My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Dealing with a cowardly Camp Member seemed like no problem at all for these destructive Members… Even the Youth’s tone was indifferent, only showing a slight change when Ling Mo was mentioned…

“Knowing full well that leaving survivors would expose information, he still did it…” the Youth mused, “Perhaps that’s why his secret was discovered by Chief of Staff Wang? Rather than using their lives to blackmail Yuwen Xuan, Wang is more interested in the secret he carries…”

However, just as he stepped out of the door, the Youth suddenly came to a halt. His gaze slowly swept over the dark, long Corridor, feeling an inexplicable sense of unease…

The Corridor was silent, with not a soul in sight…

That unsettling feeling was suddenly magnified, and he vaguely felt as though there were hidden eyes watching him from the shadows.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Something… doesn’t seem right…” the Youth thought for a moment with his head lowered, then abruptly turned to look at the bald guy’s corpse.

“No, it’s not the corpse that’s strange. His behavior earlier didn’t show any suspicious signs… At least at the moment of his death, I didn’t notice anything wrong. So…”

The real cause of this feeling must be related to some detail associated with it… There’s something he noticed, but didn’t take seriously… It was a vague sense, but once perceived, it became difficult to ignore…

“Bald guy, specialty is as an explosive ordnance disposal team member… It can’t possibly be related to his baldness, so it must be the latter. The explosive ordnance disposal team… Could it be bombs? But only specific places in this building have explosives set up. Even if they were all detonated, it wouldn’t completely destroy this place. Furthermore, from a time perspective, they couldn’t have set up new bombs… So, what is it?”

At that moment, the Youth suddenly froze…

He had figured it out!

“Ah!”

A scream suddenly emerged from behind, sounding bizarre as if it was just issued from the throat and then abruptly cut off… Immediately followed by a thud, and when the Youth hurriedly turned around, another person was lying on the floor of the room.

Blood was gushing out from this person’s abdomen, while another individual standing beside him held a blood-stained dagger. Blood dripped down rapidly, forming a pool at his feet… His face was ashen, and his expression terrified. It took him several seconds to snap out of it, and the dagger dropped from his hand with a clang.

“Vice Captain Xie…” The standing one was the Team Member who just killed the bald guy, and the stabbed one was another member of the destructive team…

The Team Member who acted seemed somewhat unsteady, slowly retreating as his gaze darted back and forth between the fallen comrade and the Youth, nervously saying, “No, I didn’t mean to… I… It wasn’t him that I wanted to kill…” As he explained, his hand slowly reached for his waist.

His forehead was already beaded with cold sweat, and his expression was quite complex. It was an eerie situation, but regardless, he had already killed someone… Although the other person was still convulsing on the floor, the amount of blood lost indicated that survival was impossible…

“Vice Captain Xie, you know I’d never harm a teammate, you know that…” The Team Member’s eyes showed a hint of fierceness, and his hand had already gripped a cold knife handle at his waist… If the Youth refused to believe him, then he would have no choice but to…

“What did you see?” the Youth suddenly asked. In just a few breaths’ time, he had calmed down from his initial shock.

Indeed, that unsettling feeling was no illusion, though he hadn’t expected it to manifest in such a way…

The Team Member raised his head, his peripheral gaze falling on the corpse, as he suddenly took a deep breath, his face turning horrified: “It… it just… moved…”

“Be more specific,” the Youth’s expression seemed to grow somewhat grim…

“As I was about to walk out, I saw him smile at me…” The Team Member’s expression looked as if he’d seen a ghost, and his voice seemed eerie in the darkness… R̃

“I thought I was seeing things, so I casually glanced back. But as soon as I turned my head, I found he was gone… A heart shredded to pieces, yet moving freely-is that even possible?! I was startled, immediately turning towards the door, but to my shock… he appeared behind me! I had just turned and was face-to-face with him… and he was smiling, asking me, ‘What’s wrong with you?’”

The Team Member’s voice began to shake as he continued, “While he was speaking, blood was gushing from his wound and mouth. How could he be alive in that state? So I… acted instinctively! But who would have known… after being stabbed, he turned… into this…” He panted heavily and suddenly shouted, “Vice Captain Xie! I truly didn’t mean it! You have to believe me!”

The Youth looked down at the Team Member lying on the floor, muttering, “No, the problem isn’t with him…” He then looked up at the still shouting Team Member and abruptly interrupted, “You…”

“Who exactly are you?”

…

In the dimly lit room, a metallic scent of blood slowly permeated the air…

With the Youth’s question, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat tense.

The Team Member was taken aback, awkwardly laughing after a while, and asked, “Vice Captain Xie, what do you mean by that? Of course, I am who I am, who else could I be…” Then suddenly, as if realizing something, he said, “Do you think there’s something wrong with me mentally? No, I just… maybe I just had a hallucination…”

“It’s not a hallucination. There’s no residual mental energy here.” The Youth took a slow step forward, his expression turning serious, one hand slowly opening, “The only abnormality, is you…”

The Team Member instantly felt an invisible pressure, causing him to involuntarily step back, saying, “I don’t understand what you mean…”

“More precisely, your thoughts have been altered by something else.” The Youth’s gaze shifted slightly upward, and then he raised his hand, focusing on the Team Member’s head. “In your psychic realm, there’s something foreign…”

He pointed at the Team Member’s forehead, his eyes flashing briefly before turning sharp: “But just that alone isn’t too troublesome…”

“No… Vice Captain Xie…” the Team Member said in terror as he suddenly drew the knife from his waist. He widened his eyes, staring at the Youth’s finger, and suddenly shouted, “Xie Wensu! Do you really think I’m afraid of you? Using your superpower on me is no different than killing me!”

With that, he raised the knife, his muscles instantly tensing all over.

However, just as he took a step forward to charge, the Youth’s finger swiftly pressed downward.

In an instant, the charging Team Member appeared momentarily confused. He lost his balance and stumbled forward, but the Youth deftly sidestepped him.

“The real problem lies with these survivors… He left them behind so we would interrogate them. When all our attention was focused on the bald guy, that was the moment he made his move!” The Youth’s palm rested firmly on the back of the Team Member’s Hindbrain, and as his eyes flickered, the Team Member’s body began to convulse…

“But, how exactly did he manage to do it…”

Just then, the Youth’s peripheral vision caught something behind him.

That familiar feeling of being watched returned, like an icy needle piercing into his back.

Though he didn’t turn around, the Youth was certain that there was something lurking in the shadow behind the door…
