicably awkward.

"You're quite bold, aren't you? Zhao Ling just specifically told you to take care of her, and this is how you're taking care of her?"

The Middle-aged man looked at Lu Chao.

Nie Xiaoqiao struggled desperately, wanting to call for help.

However, the next sentence from the Middle-aged man in front of her extinguished her last glimmer of hope.

"Playing by yourself, and you didn't even call me?"

The Middle-aged man opened his mouth, revealing a set of yellow teeth, and asked with a sinister smile.

Lu Chao chuckled dryly: "How could I, Wu Ge? Together?"

"It's not safe here, a lot of noise will attract Zombies. Let's go down and have fun."

The Middle-aged man called Wu Ge said, grabbing the girl's arm, pinching her so hard it hurt.

"Down there, there are more people."

Lu Chao was a little reluctant.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Zhao Ling told you to take care of her, does that mean this woman is really yours?"

The Middle-aged man pulled the girl forcefully.

Lu Chao didn't dare to say much more, but the hand covering the girl's mouth tightened even more.

Tears flowed silently, the girl's eyes wide and bloodshot, she could only watch herself being dragged into the abyss by the two men.

What would await her next?!

"Older brother... I'm so scared, I'm really scared!"

"Splash ~"

Nie Fangping's last letter slipped from the girl's hand, drifting in the air, and was swept into the heavy rain, becoming a sodden mess.

... ...

... ...

"Splash splash splash ~"

The rain continued to pour, as if it were someone's tears, containing endless despair.

"Buzz buzz buzz ~"

In the rain, Nie Fangping flapped his rain-soaked wings, gritting his teeth and persistently carrying the chicken leg towards the subway station.

The journey to the subway station was not short.

For Nie Fangping, who was heavily burdened, it was even longer.

Late at night.

In the subway tunnel, there were faint sounds of air stirring.

Nie Fangping's later journey was to travel from other connected subway stations towards his destination.

In the dark subway station, a large number of Zombies were scattered in disarray.

Flying silently, he finally saw a defensive structure built from a pile of scrap metal in the distance.

In this tunnel, two-thirds of the area was blocked off by the survivors of the subway station.

This separated the other Zombies inside the subway station, creating a hard-won safe area.

"Finally arrived."

Nie Fangping breathed a sigh of relief.

The two-thirds of the scrap metal wall that blocked the Zombies could not stop him, a bug that could fly.

Carefully flying, he placed the chicken leg under his feet in the shadow of the safe area.

Nie Fangping flew towards the open area where the survivors were gathered without any rest.

He had brought the chicken leg that Xiaoqiao liked to eat the most, and he could bring more in the future. Xiaoqiao would definitely be happy when she heard this good news.

However.

When Nie Fangping was full of joy and wanted to tell his younger sister this good news and give her the chicken leg as a surprise...

He found that there was no sign of his younger sister, Nie Xiaoqiao, in the subway station.

"Where did she go?"

Nie Fangping searched with a slight sense of confusion.

"Could it be that Zhao Ling has already taken her away?"

This thought had just appeared when it was dismissed by him.

He could see that his younger sister's favorite doll was still there.

The doll was small and not troublesome.

If Zhao Ling was going to take her away, the girl would definitely take that doll.

But it's hard to say...

Because Nie Fangping could see that his younger sister's most cherished doll... was now being played with by a boy in the crowd.

"Where is Nie Xiaoqiao? Where did she go?"

Nie Fangping was a little anxious, and a feeling of unease continued to rise in his heart.

After a few rounds, he only saw the fabric from his younger sister's clothes, and a clump of what looked like his younger sister's dry, brownish hair, hair clinging to her scalp!

"Buzz buzz buzz!!"

Flapping his wings fiercely, Nie Fangping stared deadly at these indifferent people in front of him, and with an extremely suppressed mood, flew towards the other side of the tunnel.

This area of shadow was where the survivors disposed of bodies.

Disposing of bodies.

Mostly people who had starved to death.

And when Nie Fangping arrived here, the first thing he saw was a figure with a shriveled lower leg, disheveled clothes, and a head covered in blood!

It was as if his Soul was being torn, amidst the terrifying emotional fluctuations, Nie Fangping continuously closed the distance.

Closer, clearer, dead!

"Buzz buzz buzz!!!"

The faint sound of air stirring was so difficult to notice.

The anger of a bug was so weak and ridiculous.

And Nie Fangping.

Looking at the girl's wide, unseeing eyes in front of him, he only felt... a raging anger like a tsunami, crushing his thoughts!

"I brought you something delicious, something you've been talking about for several months, I brought it!"

"How did you... die?"

"You were fine this morning, how did you die?!"
