Tick-tick...tick-tick...
In some corner, the annoying sound of water drops dripping onto the ground came one after another.
Liang Shimeng followed the tall, dark figure silently along a winding path. The scenery on either side of the road resembled the hallucinations of a drug addict overdosing on hemp, distorted and dreamy, full of bizarre and fantastical things.
Suddenly, the tall figure leading the way stopped.
Liang Shimeng looked up ahead. An elegant, old English-style manor suddenly appeared before her on the road. Its red brick walls and white granite columns complemented each other beautifully, outlining a magnificent facade. The manor's gate stood tall, a simple, Chinese-style bronze mirror curiously hung in the center of its roof. Through the silver railings, Liang Shimeng spotted an exquisite mahogany rickshaw parked in a corner. This blend of Chinese and English styles transported her to the old Shanghai she'd seen in old photographs.
Squeak——
The unattended gate opened automatically.
The tall black shadow turned his head and "looked" at her, then continued walking forward.
Liang Shimeng stood at the door and hesitated for a moment.
She wants to run away.
Only a fool would follow into such a suspicious place.
The annoying big guy stopped in front and stared at her quietly, neither hurriedly nor slowly, as if he had her in his grasp. The look on his face was really disgusting.
【……】
The black shadow stretched out his palm and made a heart-opening gesture.
Liang Shimeng: "..."
She felt like the heroine in some NTR movie that wasn't suitable for children, the kind that goes: Madam, you don't want your husband to...
Liang Shimeng's serious expression could no longer be maintained when she unconsciously touched the ring that Lan Zhou had put on her ring finger.
This sense of déjà vu is too strong!
"Alright~ Xiao Hei, don't make things difficult for my guests."
A charming, noble and beautiful woman suddenly appeared in front of the luxurious manor. She was wearing a navy blue cheongsam embroidered with peonies, with exquisite makeup and meticulously combed hair, as if she was the young lady of a wealthy family in Shanghai in the old times.
The black shadow that had suffocated the young couple Liang Shimeng and Shen Lanzhou respectfully took off the formal attire on his head and stood by with his tall body hunched, looking like a loyal servant.
Liang Shimeng became alert and took a step back.
It's so weird that a beautiful woman who is even more abnormal suddenly appears in such an obviously abnormal place.
"Alright, little cat." The noble and beautiful woman smiled softly, covering her lips with her hands. "Don't be too nervous. I won't do anything bad to you. Or rather, if I really wanted to, you wouldn't have the chance to warn me."
She didn't care about Liang Shimeng's vigilance at all. She turned around and walked back gracefully on her slender high heels: "It's impolite to let the cute little guest stay at the door. Come with me. Sister, I have prepared good tea and snacks for you."
The black shadow followed closely behind and no longer cared about Liang Shimeng.
The girl played with her hair unconsciously. She looked at the black shadow and the woman's back calmly and asked herself: Should I run?
Nonsense, it makes you seem like you can get away.
She sighed and followed reluctantly.
I don’t know how my Lanzhou is doing. She must be sobbing and crying when I’m not around. She’s so pitiful.
The fog rose up, gradually engulfing the figures and the magnificent and elegant manor.
…
In the supermarket, a temporary safe zone.
"I'm going to explore the way, you guys wait here first."
After eating and drinking, Shen Lanzhou picked up a brand new towel from the shelf and wiped the blood off his face. He slowly looked at the middle-aged man who was smoking quietly in the corner: "This..."
"My name is Li Qing." Li Qing held a cigarette in his mouth, his heart beating fast.
Being noticed by such a ruthless guy is not a good thing. He still hasn't figured out how this young girl managed to cut all the zombies into pieces in the blink of an eye.
"Hello, Mr. Li Qing." The girl was very polite and well-mannered. "Could you please come with me to explore the area?"
You are so awesome, do you still need me as a burden to follow you?
He really wanted to ask back in such a tough way, but when he met Shen Lanzhou's gentle gaze and polite and hypocritical smile...
His throat moved and he put out the cigarette in his mouth: "Okay."
"Let's go without further ado. The sooner we go, the sooner we can return."
Shen Lanzhou gave a reassuring smile to his relatives and friends who were looking at him worriedly, then turned and left with Li Qing.
The two walked out of the supermarket. The street was quiet. The door of the Aicunbucun Bank across the street was wide open, and the ground was covered with body parts and blood, piled up like garbage.
Ninety-nine percent of it was the work of this seemingly harmless girl in front of him.
Li Qing looked at the girl's back in awe and followed her obediently.
"Come to think of it, I've seen you're quite skilled. Have you ever killed anyone?"
"You're too kind. I served in the army for a few years." He unconsciously revealed a flattering expression. "Then, because my mother was dying, I retired and took care of her until she passed away."
"Are you married?"
"Not really. I'm already in my forties and don't have much time left to live, so I don't plan on getting married and ruining little girls."
"I thought people of your age would pay more attention to continuing the family line." The girl led the way nonchalantly.
Why is she concerned about my life events?
Li Qing scratched his head and answered honestly, "No, it's not a tradition in my family. Otherwise, my mother wouldn't have let me, her only son, join the army."
"Is that so... That means you don't have any weaknesses..." Shen Lanzhou stopped thinking, the girl turned her head to look at the person behind her with her back to the light.
