So Close Yet So Far
Zhang Xiao Qiang was shaking and looking in all directions, trying to find a way out. Numerous zombies from both ends of the streets were closing in on him. He blamed himself for not being careful enough. Seeing the zombies getting closer to him, he grew more anxious.
To get away from the S zombies behind him, he had to go forwards into the group of normal zombies on the street. His eyes were fixed on the group of zombies and when he noticed a bus in the corner of his eye, his eyes lit up.
It was a luxury bus but the front had smashed into the corner of a building. The body had the words “XX City Port Group” printed on it. There was a pickup truck behind the bus. The 4m height of the vehicle would allow him to temporarily escape the zombies. The S zombies behind him were getting closer and closer so he didn’t hesitate and ran to the bus.
Zhang Xiao Qiang got onto the back of the pickup truck. He climbed onto the roof and jumped onto the bus.
“Ping”
He landed on the edge of the bus. His backpack affected his landing. The top half of his body was on the roof but his lower half was scrambling to climb up but his backpack was causing him to start to slip off.
“I’m going to die because of this bag sooner or later” Zhang Xiao Qiang scolded as he was trying to climb onto the bus. The S zombies were almost there. One hard push on the bus’ windowsill gave him the little bit more force he needed to get onto the bus. Just as he pulled his legs up, he heard a bang sound. It was the body of the bus being rocked.
Zhang Xiao Qiang looked below. An S zombie was on the ground. Looks like it just rammed into the bus. Zhang Xiao Qiang lied on the roof, staring at the gloomy sky with the backpack to one side. His chest rising and falling quickly. The possibility of death just then had consumed a lot of his energy. The feeling of hunger struck once again.
Sitting up and opening the backpack he took out a few packets of instant noodles and ate them dry, leaving no time to even drink water. Zhang Xiao Qiang’s rolling on the ground didn’t seem to cause any damage to the military water bottle. There were just a few places where the paint had worn off.
