My Girlfriend is a Zombie

However, she quickly realized that this Zombie… does he even understand what a superhuman is?

With this thought, Lan Lan broke into a cold sweat. Judging by his reaction, it’s very likely he has no idea! No wonder he’s so calm; he doesn’t know anything at all!

Ignorance is bliss; there’s truth to that.

But the footsteps on the stairs were getting closer. Lan Lan dared not speak; she could only clench her fists, her palms damp with Sweat.

Her nerves were taut, with every part of her body secretly gathering strength, ready for the moment they would be discovered.

The likelihood of subduing a Zombie in one move was slim. She could only hope to reach Old Lan first.

Despite her young age, Lan Lan had a clear understanding of some issues. What allowed them to stand out so distinctly? Old Lan’s abilities!

Perhaps there were experts in the country more skilled than Old Lan, but in this area, Old Lan was the only professional that could be found, and he was still alive.

He was the greatest asset that the headquarters of Niepan had!

So even if the headquarters did not believe they were lured away by a Zombie, and might even blame them for the outbreak of chaos, at least their safety wasn’t in jeopardy. At most, they’d just lose some of their freedom…

As for the Zombie… Lan Lan didn’t expect him to win.

He was just a Brain Mutant Zombie. How strong could his combat abilities be? Even if he had some skills, the people coming were most likely superhumans.

Would they come here unprepared under these circumstances? Besides, these people were battle-hardened in a way a little girl like her could never compare to.

This group, dealing with a Zombie, should have no problem at all!

But at this thought, Lan Lan’s mind flashed back to the smile Old Lan had shown earlier.

That genuine joy wasn’t something she had seen even when he created Number 1.

Maybe Old Lan did not want to create a weapon; that wasn’t his dream, but Niepan’s.

What he really wanted to explore was this new species of Zombies…

Lan Lan sighed inwardly and glanced at Old Lan, thinking, “At least his corpse could be preserved. He shouldn’t be upset for too long…”

But what Old Lan was thinking about at the moment was something entirely different.

He nervously blinked his eyes, muttering to himself, “Please don’t get discovered!”

The more peculiar this Zombie behaved, the more anticipation he felt!

Both he and Lan Lan were as silent as mice in the presence of a cat, but the Zombie remained composed, squatting there with an air of serenity.

This was the first time Old Lan felt an interest in a Zombie beyond dissection. He had a feeling that following this Zombie might lead him to truly touch the core of the virus…

“Haven’t you found it yet?” Captain Song urged again.

His incessant prodding with each step spoke volumes about the severity of the situation. He was deeply regretting it now; the situation was too chaotic at that time, and he hadn’t thought of that “precious asset” right away… If anything happened to the Deputy Team Leader, the Experimental Group would be left in name only!

But even if he had thought of it, breaking through the situation at that time would still have been impossible. So now, the only thing he could do was to think of ways to remedy the situation.

In fact, he felt his actions were already quick enough; it had been less than ten minutes since the outbreak of chaos.

The place where the Deputy Team Leader lived was heavily protected and could trigger alarms at any time. It shouldn’t have been compromised so quickly…

Ling Mo looked up wearily and said, “Still upstairs.”

Just as he finished speaking, a muffled sound came from upstairs. The “clang” made it seem as if something had hit the stair railing, judging by the distance, somewhere between the Fifth Floor and the Fourth Floor.

As soon as this noise occurred, Lan Lan immediately shuddered, and Old Lan instinctively grabbed the Zombie next to him. This was an action no normal person would make, but Old Lan’s mind was entirely focused on the virus. Even though Ling Mo’s Zombie Puppet retained a human form, Old Lan would have dared to touch it even if it looked more terrifying…

Moreover, this grab made him quite excited, and a smile immediately appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Standing close by, Ling Mo’s main body’s face darkened, reflexively shaking his wrist… This lunatic!

Captain Song and his team immediately looked up when they heard the noise.

“That’s it, it’s upstairs!” Captain Song shouted.

He glanced back and saw that Ling Mo was already leaning against the wall, looking as though he lacked energy.

Seeing Captain Song’s gaze, Ling Mo just waved his hand, indicating they could go up.

Captain Song hesitated for a moment but, realizing there was no time to lose, he waved his hand and said, “Let’s go up!”

The three other superhumans immediately followed Captain Song up the stairs, but Mu Chen, looking uncertain, lagged a few steps behind, staying beside Ling Mo.

As soon as Captain Song and the others disappeared from sight, Ling Mo straightened up, his eyes lighting up.

“Wow, your acting skills are amazing!” Mu Chen whispered.

“Nah, I just took the opportunity to recover a bit,” Ling Mo replied. “You stay here and keep watch; I need to check something.”

With that, he turned out of the stairwell and into the corridor on this floor.

“Hey, at least tell me where you’re going!” Mu Chen stood there, staring helplessly.

Ling Mo wasn’t worried that Mu Chen would follow. Despite being a chatterbox, Mu Chen had his merits: he might ask a lot of questions, but he’d always go along with Ling Mo’s decisions.

This was no small feat, especially for someone with such a voracious curiosity. The fact that he could restrain himself demonstrated his unconditional trust in Ling Mo.

Maybe even Mu Chen himself hadn’t realized this yet…

At the same time, the Zombie straightened up, supporting himself on his knees, and said, “I’m going out to take a look.”

Lan Lan and Old Lan were still too rattled to react. They had clearly heard the footsteps heading upstairs but could hardly believe they had been ignored so easily.

That mental ability superhuman… how could he not have noticed anything? Could the disturbance upstairs have distracted them?

With so many questions in their minds, the two of them didn’t immediately grasp what the Zombie meant…

By the time they came to their senses, the Zombie was already out and had even closed the door behind him.

“Uh…” Lan Lan looked at Old Lan, still shaken.

The father and daughter stared at each other for a moment, then Old Lan suddenly held onto the windowsill and stood up. “No, I need to check it out.”

“Are you really afraid that Zombie will run away?” Lan Lan asked, exasperated.

“Yes,” Old Lan nodded seriously, and then added, “His corpse is useless; it’s his mind that matters.”

This statement exposed Lan Lan’s thoughts and made clear where he stood.

“Why do I even bother?” Lan Lan propped her cheek on her hand, looking frustrated.

But just as Old Lan grabbed the door handle and twisted it a few times, his expression changed, “The door is locked from the outside.”

Lan Lan was stunned and walked over to try it herself.

A few seconds later, she stomped her foot angrily and exclaimed, “That jerk! At a time like this, he’s worried we’d run away. What kind of person… ugh, what kind of Zombie is he!”

Fortunately, after a few minutes, the Zombie returned.

His first words left the father and daughter stunned once again: “I’ve brought a human; you should go with him.”

“What do you mean?” Lan Lan blinked, puzzled.

“Look, it’s inconvenient for you to follow me, right? So, I found this human. He’ll take you to a place, and then I’ll provide you with research materials through him,” the Zombie explained quickly. “As for how we communicate, you don’t need to know, and don’t ask.”

“You… this…” Old Lan was baffled, but Lan Lan quickly caught on.

“So, you’ve had this planned all along… But how did you get to know him?” Lan Lan asked, frowning.

The Zombie grinned again and then pointed to his head, “Using telepathy.”

“You mean…” Old Lan’s eyes widened in shock.

Telepathy? Coming from this Zombie, that implied psychic communication!

If he could do that, how much had his brain mutated?

“Actually, many things were taught to me by this person, so it’s safe for you to follow him,” the Zombie continued.

Old Lan took a deep breath and then asked expectantly, “Where is he?”

The fact that the Zombie could arrange things to this extent completely shattered Old Lan’s understanding of the world once again.

Although they were suddenly handed over to someone else, Old Lan had no objections given how his worldview had already been turned upside down.

In fact, Old Lan was curious, what kind of person would dare collaborate with a Zombie and even teach it?

More importantly, this arrangement seemed like the best possible outcome…

Lan Lan, on the other hand, was a bit displeased. It felt like they were being sold off…

“They’re waiting outside. But there are other humans with him, so you can’t disclose anything about me. It’s best if you say nothing at all,” the Zombie warned.

This warning was actually needless. While Old Lan might be a madman, he was also cunning.

Niepan valued him because he had potential as a tool. In such a mutually beneficial arrangement, their cooperation had been smooth.

However, when that value reached a certain point, no one cared about the tool’s feelings anymore.

If Old Lan voluntarily disclosed this information, it would be as foolish as a monk shouting “Eating my flesh grants immortality”…

So, without hesitation, Old Lan nodded and said, “Don’t worry about it!”

The Zombie then turned his gaze to Lan Lan, and the girl reluctantly nodded as well, “Got it…”

“Then you should head out. I’m staying here,” the Zombie said, spreading his hands.

It was only then that Lan Lan noticed all the pockets on the Zombie were empty, and even the temporary bundle he had at his waist was gone. It seemed he’d given everything to that human…

“How will you get out?” Old Lan asked, still concerned.

“Don’t forget, I’m a Zombie,” the Zombie replied arrogantly.
