The little girl, Lanlan, ran out of the door and headed towards the corridor, just in time to see Tang Ye making a swift exit.
"Zombie Uncle! Don't leave! Please, don't go!" Lanlan called out to him.
Tang Ye, seemingly not hearing her, quickened his pace. He hustled down the stairs, making a clanging noise as he went. Lanlan followed, her little legs scampering after him.
"Zombie Uncle, stop running, Lanlan's not afraid of you..."
In no time, Tang Ye reached the first floor and was out the door. How can tiny Lanlan keep up with him? By the time she got to the first floor, Tang Ye was already at the entrance of the complex.
Breathless and desperate, Lanlan could no longer contain herself. She yelled out, "Zombie Uncle! Where are you going?"
Her voice echoed in the empty courtyard of the complex, instantly attracting over a dozen zombies from outside. They howled and charged in. Tang Ye hadn't expected her to be this persistent. He hadn't closed the main gate when he came in!
