To the south of Mingwen Girls’ High School is a very prosperous shopping mall.
At this usual time, the shopping mall is bound to be occupied by a group of aunts, forming a party like group carnival with the singing of Little Apple.
Today, the square is empty, and the aunts, regardless of rain or shine, may not dare to come here to sing and dance. As they sang and danced last night, they witnessed a group of evil wolves devouring their dance partners alive.
The bloodstains have been washed away by the rain, and what remains of the huge square are some human limbs. If you look at them a few times, you will vomit.
Around the square, there are always some low growls and growls coming out, and from time to time, they scream and cut through the gloom, immediately knowing that another person has been found by the demon.
The shopping mall occupies nearly one-third of the square area. This is a brand new shopping mall, but it has become completely damaged due to the wanton actions of demons. There are broken glass, smashed walls and doors, and messy floors everywhere.
The ground floor of the square is Wal Mart Supermarket. Human food is not very attractive to demons. Otherwise, there will soon be a gathering place of demons.
The supermarket is fortunate that the reason why it needs to take the elevator down has not yet been discovered by the demon.
The people hiding in the supermarket sat helpless on the ground, all they could do was pray that the demon would never find here.
“Are we just being abandoned?” asked a girl in a small voice, sobbing incessantly in the corner, hugging her knees.
“Most of the people outside are dead, and it will be a matter of time before we are found here.” The manager of the supermarket sat there dejectedly, his face numb and said.
“No, sitting here will only wait for death. We have to go out, there is still a glimmer of life outside,” said the man in charge of carrying supermarket goods.
“I am a plumber and have been doing this work for decades. If you all follow me down the tunnel, you won’t run into demons,” said the middle-aged, thin man in blue overalls.
Everyone’s eyes lit up when they heard the man say.
“I heard a young man who had escaped here say that demons can be seen everywhere outside, and if they reach the ground, they will be eaten by them every minute. If they go underground, they can easily cross the inscription to reach the security barrier.”. Since there are workers who are familiar with urban underground drainage systems, they are not likely to get lost below.
“Let’s go, hurry up. I don’t want to stay in this damn place.”
“Yes, under the blood color alert, there is basically no hope of survival without evacuation to the security barrier…”
“Let’s go, hurry up, this place will be discovered by demons sooner or later.”
There are about 15 people in the supermarket, and a glimmer of hope for survival flickered in their eyes after hearing the plumber leading the way.
It happens that the supermarket has a direct entrance to the underpass, so they have a chance to withdraw to the safety barrier.
The crowd quickly packed up and followed the plumber to collectively retreat to the underground.
“Wait a minute, you guys, wait a minute, who can help? There’s a girl in a wheelchair here, she shouldn’t be able to walk…” A thin little girl hurriedly said to the group of people who were about to leave.
“Neuropathy, who cares about her now?”
“Yes, we can’t use a wheelchair in the sewer. Girl, if you want to follow us quickly,” said the fat supermarket manager.
The plumber walked ahead, and everyone else pretended not to hear, quickly following the plumber.
“So who of you is carrying her on your back, please, don’t leave her behind, please.” The little girl was almost crying, and seeing those people walking away for a while, she didn’t know what to do.
Although a few people turned their heads and looked at the girl in the wheelchair with a bit of unbearable expression, unfortunately, they still didn’t turn their heads
“They cannot protect themselves, and if they encounter a demon in the underground, they cannot escape with a girl on their back.”.
“We’re not doing well, right? The girl looks very pitiful,” one of the women whispered.
“What’s not so good? She can’t walk on her own. How can we be blamed? If you feel sorry for her, go carry her on your back. Don’t blame me for not telling you. Many pipes in the sewer have to climb up and down, and some ladders make your legs even weaker. With her, we probably won’t be able to reach the safety barrier for a day or two,” said the plumber.
“The supermarket may not be found by the demon, she will be there waiting for rescue.”
Everyone couldn’t help but gasp at the words of waiting for rescue.
There is no possibility of rescue under the blood color alert, and most magicians will be summoned to the security barrier to ensure the safety of more people. Most of those wandering outside will have to find their own way to evacuate.
Therefore, the girl in a wheelchair can only pray that the supermarket will never be discovered by demons.
……
The supermarket was soon empty, and the skinny girl who had just spoken was still standing next to the girl in the wheelchair. She looked at the receding figures, her lips almost breaking.
“You go with them,” the girl in the wheelchair forced a smile and said to the strange girl beside her.
“I’m sorry… I really want to take you with me.” The thin woman said in great embarrassment.
“It’s okay, just follow them.”
“Is there anything I can do for you?”
The wheelchair girl seemed to have thought of something and quickly took off her bracelet and handed it to the skinny woman, saying, “If you reach the safety barrier, give this to my family…”
The skinny girl quickly remembered the information about the wheelchair girl’s family and nodded earnestly, “Don’t worry, I’ll tell them and let them find ways to save you.”
The wheelchair girl shook her head and said, “Could you please tell him that I have been killed?”
The skinny woman opened her mouth in surprise and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Finally, the skinny woman turned around and left. Several times, she tried to turn her head but resisted.
……
The cold colored lights scattered on the corner, and Jia Qian, a white-collar worker here, felt very, really uncomfortable. She had thought that some of the men would stand up and be willing to carry the girl away, but they all left in a hurry
This indifference is chilling.
However, what can Jia Qian do? Her leg is still injured, and it’s great to be able to keep up with those people with a limp. It’s impossible for a girl to carry a wheelchair.
The girl in the wheelchair, who didn’t know her name, looked calm. When everyone decided to leave her behind, she didn’t even pray for anything, and she couldn’t even see the panic and despair in her eyes.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
Jia Qian’s lips were all bitten open, and finally she could only keep apologizing and running towards those who had left before.
Suddenly, the entire supermarket was empty, leaving only a simple and inexpensive wheelchair and a girl wearing a light green colored skirt
Everyone had already left, and Ye Xinxia slowly lowered her head, her hair covering her face, her white little palms folded on her legs.
Even if it is so calm, the unease will still spread, and the best manifestation is the involuntary grasp of the skirt.
She didn’t blame those people in her heart, just like she couldn’t walk. Who could she blame?
Everyone has the right to live well.
However, when the silence around you is terrifying, when you don’t even know when you will die, the helplessness that feels like being abandoned by the entire world will spread to every inch of cells in your body, making it unclear whether you are continuing to endure and wait helplessly; Or is it all over and there’s no need to linger in this world?
As if she had made some decision, she slowly pushed the wheelchair and slowly brought herself closer to the kitchen utensils area.
She struggled to get up from her wheelchair and grabbed one of the sharp fruit knives.
She can stand up and barely walk a few steps, but her weak legs will soon tire her out.
Sitting back in the wheelchair, she slowly pushed the wheelchair back to the previous position
……
Ye Xinxia’s move happened to fall into the eyes of Jia Qian, a white-collar worker who was about to leave the supermarket in the distance, and a hint of guilt spread in her heart again.
Perhaps as soon as a demon enters this supermarket, the wheelchair girl will end her life on her own.
Jia Qian took a deep breath and finally closed the door.
