The expression on everyone’s face instantly froze! Each person’s expression was very interesting. It was like they had sh*t in their mouth that they couldn’t swallow or spit out.
“Are you on your period?”
No one had expected that this question would be a matter of life and death for all the people present. Everyone blushed, and a great sense of loss made everyone feel that the question was really ridiculous.
“Stop behaving like a hoodlum! How can you ask a lady this kind of question in front of so many people?” Lin Qianqian roared at Shen Chen, and her face blushed. “You are mentally ill!”
“I’m seriously asking you this!” Shen Chen said slowly, a serious look on his face.
His serious look even made all the people wonder if Lin Qianqian’s period was really related to everyone’s safety. But then the people who came up with this thought laughed at themselves. ‘No way. What does it matter if Lin Qianqian is on her period? Does Shen Chen really think we are fools?’
Lin Qianqian was already scarlet with rage. “What makes you think I’m gonna tell you that?”
Pan Di yelled at Lin Qianqian from the side, “Do you want to see me die? Tell him. Are you on your period?”
Pan Di had never yelled at Lin Qianqian like that before. Lin Qianqian suddenly burst into tears. “Yes, yes, I am. Are you satisfied?”
“Well, what brand of sanitary napkin are you using?” Shen Chen asked again.
“Sophie, Sophie from the hotel. Night use,” Lin Qianqian said angrily.
“Take it out and let me have a look,” Shen Chen asked again with no emotion on his face. Of course, this made Lin Qianqian feel quite embarrassed. She felt that everyone was looking at her in a strange way, as if she had done something wrong.
Lin Qianqian took out a bag of sanitary napkins from the room and threw it on the ground angrily. Shen Chen picked up a piece from the bag, opened it carefully, and stared at it for a long time.
“Perv! Psycho!” With tears in her eyes, Lin Qianqian burst into convulsive sobs.
Zhang Hongtao’s face clouded a little. He couldn’t stand seeing people bully a woman like this. If Shen Chen couldn’t give a reasonable explanation, he would definitely leave the team.
When everyone fell into a strange silence, Shen Chen took a deep sigh. “Zhao Ze, what else do you want to say?”
“Sh*t. You took a bag of sanitary napkins and asked me what else I have to say? Yes, I do. You are scum. You killed Li Qi…” Zhao Ze kept swearing at Shen Chen loudly.
Shen Chen frowned and said, “Well, since you asked for it, let’s talk about what happened today.”
Shen Chen slowly stood up and said, “When we went out in the morning, we went two ways to deal with the zombies. At that time, you, Zhao Zhen, and I went to the fourth floor. The fourth floor is a Chinese restaurant, and there are more than three hundred zombies trapped in it. Do you remember?”
Shen Chen’s words caused a few gasps. ‘More than three hundred zombies? This time, it’s more than three hundred zombies! How did they survive? If that’s really the case, no wonder Li Qi was so severely wounded.’
What Shen Chen said was an irrefutable fact. Zhao Ze couldn’t deny it, so he had to nod at him. Then, he asked, “So what?”
“At that time, on the fourth floor, you alerted the zombies, and you were the first to escape. When you fled from the fire door on the fourth floor, you locked Zhao Zhen and me in it, didn’t you?”
Everyone’s eyes suddenly turned to Zhao Ze. Why had Zhao Ze done this? His intention was to kill Shen Chen and Zhao Zhen.
Zhang Xiaoya was breathing quickly and tried to calm herself. During these days, Zhao Zhen had been her umbrella that protected her from danger. She couldn’t imagine what future days would bring if Zhao Zhen died.
“I… I don’t know…” Zhao Ze bit his teeth and refused to admit that he had tried to kill Shen Chen and Zhao Zhen. “I don’t know what you are talking about…”
“You don’t want to admit it? It doesn’t matter. I will help you remember.” Shen Chen didn’t care about Zhao Ze’s little tricks. Instead, he came to sit in front of Zhao Ze. Everyone noticed Shen Chen’s threatening look at Zhao Ze!
Shen Chen gave a sneer and said, “After that, Zhao Zhen and I killed the zombies and fled from the fourth floor, only to find Guo Yuan looking for us alone on the third floor. Guo Yuan told us that you ran away to the third floor and met them. You told Guo Yuan that we were trapped on the fourth floor, but you took them to look for us at another fire stairs, didn’t you?”
“Yes! I had to find someone to help you because you were trapped on the fourth floor. I didn’t do anything wrong,” Zhao Ze shouted, and tried to put on an innocent look.
Shen Chen sneered. “You knew we weren’t trapped in the fire stairs at the east side, but you still took them to those stairs. How do you explain this?” Seeing that Zhao Ze was going to find excuses for himself, Shen Chen continued, “In fact, you never wanted to save us. And you didn’t take Pan Di to the fourth floor, because you knew there were too many zombies on the fourth floor. Even if you took both of them to the fourth floor, and even if they were eaten by the zombies, you might not be able to leave there safely in time.”
All of sudden, the others finally figured out what had happened. But if Zhao Ze didn’t take them to the fourth floor, where did they go? What made Li Qi die?
Everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity and puzzlement, watching Shen Chen suddenly stand up. His feet were getting close to Zhao Ze.
“So you took them to different stairs. And when the others were looking for me, you knocked out Pan Di and cut Li Qi down. Then, you left them in the nearest room to you.”
“Bullsh*t! You are lying!” Zhao Ze was trembling. He knew that Shen Chen knew all that had happened. He was on the verge of collapse!
“Don’t worry. Listen to me.” Shen Chen walked slowly to Zhao Ze and said calmly, “Then you hid in the nearby room, where you heard Guo Zhen find us. And you found out that we were not locked in the fourth floor as you thought. This scared you because according to your plan, we should have been dead.”
Shen Chen said, “But what Guo Zhen said to us made you come up with a new plan! At that time, I really thought that you took them to the fourth floor. I thought you were going to kill them, so I wanted to save them. And this gave you a chance to carry out your new plot!”
Zhao Ze’s mouth was twitching in an uncontrollable way. The muscles on his face were twitching violently, which looked extremely frightening.
By this time, everyone believed what Shen Chen said. After all, they didn’t believe that Shen Chen could make up such a flawless lie! Their eyes, looking at Zhao Ze, turned cold, especially Zhang Hongtao’s.
Shen Chen said slowly, recalling the horrible scene in the corridor, “Although I tried my best, I failed to catch up with you. When I got to the fourth floor, I found that Pan Di and Li Qi were not among the more than three hundred zombies. I even thought that you were mistaken at that time. You didn’t bring them up there. But when I was about to leave, the fire door was locked again. I was locked in the Chinese restaurant once again with more than three hundred zombies in it. This time, I couldn’t open the fire door!”
