The rain kept falling, without ever stopping.
The people atop the Water Tower continually fended off the Zombies climbing up. It was their third shift, and it was now past four in the afternoon. It seemed certain that the rain would not stop today.
Inside the small room, there was a chorus of snores. Everyone was very exhausted, especially knowing that they were surrounded by Zombies.
Third Uncle found Qin and told him to take a short rest. In the previous shift, Qin had gone without a replacement twice in a row, without giving any reasons. Qin simply wanted to hold out here.
Persuaded by Third Uncle, Qin did not insist and stepped down from his defensive position.
Below the Water Tower lay the bodies of over a thousand Zombies, chaotically strewn on the hard concrete ground.
At the very center, the bodies of Zombies had already accumulated around the base of the tower's pillar, piling up to a height of three to four meters.
