My Girlfriend is a Zombie - Chapter 1271: Heartless Humans
With the Progenitor Zombie’s corpse as cover, Ling Mo and his group quickly left the sanatorium without encountering much resistance.
However, listening to the increasingly distant, massive scraping sounds from behind, everyone looked a bit shaken. Just how many Zombies had this bizarre Progenitor developed in this town…
Now that it was dead, all the Zombies in the city were swarming over to fight the landlord and divide the land. And to think, it was all its own doing… If it hadn’t used that method of forcibly driving prey into its own lair, gathering most of the Zombies together in advance, there wouldn’t be such a grand, city-wide corpse-dividing spectacle now…
“I’m afraid it won’t be long before a large number of advanced or even higher-level Zombies evolve here…” Xia Na glanced back and said, “But by then, it won’t have anything to do with us. Still, just thinking about the earth-shattering changes about to happen in this town, I can’t help feeling a bit emotional…”
Li Yalin nodded, then asked softly, “What does it mean to feel emotional…”
Ling Mo also showed a thoughtful look, then lowered his head and weighed the mother hive that had appeared in his pocket.
Although the evolution direction of that Progenitor was truly bizarre… before leaving, Ling Mo still secretly dug out this thing. Unexpectedly, although the Progenitor looked like that on the outside, the mother hive wasn’t much different from that of an ordinary Progenitor Zombie.
But no matter what, he wouldn’t give this thing to Ye Lian and the others… Ling Mo would keep it for another use…
At that moment, Xu Shuhan, who was walking at the back, suddenly turned to look behind a few times, then asked in a low voice, somewhat uneasily, “Did you guys feel that?”
Xia Na immediately stopped and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Xu Shuhan frowned, a bit uncertain, and said, “I just feel… like something is following us…”
“Really?” Xia Na also looked in the direction of her gaze, then said, “I don’t see anything right now…”
Xu Shuhan immediately showed a hint of doubt, but after glancing at Xia Na, she still replied uncertainly, “Then… maybe I was mistaken…”
After mutation, she also knew that Zombies couldn’t lie… But what she didn’t notice was that after Xia Na finished speaking to her, she playfully winked at Ling Mo…
Not noticing now doesn’t mean it wasn’t there just now!
“Phew… it’s really not easy.” Ling Mo let out a soft breath, but secretly showed a slight smile. No one else noticed that during Xia Na and Xu Shuhan’s conversation, his face had turned a bit paler…
If nothing unexpected happens, this is probably his real trump card… Ling Mo pressed his pocket, thinking to himself.
Meanwhile, in another corner of the town.
Ban Yue looked at the mutation panda Xiao Bai, then at Pear, and asked with a conflicted face, “Say that again? That human wants us to go take care of what, exactly?”
Before Pear could answer, she slapped the unconscious Dan Chun: “How did we end up as nannies! This is so infuriating!”
Dan Chun twitched, but her eyes remained tightly shut. She probably never imagined she’d be used as a punching bag, and by Ban Yue, who had always “pitied” her before…
Zombies really have no concept of sympathy!
Pear thought for a moment and said, “Actually, I think… it’s more like being a feeder… Yeah, that’s it.”
“Is that really the point you should be arguing!” Ban Yue said.
“But we don’t have a choice… At least my left side has already compromised.” Pear raised her right hand, indicating her helplessness.
The two Female Zombies silently looked at each other for a while, then both lowered their heads…
Sigh…
Heartless humans!
…
The meeting place Zhang She mentioned wasn’t actually that far from the sanatorium in a straight line. But walking along the road, it still took about half an hour.
On the way, Ling Mo asked for some more details…
“Wang, did he set a specific time with you?”
At this point, Zhang She had already adopted a tell-all attitude… After learning that Ling Mo still needed him to act, he was obviously much more at ease. But more likely, he had expected this outcome from the start. When he made contact with Chief of Staff Wang, he must have set up some kind of code. Without him, the meeting couldn’t succeed.
But Ling Mo had no intention of pursuing this… Such things were meaningless to him.
“Time… he really didn’t say. He just told me to wait there after the job was done. He’d come as soon as possible,” Zhang She said.
“And you weren’t anxious?” This time it was Yuwen Xuan asking. He was now completely calm, but when talking to Zhang She, the crazy look on his face disappeared, replaced by a cold demeanor.
At this moment, he actually had a bit of the Base Boss’s aura. Zhang She glanced at him and replied, “Anxious, but not really. If I compare, I actually prefer not having a time limit. So… this condition is acceptable to me. If I complete the task, I’ll leave a mark at the meeting place so he can see it from afar.”
“I see…” Ling Mo nodded. Zhang She had taken the initiative to say this, so he clearly knew what Ling Mo really wanted to know.
“After we arrive, we might have a few days to prepare. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure the agreed-upon mark is prepared perfectly.” Zhang She wiped his half-dried nosebleed, then looked at Ling Mo with a half-smile and said, “I wouldn’t risk my own life as a joke.”
Ling Mo met his gaze and also smiled slightly: “That’s for the best.”
It seemed Zhang She knew very well that the most dangerous moment for him in this whole process would be when he stood up to act in front of Chief of Staff Wang… At that time, he would seem to be within reach of safety, but in fact, Ling Mo and his group’s eyes would be fixed on him…
Fang Zhou understood this too… But compared to Zhang She’s calmness, he was much more nervous…
For some reason, he started recalling some things Ling Mo had said… The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his own failure and capture seemed to have been planned… at least as part of a plan…
If that’s the case, then what role did he actually play in Ling Mo’s plan…
