The end of the world: zombies are the end

"Successful check in!"

The slightly harsh mechanical sound echoed in the corridor. When the time came, Nan Yi closed the window of the office. After opening and locking the door, he checked it several times before leaving slowly.

The house rented by the company was relatively old. The incandescent lights in the corridor were flashing and the emergency green lights at the corners were on. Nan Yi glanced at it and walked over quickly. There was silence all around.

There are only two companies on this floor. In addition to theirs, there is another one that seems to be engaged in loans. During the day, it looks like an ancient academy. The sound of Lang Lang's reading can be heard constantly. In the evening, he gets off work on time.

He walked for a few minutes and took the subway twice before returning to the rental house where he rented. Nanyi rented a six-story apartment in a relatively old-fashioned community. He lived on the top floor. There was no elevator. He walked around the stairs. Go upstairs in a circle, and next to the stairs are the doors of each house.

It is said that this apartment was built 20 years ago. The walls on both sides are slightly yellowed. The railings of the stairs are also made of simple steel pipes with a thin layer of green paint. It seems that I heard that the landlord is waiting for demolition. Mostly true.

"Nine, ten, eleven..."

This is Nan Yi's habit, like an obsessive-compulsive disorder. He likes to count the steps when going up stairs, although they are the same every time, and even he himself doesn't know what effect this has.

Back home, Nan Yi simply drank some water, then went to the bedroom to change into a set of vests, shorts and sneakers, put on his sports watch, locked the door and went downstairs.

"Hu... hu... hu..."

This is Nan Yi's habit. Even if he doesn't make money, he still needs to take good care of his body, so he exercises every day. He runs for an hour and does [-] push-ups. He knows the gym equipment very well, even though he sits in the office every day. , but he has a well-proportioned figure.

The place where he exercises is in the community next door. The housing price is more than double that of the community where he rents. It is considered mid-range in a coastal city. Fortunately, the developer of the community next door still has some conscience. The community has its own gym with all kinds of sports equipment. , when I rented on the top floor, I was at a disadvantage. The landlord happened to have several houses here, and with the accompanying rental benefits, he is now a frequent visitor here every day.

"Yeah, Xiao Yi, you still come to exercise at nine o'clock. You are very patient. I thought you wouldn't come today."

Nan Yi heard the sound and looked over. The person speaking was a girl with a sweet voice and a delicate face. She had a simple ponytail. She was wearing a women's sports vest and black yoga shorts. She held a five kilogram dumbbell in each hand. She had a well-proportioned and slender figure. , extremely attractive.

"I worked overtime today, but I still need to exercise."

Nan Yi said while playing with the fitness equipment and looking at the girl in front of him.

The girl's name is Lin Xin, she is in her twenties and is a local. Her parents left her a dozen apartments and then traveled around the world with her little sister.

When he first learned about it, he was shocked. If he was so rich, he could only think about it.

The two of them greeted each other without any unnecessary chit-chat. They were each practicing their own thing. It was past nine o'clock, and there was no one else in the gym except them.

After bench press, flat dumbbell, and deadlift, after several events, Nan Yi felt hot all over, sweating like a stream, and his upper body was almost soaked. He took the gym towel and rubbed his face. He looked at the watch and it showed that it was past ten o'clock. Ready to go back.

"Xiao Yi, why don't you join me as a trainer in my gym? You have such a good figure."

Lin Xin changed into a clean white sportswear and stood aside, drinking a bottle of sports drink in her hand, and handed him a bottle as she spoke.

"Cuckoo..."

Nan Yi was not polite. They had known each other for nearly two years. They had the same interests and would chat more often. Lin Xin loved fitness and opened her own gym nearby. She drank more than half a bottle of drink in two gulps, which made him feel hot. My body has relaxed a lot.

"I'm not good at being a coach. Nowadays coaches need to be eloquent and have high emotional intelligence. The first thing is difficult for me."

"Hahaha, I think you can do it. With a figure like yours, without any tops on, I don't know how many girls in my gym can charm you."

Lin Xin looked at the determined man in front of her and joked with a smile:

"Besides, you can't make much money from working. Just work as a model for me. I don't need you to sell classes or anything like that."

"Forget it, the foreign trade situation this year is okay and stable for the time being. But if you are short of people on the weekend, I can help you for free."

Nan Yi thought for a moment, but still rejected her proposal. He couldn't change his personality even if he wanted to, and he couldn't handle too many things. But after all, they were friends, so he was still polite.

"That's okay, it's settled. If I make an appointment another day, you can't refuse."

Lin Xin said with a sly expression on her face after hearing this, and said with a smile.

"I'll keep my word."

Nan Yi seldom made promises. His parents told him since he was a child that he should be upright and honest. When he grew up and entered the society, although his ideas have deviated, he still stick to the bottom line in his heart.

"Then it's settled, let's go."

When Lin Xin saw this, she didn't say much, waved her hands and prepared to turn around and leave.

Nan Yi seemed to have thought of something and quickly said: "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Lin Xin stopped when she heard his words, turned around and looked at him with some confusion.

"Huh? What's the matter."

"It's nothing serious. It's just that there are a lot of virus infections circulating on the Internet recently. You should pay more attention to it and wear a mask or something to protect yourself."

Lin Xin suddenly understood, nodded and said:

"What did I think? I know this. Recently, several members of our gym have not come for many days because of this. No one answered the call. There are no reports on the news. It shouldn't be serious."

"It's better to pay more attention. No matter how good your health is, you may not be able to rely on the virus."

Seeing Lin Xin's indifferent expression, he gave another urgent instruction.

"Thanks, you too, don't be sick, and come to my gym to be the top dog another day."

Lin Xin nodded, smiled and teased him again: "Okay, you should go back quickly, bye."

Nan Yi drank the drink in his hand in a few sips, hung up his towel, and the two of them left the gym together and walked home separately.

In fact, he had seen news about the virus more than half a month ago, but at that time the news said it was just like the flu, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Today, his mother called him to explain, so she was naturally more concerned about it. After the phone call, he searched on his mobile phone, but he didn't see any news. In addition, the piercing siren in the evening seemed to indicate something, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Nan Yi thought about it and found that he could only do some protection. He was just an ordinary person. He couldn't quit his job and hide at home just because there was news about a cold-like virus. It was simply unrealistic.

Even if the city was closed for influenza before, it still got through.

After thinking about it, he returned home, washed briefly, and lay down on the small bed.

On a midsummer night on the top floor, even if the windows were opened to the maximum, the room was stuffy and stuffy. Nan Yi felt as if something was wrong and couldn't sleep.

Thinking of the viral flu that his mother told him about in the evening, he felt that he should find a mask and wear it to work tomorrow.

Nan Yi also often thinks back to what kind of life he would have been like now if he had chosen to be an engineer or programmer. Even if he could get a teacher's certificate and become a teacher, he would be much more comfortable.

People are like this. Looking back on the past, they always want to change a certain node. In fact, if you stand at the end of life and look back on the past, you will find that a person's life is a destined path.

"what--"

The ear-piercing screams pierced the night sky, causing Nan Yi, who was swimming in the spiritual world, to wake up instantly.

"Beep beep..."

Nan Yi stood up in a hurry, and when he came to the window with his slippers on, there was already a chaos of sirens and screams downstairs.

"boom--"
