For a year since the disaster began, Knight has been using social chat rooms to try to find other survivors across North America, even though the power was inexplicably not completely cut off.

 

     At first, there were many survivors talking about how to avoid vampires or how to survive in the chat room, but as time went by, they gradually stopped going online. Only Knight was left asking alone on the social networking site, "Hello, Is anyone else here?", but there was no response, so no need to guess that they are all gone...

 

     At this moment, the other party in the dialog box typed

 

"Thank God! I thought everyone was dead. I am Naira. I am in Fort Wayne. I am alone and have nowhere to go. I am so scared. Where can I find you?"

 

     This message made everyone look solemn...

 

 _________________________________________

 

    Later, Jack, as the leader, asked everyone cautiously,

 

    "Do you agree to bring this survivor named Naira here?

 

   Seeing that everyone was standing in one corner and looking embarrassed, it was obvious that everyone had different opinions.

 

       After all, one more person is just here to grab food resources, and this shelter cannot accommodate one more person.

 

     "I disagree."

 

    Monica walked out first. She was already dissatisfied with Jack, but now she looked at Jack with displeasure, her hands on her chest.

 

      "We don't agree either..".

 

   Frank and Olivia, a couple who are usually timid, lazy and shameless, expressed their opinions outright at this time, fearing that one more person would take their place...

 

    "  Why don't you save the survivors when you see them? It's just a few people, so it's not a burden, right?"

 

       Representative Bill and Amanda spoke of their opinions. The couple saw that things were unexpectedly generous and did not object.

 

     Eventually, everyone started to argue.

     While everyone was arguing, a bayonet was suddenly thrust straight into the table to silence everyone.

      

    " Be quiet...if we stop making noise, the vampires will find us...Do you still want to live?"

 

       Mark, who had always been quiet, finally couldn't help it. He put away the knife and reminded everyone in a low and cold tone, because even if they were on the third floor underground, the vampire's hearing was still very keen, and they might still be discovered if they made too loud a sound.

 

       "Everyone, do you still need to think about saving people? I don’t care, I just want to save this."

 

      Knight finally couldn't stand everyone's hesitation and angrily typed out their location on the keyboard.

 

     Soon, the other party replied:

 

     "  Thank you, I'm coming to see you."

 

At this point, everyone didn't know what to say, and they couldn't blame Nate. They could only go back to the room, and only Jack patted Nate on the shoulder to comfort him..

 

        "You're great...Thank you ..."

        

         At this time, Knight was also angrily thinking:

       

        “That's how it should be..”

         That night, Knight sat in front of the computer all night talking to the upcoming survivor...

 

    

______________________________

        That night, there was a heavy thunderstorm in Chicago. During the thunderstorm, Elizabeth, who was hidden by Jack in Humboldt Park, was tossing and turning in bed, having nightmares one after another...

       

         First, she dreamed that she had a pair of very young and good-looking parents, and a naughty younger brother. The family was happily enjoying picnics and playing in the sunshine and grassland, spending a happy and unforgettable time. day.

     

       Then the scene jumped, and a bright moon hung high in the dark night. Their family was taken to a building and imprisoned in an auditorium. Many vampires surrounded them, staring at them hungrily as if they were dinner. they.

 

       These vampires are not like the ones who rummage through boxes and cabinets on the street and only have a blood-sucking instinct. Instead, they look human-like, with an aristocratic aura, and behave elegantly even if they want to suck their blood.

 

       Their family hugged each other in fear. It seemed that these vampires had some kind of agenda against them. Each of them stared at the family with evil intentions and whispered. This made Elizabeth break into a cold sweat while lying on the bed having this dream.

 

        In the dream, among these vampires, a tall but stern man with blond hair suddenly walked out from the crowd alone. His pale and handsome face held Elizabeth's chin with an unpredictable smile and said :

 

       "Elizabeth, do you want to save your family? Sacrifice yourself and become our experimental subject. Maybe we can keep your family safe..."

 

        Elizabeth in the dream was very frightened and had no choice but to say tremblingly:

 

      "Okay...as long as you let my family go...I will promise you anything..."

       

        As soon as these words came out, the dream immediately jumped to the most frightening part - being bitten by a vampire.

 

       In the dream, Elizabeth was bitten on the wrist and turned into a vampire in the laboratory. She was then tortured in the sun, bitten again, and then put in the sun again. This process was repeated over and over again, causing her great pain. , and she was tossing and turning in a cold sweat while lying on the bed dreaming.

 

      "NO!!"

 

       Finally, Elizabeth could no longer bear the sudden awakening and sat up in fright, only to realize that it was morning.

 

       She wondered in her heart, was the dream just a dream or part of her memory...?

       

 

________________________________           

 

       Near noon the next day, Jack led Nate, Monica, Bill, and Amanda on the street to wait for this strange survivor to arrive. Especially although Monica was opposed to it, she just wanted to see where this person came from, especially judging from the name that he was a girl, which made her stare at the end of the street even more unfavorably.

 

     "We have been waiting for an hour, how long do we have to wait?..."

 

       Monica muttered uneasily, and everyone could only look at each other and wait.

 

      Not long after, a car drove slowly from the far side of the street, and a strange atmosphere arose when everyone turned to look at the car...

       

        Because this car looks a bit weird. It looks like the car of some kind of bosozoku or extreme believer. It is full of iron spikes and graffiti. The most concerning thing is that there is a skull hanging on the front of the car. . ..

       

       When everyone looked in the direction of the car, Monica couldn't help but make a sound.

 

      "Everyone...am I the only one who thinks this is weird…?"

   

      Monica's words made everyone look at each other, but they didn't dare to say anything because no one could make any conclusions before they saw the person. Everyone could only watch the car approaching.

 

         Finally, this strange car came to a stop in front of everyone. The dark windows made it unclear what kind of people were sitting inside, so everyone stood on guard.

 

      Soon, the car door opened.

 

    Unexpectedly, a young woman wearing glasses walked down. She was dressed in a rustic style and had a ponytail. She looked panicked and scared. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.

 

     “…Hi…I’m Naira…Thank God…I’m finally here…"

 

       Naila spoke in a panic, and Nate couldn't help but comfort her.

 

      "Don't be afraid...I am Nate...I was the one who contacted you"

 

       Knight tried to comfort Naila, but before he could finish his words, Naila hugged him and cried.

 

       "Ugh... I'm so scared!!... I've been wandering between cities for the past year... From the beginning, I met some desperate people... but recently I haven't met them at all. Everyone else... Do you know how hard it is for your iliac muscles?!...Ugh..."

 

        Knight was overwhelmed by the girl's sudden hug, which made everyone boo.

 

     "Wow...you're lucky Nate!"

 

      But Knight quickly pushed this Naira away from the awkward denial and peeked at Monica's reaction. Although Knight secretly liked Monica and didn't want her to misunderstand, Monica was also seriously looking at the girl named Naila at this time.

 

      "Who are you? Where do you come from? Why do you drive this particular car?"

 

        Monica kept questioning Naila, but Naila seemed to be a socially awkward female college student, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a face full of freckles, and red hair tied with two pigtails...she went in panic. Jack leans in.

 

     I'm Naira... I'm just a college student. I searched for other survivors alone from Quebec City. I finally came to Michigan City after knowing about your presence. I also found this car on the way... I'm so scared. ..."

 

       Naila grabbed Jack's clothes and buried her face in it, crying. Although Jack didn't immediately push away like Knight, he only politely gave up his shoulder for her to lean on.

 

      But this pissed off Monica..

 

     "You, wait a minute!"

 

       Monica unceremoniously stretched out her hand to block Naila's move to stick to Jack, and then pulled the person over to question.

 

      "Miss, your statement is unreasonable... No one can survive alone in the vampire world. What is your purpose here?"
