Chen Yun gave me a nickname: "Zombie Exorcist."

Quite fitting.

"Don't undo it again!" He bandaged my wound once more, "If you keep messing with it, even if you don't get infected with the zombie virus, your wound will soon become inflamed."

Just a moment ago, he disinfected the wound while pressing on it, and I was in so much pain that I felt like I was ascending to heaven on the spot, so I could only nod vigorously in understanding.

We took a shower in the abandoned hotel we passed by, changed into clean clothes we got from the mall, and returned to the car.

I scrolled through the news, but the more I scrolled, the more anxious I became.

The spread of the zombie virus was beyond imagination. In just a week, it had already expanded from our province to all the surrounding provinces.

I repeatedly checked on my parents' situation, calling them whenever I had a signal. Every time, my parents would tell me that everything was fine at home and asked me to find a safe place to hide.

Looking at the city around me, which resembled a pile of ruins, I couldn't imagine where could still be safe.

The shelter in City X opens up a limited number of spots every day. I logged in on time to participate in the lottery, but I couldn't get a spot no matter what.

Actually, I didn't really mind since, as long as I could make my move, evading zombies wouldn't be a problem.

However, I wanted to work in the shelter and then find an opportunity to bring my parents in. Given the speed and means of transmission, the collapse of other areas was only a matter of time.

After driving for two days, we arrived in City X but were stopped outside the city.

According to the regulations, only those who provide proof or have obtained a spot in the shelter can enter.

I could only lie in the car and wait for the next day's lottery, bored as I read various true and false news. There was an article that said the zombie virus could infect humans through food and drinking water, so some people, even though they hadn't been attacked, still became infected and mutated.

Fortunately, Chen Yun and I have come this far unscathed.

But I still feel a strange uneasiness.

I don't know where the antibodies in my body come from.

This fact unsettles me more than the possibility of being attacked by zombies at any moment.
