Now Gu Yao also has a fever, and only Li Yanqian and Guo Rongrong are left in the dormitory.
After eating some bread with a relatively short shelf life, the two went downstairs to confirm that the door of the dormitory building and the surrounding windows were closed before returning to the dormitory.
For the sake of safety, Li Yanqian also temporarily closed the elevator.
"So, if there's a breach on the fifth floor, even if a monster breaks in, we should be temporarily safe on the seventh floor," Li Yanqian said.
Guo Rongrong gave Li Yanqian a thumbs up. She, too, was trying to understand the situation outside. Despite her appearance, she was a serious computer teacher at the school.
Although the network signal was interrupted, Guo Rongrong discovered that several official websites in China could still be accessed! Although the speed was extremely slow, she managed to see a few video news reports.
Li Yanqian stood behind and watched as well.
As she knew, it wasn't just Nancheng City, but the same geological disasters and viruses had erupted throughout the country and even the world.
The video news referred to those infected with the virus as "zombies."
"At present, due to the temporary paralysis of various departments, including railway traffic, which is unable to operate normally, we are exploring ways to inform the public and organize self-help. Please stay away from people who have been bitten or scratched by zombies and protect yourself from being bitten. At the same time, try to find a safe area to hide..."
The news broadcaster didn't seem to be a professional, but Li Yanqian thought that the information provided was still very useful, as it at least let them know about the situation outside.
However, not a single piece of news called for everyone to take up arms to kill or fight the zombies.
But considering the circumstances, it was understandable, as no one dared to bear the consequences of risking people's lives.
"Zombies..." Guo Rongrong looked at the real-time video footage uploaded from the streets. If the news was true and the zombies were the dead, then there were no living people on those crowded streets anymore...
"It seems that there won't be a rescue anytime soon," Li Yanqian pointed to the scenes on the road captured in the video.
The collapsed houses due to the earthquake were still obstructing the road, and cars were jammed in the distance. Some cars seemed to have people inside, and zombies surrounded them, relentlessly pounding on the vehicles.
The roads had become like this, making ground transportation impossible. Guo Rongrong felt utterly hopeless.
"I don't know how long our food will last," Guo Rongrong weakly leaned on the bench and said.
"Teacher Guo, have you ever thought that if we stay here forever, it will eventually become a dead end?" Li Yanqian expressed her thoughts. It was still safe there, but their food was limited. If they remained trapped, they would starve to death eventually.
"You mean leaving here and searching outside for a place with food?" Guo Rongrong understood why Li Yanqian wasn't just an ordinary college student anymore. Her way of thinking had surpassed that of an average student.
"Yes, but only if we can ensure our own safety," Li Yanqian instantly felt that talking to Guo Rongrong was much easier than talking to Gu Yao.
"I agree with your idea, but we have to wait for Fuying and Gu Yao to recover. We can't do it alone." The most realistic issue was that she was still pregnant, and being pregnant at this time was truly terrible...
[Does anyone predict when Guo Rongrong will give birth?]
[Come on, pregnant women can't survive under those conditions.]
