54 Chapter 53: Li Xiaoyu III (1/2)

The sound of police sirens ringing causes the entire world outside to liven up.

After a while, the sirens stop. My windows can't see what is going on for my apartment is on the backside of the building.

I quickly take out a can of hairspray which I use and take a lighter. I take all my things and get them prepared near the window. I aim the hairspray at the door and have my lighter in hand.

If something tries to break down my door I will spray the door with hair spray, turn on the gas and the toaster and bolt out the window.

Soon I hear footsteps from outside the door. The footsteps came creeping closer and closer to my door.

I felt relieved when I heard a knock. For a knock signifies that it is likely a human. Unless zombies are intelligent and know how to knock...

I don't let down my guard however and keep quiet.

”It's me.”

It seems to be my brother's voice. I suddenly grew excited.

But before I go up to the peephole to confirm my cell phone's ringtone sounds.

”It's my brother!”

I immediately drop my hairspray and lighter on the chair nearby and go for the door to pull aside the mattress which I put there to keep the door in place.

When he opens the door I greet him with a bear hug.

I then got into an hour-long discussion with him about what the world has become.

In that hour-long discussion, I noticed somethings which were off about him...

First things first are his expressions. You wouldn't think he past by and killed a bunch of zombies on his way back from the hellish outside world which he described to me. After telling me more things about what the world outside has become I also noticed that he was speaking to me and telling me things which I don't know how he knows. Such as the fact that there is going to be something happening after a month so we better build a survival base camp and whatnot. But the weird thing is that he is saying what he is going to do so straightforwardly like he has a plan in mind and knows what is going to happen and is preparing for it.

Something is off about him. Well, something is always off about him but something is truly off about him now.

We leave the apartment and I don't see any Zombies around. I left behind my bow and arrows after seeing my brother having a gun in hand so I didn't bother carrying something so heavy with me when my brother has a gun on him.
