death to survive

On the next floor, we finally arrived at what seemed to be the restaurant area. Although there were no chefs to cook for them, many of the ingredients that could be eaten directly in the store could still be used to fill our stomachs. I found a seat in a place similar to the Italian food precinct, and sandwiched the smoked ham, cheese, canned tomato sauce, etc. behind the counter with the bread that should not have expired from the dessert shop, Started to eat heartily.

Wang Yang, who finished three sandwiches in two or three bites, took two mouthfuls of the mineral water he found in the freezer, and his stomach felt much fuller.Glancing at Li You, who was sitting upright beside him, scooping up the sweet-looking vanilla cream cake with a fork, Li You couldn't help sweating...

It's not surprising that some men have a sweet tooth, but can they be so delicate even with a cake?Seeing that Li You's light-colored thin eyebrows would gently stretch out every time he took a bite of the cake, and his slightly narrowed almond eyes seemed to tremble slightly. In the end, he thought they hadn't noticed, so he shyly dug a spoonful of cake and handed it to Fang Zhihong's. mouth.Wang Yang shivered deeply, and after a while, he slammed the table and stood up: "Are you full? The upstairs should be on the top floor, so let's hurry up to get some delicious food." Bar."

Carrying a new camping backpack and stepping up to the last step, Wang Yang raised his head and finally saw the dawn of victory. There were shelves full of puffed potato chips, biscuits, and drinks, and the empty cash register was crowded at the exit. A pile of trolleys, isn't this the food area?Quicken your pace and step forward, while keeping your gun in hand, beware of possible zombie attacks that may appear suddenly at any time.

Pushing away the messy trolley on the ground, Wang Yang raised his hand and turned over the cash register, entered the food area, and faced Fang Zhihong, who had found a baseball bat as a weapon, and Li, who was leaning next to Fang Zhihong and holding a knife with shaking hands. You, warned: "The aisles in the food area are relatively narrow, and the things placed on them are relatively high, which can easily block the line of sight and cause blind spots. You should try to be careful when handling things."

Looking back at Xiao Yi who was unpacking and getting ready, Wang Yang blinked: "You, I don't need to warn you, do you?"

"..." Xiao Yi was speechless, and cast a contemptuous glance at Wang Yang.Turn around and enter behind the corner of the food area.

"Hey! Hey! Wait for me! Do you know what teamwork is? Xiao Yi!" Wang Yang was angry at Xiao Yi's contempt for his gaze, and quickly chased after Xiao Yi from behind.

The remaining two silently clenched the weapons in their hands. Fang Zhihong stretched out his other hand to wrap around Li You's shoulder, comforting him: "It's okay! Don't be nervous, I will definitely protect you well."

"Yeah." Leaning on Fang Zhihong's warm shoulder, Li You tried hard to calm down his fear, and tried to stabilize his trembling hands.

Fearing that they would be too far away from Wang Yang and the others, they didn't dare to do more psychological construction on the spot, so the two also entered the food area with intricate narrow corridors.

With courage in the food area, Li You selected the food that would save their lives in the future and was also crucial.He followed behind Fang Zhihong, holding food from the display rack. When he passed the candy shelf cabinet, Li You stopped in his tracks.He looked up and saw a palm-sized, round red iron box with milk candies.

From childhood to adulthood, everyone always laughed at him like a woman, bullied him, laughed at him, and teased him. Every time he could only cry and run home, his mother would always comfort him, touch his head, and put this brand of The candy was handed to him to eat, to comfort him who was crying.

So up to now, he has always liked to eat sweets. Whenever he is sad, he can feel comforted by eating sweet things. After his mother passed away due to illness, the taste of candy can remind him His gentle mother.Now seeing this brand of candy, Li You recalled a lot at once, couldn't help standing on tiptoe, barely enough to reach the tin candy on the top row, and held it in his hand.

Turning around, Li You found that Fang Zhihong had disappeared? !My heart tightened involuntarily, the candy in my hand fell out of my hand, and the round iron box fell to the ground. After a bounce, the round iron box rolled all the way to the corner. Under the container.

"Xiaoyou? What's wrong??"

Looking up, I found that Fang Zhihong leaned over from the front intersection and asked him about the situation worriedly. It turned out that Fang Zhihong had been on the left side of the front intersection all the time, and he could see himself when he turned his head.Realizing that he was so timid, he was frightened at once, Li You resented his courage, turned around and decided to pick up the candy box that rolled down to the bottom of the corner container.

He squatted down, stretched out his hand and fumbled downwards, and touched it a few times, but he didn't touch it.Li You knelt down strangely, bent over and leaned against the ground, turned his head to look under the container, trying to find the candy box.

Who knew that when he lowered his head and looked into the gap under the container, he suddenly saw a pair of heads with white cloudy eyeballs popping out, staring at him on the ground, the upper and lower jaws were pulled apart by external force until they were dislocated and cracked, and the mouth was black and red. His tongue was thick and slender hanging out of his mouth, hanging down on the floor tiles, like a rotting red slug crawling.

Li You couldn't help screaming in horror: "Ah ───────────────────────"

The voice pierced through the shopping mall sharply, echoing back and forth in the quiet shopping mall.

"What happened?"

After hearing the news, Wang Yang and Xiao Yi rushed over, guns in hand, looking at Li You, who was crying on the ground and choked in Fang Zhihong's arms, and could only ask Fang Zhihong.

"It's nothing, uh... When Xiaoyou was picking things up, he was accidentally scared by the dead zombies over there." Comforting the frightened Li You, patted his back, Fang Zhihong raised his chin and gestured forward. Bibi, pointing in the direction of the container that has been pushed aside.

Wang Yang and the others walked a little forward, and finally saw the zombie that startled Li You, a male zombie dressed like a cashier's uniform, his head was twisted 360 degrees, and his jaw was forced from up and down. It was torn open, what a professional extermination method and how much strength... I don't know who did it, the method is neat and ruthless enough.

At this time, a door next to the wall suddenly made a rustling sound. Wang Yang and Xiao Yi quickly became vigilant, raised their guns, and aimed at the door whose lock was being slowly unlocked.

After the door lock was unlocked, I waited for a while, as if time had been frozen, and the surrounding air was tense like a string that was about to be broken.

"boom!!"

The door was kicked open, and a figure appeared in front of them.

"you are?"

"……You are?"
