The girl in question is Angelica, Derick's older sister. Not only are they related by blood, but they have also relied on each other since they were young.
Their parents abandoned them when they were very young, leaving them in the care of their grandparents. Unfortunately, their grandparents passed away due to illness when they were in their early teens, leaving them truly alone.
They ended up living in an orphanage, relying on each other for support.
As a result, Derick and Angelica have an incredibly close relationship that surpasses that of typical siblings. The abandonnt they experienced from an early age caused Derick to develop a cold and emotionless deanor, bordering on darkness and coldness.
In this society, his only family is Angelica, and it is only in her presence that he displays a hint of warmth and humanity.
In contrast to Derick's cold and emotionless personality, Angelica is also sowhat similar. She is usually aloof, rarely smiling or speaking unless it is easier to communicate with her brother.
Their upbringing has made her reluctant to easily trust others, appearing cold and distant on the surface. She only becos gentle and delicate when interacting with Derick.
"What's going on? Why the sudden urgency?" Angelica sits on a bench at the airport, looking at her phone with a hint of confusion.
Just as she is at a loss, a sudden commotion breaks out, accompanied by screams from n and won, as well as the sound of impact and explosions. It's as if chaos has engulfed the surroundings in an instant.
Surprised, Angelica stands up, her usually composed face now showing signs of change. She gazes open-mouthed at the unbelievable scene before her.
In the waiting hall, a man who was getting a drink from the self-service beverage machine suddenly convulses and grabs his wife next to him. He sinks his teeth into her neck, causing blood to flow, creating a grueso scene.
People around them panic and chaos ensues. Simultaneously, similar incidents occur in over a dozen locations within the airport hall. So human-like figures, resembling zombies, clumsily grab their bewildered counterparts and start biting them.
The airport hall instantly descends into chaos. n, won, children, and the elderly either huddle in corners trembling in fear or scream and desperately flee. So are even forced to kick away approaching zombies in sheer terror.
And not far from the hall, a Boeing 737 aircraft that was taxiing on the runway suddenly veered off course and quickly collided with another aircraft waiting to take off. A ball of fire erupted into the sky, accompanied by a loud explosion.
"Are these zombies? A virus?" Angelica covers her mouth, astonished by the scene before her. Even though she usually has a cold personality, she can't help but be terrified by what she's witnessing—it's like a hell on earth.
However, she quickly recovers. Despite her young age of only 24, Angelica is already a dual Ph.D. holder from Stanford, specializing in psychology and computer science. She has even been invited as an honorary fellow by Oxford.
Compared to her ordinary younger brother Derick, Angelica is undoubtedly an outstanding woman.
Today was supposed to be the day she returned to her ho country after an academic discussion in the United States, but she never expected to encounter such an event right after disembarking the plane.
Being exceptionally intelligent, she soon realizes that this is not a simple viral attack. It's possible that it's a global zombie virus, just like in novels or movies.
With that in mind, she needs to prepare herself. Hastily, Angelica walks towards the third floor of the airport hall, an area with fewer people and also where the airport's restaurants are located—making it a strategic position no matter what happens.
Carefully evading the attacks of the zombies, she is assailed by waves of putrid rotting slls and nauseating stench. It causes Angelica to furrow her brow involuntarily.
Fortunately, there are enough people in the airport hall, and the freshly infected zombies are still preoccupied with devouring their fellow victims. Angelica easily makes it to the second floor.
anwhile, the surrounding crowd remains in chaos, yet to recover from the outbreak of the zombie virus. Angelica furrows her brow and runs while taking out her phone to call Derick.
"I'm sorry, but the line you are trying to reach is busy. Please try again later." The phone emits a busy tone. It's understandable that with such a significant event happening, it's difficult to get a call through.
Angelica starts to get anxious. Derick is her only close relative, and with such a massive event occurring, she wants to contact him as soon as possible to prevent any accidents.
Little does Angelica know, at this mont, Derick is also trying to call her and encountering the sa busy signal on his end.
On the other side.
"Damn it!" Derick punches the nearby billboard fiercely.
He was about to get into a taxi to rush to the airport when he noticed that the driver seed to have gone mad. Emitting a strong odor of decay, the driver stumbled and opened the car door, attempting to pounce on him.
Derick sensed that sothing was wrong and imdiately retreated. Before the driver could catch up to him, a series of car accidents occurred on the road, sandwiching the bizarre driver between two vehicles, resulting in his death.
"Oh my god, what is happening?" The traffic on the road is going crazy, with a series of rear-end collisions and impacts happening right before my eyes. Flas rise into the sky, making it feel like the end of the world.
Several creatures similar to that driver have appeared on the surrounding roads, attacking and biting the people around them. Derick shivers with disgust, thinking to himself, "Are these the zombies from the novels?"
Derick quickly retreats to an open space, looking at the chaotic scene in front of him with a mix of fear and disgust. The orderly city that he knew has beco chaotic and tumultuous, with zombies and people tearing and chasing each other everywhere.
The collisions on the road have slowly co to a halt, and the sound of car horns fills the air. Most of the surviving drivers are missing limbs, a tragic sight in this human tragedy.
Gritting his teeth, Derick forces himself to stay calm and observes the surroundings. There aren't too many zombies next to him, but there are definitely quite a few. Moreover, so of them are staggering towards him.
Derick jumps over the guardrail, revealing his combat-ready hands that are accustod to brawling.
He rushes into an outdoor store, quickly scanning the area. Inside, he sees a female zombie, half-naked with a pale body, crouched over a child and biting into them.
"What the hell!" Derick curses in anger. The zombie has noticed Derick's arrival and, with bloodied mouth and outstretched arms, lets out a roar in his direction...
