A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

Chapter 837 Tara's Past

While the old man was talking to Lu Cheng, Lily and Tara came over with plates: "Dad, what are you talking about with Lu?"

"Nothing, just chatting about some male topics. Megan just started talking."

Lily was also a little excited when she heard this: "Really? Baby..."

"Mother…"

"Oh, thank God."

The old man shook his head: "Lily, I think you should thank Mr. Lu more. God has abandoned us."

"Yes, of course we have to thank Lu."

"Hey, Lu, try some spaghetti donuts my sister and I made. Want some wine? I can get you a glass."

"Thank you, the spaghetti rings are pretty good."

While eating, the family talked a lot and asked a lot of questions about the news outside.

After a simple meal, the two women helped their old father back to the bedroom. Lily began to clean up the dishes, while Tara took Lu Cheng to room 203 next door: "This room belongs to my neighbor Miss Mei, but she went out for a trip half a year ago and hasn't come back since. She may never come back. You live here now. Just knock on the door if you need anything."

At this moment, a zombie roared from upstairs. Without waiting for Lu Cheng to ask, Tara explained: "The one upstairs is my father's old friend, who also turned into a monster. I went up there twice and fired two rounds of bullets, but the monster is still alive."

"Then I'll give him a ride."

"I'll go with you. I have the key to their house."

Afterwards, the two went to the third floor, opened the door, went to the bathroom inside, drew open the curtains, and saw a zombie lying in the bathtub. Only the upper body was left, but it was still wriggling and roaring, and looked extremely disgusting.

Tara pulled out the pistol she had just brought from home and was about to load it with bullets, but was stopped by Lu Cheng, who pulled out a steel nail from his waist, snapped his fingers, and the nail shot straight into the zombie's head. The zombie fell down immediately without a sound.

"Cool, how did you do that? Can you teach me? I saw that you were such a good shooter before, better than my instructor at the police academy. What did you do before?"

"I once served in the Army Special Forces. As for this move, even if I teach you, you won't be able to learn it in a short time."

"All right. Here's another revolver with half a box of bullets. Do you want it?"

"No, keep it for yourself."

"Thank you."

When the two returned downstairs, Lily brought a bucket of water and placed it in room 203: "You may need to wipe the sweat off your body. There is not much fuel and water. Fortunately, it is summer now."

"Thank you."

"Then we won't disturb your rest."

After the two women left, Lu Cheng briefly checked the environment of the house, washed his body casually, then sat on the sofa, closed his eyes, relaxed his mind, and felt everything around him.

It was a dark night, and everything was quiet. There were no zombies wandering on the streets of the town. Only one or two roars could be heard faintly from some houses and shops.

There was no other living person in the whole town except Tara's family.

Although there are no specific statistics, according to the Atlanta Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's research on the virus, the infection rate of the mutated zombie virus is 95%, and the probability of direct mutation is also over %.

That is to say, only about five people out of every 100 can survive, and the others around them will turn into zombies in the first place.

With such a high probability of infection, it is difficult to control the situation even in a military camp with the most complete weapons and equipment.

After all, when the virus first broke out, the transformed zombies had not yet begun to rot, but their skin color turned gray-brown and their pupils became dull, not much different from their normal appearance.

When faced with the initial zombies, many people thought they were just sick, not brain dead, and would not easily shoot them. When a large number of unkillable zombies came over, even the soldiers would panic.

Today, the number of surviving humans in the world is less than one percent, and this number will continue to decrease.

The modern civilization that humans have developed over thousands of years was completely destroyed by the zombie virus in just two months.

As he was thinking about something and letting his mind wander for a while, Lu Cheng took out some empty magazines and bullets, filled the empty magazines one by one, and then put them away again.

Just as Lu Cheng was about to lie down for a nap, there was a slight knock on the door. Without opening the door, Lu Cheng knew who was coming just by the breathing outside.

After opening the door, Tara was standing outside. She was wearing a loose vest and seemed to have nothing on. There were still some undried water stains on her hair, obviously she had just taken a shower.

"Wouldn't you like me to come in and sit down?"

Lu Cheng took a look at the bottle of red wine and two wine glasses in the other person's hands. He already understood what was going to happen next. He did not refuse and took a step back to make way.

Tara walked in straight away, closed the door with her foot, sat down on the sofa, poured two glasses of red wine, and handed one to Lu Cheng: "I couldn't bear to buy red wine before, but now I can drink it as much as I want without spending any money. However, I still miss the past more."

"If possible, everyone hopes that this damn apocalypse is just a dream."

"Yeah, the end of the world is really boring. I can only stay at home every day, and it's dangerous to go out. It turns out that it's really boring to do nothing. Cheers."

"cheers."

After a few words of small talk and two or three glasses of red wine, Tara put down the glass with a bit of confusion in her eyes: "Lu, in such a boring world, do you want to do something exciting with me?"

"for example?"

"For example..." As she spoke, Tara had already taken off the vest that didn't fit her to begin with, fully displaying her broad mind...

As for women who come to him on their own initiative, as long as they are not too ugly, men will not refuse them in most cases. If they don't refuse, they may be beasts, and if they refuse, they may be...

More than half an hour later, Tara, with a rosy face, leaned on Lu Cheng's arms and put her face on Lu Cheng's chest: "It's really exciting and different..."

The reason why Lu Cheng did not reject Tara who came to him on her own initiative was not only because her face was more attractive and not only because she was tolerant, but also because she also gave him a little red flower.

"When I first entered high school, I found that I was different from other girls. I preferred young and beautiful girls to those teenage boys. At that time, my favorite girl was called Sam. We had a good relationship and I thought I had found my soulmate.

Until that summer, we went out for an outing together, accidentally took hallucinogenic mushrooms, and had a wonderful... well, it wasn't wonderful at all. Sam actually told me that she had a boyfriend and she didn't like girls! At that moment, my world collapsed.

When I was in the police academy, I fell in love with a classmate. She had a chubby belly like me. But unfortunately, her family didn't agree with us being together. And she was a mama's girl...

Now it seems that the boy is not that bad. You make me feel really good. Don't think too much. I don't need you to be responsible. Just think of it as my way of repaying you for saving me and my sister. I don't know when the days like this will end. Maybe I will die tomorrow. I can meet you before I die and spend a wonderful night with you. I have no regrets..."
