Chapter 1565

The sounds of sobbing and rapid footsteps echoed from an abandoned factory in the Northern Suburb.

Inside, a boy was running in fear, chased by two gruesome adults with blood-stained faces.

Their faces were marred by strange scars, disgustingly making them appear even more ferocious, and both their necks and arms bore the bites, with blood still dropping.

They were the boy’s parents, who were infected by the virus.

Once infected, they would morph within one to three days into irrational, rabid creatures, biting at anything in sight.

The boy kept crying out, but his parents remained unresponsive to his pleas.

He carried a small backpack, which made running even more difficult.

Suddenly, he fell hard, sprawling on the ground. Turning his head, he saw the faces of his parents, their faces akin to zombies, arms stretched out, lunging at him.

"Ah..."

A figure swiftly passed in front of him, and then he saw a girl holding a stick, standing by his side.

His zombified parents now lay unconscious, subdued by the girl’s attacks.

The girl, with serious eyes and hair in twin braids, turned to him and said, "No worries, hurry up and stand."

He was stupefied. Then with a glance at his parents, he ran to check on them, crying.

"Your parents are poisoned. They must be sent to the hospital, and you mustn’t touch them. If there’s a wound on you, the virus could enter through it, and infect you too," warned the girl.

At her advice, the boy hastily withdrew his hand.

Just then, he saw a man entering.

The man was dressed in pure white, radiant and saintly.

The girl’s demeanor changed when she saw him, gasping grazily, she ran to him and smiled, "Milty, I put a halt to two more patients who were trying to escape."

Milton White, a man of few words, dialed a number and notified the hospital to dispatch some people.

Afterwards, he left in his car.

Ethel followed, nimbly getting into the car.

She turned and saw Milton’s face, haggard and weary.

Indeed, he was tired. He probably hadn’t slept much in the last three days.

Ethel didn’t know what happened while she was asleep, but whenever she woke up, he always seemed to be awake.

After thinking for a bit, curiosity made her question, "Milty, will Uncle be angry about us doing this?"

Ever since patients had started appearing in the Capital, Milton had led her around finding runaway patients to bring to the hospital, thus rescuing many from getting bitten.

She enjoyed the feeling of chivalry, but at the same time, she feared the wrath of Milton’s father finding out.

Not that she was afraid of him, but rather she was worried that any dispute between the two of them would upset Milton.

Anyone who gets humiliated by their father would be upset, wouldn’t they?

Subconsciously, she thought that Milton’s father wouldn’t approve of what they were doing.

Milton didn’t answer her question, but asked, "How many times has he appeared recently?"

Ethel hesitated, then said, "Three times. Each time, he leaves after you come back."

The "he" to which they both referred was his alternate personality.

She pursed her lips and said, "Milty, I think that person is really scary, so cold and stark. He seems to hate me too. He only orders me around, he’s mean, and he doesn’t save people. He even tried to make me watch others getting bitten. Once, I got bitten too. But I’m different from you guys. The virus can’t infect me. I applied some medicine, and I was fine."

"Do you hate him?" The man suddenly asked.
