00:03Oh my god, something's wrong at Pinnacle Hospital. There are police and doctors everywhere.
00:09Is there a confirmed case?
00:16Emily, I was just about to reply to you, but the post vanished. I didn't delete it.
00:19I don't know if it's a confirmed case, but there are special police. It's terrifying.
00:22Is your lease almost up? Do you want to renew it?
00:26Emily, graduation season is coming up soon and apartments will be in short supply.
00:30Decide quickly if you want it or new, and I can give you a discount.
00:54The city will be locked down at 8 a.m. tomorrow.
00:56Get out if you can. Stock up on supplies until your place is full.
01:09There's an emergency at home. I need to take leave.
01:11Okay, Emily, go on home. Take a week off.
01:20Dad, drive back to City Q right now. I'm coming home today.
01:23Honey, what's going on?
01:25I'll explain everything as soon as I get out of the car.
01:27Where are you now?
01:38Mom, send me the address of our new place.
01:40Leave work now. I'll be home this afternoon.
02:01Miss, are you sure you want this much stuff?
02:03Positive. Please deliver it as soon as possible. Thank you.
02:11What was wrong with that biter in the video?
02:14A huge metropolis with tens of millions of people, a major transportation hubbit,
02:18locking down just like that?
02:20Why run away from the most important economic and cultural center unless it's already out of control?
02:25What is happening to this world?
02:33What's wrong, honey? What happened?
02:34Sweetie, does this have something to do with you coming home suddenly?
02:38I don't know exactly what's going on, but I know it's serious.
02:40The city is locking down at 8 a.m. tomorrow.
02:43Someone warned me to leave right away and stock up on supplies.
02:45I'm so scared. Please believe me, Mom and Dad.
02:47We really need to buy enough to last at least a year.
02:50Don't be afraid. Mom and Dad have your back, always.
02:53Who would we trust if not you?
02:56I don't know. Stocking up, right?
02:57Don't wait for my cooking today. I'm heading to the wholesale market first.
03:00Send me the list of what you ordered, baby. I'll check what you're missing and fill in the gaps.
03:09Our family will be fine. Stop panicking.
03:12Pack your things properly and head to the airport.
03:14I already placed an order for a batch of supplies.
03:16To avoid drawing attention, I had them delivered to the B1 parking garage around 8 p.m.
03:19When you could be upstairs, be careful not to run into anyone.
03:21Okay, don't worry, sweetie.
03:23Mom will never let anything happen to you.
03:52I don't know.
04:17I don't know.
04:32I have to face it.
04:34This is already the last train to the airport.
04:56It's passable now.
05:13Hi, Mom. It's me.
05:15Honey, Mom's busy here.
05:16I just ordered 200 pounds of pork, 100 pounds of beans, 100 pounds of lamb, four whole chickens.
05:21Still need chicken wings and drum hocks.
05:22Is there anything else you want?
05:23Mom, you're incredible.
05:25Listen, remember to buy a solar generator, batteries, and a few more refrigerators.
05:30I'll search for the rest.
05:38Attention all passengers bound for City Q.
05:42This flight is about to depart.
05:51Hold on.
05:52If I throw up now, everyone will notice.
06:22I'll search for the rest.
06:32Honey, we can't go home yet.
06:34We need to finish buying everything first.
06:36Starting tomorrow, we won't go out at all.
06:44We're out of stock.
06:46Installation can't be done for three days.
06:48What if we pay extra?
06:50I'll head over to your place and install them right now.
07:04Mom, when will you be back?
07:06My girl's calling.
07:07I'll head home now.
07:09I couldn't bargain down the price for these clothes.
07:11I'll check the underground market tomorrow.
07:13Oh my God.
07:14Fine.
07:15You win.
07:16Take it at this price.
07:17Mom, when will the meat and solar generators you bought be delivered?
07:19The wholesale market will deliver the meat pre-stored in refrigerators.
07:22The fridge shop and meat vendor are run by the same family.
07:24The solar generators have already arrived.
07:26I had them left outside room 1502.
07:28That apartment's unfinished.
07:29No one will notice.
07:30I stash the rest in the 24th stairwell.
07:32Hardly anyone climbs that high and no one lives above the 20th floor.
07:43Mineral water, toilet rolls, self-heating hot pots, lime storage barrels, rainwater collectors,
07:50rubbing alcohol, everything's here.
08:21Mineral water, toilet rolls, everything's here.
08:36I'm keeping the four hens on the enclosed balcony off the kitchen.
08:40Soundproof cotton has been installed everywhere, so no clacking can be heard outside.
08:58What was that?
09:00What was that?
09:10Oh, my God.
09:46Movies are just movies.
09:47I can't judge these creatures downstairs based on fictitional stories.
09:51The person who was brutally attacked this morning has now turned into one of them.
09:55Judging from this, the virus spreads through saliva and blood.
09:57Right now, these zombies seem mindless, wandering aimlessly in circles.
10:01After that sick man vomited earlier, they were drawn to the smell and swarmed around Building
10:0610 where he lives.
10:08That means they hunt relying on hearing and smell.
10:11Honey, let's get some sleep.
10:13We were completely worn out last night.
10:18What's happening?
10:19It's so dark.
10:21Damn it.
10:22The stench of rotten iron is thick enough to choke on.
10:27I remember these eyes.
10:29I saw them at the airport in City B one day ago.
10:33Sweetie, you're having a nightmare.
10:35Wake up.
10:38You have a fever, baby.
10:41Take this medicine and you'll feel better.
10:53The number of zombies between Building 10 and Building 12 hasn't changed.
10:58Still 11.
10:58It means there are likely no new infected in our community.
11:03I have no idea what sustains them.
11:05They seem to need no food or energy besides human flesh.
11:10Stray cats in the yard hold no interest for them.
11:13They fear no daylight.
11:15And will lunge and bite and blindly at any sound.
11:19Proving their hearing is extremely sharp.
11:28Dad, come quick!
11:37Dad, should we help him?
11:43Help might come for us soon.
11:47I think we can give him something.
11:50Just not too much.
11:52That makes sense.
11:55Two packs of compressed biscuits and two chocolate bars.
12:01But how?
12:02The distance between our building and Building 14 is nearly 50 meters.
12:06We can't throw it that far.
12:08There's no way we'd risk our lives to deliver it.
12:23No!
12:25No!
12:51I don't know.
13:01Oh, my God.
13:03It's horrifying.
13:17Sweetie, what's wrong?
13:19Mom, Dad, that man downstairs?
13:20He's the one from apartment 1602, building 14.
13:23The neighbor gave him two packs of instant noodles today.
13:25So the victim was that kind Linju.
13:28They may didn't first downlam her supplies.
13:30We might have been the ones killed tonight.
13:32In this world, even kindness can get you killed.
13:36All right.
13:37Honey, go back to your room and rest.
13:39Margaret, you take over the night watch.
13:41I'll reinforce our fire north, our fire door with extra defenses.
13:57Who says being trapped indoors means we're just waiting to die?
14:15Damn you.
14:17Just you wait.
14:18I'll make you pay.
14:30The dying woman's last words played in my mind.
14:33She mouthed one thing to me.
14:35Run.
14:52You hear me?
14:53You hear me?
14:54You hear me?
14:54Don't pull.
15:07I'll let him.
15:11Let's go.
15:12Let's go.
15:14Let's go.
15:16Let's go.
15:18Let's go.
15:22Come on.
15:23Let's go.
15:50Sweetie, was what you did today truly foolproof?
15:55Of course.
15:56I'm not reckless.
15:57I'd never gamble with my own life.
15:59Deep down, I knew the plan was full of flaws.
16:01If the zombies had caught me before I got in the elevator,
16:03or if that man downstairs had noticed the changing floor numbers and grown suspicious,
16:07I would be dead a hundred times over.
16:09My plan came with high rewards, but equally high risks.
16:12That was why I never let my parents get involved.
16:14Do you think your father and I are weak, hiding behind you, waiting to be protected?
16:19Watching your child take dangerous risks just to keep the family safe is the cruelest thing a parent can endure.
16:23Have you ever thought?
16:25Two people begged for supplies that day.
16:27Where is the other one?
16:28Could he be hiding on the 14th floor, waiting to ambush you?
16:31I never considered that.
16:35Baby, beyond being your family, you need to learn to trust and cooperate with others.
16:41We are not burdens.
16:42We survive this together.
16:50Thirteen people went out to search for supplies, but only five actually made it back.
16:56A severe two-day rainstorm hit one night in September.
16:59It completely submerged the first floor, and put the second floor in imminent danger.
17:07Will the buildings collapse after being soaked in rainwater for so long?
17:11It's unlikely.
17:12Flooding mostly shortens a building's lifespan, not bring it down at once.
17:16First floor downsides here.
17:21Look!
17:33Ha ha ha ha ha!
17:50I can't help feel like the zombies are watching them the supplies they brought back this only
17:57enough for one person survived three days I reckon they'll have to go out for more
18:01but I heard the streets are flooded with them
18:37damn it the thick sickening stench of blood hangs in the air and I feel like I'm drowning in it
18:47oh my god it's an intelligent variant the zombies downstairs have evolved and they've spawned a
18:53leader this is terrible will we even survive don't be afraid my love as long as we stay together as
18:59a
18:59family we'll get through anything based on everything I observed I've categorized them as
19:02stage one stage two and stage three stage one zombies are the mindless ones from the early
19:06days of the apocalypse stage two are the evolved ones that hunted the survivors today enhanced
19:11physical ability with basic primitive intelligence stage three are the intelligent overlords that
19:15can command the horde even capable of showing primitive emotion evolution is only accelerating
19:20if we don't stop them soon there will surely be stage four stage five and beyond this is
19:25catastrophic we've lost all contact with the government we have no idea what has become of
19:29the outside world we held our breath until the last zombie left the neighborhood finally able to
19:34relax yet overwhelming loneliness washed over me the world had grown deathly quiet leaving only the
19:40three of us alive you've been down lately go tend to the plants to clear your head it feels as
19:45if
19:45I'm nurturing the last hope for humanity some of the potatoes we stockpiled long ago have sprouted
19:51I plant them alongside the new vegetables I cut out the sprouting the buds then bury them in soil
19:57filled water bottles once leaves grow in I dig up the rooted spruits and transplant them into large
20:02cardboard boxes alongside the other healthy seedlings I fertilize the crops every 20 days
20:08I snip off all beating flowers to stop the plants for wasting nutrients and withering
20:16even on such a sacred holiday we can only celebrate in the simplest saddest way how much longer must
20:25we endure this cursed world I never cared for Christmas pudding I wouldn't take a single bite last
20:32Christmas this year is different though every ingredient feels incredibly precious it has been six months
20:39since the zombie outbreak and we treasure every scrape of food more than ever before
21:10I have a bad feeling the zombies are evolving again with explosions this massive could the military have arrived
21:43it seems cruelty has become their pastime in this broken world with their endless looting the last traces of
21:49ordinary survivors in this community are being erased my fingers go numb I barely have time to mourn
21:54the dead at this rate we'll be next by tomorrow once they find the locked stair hall door there will
21:58be no
21:58way out for us to stay hidden we can only survive on compressed biscuits today no fireplace no fire at
22:08all
22:08outsiders clearly know how to fight the undead they carry no fear living carefree in the apocalypse
22:14compared their recklessness our small family is trapped in heavy suffocating dread I run through
22:19every possible plan in my head yet none seem enough to keep us safe I refuse to die like this
22:31stay safe sweetie I will dad
22:40you
22:47you
22:48you
22:50you
23:15Thank goodness, it still works.
23:32It only has a flight time of 23 minutes, we have to turn back after 7 kilometers.
23:47The zombie horde didn't come. My plan failed.
23:52It's alright. We'll figure out another way.
23:54I'd hope the noise from the drone would lure the evolved zombies from the city center into our community.
23:58They would fight the intruders, buying us time to find a way to survive.
24:01But I drew nothing. Every one of my guesses was wrong.
24:03The drone needs four hours to fully charge. We can't fly it again until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
24:07By then, the intruders will have started searching the buildings. It will be too late.
24:19What I feared has finally come.
24:28Honey, your nose is bleeding.
24:38Have some chocolate. Sweets are said to boost dopamine and calm you down.
24:47I'll try one last time. This is my final gamble. Our last struggle before everything ends.
25:21It seems the three of us are the last circumstances.
25:23The three of us are the only surviving people left in City Q.
25:31Just stay here forever.
25:51We're saved.
25:53We're saved.
25:56We're saved.
26:02I don't know.
26:34I still can't believe it.
26:37Are we truly safe now?
26:38The zombie outbreak was a global catastrophe, and our nation was among the worst hit regions.
26:42The government has exhausted every resource on rescue and containment.
26:45Here in Q City, we have eliminated the last remaining undead.
26:48Only three major cities nationwide still await full clearance.
26:51We must accept the heavy consequences this disaster has left behind.
26:55Restoring public trust will not happen overnight.
26:58The explosions you heard in the night were part of Operation PICU, a joint campaign between military and civilian task
27:04forces.
27:05Your drone drew no response from the undead for one simple reason.
27:09There were no zombies left in Q City.
27:11For half a year, this city has been nothing but an empty dead zone.
27:15Temporary safe havens have been established in every provincial capital.
27:18Most survivors have already been relocated there.
27:21Your community lies far from the city's center and was newly developed, so rescue notifications were delayed.
27:26Thermal scans from military drones mark this area as completely uninhabitated.
27:31We are so sorry.
27:34None of this is your fault.
27:36Your drone's low-altitude patrols caught our attention long ago.
27:39We spotted the shaky blood-written SOS today.
27:42We hesitated, uncertain if it was a genuine plea or an enemy trap.
27:46Refusing to abandon any chance of saving lives,
27:48we tracked the drone back to this complex and waited for the right moment.
27:52I trust you.
27:53I trust it's our country.
28:00Come in.
28:01Warm up with a cup of hot cocoa.
28:06They never imagined anyone could have survived hidden inside this community.
28:11One vicious-looking man fixed me with a cold, vengeful glare.
28:16He may have been plot-rotting retaliation, but none of it mattered anymore.
28:31I hope it heals soon.
28:34Just like all of humanity.
