Chapter Thirty: Killing

Mu Qingyu found a handicraft workshop that looked most like a factory.

There was a zombie in the guardhouse, probably one of the workers who was on duty last night. After killing the zombie and breaking down the door, there were no zombies in the factory, but the machines and all the finished and unfinished parts were still there.

Mu Qingyu collected several machines and all the finished products. Regardless of whether they were useful or not, there was space available, and she couldn't leave empty-handed.

Then Mu Qingyu found the canteen of this small factory. There were two zombies in the canteen, and there was still a lot of food in it. Mu Qingyu easily dealt with the zombies and took the food from the canteen.

Her original plan was to explore the village since she couldn't go to the mall, but just as she was about to move on to the next store, a woman called out to her loudly.

"Girl, save me, please save me! My family members have turned into monsters, they eat people. I can't get out of the house, can you help me kill them? I'll give you money!"

Mu Qingyu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a house two buildings away. The village was full of self-built houses, and the buildings were quite beautiful, which showed that the people in the village were quite wealthy.

The woman, who looked to be in her early thirties, stood by the second-floor window and shouted at Mu Qingyu.

Mu Qingyu shook her head, but she still said, "Their weakness is their heads. Right now, they are still very slow. Although they are very strong, if you smash their heads, they can't hurt anyone."

"No! They eat people!" the woman's voice became shrill.

Mu Qingyu frowned. Just as she was about to say something, she heard the sound of a window opening nearby. Right next to the small factory, a young man in his twenties poked his head out: "Me too! My house has monsters too! I have money too! Help me kill monsters, and I'll give you 100,000 for each one you kill!"

Further away, another window opened, and a middle-aged man's voice, even deeper, rang out: "Kill my family first, and I'll give you 150,000!"

"Hey, little girl, I called you first. You have to come to my house first. Let me tell you, I saw you kill someone! Old Wei, the gatekeeper, was still alive when you killed him!" said the woman who first called out to Mu Qingyu.

Mu Qingyu's brows furrowed more and more. She had already sensed that, because of the loud noise, wandering zombies were heading this way!

Moreover, the security guard had already turned into a zombie when she killed him, yet that woman blatantly lied and claimed that she was the murderer.

“I saw it too! I was close by! You killed living people. If you don’t save us, when the police come, we’ll tell them you killed people!” the young man immediately chimed in.

"Yes, I saw it too!" the middle-aged man shouted in a strong voice.

Mu Qingyu glanced in the direction of the middle-aged man—his building was at least a hundred meters away, how could he possibly see a ghost!

Mu Qingyu was already in a bad mood, and now it was even worse. She had originally intended to teach the woman some zombie-killing techniques and post-apocalyptic survival skills.

Now, what's the point of saying anything more!

She started the electric car and headed back the way she came.

When the woman saw that she was about to leave, she screamed, "Ah—don't go—she's going to run away, stop her!" As she spoke, she threw something at Mu Qingyu.

Mu Qingyu narrowly dodged it. The object crashed to the ground with a loud thud. She glanced at it out of the corner of her eye and saw that it was a large wine bottle! That bottle was incredibly hard; it hadn't even broken after falling from the second floor. What if that thing had hit her on the head…

Mu Qingyu looked up and glared fiercely at the woman on the second floor, memorizing her face. If it weren't for the roaming zombies already gathering around, she would have gone up to this woman's house and finished her off first!

With another loud crash, the young man also started throwing things at Mu Qingyu, just like she was doing.

However, by this time, Mu Qingyu's car had already sped quite a distance, so he naturally couldn't hit it. It just meant that more zombies were attracted by the sound.

That middle-aged man was probably too far away, otherwise he probably would have followed suit.

When Mu Qingyu returned to Building 3, it was already two or three in the afternoon. She was clean when she left, but when she came back, her electric scooter and clothes were covered in brain matter and blood.

Mu Qingyu entered the house with a sour face. She took off her coat and trousers and threw them in the yard.

She sat on the sofa on the first floor, sulking. Yesterday, when the water receded, she and Mu Qingrong put the basic infrastructure back in place.

"Sister, what's wrong? Didn't you find what you were looking for?" Mu Qingrong came downstairs and saw that she was in a low mood, so she asked cautiously.

"I couldn't go to the mall because the streets were too chaotic." The main reason wasn't the zombies, but the refugees.

"It's okay, we have enough supplies right now, we can start looking around slowly. Don't worry, sister," Mu Qingrong comforted her, thinking that Mu Qingyu was angry because she hadn't found anything.

Mu Qingyu glanced at him, then said expressionlessly, "Someone wants to kill me!"

Mu Qingrong was stunned.

Mu Qingyu continued, "When I went out, I found an electric scooter. Along the way, many people tried to steal it from me. Of course, whether they only wanted to steal it or not, I don't know."

"The nearest gas station was taken over by a group of people who wanted to trick me into going inside. As for what would happen once I got inside, I don't know."

"Later I went to a village where a woman and a man tried to kill me. I wanted to kill them!"

Mu Qingyu remained expressionless and spoke in a steady tone. She simply looked at Mu Qingrong, observing her reaction.

Mu Qingrong went from being stunned to shocked to incredulous, until Mu Qingyu said, "I want to kill them," at which point he was stunned again.

Mu Qingyu didn't speak after that, and just stared at Mu Qingrong calmly.

"Sister, please don't kill anyone..."

Mu Qingyu's heart trembled slightly. Although this was a normal reaction for a normal person, she still felt uneasy. She even started to think about how she should give Mu Qingrong the supplies if he wanted to leave, and how she should warn him to stay away from those dangerous people from her previous life...

She didn't actually want to live separately from Mu Qingrong...

"Don't kill! You'll get your hands dirty! I'll do it! I can do it, sister, believe me. Give me a little more time, I'll get better. From now on, whether it's killing people or zombies, let me do it!"

"From now on, if anyone tries to kill you, I'll kill them!" Mu Qingrong said through gritted teeth, partly out of anger and partly to make a decision for herself.

"Didn't you say I have superpowers? Although I'm not very good at using them yet, I'll really become powerful in the future, sis, you have to believe me!"

"I—I'll go out to find supplies right now, so you don't need to go out anymore, sister..."

Seeing Mu Qingrong's eagerness to become stronger immediately, Mu Qingyu found it hard to describe her current feelings.

But ultimately, she only has two words in her heart right now—thank goodness! Thank goodness!
