I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

Chapter 48 The evil of human nature has no bottom line

Liu Shan paused, seeming to recall the scene. He took another long drag on his cigarette and continued, "At that time, I snorted inwardly. Everyone was running downstairs, not even waiting for the elevator. It must have been a serious matter. Besides, you were about to fire me, and you still wanted me to risk my life? Why?"

"But I'm a bit timid. Wang Chunfen kept urging me, and I thought this might be an opportunity to gain her favor. So, I picked up a rubber stick and slowly made my way up to the second floor. The corridor was deserted, and the same thing happened on the third floor."

"I climbed four or five floors in a row, and I was so tired that I couldn't breathe. Suddenly, I saw four or five people pressing down on one person on the stairs above me!"

"I swear, I'll never forget that scene. At that time, I opened my mouth wide but couldn't scream. I covered my head and ran downstairs. This wasn't murder, this was cannibalism!"

"When I ran downstairs, I rushed out the door without a second thought. But as soon as I got out, I was stunned. The entire street was in shambles, filled with chaotic crowds of people, crying and shouting for their parents. Among them were hideous monsters with bared fangs and claws. One by one, they were thrown to the ground and quickly mauled to death..."

"This bloody scene frightened me so much that I screamed and fled back to the building. I closed the door, rushed into the gatehouse, and rolled under the cot used for duty."

"As soon as I entered, I heard a scream that scared me out of my wits. My heart was about to jump out of my chest. I turned around and saw Wang Chunfen hiding under the bed. She pushed me out hard to stop me from hiding inside."

Liu Shan chuckled at this point, revealing a hint of sarcasm. "That woman is usually arrogant and domineering. Her husband is the police officer in charge of this area, and is said to be a director. He is very arrogant every day. How could he care about my life or death?"

"I had no choice but to crawl out and hide under the table. Soon, the cries for help outside gradually died down, and were replaced by a strange sound, like someone being strangled and unable to scream."

"After a while, she stuck half her head out from under the bed and commanded me to go out and see what was making the noise. I wasn't stupid, so how could I dare to go out? When she saw that I didn't move, she threatened me, asking me if I really wanted to do this job anymore."

"I had no choice but to muster up the courage to go out and see. There were monsters everywhere outside, so I just took a quick look and slipped back. That's how she and I hid in the gatehouse for seven or eight days. I secretly went up to the hotel on the fourth floor to get food and drinks."

Qin Zhong couldn't help but ask, "It's been almost half a year since July 4th, and you still don't understand what happened? You're still so obedient to her."

Liu Shan just chuckled: "How is that possible? Although I have little education, I am not stupid. I was just thinking, this woman is usually arrogant. She relies on me for support now, but she still puts on airs and never gives me a good face..."

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Qin Zhong couldn't help but ask the question he had been wanting to ask. Liu Shan touched the large black mole on his left cheek, slowly twisting the three strands of hair. After a long pause, he said sinisterly, "I was just thinking, if I could lift a woman as arrogant as her up high and then throw her down hard, it would be a very interesting scene. Only in this way could I dispel the hatred I've felt for the past few years."

Although Qin Zhong had a vague guess of Liu Shan's intention, when he heard him say it in person and listened to his sinister smile like a night owl, he felt a chill in his heart. The evil of human nature really has no bottom line.

Liu Shan's psychology is a bit abnormal, but then again, in the end times, how many people are normal?

……

Glancing at Liu Shan, Qin Zhong said calmly, "I don't care what you want to do. I'll be back soon. I need to go to the 21st floor and I might need that woman's help. As long as you don't ruin my plans, I won't bother with you."

"Uh!"

Liu Shan hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously, "Brother, I have to advise you not to go above the 18th floor. It's... dangerous there."

Seeing Qin Zhong looking at him, Liu Shan licked his lips and continued, "Before, there were actually more than just the three of us here. Those who survived the entire building, plus those who ran in for shelter from outside, totaled to nearly twenty people. Originally, we were all pretty good together..."

"Later, someone saw a five-pointed star on the 20th floor, hanging in the air at a height of a person. Some tried to touch it but failed. Later, monsters and even quite a few zombies ran into the Hang Lung Building."

"These monsters fought a fierce battle on the 20th floor, nearly destroying the entire floor. Many of us survivors died, and the remaining seven or eight people all ran down. Originally, I took Wang Chunfen to the building across the street, but when we saw that the building had returned to normal, I came back because I was most familiar with it."

Liu Shan continued, "I've been waiting, waiting for the day when Wang Chunfen, that arrogant woman, and her idiot daughter really think they can still act as recklessly as they did before the end of the world, hehe..."

Qin Zhong waved his hand, impatiently interrupting his boring words, and asked, "Don't tell me your dirty thoughts. I'm not interested. I just want to know, is that five-pointed star still there?"

"This one……"

Liu Shan hesitated for a moment, then honestly said, "Later, I went up to the 20th floor once. There was severe damage there, and the five-pointed star was gone!"

"Ugh!"

Qin Zhong sighed deeply in his heart. This was almost what he expected. So many days have passed. If it is still there, that would be weird!

"Come on, let's go back!"

Seeing that he understood everything he wanted to know and didn't want to waste any more time, he wanted to go to the 21st floor as soon as possible. If he could find what Sun Xiaoyan had told him, it would also help solve a problem.

For Qin Zhong, the line of Sun Xiaoyan is very important, as it is related to everything he will experience in the apocalypse in the later period. Therefore, he pays special attention to Sun Xiaoyan's affairs.

Liu Shan had wanted to go back for a long time. When he heard Qin Zhong say that, the two of them immediately followed the same route back to the Hang Lung Building. The only difference was that this time, they entered the Hang Lung Building directly from the second floor and went all the way back to the payment hall on the sixteenth floor.

At this time in the payment hall, Wang Chunfen had woken up and was hugging her daughter Xiaoan. Both of their eyes were a little red, as if they had just cried.

As soon as she saw Qin Zhong and Liu Shan coming back, Wang Chunfen subconsciously wanted to take Xiao An and hide, but then she realized that this place was so small and there was no place to hide.
