Chapter 99 Uninvited Guest

All of them heard the knock on the Club's main entrance, and then came a voice from the other side. Jelly, who was closest to the door, was ready to slide open the shutter. It was a small envelope-size shutter that allowed one to see outside of the place.

Before he did though, Shark shouted out to him.

"Wait!" Shark shouted. "That voice, it's not Kun, nor does it sound like Zain. Check who they are first before letting them in."

Hearing Shark shout, everyone gathered in the main room. Fingers went off to the side along with Pink as both of them continued to stare at the door. They had originally run forward, excited that Kun might be back with the others.

Listening to Shark's orders, Jelly didn't open the shutter and instead just spoke through the door.

"Name!" Jelly asked.

"Please! My name is Jerry. There are zombies outside of this place chasing me! Please let me in!" Jerry shouted as he started to panic and banged the door with his two fists. He was banging it again and again frantically, sounding desperate, and it was loud.

"He smells human," Jelly confirmed to the rest. "What do you want me to do?"

Since it was a human, letting him in might give him a bigger fright, but they couldn't imagine a human causing them a lot of trouble, especially for Shark, but there was a bad feeling in his gut that was telling him something was wrong.

'This is the first time since being here that something like this has happened, and why so late? Why are they outside?'

"Shouldn't we let him in?" Pink asked. "He'll die out there. I know that we are not the same but…but we still have a family who still might be humans as well. What if that was our family member out there?"

'Follow current novels on No v elBin.',

Due to the recent events, Pink was more inclined to try and help out others. She imagined if that man was her father, or perhaps if someone had helped out her sister during their desperate time, they would be okay.

"We can't take the risk. What happens if that man tries to attack us, then? The safest thing to do is to look out for ourselves." Shark stated.

Perhaps if this had happened before, happening a few hours before Zain had disappeared, the others would have listened to him, but their trust in Shark had been muddled. They looked at him in a different way compared to before.

"Why are you always so selfish!" Pink shouted.

"I also feel like if the banging on the door continues like this, it will attract more Zombies to this area and then the evolved ones might come here and attack us. A human is easier to deal with as compared to Evolved zombies, right?" Fingers argued, supporting Pink.

With the backup she needed, Pink felt like she was strong enough to take charge.

"Open the door!" Pink ordered.

It felt like everyone was going against Shark right now, and while in the middle of his thoughts, he hadn't given another order to Jelly for him to stop, and the door was soon opened.

A middle-aged man with black hair soon ran in, with his hands both on his knees and was huffing and panting, looking at the floor. Jelly looked outside and quickly closed the door.

"Thank you, thank you so much for saving me." The man said, still breathing heavily. "You don't understand I was so close to being bitten and eaten. A man like me can't survive out there."

The man was wearing a suit that had been ripped torn and was also a little bloody as well. It seemed like he had gone through a lot. Still, the others seemed nervous because they all wondered how the man would react once he lifted his head and saw them, finding out that they were Zombies as well.

At that moment, Fingers was the first to walk out towards the man seeing that he had no weapons on him. He didn't seem like a threat, and Fingers also had the least obvious wounds on his body which indicated that he was a Zombie.

"Ahh!" The man screamed in a frightened voice as he fell over backwards and onto his back. "You…you …you're Zombies!" the man shouted.

',

He twisted his head, looking at each and every one of them, noticing all of the strange marks they had, their pale skin and their slightly dull coloured eyes.

"Please, sir, we are not here to hurt you." Fingers said in a calm voice while also having his usual large smile on his face. "We have run into the Zombies outside like you, but as you can see, we are a group of people that have found ourselves immune to their effect."

"We can talk and still do everything just like a human. It's only our appearance that is like this. We mean you no harm; after all, we wouldn't have let you in and saved you from the real Zombies outside otherwise."

Fingers had been wondering what to say for a while if he had ever met another human, and it looked like his practice was working as the man seemed to calm down. Lowering his head, the man stared at the floor. However, for some reason, Fingers noticed the man's shoulders were trembling.

"Man isn't being chased." Jelly suddenly said.

At that moment, Shark's ears pricked up.

"What did you say, Jelly? What do you mean?"

"Outside...there are no Zombies chasing the man." Jelly replied.

The man who was on the ground, his shoulders started to shake more and more until he started to laugh.

"Haha, looks like I've hit the jackpot here."

"Everyone!' Shark shouted at the top of his lungs. "Run!"
