After eating breakfast, the sun came out.
Wang Tao lifted a corner of the curtain and looked outside.
"Damn!"
Good news: The zombie army from last night was gone.
Bad news: Some of the zombies stayed inside the Water Plant! And the zombies that stayed behind seemed to be more than what he saw before going to bed last night. He didn't know if they were attracted by the screams.
"Looks like I can't go back today..."
Wang Tao looked at the zombies inside the Water Plant, then at his own Health Bar [80/300]. He decided he still couldn't take the risk today.
Although he had a car, there was only one road to get out of the Water Plant, and there were many zombies on that road. It was no problem for him to drive and hit a few zombies, but with so many zombies here... he didn't dare to compare the quality of his car with the toughness of the zombies. If it stalled... he would be dead!
He couldn't rush things today.
Anyway, he had plenty of food and clean water here. Except for the lack of electricity, everything was fine. He could wait a little longer.
Wang Tao looked at the Water Plant building again, his expression a little surprised.
"Those survivors are still alive?"
He took out his Telescope and looked closely.
He saw a group of people lying haphazardly on the roof of the Water Plant building, covered in clothes. The female police officer named Han Rui was the only one maintaining vigilance with a baton and a pistol.
Wang Tao counted carefully. There were only five people. There were six of them yesterday. One was missing.
Recalling, the missing one should be the slightly chubby, buzz-cut young man.
In this situation, the consequences of someone missing were self-evident.
Wang Tao looked at the situation on the roof again and immediately understood.
"They're quite smart..."
There were many staircases inside the building that could be used to go up, and they couldn't block them all even if they wanted to. But there was only one way to get to the roof.
So they all came to the roof and blocked this one path, so the zombies couldn't get up.
Soon, the sleeping survivors woke up one after another, and the female police officer went to rest. The male college student gave some food to the female police officer, and she thanked him.
The female police officer's husband was lying on the edge of the building, looking down and cursing.
After watching for a while, Wang Tao began his rehabilitation exercises—the injuries on his body hadn't healed yet, and appropriate exercise would help his recovery.
After exercising intermittently for a morning, Wang Tao began to prepare lunch.
While eating, he observed the group of survivors again.
Then he discovered that the group of survivors seemed to be having some disputes.
The female police officer's husband was shouting something at the petite girl. The girl covered her face with her hands and knelt on the ground, crying.
The female police officer and the male college student quickly came to mediate. Yellow Hair scolded the female police officer's husband a few times, then tightly hugged the petite girl's shoulders. The petite girl burrowed into Yellow Hair's arms and cried loudly.
The female police officer's husband was a little irritable and went to stay in the distance by himself.
Wang Tao suddenly found that observing others was quite interesting.
Anyway, he had nothing to do now, so he just treated it as a way to pass the time.
In the evening.
Wang Tao didn't go to bed early, but waited at the window on purpose.
The zombies on the road outside were indeed increasing again. These zombies liked to be active at night, but there weren't as many zombies today as yesterday.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Wang Tao made a soft sound of surprise.
He discovered that some of the zombies in the Water Plant were leaving with the zombies outside! Wang Tao was a little surprised and delighted.
Early the next morning, Wang Tao woke up and went to the window as soon as possible.
"Indeed, the zombies have decreased! I guess they couldn't find blood and left?"
Wang Tao didn't quite understand, but this was definitely good news.
Nothing happened today. No survivors were lost, and Wang Tao was safe as well.
The second day at the Water Plant passed peacefully.
At night, the female police officer was still on watch on the survivor's side.
Wang Tao observed the number of zombies in the Water Plant and, sure enough, there were even fewer! "At this rate, I should be able to leave in another day!"
The third day of being trapped in the Water Plant.
Wang Tao's mental state was still pretty good. His Health Bar had recovered another 20 points, now at [100/300].
As the saying goes, it takes one hundred days to recover from a fracture. Many of his injuries were internal, and even medical kits were useless. There were no professional doctors here, so he could only rely on time to slowly recover.
Wang Tao continued to observe the survivors on the roof of the building not far away.
Their situation wasn't very good. Being trapped on the roof for so long, everyone's mental state was poor, and their food seemed to be running out, leading to many disputes.
Wang Tao felt that their small team might not last long. After all, the disintegration of a team usually starts from within.
But this had nothing to do with Wang Tao. They were lucky to be able to protect themselves, let alone care about others.
However, since Wang Tao was planning to leave tomorrow, driving would definitely cause some noise and attract some zombies. If those survivors could seize this opportunity, they would have a high chance of escaping.
At night, there were still many zombies wandering the streets.
Wang Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw another group of zombies leaving with the ones outside.
Now there were probably only twenty or so zombies left in the Water Plant, and they were scattered in various places. Only two or three were blocking the gate, so he could drive away during the day! "Just wait patiently for one more night!"
After routinely observing the group of survivors, he prepared to sleep.
Lying in bed, Wang Tao suddenly thought of Ding Yuqin.
"I left her food and water. As long as she stays at home obediently, she should be safe and doesn't need me to worry..."
Early morning.
Wang Tao got up early.
He first went to the window to take a look. The situation was similar to last night, with most of the zombies gone.
"Eat breakfast, then leave!"
After preparing some simple food, Wang Tao habitually observed the group of survivors, and then his eyebrows rose.
On the roof, the female police officer's husband and the petite woman were on watch today. The other survivors were still asleep, but the two of them, who had been somewhat at odds the previous two days, somehow got together. In the literal sense.
Wang Tao quickly took out his phone, turned on the long-focus camera, and started recording.
He loved watching dramas the most.
A minute later, the dirty couple didn't bother to wipe themselves off and hurriedly put on their clothes. The female police officer's husband said something to the petite woman, and the petite woman looked terrified, but eventually nodded.
Then the two came to the edge of the roof. The male college student was leaning against the edge, sleeping on the ground.
The female police officer's husband and the petite woman exchanged a look, and then suddenly reached out and pushed. The male college student was still in his sleep, and before he could even scream, he fell straight down!
Thud—
The bottom was the gate, with a few zombies blocking the way.
The Yellow Hair lying on the ground next to him seemed to hear the noise and woke up groggily. He got up and saw the two people in front of him, still a little confused.
The female police officer's husband didn't expect the Yellow Hair to wake up and seemed a little flustered, but the petite woman suddenly pushed the Yellow Hair.
"Ah—"
The Yellow Hair's scream immediately woke up the female police officer in the distance. She immediately prepared to come over to check, but was blocked by her husband and the petite woman.
The two people grabbed the policewoman's arm, saying something to her with some panic.
The policewoman's husband was facing Wang Tao, and judging from the shape of his mouth, he seemed to be saying—
"He... committed suicide... we... take the opportunity to escape..."
