Chapter 16: The Elusive Woman in White
In the Supermarket of God, Ruan Fanfan looked outside the door warily. A second ago, she sensed a powerful energy enveloping the surroundings, and in just a moment, it disappeared.
A figure floated past the door.
Before Ruan Fanfan could react, Conghui raised his feathers and flew out of the house.
Ruan Fanfan groped his way to the door and looked into the alley. He saw Conghui, who had turned into a big bird, chasing a woman with long hair.
The long-haired woman's running movements seemed a bit clumsy. She ran very fast, her feet not feeling rooted.
Is it a zombie?
But it doesn’t seem like it?
When she met Song Yuqing before, this woman was standing not far away from Song Yuqing. Ruan Fanfan thought that Song Yuqing was bullied by some psychic.
Just as Conghui's beak was about to strike the woman's back, the zombies suddenly gathered around and blocked Conghui's path. The long-haired woman disappeared into the zombie swarm.
Song Yuqing had just walked out of the next room when she saw this scene. She was sure of one thing: the woman could control zombies.
"So scary! Like a ghost!" As soon as Ruan Fanfan saw Song Yuqing, he grabbed Song Yuqing's arm tightly.
Little Meat Bun looked at Ruan Fanfan with disdain.
"Don't worry, we have zombies, so there will be ghosts, right?" Song Yuqing deliberately whispered in Ruan Fanfan's ear.
"Ah!" Ruan Fanfan clung even closer to Song Yuqing.
After Conghui drove away the zombies and flew back to the supermarket, Song Yuqing closed the door of God's Supermarket.
Was that elusive woman a human, a zombie, or even a ghost? Song Yuqing and Ruan Fanfan discussed the matter for a long time, but still couldn't come to a conclusion.
The little meat bun stared out the window intently. If that person appeared again, he would definitely catch her with his own hands.
Outside the alley, a woman in white clothes and long hair was squatting at the foot of the wall, looking dejected, pulling out the leaves of the mutated weeds.
The mutant weeds were hard to defend against, and their leaves were plucked out. But the woman didn't let it go. When there were no more leaves left to pluck, she uprooted the mutant plant. The mutant plant had no power to fight back and could only watch itself being torn apart.
At night, Little Meat Bun lay on the ground, his body stretched out in a big shape, snoring loudly. Conghui paced around Little Meat Bun, trying to wake him up with his beak, but to no avail.
"Damn it, damn it." Conghui was furious.
Song Yuqing and Ruan Fanfan huddled together on a camp bed, their breathing rhythm unconsciously disturbed by the little meatball's snoring. Song Yuqing and Ruan Fanfan looked at each other in tacit understanding and burst into laughter.
Song Yuqing found a piece of tape and taped the little boy's mouth, and the snoring became a little quieter.
Conghui kicked the little meat bun with his foot, then stepped on the little meat bun's belly, found the softest spot, and fell asleep.
Ruan Fanfan was a light sleeper and could not fall asleep even if her snoring was very quiet, so she pestered Song Yuqing to tell her more about the God's Supermarket.
"How about you stay and work as a clerk in God's Supermarket? Food and accommodation are provided." Song Yuqing was full of anticipation.
"Can I eat anything I want?"
"Can."
Ruan Fanfan did not nod in agreement excitedly as Song Yuqing had imagined, but fell into silence.
"No." Ruan Fanfan coldly rejected Song Yuqing's invitation. She still preferred to travel with Conghui.
No, why did everyone reject her? Liu Xiaona rejected her, Ruan Fanfan also rejected her, what was wrong with God's Supermarket?
Song Yuqing stood up suddenly and wanted to talk to Ruan Fanfan, but he met a pair of dead eyes outside the window.
The woman with long hair and white clothes was leaning on the window, looking inside. Her skin was pale, without a trace of blood.
"Ah!!!" Song Yuqing's heart skipped a beat.
The long-haired woman was also startled. She seemed to have not expected to be discovered and slipped away in a hurry.
Song Yuqing's screams did not stop, which led to Ruan Fanfan's screams. Conghui was startled and was about to go to check what was going on when he was pinned down by the little meat bag who turned over.
Smart:!!!
When the little meat bun woke up from being tickled, he was shocked to find that Song Yuqing and Ruan Fanfan were looking at him speechlessly.
What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?
Conghui struggled and crawled out from under Xiaoroubao's butt, gasping for breath.
Seeing this, Little Meat Bun scratched his head embarrassedly.
Song Yuqing and Ruan Fanfan were so frightened by the woman in white that they lost all sleepiness and simply sat together to chat. Song Yuqing could feel that the woman in white had no ill intentions, but why was she following her and monitoring her?
"I heard that some zombies are evolving into something closer to human form." Ruan Fanfan put his head on Song Yuqing's shoulder. "I'm leaving tomorrow, so you better be careful."
"You're leaving tomorrow? Where are you going?" In the past, every time Ruan Fanfan came to see Song Yuqing, he would stay for a month and a half.
"Yeah." Ruan Fanfan didn't explain much.
In the tent area of Base No. 27, Liu Xiaona tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
In the past two days, Chen Ke always picked on him. He worked like a beast of burden all day long, fighting zombies and digging foundations. He was almost exhausted. He would fall three times after walking ten meters.
If he wasn't waiting for Sister Qin, he would have just left.
Liu Xiaona stood up, walked out of the tent, and sat cross-legged. The spring night was still a little cold, so Liu Xiaona hugged herself.
Not far away, Chen Ke quietly slipped out of the tent and headed towards the villa area. Curious, Liu Xiaona quietly followed.
Chen Ke stopped in front of the villa of the base founder, looked around, and knocked on the door when no one was around.
The door of the villa opened, and a man in a flowery robe pulled Chen Ke into the house.
That man was the founder of Base No. 27, the gold-type psychic Xie Zetian. It was said that he and Xie Hao were related, but Xie Hao had never admitted it, and no one dared to question Xie Zetian.
Through the window, you can see Chen Ke and Xie Zetian hugging each other.
Liu Xiaona was shocked. As far as she knew, Chen Ke and Lin Han had an unusual relationship, but how could they be related to Xie Zetian?
Liu Xiaona shook her head and turned back to the tent area. She felt that Chen Ke's two-timing would eventually lead to failure.
The next day, God's Supermarket opened at dawn. Song Yuqing took a lot of supplies from the shelves, such as rice, flour, outdoor cooking utensils, lunch boxes, water, etc. In short, he just filled Ruan Fanfan's bag with them.
After saying goodbye properly, Conghui carried Ruan Fanfan on his back and flew towards the sky.
Song Yuqing stood at the entrance of God's Supermarket, watching Ruan Fanfan leave. After this farewell, he didn't know when he would see her again...
As she moved away from the ground, Ruan Fanfan's sweet smile gradually faded.
"Conghui, hurry up." She still had a letter to deliver to Base No. 27.
When she was a child, Ruan Fanfan would tell Song Yuqing everything, but after so many years, she learned to be reserved.
Ruan Fanfan hopes that in Song Yuqing's hearts, she will still be a kind and innocent friend.
After seeing Ruan Fanfan off, Song Yuqing was ready to take a nap, but Master Fu came out to disturb her.
"Song Yuqing, I have to remind you that the shelves are almost empty."
"Don't worry, I will go to the parallel world to move the supplies back." Song Yuqing didn't take it too seriously.
"Hey, you can't enter the parallel world until this month has passed."
Song Yuqing was stunned.
"The manager of God's Supermarket must ensure that the shelves are always full."
Yeah, there are already several gaps on the shelves.
