Such performance made Ruan Lingran's body tremble.
The goose bumps that had just gone down came back up again, and she knew that it was time for the Rat King to eat!
"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Yu just followed her gaze and looked outside, but didn't see anything.
But Ruan Lingran looked frightened. She pulled the curtains up without hesitation and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Nothing, I'm just a little tired."
Ruan Lingran vaguely found an excuse and fell directly onto the bed, closing her eyes tightly, as if this could make her feel at ease.
"Tired?" Seeing her like this, Zhou Yu patted her.
Mouse, mouse, what does mouse want?
Ruan Lingran didn't know how she lay down. Her mind was in a daze, and a lot of things kept flashing in her mind.
Perhaps, the biggest reason why she has so many uncontrollable emotions now is that she has lost her supernatural powers.
Unlike other zombie kings that are difficult to deal with, rats should be fine as long as they are full, right?
Before the apocalypse, many people had raised little mice. Although this mouse was a little bigger, but...
Thinking of its size, Ruan Lingran swallowed again.
She fell asleep in a daze, tossing and turning in bed, looking a little tired.
"You kept talking about rats when you were sleeping last night. Are there so many rats outside? Did they scare you?"
Fang Zehuan asked doubtfully.
Ruan Lingran has never been a timid person.
Even when facing a snake, she can act without hesitation!
"It's nothing. Maybe I've faced these zombies too many times recently, so I have some psychological trauma. It's okay."
Ruan Lingran just summarized the matter vaguely.
She was now considering the zombie rat's motives.
There are many controlled zombie beasts around the Zombie Queen, and there are also many obedient snakes around the Snake Mother. Some of them are even obedient and can turn into zombies that are almost exactly the same as humans.
They even completely avoided those dangerous inspections and were able to sneak directly into the human base.
So what kind of abilities do zombie rats have?
"I'll be out for a while." Ruan Lingran said this and went straight to Pei Jin and the others' room.
Seeing Pei Jin going to find Ruan Lingran, Shen Ziqing followed him.
The three of them found a secluded corner and sat together, looking at each other with a little seriousness in their expressions.
"Besides its superpowers, this zombie rat should have some other extraordinary qualities. Moreover, I have thought of a bold way to solve this problem."
In the end, it was Ruan Lingran who spoke first and broke the silence.
"We first broke into the Zombie Queen's territory, and she fought and killed us all the way without mercy."
"We've been to the Snake Mother's territory before. The beasts never show mercy when they attack."
"But this Rat King has given us a way out. What do you think it wants to do?"
The heroine told her experiences one by one, and then threw them out as questions.
When they heard this, Pei Jin and Shen Ziqing looked at each other subconsciously.
Then, Shen Ziqing said without hesitation: "Of course he wants to keep humans captive, so that we feel it is safe here and they will stay. Then, won't he have food?"
With Ren Sisi's previous reminder, it was easy for them to think of this matter.
"It's been two months since the apocalypse broke out. Has anyone in S City died inexplicably?"
Pei Jin understood something and asked softly.
Sometimes, the harm and attacks they see may not be real, but may be a means of protecting them?
This sentence really stumped Shen Ziqing.
You know, as the future of S City, he can be said to be the busiest person.
I have to run around every day to find supplies, and there is basically no possibility of coming back.
"Shall we go talk to grandpa?" he said, and walked upstairs.
Mr. Shen is arranging supplies for the next period of time.
For some reason, even though they had a lot of food, they couldn't get it. But until now, he didn't ask Ruan Lingran.
The old man has always had a good sense of propriety.
"What do you want to know that brought you all here together?"
After Mr. Shen had made all the arrangements, he took off his glasses and spoke with a smile.
"Dad, are there any innocent people who died here for no apparent reason?"
Shen Ziqing spoke more directly.
When he heard this, Mr. Shen lowered his eyelids and thought. After a moment, he seemed to react and shook his head gently.
"Not really."
Although a lot of bad things appeared in S City, the deaths of those who died were all justified.
"We speculate that this zombie rat king may not necessarily be completely evil."
When Ruan Lingran heard this, she finally felt relieved and expressed their guess in a deep voice.
These words made Mr. Shen frown.
It's the end of the world now. Could there still be zombies that are kind to humans?
"I wanted to try to bribe it with food. Apart from anything else, the fact that you are able to survive here today is already an opportunity it has given you."
After Ruan Lingran confirmed it, she directly expressed her thoughts.
"Impossible." Mr. Shen refused without a second thought: "We've sent people to contact it before, and it beat them into a pulp with one palm!"
Looking at Ruan Lingran's small body, how could she possibly withstand a slap from that zombie rat?
By then, it would be great if they don’t have to take the initiative to rescue others!
"But if you don't try, it will be like a sword hanging over your heads. Can you endure it?"
Ruan Lingran just put the reality in front of them.
With the supplies that Mr. Shen has now, if she doesn't support them, the people in this building will soon die.
What's more, as human beings, they have not tried to create value. Instead, they have been lying here, doing nothing.
"There have been several assaults recently. Although they're not major incidents, they're accumulating over time and are causing public unrest. How long can you maintain this stability?"
People are selfish.
Now that there is one less person, it means they may be able to get more food rations.
In fact, the time spent in this safe place will be a little longer.
Who would refuse such a good thing as not having to go out and fight with zombie rats and still having food and drink?
Mr. Shen's face turned pale, but he didn't say anything.
