Chapter 30 (2/2)

Shen Chen’s words caused a few gasps. ‘More than three hundred zombies? This time, it’s more than three hundred zombies! How did they survive? If that’s really the case, no wonder Li Qi was so severely wounded.’

What Shen Chen said was an irrefutable fact. Zhao Ze couldn’t deny it, so he had to nod at him. Then, he asked, “So what?”

“At that time, on the fourth floor, you alerted the zombies, and you were the first to escape. When you fled from the fire door on the fourth floor, you locked Zhao Zhen and me in it, didn’t you?”

Everyone’s eyes suddenly turned to Zhao Ze. Why had Zhao Ze done this? His intention was to kill Shen Chen and Zhao Zhen.

Zhang Xiaoya was breathing quickly and tried to calm herself. During these days, Zhao Zhen had been her umbrella that protected her from danger. She couldn’t imagine what future days would bring if Zhao Zhen died.

“I… I don’t know…” Zhao Ze bit his teeth and refused to admit that he had tried to kill Shen Chen and Zhao Zhen. “I don’t know what you are talking about…”

“You don’t want to admit it? It doesn’t matter. I will help you remember.” Shen Chen didn’t care about Zhao Ze’s little tricks. Instead, he came to sit in front of Zhao Ze. Everyone noticed Shen Chen’s threatening look at Zhao Ze!

Shen Chen gave a sneer and said, “After that, Zhao Zhen and I killed the zombies and fled from the fourth floor, only to find Guo Yuan looking for us alone on the third floor. Guo Yuan told us that you ran away to the third floor and met them. You told Guo Yuan that we were trapped on the fourth floor, but you took them to look for us at another fire stairs, didn’t you?”

“Yes! I had to find someone to help you because you were trapped on the fourth floor. I didn’t do anything wrong,” Zhao Ze shouted, and tried to put on an innocent look.

Shen Chen sneered. “You knew we weren’t trapped in the fire stairs at the east side, but you still took them to those stairs. How do you explain this?” Seeing that Zhao Ze was going to find excuses for himself, Shen Chen continued, “In fact, you never wanted to save us. And you didn’t take Pan Di to the fourth floor, because you knew there were too many zombies on the fourth floor. Even if you took both of them to the fourth floor, and even if they were eaten by the zombies, you might not be able to leave there safely in time.”

All of sudden, the others finally figured out what had happened. But if Zhao Ze didn’t take them to the fourth floor, where did they go? What made Li Qi die?

Everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity and puzzlement, watching Shen Chen suddenly stand up. His feet were getting close to Zhao Ze.

“So you took them to different stairs. And when the others were looking for me, you knocked out Pan Di and cut Li Qi down. Then, you left them in the nearest room to you.”

“Bullsh*t! You are lying!” Zhao Ze was trembling. He knew that Shen Chen knew all that had happened. He was on the verge of collapse!

“Don’t worry. Listen to me.” Shen Chen walked slowly to Zhao Ze and said calmly, “Then you hid in the nearby room, where you heard Guo Zhen find us. And you found out that we were not locked in the fourth floor as you thought. This scared you because according to your plan, we should have been dead.”

Shen Chen said, “But what Guo Zhen said to us made you come up with a new plan! At that time, I really thought that you took them to the fourth floor. I thought you were going to kill them, so I wanted to save them. And this gave you a chance to carry out your new plot!”

Zhao Ze’s mouth was twitching in an uncontrollable way. The muscles on his face were twitching violently, which looked extremely frightening.

By this time, everyone believed what Shen Chen said. After all, they didn’t believe that Shen Chen could make up such a flawless lie! Their eyes, looking at Zhao Ze, turned cold, especially Zhang Hongtao’s.

Shen Chen said slowly, recalling the horrible scene in the corridor, “Although I tried my best, I failed to catch up with you. When I got to the fourth floor, I found that Pan Di and Li Qi were not among the more than three hundred zombies. I even thought that you were mistaken at that time. You didn’t bring them up there. But when I was about to leave, the fire door was locked again. I was locked in the Chinese restaurant once again with more than three hundred zombies in it. This time, I couldn’t open the fire door!”
