"Ahhh, save me, Ziyue..."
Duan Ziyue was in a disheveled state. She had only run a few steps when she heard her classmate behind her exclaim in surprise.
She quickly turned around, and her pupils contracted.
Warm blood mingled with the sound of muscles being torn, and my deskmate reached out as if trying to grab Duan Ziyue.
A head was buried in her neck, and the cafeteria lady's plump body was covered in blood, with half of her intestines hanging out.
"Jiangning~" Duan Ziyue's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled.
However, Duan Ziyue didn't notice that while she was focused on the commotion in Jiangning, a hideous zombie covered in rotting flesh suddenly pounced on her from the side.
The other party reeked of a nauseating stench and the aura of death, its mouth full of sharp fangs agape, poised to bite her hard.
At that critical moment, Duan Ziyue felt her arm being pulled suddenly, and then she instantly lost her balance.
Before Duan Ziyue could regain her composure, she was pulled to the other side.
Duan Ziyue looked down and saw a slender yet powerful hand firmly gripping her wrist.
Through skin-to-skin contact, the other person's palm seemed to carry a subtle, almost imperceptible chill.
Immediately afterwards, when Duan Ziyue looked up, she saw a breathtakingly handsome young man standing in front of her.
Her face was stern, her eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, and the ends of her long hair were held up by a lace ribbon, fluttering in front of her chest.
He wore a crisp black overcoat, his eyes were sharp as an eagle's, and he held a long, gleaming knife tightly in his hand.
Without any haste, she spun around lightly, and her long sword flashed like lightning, cutting the ferocious zombie that was charging at her down in one fell swoop.
The zombie's body was instantly cleaved in two, blood splattering everywhere, but Duan Ziyue felt no fear whatsoever.
This all happened so fast that she stared blankly at Xiao Jin, her heart pounding as if it were about to jump out of her chest.
Mom, your daughter believes in love again!
After dealing with the zombies, Xiao Jin turned around and met Duan Ziyue's blank stare.
She frowned, terrified?
After checking several times, the girl in front of me was indeed the same as the one in the photo.
However, to avoid any misunderstanding, Xiao Jin still asked, "What's your name?"
My goodness, even her voice is so beautiful!!
Duan Ziyue blinked, her mind filled with images of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress. What should she say to avoid appearing like she was lusting after the young man?
Hmm? Xiao Jin sensed that the little girl's gaze was strange.
"Ah, my name is Duan Ziyue. Thank you for saving me." Duan Ziyue immediately came to her senses and smiled shyly.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to see something and called out to Xiao Jin from behind, "Watch out..."
It turned out that Jiang Ning, who had been bitten by a zombie before, had completely mutated and stood up to attack Xiao Jin.
But Xiao Jin reacted much faster than Duan Ziyue.
Just as the zombie opened its blood-red maw, attempting to tear it apart, Xiao Jin raised her elbow and delivered a powerful elbow strike to the zombie's chin.
"Crack!" A crisp sound of bone breaking rang out.
The zombie's jaw dislocated instantly, its gaping mouth frozen in mid-air, emitting a hoarse and weak roar.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Jin's blade flashed, and he turned sideways and slashed down with his backhand.
"Whoosh—" The blade whistled through the air, carrying an unstoppable chilling aura, and half of the zombie's head was cleanly and neatly sliced off in an instant.
"Holy crap, that's amazing." Duan Ziyue blurted out a curse after watching the whole thing.
Xiao Jin frowned, looking at the increasingly serious situation on the first floor of the cafeteria, and decided to take action to eliminate all the struggling zombies.
Immediately afterwards, a group of students in the cafeteria were astonished to see a god of death—no, a savior—appear out of nowhere.
The other party wiped out all the zombies in the cafeteria, and she even personally snatched many people from the zombies' mouths.
Children, around fourteen or fifteen years old, are at the age when their imaginations are most vivid.
They thought of all sorts of things, like members of national superpower groups, the Dragon Team, and the revival of spiritual energy, and their eyes shone as they looked at Xiao Jin.
To this, Xiao Jin could only say, you're overthinking it!
"You, come with me." After clearing out the zombies, Xiao Jin prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she said something to Duan Ziyue.
"Wait." Seeing Xiao Jin turn her head, Duan Ziyue looked confused: "Where...are you going?"
Xiao Jin stared at her for a moment, and after a while, he reached into his outer pocket, actually taking out a small alarm clock from his spatial storage.
She tossed the small alarm clock to Duan Ziyue: "Let's go to the noodle shop."
Duan Ziyue held the small alarm clock and felt it looked very familiar. It wasn't until she heard Xiao Jin's words clearly that she realized, "Isn't this the one I bought?"
She has two identical alarm clocks, one she bought and the other a prize from a lottery.
"Did my parents send you to save me?" Duan Ziyue's eyes welled up with tears, and all thoughts of divine food and love vanished from her mind.
She was still young, and after experiencing all that, what she wanted most was to see her parents.
"Are they alright? Is anyone hurt?" Before Xiao Jin could answer, she asked a few more questions, her tone full of anxiety.
At this moment, the students who knew Duan Ziyue were very curious about Xiao Jin.
Seeing the two of them chatting so enthusiastically, everyone felt itchy to join in, so the bolder ones came over.
Who would have thought that as soon as they arrived, they heard that Xiao Jin had come to take Duan Ziyue away, and some people were tempted.
"Hey bro, could you give me a ride? My home is on Fumin Road, just five minutes from school. Don't worry, it'll be quick."
The speaker was a skinny little boy with darting, shifty eyes.
He waved his hand at Xiao Jin in a pleading manner, his eyes full of obsequiousness. Despite his small stature, he gave Xiao Jin a very greasy feeling.
However, upon hearing what he said, the people around him couldn't help but get restless.
Since Xiao Jin can give him a ride, does that mean I also have a chance to go home?
Unfortunately, Xiao Jin glanced at the boy but didn't intend to pay him any attention. She said to Duan Ziyue, "They're fine, they're just worried about you."
Can we leave now?
He Zheng's face immediately fell. He stared at Xiao Jin, a hint of resentment appearing in his eyes.
You're so capable; taking me home would be a piece of cake for you. Why wouldn't you agree?
How selfish!
Of course, he wouldn't dare say that; the scene of Xiao Jin cutting down zombies as easily as chopping melons and vegetables was still lingering in his mind.
Even if He Zheng had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare to sneer at Xiao Jin to her face!
And so, everyone watched with envy as Duan Ziyue followed Xiao Jin out of the cafeteria.
As for them, the cafeteria is still the safest place, since all the zombies inside are already dead.
