Go Up to the Fifth Floor

"Attention, all personnel still in the hospital. Attention, please. Those on the third floor and above, please go to the rooftop on the fourth floor as soon as possible. There are special operations team members there, and with their cooperation, they can take you to a safe area."

At this time, a loud and powerful announcement came from outside the hospital through a loudspeaker. The sound was so loud that it immediately spread throughout the entire hospital.

After Lin Fan fired three consecutive shots and dealt with the three zombies, he saw that the three police officers behind him took ropes from themselves. Those ropes were emergency ropes they used when climbing tall buildings and were very sturdy. The three police officers immediately tied the zombified Brother Cheng firmly to a stone pillar.

Lin Fan and the three police officers looked at each other, all with wry smiles on their faces.

"My name is Chen Tong, and I'm the captain of the Public Security Bureau's Security Department. Young man, you have good shooting skills. Have you used a gun before?" They were all a bit tired and lay on the ground to take a short break. The police officer on the left introduced himself at the moment and turned his head to look at Lin Fan. Lin Fan knew that the gun in his hand was exactly his.

"That was many years ago." Lin Fan handed the gun over to Chen Tong.

"Thank you very much. I'll leave first." The man who had been trembling with fear rushed out of the room in a flash and ran towards the upstairs direction.

The four of them sat quietly for a minute, while the sound of the loudspeaker outside continued non-stop.

"What's your name? You seem to know quite a bit about these zombies." Chen Tong looked at Lin Fan.

"I'm an intern graduate student at this hospital, and my name is Lin Fan."

"Lin Fan, that name sounds familiar." Chen Tong slapped his head, but couldn't recall it for a moment. It was the police officer on the right who reminded him, "Boss, the daughter of Mayor Cai once had a boyfriend named Lin Fan. That was many years ago. It's said that the guy was quite extraordinary."

"Oh, right. Mayor Cai once had a daughter named Cai Tingting. Do you know her?" Chen Tong suddenly realized and turned his head to look at Lin Fan. He noticed that Lin Fan's face suddenly became gloomy.

Lin Fan nodded weakly, "I'm the one you're talking about."

"Ah, kid, it's really you." Hearing this, Chen Tong was clearly surprised. After being stunned for a while, he quickly handed his service pistol to Lin Fan, "Take it. Use it for self-defense. Let's rush downstairs together. The outside rescue teams are all here, and these zombies should almost be wiped out by us."

While walking, Chen Tong asked, "Lin Fan, do you still have contact with Mayor Cai's family?"

Lin Fan nodded, "I visit Tingting occasionally."

"She, she's already dead, isn't she?"

Hearing this, Lin Fan suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Chen Tong, and after a short silence, he said, "She's dead. But can't I visit her just because she's dead? I mean to pay my respects to her." Lin Fan turned around and continued walking.

Hearing what Lin Fan said, Chen Tong and the other two police officers secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Back then, the love story between Lin Fan and Cai Tingting had spread throughout the entire City S. He could be considered a celebrity in this city. Alas, actually, Lin Fan was also a pitiful person.

On the second floor, Lin Fan and Chen Tong's group rescued three medical staff members who were hiding in the dark. Lin Fan would go up to ask them if they had been scratched or bitten by zombies. They all shook their heads and said no. Hearing this, Lin Fan felt much more relieved.

Just as they were about to go downstairs, Lin Fan's phone rang again with a "ding, ding, ding" sound.

Lin Fan took out his phone and took a look. It was a call from Mayor Cai.

"Hello, Uncle Cai."

Hearing this greeting, Chen Tong and the other two police officers immediately fell silent and showed respect for Lin Fan.

"Xiao Lin, where are you now?"

"I'm at home, sleeping." Lin Fan didn't want him to worry, so he lied.

"Oh, it's good that you're at home. It's good that you're at home. Well, go to sleep. You still have to go to work tomorrow."

After that, Lin Fan and Mayor Cai said goodnight to each other and hung up the phone.

"Was that a call from Mayor Cai just now?" Chen Tong immediately asked.

"Yes. He probably heard about what happened at the hospital, so he called to ask if I was at home."

"Oh dear, you shouldn't have said you were at home. I wanted to remind you, but I was worried about interrupting your conversation. Mayor Cai has probably already arrived at the hospital entrance by now. He's the temporary commander of the rescue team tonight."

"I know that." Lin Fan nodded and replied calmly.

"You know?" Chen Tong asked in surprise.

"Since something like this happened at the Municipal People's Hospital, as the mayor of this city, he must have known about it long ago. I lied to him. First, I didn't want him to worry about me. Second, I'm not planning to go out and meet him."

Before they knew it, they had already reached the staircase on the first floor.

Lin Fan took a step back and handed the pistol to Chen Tong, "You guys go out. I'll leave from the rooftop on the fourth floor. I hope you won't tell the mayor that you met me here."

"Ah, you're just leaving like this?" Chen Tong took the pistol, opened his mouth wide, and looked at Lin Fan with an expression of disbelief.

Lin Fan nodded, pulled Chen Tong aside, and said in a solemn tone, "Officer Chen, as you saw just now, after your brother was bitten by a zombie, he turned into a zombie himself not long after. So, after you go out, please tell all the doctors that it's necessary to perform amputation surgeries on those who were bitten by zombies at the hospital tonight. As for the reason, just tell them what you saw."

Chen Tong nodded heavily after hearing this, indicating that he would definitely convey the message. Lin Fan then turned to another police officer and said, "Brother, could you lend me your bayonet?"

The police officer quickly handed the bayonet to Lin Fan and took the opportunity to introduce himself, "My name is Wang Ming." Damn it! People around the mayor naturally couldn't wait to curry favor.

"You all go out. I can go to the fourth floor by myself." Lin Fan nodded to them and then turned around and ran towards the second floor. The several medical staff members who had been rescued together looked at Lin Fan with surprised expressions. Lin Fan smiled at them and then left.

After turning around and making sure he couldn't see the backs of Chen Tong and the others, Lin Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He held the bayonet in his hand, weighed it, and thought to himself, "Now I can go to the fifth basement floor by myself. Professor Wang, is your body still there? As your disciple, I must take you out."

Lin Fan picked up the concentrated acid again, stuck the bayonet in his waist, put a flashlight on his back, moved his feet a bit, and then ran downstairs with a thud from the opposite pedestrian staircase.

When Lin Fan arrived at the entrance to the basement, he saw a large number of police officers and firefighters blocking the entrance on the opposite side. It seemed that all the zombies in the hospital that could move around had been eliminated by the police officers.

Lin Fan felt relieved in his heart and took out his mobile phone at the right time. He scrolled to the phone number of the first call he answered tonight. It should be Zhang Meng's number. It was necessary for him to give her a call to let each other know that they were safe, which was also a sign of respect for her.

Lin Fan dialed the number, but there was only a beeping sound on the other end, and there was no response. After a while, the voice prompt "The call was not answered" came. Lin Fan closed his phone a bit disappointed and felt a bit worried in his heart, "She should be okay, right?"

Lin Fan didn't have time to think too much. He took out his flashlight and walked downstairs. He tried to slow down his steps as much as possible to avoid making any noise.

After walking for half an hour, Lin Fan finally managed to reach the entrance to the fifth basement floor. Starting from the corridor on the first basement floor, there were scattered corpses everywhere along the corridor, including fresh human tissues and old zombie fragments.

"Boom!" Lin Fan knocked on the wall beside the door to see if there was any movement inside. He waited quietly for a while, but there was no reaction at all. And by this time, all the smoke in this room had dissipated.

With a "swish" sound, Lin Fan pulled the bayonet out from his waist with his right hand, put the concentrated acid on the steps of the pedestrian corridor, turned on the flashlight, and then walked in slowly.

Lin Fan walked around those mutilated corpses and entered the room with four walls where he had first come in. Looking around, he saw that the glass door on the opposite side was completely shattered. Lin Fan immediately shone the flashlight on the stool in the second room!
