But he said nothing, turning to climb into the tour bus, moving awkwardly, then sitting down in the driver’s seat, burying his face in his hands. Zhou Rong cupped his hands around his mouth like a megaphone: “Wait—for—me—to—pick—you—up—!” Then he waved forcefully, watching the tour bus slowly start and disappear behind the elevated bridge. Chun Cao screamed from another car: “Brother Rong! If you don’t leave now, I can’t hold back Yan Hao!” The city transformed into a massive tomb between heaven and earth, the tour bus descending from the elevated bridge, heading toward the city center. In the opposite direction, at the junction of towns, two armored vehicles sped toward the airport, zombies hovering outside the helicopter landing pad stirring at the sound, but assault rifles and mortars protruded from the car windows, mercilessly exploding among the zombies, smoke billowing. Boom— The two armored vehicles smashed through the road barriers, crushing the wire fence, creating ruins of the wall in the vibration, rumbling onto the concrete runway outside the landing pad. Many zombies were crushed into two long bloody trails behind the vehicles, and soon more zombies with broken arms and legs shakily stood up, howling and following the armored vehicles through the wall.
“Yan Hao team, prepare!” Zhou Rong’s voice came through the vehicle’s speaker: “Confirm target helicopter, I’ll drive with Yan Hao for cover, Ding Shi and Chun Cao prepare to board! Quick!”
In front of the office building, a row of helicopters in various colors was scattered on the grass. Two armored vehicles charged forward, arriving at the lawn simultaneously, spinning in perfect unison, the tail swing angles exactly matching. Swish—the grass flew up from the outer rear wheels, the fan-shaped arc perfectly parallel in midair.
“How are you two so in sync! What’s your relationship!” Chun Cao shouted, opening the sunroof and climbing onto the roof, beginning to pry open the helicopter door in front of her: “I’m going to tell on you, the new mom will be angry!”
Yan Hao: “Shut up! This is how military driving school teaches! Understand standardized movements!”
A moment of silence around them, then Zhou Rong bit his tongue hard. Ding Shi: “…New mom?” Chun Cao: “Who’s the old mom?” Yan Hao: “…?!”
