Chapter 9: Interrogation

Sun Chengzhong was dumbfounded and said: “This is for many reasons. We don’t have enough food and water, there are too many corpses out there, and when they hear the sound of the car, they run to block the road and we can’t get out.

“Moreover, the ground in many places outside is split, forming huge craters, and in some places there is a rat tide, there is a strange tornado-like barrier that can’t get out. Unless many people work together, maybe we cannot find a way out, but we only have two people……Don’t dare go out.”

Ye Yang was surprised.

The world was more complex than he thought. In this eschatology, there were not only corpses, the werewolves around them were also a little weird.

“So, have you stayed in Wuyin City?” He asked.

“Yes.”

“You don’t want to go out or occupy a supermarket?”

“I thought about it, but I couldn’t do it.”

“I see the nearby house, many doors are good, why don’t you try to break them and open?” Ye Yang asked again.

He believed there must be plenty of people in those houses with food and drinking water and other useful things.

Sun Chengzhong explained: “It’s hard to break and open the door and the sound will attack corpses. Moreover, if there are no living people in those houses, there would be corpses and they will not allow you to enter. If there are living people in those houses, they will also not allow entering you as you will break their door. I don’t know which house has no corpses or living people, so I just go to the supermarket and the small shop that’s open in the nearby doorway and get food.”

It makes sense.

Ye Yang asked: “You seem familiar with the surroundings, how do you know there is a rat tide out there, and you know there are many craters?”

It is not strange to know that there is a pit or an unusual thing, but it is strange to find that there is a rat tide that can escape.

Sun Chengzhong said: “I heard Su YuJuan say……Starting three months ago, the city centre sounded an air-defence alarm every day. Corpses are very sensitive to the sound. When they hear the sound, they were headed toward the city canter. We can take the opportunity to go out and take some food at that time.”

“Well, your wife secretly went out to get some food and you’re stuck at home, right?” Ye Yang smiled coldly.

Sun Chengzhong’s face was humbled and redder than before. He didn’t dare say back, saying only: “That’s when Su Yujuan knew about the outside world.”

Ye Yang asked: “Did you not ask her how she discovered the rat tide and avoided it?”

“No, no.” Sun Chengzhong said.

Ye Yang couldn’t help but stare.

It’s awesome. It’s awful. It’s unbelievable.

“But there were no air-defence alerts more than a week ago.” Ye Yang said.

“Yeah, yeah, so we haven’t eaten for a few days.” Sun Chengzhong said.

“But you still have alcohol.” Ye Yang said.

Sun Chengzhong said: “Just a little, just a little.”

Yang Ye smiled coldly and asked: “Do you know how this necrophilia virus broke out? How did the end come?”

Sun Chengzhong had a whiff of suspicion in his eyes, but was well hidden: “I don’t know very clearly, it suddenly broke out three months ago. when all of us pulled up a few phone calls, one claiming to be an official department, one claiming to be a bank, one claiming to be an army, all recorded, and demanded that those who received the phone call must immediately return home, waiting for the official order, and no one should go out.”

“Did you guys go home when you received the phone call?” Ye Yang asked.

“No. Some people went back, others didn’t. But then the phone received a text message again, and the penguin gets the official message and the online payment account was automatically closed and received the same message. A lot of people around here are getting the same message and the same phone content, and also sounded the air defence alarm, so many people ran home.” Sun Chengzhong said, his fingers were trembling slightly, it seemed a bit uneasy.

Ye Yang stared at him coldly: “Is there any more? What do you know about the outbreak of the end?”

Mr. Sun Chengzhong shivered and hesitated, saying: “I also heard that I heard a rumour, I don’t know if it is true or not.

“What rumours?”

“It is said that before the outbreak of the Necrophilia Virus, most people’s mobile phones could not make calls and could not make outgoing calls, but many people received mysterious calls half a day or a day in advance, saying that they must rush to a military base and must not reveal information, otherwise it will be denied access to that base, and the bank account will be frozen. At the same time, the leaker is equivalent to committing the crime of treason and secret.”

Ye Yang’s eyes were small and he thought: If this Sun Chengzhong is not lying, the world’s official must have known in advance that the end would break out. However, the message was not conveyed at the earliest possible time, fearing that it would cause unnecessary unrest. Then, some private communications were closed to save communication lines, and the official used this line to make calls to some people.

The phone should be computer-controlled, bulk-sending of the same recordings, with different cities sending different people to different shelters. Some of them are so-called “social elites.”

In addition to these social elites, there may be a few lucky people who were randomly selected.

As for others, they will only receive a call home on the eve of the total outbreak. So, even if someone becomes a corpse, most people are trapped in their homes, don’t run around, minimize the number of corpses in public places, and those who don’t become dead will survive.

Then, the authorities would routinely sound air-defence alarms daily, presumably deliberately attracting corpses, giving people a chance to escape, or to go out looking for food. This alarm is likely to be controlled by a computer and sounded at regular intervals.

Three months without interruption……I’m afraid that the place has been broken by a corpse. That’s why it stopped ringing a week ago.

“The world’s official is very smart……”

When Ye Yang thought about it, he asked Sun Chengzhong again: “Is it only the city that has done this, and so do other cities?”

“No, I don’t know.” Sun Chengzhong was a little scared and slightly shaken.

“Really?”

“Really, really I don’t know.”

“Oh……” Ye Yang’s eyes flashed a chance, and he thought, “This Sun Chengzhong is suspicious.”

He also asked: “You don’t have Internet access? There’s no information on line?”

“No, no network. No network.” Sun Chengzhong said.

“When did you start to lose contact?”

“This…… Three months ago, when the death virus started to go viral.”

“You are lying!!”

“No, no, I am not lying!!” Sun Chengzhong said.

Ye Yang stared in his eyes to see if Sun Chengzhong was telling the truth. He was staring at Sun Chengzhong and he was trembling.

Ye Yang smiled in a cold voice.

He looked to the right and found something strange.

A helmet.

It looked like a motorcycle helmet, but there was an over on the back. When he removed it, he could see that there was a power connector like a triangular plug.

Mr. Ye Yang remembered when “Werewolf” was a normal human being he went out at night and wore a helmet similar to this style.

Moreover, some houses on the roadside were smashed open the door and in some shops, you could easily find the same pattern helmet in different colour.

This made Ye Yang wondering.

There weren’t many motorcycles in the city, and the helmets of motorcycles were a little different from this one. What is this?

When he flipped the helmet with his right hand, there was no compartment in the helmet, it was a normal protective helmet. There was a layer of things separated from the helmet shell at a distance. When the helmet is impacted, this compartment can serve as a buffer.

However, inside the helmet, there is no compartment, just a layer of sponge with good water absorption. He pulled the sponge away and could see there were tiny tiny convex plastic dots inside the helmet.

“Is there any special use for this helmet?” Ye Yang asked.

Sun Chengzhong was cold and pale, staring at Ye Yang in horror.

“Why not answer?” Ye Yang asked in a cold voice.

“You, you, who are you?” Sun Chengzhong shivered away two steps, tightening at the corner of the wall.

“Why not answer?”Ye Yang asked again.

“You, you are not a person in this world? Are you an alien or have come from another world? Or else, a spy from abroad? I won’t tell you anything, you think I don’t know, it’s all in the TV show. If I answered the question, I would have no use value, and I would die. You will definitely kill me. So, I will not answer, I will say nothing.” Sun Chengzhong was terrified.

Ye Yang laughed: “You’ve seen so many novels? Have you crossed over from other worlds? Do you think such a thing might happen? And, what do I look like as a foreign spy?”

“Then…… Then why did you ask so many strange questions?”

Those questions are either common sense or the questions that the living people of the last days will all know the answer to. Is it necessary for Ye Yang to ask?

No wonder Sun Chengzhong was suspicious.
