Chapter 90 'Yes Yes'

He Zhuo's head-flipping motion caught Wen Qing off guard, and a tuft of her hair was severed at the root.

The air suddenly became quiet.

He Zhuo stiffly raised his hand to touch the top of his head, only to find a sudden, flat surface.

In the mirror, his signature red-to-black gradient hair now looked like a wheat field that had been chewed by a dog.

"......"

"Pfft." Gu Wan was the first to burst out laughing.

Then everyone burst into laughter.

"Sister Wenqing..." He Zhuo wanted to cry but had no tears.

Wen Qing coughed lightly, barely suppressing a laugh: "How about... just shave your head? It's hot anyway."

The macaw was laughing so hard it was rolling around on the roof of the car: "Baldy! Baldy!"

In the end, He Zhuo, sporting a greasy buzz cut, squatted beside the SUV, utterly dejected.

The sunlight shone directly on the pale scalp.

Gu Qi stood at a distance, a half-smoked cigarette dangling from his lips, and scoffed, "Serves you right. Who told you to cut your own hair like you have ADHD?"

Gu Wan sat cross-legged under the sky, tilted her head to look at him for two seconds, and reluctantly comforted him: "It's alright, a buzz cut is the only standard to test a handsome guy - congratulations, you barely passed."

The macaw flapped its wings and landed on the table, yelling in its hoarse voice, "Ugly! Ugly! You're the ugliest!"

He Zhuo jumped up and pounced on him menacingly: "Gangzi? You dare call yourself that? From now on, you'll be called Gou Dan, a perfect match for your worthless bird!"

The macaw swooped low overhead with a cheeky grin.

The wind whipped up by the wings sprayed all over He Zhuo's face, and he didn't forget to curse under his breath: "Vicious! Ugly man with a vicious heart!"

Under the sky, Lu Nange and her friends sat in a circle, some eating sunflower seeds, some drinking water, watching the whole show.

And that wicked parrot, taking advantage of its ability to fly, deliberately circled around He Zhuo, going up and down.

"call--"

He Zhuo finally gave up the pursuit and slumped down in a folding chair.

Turning to look at Lu Nange, her eyes were filled with such resentment they could drip water: "Nannan, little sister, my dear little sister... how about we have roasted parrot for dinner tonight? The kind that's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."

Before he could finish speaking, the macaw swooped down and its sharp beak precisely pecked at his fingers: "Ugly and poisonous! Ugly man murderer!"

Lu Nange reacted quickly, scooping the parrot into her arms and grabbing a water bowl from the side, handing it to its mouth: "Calm down for a bit, my dear, you've been yelling yourself hoarse."

The macaw held its head high with an air of arrogance, but still obediently approached the rim of the bowl and sipped a couple of mouthfuls of water.

With a flap of its wings, it flew to the table, picked up a sunflower seed, and with a crisp "crack," the shell split open.

Finally, it tilted its head and glanced sideways at He Zhuo, its wingtips twitching triumphantly, looking just like a victorious general.

"Take a step back and the sea and sky will be vast; why bother arguing with a bird!" He Zhuo muttered through gritted teeth, veins throbbing on his forehead.

A macaw, munching on sunflower seeds, cried out: "Baldy, baldy!"

He Zhuo angrily retorted, "Retreat? Not an inch!"

He lunged at the table: "Dog Egg! Today it's either you or me!"

The macaw was prepared, its wings flapping out with a "whoosh": "Ugly man, ugly man!"

Lu Xici: "From now on, there really won't be a moment of peace!"

......

The weather was hot, and Lu Nange and her group relied entirely on the macaw's ice-type cooling ability to cool down.

Looking around, the surroundings resembled blocks crushed by a giant hand, with collapsed buildings completely blocking the roads.

It's impossible to drive a car like that.

Walking through the city in this kind of weather would turn you into a roasted meat in no time.

As the sun gradually set and the temperature dropped, Lu Nange finally put the vehicle away.

There are too many strange animals in the city, and there are also zombies. It will only become more dangerous after nightfall.

Spending the night outdoors is like delivering takeout to them.

The group trudged through the ruins, the collapsed floorboards creaking ominously beneath their feet.

Lu Nange walked last.

As he walked, he waved his hand, storing the broken stones and beams into his spatial storage—since he couldn't store the corpses, this reinforced concrete became a ready-made arsenal.

If you encounter a tough opponent, just smash a building and see who can outlast whom.

After walking for more than half an hour, as it got dark, the road surface finally became smoother.

Lu Nange's mental energy suddenly trembled slightly—there was the aura of a survivor.

They found a relatively intact low-rise building, where the group planned to spend the night before leaving Shashi and continuing their journey.

I tidied up a bit and made do for the night.

After dinner, everyone silently took out all the crystal cores from their pockets and piled them in front of Lu Nange.

Lu Nange didn't refuse to wake up 'Youyou', and will share the details with everyone later.

After putting away the crystal core, Lu Nange prepared to climb onto her air mattress.

The macaws followed along, chattering away.

Standing at the head of the bed, he tilted his head to look at her: "Beauty, let's sleep together, let's sleep together!"

Lu Nange's brow twitched; why did the wind blade suddenly change direction...?

I got out of bed, found a crib for Gangzi, and even hung up a colorful mobile.

The macaw immediately flapped its wings excitedly, pacing back and forth on the crib, occasionally tapping the tinkling bell with its beak.

Lu Nange lay on her back on the air mattress and stored the crystal core into her space.

The faintly glowing energy bodies melted away as soon as they entered, like snowflakes falling into boiling water, and were completely swallowed up.

"Is there?" she whispered in her mind.

silence.

"Tsk, so you've raised a money-devouring beast, huh? So many crystal cores and it still won't wake up?"

"Nan Nan, are you complaining that I eat too much?" A childish voice suddenly rang out.

Lu Nange sat up with a start: ['Youyou', you're awake?]

[Hmm~ Thanks to Nan Nan for finding so many crystal cores! This time, we've got plenty of energy!]

That's great! How many days will you be awake this time?

[Don't worry, as long as Nan Nan feeds me on time... Wait!] The voice suddenly rose: [Why has your system inventory been upgraded to a space? But what's with these house-like, fragmented stones?!]

[Um, I was thinking, if we encounter someone we can't beat, just smash them to death! If one building isn't enough, smash two!]

【…】Youyou paused for a moment: 【As expected of Nannan!】

The voice suddenly brightened: [We've arrived in Shashi, awakened your special abilities, and even unlocked the covert missions! Truly a host I chose!]

【I'm not buying compliments today!】Lu Nange tapped her finger in the air: 【Why don't you explain what a hidden quest is? So... I still have a main quest?】

"Well..." The voice suddenly became hesitant and unsteady.
