Chapter 35 Hotel Horror
The three of them felt a surge of warmth in their hearts in an instant.
In this apocalyptic world fraught with danger at every turn, they had actually felt a long-lost sense of warmth inside a hotel.
Dog Brother's eyes instantly moistened.
"Let's go!"
"Go back and save people!"
"We can't let those two good brothers be our scapegoats!"
Having said this, he took the lead and dashed back, with the other two hesitating only for a moment before rushing towards the door as well.
Clang—
The two security guards standing at the door were still in a daze when suddenly, the door was violently pushed open from behind, and they were instantly dragged inside by three pairs of arms.
The vacuous smiles on their faces fell off abruptly under the forceful action.
Dog Brother, completely oblivious, was closing the door while shouting at the two to push the sofa over from the side.
Outside, the zombies surged, and the continuous pounding noises made the three of them break out in cold sweat.
Only when the noise outside subsided did they take a breath of relief and turned to greet the two the hotel security guards who had sacrificed themselves for others.
These two "people" were somewhat strange, silent from the beginning to end, and now they were trying to get up from the ground.
Dog Brother hurried forward, extending a hand.
"How are you, brother?"
"You alright?"
But the person in front of him acted as if he hadn't heard Dog Brother at all and didn't even seem to intend to grab Dog Brother's hand to help himself up, merely propping himself up from the floor to stand.
Dog Brother felt a bit awkward.
But Zhang Wei behind him quietly tapped him.
"Dog Brother, something seems off."
This reminder made Dog Brother suddenly feel as if the temperature in the hotel had dropped precipitously.
It was as if something was burrowing into his skin through his pores.
Why aren't they speaking?
As these thoughts ran through his mind, Song Hao suddenly cried out in terror from behind, "Look, look at their faces!"
Hearing this, the two immediately turned their gaze toward the security guards' faces.
And altogether, they took in a sharp breath of cold air.
When did the masks fall off?
Their shriveled faces, their blood-red eyes, these two security guards had actually turned into zombies!
Dog Brother, being a team leader, didn't hesitate and swung the hammer in his hand, striking the zombie wearing the security uniform in front of him!
Song Hao and Zhang Wei also pulled out their weapons and flanked from both sides.
Their coordination was seamless.
If it weren't for the suddenness of the event, these two zombies would not have even been a concern for them.
But just then, the elevator dinged.
Ding.
The crisp sound instantly drew the attention of the three men to the elevator, where behind the slowly opening door, four figures wearing smiling masks appeared.
The expressions on the three men's faces froze instantly.
Four more?
This is the end.
Compensate?
With what?
It couldn't possibly be the two zombies, right?
As they thought about this, they all shook their heads in unison, certain it wasn't possible.
This was the apocalypse after all, where human nature was inscrutable, and this man could control zombies, clearly making him the legendary main character.
Nowadays, who hasn't read a few apocalyptic novels?
Main characters were known for killing without batting an eye!
If you harm my dog, I would have to slaughter your entire family!
Now Gou Ge, in an attempt to save his life, had straight-up killed two of the man's zombie underlings, so it was needless to wonder what kind of compensation he wanted, it would surely be their lives!
Clearly, all three understood this principle, their complexions turning extremely ugly.
Gou Ge bit his teeth, deciding to take responsibility for his own actions. He looked at Zhang Ye and raised a finger.
He would compensate with his own life.
Zhang Wei and Song Hao would surely take care of his family out of gratitude if they managed to return alive.
Zhang Ye saw and thought, just one person?
That wouldn't do.
He raised three fingers.
The implication was already very clear, all three must stay.
Killing his men and thinking you could get away by sacrificing just one person was wishful thinking.
Little did he know, when the three saw his gesture, their expressions instantly changed.
Gou Ge looked at Zhang Ye with eyes full of rage, like an angry bull on the verge of losing control.
The other two were shaking all over, their last sliver of hope completely extinguished.
He was asking for the lives of all three of them!
Just then, Liu Qingqing suddenly leaned in and whispered in Zhang Ye's ear,
"Ye Zi, they don't seem too happy."
"Should we add to the salary?"
Zhang Ye heard this and realized it seemed to be the case.
How could he recruit without discussing the terms?
He immediately raised another hand, all five fingers spread out.
However, the three below went crazy on the spot, with Gou Ge shouting "I'm going to fight you!" as he stood up and charged.
Just at that moment, five heavy bags were dropped in front of him.
There seemed to be a few words written on them.
"San Jiang... Wuchang rice?"
Gou Ge's pupils contracted, and his body abruptly stopped.
What was this situation?
Food?
At the same time, the man's voice, slightly surprised, echoed in their ears again.
"What the heck?"
"What's with you?"
"I'm offering you food, and you still want to hit me?"
