Moments later, Malachi and David realised another problem: where were they going to place the unconscious pair?
They surely could not leave them out cold in the open like this.
Apart from it being inhuman, they were not about to let their help go to waste just to eat the two on some silver plate which in this case was a road cleaned from zombies, for now.
They had caused quite a bit of noise in this area already, so they had to leave soon, but they also had to take the crystal hearts from the zombies around. There was a lot, and leaving them would be more than a waste.
In the apocalypse where the crystal hearts were treasures to increase their strength so they potentially don't end up in the same shoes as the man and the child, leaving them behind was an even bigger sin than leaving the man and the child behind.
