"Breaking news. We inform all people to remain alert and do not leave the house if it is not necessary. A new type of virus variant has been discovered in the Zewbow district. Where, the figure of a small child infected with the virus turns into a very scary zombie."

Hearing the news, Elissa could only watch while busy cooking wheat.

“There were no signs whatsoever, that was the testimony given by the girl's mother. The girl had looked normal since morning, only feeling a little nauseous and dizzy. Later in the afternoon, the mother went looking for her daughter's whereabouts, and she saw her daughter behind the house, digging up the grave of her beloved dog who had just died, and eating the brain. Hearing the testimony of the girl's mother, now the scientists got new jobs, and the girl was immediately quarantined for research. We hope this is the first case and it has not affected many more people. So, anyone who feels dizzy and nauseous call the emergency number immediately!”

“Ethan! Did you hear that?”

Ethan, who had just entered the house carrying a bottle full of milk from his milk this morning, frowned, luckily the headline of the news still looked real.

"What? Zombie Virus?”

"Yes, and it is said that the first patient was a little girl, she was said to have turned into a zombie because she ate the brain of her beloved dog who had just died and was buried."

"Are they crazy?" Ethan said.

He didn’t believe in zombies, he didn’t believe in Halloween, he only believed that the earth rotated and the sun will remain in its position as long as humans were not nosy. So, how come suddenly in the real world there were zombies? At the time, Ethan himself had only seen zombies in films.

“Perhaps the little girl previously had something called a disorder. And her parents just saw that, everything is possible, right, Elissa? After all, where are there zombies in this world? I really don't believe that there are zombies in this world. In my opinion, zombies are just the imagination of someone who doesn't have enough work."

“Ethan, stop being so arrogant. It's your words and attitude that make everyone annoyed with you."

"I don't care, I don't believe it until the zombie is in front of me for real."

“Ethan, did you see the news on TV?!”

Rafael ran, panting, into Ethan's house.

Ethan was silent then he nodded his head without interest.

"Congratulations, your wish has finally come true."

"What?" Ethan was shocked.

“Yeah, don't you want to be a scientist who changes the world? Now that there is a zombie virus spreading, you can use this opportunity to create a formula to restore the world, Ethan.”

“I don't even believe that the zombie virus exists.”

“If this news is fake, how could a national TV station broadcast it? Come on, what’s wrong with you now? You seem really pessimistic, Ethan.”

Ethan became silent again, there were many feelings flooding his heart. So he felt that maybe there really was a zombie virus? Even at this moment, Ethan still couldn’t believe it.

“Only one person has been infected, Rafael. So I don’t think this can be said to be right or wrong. This is certainly a consideration for me. So I think, if I want to believe it, I have to be at the scene immediately and … I’ll wait to see if tomorrow there are more people infected. If there isn’t one for a week, you can be sure that this is just a lie, and they will have to pay for everything.”

Rafael shook his head too, then he looked at Ethan’s grandmother.

“Look at your friend, his stubbornness is truly extraordinary. I don't even know what kind of person he is. Can't he be a little gentler and realize that the world is not okay?”

“Just leave it be, Elissa. Later, when Ethan wakes up and he has the enthusiasm to find the formula, I will help Ethan. This time he must succeed, Elissa. Because I will be the first person to ask for this formula so that I don't get infected with the zombie virus."

"Do you really trust Ethan that much, Rafael?"

“Yes, I really believe in Ethan, Elissa. Because for me Ethan is the most brilliant human being who has ever existed in the world. So why should I not believe him? I am so amazed and support him wholeheartedly.”

Elissa smiled when she heard Rafael's words, and in the end she nodded too.

“I’m sure you’re very proud of me too, right? But why are you so stubborn and arrogant, Elissa?”

“I just don’t want you to be arrogant. I know that you have become the personal doctor of this villager. However, once again, the formula for this zombie virus is not random, make the slightest mistake and your formula will have bad consequences, you could be jailed or otherwise you will be shot dead, Ethan. That’s my reason why I don’t want you to experience this, because after all, you are not a certified and legitimate scientist. Don’t let the grandson of a wheat farmer be imprisoned because of his too lofty dream of finding a formula to save the world. Of course that is quite impossible.”

"Actually, what Elissa said is quite reasonable, Ethan. The problem is that your educational background is inadequate, and what you are facing is not just humans that you have to heal, but the government and the law. So don't be considered to have done something illegal and then be imprisoned. You understand what I mean, right?”

 “Yes, I understand what you two mean. Thank you for being so considerate, so if I have managed to find the formula, what should I do?”

"You have to register your formula, you have to report and prove to the government that your formula is safe and can be used by humans."

"So like that?"

"Yes, I think the stages are like that, because otherwise maybe everyone would never believe you. This is my suggestion, the advice of a friend who always supports you wholeheartedly, and I really hope that your name will be written on a monument where the monument reflects your intelligence."

"Thank you, I am very honored by everything you have said, including you, Elissa."

“Stop dreaming in broad daylight, young man. Now go to the fields and help me plow the fields. Just staying here and pretending to be busy with strange things will not allow you to eat and earn a lot of money.”

Ethan and Rafael immediately ran outside hearing what Ethan’s grandfather said. However, Rafael seemed silent for a moment, swaying while covering his eyes which were dazzled by the sun.

    It had been a week since the zombie virus appeared, a virus that was thousands of times more disturbing than the previous zombie virus. How could it not be, whoever was infected by this zombie virus, their body will be pale like a corpse. They tend to lose their minds and their only instinct was to eat unnatural food, starting from corpse organs, brains, and even if they don't find 'food' for them in graves. They will search hospitals or even start harming living humans. “This virus is really scary, Ethan. Are you still not sure now and still want to look for proof? Even now people whose relatives have died are starting to worry, afraid that their family's graves will be opened and their bodies will be taken to be eaten by the zombies."Rafael was now sitting with Ethan on the edge of a fairly large field. The wheat seeds began to sprout quite heavily there. “I'm still confused about what is behind this virus spreading? What does this virus reproduce on? I don't understand the theor

    “Rafael, you know. I found so many things I can use for research on my formula.”“What is that, Ethan?”Ethan, who had just come from town, immediately ran to Rafael’s house, because he felt that Rafael was the only person who trusted the most in everything he did. That was why Ethan had great hopes for Rafael, he even hoped that Rafael will give him full support and help him in everything.“I went to town.”“Are you crazy?”“Stop your words. I will tell you briefly before I head to my work chair after this.”“Tell me.” Rafael was quite curious about Ethan’s story.“I went into town earlier, intending to find out what really happened.

    This morning, Ethan opened his eyes. At first he wanted to wake up Rafael so that he would come home. However, before Ethan could do that, he didn’t find Rafael anywhere.“Where is Rafael, is he already going home? He didn’t even wait for me to wake up.”Ethan looked at the clock on the wall, it was already eleven in the afternoon. Of course, one of the reasons that made Rafael go home without telling him was maybe Rafael felt sorry for him.Ethan smiled, then he rubbed his eyes perfectly. “You brat, why is he so reticent like that? He should have woken me the same as usual.”After saying that, Ethan immediately got up from his seat. He took the blanket that had been used by Rafael for several nights. Then Ethan frowned when he saw some purple spots there. Then he glanced at the blood slime that he had originally placed on the table, then had moved onto the shelf and was neatly arranged.“Surely Rafael didn’t spill it on purpose, you brat.”Ethan immediately sprayed germs and bacteria

He has not been here for five days. Even though he himself said he would help me. I want to make sure he’s okay, and I’ll check him with my own eyes.”“Looks like it will

    “Yeah, it’s finally done!” Ethan exclaimed, he felt so enthusiastic because he felt that the formula he had created was completely done.In fact, he deliberately let a plant that was infected with the purple virus live, and when Ethan gave it the formula, the plant immediately became fresh, even within seconds. In fact, Ethan had tried it on several animals that he made as guinea pigs. Where he injected the zombie virus into several animals. After the virus started to react, Ethan immediately injected the formula. And within seconds his formula has already worked. All the animals immediately returned to normal and were able to do their normal activities.Of course, Ethan had also made observations, he held the plants and animals for three days, to make sure that the living things were completely healed.

    Ethan frowned perfectly, he saw a hole on the right side of the iron wire that was electrified. If he could climb higher and break in, then Ethan was confident he could break in and do his mission. Ethan knew that this was quite risky, but he believed that success was coupled with all the risks involved.Ethan immediately crawled up, then crawled into a hole that was only wide enough for him. Luckily Ethan was small, then he plugged the hole and he made a perfect descent into town. Ethan glanced at the CCTV beside him, he immediately closed the plastic on the CCTV then he ran away.Ethan didn’t dare to make a fuss, he just wanted to lure one human zombie to be used as a test figure. He tried to turn his head to see if there was a zombie he could use. But alas, the human smell seemed to attract their attention.Compactly, the zombies kept banging on the iron wall in front of them.“I’m dead.”“Food!”Ethan ran as hard as he could when the zombies chased him, he never thought that he wo

Aren't you two the ones who went to town to sell our crops? If you are normal and not infected with the virus, then how could Rafael become such a terrible zombie, this doesn't make any sense at all. If one of you is infected with the virus, you should both feel it.

The whole world already knows this truth and they have nothing they can do. And I'm so sure that they won't dare touch you now.

    "So I want to warn you once again, we admit that the formula problem is still not perfect, but you should think that there is not a single formula that is not dangerous. All medicines consumed by humans all contain chemical elements and of course if they are used with In the long term, they will definitely have a bad impact on the human body. Therefore, all the doses that I gave to the formula are also very appropriate and now the government has also started looking for a solution to all this and also some vitamin injections to reduce the risks so I don't think you have the right to protest and also think about this Wrong, we are both working and researching how the formula works so stop carrying out actions that can be said to be very terrible.

    Ethan then stood up and put the formula sample on the table. The look on his face was so very annoyed that he didn't even think that this would actually happen. Ethan then looked at the figure in front of him and then smiled wryly, Ethan was still trying to act nice, even though this man was a woman who was very skilled and had even played a play that was so real and perfect. Even though all this time, Ethan would never have thought to this extent that Mr. Frederik had indeed killed and also committed such a very evil act, but what could it be like, the man still felt that he was the most correct figure and not can be blamed by anyone and is very stubborn to even think that he is a suspect in a murder crime that is so terrible and has been planned some time ago. Shouldn't the threat of this punishment be life imprisonment or the death penalty? Ethan took a deep breath, he was confused about what to do now until in the end he wanted to do it so roughly, his mind was too complicated to

So you still try to be stubborn and say that this is something you don't know or even that this is something that is very, very bad and so on?
