My Girlfriend is a Zombie

“Cough, cough…”

Her neck was gripped, and her toes were forced to tiptoe, finally showing a trace of fear on the girl’s face.

But apart from fear and tension, her eyes clearly expressed another layer of meaning: “This… this isn’t right!”

She considered herself quite knowledgeable about zombies, but the one in front of her absolutely exceeded her understanding! Judging by the eyes, this wasn’t a Senior Zombie, and by the physical condition, he wasn’t a variation zombie either… Yet this seemingly unremarkable common zombie didn’t have the notorious low intelligence typical of its kind!

Luring the enemy in, creating diversions, attacking from behind, tripping people… none of these were things a zombie was supposed to do!

The girl knew she was caught, but she couldn’t figure out why!

To her, the various “collections” on this floor were like toys, no matter how unusually one of these toys might behave. But she didn’t expect this particular “playtime” would be anything but enjoyable!

She couldn’t help but feel afraid, her body trembling uncontrollably.

This zombie was now standing right in front of her, his blood-red eyes fixed on her…

However, the girl didn’t know that what was actually looking at her wasn’t a zombie, but a young man hidden behind the zombie…

“Scared?” Ling Mo couldn’t help but shake his head.

Fear was normal; when humans are caught by zombies, their fate is inevitably tragic. With a little imagination, a person might even envision, seconds before dying, how they helplessly watch their own body being torn apart. This kind of death was one of the most horrific for humans, nobody wanted to see themselves become food. And now, this world was practically made for zombies.

Because he had just pressed her firmly to the ground, the girl’s face was covered in dust.

Her wide, frightened eyes made her look quite different from before.

Of course, Ling Mo would never actually tear a girl apart; the most he had ever torn was clothes, never a person…

“This floor probably only has this girl and the people in that room left…” Ling Mo thought for a moment, then suddenly reached into her pocket.

Seeing Ling Mo reach in, the girl stiffened up sharply, her eyes reddening slightly.

“Although it’s really embarrassing… I really don’t want to be eaten!”

Seeing the girl on the verge of tears, Ling Mo was taken aback as well.

“Really?”

How did she start crying all of a sudden…

As Ling Mo’s movements stopped, the girl’s tears began to fall even faster.

She didn’t know why this Zombie hesitated, but this meant her tears had an effect, so she couldn’t let them stop!

With tears streaming down her face, the girl stared at Ling Mo, vaguely feeling a glimmer of hope.

“Right, right, Zombies don’t cry. Apparently, this Zombie doesn’t understand why my eyes are like fountains!”

Seeing the girl cry more intensely, Ling Mo frowned tightly.

He hadn’t even done anything yet, why start crying so soon?

Also, since he had stopped, why had she really started crying instead?

“Are teenage girls really this difficult to understand…”

Ling Mo thought for a moment, then reached into his pocket and took something out, opening his hand in front of the girl.

The girl, caught up in her crying, was startled when the Zombie’s hand came towards her face.

In the Zombie’s open palm, there was a candy!

It was the very candy she had thrown earlier to test the situation, and the Zombie had picked it up.

But… why would a Zombie put candy in his pocket?

“And why would a Zombie give it to me… Wait, is this for me?”

The girl widened her eyes at the candy, then looked up at the Zombie.

When the Zombie lifted his hand slightly, she finally confirmed her guess.

The candy really was for her!

“But why? Why give me candy? Does this mean… is this his way of trying to make me stop crying?”

The girl stood with her mouth slightly open, her gaze at the Zombie completely frozen.

She didn’t know what to feel more shocked by-that the Zombie knew how to comfort a person, or that she was actually being comforted by a Zombie.

“Hmm? You stopped crying? It really worked…”

Ling Mo nodded in satisfaction and casually tucked the candy into the girl’s hat.

As his hand passed by her ear, the girl visibly shuddered.

She now seemed to grasp that this Zombie didn’t intend to eat her…

“You… you understand human speech, don’t you?” the girl mustered up the courage to ask.

Seeing the Zombie remain silent, she quickly added, “Don’t worry, I… I won’t run.”

“You understand, right? If you can’t speak… can you shake your head?”

Realizing the Zombie wasn’t making any hostile moves, her bravery slowly returned.

She eventually reverted to her former self; this girl was naturally quite fearless, otherwise, she couldn’t have treated those “collections” as toys, nor confronted Ling Mo alone.

One close call made her scared for a moment, but now that she found herself safe, her true nature resurfaced.

“…?” Ling Mo was at a loss for words. His goal was the intelligence behind that door, not this girl…

The best move now would be to knock her out with a slap, but hearing her chatter away, Ling Mo got another idea.

“Who are you?” Ling Mo deliberately slowed his speech, speaking in a low voice.

The girl was initially dumbfounded, then her eyes lit up excitedly as she exclaimed, “You can speak! Amazing! Is it a Brain Mutant? If he knew about this, he’d be thrilled! But you don’t quite belong on this floor, where are you from?”

“…You ask too many questions. Answer me.” Ling Mo rolled his eyes.

Girl, your neck is still being held by a Zombie, could you be a bit more serious?

This was a classic case of a healed wound being forgotten. No wonder she had the nerve to play tricks on this floor with such a thick skin.

“Don’t get mad!” the girl quickly lowered her voice, sticking out her tongue playfully as she continued, “I’m Lan… Just call me Lan Lan. And you? Oh, I forgot, you probably don’t even have a code…”

“You really don’t hold back with your words, do you…” Ling Mo thought but didn’t take offense. This Zombie identity seemed quite advantageous now; there’s no way she would ever suspect a Zombie of trying to extract information, right? He considered it and then asked, “Who is this ‘he’? Why would he be happy for me?”

“Oh, him! How about this… I’ll take you to see him?” Lan Lan’s eyes twinkled as she spoke.

Ling Mo found it amusing; this girl was already scheming.

“How about it?” she asked expectantly.

“…The ‘he’ she mentioned must be that researcher,” Ling Mo mused. To be honest, he was also very curious.

But the fact that this girl dared to propose this suggested she had a plan. Once they met the researcher, there’d be a high probability she could escape, potentially turning the table on him.

A girl who could casually think of luring a Zombie was clearly not someone to be underestimated.

“By the way, can you tell me how you managed to escape from the Long-arm Zombie… no, how you defeated the Long-arm Zombie? Going in and coming out again, everything’s completely changed…” Lan Lan’s expression looked quite “innocent.”

“A lot can happen in and out; sometimes, it’s not surprising to suddenly find an extra child,” Ling Mo replied sarcastically.

“Um?” At that moment, Lan Lan’s expression genuinely looked confused; she had no idea what he was talking about.

Ling Mo glanced at the girl and then suddenly yanked her from the wall.

“Let’s go see him,” Ling Mo said.

Initially frightened, Lan Lan looked surprised and then showed a hint of joy upon hearing this.

Seeing her slightly uplifted lips, Ling Mo’s main body couldn’t help but smile as well.

This time, let’s see who outwits whom…
