My Girlfriend is a Zombie

As the Youth shifted his gaze away, a faint breath was heard from behind the pitch-black window.

“That was close…”

Ling Mo’s Zombie Puppet was pressed tightly against one side of the window, sneaking a glance outside from the corner of his eye. From his vantage point, he could barely see a few figures standing alert on the road, while the other Team Members of the Destruction were nowhere to be seen.

“Have they already come inside?” Ling Mo thought to himself.

Old Zheng and the others’ descriptions were not exaggerated at all; in fact, they were somewhat understated.

Only Ling Mo knew for certain that this Youth’s Sensing Ability was the strongest he had ever encountered!

He had barely even peeked out when he sensed mental energy locking onto him. If it weren’t for the fact that he, as a Zombie, quickly concealed his aura, he might have already been discovered. And when the other party looked up, he had already completely hidden himself. Yet even so, he felt his heart race… At that moment when the other party looked over, it was as if their gaze had turned into something tangible, piercing straight through the wall…

Sharp! Intense!

And as of now, the only thing that could give him a similar feeling was the psychic tentacle he possessed himself…

However, the tentacle wasn’t a true psychic superpower. Its function was only to convert mental energy for control into an attack form, and its sensing ability wasn’t particularly outstanding.

“Moreover… this person wasn’t even in a near-death state, yet when he used his power, it still gave me a similar sensation… Additionally, from just that one glance, it’s impossible to determine what type of power he has. For now, the only type I can rule out is the hallucinatory type…”

As Ling Mo stepped out of the door, a flurry of footsteps echoed from the stairwell.

“Since you’re looking for me, I might as well say hello first.”

The feeling Ling Mo had just experienced actually stirred a hint of anticipation within him… He was very eager to know how he measured up against this elite, carefully cultivated by a large Camp. Without the help of Ye Lian and the others, could the psychic superpowers he had developed on his own stand up to this person in a confrontation…

“You guys head upstairs. I’ll check this floor myself,” a calm male voice soon echoed from the stairwell.

No sooner had the words been spoken, three figures turned into the Corridor.

Leading the way was the Youth, followed by two Team Members of the Destruction. Their pace was not particularly fast, with the Youth’s companions cautiously holding their guns, carefully approaching each door as they slowly made their way forward.

Although it might take a bit longer for three people to inspect a floor, the delay would be no more than five or six minutes…

At this rate, they would catch up with Ling Mo and his group in ten minutes…

From the moment he entered the Corridor, the Youth’s gaze remained fixed on the window area.

Although he didn’t sense anything, he had already noted the momentary discomfort. However, upon arriving here, he didn’t rush to move closer.

“Whether or not there’s an issue here, it’s always best to be cautious…” the Youth thought quietly. This level of caution had kept him alive until now, and he certainly wouldn’t abandon it at this point.

“I didn’t really believe it when they said they hadn’t left… But now, it seems necessary to consider this possibility…”

“Vice Captain Xie, there are some people here who are alive, but they can’t wake up…”

“There’s someone here too… whoever acted controlled their force perfectly…”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The two Team Members quickly found several survivors. The Youth nodded and said, “Understood. Leave them where they are. This town is essentially free of Zombies, so their lives won’t be in danger. Keep searching…” ℞𝖆

“Wait a moment, there’s someone here who’s awake, maybe awakened by the explosion, but hasn’t fully recovered yet…” one Team Member suddenly remarked.

“Try to get him to wake up,” the Youth said.

As soon as the person was propped up, a splash of cold water hit his face, and a strong pressure on his philtrum immediately caused him to open his eyes.

The moment he regained consciousness, he involuntarily trembled and cried out, “Please… don’t kill me! I… I’m from the explosive ordnance disposal team!”

“Hey, calm down!” the Team Member snapped with a stern face.

The bald guy shouted a couple more times before gradually calming down. With lingering fear, he glanced at the three of them, swallowed hard, and stammered, “Who… who are you?”

“Seventh Team,” the Team Member replied coolly.

“So, I’m not dead yet…” The bald guy managed a faint smile but quickly fell silent, raising his hand to point ahead, “Where… where’s Team Leader Zhang? I clearly saw him get knocked out before me…”

“When did this happen?” the Youth asked.

The bald guy looked dazed for a moment, then immediately glanced at his wrist, “About… about ten minutes ago… I’m not exactly sure.”

“Who knocked you out? And who is this Team Leader Zhang?” the Youth inquired further.

The bald guy’s face turned pale once more, but he forced himself to remain calm, “I… I didn’t see clearly. The person was too fast. All I know is that it was a woman… She appeared right in front of Team Leader Zhang, and then he shouted, ‘I’m from the explosive ordnance disposal team, I can help you, don’t kill me…’ and then… then he got knocked out, and next it was my turn…”

“Where did he go then?” the Youth’s eyes flickered. This information was crucial to him and was the main reason he chose to check here first. Even if this person hadn’t woken up, he would have found a way to awaken a few others to ask some questions.

What he didn’t know was that this was also why Ling Mo had sent the Zombie Puppet here…

“I don’t know…” the bald guy replied, bewildered.

“Vice Captain Xie, could it be that the person ran off after waking up?” the Team Member asked, frowning.

The bald guy forced an awkward smile and said, “No, Team Leader Zhang is really timid, and he only knows how to handle bombs. He wouldn’t dare run off on his own… But… but then again, maybe he hid outside…”

“It’s also possible he was knocked out and taken away,” the Youth suddenly suggested.

Although there were signs of an explosion here, the main structure of the building remained intact. Given the nature of the Glasses Man, there’s no way he would let it play out this way. The only plausible explanation was that Ling Mo and his group had acquired the skills to disarm explosives…

However, the Youth couldn’t figure out how they had done it. As far as he knew, the Members of the explosive ordnance disposal team were unaware of where the explosives were set…

“Although the Glasses Man’s abilities aren’t particularly strong, he’s cautious enough that knocking someone out would be the only way to evade his probe…” With limited information, the Youth could only analyze the situation this way.

“Since you’re here, I… I feel more at ease,” the bald guy said, forcing a smile. However, his uneasy eyes revealed that the sight of the woman had left a significant impact on him…

The Team Member supporting the bald guy looked up at the Youth, subtly nodding before suddenly letting out a cold laugh. “You just said you’re part of the explosive ordnance disposal team, what do you mean by that?” he asked.

“What… what do you mean…” The bald guy stammered, his expression turning somewhat guilty. “N-nothing, I just… I wasn’t fully conscious at the time…”

“Is that so?” The Team Member gave him a mocking glance, his eyes suddenly narrowing.

Thud!

A soft sound accompanied the bald guy’s eyes widening in disbelief as he stared at the Team Member, then shifted his gaze toward the Youth.

The Team Member pulled the dagger back with a decisive motion and let go of the bald guy’s arm.

Thud!

The bald guy fell back to the ground. One hand reached weakly toward his chest, but ultimately it was only a futile movement as he lay there motionless, eyes wide open.

The Team Member wiped the blade clean on a nearby sofa, casting a disdainful glance at the corpse before turning to look at the other two unconscious people in the room. “Did they leave these people here as a warning?” he asked.

“Who knows…” the other Team Member replied coldly.

“Alright, let’s leave them for now. It doesn’t seem like we’ll get any more information from this room. As for the bald guy, let’s count him among Ling Mo’s doings,” the Youth said, brushing off his sleeve as if to remove nonexistent bloodstains, then walked out without looking back.
