On April 14, 2019, it has been 9 days since the survivors had entered the library. A group of survivors decided to start cleaning up the fifth floor of the library.

Rich man Miao was standing in the middle of the line holding a sharpened mop stick, and his forehead was wet with cold sweat. For a while, his thigh would start trembling.

The courier Li Cheng smiled at him. "Brother Miao, don't be nervous. Zombies are not so scary. They don't respond quickly when we run. They are slow to respond. Just aim at the place carefully, and it's just like catching a silly rabbit. Moreover, Mr. Shen is here. I have followed Mr. Shen three times to clean the place. Just listen to Mr. Shen's instruction later and there will be no problem. The participant who was bitten before got bitten because he didn't listen to Mr. Shen's instruction. He saw a pile of snacks on the table and rushed forward, only to be bitten by a zombie hiding behind the curtains."

Li Cheng's words were immediately supported by other participants. "Don't look at Brother Shen's young age, his skill is really good."

"Yes, yes, very alert and fast response. When we were clearing the second floor, I hadn't seen where the zombies were and he had already solved three."

"And remember, that time he used the thorn stick and stepped on the wall to move around, so handsome, like the things you see on TV. Putting aside the zombies, if I took a phone and post it on the internet, it will definitely become viral."

"Remember, remember, how can I forget it, my life was saved by Brother Shen. Hey hey hey, brother Shen is the best."

Rich man Miao looked at the relaxed attitude of everyone, and the thorn stick that Shen Shian held in his hand, and his thigh didn't tremble that much.

"Everyone concentrate, don't chat anymore," Zhang Ze's gentle and clear voice sounded at the right time. "The fight against zombies depends on the strength of the group, and every member is important. Even if there is a master like Mr. Shen here, don't take this lightly. If everyone is ready, I'm going to open the stairwell door."

Li Cheng lowered his body slightly, held the steel tube tightly in his hand and made a cautious posture. He whispered to remind rich man Miao next to him, "Remember to aim at the zombie's eyes and the back of its head. Mr. Shen taught us that those two places are the easiest to kill them."

"Ah, I'll remember." Rich man Miao nodded again and again, keeping the words "eyes" and "back" in his heart. As soon as the door opened, he followed the others and rushed out to meet the howling of the zombies.

The cleaning process went smoothly. There were a total of 30 participants in the clean-up operation, and about 145 zombies across the entire fifth floor. The participants were divided into 6 groups. After entering the library area, they moved clockwise to cover each others' backs. They quickly cleared more than a third of the area.

The first zombie encountered by Miao Shoufu was a female. She was petite and a head shorter than him, but half of her cheeks and teeth were bitten, and she did not look weak at all. Rich man Miao was stiff, and his brain reminded him of what has to be done. He tightened his hand on the mop stick and thrust it into the eyes of the zombie.

But he accidentally thrusted it in a crooked angle, the tip of the stick was stuck in the nasal bone. It couldn't be pulled out or in. With a mop stick in his face, the zombie screamed hoarsely and tried to pounce on him.

Shen Shian came and kicked the end of the mop stick. Rich man Miao felt that his body was leaning forward uncontrollably. A sound of something breaking was heard, the tip of the stick pierced the skull and inserted into the brain. The semi-liquefied brain suddenly burst out along the gap like a fountain. If he hadn't covered his face with plastic wrap, he wouldn't eat a meal.

Shen Shian didn't turn his head back, and in a blink of an eye he solved two more. "Find the right position and use all your strength. Don't panic, this is your only life."

Rich man Miao didn't dare to sniff the plastic wrap. He quickly followed Shen Shian.

It was already three hours when the whole floor was cleaned up and checked twice. A tall man with the surname of Zhuang pulled off the mask and plastic wrap on his face, and took a few sips of water. He then looked at others with some fear, “Hey, does anyone find the speed of zombies faster than before? I met a zombie who could almost catch up with me. If it wasn't for the bookshelf, I might have died."

"No, they're still slow. I solved four today."

Someone joked, "Maybe it's your male scent that is causing them to be wild."

"Ha ha ha ha ha"

After the fierce battle, everyone laughed. Shen Shian's heart was not at peace. It seemed that the zombies could evolve. That being the case, then can humans also evolve? Is the longer time taken to mutate after being infected with the virus, a part of the evolution or is it just the beginning of an evolution that will push this end of the world situation into a new situation?

The only good news was that not all zombies can evolve. According to Shen Shian's observations over the past few days, only about 2% to 1% of the zombies have improved speed and reaction. In the meantime, as long as this ratio does not suddenly rise, humans were still in a slight advantage.

"Okay," Zhang Ze clapped his hands. "The clean-up operation is successfully completed again. Thanks to everyone for their courage and dedication. After a short break, we will start distributing the supplies. Let's collect the supplies and place them on the second floor. Xiao Ma, wait for the left-behind to come up to clean up then throw all the zombies down."

As the survival situation in the library became more difficult, the only way for the left-behind who were unwilling to participate in the cleanup operation to obtain supplies was to do clean up work. This method was proposed by Zhang Ze, and the reason given was to protect the interests of both the participants and the people who stayed behind so that more people can survive this disaster.

The number of leftovers and participants was equal, and everyone could get about one-tenth of the total supplies. Even so, the opinions of the participants who risked their lives for the supplies were getting bigger and bigger. "I don't have enough to eat yet I still have to give food to those people who didn't want to dirty their hands. If they don't have the courage to beat the zombies, just let them starve."
