Chapter 23 The Disappointed Little Zombie

Qiao Yan took a sip of the mineral water in her hand.

She looked at the pile of medicine on the ground but didn't pick it up.

The excruciating fever she had experienced before was caused by the zombie virus, but now, the effects of the virus have dissipated, and she feels like she has regained her former vitality.

Let's not waste these medicines.

However, a hint of doubt arose in her mind.

Where did this girl get these medicines from?

She wasn't carrying a bag.

Could it be that he went out to find it for her while he was unconscious?

Just then, Yuxiang's voice rang out again, "Pretty sister, aren't you going to take your medicine?"

Qiao Yan looked at You Xiang with gentle eyes, "My name is Qiao Yan. I don't need these medicines, you can keep them for yourself."

"Mmm." Yuxiang nodded obediently, and with a gentle wave of her little hand, the medicine on the ground disappeared without a trace.

A hint of surprise flashed in Qiao Yan's eyes.

This girl is a spatial ability user!

No wonder.

Qiao Yan composed herself, looked at Youxiang, and asked, "What's your name?"

Yu Xiang answered crisply, "My name is Yu Xiang, Yan Yan can call me Little Yu Zi."

Perhaps it was because of the water and medicine Yu Xiang gave her, or perhaps it was because certain aspects of Yu Xiang were very similar to her sister, Qiao Yan felt an urge to protect her.

She said earnestly, "Little Yuzu, you must keep your spatial ability hidden. Don't let others know about it easily in the future."

Spatial abilities?

This refers to her game inventory.

Yu Xiang looked at Qiao Yan, "But you're not just anyone."

In her eyes, Qiao Yan would be her zombie underling from now on, one of her own.

But why hasn't she turned into a zombie yet?

This left Yu Xiang slightly puzzled.

Qiao Yan was slightly taken aback by Youxiang's words.

Do you really trust her so naively and without reservation?

Her sister used to be the same way, always believing her without reservation.

A warm feeling welled up in Qiao Yan's heart, mixed with a hint of worry. She looked at Youxiang and reminded her again, "Little Youzi, you can't trust others so easily in the future."

Upon hearing this, Youxiang excitedly said, "What you said is the same as what Zhuozhuo said; he also said something similar."

Qiao Yan stood up and asked curiously, "Is Zhuozhuo your companion?"

Yu Xiang nodded vigorously.

Qiao Yan then asked, "Where is he?"

Yu Xiang shook her head, looking somewhat aggrieved, and said, "I don't know, he got lost."

Qiao Yan looked Youxiang up and down, and couldn't help but find it amusing.

Yu Xiang looks more like the one who got lost; her eyes are innocent, and she seems very easy to fool.

"Then come with me, I'll help you find him."

Upon hearing this, Yuxiang retorted confidently, "Shouldn't you be the one following me?"

The younger brother should follow the boss.

Qiao Yan didn't dwell on what she said, and waved her hand, saying, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"Gurgle~"

A sudden rumbling sound rang out.

Qiao Yan is hungry.

Yu Xiang was instantly drawn to the sound. She turned her head and looked directly at Qiao Yan's flat stomach, asking, "Are you hungry? What would you like to eat? I'll give it to you."

She had this air of "I have it all, I have everything."

Qiao Yan felt a little embarrassed and quickly waved her hand, "No need, I can go out and find something to eat myself. You have to keep your supplies for yourself. Supplies are very important right now, and we can't give them away easily."

Yu Xiang didn't care about any of that. She directly took out bread and milk from her game inventory in a smooth and effortless manner.

She held the food in both hands and forcefully stuffed it into Qiao Yan's arms, with an air of unyielding authority, "Don't be polite with me, I have plenty of this, just eat as much as you want."

Qiao Yan looked at the milk in her hand, still warm with the scent of grapefruit, and felt a warmth in her heart. "Thank you, I'll definitely return it to you later."

As she unwrapped the bread, she took a bite, and the aroma of wheat filled her mouth.

She swallowed the bread, looked up at Yuxiang, and asked, "Aren't you going to eat something?"

Yu Xiang shook her head vigorously and said seriously, "I don't eat these."

Qiao Yan thought that Youxiang was just a picky eater who didn't like bread and milk, but in reality, as a zombie, Youxiang really didn't eat them.

Qiao Yan took another bite of bread and said indistinctly, "I have something to tell you. There's a really powerful zombie in this city that can control other zombies."

"It has summoned all the zombies to its side, and the closer they are to it, the stronger the control effect becomes. The key is that its control ability is not only effective on zombies, but also on humans."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang's eyes were filled with admiration, and she blurted out, "Wow, it's amazing!"

Qiao Yan looked at Youxiang's exaggerated little expression and smiled helplessly: "Yes, it's very powerful, so we'd better not stay in this city any longer and find a safe place quickly."

Yuka proudly tossed her head back and declared, "But I'm the best!"

She remembered that she had been controlled by that zombie for a short while, but she quickly broke free.

Thinking about it this way, she realized that she was much more powerful than that zombie.

Qiao Yan was taken aback when she saw Youxiang's proud little face. Then, as if coaxing a child, she smiled and said, "Yes, you're amazing too, really amazing."

Upon hearing this, Youxiang's eyes narrowed into crescent moons with joy, and she hugged Qiao Yan's arm tightly. "Yan Yan speaks so sweetly, I like Yan Yan."

Qiao Yan looked at the pomelo fragrance in front of her with a gentle expression.

This little pomelo, like an angel, suddenly barged into her world.

Even though she was bitten by a zombie, Yuka neither turned and ran away in fright nor took the opportunity to kill her.

Xiaoyouzi's naivety may seem a bit silly to others, but it is precisely this purity that is most attractive.

After finishing her food, Qiao Yan stood up, brushed the breadcrumbs off her clothes, and said to Youxiang, "It's getting dark soon, we need to find a suitable place to rest for the night."

As she spoke, she walked towards the entrance of the clothing store.

Yu Xiang stood still, her eyes fixed on Qiao Yan's back.

Why hasn't Yan Yan turned into a zombie yet?

Does it really take that long?

Qiao Yan took a few steps and realized that Youxiang hadn't followed. She turned around and saw Youxiang still standing there in a daze. She smiled and called out, "Little Youzi, why aren't you coming?"

As soon as Youxiang opened her mouth, she said something that made Qiao Yan both laugh and cry, "Yan Yan, when are you going to turn into a zombie?"

Qiao Yan rubbed Youxiang's fluffy head and said, "I won't turn into a zombie."

Yuka looked completely puzzled, her eyes practically bulging with question marks. "Huh?"

She thought to herself, "My zombie brother is gone just like that?"

Qiao Yan patiently explained, "Being bitten by a zombie doesn't necessarily turn you into a zombie. Although in most cases you will mutate, there is a small chance that you will be fine."

Little zombie Yuzu was somewhat disappointed.
