In a zombie apocalypse, while survivors and zombies fought tooth and nail, Shu Lan hid in a garbage dump, using the stench to mask human scent and evade zombies. There, she gave birth to her human ...
Chapter 35 Genius.
Shu Maomao walked up to Shu Lan, who was lying limp on the ground, and pulled her up.
Shu Lan, still in shock, turned around to look at the two corpses outside the house, then looked at the fresh soil that had been turned up on the ground, her mouth open and her eyes blank.
She finally confirmed that her four-year-old son Shu Maomao was a genius who used his supernatural powers to kill people.
Shu Maomao's clean hand pressed on the back of Shu Lan's head. Shu Lan cried out "Ouch!" and came to her senses: "It hurts, baby."
Shu Maomao said unhappily, "It's swollen."
I should have dealt with the person closest to me first.
Shu Lan stood up: "It's okay, just rub it."
She counted the heads: two in the field, two on the ground, and one in the car.
"Five people, and one woman?"
Shu Maomao pointed to the woods and said, "When the first person died, he ran over there."
"Okay." Shu Lan took a deep breath and felt that she should say something, but when she squatted in front of her son and looked into his clear eyes, she found that she couldn't open her mouth.
What did they say? They said that a child shouldn't be so cruel, taking four lives with one move.
Did she really want to be so ruthless? She had already blocked the door and told them to leave, but they insisted on breaking in.
If she hadn't robbed two superpowers before, she and Shu Maomao, a weak woman and an immature child, would always be the ones being plundered.
The moral codes of this world only constrain those who are willing to abide by them.
Shu Lan's expression gradually calmed down, and she changed what she was about to say to: "Baby, kill the one in the car too."
Shu Maomao had no objection and nodded: "Okay."
He walked to the bearded man who was killed instantly first and got a little of his blood on his hand. After about two seconds, he looked at his hand and saw a layer of black mucus coming out of it. It became more and more and finally turned into a dark brown mucus ball.
"What's this?"
Shu Maomao said, "I don't know. I feel like he's as useless as this man."
Shu Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud. She was always touched by her son's cuteness when she was feeling down.
She took a knife given by Shu Maomao and walked with him to the trunk of the SUV. She knocked on the hood, then pressed the switch and tried to pull it up but found that she couldn't lift it up, and the person inside refused to let go.
Shu Lan tried to lift the hood with both hands, but it still didn't move. She had no choice but to give up on herself and move away to give her son the space.
"Mommy, no, you go ahead."
Shu Maomao concentrated his attention, and suddenly a vine several meters high sprang out from under the off-road vehicle and overturned the entire vehicle. Another vine pressed a switch, and the woman inside was caught off guard and fell out with gravity.
The moment she fell on her back, a bloody long knife appeared in the center of her pupils, and her eyes widened as wide as possible.
The tip of the knife pierced through her head, and the woman's vision gradually lost focus. Before she lost consciousness, she heard a clear child's voice: "We have water-based abilities, Mommy."
That's...her...superpower...
The land in front of the house was renovated again and the car started again.
Shu Maomao pointed to the woods with her little hand: "The woman who escaped is over there."
Shu Lan looked over, thought for a moment, and asked, "Baby, did she only see you kill the first person?"
"Um."
Shu Lan chose the latter between going in to chase the person and letting him go.
The other party did not see the process of Shu Maomao plundering other people's superpowers, and it was impossible to drive in the woods. It would be a waste of energy to chase someone who had already distanced himself from him on foot.
Even if the escaping woman met other people on the road, she would at most tell them not to try to steal things from any lone mother and son or mother and daughter.
This matter had long been known to everyone because of the wanted notice in District 15. If she told it to others, it would only add to Shu Lan and Shu Maomao's existing record and would not bring any more trouble.
Shu Lan was a little undecided whether to follow Anselin into District 9, so after getting in the car, she immediately turned on the radio to listen to the situation in District 9 first.
The broadcasts these days are almost all about District 9.
"All espers in District 9, please do not panic and flee. Secure your base. The unconventional army will arrive by helicopter around 4:00 PM to provide you with strong support. This includes 200 trained combat espers and a large amount of physical enhancement potions. Please believe that we will surely achieve victory."
"Zone 15's Commander, Jing Hongyu, has led an elite force to provide support. The gathering of high-level zombies is not only a matter of life and death for a region, but a challenge to all of humanity. I hope those with spare abilities will go and lend a hand."
Shu Lan was stunned for a moment. She waited until all the news had been broadcast and then turned back to listen to the name of the commander-in-chief of District 15 again.
Jing Hongyu?
Is it because they have the same name or is the world really that small? The person who issued the wanted order for her turned out to be someone she knew before.
Shu Maomao suddenly made two "pooh" sounds and picked up the water bottle to rinse his mouth: "Mommy, this candy tastes weird."
Shu Lan was also helpless. Most of the food they snatched from the supermarket was expired, so it was normal for it to go bad.
"Don't eat any weird-tasting candies, or you'll get a stomachache."
As she was driving, she saw a signpost for a farm on the side of the road and drove in through the entrance.
Although it is a farm, there are quite a few houses nearby, and there is also an abandoned strawberry greenhouse. Of course, there are no strawberries in it now, and it is basically full of weeds.
When Shu Lan got off the car, three planes flew overhead. She didn't have a watch to check the time, and she didn't know what time it was. However, the sun didn't seem to be in the afternoon, so perhaps these three planes had arrived first with some mission.
She took Shu Maomao around the farm. There were a lot of dead mutant chickens in the chicken coop, and the smell was very strong. She opened the door, took a look, and closed it immediately.
There are two longan trees in the backyard, which are still in bloom. Shu Lan remembers Luke saying that without bees to pollinate, it would be difficult for these trees to bear fruit.
She thought with some disappointment that even if they couldn't eat longan and defeated the zombies, their world would never be able to return to the way it was before.
After walking around and picking up a pile of dry firewood, Shu Lan started cooking.
Shu Maomao showed her how to create water out of thin air. Shu Lan applauded him with shining eyes. This was the water-related ability she had always dreamed of. From now on, she wouldn't have to worry about drinking or using water.
Because she had plenty of time, Shu Lan decided to use the pressure cooker she found on the farm to cook a pot of sweet potato rice, and then go look for edible wild vegetables nearby.
Shu Maomao, who was sitting by the fire, suddenly covered his ears and said, "It's so noisy."
"What's the noise?"
Shu Maomao pointed in a direction: "Over there, the zombies have been roaring since last night."
"Does he roar during the day?"
"There were a lot of noises, both alive and dead, and cars coming in and out."
Shu Lan asked doubtfully, "You couldn't hear so far before, nor could you hear so much."
Shu Maomao yawned, and his eyelids began to droop: "Hmm."
It seems that what Anselin said is absolutely right. In the process of constantly releasing and replenishing energy, the supernatural power will become stronger.
I don’t know where Anselin is now, or whether she has reunited with her kind.
Shu Lan suddenly came to her senses and complained to herself that a living person was worrying about zombies.
Shu Maomao was so sleepy that he could hardly sit still. Shu Lan gave up looking for wild vegetables and let Shu Maomao lie down and sleep in the back seat of the car after dinner, while Shu Lan sat in the front seat and closed her eyes to rest.
If there is danger and Shu Maomao cannot wake up in time, she can also drive him away.
An unknown amount of time had passed before Shu Lan, who had fallen asleep, was suddenly awakened by a roar above her head. She walked out of the car and saw rows of fighter jets crossing the blue sky and roaring away.
"It's about to start a fight..." Shu Lan said softly, "I hope we can win."
