After hearing this, Nan Zhi completely forgot how Ji Yuan had tricked her out of the trash can. She obediently climbed out and lay down on the hospital bed.

Such a stupid zombie, I really don't know how she's survived this long.

Ji Yuan pressed a button on the edge of the bed, and Nan Zhi's limbs were suddenly locked by chains that popped out, and even her neck was strangled by something like a belt.

She was somewhat frightened and asked anxiously, "Professor, you really won't kill me?"

Of course.

Ji Yuan thought this way, but to avoid trouble and to get her to cooperate, he still said gently, "No."

Nanzhi was relieved.

Even when Ji Yuan pierced her arm with a thick needle, she wasn't afraid; instead, she kept staring at him.

Yes, Professor Ji looks really handsome with a mask on.

The exposed Adam's apple was truly sensual.

I really want to take a bite.

Nanzhi swallowed hard and asked him, "Professor, may I have a bite?"

Hearing this, Ji Yuan, who was having his blood drawn, subconsciously thought of last night. His eyes darkened, and he tried hard to put those images out of his mind.

But it's no use.

A constant nagging in my ear: "Just one bite, just one bite, okay?"

Ji Yuan glanced at her and said, "Shut up."

Nan Zhi was startled, her lips pursed in a wronged manner, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

For some reason, Ji Yuan felt inexplicably irritated looking at her like this.

He tried not to look at her. After the blood was drawn, he pressed a button on the side of the hospital bed, and Nanzhi was automatically sent into the full-body examination machine.

The blood of zombies is clearly different in concentration from human blood; the difference is visible to the naked eye.

In the past, the blood of zombies was usually murky and dark green, and when it was extracted, it had a strong stench.

Nan Zhi's blood was different from the other zombies'. Ji Yuan was surprised to find that her blood concentration was only slightly higher than that of a normal human, and it had no foul odor.

This is only the difference visible to the naked eye; if tested, it might be even more different.

Ji Yuan couldn't wait to have it tested. He stared intently at the data generated by the instrument, filled with indescribable excitement and anticipation.

As expected, the data from Nanzhi differed significantly from that of humans and other zombies.

Over the years, Ji Yuan has detected that the source of the zombies is caused by prions. Any human infected with the disease will eventually become a zombie devoid of reason and humanity.

Prions spread too quickly and have been constantly evolving over the years, making them impossible to stop.

He repeatedly tested Nanzhi's blood and finally discovered a gene on Nanzhi's chromosome 20 that no other zombie had ever had before. This gene had never existed even in humans.

This discovery brought a smile to his lips.

If he can figure out how this gene was formed, humanity might truly be saved.

Ji Yuan excitedly archived the data, only to realize that Nan Zhi seemed to have been quiet for a long time. He turned around and found that Nan Zhi was still lying in the hospital bed, her face seemed even paler, and her eyes were staring blankly at the bright light above her head.

"I'm so hungry, I'm starving to death like a zombie..."

Seeing her like this, Ji Yuan raised his hand and glanced at his watch; it was already noon.

The laboratory is sterile; eating is not allowed.

He called Zhang Lu and asked her to send someone to deliver the food to the villa.

He then took Nanzhi and left the laboratory.

Nanzhi was starving and asked Ji Yuan several times if she could have a bite to eat, but Ji Yuan ignored her.

Fortunately, Jian Yihan came to take them back.

She couldn't resist leaning closer and asking, "Captain Jane, can I have a bite?"

Her hungry eyes sent a chill down Jian Yihan's spine. He gripped the gun tightly in his hand. If Nan Zhi showed any intention of rushing over to bite someone, he would knock her down with the gun even if he didn't fire.

However, Nan Zhi was soon called over by Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan glanced at Jian Yihan, his eyes unreadable, then looked at Nan Zhi and lowered his voice, "We'll eat later."

Nan Zhi's eyes lit up immediately. She stopped looking at Jian Yihan and just followed Ji Yuan around.

Jian Yihan glanced at Ji Yuan, then his gaze fell on Nan Zhi, a strange glint flashing in his eyes.

Ji Yuan had no appetite and ate with the zombies.

He let Nanzhi eat on the coffee table by herself, since the coffee table and sofa had the most of her scent on them anyway, and he could throw them all away after he finished studying her.

Nan Zhi has a big appetite and especially loves to eat meat. Ji Yuan had already asked his subordinates to prepare extra portions, but it still wasn't enough for her.

She quickly ate the meat from the plate, then licked the plate clean and looked at him expectantly, saying, "More."

It's like raising a pig.

Seeing that she was very hungry, Ji Yuan gave her his portion.

After eating and drinking her fill, Nanzhi patted her belly contentedly.

Ji Yuan had another portion sent over. After he finished eating at the restaurant upstairs and came down to the spiral staircase, he could no longer see Nan Zhi.

I checked the surveillance footage but couldn't find him. I don't know where he slipped away to.

The thought that she only knew how to cause trouble made Ji Yuan frown.

"Hello!"

"A little zombie?"

"...Zhi Zhi?"

No response.

Ji Yuan's expression turned slightly cold as he called out, "There's food. Do you want some?"

"want."

The sound was coming from his room on the second floor.

Ji Yuan arrived at the bedroom door with a dark expression. He looked at the open door and the little zombie rolling around on his bed, hugging his blanket and sucking on it.

His face was so dark it looked like he could kill someone: "What are you doing?"

She's a zombie, and allowing her to stay on the first floor is already the limit for him.

Now she even dares to go into his bedroom and do this on his bed.

In an instant, he wanted to blow the entire villa to ashes.

Nanzhi was completely oblivious to his anger. She hugged the blanket and said happily, "It smells so good, it's filled with your scent."

She took a deep drag, looking completely satisfied.

Ji Yuan narrowed his eyes: "Get down here."

Nanzhi tilted her head: "Get lost?"

Ji Yuan had no patience to explain to her. He went straight up, tied the blanket around Nan Zhi several times, and then dragged her and the blanket out.

Nan Zhi struggled inside, but to no avail. Ji Yuan threw her out without any hesitation.

Before Nanzhi could react, she was hit in the face by a bed sheet and mattress thrown out from inside.

The mattress rolled to one side, and the sheet was placed over her head.

She pushed aside the barriers and saw Ji Yuan looking down at her condescendingly, "If you dare come any closer, I'll kill you."

Even the slow-witted, dim-witted little zombie sensed his disdain.

She gave a soft "oh," then shrank further under the covers, no longer daring to look at him.

Ji Yuan looked at her like this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the coldness on his face lessened a bit.

They could have kept her in the lab; even if she got hungry, they could have tried injecting her with some nutrients to see if she could survive.

He's gone mad; why did he bring her back again?
