It seemed very clear that there were people inside, and the zombies hit the door together. The steel pipe wouldn’t last long. It’s a matter of time before the door was knocked open.

This impulse device had not been used for a long time. Otherwise, this flushing pipe that was also used for inspection and clogging wouldn’t need to be flushed. That was why it was used as a utility room with a lot of miscellaneous items piled up.

Kang Ye looked at the direction of the door vigilantly, ready to fight. And Qi Yan’s originally anxious heart gradually calmed by the roar of the zombies.

Anyway, it’s a life, and the final result was nothing more than the failure of the mission.

What Qi Yan most worried about was Kang Ye… But thinking about it carefully, Kang Ye was a zombie, and in such a world, he had the most advantage.

With his only concern dispelled, Qi Yan relaxed. He walked to Kang Ye’s side and held his tight fist.

“Kang Kang, are you happy to meet me?”

Kang Ye was taken aback and replied truthfully: “Mn, happy.”

“Then, do you like me?” Qi Yan raised his head and showed a gentle smile: “I like you very much.”

Kang Ye pursed his lips. For the first time, he did not answer Qi Yan’s question quickly, but frowned slightly. Facing Qi Yan’s soft eyes, a trace of complexity flashed across Kang Ye’s eyes, and after a while, it turned into an ambiguous answer.

“When we get out, I will answer your question.”

Therefore, we must wait for us to go out together, and I will tell you everything I really want to say, one by one.

Qi Yan’s throat tightened without an answer, and inexplicable panic and unwillingness hit from his heart.

—-Idiot, will you die if you answer me? Maybe, I won’t hear it again. Then, I will regret it for the rest of my life.

At this moment, Professor Liu suddenly shouted with joy: “Okay!”

As the words fell, a torrent of water poured down from the top of the water pipe. The sound of the impact force making it known how powerful it was.

Qi Yan and Kang Ye glanced at each other; they could see the excitement in each other’s eyes. Qi Yan asked Kang Ye to go down first. Although Kang Ye wanted to refute, they’re already at death’s door, and there was no time to delay, so he stopped talking and jumped down the current.

Qi Yan stepped on the edge of the wall and was just about to jump off, but the afterglow in the corner of his eyes saw Professor Liu struggling to pick up the round iron mesh.

His eyes widened abruptly, Qi Yan was about to come down, but Professor Liu quickly used an iron mesh against the wall. Qi Yan hurriedly called out from the edge of the wall where only the iron mesh and the water were visible: “Professor!”

“This water pipe leads to a small river outside the city. Be vigilant at any time. I have worked hard to get you out. Don’t be killed by zombies.” Professor Liu’s humorous tone made him laugh, but the bitterness in that smile was something Qi Yan couldn’t ignore.

“Professor, you promised me to go out with me!” Qi Yan went to push the iron mesh, but the iron mesh did not move.

“Come on, what is an old man like me doing out with you young people?” Professor Liu chuckled lightly: “When I saw that kid Kang Ye, it was like I saw my son… My son is gay and has long been out of the closet. His mother and I support him.”

Behind him was the steel pipe that was about to break, the zombie’s hand had already passed through the crack of the door, grabbing it indiscriminately.

“I have been working for chemical research all my life, but I also ruined my family because of this.”

“Child, I’d be lying if I say that I don’t hate it.”

“I release the zombies, maybe many innocent people will be implicated. My one old life is nothing, it should be repaid.”

“You are still young; you have to live well.”

“The further you go, the brighter it will be. Give up halfway, but there is nothing.”

“Look at me, I’m wearing this white coat that smells of disinfectant until I die.”

The four corners of the iron mesh were hung on the original gaps and the iron mesh was sealed again. The brainless zombies didn’t know how to open the iron mesh.

Taking a step back, Professor Liu pulled out a pistol from the pile of debris, chuckled lightly at the smooth barrel, and said, “Why are you staying here foolishly, to be with me in my last moments?”

“Professor……”

Tears flashing across his face, Qi Yan watched the old man holding a gun, gesticulating like an old child.

“What are you crying for? I’m tired of you young people crying!”

“Boy, do you know, I used to be in the army and I can shoot accurately!”

“There are only two shots in here. The first shot is to scare you. I don’t want you to see my head explode.”

Professor Liu pointed his gun at the wall next to Qi Yan and fired without warning. The huge noise made Qi Yan tremble. The hand holding the iron mesh loosened, he leaned back, and was washed down by the water. His ears and nose were choked by water.

The sound of rushing water made Qi Yan unable to hear the second gunshot.

Qi Yan closed his eyes and slid down the water pipe. With the impact of water, Qi Yan didn’t fall very hard. He didn’t know if it’s water or tears on his face anymore. Qi Yan didn’t understand why a good person ended up like this.

Maybe it’s because this world was like this.

When Qi Yan was picked up from the river by Kang Ye, his resolve was still clear. Leaning in Kang Ye’s arms, Qi Yan was silent.

Kang Ye looked at the calm river, his heart sinking slightly.

“He is a very good old man.” Kang Ye said softly.

“I know.” Qi Yan replied hoarsely: “I knew when I saw the experimental plan he made for you.”

That plan was completely different from the liquid oxygen tank. If it weren’t for Professor Liu’s temporary decision to use the liquid oxygen tank, when Qi Yan arrived, Kang Ye might had already been ripped apart according to the plan above.

“There is no disaster in heaven.”

Yes, in such a world, it was better to go to heaven.

But who knew what heaven looked like? How to even go there?

“That’s for another life.” Qi Yan moved suddenly, supporting Kang Ye to stand up: “In this life, you have to live like this.”

Human screams of horror and the roar of zombies came from the streets of Hope City in the distance. Qi Yan and Kang Ye glanced at each other, stood up at the same time, and walked in the other direction.

[Kang Ye’s favorability towards Qi Yan +10, current favorability: 95]

There were still many unknown things in this world, waiting for people to discover.

“You haven’t said whether you like me or not.”

“Love you.”

“Heh? Why didn’t you say it just now? You have to wait until now?”

“I want to talk about it after we get out together.”

“What if we didn’t get out! Wouldn’t you regret it if you don’t say it?”

“We will get out, we definitely will.”

What an inexplicable confidence, but Qi Yan liked it.

“Let’s live together for Professor Liu’s share in the future.”

The sky in the distance was blue with no trace of clouds.

“Find a car first? It will be dark in a while and we are not safe in the city.”

Kang Ye pursed his lips and said with a little disappointment: “Just the two of us?”

“Mn……”

“Just the two of you, my ass!”

Suddenly there was a familiar spitting sound behind them, Qi Yan and Kang Ye looked back in surprise, only to see the familiar RV reflecting the faces of four people, so familiar.

Xiao Tian’s head leaned out of the window and he shouted with disgust: “Kang Ye, are you really a zombie?! We’ve been here for a long time, didn’t you notice? I know you are talking about love there. I didn’t even want to look back!”

“Hurry up and get in the car! Return to the team!” Yang Zhi’s serious voice came.

“Return to the team! Kang, don’t think I just forgive you like this! When Lao Tzu is tired from being abused by zombies next time, Lao Tzu will beat you out!”

“Dacheng, calm down.”

They didn’t wait for them in the next city, but guarded them on the road.

The light orange sunset dyed the sky red, Qi Yan and Kang Ye glanced at each other, and they could see the unspeakable joy in each other’s eyes.

The team was still six people and the apocalypse was still going on.

“Kang Kang, are you happy?”

Meeting Qi Yan’s gaze, Kang Ye’s eyes glowed like a crystal-clear water.

“Mn.”

happy.

[Kang Ye’s favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: 100]
