......

Li Ailun cleared away the broken glass that hadn't fallen off the windowsill one by one. Then he leaned half his body out of the window to observe and found that the infected people nearby had been alerted by the commotion and were slowly gathering downstairs.

Li Ailun turned his gaze back and tapped the outer wall trim hard with a fire axe to confirm its sturdiness and that it could meet the requirements for the implementation of the plan.

He casually placed the fire axe on the ground, then ripped off the curtain next to him, rolled it into a strip, and pulled on it to test its sturdiness.

He tightly tied one end of the rolled-up curtain fabric to the window frame between the two windowsills, making several knots.

After finishing his preparations, Li Ailun turned to Susan and said to her:

"Okay, come here."

Susan was quick-witted and instantly understood Li Ailun's intention. She walked up to Li Ailun, stopped, and asked:

"How to do it?"

“The waistline of the outer wall here is very wide, and people can stand on it. Go out of the window, stand close to the outer wall, and hide.”

As Li Ailun spoke, his hands moved without stopping. He wrapped the other end of the curtain around Susan's slender waist, tied a knot, tugged to make sure it was secure, and then instructed her:

"With this, you won't fall. If you're scared, just close your eyes and don't look down."

"how about you?"

Susan looked at him and asked.

"So, so... I'll lure them over. Those monsters have no intelligence; I just need to guide them a little, and I can take them all out at once."

After listening to Li Ailun's plan, Susan still felt some worry and fear, but she chose to trust him.

She took a deep breath, then, holding onto the window frame, stepped out onto the outer wall, making sure she could stand firmly. She then stepped out with her other foot. She gripped the window frame tightly and subconsciously looked down. She could see a dense crowd of people below. Because she was standing so high, she suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness.

Susan swallowed hard. She looked away and met Li Ailun's gaze across the windowsill.

"Are you scared?"

Seeing the faint fear in her eyes, Li Ailun suddenly smiled gently and asked her.

Seeing Li Ailun's deep eyes and calm smile, Susan suddenly felt less afraid. Her gaze hardened again, and she said stubbornly:

"...I'm not afraid."

Seeing that she had overcome her fear, Li Ailun nodded in satisfaction and said:

"Move to the side, don't let them hook you, it'll be over soon."

Susan slowly turned to face the outside, took a few deep breaths, and then began to carefully move to the side, one small step at a time.

She leaned against the outer wall, gazing at the open sky in the distance to distract herself and prevent herself from feeling nervous.

Seeing that Susan was ready, Li Ailun continued to implement his plan, fearing that if it took too long, Susan might not be able to hold on and something unexpected might happen.

He turned and walked towards the door, then forcefully pushed aside the sofa and desk blocking the doorway.

He cleared the space between the doorway and the window completely before slowly moving to the windowsill.

He waited...

......

As expected, it did not disappoint him. Without the sofa and desk blocking the way behind it, the simple wooden door quickly collapsed completely under the pushing of the infected.

The wooden door crashed to the ground with a loud bang, and the infected people crowded at the door rushed in. The infected people in front fell due to inertia and were trampled underfoot by the infected people behind them.

“Ho…ho…ho…”

The infected people who broke down the door saw Li Ailun standing by the window and rushed towards him frantically...

Without hesitation, Li Ailun turned around and flipped out of the window, landing steadily on the waistline of the outer wall.

He looked at the infected rushing towards him, feeling no fear, but rather a smile on his face; everything was within his calculations.

[bring it on.]

Seeing the infected person getting closer and closer, Li Ailun turned around and hid behind the wall, then moved to the side, clearing the empty window.

“Huh…Huh…”

Although the first infected individual suddenly lost its target, its momentum remained undiminished, driven by instinct to rush forward recklessly.

Then, tripped by the windowsill, the infected creature tumbled head over heels and plummeted towards the ground below, crashing heavily into the group of infected gathered there. This impact knocked down several of them and caused an even bigger commotion among the infected below...

Then came the second, the third, the fourth...

The infected people rushed into the office one by one, mindlessly charging forward, and then lined up and climbed out of the window like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

[...sixteen, seventeen.]

When Li Ailun counted to seventeen, the noise finally subsided, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The commotion just now attracted a total of seventeen infected individuals.

"Susan, that's enough, you can go back now."

He first turned to look to the side and saw Susan looking at him nervously, so he greeted her.

Susan looked away from Li Ailun, but couldn't help glancing down at her feet.

The group of infected people downstairs was thrown into chaos by the continuous falling of infected individuals.

The dense crowd of people made her legs feel weak, so she quickly looked away. Seeing Li Ailun slowly moving towards the window, she followed him step by step.

Just as Li Ailun moved to the windowsill, he suddenly stopped and took a few steps back. Susan also quickly stopped and dared not move.

"Wait a moment."

Because he saw another obese infected person inside, dragging a limp, walking towards him.

The two stopped moving and waited for the obese infected person to climb out of the window and fall down on its own.

The obese infected person was attracted by the smell and walked step by step to the window. He leaned his upper body out of the windowsill, but because of his size, he got stuck on the windowsill and did not fall out of the window like the infected person before him.

“Huh…Huh…”

The obese infected man was stuck on the windowsill, desperately trying to squeeze out, but he was stuck tightly. He kept waving his arms at the two people standing on the waistline of the outer wall, and kept letting out unwilling roars, his teeth grinding together.

Seeing this, Li Ailun was speechless. He had never expected this. Just as he was about to draw his dagger and finish off the unlucky infected in front of him.

An unexpected incident occurred: the obese infected man's constantly waving arm suddenly snagged on the curtains tied to the window frame and Susan. Seeing the situation was bad, Li Ailun immediately abandoned his attempt to draw the dagger and instead reached out to grab the curtains.

"what......"

Susan felt the curtain tied around her waist suddenly tug, causing her to lose her balance and fall. She only had time to let out a panicked scream.

Li Ailun, who was standing in front of her, was also tripped by the curtain and thrown off.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed the curtain, preventing himself from falling directly into the infected group downstairs.

The two of them were suspended by the curtains, swaying back and forth outside the building due to inertia...
