"Ahhhhhhhh! Hubby, there's a zombie in front of us!!"

"Don't be afraid, baby, your husband will protect you!"

These were the last two sentences Jiang Zhaosu heard before he died.

Then she saw the man, who was 1.9 meters tall, weighed nearly 200 kilograms, and was as strong as a bear, running towards her.

The secret room was cold and damp. The man's strong fist brought up a gust of wind and hit her temple hard.

Jiang Zhaosu is just an ordinary zombie NPC in the haunted house. Due to long-term malnutrition, her body is very thin and frail, and can be described as fragile.

As expected.

After receiving this fierce punch, Jiang Zhaosu suddenly fell to the ground, and his head hit the concrete floor with a bang.

Jiang Zhaosu, a young girl, died on the spot at the age of eighteen.

In the few seconds before he lost consciousness, Jiang Zhaosu's vision went black and many past scenes flashed before his eyes.

Less than a month old, Jiang Zhaosu was wrapped in a tattered cotton jacket by his parents and thrown at the door of an orphanage late at night in the middle of winter. Fortunately, he was picked up by the director in time and did not freeze to death, but he developed a chronic illness as a result.

Jiang Zhaosu has been weak and sickly since childhood. He could not compete with the other children in the yard for food. He was not well fed or clothed. Although he was in his youth, he was as thin as a dry matchstick and was not even as tall as some children who were thirteen or fourteen years old.

She finally got into a prestigious university through her own efforts. Her future looked bright and she was actively working to save for tuition and living expenses, but she was killed by this silly couple who were just showing off their love.

Jiang Zhaosu was clearly feeling cold and had a splitting headache, and he already felt that he was about to collapse, but an old joke suddenly popped up in his mind at an inopportune time.

If she were to use a metaphor to describe her short life, her life would be like a coffee table filled with tragedies.

Even though Jiang Zhaosu has always been very positive and tried hard to survive in this shitty world, he finally broke down at this moment.

She wished she were a real zombie now, so that she could bite to death the couple who treated her as a part of their play, who wanted to kill her and were still expressing their love tenderly and sweetly.

If there is an afterlife...

If there is an afterlife, I would like to let her become a strong and fierce zombie that does not know pain.

Jiang Zhaosu, whose consciousness was becoming increasingly heavy, thought so and closed his eyes unwillingly.

…

Liquid dripped onto my cheek. It was cool when it first touched my skin, but after a few seconds, it started to feel hot.

“Woo…”

I heard a low whimpering sound in my ears.

At first, Jiang Zhaosu thought that the couple had finally noticed her abnormality and were kneeling beside her, repenting and crying.

But as he regained consciousness, Jiang Zhaosu found that the whimpering sounded wrong.

Very close to her.

It was suppressed and low, not like crying, but rather like the roar of some wild beast, terrifying and creepy.

What's going on?

Did she travel to the primeval forest?

After his brain became clear and his body regained some strength, Jiang Zhaosu slowly opened his eyes.

What she saw was not the ancient and mysterious primeval forest she had imagined, but a reinforced concrete city.

This is obviously a modern city, with wide streets, tall buildings standing all around, and cars everywhere.

But what is strange is that such a prosperous city is too quiet.

There was no sound of people or cars on the entire street. Jiang Zhaosu was just lying there, and no one was watching or asking questions. Only a few staggering figures with strange movements could be seen in the distance.

The sky was gloomy and the rain was still falling.

The raindrops fell on Jiang Zhaosu's cheeks and body, and when they touched his skin, he felt an uncomfortable sticky feeling.

If you get caught in the rain, you will catch a cold and have a fever, and you will have to spend money on treatment.

I have no money.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhaosu, who had just woken up, found the strength from somewhere and jumped up from the ground.

As she moved, Jiang Zhaosu realized that the beast-like roar she heard when she just woke up actually came from her own throat.

What's going on?

She didn’t snore when she slept before?

Or is he too weak? He's out of breath just lying on the ground?

Jiang Zhaosu widened his eyes in confusion and wanted to touch his throat, but when he raised his hand, he found that the skin on his arm was ulcerated.

Because of malnutrition and anemia, Jiang Zhaosu's skin color has always been unhealthy and sickly pale.

But now, Jiang Zhaosu's entire arm had turned a bluish-gray. Yellow pus oozed from the ulcers on his arm. His five fingers were slender and bony, like fleshless chicken claws. His nails were pointed, long, and black, as if they had been crushed by a heavy object and had become necrotic.

This is clearly not the arm of a healthy human.

With a blank mind, Jiang Zhaosu subconsciously raised his other hand and touched the festering area on his arm in confusion.

Crash——

Just a light touch, and the festering area on her arm couldn't wait to break apart like a dilapidated house that had been neglected for a long time. A large piece of rotten flesh fell off like the paint on the wall, revealing the white bones inside.

“Hehe…”

Jiang Zhaosu's whole body trembled, and a low, hoarse roar like a wild beast came out of his throat again.

I was so frightened by my own roar that my legs went weak.

Raindrops fell on Jiang Zhaosu's arms, making small pits on her skin.

Soon, a large piece of skin fell off Jiang Zhaosu's arm, and yellow pus continued to seep out of the bloody rotten flesh.

Jiang Zhaosu didn't feel any pain in his body until he realized that this was not ordinary rain, but acid rain with corrosive effects.
