I shook my head solemnly at Lin Long, indicating for her to look at You Jia's arm.

Lin Long covered her mouth and whispered, "She's infected?"

I nodded silently.

In the previous life, after You Jia turned into a zombie, she was promptly expelled from the dormitory.

But the danger didn't end there.

The men You Jia brought weren't good people; they were thugs she met outside of school.

During the three days we spent together, they devoured our already scarce food supplies and even crazily attempted to assault us.

Later, Lin Long and I escaped from the dormitory, barely surviving.

In this life, I would never let them in again.

The two men, seeing that no one was opening the door, started kicking it.

The thin door couldn't withstand their kicks for long.

I quickly found a way to respond, imitating a zombie's howl.

"Roar——"

I howled and pounded on the door.

Sure enough, the noise outside suddenly stopped.

Then, hurried footsteps retreated; they must have run away.

Lin Long covered her face and cried bitterly.

I knew how devastating it was to watch a classmate turn into a monster, but I had lived in the apocalypse for ten years and had experienced such scenes too many times, my heart had long turned cold and hard.

I was thinking about how to escape.

Suddenly, I heard the door of dormitory 502 open next door.

A girl walked out and shouted, "You Jia! Why are you running? And why are there boys? Are they here for a dorm inspection?"

My heart skipped a beat.

Through the peephole, I saw our classmate Su Yuanyuan standing at the door of 502, waving towards the hallway.

Soon after, You Jia and the two men who had run away came back.

I quickly shouted through the door gap, "Get back to your dorm! Stay away from You Jia, she's been bitten by a zombie!"

But it was too late.

The two men ran into room 502 first.

Just as You Jia was about to step into the room, she paused when she heard my voice.

The next second, she was furious!

"Qiao Zhiwei! You bitch, you pretended to be a zombie to stop me from entering the dormitory?"

I deliberately slowed my speech to attract You Jia's attention.

"You've been bitten and will soon turn into a zombie. I'm doing this just to protect myself."

You Jia's face turned pale.

If Su Yuanyuan was smart enough, this pause would be enough for her to escape.

But she didn't notice the wound on You Jia's arm at all, instead frowning and saying, "What zombies? It's not Halloween. Are you playing cosplay?"

She had no idea what had happened downstairs.

Through the peephole, I saw abnormal veins suddenly bulging on You Jia's face.

She was about to transform into a zombie.

I shouted, "Watch out behind you!"

Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and said, "Stop playing!"

She grabbed You Jia's hand and was about to enter the dormitory.

What awaited her was a loud "Bang——".

The door of 502 was slammed shut.

Su Yuanyuan was startled and quickly knocked on the door, "What are you doing? Open the door!"

Behind her, You Jia had already undergone a terrifying transformation.

Her transformation into a zombie was fast. A few seconds ago, her face was only pale. A few seconds later, her whole body seemed to rot rapidly, and foul-smelling thick saliva dripped from her mouth.

She lifted her head and sniffed the air a few times, quickly locking onto Su Yuanyuan.

Su Yuanyuan finally realized something was wrong.

She turned around in horror, coming face to face with the zombified You Jia.

"Ah!——"

The scream stuck in her throat.

The next second, You Jia grabbed her neck and bit down hard.

"Rip——" Blood spurted out.
