My Girlfriend is a Zombie - Chapter 530

Chapter 803 – Do You Remember the Word “②”?

Compared to Old Zheng, the man’s thoughts were much simpler. However, they both lacked a sense of humor…

“You know, I’ve thought it through. If this matter were harmful to me, how could you guarantee I would still deliver the message? So I guess I overthought…” the man said honestly.

What he said was truly plain and straightforward. Ling Mo gave an indifferent smile and took a few steps toward the stairwell, then motioned for the man to follow him.

As the two walked away, Old Zheng couldn’t help but show a hint of curiosity, yet he had to pretend to remain calm and stay put. Naturally, he heard nothing but was rather frustrated by the changing expressions on the man’s face.

“What on earth did Ling Mo say!”

…

When Ling Mo and his group returned to the motel, another half an hour had passed.

The sky had completely darkened, and most zombies had become active.

However, with the Phantom map provided by Black Silk, Ling Mo and his group almost effortlessly made their way back.

This scene once again astonished Old Zheng, who couldn’t stop asking Ling Mo questions along the way. Ling Mo, not wasting the opportunity of having a powerful hallucinatory type superhuman at his side, also consulted extensively on matters regarding illusions.

Old Zheng merely thought Ling Mo was curious, little realizing that another pair of “ears” were hidden inside Ling Mo’s mind, and a mysterious Creature was unwittingly learning from him…

Xia Na had been waiting outside the door. Upon hearing footsteps coming up the stairs, she immediately showed a smile. They had been gone for nearly an hour, yet she didn’t know what had happened. Ling Mo had vaguely mentioned a surprise upon his return.

What kind of surprise? Something edible maybe?

But just as she was about to greet them, she suddenly furrowed her brow and wondered, “Why are there four people?”

Ling Mo had gone out chasing after Xu Shuhan, and it was unlikely that Yu Shiran and Xiao Bai would be brought back by him. So, whose footsteps were the two additional sounds?

Before Xia Na could think too much, a figure had already appeared in the corridor. Seeing the person looking around, Xia Na felt a sudden panic.

At this moment, Ling Mo’s voice came from the stairwell, “What are you looking around for? She’s right there.”

“I didn’t see her…” Wang Lin responded, then saw Xia Na standing in the middle of the corridor. Their eyes met, and both stopped in their tracks.

It had been half a year. Xia Na’s hair appeared longer, but her figure didn’t seem to have changed much. However, compared to the Xia Na she had seen back then, this Xia Na seemed quite different now.

Back then, Xia Na’s eyes were vacant, and there was always a sense of distance when she looked at others. But now, as Xia Na gazed at her, Wang Lin clearly felt something different.

Right… it was humanity…

In Xia Na’s gaze, there seemed to be a hint of humanity!

Wang Lin was immediately taken aback.

She had some understanding of Xia Na’s situation, so whenever Xia Na was mentioned, her expression would always seem somewhat peculiar.

When Ling Mo refused to elaborate about Xia Na, she felt a bit disappointed, but wasn’t there also a sense of relief? Deep down, she was vaguely afraid of what the result could be… Just as she was coming up the stairs, she had been quite anxious… Maybe Xia Na would stare at her like a stranger again?

But when she truly laid eyes on Xia Na, she realized all her fears were unfounded.

Xia Na’s situation was completely different from what she had imagined!

Annoying Ling Mo! The first thought that popped into Wang Lin’s mind was this. If Ling Mo had told her earlier, she wouldn’t have been so flustered!

Even so, Wang Lin found it quite difficult to open her mouth. She whispered, “Xia Na?”

The moment she uttered the words, Wang Lin felt her face flush.

Her voice… had it really changed pitch…

Xia Na seemed momentarily stunned, then started walking towards her.

Wang Lin’s heart was suddenly in a knot. She stood there dazed, staring wide-eyed at Xia Na, who was steadily approaching her.

She tried to glean something from Xia Na’s face, but the light was too dim…

Despite her efforts, all she could see was Xia Na’s lustrous complexion and the faint outlines of her features…

Closer… even closer…

When the distance between them was less than five meters, Wang Lin’s vision suddenly blurred, and then she heard Xia Na’s voice by her ear.

“Linlin…”

The simple call was infused with a touch of warmth and a sense of delight.

Wang Lin’s body froze instantly!

This wasn’t just humanity; it was as if she had fully regained her humanity!

She felt a somewhat cold body embrace her, and the smooth strands of hair brushed against her cheek and neck. She could even feel Xia Na’s hand placed at her back, that seemingly soft hand slowly slipping towards her hindbrain and gently caressing her hair.

But none of this could compare to Xia Na’s call. Wang Lin’s nose tingled, and she hugged Xia Na with slightly trembling arms.

She struggled for a moment, then softly said, “Xia Na…”

In the apocalypse, sisters reunited…

But more than that, what truly excited Wang Lin was Xia Na’s “recovery.”

A warm current enveloped Wang Lin, and it was only after two full minutes that she slowly released her.

The two exchanged a glance. Wang Lin hesitated for a moment, trying to find a way to break the ice, and ended up blurting out, “You almost became a widow… oh!”

Suddenly, she received a knock on the head, and looking back, it was Ling Mo.

Ling Mo was staring at her rather unhappily, saying, “Be mindful of your words.”

It was then she noticed the unusual surrounding; the once empty corridor now had several more people.

Ye Lian and Li Yalin were leaning against each other, both gazing at her with slight bewilderment, then simultaneously turning their eyes toward Ling Mo. Another girl, about her age, looked puzzled, probably both guessing her identity and contemplating the meaning of her words…

Old Zheng was offering a cigarette to a man in his thirties, but the man scrutinized him with a questioning gaze, continuously asking, “The Central Region Camp? Where’s that? How did you end up on Niepan’s territory? And how did you run into Ling Mo? What’s the deal with that girl…”

The most surprising thing to her was that there was actually an old man in Ling Mo’s team…

That old man was wearing an apron, donning a pair of black rubber gloves, and standing there with a bloody scalpel in hand…

He was still yelling, “Who! Who’s becoming a widow!”

Wang Lin glanced around and quietly asked, “Why are there so many people with you now?”

“That’s a long story…” Ling Mo replied.

“And what about Xia Na…” Wang Lin continued.

Ling Mo merely gave a slight smile, not intending to provide a detailed explanation.

Instead, Xia Na reached out again to touch the back of Wang Lin’s head, suddenly saying, “The mark is gone…”

At her words, Ling Mo broke into a sweat.

He clearly remembered the “2” on Wang Lin’s head when they parted ways…

Wang Lin hadn’t forgotten it either. She was stunned for a moment and then suddenly charged forward: “What kind of mark was that! Of course, it disappeared after you put it on my head! I almost let you fool me just now. I’m telling you, I came for revenge!”

Unfortunately, her skills were no match for Xia Na’s. The female zombie giggled and slipped past Wang Lin…

“See, I knew it,” Ling Mo remarked philosophically, then turned and called out to Mu Chen, “You don’t need to ask so many questions…”

Mu Chen grudgingly closed his mouth, while Old Zheng couldn’t help but wipe away sweat, feeling as though he’d been granted a reprieve as he said, “Some things I can’t explain either…”

“Just know that they’re also enemies of Niepan.” Ling Mo added.

Old Zheng was immediately overwhelmed with emotion; as if to say, you think all of this happened by accident…

“We’ll be heading out at dawn, so you all should find a room to rest,” Ling Mo said.

Seeing Old Zheng’s slight hesitation, Ling Mo added, “We can talk more on the road if needed.”
