Lin Xi was startled.

The intelligent hazard assessment function has been activated for you to help you make decisions in critical moments.

Lin Xi looked inside. Where was the danger?

[Host, one star represents almost no danger; the higher the star level, the greater the danger.]

Lin Xi's lips twitched; it was quite thoughtful of her.

People were scrambling for supplies in the supermarket. Lin Xi walked confidently to the grain and oil section, carrying a bag of rice in her left hand and a can of cooking oil in her right.

Lin Xi checked the weight and went directly to the cashier to pay.

This nonchalant attitude left the middle-aged women who were grabbing supplies completely stunned.

"Help!"

She had just reached out to pay when a loud noise pierced the sky behind her, and the crowd suddenly erupted into chaos. Several sections of the supermarket shelves collapsed, emitting sharp, piercing noises.

"...Yes, there are zombies!"

Lin Xi's heart suddenly tightened, and she subconsciously lowered the brim of her hat and adjusted her sunglasses.

She was getting a little anxious, so she called out to urge the cashier.

"Hurry up!" After saying that, she and the cashier were both stunned. The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and didn't sound like a normal person at all.

Lin Xi's mind raced. "Cough cough... why isn't my cold better yet?"

The cashier still didn't do anything.

Lin Xi panicked instantly. Had she been discovered?

She swallowed hard and slowly raised her head.

The cashier wasn't even looking at her! She looked behind her in terror, and the machine in her hand fell to the ground with a thud.

"Aaaaaaah!"

Several people in supermarket uniforms were grabbing and tearing at people who were running away. In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and several pieces of flesh flew over.

When Lin Xi was a child, he saw pigs being slaughtered in the countryside. The butcher would sharpen his knife and skillfully cut open the pig, remove its internal organs, and then neatly cut and arrange the pork.

But at least the meat she saw back then was neat and beautiful, not like it is now.

Lin Xi's gaze involuntarily fell on the piece of minced meat, sticky and mushy, with bones and flesh stuck together, much like the internal organs that a butcher had casually thrown aside, making it impossible to distinguish between bone and flesh.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!" Lin Xi screamed along with the cashier, her hands and legs trembling.

However, her voice was rough and unpleasant, far less clear and resonant than the cashier's.

And then she just watched helplessly as the cashier dropped the barcode scanner and ran away?

Seeing this, Lin Xi also lifted her foot to run.

The system's voice sounded softly at that moment.

[Host, you are a zombie yourself, why are you running?]

Lin Xi paused.

That's right, I'm a zombie myself, why should I be afraid?

Amidst the chaos, Lin Xi, carrying a bag of rice in her left hand and a can of oil in her right, prepared to go home. Reaching the door, she paused, then went back and grabbed a cart.

This saves a lot of effort.

Hehe, I'm such a clever little devil... oh no, I mean a clever little zombie.

I have a little donkey that I never ride. One day, on a whim, I rode it to the market. I held a little leather whip in my hand, feeling quite pleased with myself.

Stop singing, Ball Ball!

The sound paused.

—Somehow I slipped and fell, covered in mud! I have a little donkey…

The system was on the verge of tears, desperately wanting to block her, but how did she manage to hum a song without a single note being in tune?

Lin Xi was a little smug, feeling as if she had grasped a golden get-out-of-jail-free card after turning into a zombie!

The system's inner monologue: Help! Is there anyone who can do something about her?

As she walked downstairs in the apartment complex, a couple rushed in looking flustered. The woman accidentally bumped into her shoulder and quickly turned around to apologize.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."

"Stop dawdling, can't you hurry up?" The man dragged her into the elevator.

Lin Xi didn't say anything and quietly followed them inside.

The man pressed 20, and what a coincidence, they ended up living on the same floor.

"Little sister, where do you live?" The woman looked to be about twenty years old, a pretty girl with a pure and innocent look, big, watery eyes, and a gentle voice.

Lin Xi stretched out her hand and pointed to the number twenty.

She smiled and said, "We actually live on the same floor. I'm studying in another city and haven't been back for a long time, so you probably haven't seen me before."

Lin Xi glanced at the man beside her; his face was sour, clearly disliking the young lady talking to others.

"This is my boyfriend. He was supposed to come back with me to meet my parents, but unfortunately, this happened suddenly, and he can't go back for the time being." The young woman looked at her boyfriend and sighed. "Don't be fooled by his current state. He's just in a bad mood. He's usually very gentle."

"Stop talking."

The young woman looked at Lin Xi with a helpless smile and didn't say anything more.

"bite--"

The elevator doors opened, revealing a spacious hallway, but the sound of banging on a door seemed to be coming from somewhere, making the atmosphere particularly eerie and unsettling.

Lin Xi calmly took out the key and turned the doorknob.

The girl's voice came from behind, "Young girls these days are so aloof, but kind of cute."

Lin Xi: Not really, I was just afraid of scaring you.

[Task completed. Congratulations, host, on completing the task. Reward: 50 points]

[Ding! New player benefits—System Exchange Shop is now open! There are 3 items available. Please check the details yourself.]

Lin Xi clicked through; there were three categories: supplies, medicine, and special abilities. Each item cost 200 points. She couldn't afford any of them.

The system shop's inventory will be refreshed after each purchase. Keep up the good work!
