Chapter 34: You Might Have Misunderstood the Beautiful Professor
The sunroof of the pickup truck slowly opened, and a man wearing a police helmet emerged from inside.
The man used binoculars to scan the school's surroundings, then said a few words to the people in the car before getting back in.
The modified pickup and the modified off-road vehicle turned around and arrogantly drove away.
Xiao Yi controlled the Three-Eyed Crow and followed the two modified vehicles for a while.
Just as the Three-Eyed Crow's detection range reached its limit, the two vehicles stopped in front of a convenience store. Five men holding machetes and one man holding a rifle got out of the car. They killed several rushing zombies as easily as chopping melons and slicing vegetables.
Then, the man with the rifle stood guard while the other five were responsible for carrying things out of the convenience store.
The five men's coordination was extremely skillful, and they quickly finished carrying what they wanted. They turned and got back into the modified vehicles, driving away once again.
Watching the dust and sand kicked up by the two departing modified vehicles, Xiao Yi couldn't help but frown slightly.
These people seemed very organized, and they appeared to be very interested in the inside of the school.
But for some unknown reason, they ultimately didn't come in.
However, what Xiao Yi was most concerned about wasn't this, but the fact that these people actually had a rifle!
Although the man never fired, the deterrent power of the rifle was immense.
Even the current Xiao Yi was very wary of an opponent armed with a rifle.
No matter how fast his blade was, it couldn't be faster than a rifle's bullet.
If he were to encounter this group, Xiao Yi wasn't confident he could defeat them.
Xiao Yi felt very uneasy about such an unstable factor.
"I must find a way to eliminate this group and get that rifle!"
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes.
Xiao Yi continued to control the Three-Eyed Crow to search the area around the school.
Soon, he saw a few C-class burly zombies. These burly zombies were frantically ramming an iron fence gate, seemingly attracted by something.
Controlling the Three-Eyed Crow to get a little closer, Xiao Yi discovered that not far from the iron fence gate being rammed by the burly zombies was a shopping mall, and on the outer wall of the mall, several people were actually climbing up using ropes.
Because the mall building wasn't very tall, only about seven or eight meters high, and it had been blocked by a nearby building earlier, Xiao Yi hadn't seen it.
These people had large bags of food and water on their backs; it was obvious they had carried them out from the mall.
Following the rope upwards, Xiao Yi actually discovered a settlement on the rooftop!
Although the mall building wasn't tall, it was very wide.
At this moment, on the mall's rooftop, there were actually many colorful tents.
Many men and women were walking back and forth on the rooftop. Xiao Yi roughly counted them and found there were actually over thirty people.
This was a survivor's settlement!
And because it was on the mall's rooftop, these people didn't lack for food or water.
They were living quite comfortably.
Just as Xiao Yi was about to get closer to see the internal situation of the settlement, he heard a shout from not far away.
Xiao Yi refocused his attention and turned his head towards the source of the sound.
It was actually coming from the direction of the teachers' dormitory!
After City of Sin's upgrade, its area had doubled, so the northernmost point of City of Sin now bordered the girls' dormitory.
The position where Xiao Yi was standing was right on the northernmost wall of City of Sin.
So, he could just hear the shouts from the teachers' dormitory.
"Master! Listen quickly! It sounds like the beautiful professor from the economics department!"
The five women who were starting a fire to cook and research cuisine also noticed the cry for help. Although the girls' dormitory blocked their view, making it impossible to see the situation at the teachers' dormitory, just by listening to the voice, Li Wanning and the others guessed it was the beautiful professor from the economics department.
"That woman is actually still alive?" Shen Tingting said with a look of disdain.
"Listening to the voice, it really does sound like Professor Lu Yurou! Is she crying for help?! We should hurry and save her!" Tang Ningning pushed her glasses and said excitedly.
Lu Yurou was her idol.
"Save her? What for? You don't know, she was actually in the same room as that old man, the Vice President!" Shen Tingting said with great contempt. "Why save someone like that? Disgusting!"
"You mean Vice President Lu? The one who looks very fierce?" Tang Jingyan asked curiously.
"Yes! That old man, he's fierce all day long, as if everyone owed him millions. I never thought Lu Yurou would actually get together with this old man! That old man could be her father!" Shen Tingting said, sticking out her tongue.
"Vice President Lu is her father, you know. Although Professor Lu Yurou never talks about it, I know because my father is a director on the board of trustees, and my dad told me about it."
Tang Jingyan said with a smile, "You've all misunderstood Professor Yurou. She's a good woman, and she's very stubborn. She's already 33 and still unwilling to find a boyfriend, which has made Vice President Lu furious."
