“Thank you, Little Brother. Thank you for telling us. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to escape the pursuit of these zombies.”

The middle-aged man leaned against the glass door of the supermarket and panted.

After resting for a while, the middle-aged man stood up and looked outside the glass door.

Bam! Bam!

The zombies outside the door were still banging on the door, unwilling to give up. Every time they hit the door, normal people would feel very painful, as if they were fighting for their lives.

However, these were all zombies, so they had no sense of pain.

“We can’t let them continue smashing like this. You have to know that it will be dangerous if they continue,” the middle-aged man quickly said to the others.

At this moment, another man stood up and asked, “Brother Liu, what should we do?”

The other party was also one of the two people holding a gun.

The middle-aged man thought for a moment, and said, “Let’s find paper first and paste it on this glass so that they can’t see through it.”

Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, the others immediately stood up to find paper.

However, Chu Xiu saw that although most people had gone to look for paper, there were still more than 10 people who did not move.

There were about 11 or 12 people left. Most of them were young women.

These women also heard the middle-aged man’s words, but they did not move at all.

The middle-aged man at the side also saw the women and immediately frowned.

“Everyone, look, the others have gone to look for paper. You can also look for it together. There’s strength in numbers. It’s faster if everyone looks for it. We can also fix the glass faster.”

However, to the middle-aged man’s words, one of the women said unhappily, “Uncle, we’re all girls. We ran in just now, and don’t have any strength. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝒄𝒐𝓶

“If you ask us to find paper now, we won’t have the strength. When we’ve rested, we’ll look for it!

“Besides, you’re all men. It’s only right for you to do more. How can you let weak women like us do this?”

The middle-aged man obviously did not expect a woman to say that, and was stunned for a moment.

However, when he heard the other party’s words, the middle-aged man did not continue speaking. He only looked at her deeply before turning around and not persuading her anymore.

When Chu Xiu heard this, he chuckled.

He could clearly see that although these women said that they were tired, they were actually not tired at all.

Furthermore, there were a few young men asking about their well-being beside the women.

They turned a blind eye to the middle-aged man’s words just now, and did not listen to him at all.

At this moment, the middle-aged man from before walked over, and said to Chu Xiu, “Little Brother, thank you so much just now. I didn’t expect there to be a safe place here.

My name is Liu Zhengsheng. I’m a police officer. I originally thought that I was going on a normal assignment. I didn’t expect to encounter this.”

Liu Zhengsheng secretly sized Chu Xiu up as he spoke.

As a veteran police officer, he felt that Chu Xiu was not simple.

Previously, when he had been escaping, he had run in a hurry, so he hadn’t carefully observed Chu Xiu.

However, now that he had some time, he realized that the other party was not simple.

For example, when they had first met, although the other party had escaped with them, Liu Zhengsheng realized that the other party had not seemed to want to run with them at the beginning now that he recalled that moment.

Besides, after running into the supermarket, even he felt a little afraid of the zombies outside the door.

However, after observing Chu Xiu, he realized that the latter was not afraid at all.

Moreover, he wasn’t even worried. He completely ignored the zombies outside the door.

This abnormal situation immediately made the policeman a little curious, so he came to inquire.

“Chu Xiu, an ordinary person. Where did you all come from?”

Chu Xiu could tell that Liu Zhengsheng was probing, but he didn’t care.

The current him could be said to be the strongest person in the city. He was not even afraid of the gun in the other party’s hand.

Since the other party wanted to ask, Chu Xiu had his own motives.

“We came from Winter Avenue in the east. There are so many zombies there that we can’t count them.

“Originally, there was a concert being held there, but after the blood rain at noon, it was simply hell on earth. I was part of the police dispatched to protect the entrance. If not for this, I might not have been able to escape.”

When Liu Zhengsheng said this, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

The scene at that time had simply dealt a devastating blow to his worldview.

If not for his many years of living experience, which had made his mind tenacious, he would have given up on escaping.

But now that he thought of his wife and children at home, he immediately cheered himself on. He could not relax.

“Are you saying that the stadium on the street was holding a concert this winter? Have all the zombies run out?”

Upon hearing the other party’s words, Chu Xiu immediately discovered a new clue.

At the same time, he had some thoughts in his mind. He felt that he could harvest a large number of zombies.

“That’s right. Although there are many entrances and exits there, because the entrance is small, it was crowded.

“Some of the entrances are blocked. I think most of those zombies are still in

the stadium..”
