Suddenly, five figures appeared diagonally across from a hospital.
This corner was free of zombies and relatively safe.
The streets on both sides were empty, with only a few zombies wandering about.
However, there were about twenty zombies in front of the hospital across from them.
At this moment, the hospital doors were wide open.
There were blackened bloodstains everywhere - on the security booth, the walls by the entrance, and on the ground.
There were also some rotting, moldy limbs and various pieces of scattered garbage.
The scene looked extremely desolate and ruined.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at the large characters on the hospital gate and clicked her tongue slightly.
"Mu Yang, is the hospital you mentioned a psychiatric hospital?"
Mu Yang scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed.
"I didn't pay much attention before. I only passed by here once and it looked like a hospital."
The corner of Yun Xiaoxiao's lips twitched.
From the outside, the psychiatric hospital didn't look much different from a regular hospital.
"Is a psychiatric hospital not okay?"
"It's fine, any hospital will do."
Perhaps there would be fewer zombies in a psychiatric hospital compared to a regular one?
After preparing themselves, the five people and the scorpion quickly charged forward.
The zombies on the other side heard the commotion and suddenly turned around, their faces horrifically distorted.
They frantically lunged towards the group.
The five people and the scorpion had overwhelming combat power, and they quickly dealt with all twenty-something zombies.
But this was just the appetizer.
The main force of psychiatric zombies was arriving in succession.
Zombies in patient gowns came pouring out like floodwaters from all directions of the hospital.
Of course, there were also many doctors and nurses in white coats, as well as security guards and normally dressed people.
The group quickly entered the hospital, closed the main door behind them, and lined up to start firing their submachine guns.
When they heard movement behind them, Nie Yizhou and Xiao Feng immediately turned and aimed their guns at the outside of the door.
This was the plan they had discussed beforehand - some would clear the way while others covered the rear.
This hospital was different from other large general hospitals.
Other hospitals might have several entrances, but this one only had a single entry point.
At the entrance, besides a large rectangular hospital sign, there were just automatic doors and a security booth.
Neither the doors nor the hospital sign were very high, so it was quite possible for zombies to climb over from outside.
Therefore, guarding the entrance was crucial.
With someone taking care of potential threats from behind, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others could engage in an unbridled killing spree.
Yun Xiaoxiao was using a short-sword submachine gun with the least recoil.
Like Lu Chen, she was quick and accurate, never missing a shot.
Although Mu Yang couldn't match the two of them, he regularly practiced at shooting ranges, so his combat skills were formidable as well.
Little Cutie was even more impressive, raising its sharp tail stinger and striking with pinpoint accuracy.
The five people and the scorpion worked together seamlessly, and in no time, swathes of zombies had fallen.
They waited for a while, and seeing no more zombies emerging, Yun Xiaoxiao, Lu Chen, and Mu Yang headed straight for the outpatient hall in front of them, while Nie Yizhou and Xiao Feng continued to guard the entrance.
Unsurprisingly, this area was equally bloody and chaotic.
As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao and the others entered, two bloody handprints suddenly appeared on the glass of a nearby registration window.
A bald head, its scalp bitten off and face covered in blood, suddenly popped up.
It frantically beat on the glass, fixing them with its white eyes filled with black blood vessels.
The glass rattled loudly from the impacts, but its quality seemed good.
So far, no cracks had appeared.
The question was, which was harder - the glass or a bullet?
Curious, Yun Xiaoxiao raised her gun and fired directly.
"Bang!"
The bullet pierced the glass and shot straight into the zombie's head!
The entire window didn't shatter, leaving only a small hole.
Afterwards, Lu Chen and Mu Yang formed one team, while Yun Xiaoxiao and Little Cutie formed another. They split up to sweep the left and right sides simultaneously.
Yun Xiaoxiao gently pushed open a partially closed consultation room door, with Little Cutie poised for action beside her.
But the room was empty, with papers from the desk scattered on the floor, indicating that whoever had been inside must have rushed out in a hurry.
Next, she went to the second consultation room, which was a much more gruesome sight.
There was a zombie corpse that had been eaten away until only the head and bones remained.
Although the body was gone, its eyes still hadn't fully closed.
The ashen face of the zombie weakly opened and closed its mouth, demonstrating the tenacity of life.
"I can't spare any meat, but I'll give you a bullet instead."
Yun Xiaoxiao generously pulled the trigger.
Finally, this zombie head could rest.
Soon, Yun Xiaoxiao reached the last consultation room on this side.
The door was wide open, and inside was a male zombie in a white coat, tilting its head to look at a brain diagram hanging on the wall.
Yun Xiaoxiao found it quite peculiar that this zombie seemed so studious.
However, this didn't mean it wouldn't attack humans.
As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao approached, the zombie's head turned 90 degrees, staring directly at her.
In the next second, it raised the syringe in its hand and lunged at her with a roar.
Little Cutie leaped up, its sharp stinger striking like a fierce sword.
The zombie's howl was immediately cut short.
After dealing with the zombies on this side, Yun Xiaoxiao regrouped with Lu Chen and the others to continue upstairs.
The entire six-story building didn't have many zombies, nor were there any survivors.
Perhaps they had escaped, or due to the timing of the zombie outbreak, some patients hadn't arrived for their appointments yet, and some doctors hadn't made it to work.
This area seemed relatively safe, so after securing the doors, they moved to the adjacent inpatient department.
Unlike the outpatient hall, entering the inpatient department immediately gave off an eerie feeling.
Corridors extended on both sides of the nurses' station.
Due to their length, the middle section of the corridors appeared somewhat dark.
It felt as if something filthy could run out at any moment.
There was no one at the first-floor nurses' station, and no zombies in the corridors.
It was empty and very quiet.
But in this silence, occasional zombie howls and the 'bang bang' of doors being hit could be heard.
This made the already creepy atmosphere even more chilling.
According to the labels on the elevator doors, the higher the floor, the more severe the mental illness of the patients.
The first floor was only for patients with the mildest symptoms.
Yun Xiaoxiao and the others still split into two groups, one on the left and one on the right.
Yun Xiaoxiao took the right side again.
Most of the doors on the first floor were either open or slightly ajar. The patients here had either been torn apart, turned into zombies, or had escaped.
Only two room doors were tightly closed.
When Yun Xiaoxiao opened the first door, she discovered that although there were three beds inside, only one girl had been living there.
She was curled up under the bed against the wall, her body already rotting and stinking.
She hadn't been bitten or turned into a zombie, likely having starved to death.
From the patient information at the bedside, Yun Xiaoxiao learned that she was only 17 years old, and her condition was autism.
A ripple of emotion passed through Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes.
She silently closed the door and went to the other tightly closed door.
After picking the lock with a wire, she gently pushed inward.
However, she found that something was blocking the door, preventing it from opening.
Yun Xiaoxiao: ......
Hey, she wasn't going to give up that easily!
She raised her small foot and gave the door a hard kick...
