Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Chapter 285: Trapped

Dilraba looked expectantly at Tong Liya. Seeing Tong Liya's gaze gradually firming, she sighed in disappointment and stopped insisting.

"Fine! Since you don't want to go with me, then Gulnazar and I will go!" Saying this, Dilraba tidied up, opened the window, tugged on the rope outside to ensure it was secure. Then, carefully standing on the window, she tried to climb up using the rope.

Gulnazar followed closely behind, and the two of them laboriously climbed towards the rooftop.

Just as the two had crawled out of the window, Lin Zhiling coldly smiled, walked to the door of the rest area, and knocked.

"What are you doing?" Tong Liya, seeing Lin Zhiling knocking on the door, nervously stepped forward, grabbing Lin Zhiling and angrily questioned.

"Overestimating oneself!" Lin Zhiling sneered, "Dilraba is truly overestimating herself and not knowing the severity of the situation! Going out like this, they're just heading for a dead end! I'm trying to save them!"

"Come in!" A man's voice came from inside. Lin Zhiling directly shook off Tong Liya's hand, opened the door, and walked in, twisting her body with an extremely flattering demeanor.

Soon, Lin Zhiling emerged from inside, holding five cans of beef, looking at Tong Liya with a triumphant smile. "See that? This is the best choice to survive!"

...

At this moment, Dilraba and Gulnazar had successfully climbed to the rooftop. Glancing around, outside the grand theater, zombies were wandering everywhere!

"Let's go over and check the situation there first!" Dilraba and Gulnazar cautiously crawled towards the direction of the riverside park.

Soon, the two of them saw the situation at the riverside park.

In the riverside park, there were scattered zombies wandering around, but most of them had gathered at the back entrance, densely packed together, emitting noisy cries. At the small harbor in the riverside park, there were more than a dozen yachts parked. Some yachts had zombies wandering on them, but there were also several yachts without any zombies.

"How do we get over there?" Gulnazar looked at the few zombies wandering in the riverside park, fear evident in her voice. She was starting to regret it now, caught between going forward and going back, her complexion turning somewhat pale.

On the other hand, Dilraba remained resolute, observing the surroundings and beginning to think. From a young age, her mother had always trained her to think independently. When faced with difficulties, she would instinctively start using her brain, utilizing available tools and the environment to find effective solutions, rather than succumbing to fear like other women.

Soon, she found a solution! There was a corridor in the riverside park that led directly to the harbor. By descending from the rooftop using a rope, they could reach the top of that corridor directly.

This way, they could perfectly avoid the zombies, reaching the harbor directly from the top of the corridor.

"Do you see that? The corridor!" Dilraba excitedly pointed at the corridor. She felt that her luck was exceptionally good. If they followed this plan to reach the yachts, they could completely avoid the zombies and reach the yachts without much danger. At most, there might be some risk in descending from the corridor to the yachts, but overall, it would be a smooth journey.

Moreover, there were very few zombies on the harbor, just a few wandering around. Dilraba counted and found at most four or five.

Due to the presence of barriers, the zombies outside the harbor couldn't get in at once.

"That's great! Let's quickly go back and tell them!" Gulnazar also became excited, her eyes shining with hope as she spoke enthusiastically.

"Good! You stay here; I'll go down and tell them!" Dilraba turned excitedly, but she was stunned by the scene in front of her.

She saw Lin Zhiling, Yang Ying, and Liu Tao unexpectedly appearing on the rooftop!

"Sister Ling... how did you guys get up here?"

Lin Zhiling gave a charming smile, not answering Dilraba's question. Instead, she and the other two started untying the ropes on their own.

"What are you doing? Lin Zhiling! What are you trying to do?! Are you crazy? Without these ropes, how are we going to get down!!"

Dilraba, terrified, looked at Lin Zhiling and the others, screaming in shock. While yelling, she desperately crawled towards Lin Zhiling and the others.

However, it was too late; the ropes were untied and slid straight down.

"Lin Zhiling! What do you mean? I kindly wanted to help you guys! Why would you do this?"

"You don't want to leave, don't harm me! Where did I provoke you?"

Dilraba clenched her fists, staring angrily at Lin Zhiling and the others, her breathing becoming rapid. She couldn't understand why Lin Zhiling and the others would do this. She had sincerely wanted to escape with them, yet they intentionally harmed her. Even if they didn't want to go, they could have simply abstained. Why did they have to harm her in this way?

"Humph! Can't figure it out? Can't understand? Sis is saving you!" Liu Tao sneered, saying, "Do you think escaping from here means freedom? Safety? Let me tell you, getting out is just the beginning of your hardship!

Hot Ba, use your brain and think! Where is there a gathering place without men? We, as women and former stars from the pre-apocalyptic era, how do you think those men will treat us? Can't you figure it out?"

"What will happen to me in the future is none of your business! Even if I die, it has nothing to do with you! But why do you want to harm me?" Dilraba, filled with hatred for the three women in front of her, gritted her teeth. She wanted to confront them, but she knew she wasn't their match.

"Stop arguing! We are now trapped on the rooftop! What do we do? There's nothing here, and it's impossible for us to go back now!" Gulnazar, crawling over, frowned, her face pale. She said, "Even if you don't want to go with us, there's no need to cut off everyone's retreat, right? Now we're stuck here, and we can only wait to die!"

Dilraba looked down; the height from the rooftop to the ground was about twenty meters. Jumping down directly, aside from the risk of falling to death, she would likely be bitten alive by zombies if she survived. As for the corridor on the side of the riverside park, although it wasn't as high, it still had a slope and tilted tiles.

Jumping down directly, one could easily slide and fall to the ground.

Most likely, it would end in death.

"You're the ones trapped here, not us," Yang Ying said coldly. Following that, Lin Zhiling took out bottled water and some food from her backpack, distributing it to the other two and then began to eat with relish.
