The cars stopped at the empty field in the village.
There were four military cars altogether. One of the cars contained women and children, one contained supplies, and the other two were for the men in camouflage.
They kept their promise and gave some supplies to Ming Shu.
âMister Dai, you all can use the houses on this side, however...â Huang Zheng pointed to the other side of the village. âBe careful. Do not walk around carelessly.â
The leader of the men had already introduced himself just now.
âWhy?â Dai Zhi asked curiously, âWe saw zombies outside the village just now and they knew how to use guns. Why didnât we see any inside this village?â
He wanted to have more information about those zombies that knew how to use guns.
Huang Zheng didnât change his expression at all. âThat is because you all are unlucky and met zombies that had evolved to demons.â
Dai Zhi: â...â
Huang Zheng packed the supplies and walked toward a small three-story villa.
This village was not backwards at all. Almost all the households were small villas.
The girl that let them in just now was sitting on the balcony on the second floor and staring at them.
Dai Zhi moved. She was not looking at him...
What was she looking at?
Huang Zheng placed the supplies at the side. Ming Shu came in from the balcony. âWe will do something big tonight.â
Hao Zi suddenly shivered. âYou, you, you... you want to kill them?â
Ming Shu: â...â
What misunderstanding do you all have toward me? Have I killed anyone before? Shallow!
âWhat do you want from them?â Su Tai was brief and to the point.
âThere is a woman in the car. Letâs go and snatch her.â The scholar is indeed smarter.
âPfft...â
âWhy are you snatching a woman. You should snatch a man,â Huang Zheng said seriously.
Ming Shu gave a mysterious smile. âThat woman has good food on her.â
â...â You can tell that she has good food from so far away? Do you have a dogâs nose!!
âI am just informing you all. I am not putting my hopes on you to help anyway.â Ming Shu waved her hand.
â...â Why was she suddenly giving them the cold-shoulder?
She lay on the sofa and smiled like a flower. âLittle Brother Su, are you going to cook?â
Su Tai: â...â
âWomen are scary. When they want to eat, they call âlittle brother.â When they donât, they just say âhey you.ââ Hao Zi pinched his nose and imitated Ming Shu. âLittle Brother Su.â
Su Tai punched Hao Zi and then went into the kitchen.
He didnât touch the supplies that Huang Zheng brought over. He used their own supplies and made a pot of meat porridge.
Knock knock...
Someone knocked on the door. The people drinking the porridge looked at each other. Huang Zheng put down his chopsticks and looked down from the balcony.
The sky was already dark so he could only see a person standing below. It was a woman.
âWhatâs up?â
The woman didnât expect the voice to come from above her. She looked up in a hurry. âDo... do you all, I... I want to ask you if... if you all have antipyretic medicine? We... we can use... supplies to exchange.â
The medicine that they got from Ming Shu was still with them. Huang Zheng went down and gave it to the woman.
The woman had many things on her.
Although medicine was precious, it was not worth it to exchange so many things for it.
The woman exchanged for the medicine in a flurry and then ran toward the house opposite.
âThese people are weird.â Huang Zheng came back. âSupplies are so precious but they donât seem to care at all.â
âMaybe they donât lack supplies.â Ming Shu put down her clean bowl. âWhy do you all care so much about this?â
Huang Zheng looked through the supplies that the woman gave them. âThese things are not easy to store, either.â
Most people would choose to consume things that were not easy to keep.
Su Tai said, âLetâs not touch these things first.â
Huang Zheng agreed.
They brought back quite a lot of things using the zombies last time. They didnât lack any supplies for now.
âIf you are not the person running the household, you will not know how expensive food is.â
Ming Shu suddenly said this.
If it wasnât for the fact that Su Tai knows how to cook, I would not share my food with these little demons.
The three people: â...â
You are a zombie. Is it right for you to eat human food!!
Where is your dignity as a zombie!!
You must be a fake zombie!!
â
At nightfall...
Su Tai looked at the zombie who said that she wanted to do something big. She was lying on the sofa and sleeping like a pig. The colorful riceball lay beside her.
He shook his head and walked to the balcony. He glanced outside.
There was only one building lit up. It was the small villa that those people were staying in.
There were people guarding outside. From his position, he could see the first floor. It was filled with men wearing camouflage.
They were in groups of twos and threes.
Su Tai lowered the curtain and kicked Hao Zi, who was sleeping with his mouth open. âBe more alert tonight.â
Hao Zi muttered in a daze, âWe have Xia Weiâs zombies, right?â
âSheâs fine, but did she promise to protect you?â Huang Zheng continued the conversation. âThis person is not as nice as you think she is.â
Although the zombie king was always smiling and seemed really easy to talk to, it was her nature to be cold-blooded.
She was never a busybody and never had much kindness.
The only thing that she cared about was supplies.
Hao Zi woke up in an instant. He was not sleepy anymore.
He rubbed his face. âDidnât she say that she wanted to do something big? Why is she still sleeping?â
âThere is still a lot of time before midnight. We will not go now.â Huang Zheng looked at him with disdain. âHao Zi, I wonder how you managed to enter our university?â
Hao Zi said blatantly, âI bought my way in.â
â...â
As expected, Ming Shu slept all the way till midnight. Then, she sat at the side and ate some food for a while before regaining all her strength. She stood up.
âHow are you planning to save her?â Su Tai asked her.
Ming Shu grabbed Little Beastie and went down. Her tone was lighthearted. âBy knocking on the door. I am a polite zombie.â
Female protagonist, here I come to save you!!
1Wait for me!!
Ming Shu ran down the stairs. There was no light below. Just as Ming Shu reached the bottom of the stairs, she heard a soft sound coming from outside.
She stopped in her tracks.
She could hear faint footsteps outside and then, someone knocked on their door.
Ming Shu looked into the dark. Su Tai and the rest of them heard the knock on the door and looked down the stairs together.
Didnât she say that she would knock on other peopleâs door?
Why was she knocking on theirs?
However, when they saw that Ming Shu was still at the bottom of the stairs, they exchanged glances with one another.
Ming Shu put Little Beastie into her pocket and paused for a few seconds before opening the door.
The person that knocked was a man in camouflage. There was a flashlight in his hand and he shone it in the room. âOne of our children went missing. Did you see him?â
âProbably eaten by a zombie.â
The man in camouflage: â...â
He flashed the light at Ming Shu.
âWe donât have any children here.â Huang Zheng came down as a representative and prevented Ming Shu from saying anything scarier.
The other party looked at Ming Shu with a puzzled expression.
Ming Shu smiled and looked at him. âI want to go over and visit you all. Is that okay?â
âHuh?â
Ming Shu had already walked out the door.
âHey, you...â The man could not be bothered with looking into the house anymore. He chased after Ming Shu. âWhat are you doing?â
