"Smack!" Lin Fan rushed up to the first floor and quickly closed the door of the pedestrian corridor. However, this Municipal People's Hospital was, after all, a top-tier Class-A hospital and the largest hospital in the city. There were a total of three pedestrian staircases leading to the basement in all directions.

"Huh? What are you doing?" A man's voice sounded behind Lin Fan. Lin Fan quickly turned around and saw a middle-aged man with an injured arm. Needless to say, this man was probably a patient in the hospital who was bored in the middle of the night and happened to walk here by accident.

Lin Fan's face darkened. There was no time to explain at the moment. Lin Fan quickly waved his right hand, urgently needing his assistance at this moment.

"Quick, quick! Go to the front and close the door to the basement entrance. Hurry up!"

"What? Why should I close the door? And I don't even know how to get to the basement." The man was curious when he saw Lin Fan's anxious look. He scratched his head and said with a puzzled expression.

"Alas, go and notify the patients in the inpatient department. The hospital is in a critical situation tonight and all of them need to be transferred to another hospital for treatment. Tell them to get up quickly and leave the hospital." Lin Fan sighed. In his heart, he had to admit that he was the one who knew the entrances to all parts of the hospital best. Asking a patient for help was just like seeking medical treatment blindly when sick, which was unreliable.

"Hey, I say, young man, who on earth are you? Sneaking around in the hospital in the middle of the night. Aren't you a thief?" The middle-aged man ignored Lin Fan's words and just looked at Lin Fan curiously. When he noticed that Lin Fan was barefoot and rushed towards him with thudding footsteps, he quickly reached out his right hand and caught Lin Fan.

Lin Fan turned his wrist, exerted a sudden downward force with his hand, and immediately broke free from the middle-aged man's grip. "Ouch!" The middle-aged man was thrown to the ground by Lin Fan.

The middle-aged man stood up angrily and immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed the three numbers 110: "Hello? Is this the police station? I'm in the lobby on the first floor of the Municipal People's Hospital and I found a thief..."

Lin Fan ran for a while and was out of breath. Finally, he tightly closed the three doors and then crouched on the ground, gasping for breath. He also took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed 110.

"Hello? Is this the police station? I'm currently in the lobby on the first floor of the Municipal People's Hospital. There's an emergency situation at the Municipal People's Hospital and we need a lot of police officers to come and assist."

"Okay. We've already received an alarm call before and have dispatched a group of police officers. They're already driving towards the Municipal People's Hospital."

Lin Fan hung up the phone and muttered to himself, "Who called the police? Could the police predict it in advance?"

"Lin Fan, what are you doing there? Come here quickly. I've reserved some midnight snack for you."

Lin Fan looked up and saw Zhang Meng shouting loudly at him from the door of the duty room at the front desk entrance. Lin Fan responded and suddenly remembered that there was an emergency evacuation alarm device in the duty room before.

"Hey, where's the emergency evacuation alarm device in the hospital? Could you tell me?" Lin Fan rushed into the duty room in a flustered manner, looked around with his eyes, and quickly took in the whole scene of the duty room. He didn't see any evacuation alarm device in the room.

Although he didn't find the device, he found a pair of sports shoes in the corner. No matter whose they were, Lin Fan walked over and put them on. After putting them on, he moved his feet a bit and found that they fit just right.

"What are you doing? Why are you sweating so much? And you're still barefoot. The alarm device is broken today and has been taken for repair." Zhang Meng looked up and was surprised to see Lin Fan's hasty appearance, with her mouth wide open.

"Damn it! I can't believe I'm so unlucky. I really admire myself." Lin Fan couldn't help slapping his forehead when he heard that the device was broken, with a look of extreme disappointment on his face. "Nothing much. I need these shoes urgently for now. Quick, quickly notify all the people in the hospital to leave the hospital immediately. The hospital is very dangerous."

After saying this, Lin Fan was about to rush out again. Unexpectedly, the patient with the injured arm also arrived at the door and was about to grab Lin Fan, shouting loudly, "You thief, where do you think you're running to?"

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

The middle-aged man glanced into the duty room and saw that the nurse hadn't been violated at all. His eyes widened and he realized that he had been wrong.

Suddenly, at this time, the siren outside blared loudly. Five police cars had already arrived at the gate. The Municipal People's Hospital wasn't too far from the police station, and it usually took less than five minutes to get there.

Lin Fan broke free from the middle-aged man's arm. "Who's the thief? Oh, I see. So it was you who called the police."

"Who called the police?" Two police officers had already entered the lobby and just happened to see the entanglement between Lin Fan and the middle-aged man.

"I did!"

Lin Fan and the middle-aged man almost answered at the same time.

"Who's the thief?" The two police officers looked at each other in confusion, and one of them shouted loudly.

"Boom!" Suddenly, the door at the end of the left corridor made a loud noise as if something heavy was pounding on it! Needless to say, something was pounding hard on it outside!

"Oh no! That big zombie is about to come out. Police officers, how many of you are there? Did you bring weapons?" Lin Fan broke free from the middle-aged man's entanglement and quickly rushed to the side of the middle-aged police officer on the left to ask.

The two police officers heard something pounding on the door and also curiously turned their heads to look over. The middle-aged police officer stared at Lin Fan with wide eyes and asked, "Young man, you look so flustered in the middle of the night. Are you a bad guy?"

"There are zombies! The zombies are coming out!" Lin Fan quickly said. At this moment, it was definitely not the time to explain his situation.

"This is a hospital, not a science fiction movie like you think!" The middle-aged police officer reprimanded loudly and then said to the young police officer on the right, "Go and take a look to see what it is. It's so late at night. How can people sleep?"

"Don't go! It's really zombies. I beg you. Take out your weapons quickly, or something really bad will happen." Lin Fan didn't care about his dignity and said a bunch of words, but these two police officers remained unmoved. Lin Fan shifted his gaze to the waists of the two police officers: Damn it! These two police officers only had electric batons with them and no other lethal weapons.

"Doctor Lin, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Meng had been standing aside all the time, looking at all this in surprise. When she heard Lin Fan's words, she thought it was funny. Not long ago, she had just been to the entrance of that passageway. How could there be zombies in such a short time? It was completely absurd. However, looking at Lin Fan's disheveled appearance, it didn't seem like he was joking. Moreover, in Zhang Meng's heart, Lin Fan, as a doctor, was a serious person who didn't joke around.

Zombies were extremely terrifying and disgusting things. Just thinking of this word made Zhang Meng's whole body covered with goosebumps. She remembered that she had watched some European and American blockbusters before, like the "Resident Evil" series of movies. Even though she was much braver than ordinary girls, she was still startled by the bloody scenes in the movies. The shadow of the terrifying plots in the movies lingered.

"Nurse Zhang, leave here quickly. It's very dangerous here. I'll go upstairs to notify the patients. It'll be too late if we're late." Lin Fan didn't care about their astonishment. Before leaving, he turned around and shouted at the two police officers, "Don't open the door no matter what. Wait for me to come back. You must wait for me." After saying that, Lin Fan rushed upstairs with a thud, leaving behind several people with astonished looks on their faces.

"Nurse Zhang, is he really a doctor?" The patient with the injured arm immediately asked Zhang Meng.

"Um, he's Doctor Lin from the laboratory department of our hospital."

"Was it you who reported the case just now? Said that young man was a thief?"

"Uh, police officers, I'm really sorry about this..."

"Smack!"

Finally, the door was forced open by the force from behind it. The young police officer was still on his way to the end of the corridor, thinking to himself that Lin Fan's words were nonsense: "Could it be that a patient was locked down there? Why didn't I hear him shouting?"

Who would have thought that once the door was broken, what came into view was a group of corpses, and among these corpses was a huge corpse, more than twice the size of an ordinary person!

"Ah!"

When Lin Fan was running to the second floor of the hospital department, he heard Zhang Meng's shrill scream coming from downstairs. Lin Fan stopped in his tracks with a thud, and a bad premonition rose in his heart: "Oh no! Those zombie hordes have finally broken through the door defense! Those police officers, I hope they can wipe out those zombies. Saving people is the top priority now. There's no time to worry about anything else."

"Everyone, run! The hospital has encountered an emergency situation and all patients need to leave the hospital immediately!" Lin Fan rushed into each department office. Whether they were sleeping or playing on the computer, he rushed over in one stride and slapped them twice to wake them up.

Lin Fan knew that in the eyes of his colleagues, he had become a madman!

"Ah!" Many screams came one after another from all parts of the hospital. After a period of intense exercise, Lin Fan also felt tired. At this time, he had already run to the third floor, which was the inpatient department!

Lin Fan saw that the whole hospital was in an unprecedented panic. He crouched in the corridor, and many patients had already started to organize themselves spontaneously and flee in a panic! The fleeing crowd showed an unprecedented level of madness!

The sounds of trampling, falling, shouting for help, and screaming grew louder and louder. The hospital was no longer a paradise for saving lives and healing the wounded but had become a hell with corpses everywhere! Between heaven and hell, there was only a shallow gap!

The atrocities of the zombies had completely spread on the first floor. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that there was blood flowing like a river and corpses lying everywhere. There was no need for Lin Fan to go upstairs to notify the people in those rooms personally anymore, as they had already organized themselves to flee spontaneously.
