Novel Bin Chapter 96 The Red Light Never Ceases
The zombie opened its blood-stained mouth, revealing terrifying, jagged teeth that made Lily instinctively step back in fear. She couldn\'t understand why David, at this moment, still hadn\'t turned around to look at her. Little did she know, David was standing just behind the nearby wall. The zombies were slowly making their way up the stairs, and David couldn\'t retreat completely. Fortunately, these zombies were not targeting him, so he remained quietly leaning against the wall.
As Lily let out a scream beside him, the zombies rushed into the room where they were. The scream didn\'t last long, but in those few seconds, Lily exerted all her strength to cry out. After about half a moment, the sound of the zombies slowly faded away.
David cautiously peeked out and breathed a sigh of relief. The zombies were gone, leaving only Brian and Lily\'s partially open door swaying back and forth. David let out another breath and walked forward. The door was covered in fresh bloodstains. He pulled out his alloy combat knife, prepared for any unexpected situations. He placed a hand on the area inside the room that wasn\'t splattered with blood, exerted a gentle force, and the door creaked open slowly.
Once the room was fully revealed, the scene inside was nauseating. Brian and Lily\'s bodies were nowhere to be seen; they had probably joined the majority of zombies and left. If he was lucky, he might see their transformed appearances in future zombie hunts. The floor inside the room was splattered with blood everywhere; there wasn\'t a clean spot to be found. Among the blood, numerous strands of hair were mixed in.
Furthermore, David could see a disgusting mixture of flesh fragments and blood. Even David felt a bit uncomfortable witnessing this scene. Just as David turned around, he met Monica\'s gaze. Monica stood there calmly, wearing high heels and crossing her arms.
David rubbed his forehead and asked, "How did you get up here?"
Monica looked at David and tossed her hair. "What\'s wrong? Any objections?"
David smiled faintly. He naturally knew Monica\'s strength as a formidable woman, but he didn\'t pay much attention to her either. The reason he asked was to prevent her from causing unnecessary trouble for him here. During the battle of doomsday, women sometimes only served to distract people. Who knew Monica would be so arrogant, seemingly full of confidence in her abilities.
David glanced at her, his lips curling up with a hint of amusement, and then he lightly clucked his tongue and walked away with his hands in his pockets.
The red glow in the sky had already diminished significantly, and the sun was slowly emerging. Judging by the situation, the red glow would likely completely recede within an hour. Monica stood in the corridor, looking up at the changing sky. After hesitating for a moment, she still spoke up.
"Abraham said this red glow won\'t go away." Just a short while ago, Monica had reported this matter, and they had come to this conclusion. She wasn\'t worried about staying here indefinitely; rather, she found the sudden appearance of the red glow very peculiar.
"It won\'t go away?" David looked at Monica with confusion. From Monica\'s words, he caught a crucial keyword. He had never heard of this person called Abraham.
"Is Abraham your leader?" David asked, questioning her. Monica turned her head, glanced at him, and remained silent before walking downstairs.
"How petty of you to expect me to be a part of the organization without even telling us that" David grumbled as he walked downstairs.
As David was walking down the stairs, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure. It was the man who was illuminated with red light and did not react. The difference this time was that the man was wearing a hat, which was pressed down so low that only a glimpse of his chin could be seen, as if he did it intentionally. The man\'s hands hung by his sides as he slowly descended the steps, stooped over.
Arnold\'s room was on this floor, and Monica had already left the staircase. For some reason, when David saw the man\'s appearance, he felt a sense of alertness. He couldn\'t let the man walk out of the staircase directly. Taking advantage of the situation, David continued to walk a few more steps downstairs.
Just as the man passed by David, a low voice reached his ears. "The red light will never cease." Thump! David\'s heart trembled, and he quickly turned around to look at the man. Their eyes met. In the next second, the man slowly raised his hand. His hand was not like that of a normal person, it resembled a withered branch, with only skin and bones remaining. He lifted his hat slightly, revealing his face with dark circles under his eyes.
Immediately after, the man looked at David and slightly opened his lips. Before he could speak, both of them heard footsteps. The man\'s face changed, he tightly closed his mouth, gave David a mysterious smile, lowered his hat again, and turned away.
"Wait..." David stepped forward, but before he could catch the man, Duke\'s voice came from behind. "What are you doing here?" Duke looked at David and questioned him.
At the same time, the man had just passed Duke and continued walking upstairs. Seeing the man\'s figure, David frowned, and his pace quickened.
A thought suddenly flashed through David\'s mind. Could it be that the red light had some enhancing effect on that man? Lost in thought, Duke approached and tapped David\'s shoulder. "What are you thinking? Go back. The zombies are coming."
Duke reminded him in a low voice, although his gaze was lowered, he kept a close eye on the approaching zombies. David didn\'t finish speaking, he just glanced at Duke lightly and walked away. The two of them returned to the room where almost everyone was present, except for Cola and Xiaohei.
"Why are we all gathered here?" David entered the room and asked puzzled.
Arnold glanced at everyone and asked, "David, what should we do about Brian and Lily?" Arnold knew very well about the abnormal behavior of the two, and now the situation around them was becoming increasingly dangerous. For the safety of everyone, he felt that he had to reveal everything about the two.
David understood Arnold\'s words, nodded, and casually said, "Brian is already dead. As for Lily, I believe she will continue to plot against us."
Upon hearing David\'s words, the people present were momentarily stunned, but then their expressions returned to normal. In their eyes, Brian\'s death was deserved, and Lily had brought her own misfortune upon herself. Hearing what David said, David revealed the actions they had taken in the past two days and their intentions.
"Damn, I didn\'t expect them to repay kindness with enmity!"
"Yes! It was David who saved them in the first place."
"The human mind is so complex. Thanks to David\'s timely discovery, otherwise we would have been in a terrible situation because of them."
The group began to discuss indignantly, while Sally sat beside David, tightly holding his hand, her expression filled with anger. If it weren\'t for David, they would probably have become wandering survivors in the apocalypse, or even dead.
At that moment, Monica walked over to the window near the door and raised her head to look inside the room, where the curtains were not completely closed. When she saw the scene before her eyes, she was instantly petrified! Without hesitation, she shouted loudly at the people in the room, "Run!"
