After Fan Xin was forced to self-destruct, she was reborn back to before the apocalypse descended. Unexpectedly, even after rebirth, she was still a zombie. Unwilling to repeat her previous life...
At first, Kong Hongxi was shocked that Fan Xin was actually a woman. She hadn't noticed yet, but the more she looked at her, the more she felt that Fan Xin looked very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
Fan Xin laughed and said, "Really? Maybe it's because I have an ordinary face?"
This is a joke. Fan Xin has a more neutral appearance, but it is definitely not an ordinary face.
Her facial features are beautiful and delicate. She has the kind of look that is both androgynous. She can dress like a man without looking effeminate. When she has long hair again, her facial features appear softer and you can tell at a glance that she is a girl.
Kong Hongxi curled her lips and said, "If you have an ordinary face, then what am I? Forget it, I won't argue with you anymore. My little brother is still waiting for me. Let's go!"
She waved to Fan Xin and strode in the other direction.
Fan Xin smiled slightly, got in the car and left.
When Kong Hongxi reached the waiting convoy, she paused and slapped her forehead. "Fuck! I actually forgot about the portraits everyone at the Pingchang County base has!"
When she went to City D, she passed by Pingchang County. Such a small county like Pingchang County actually had a base. Everyone in the base had a portrait, and it seemed that the boss of the base was looking for this person.
When she first saw the portrait, she didn't look much like Fan Xin, so she didn't pay much attention to it. But now that she saw Fan Xin with long hair, she found that she was about 70% similar to the portrait.
"Forget it, it's not that important." Kong Hongxi yawned. Her younger brother opened the car door for her. She stepped in and curled up in the spacious back seat, falling asleep.
In the kitchen where food is the most important thing.
The roasted suckling pig has a fragrant aroma, beautiful even color, crispy skin, and tender and juicy meat inside.
It was exactly the same as the roast suckling pig that Lin Jiedong had roasted next to it, as if it had been roasted by the same person.
Lin Jidong blinked dully, looking at what he had baked on the left, and then at what Sui Jing had just baked on the right. He felt like he was dreaming.
"Go on." Sui Jing's voice urged gently.
Lin Jidong seemed to have forgotten his fear of Sui Jing. He stared at Sui Jing with wide eyes and pointed at the roast suckling pig on the right: "This, this, this, this, you roasted this."
Sui Jing smiled: "What else?"
Lin Jiedong's face twisted slightly. He still remembered how Sui Jing had burned a hole in his pot last time, how he had burned the rock sugar into a black mass, and how he had almost burned the entire kitchen.
He's like a kitchen killer, but he's become a genius after just a few days of absence?
Pooh!
It's impossible!
Unless this person did it on purpose last time!
Lin Jiedong's face turned dark in an instant, as black as the ash at the bottom of a pot.
He pointed at Sui Jing tremblingly: "You, you, you, you, you are not a human!"
Suijing smiled unchanged and nodded: "Yeah, of course."
Lin Jidong: “!!!”
He wasn't praising him!!!
Lin Jiedong was so angry that his eyelids drooped and he actually fainted.
Zhang Huai walked over and kicked Lin Jiedong. He seemed really angry with Sui Jing. He didn't react at all when Zhang Huai kicked him. His eyes were closed and he looked very peaceful.
Manor Hotel.
Wang Hong and Yu Qinglong both looked at the large group of zombies in front of them with expressionless faces.
The basis of military training is the training of physical strength and endurance, but... these are no problem for zombies. If you let them run, the fourth-level zombies are already very flexible. They can run for days and nights without stopping, whether they are running fast or slow.
Squat frog jumps are no big deal.
Do you want to train them in combat skills? Tracking and counter-tracking? Or spy skills?
Wang Hong and Yu Qinglong felt that Fan Xin might be trying to cleanse them.
Yu Qinglong sighed and put his elbow on Wang Hong's shoulder: "By the way...where is the boss? I haven't seen her since a while ago."
Wang Hong: “…”
Oh, so the purpose of handing them a group of zombies is to get rid of them?
The sun was high in the sky and it was the hottest time of the day. The busy people returned to the manor hotel to rest.
After Chen Ping had a helper, cooking became easier. At noon, he made a big pot of braised pork trotters, braised pork ribs, tiger skin eggs, and a pot of stir-fried vegetables.
The aroma of meat filled the air, making the already hungry people even hungrier, and they all rushed towards the kitchen.
Yu Qinglong shrugged: "Forget it, it's time to eat. Let's go, brother."
When Fan Xin returned to the Manor Hotel, she had missed dinner time. Tang Ruan and she came back one after the other, bringing back samples of the things they needed.
Because he was hungry, Fan Xin took a look at the samples and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
Fortunately, Shen Ping found out that Fan Xin didn't come to eat, so he had already left a portion for her. It wasn't because he was worried about Fan Xin, but if Fan Xin came and had nothing to eat, he would definitely ask him to make one for her.
There is a lot of food in Fan Xin's space, especially meat, which is almost endless. After all, the animals in the space reproduce and grow very fast.
But the speed at which those vegetables and fruits are consumed is terrifying.
Now the research institute has not been established yet, and no one can help her study the possibility of growing vegetables and fruits outside. Fan Xin can only shift her attention to the more than 100 square meters of loess in the space.
Because there were too many animals, the area of more than 100 square meters was packed, leaving no room for her to grow vegetables and fruits.
Sometimes, if Fan Xin didn't have time to move some of the animals out, stampedes would often occur.
In fact, this piece of loess was not suitable for growing plants at first, and Fan Xin couldn't understand why it could be used for breeding but not for planting.
In her previous life, the space did not change after she became the Zombie Queen.
But since she reached level eight, her connection with space has become even stronger, as if this space is a part of her body.
This piece of yellow soil can also be used to grow things.
Fan Xin found the seeds from the warehouse in the space, separated a blank area of more than 100 square meters of loess, scattered various seeds on the loess, controlled the loess to bury the seeds, and then poured some water on it.
The already crowded space was occupied by Fan Xin, and the animals' living space became even smaller. Fan Xin cleared out half of the animals.
For example, two male and female cattle and sheep were kept, five male and female chickens and ducks were kept, and two male and female rabbits were kept. Although there were many breeds of pigs, they were all hybridized because they were raised together. Fan Xin also kept two male and female pigs, and persuaded people to kill the rest.
Most of the aquatic products in the middle pool were also fished out, leaving only a few that could reproduce.
After this cleaning, the loess instantly became empty.
Fan Xin looked at the space. The already vast space became even wider. The gray fog retreated a circle, revealing the black land shrouded in gray fog.
I don’t know what is at the end of this gray fog.
After leaving the space, Fan Xin glanced at Xu Yan and asked, "Where's Sui Jing?"
Xu Yan pointed upstairs.
Fan Xin nodded and walked outside.
She gathered all the zombies with gold-type abilities and asked them to condense their abilities to create exactly the same thing as the sample Tang Ruan brought back.
Soon, steel bars appeared out of thin air, and the required steel wires, clips, etc. increased little by little.
Next to Tang Ruan stood a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked at the materials with shining eyes and sighed, "Hey, if this happened before the end of the world, we would be rich!"
This man is Feng San's master. His surname is Li, and everyone calls him Lao Li. He is also an expert in building houses. However, after teaching Feng San, he has never directed others to do work. He usually keeps a low profile. If Feng San had not introduced Lao Li to Tang Ruan when he left with him this time, Tang Ruan would not have known about it.
Tang Ruan glanced at him and said, "Stop looking and get back to work."
"Hey, I know, I know." Old Li said with a smile: "Everyone is working hard."
We are all from Qingcheng Town. After the apocalypse, we were ruled by Huang Xiong and had to endure such a long period of hardship and suffering. Not only were we in danger of being whipped and insulted at any time, but we also had to make ourselves look ugly to please Huang Xiong.
At that time, losing one's life was the least of one's worries. If one was not careful, Huang Xiong would torture one to death using various means.
Old Li still remembers that there was a girl who refused to obey Huang Xiong. Huang Xiong buried her in the ground with only her head left outside. She was baked by the scorching sun during the day and frozen by the cold at night. The girl was tortured to the point of being unrecognizable.
Just like that, the girl didn't die until Huang Xiong cut her flesh into pieces.
The scene was horrifying, and Huang Xiong even forced them to watch how he tortured people.
So after Tang Ruan appeared, many people were grateful to him. They were grateful for being brought here by Tang Ruan and for being able to live such a good life.
Thank you Tang Ruan and her boss.
The materials are in place, and everyone is working together. With Fan Xin here, the zombies can be better controlled. As long as she understands something, she can convey her meaning to other zombies through her mental power without any obstacles.
The city wall had to be built more than ten meters high, so the outer steel structure could not be sloppy. After the gold-type zombies condensed the materials, their superpowers were exhausted and they were almost exhausted. Fan Xin fed them blood and let them rest.
The reinforced concrete structure was built and assembled bit by bit, just like other zombies and humans.
Wang Hong walked towards Fan Xin and stood half a meter away from her. Looking at the busy humans and zombies, he seemed to have returned to the days before the apocalypse.
If it weren't for those zombies building the steel structures.
He turned and looked at Fan Xin: "I think those zombies don't need training, they just need a leader."
The fourth-level zombies have good physical strength, endurance and speed, and they are naturally obedient to higher-level zombies, which means they can complete the orders of their superiors very well.
As long as there is someone who knows how to deploy the troops, these zombies can become a highly mobile force.
Fan Xin smiled. "Hmm. So, are there any of them with strong leadership skills?"
Wang Hong: “…”
He looked at Fan Xin, speechless: "You ask me?"
Fan Xin glanced around. Everyone was busy, and Wang Hong was the only one beside her. "Is there anyone else here?"
She reached out and patted Wang Hong: "I'll leave this to you. Although those zombies are of the same level, it is precisely because they are of the same level that we can see who has more leadership ability, right?"
Wang Hong's eyes twitched. He was silent for a long time before saying, "Okay, but leave this matter to Yu Qinglong alone. I will follow the Chairman's instructions and follow you around to assist you."
Fan Xin looked at Wang Hong. Do people who love to laugh like to cheat others?
This familiar selling teammates.
I really don’t know what Yu Qinglong would think if he knew this.
Fan Xin nodded: "Okay, within ten days, I need him to divide the zombie team into twenty teams and select twenty team leaders."
Wang Hong: "Okay."
The suites on the third floor of the Manor Hotel are fully equipped with kitchen, living room, bathroom and room.
Sui Jing stood in the kitchen, holding a cookbook she got from Lin Jidong.
This was a cookbook that someone brought to Lin Jidong after he opened a restaurant, wanting to exchange it for food. Lin Jidong flipped through the cookbook and found that it was a handwritten copy with a lot of records, including many ancient court dishes. Lin Jidong agreed to the exchange.
In order to avoid being tortured by Sui Jing, he reluctantly handed the recipe to Sui Jing.
The first page I looked at in the mirror was chrysanthemum tofu.
In order to avoid being noticed by Fan Xin, he got all the materials from Zhang Huai.
There was a piece of snow-white tender tofu on the chopping board. He picked up the kitchen knife and cut the tofu one by one.
Chrysanthemum tofu requires extremely high knife skills and steady hands, because if the blade is slightly tilted, the tofu will be damaged.
The good thing about psychics is that they can accurately control where the knife blade falls. After a while, the tofu was cut by him. After removing the edges and corners and putting it in water, a beautiful chrysanthemum tofu appeared.
Because there was no gas here, Sui Jing took out a ball of grass, lit it, put it on the stove, set the pot on the stove and started to cook soup.
Sui Jing strictly followed the steps in the recipe and used the ingredients exactly as described above.
After an hour, the chicken soup is ready.
The chicken soup he made was rich in aroma and had a beautiful golden color. He poured a bowl of soup and put the tofu in, and a perfect chrysanthemum tofu appeared.
Sui Jing went downstairs carrying the chrysanthemum tofu.
When he came to Fan Xin, she was still concentrating on directing the zombies to move the bricks to somewhere.
Sui Jing walked to Fan Xin, bent down slightly, tilted his head to look at her, and placed the chrysanthemum tofu in his hand in front of Fan Xin.
The aroma of chicken soup wafted over, and Fan Xin looked down and was stunned.
She had eaten chrysanthemum tofu before. When she was still a human, Qin Yu liked to take her to eat all kinds of delicious food, and she also liked it.
In order to eat chrysanthemum tofu, Qin Yu took a day off and drove for several hours to take her to that particularly famous restaurant.
There are many ways to make chrysanthemum tofu. The one that is put in soup has a light taste and a tender texture, while the other one is fried for a stronger flavor.
But the kind she ate was cut into slightly thicker shreds, not as fine as the one in the bowl that Sui Jing brought. It was as thin as a hair, but each strand was distinct, and incredibly beautiful.
Fan Xin raised an eyebrow, picked up the bowl and spoon, and took a sip of the soup first.
The broth is fragrant and has just the right flavor.
After eating some tofu mixed with the soup using a spoon, Fan Xin couldn't help but squint his eyes.
She remembered what she had said to Sui Jing last time and looked at the smile on his face: "Can you do it?"
Sui Jing smiled with her eyes curved: "How?"
Fan Xin ate slowly: "Hmm, not bad."
Sui Jing took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the soup off her lip, with obvious joy in his eyes: "Then tell me whatever you want to eat in the future, okay?"
Fan Xin paused and said, "Okay, let's have abalone with rice tonight."
She finished eating the chrysanthemum tofu and put the bowl in Sui Jing's hand.
Sui Jing smiled and said, "As you command."
After the steel structure is erected, building the city wall will be much faster. The bricks only need to be stacked up in piles, and there is no need to apply cement to fix the bricks. Zombies with earth-type abilities, wood-type abilities, and gold-type abilities will use their abilities to tightly combine the materials inside.
Most of the five-hectare area was completed in one day.
The city wall was almost completed. Fan Xin calculated the time and handed it over to Sui Jing. She warned him to cooperate with Tang Ruan and the others and not to cause trouble. Then she drove to the safe zone.
At this time, Zhou Jinchen and Zhong Yi were sitting face to face in Food for the Heaven, both of them supporting their chins, yawning out of boredom, their eyelids almost stuck together.
"No, this is too boring." Zhou Jinchen leaned against the wall and closed his eyes: "I'll meditate for a while."
Zhong Yi ignored him. He raised his little hands to rub his eyes and continued to stare at the door.
When Fan Xin arrived in the city center, he did not go to Shiweitian, but went directly to the gate of the safe zone.
She opened the car door and got out. She walked to the door and said to the armed guard, "Excuse me, I'm looking for Liu Kai. Can you help me get him out?"
The armed man looked at Fan Xin twice and nodded: "Wait a moment."
After saying something to his teammates next to him, he turned and walked into the safe zone. After a while, Liu Kai ran out in a hurry.
"Fan..." Liu Kai ran over. The excited smile on his face froze the moment he saw Fan Xin. It took him a while to find his voice: "Xin?"
Fan Xin: "Yeah."
"You...you you you, you are, a woman!!" Liu Kai was stunned, his eyes almost bulging out of his sockets, his face full of disbelief.
Fan Xin had seen this expression many times before, and was very calm. She glanced inside the safe zone and said, "Tell your mayor to try to get everyone to live in tents instead of in pre-apocalyptic buildings."
Liu Kai was still a little dazed, and it took him a while to react.
He frowned. "Why?"
Fan Xin smiled: "Probably, intuition."
Liu Kai: “…”
Mayor Zhou is a good leader. The security zone he established is in perfect order. Under his maintenance, the security zone is well organized and much better than other bases.
The people of S City are lucky to have such a mayor.
But as Sui Jing said, when Mayor Zhou invited her to Hongyue Mountain, every word he said was a subtle trap for her.
Fan Xin could understand Mayor Zhou's feelings. He just wanted to find someone more capable and reliable to go to Hongyue Mountain to rescue those research talents. He had no ill will towards her.
How could she not hear the trap that even a casual mirror could detect? She just volunteered to be set up.
Fan Xin still remembered that in his previous life, Mayor Zhou died in an incident two years after the apocalypse, and then Zhou Jinchen's uncle Shen Changnian successfully became the leader of the safe zone.
Under the leadership of Shen Changnian, everyone in the safe zone quickly calmed down from their panic.
Mayor Zhou was not the only one who died in the accident. Most of the people who lived in the buildings before the apocalypse died. Only a small number escaped, and those who survived were basically those who lived in tents.
Liu Kai scratched his head. "Okay, I'll tell the mayor. Do you want to go in and take a look? We all miss you so much. You haven't been back yet, and we're all very worried about you."
Humans are emotional creatures, and they will develop some kind of friendship after spending a long time together. Even though they knew that Fan Xin was very capable, they couldn't help but worry because they hadn't seen Fan Xin come back since they separated.
Fan Xin glanced at the walls on both sides of the safe zone gate and said, "No need. If you have time, replace these walls with ones made of condensed superpowers."
Part of the wall that separates the safe zone is made of bricks and stones brought from other places, and some are made using supernatural powers.
Liu Kai nodded: "Oh, okay."
He had always treated Fan Xin as a brother and had never felt anything was wrong before. But now that he saw Fan Xin had become a woman, he felt something was wrong.
Fan Xin came here to tell him this, and then turned around and left without any reluctance.
Liu Kai opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. He grabbed his hair, feeling a little depressed.
"If I go back and tell them that Fan Xin is a woman, they will definitely think I'm crazy!"
Fan Xin walked towards Shiwei Tian.
Zhang Huai should have calmed down enough during this period of time, and it is time for him to get down to business.
As soon as she stepped into Food for Heaven, a familiar voice came to her ears.
"elder brother!"
Fan Xin turned her head and saw, as expected, a pair of bright eyes staring at her. It was Zhong Yi.
Zhou Jinchen was startled by Zhong Yi's voice and instantly woke up from his meditation: "Brother Fan is here? Where is he?"
He turned his head and met Fan Xin's gaze.
Zhong Yi jumped down from his chair and ran to Fan Xin, his black and white eyes full of joy: "Brother, you're back, I missed you so much!"
Because they had to wait for Fan Xin at Shiweitian, Zhou Jinchen was sure that Zhong Yi would not run around, so he did not handcuff him.
Zhou Jinchen was a little dazed: "Yes, I'm sorry, we recognized the wrong person."
He pulled Zhong Yi back and looked at Fan Xin awkwardly. This person looked too much like Brother Fan. If she wasn't obviously a woman, he would have almost been unable to tell them apart.
"What are you doing? Let me go." Zhong Yi was pulled back by Zhou Jinchen. He was stunned for a moment, shook off his hand, and almost jumped up.
"Stop it! What brother? Can't you see I'm a woman?" Zhou Jinchen said to Zhong Yi with a stiff smile on his face and gritted his teeth.
"He is my brother!" Zhong Yi glared at Zhou Jinchen angrily.
Fan Xin looked at the two of them, feeling as if she were in another world. The corners of her mouth curled up, and she walked over and rubbed Zhong Yi's head: "How have you been recently?"
Zhong Yi looked up at Fan Xin, his eyes instantly reddened. He leaned against Fan Xin with his hands around her legs, feeling wronged. "No, I don't want to be with him. I want to be with my brother."
Fan Xin reached out and flicked Zhong Yi's forehead: "No."
Zhou Jinchen also found Fan Xin's voice unfamiliar, but... considering the conversation he had with Zhong Yi, how come it really sounded like his brother Fan?
Zhou Jinchen felt like his head was full of question marks.
Zhong Yi stared at Fan Xin blankly, his eyes red and tears welling up in his eyes: "Why?"
Fan Xin was silent for a moment.
She was surrounded by zombies, and even if there were humans, they were very few. It would be better for a child to live with humans, right? And there were many children in the safe zone.
Zhou Jinchen scratched his head and asked in disbelief, "You, are you really Brother Fan?"
Fan Xin raised an eyebrow: "Don't you recognize me?"
Zhou Jinchen: “…”
Who the hell recognizes this guy! How long has it been since we last met? She's gone from a grown man to a woman? Who would dare to recognize her?
Zhou Jinchen was devastated: "My brother Fan is actually a woman!"
Fan Xin waved to Yu Rou who was standing beside him.
Yu Rou came over. At first, she wasn't sure if Fan Xin was her boss. However, although Fan Xin had changed a lot, his demeanor and movements remained the same. She quickly determined that Fan Xin was her boss: "Boss."
Fan Xin pointed to the door and said, "Please ask those guests to leave and close the door."
Yu Rou didn't ask why. She immediately went over and respectfully asked the person to leave, then closed the door.
"Let's go in and sit for a while." Fan Xin rubbed Zhong Yi who was clinging to her and led them to the rest area.
Fan Xin walked into the rest area. Zhang Huai, who was sitting in the rest area, was stunned for a moment, a little surprised at Fan Xin's current appearance, but it was only for a moment, and he quickly returned to normal.
He stood up and asked, "Can I go out now?"
Fan Xin nodded: "In a couple of days I will arrange for a few people to come and take your place, and you can leave."
Zhang Huai pursed his lips. He thought he could leave now.
He sat back down, lowered his head, and wiped the dagger in his hand, his movements somewhat stiff.
Fan Xin looked at Yu Rou and said, "Ask Lin Jidong to come over as well."
"Okay, boss." Yu Rou glanced at Zhang Huai, bit her lip and went to call Lin Jiedong.
When Lin Jidong heard that Fan Xin was back, he immediately ran over: "Boss, you are finally back, wuwuwuwu..."
He ran into the rest area and was stunned: "Where's the boss? Didn't they say the boss is back?"
Fan Xin: “…”
She was a little skeptical, was her change really that big?
The door of the rest area was closed, and only Zhang Huai, Lin Jiedong, Fan Xin, Zhong Yi and Zhou Jinchen were inside.
Fan Xin is now at level eight, and she can already be promoted to level nine, but the breakthrough from level eight to level nine is different from before.
When you reach the ninth level, you become the Zombie King.
Although he is an entry-level zombie king, it is still very dangerous to move from a high-level zombie to a zombie king, as there is a possibility of the crystal core exploding.
Especially since Fan Xin's upgrade speed was outrageous, she had been suppressing it, planning to upgrade it after a while.
Lin Jidong high-fived him: "Oh, so Boss, you and Boss Sui are not gay!"
Zhang Huai closed his eyes, feeling that he couldn't bear to look at Lin Jiedong's stupid look.
Fan Xin took out a leaf and handed it to Lin Jidong: "This is the same space as Zhang Huai. When Zhang Huai leaves here, this place will be handed over to you. I will send someone to assist you."
Lin Jidong was stunned. He looked at Zhang Huai, then at the leaf in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and reached out to take it: "Empty, space..."
Who is his boss? He has more food than he can eat and even room to give away?
When Zhou Jinchen heard the word "space", he thought of Fan Xin's space. Seeing Lin Jidong's eyes red, he looked at Fan Xin eagerly: "Brother Fan, no, Sister Fan, dear sister, what about me? Do I have it?"
Fan Xin's voice was cold and heartless: "No."
Zhou Jinchen clutched his chest, feeling as if a knife had stabbed his heart. "Sister, my dear sister, you are so heartless. Woohoo... I was so considerate of you, I collected so much blood for you!"
Fan Xin looked up at him: "What blood?"
Zhou Jinchen puffed out his cheeks and stared at Fan Xin with an angry look on his face, but kept his mouth shut and refused to say anything.
Zhong Yi quickly said, "I know, brother. He sold the things you gave him to the people in the safe zone, asking them to donate blood every year."
Fan Xin: “…”
Of course she knew that Zhou Jinchen had handed over the meditation method to the safe zone, but she really didn't expect that Zhou Jinchen could actually do this?
Zhou Jinchen added: "That's 800ml of blood per year, for a total of ten years!"
Fan Xin didn't know what to say. Zhou Jinchen was a bit cruel. If one person paid 800ml a year for ten years, that would be 8000ml. If ten people paid, that would be 80,000 yuan. If one hundred people paid, that would be 800,000 yuan.
Fan Xin couldn't help but clear her throat: "No need for so much, 800ml per person will be enough."
The meditation method was originally developed by humans themselves. She just brought back what they had developed in the future and gave it to them in advance.
Just - just earn some hard work fee.
Otherwise she would really feel guilty.
Zhou Jinchen brought it, and he lowered his head in frustration: "I fought so hard to get it..."
Fan Xin really didn't expect that such a smart Mayor Zhou would fall for the foolish Zhou Jinchen. Is this the case of there being a conqueror?
"Have you already smoked?" Fan Xin asked.
Zhou Jinchen shook his head weakly. "No, I set this condition when I returned to the safe zone, but I had no place to store the cigarettes at the time, and they would go bad quickly if left outside, so I waited for you to come."
Fan Xin nodded: "800ml per person will be enough. It won't take ten years. Just let them come here to smoke."
Zhou Jinchen: "Oh——"
Lin Jidong was holding the space in his arms with great curiosity. Noticing Zhou Jinchen's resentful gaze, he immediately put the leaf in his arms and kept it close to his body.
Fan Xin asked them all to leave, leaving only her and Zhong Yi in the rest area.
Zhong Yi's small hands tightly grasped the corner of her clothes. Seeing Fan Xin looking at him, his hands tightened a little, and his whole body was tense.
Fan Xin raised her hand and took off her contact lenses, revealing her scarlet pupils.
"This is why I didn't take you with me." She looked at the stunned Zhong Yi and rubbed his head: "You are a human child, you should live with humans."
Zhong Yi blinked and slowly came back to his senses: "Brother, is it a zombie? Is it the same as mom?"
Fan Xin nodded: "Yeah."
Zhong Yi was silent for a moment and shook his head: "It's different. Brother and mother are different."
He leaned on Fan Xin, hugged her affectionately, and rubbed his little face against hers gently: "Mom doesn't remember me, but brother remembers me. Brother is the same as before."
"I don't like it here. I want to be with my brother. I'm not happy here at all. I miss my brother and mom every day." Zhong Yi looked up at her and said, "Brother, can you take me with you? I don't want to stay here alone."
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes and rolled down his face.
Fan Xin looked at Zhong Yi silently for a while. After not seeing him for almost a year, Zhong Yi had grown a lot taller and the baby fat on his face had faded a little. He seemed to have grown up a lot.
She patted Zhong Yi's head and said, "Think about it carefully. Following your brother means that you will most likely be surrounded by zombies in the future, okay? I'll come over in a couple of days, and then you can tell me the answer. Once you make a decision, you can't regret it."
Zhong Yi shook his head and said anxiously: "I have made up my mind. I won't regret it. It won't take more than two days."
Fan Xin pulled him away: "Be obedient."
safe zone.
In the mayor's office.
Mayor Zhou's face was solemn. He looked at Shen Changnian opposite him: "Changnian, what do you think?"
Shen Changnian was silent for a while, then said, "Just do as he says. He came here specifically to remind you of this, so he must have his reasons."
Mayor Zhou pondered for a moment and nodded: "Fan Xin's character is trustworthy, and I don't think he would do anything without a purpose."
He stood up, walked around the office twice, and said, "Changnian, you must arrange it now. All the people living in the buildings must be moved to the square, away from the buildings. If there is not enough space..."
Mayor Zhou said solemnly, "Let's clear out the training grounds to accommodate everyone."
Shen Changnian stood up and nodded seriously: “I’ll go now.”
The safe zone was in an uproar because of Mayor Zhou's order. Those who lived at home or in hotels, supermarkets, etc. were extremely unwilling to do so.
No one could understand why one would leave their comfortable place and live in the square.
Let’s not talk about whether there are enough tents. Even if there are enough, who would want to use the sky as a roof and the ground as a bed when they can live in a house?
Fan Xin didn't know how chaotic the safe zone was. She had already returned to the Manor Hotel.
The city wall outside the Manor Hotel has been repaired, leaving openings for the north and south gates.
Tang Ruan saw Fan Xin coming back and walking towards this side with Lao Li.
"Boss, what material is the door made of?"
Fan Xin was very casual: "Iron gate, you can design the style and size of the gate, and I will ask them to make it."
Tang Ruan nodded: "Okay."
She immediately went back to drawing.
The surface of the walls surrounding Gaosong is grayish white, and because of the grass balls integrated into it, there are fine lines, which looks quite nice.
Fan Xin summoned the earth-type zombies, selected an entrance in the center of the base, and asked them to build a one-hectare basement.
Things like basements are slow and troublesome to dig manually, but it is easy for so many earth-type zombies to work together to create a one-hectare underground space.
Under Fan Xin's command, the one hectare area of soil under her feet was gradually compacted, and space was squeezed out to the left and right, front and back, and up and down ten meters underground.
The space grew larger and larger until it reached the size specified by Fan Xin.
After Tang Ruan left, Lao Li kept watching from the side.
He stroked his beard and sighed, "If only before the end of the world..."
Forget it, there weren’t so many people with special abilities before the apocalypse, and even if there were, they would be controlled by the state.
In a dense forest on the outskirts of City C.
Xiang Xueqian leaned against a tree trunk, bent over, and gasped for breath. He sat down on the ground and said, "Crazy, crazy, all crazy!"
There was deep fear in his eyes.
As a researcher, he always abided by the country's regulations and would never touch research that was explicitly prohibited by the country, but...
He really didn't expect that she would be such a person!
No, he has to go to City B, he must go to City B, and this situation must be reported to the higher authorities as soon as possible.
Xiang Xueqian took out a compass, identified the direction, and walked towards City B with difficulty.
In the C City Research Institute.
Wen Xiaoxiao wore a mask and performed the implant surgery herself.
A child of a few years old was lying on the operating table with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
Several people around wore antibacterial clothing to help Wen Xiaoxiao.
An hour later, the implantation was complete.
Wen Xiaoxiao took off her mask and said, "Send him to the observation room and take good care of him."
"Yes." Someone immediately transferred the child on the operating table to a mobile bed and pushed it to the observation room.
Professor Leng also took off his mask and looked in the direction where the child was pushed away.
"Professor Leng, why didn't your apprentice come?" Wen Xiaoxiao frowned and asked when she found that Xiang Xueqian, who always followed Professor Leng, was not here.
Professor Leng retracted his gaze, his somewhat relaxed eyelids drooping slightly. He took off his gloves and said calmly, "He analyzed the data all night last night and is resting in his room now."
Wen Xiaoxiao nodded: "That's a pity. The chip data this time is perfect, and the transplant was very successful. Your apprentice has such a high level of comprehension, I still want to train him more."
Professor Leng said calmly, "If you miss it this time, there will be next time."
Wen Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "That's right."
She suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at Professor Leng: "Is he really resting in the room?"
Professor Leng raised his eyes: "Why, if he is not in the room, where else could he be?"
Dr. Jiang on the side smiled and looked at Professor Leng meaningfully: "Maybe he escaped?"
Professor Leng looked at Dr. Jiang: "Escape? Dr. Jiang, that sounds a bit strange."
He sneered, "This isn't some dangerous place, why would he run away? Are those zombies out there safer than here?"
Dr. Jiang smiled and said, "That's hard to say. When we were planning to use that child as an experimental subject, didn't your apprentice turn pale?"
Professor Leng stood up and walked out: "Dr. Jiang, it's boring now. Let's go to his room and take a look."
Wen Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Alright, stop arguing. We've been tired for so long. Go back and rest for a while. We'll come back to check on number one in the evening."
Professor Leng nodded and walked past Dr. Jiang.
Dr. Jiang lowered his eyes and waited until Professor Leng left before leaving.
After the two left, the smile on Wen Xiaoxiao's face gradually disappeared. She walked outside the observation room and looked through the glass window at the hideous and painful faces inside.
