Chapter 1787: 431: Move Forward with Burdens_4

Once the door was locked, the trapped people inside had only one way out.

Death.

To be bitten to death by zombies, and then ultimately turn into one of them.

Jack looked at the person kneeling before him, and his heart ached, but there was no other way but to seal off the door.

They had decided to do so, in order to protect everyone else.

At this very moment,

the inside was already in utter chaos. If they kept the doors open, no one would know whether the next thing to emerge would be a person or a zombie.

They couldn’t take such a great risk.

Therefore, it was imperative to lock the door and ensure the safety of the lives and property of other citizens.

“We understand everyone’s feelings, rest assured, we will do our utmost to rescue all the trapped victims.”

“Then open the door!”

“Yes, open the door!”

There were not just the rescued, but also many relatives of the trapped personnel.

The inside was in total chaos.

The outside was also in utter mayhem, and many even started to revolt, determined to break down the door to rescue their families and loved ones.

Out of desperation,

the leaders of Country Polluton had no choice but to send in armed forces to suppress the crowd.

Alnwick had just returned home

when he saw the mass messages in the social group.

An outbreak of the zombie virus had occurred in the LP Building.

Tens of thousands were trapped inside, and according to information provided by those trapped, there were already hundreds of infected.

There were also several hundred casualties from stampede incidents.

Upon seeing this message, Alnwick’s brow twitched, and he immediately opened the news page, but strangely, there was no report of the incident on the news page.

Alnwick then jumped to international websites.

There, the news was plastered all over the sites.

Alnwick immediately made a call to a friend who had also attended the press conference.

Luckily, his friend answered the phone quickly.

“Hello, Lucy, what’s the situation over there now?”

Lucy was crying, “The situation is critical right now, the doors are locked tight, we have no escape and can only wait for death! Professor Alnwick, I regret not going with you so much now, I regret mocking you! I apologize to you and I apologize to Professor Thompson! Sorry! I apologize for my ignorance! Please, find a way to save me, okay? I don’t want to die; I really don’t!”

When Alnwick had left earlier, he had informed all his friends, but they all thought Alnwick was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Zombies in this world?

But now?

Sana had really mutated!

Alnwick tried to calm himself down, while putting on his shoes, he said, “Lucy, keep calm, find a place to hide and make sure the zombies don’t find you! We won’t give up on you!”

Beep beep beep…

Just then, the call was suddenly cut off, replaced by a busy signal.

Alnwick tried calling again, but nobody answered from the other end.

Alnwick couldn’t care too much about that, he quickly put on his shoes and ran outside. His wife, seeing him about to leave right after coming back, immediately stood up and said, “Alnwick, where are you going?”

That’s when Alnwick realized his wife was still at home.

He immediately calmed down and placed his hands on his wife’s shoulders, “Darling, please listen carefully to every word I say next, go to the supermarket and buy enough food for a month, then go to the school and pick up Fiona and Aisali. After that, hide in the basement and don’t come out until you hear from me!”

Nobody knew what the ultimate outcome would be.

Surviving was of the utmost importance now.

Stella sensed something was amiss in Alnwick; she was also a scientific researcher and immediately asked, “Is there a problem with the P*D Plan?”

“Yes.” Alnwick nodded.

Stella realized the seriousness of the situation, nodded and replied, “Alright, leave the kids to me, you go and do what you need to!”

Just as Alnwick was about to turn and leave, his wife grabbed his hand, “Take care of yourself, the kids and I will wait for you at home.”

“Okay.” Alnwick nodded.

With that, Alnwick turned and left.

Stella watched her husband’s retreating figure, her eyes slightly reddening. In a moment, she immediately bucked up and went to the school to pick up the children.

After arriving at the school, she discovered that many parents who had heard the rumors had already come to pick up their children.

After picking up the children, Stella took them to the supermarket to stock up on goods, but by then, due to the news having spread, the supermarket had already been looted empty.
