“Where were you when the children and I were in danger?”
“Where were you when the children and I were on the brink of death?”
“Where were you when my children and I lacked food and water and had nothing, about to starve to death???”
The three continuous heavy-weighted questions exploded around Ah-Jin, turning him dizzy and his face pale. He firmly embraced the children’s shoulders and shakily looked at his bitter and interrogating wife.
“I… I…”
“What right do you have to question me?” The woman finally stood up. She fiercely pounded her chest and screamed hoarsely, “If I didn’t take refuge with the mayor! If I didn’t rack my brain and struggle on whilst at death’s door! Do you think you would still see the children and me standing before you nearly two weeks later?!”
Ah-Jin powerless knelt on the ground with a “Dong.” A full-grown adult man actually started bawling on the spot.
“We’re just normal people!” The woman stepped closer and closer to Qiao Mu and her group. She screamed at the top of her lungs, “We just wanted to try our hardest to survive! We wanted to live! Live! What did we do wrong?”
Absolute silence descended on the second floor of Fresh Breeze Academy.
Everyone grew silent, speechless at the face of the woman’s inquiries.
The woman sobbed and said with a trembling voice, “We are not like you experts who have the ability to protect yourselves and hold limitless power! You can survive in this type of frightening world. How could you understand how fragile a normal person’s life is?”
“You’re right. There isn’t anything wrong with struggling to survive.” Xu Shanshan lightly nodded. “However, inhuman practices like disregarding your companions’ lives to stay alive and penning your companions to become the food of a level-three zombie aren’t something we can agree with.”
Qiao Mu looked up and intently watched Xu Shanshan through the crowd with a faint smile flitting through her eyes.
Eldest Senior Sister was exceptionally intelligent. She unsurprisingly saw the problem.
Ah-Qing suddenly covered her face and broke into bitter weeping.
Ah-Jin tearfully pounded the ground and looked up at his wife. “Is she right? Is she? Where are your parents? Did you turn your parents into food to give to the zombie???”
“Ah! AHHH!” Ah-Qing crumbled onto the floor. She emotionally shook her head repeatedly, tears seeping through her clothes. “I didn’t want to! I didn’t want to!”
Xu Shanshan coldly fixed her eyes on the sobbing and kneeling Ah-Qing. Her voice was light but every word powerfully reverberated in its listeners’ ears. “For our lives, we can choose to lose our dignity! However, as humans, we must at least retain our bottom lines—that is something that we can’t lose.”
Her elderly parents silently crying faces flitted in front of Ah-Qing’s eyes. Then, her siblings’ adorable and vivacious children skipped through her eyes.
To survive, she completely abandoned her morals and utterly forsook her closest family…
Ah-Qing was beside herself with tears. She cried, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
However, there was no turning back.
“After the initial rush of the zombie outbreak, our group was forced to move here.” Ah-Qing silently cried and lightly said, “However, people started dying amongst us. That was when the nightmare began.”
“After the mayor’s son and daughter-in-law died, they both mutated. That was the level-three zombie that you spoke of, he’s the mayor’s son.”
“The mayor said that he had a way to control these two strong zombies, but he demanded that we provide a person to be their food every day.”
