Sangsang listened to the system's altered tone and thought he was afraid, so she softened her voice and soothed him gently like a little adult:
"Uncle, don't be afraid, I'm just saying hello to the uncles and aunts in front of me~".
Sangsang's parents taught her that when she meets her elders, she must greet them politely. This is what a good child should do.
system:【……】
He was so panicked just now that he forgot for a moment that Sangsang himself was a little zombie QAQ.
Several ragged and smelly zombies, whose genders could only be identified but whose original faces could not be seen, walked towards Sangsang with strange and twisted steps, roaring and surrounding her.
Sangsang raised her little head and looked at the uncles and aunts in front of her. She said sweetly, "Good morning, zombie uncles and aunts!"
Zombie crowd: “Roar, roar, roar!”.
Several zombies stared at Sangsang with their smelly saliva. When they found out that they were the same kind, they roared a few times and turned away without interest.
Sangsang obediently watched the uncles and aunts leave, then looked away and continued to walk slowly towards the street corner.
Walking on the road, Sangsang blinked his round eyes: "Uncle, I have greeted them, are you still afraid?"
The system listened to Sangsang's soft and sweet voice, remained silent for a moment, and then responded: [I'm not afraid anymore...]
Sangsang said "Yeah", pursed her lips and smiled happily, then quickened her pace to the small supermarket.
The small supermarket was not big, and the food on the shelves had been basically cleared out, with most of the items scattered on the ground being daily necessities.
Sangsang stood on tiptoe, looked at the empty shelves, and shook his head, "Uncle, there is no food there."
This was the first time the system had done a doomsday scenario mission, so it didn't expect that this conspicuous supermarket at the street corner would have been looted by the survivors in the beginning.
Unless you check the small supermarket carefully, it will be difficult to find food.
He smiled awkwardly. "Sangsang, wait a minute. I'll check the small supermarket to see if there's any food left."
The system moved quickly, and the next second his gaze settled on a row of shelves against the wall. He spotted a bag of cookies at the bottom, and with a flicker of joy, he guessed it must have been kicked in by the crowd during the chaos.
[Sangsang, there's food under the shelf in front, go get it.]
"Yeah, okay!" Sangsang nodded his head vigorously, responded crisply, and ran over.
The gap between the shelf and the ground is not very large, and there is a layer of dust on the ground.
Sangsang didn't care much. He just lay flat on the ground and stretched out his tiny arms to try to reach the biscuits inside.
The system watched Sangsang's movements, more anxious than she was, and kept giving instructions.
[The biscuit is on the left, Sangsang touches it on the left.]
Sangsang's little hands felt around on the ground until they touched a hard-shell plastic bag. Her eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "Uncle, I got it."
The system was also happy. Then it detected that a bottle of yogurt had fallen in the corner, so it asked Sangsang to pick it up as well.
Sangsang held the biscuits and milk in her little hands and carefully wiped off the dust on the packaging. She asked happily, "Uncle, can I eat these?"
[Okay, Sangsang, please eat it.]
The system looked at the cub's happy expression, but couldn't help feeling a little sad, lamenting how difficult it was to raise a cub in the apocalypse.
Therefore, the host should find his brother Sang Chi as soon as possible, join the protagonist group, and improve the quality of life.
The system was thinking about something in its mind, while Sangsang's little hands were opening the packaging bag.
The outer packaging of the biscuits is printed with a cute little bear pattern, and you can smell the rich chocolate aroma after opening it.
Sangsang poured a piece of fragrant chocolate bear biscuit into his palm, but did not put it into his mouth. Instead, he said, "Uncle, the biscuit smells so good, do you want to try it?"
The system was stunned. It hadn't expected the young cub to think of it first. His old father's mentality was flaring up, and he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart. He felt strangely relieved and quite happy.
[Thank you, Sangsang. You can eat it. Uncle can’t finish it.]
Sangsang was puzzled: "Why can't I eat it?"
——Because he has no physical body, he is no longer a "human". All he has is a soul, but how can a soul eat?
But if you tell these words to the little one, she probably won't understand, and will instead start to wonder "a hundred thousand whys."
The system softened its voice and said, "Sangsang, be good. When you grow up, I'll tell you the answer to this question."
Sangsang blinked her watery and clear eyes, and hooked her soft little finger, "Uncle, let's make a promise. When I grow up, you tell me~".
System: [Well, uncle won't lie to Sangsang. I'll tell you the reason when you grow up. It's a deal.]
The bear cookies are chocolate flavored and the yogurt is sweet peach flavored.
Sangsang squatted on the ground, eating a small biscuit and drinking a sip of yogurt.
Although she was starving, she still ate slowly, like a little hamster.
When the system saw that Sangsang had almost finished eating, it spoke, "Sangsang, we are heading to Beijing Institute of Technology now."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of a bicycle braking outside the supermarket.
Sangsang paused holding the yogurt bottle and said, "Uncle, are there any "humans" outside?"
The zombie uncles and aunts here can't ride bikes, only humans can.
As a little zombie cub, Sangsang is very smart despite his young age. He understands the difference between "humans" and "zombies".
Moreover, her parents taught her that she should stay away from humans, otherwise she would be bullied and beaten to death, so Sangsang is afraid of humans.
This "fear" actually makes her resist contact with humans.
——Sangsang doesn’t want to meet strangers outside.
She stood up quickly and the yogurt bottle accidentally fell to the ground.
Sangsang took his short legs and ran between the rows of shelves without any hesitation. Finally, he ran to the cashier counter, curled up his little body and hid tightly under the table.
She hugged her knees with her arms, her shoulders trembled, but her lips were straight, preventing herself from making any sound.
Sangsang hid so quickly that she was already hidden before the system noticed.
He looked at the shivering little guy and soothed him softly;
[Sangsang, be good. He's just an ordinary person outside. He can't do anything to you. Don't be too scared.]
The doomsday storyline mission is not a peaceful era and is somewhat dangerous.
Therefore, the open mall has ways to avoid threats and save lives. If you encounter a threat, the system will protect the host even if it means emptying its funds.
The host's life is naturally more important than points, and the system will not let her be harmed.
However, the system's gentle soothing voice did not eliminate Sangsang's nervousness and fear. When she heard the footsteps outside the supermarket getting closer and closer to her, her little body trembled even more violently.
At this moment, the roar of a zombie reached her ears.
Sangsang recognized the voice as the aunt she had greeted in the morning.
The approaching footsteps stopped, but in the next second, there was a sharp sound of a weapon breaking through the air, accompanied by her angry roar.
Finally, there was a loud "bang" and the "Auntie" fell to the ground, ending the battle and returning to peace.
——Is the zombie aunt dead?
Sangsang shrank back fearfully under the table. She couldn't help but cry uncontrollably, but she didn't dare to make a sound. The tip of her nose was red from holding it in.
She raised her hand to wipe her tearful eyes, and her lips moved: "Uncle, humans are so scary."
Humans are so scary that Sangsang is even afraid of the mission.
But if she wants to go home to see her parents, she must complete the task.
Thinking of this, Sangsang was so sad that tears started to flow again, and the tears fell like beads from a broken string.
At the same time, the footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Sangsang's tear-filled eyelashes trembled. She covered her mouth with her small hands and held her breath tightly.
Just as Sangsang saw the other person pass the checkout counter and enter the small supermarket, she was about to breathe a sigh of relief and sneak out the door without attracting his attention.
A cold and indifferent young man's voice sounded above Sangsang's head.
"Who is it? Come out."
