Level up Zombie-Chapter 202 A Hint Of A Past

When looking at the highway the two of them were on, it was emptier than Kelly had expected. For one, many of the cars looked to have been moved to the side of the road and onto the land or in with the trees and such.

In some cases, it looked like a large vehicle had just bulldozed them out of the way. On top of that, there just weren't many cars. It looked like whenever the attack happened, and where the attacks were concentrated, most people weren't out on the road at the time. They were in the cities and such. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Because of this, their driving experience was quite smooth. Still, there was silence in the car between the two, as neither person was talking to the other and it was just leaving Kelly to think about the conversation they had not too long before.

'I remember at school when they gave me that report. So what it said, according to Zain, it was all true?' Kelly thought.

On the report she was given, the warning from the principal of the school was the fact that Zain was a juvie student. A student who had been to a Juvenile Detention Centre. They were called by many different names but practically, it was a prison for kids who were underage.

Kelly was a substitute teacher at the same university as Zain. At that age, Zain was able to go to prison, which meant whatever it was he had done, he had done it before university when he was still considered a child.

There were multiple reasons why a kid might go to a Juvie centre, but it was usually cases that were beyond what teachers or parents could handle, and when looking at Zain's file, it was one of the worst crimes one could commit.

'Zain said what was written on his file was true, so that means… he really was a murderer.' Kelly thought.

Those were the words that were written on his report. The thing was, what was clearly stated on the report was "murder" and not manslaughter, which were two clearly different things.

In many cases, where one kills the victim by accident, through self defence or with no intention, it would be considered manslaughter, but in Zain's case, the file indicated murder, which meant he was sane, it was intentional as well.

It was something Kelly had never seen before, and it was the reason why she was so frightened of him. Sure, she had seen many people commit such an act in the current world, and if Zain was to do those things now, she would understand, but what could have possibly driven a person so much to make them commit such an act before the world had become like so.

Once in a while, thinking about this, Kelly would glance over at Zain. He didn't seem like a crazy person, and all of her interactions with him had been relatively nice. She wanted to ask about his past, ask about what happened back then, but it didn't seem like Zain wanted to talk about it.

When he was in the position to, or when she felt close enough to ask that question, she would find out the reason why. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

For Zain though, this explained a lot, he wondered why Kelly was so cautious about him, and now that he knew she knew about his past, he felt like he could relax slightly.

"So… you want to know, don't you?" Zain said with a smile. "I… don't like speaking about it too much, and a lot of it I tried to remove out of my mind, but it's impossible, especially lately with all the visions I've been having. I-"

Just when Zain was about to talk about it, he started to slow down the vehicle because there was a row of cars in front, a barricade that almost blocked the car from going further.

Looking at the map, they still weren't really out of the current city area, and they still had a ways to go before heading to the Reborn group.

"What's happening?" Kelly asked.

The two got out of the car, to see what was going on, and that's when they could see other people had gotten out of their cars as well. After exiting from their vehicles, they would start to walk around the barricade of cars, or through the small gaps that were left open.

"We will just have to see." Zain replied. "We'll have a look, and if there is trouble, then we'll try heading another way."

Zain wondered with his current strength if he could push and move the cars out of the way, but the amount of humans that were here was what was alarming him. In this area alone there were around ten or so, doing the same thing.

When they eventually went through one of the small gaps in the barricade, they could see up ahead there were several rows of people, each one containing around 20 people, there had to be hundreds of people here.

"What do we do?" Kelly asked, because she had seen why people were lining up.

"I'm not sure what our best option is." Zain replied while thinking.

The reason why the people were queuing up was to exit out of the city, because the military had formed a barrier. They all had weapons, and large vehicles were surrounding the exits. It looked like they were checking every person that went in and out of the place.

If it was set up here, it was most likely set up everywhere in the area. Which meant they were stuck. If they wanted to head to the Reborn group's hideout, they would have to confront the military either way, and Zain was sure he would be sniffed out.
