117 3.06.22 – Showdown – Downfall of Humanity
Bing Shi noticed that most of the combat soldiers were as numb and cold as Yi Zen. Serving the country, they went through hell. In war, they saw and committed things that were too horrible to talk about. Accustomed to losing good friends, loyal friends, which were even closer to them than family members, they got over it and continued with their lives.
[“Gosh, I want to ask about so many things, but I can’t.”]
Kuro, who held a box of tissues before another soldier raised its head towards Bing Shi.
[Why?]
[“Because I’m not a soldier like them.”]
Kuro nodded but understood nothing.
A soldier who watched the confused snake holding a wet tissue box, chuckled at its cuteness, “Do you understand human speech?”
Seeing its nod, he turned towards Bing Shi, “Can I pet him?”
Bing Shi nodded, “You can, but clean your hands first.”
.....
“...” The soldier covered in bandages thought that those tissues were for the crying soldiers. After cleaning his hands, he patted Kuro’s head while a flash of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes, “Are we going to do experiments on those beings?”
Bing Shi raised her eyebrows as she looked at the ferocious yet calm man, who seemed to have no family to cry for, “What’s your name and role in a team?”
“Ban, a combat medic.”
“Mr. Ban, shouldn’t you be asking your leaders instead of me?” she asked silently.
“What’s the difference? In the end, they’ll still ask for your opinion.”
Bing Shi smiled knowingly, “True. Well, it depends on the type of experiment you want to do.”
[“Kuro, If I asked him, who will he listen to in the future, me or Yi Zen, what do you think his answer would be?”]
[You?]
[“Hmm...”]

Before Ren Han’s tent, his party watched how the busy girl came their way, together with Kuro.
Tedy, the ex-team leader, a man with a bushy beard, whispered to his colleagues, “Man, is she going to hand us some tissues too?”
Pony, the youngest member with his hair tied up, asked nervously, “Should I ask for an autograph?” Going through his pockets, he panicked, “Someone, hurry, lend me a pen!”
Their anticipation was gone as soon as Bing Shi changed her route. She walked towards the desk in front of her tent. Sometimes, there would be soldiers asking for information regarding zombies or the situation in other parts of the world.
Pony looked at Ren Han, who was on his laptop, accusingly, “Didn’t you say she is your grandma? What grandma ignores her grandson?!”
Ren Han sent some drones to the city, surveying the situation; he spoke out casually, “My grandma.”
“...” Everyone snickered at the silent Pony.

[“Kuro, when are you going to leave?”]
Bing Shi checked her schedule on her tablet.
[Fu Lian should leave her space in a week, to visit the military base.]
[“So in a week? If I send Yi Zen sooner, will fate bring them together?”]
[I’m not sure.]
[“Then... Let’s see what will happen if I send Yi Zen sooner.”]
Their conversation was interrupted by a soldier nicknamed Qua Tao, a young man with a short haircut, “Miss Bing Shi, there is a meeting to discuss our next actions.”
Bing Shi lifted her gaze to look at the man, who survived the previous apocalypse, thinking about how the men around the story were all pretty handsome. “Oh, go ahead. No need to inform me.”
“General Yi Zen is asking for your presence.” Qua Tao’s face twitched; wasn’t his message clear enough?
“Are you sure?” Bing Shi stood up and patted her black pants, “I’m only a lowly civilian who knows nothing about strategies.”
“...” Qua Tao glanced at the person who followed after him in doubt. ‘Who would believe that!?’
Bing Shi pointed with her thumb at Ren Han, “What about him, can he come too? His brain will come in handy. His personality is s bit difficult, but as long as you give him enough respect, it should be fine.”
Tao nodded, “General Yi Zen asked for officer Ren Han too.”
As the one who found Ma Jie, Ren Han became pretty famous. He brought fear to the nearby gangs during the riots, saving lots of innocent lives in the process. The interesting part was; Ren Han didn’t need a spotter to make a successful kill.
Standing before Ren Han’s tent, Bing Shi waved at the bickering men. Noticing her arrival, they greeted her back, except Ren Han, who fully ignored her existence.
‘This brat...’
Inside a tent, Bing Shi, Yi Zen, Ren Han, with eighteen team leaders, started the meeting. Sitting behind a long table, everyone’s gaze was on a white screen that showed the situation in city C.
Hundreds of zombies lured around the street; in hunger, saliva dripped from their mouths while their fists slammed against the doors of the wooden apartments, impatiently.
Yi Zen was the first to ask, “How many are there in nearby cities?”
Before Bing Shi could open her mouth, a deep voice outpaced her.
“Around two hundred thousand in city E. One hundred thousand in city K. Thirty thousand in city C and the number is increasing by every fucking minute.”
‘This brat is stealing my spotlight!’
Bing Shi continued, “For small towns with a population around twenty thousand, there are only a thousand of them. On the opposite side, cities with a population of more than a few million, there are hundreds of thousands of zombies. As for capital cities, they are doomed, the sheer number of zombies is inhumanly high. Without me, the number would be twice as big, hehe.”
‘Someone praise me ??’
*Silence*
‘ ~ Good job Bing Shi!’
‘ ~ Bing Shi, you are the best!’
“Officer Ren Han, General Yi Zen is asking for your assistance,” informed Qua Tao.
Ren Han stood up and followed after Qua Tao silently.
Startled by the high amount of zombies, the logistic squad leader began to list their munition which wouldn’t be enough to lure in all the zombies from nearby cities.
