Soon, Xu Mo brought Amy and Andrea and hurried to Hershel's house.
At this moment, Hershel and Beth were standing at the door of the house with serious expressions.
Seeing Xu Mo coming, Hershel's eyes flashed with anxiety. He hurried to Xu Mo and asked anxiously:
"Xu Mo, what was that gunshot just now?"
Xu Mo looked straight at Hershel with a calm expression and replied calmly:
"The zombies in the barn were released, but I dealt with them all in time."
Hearing this, Hershel's face turned pale instantly, and his already frowned brows tightened even more:
"The zombies in the barn were released. Who was it?"
Xu Mo was about to answer when Maggie, Otika and Patricia also came out of the house in a hurry.
Seeing Xu Mo, Maggie was slightly startled at first, then nodded politely to Xu Mo, then turned to look at Hershel and said:
"Dad, we've searched the whole house and we can't find Jimmy."
Hearing Maggie's words, Hershel's gaze quickly turned to Maggie, his eyes full of doubts.
"Didn't find Jimmy?" Hershel murmured in a low voice, his tone full of confusion. Thinking of what Xu Mo had just said, he couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.
He stared at Xu Mo and asked anxiously, "Could it be that Jimmy..."
Xu Mo's expression was solemn. He nodded slowly and replied, "Yes, it was Jimmy who opened the barn door and released the zombies."
"What did you say? Jimmy released the zombies in the barn? He doesn't look like the kind of person who would do such a thing." Maggie opened her eyes wide, her face full of surprise, and spoke in shock.
Beth was also in disbelief. She shook her head and said, "Yeah, how could Jimmy do such a thing? He has no reason to do that!"
But just as she finished speaking, Beth seemed to suddenly remember something, her eyes dimmed instantly, she immediately lowered her head and remained silent, a complicated expression flashed across her face.
Hershel keenly noticed Beth's abnormality and soon realized the reason.
He looked at Beth softly and asked softly, "Beth, did you and Jimmy have any conflict tonight?"
Beth hesitated for a moment, a struggle flashing in her eyes, and finally she said, "I'm breaking up with Jimmy tonight."
"Break up!? Is this true, Beth? Why did you break up with Jimmy for no reason?" Maggie asked with a puzzled look on her face and a frown on her face.
Although she knew that Beth didn't have much feelings for Jimmy, it wasn't to the point where they had to break up, otherwise they wouldn't have been together before.
Hershel also turned his gaze to Beth, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
He didn't like Jimmy very much in the first place, and was very angry when he found out that Beth and Jimmy were dating.
During their relationship, he had repeatedly advised Beth that Jimmy was unreliable and asked her not to be with him, but Beth was unwilling to listen to him at the time.
Now Beth actually took the initiative to break up with Jimmy, which made him feel a little puzzled and unbelievable.
Beth didn't say anything. She slowly raised her head with a hint of shyness in her eyes. After glancing at Xu Mo, she quickly lowered her head again, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Hershel and Maggie also followed Beth's gaze, and their eyes finally fell on Xu Mo.
They were not fools. The moment they saw Xu Mo, they immediately understood the cause and effect.
It's obvious that Beth has fallen in love with Xu Mo.
Then, because of Xu Mo, Beth broke up with Jimmy. After the breakup, Jimmy felt resentful towards Xu Mo, so he planned to open the zombies in the barn to kill Xu Mo. As a result, all the zombies in the barn were killed by Xu Mo.
Hershel glanced at Beth again, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes, then turned to look at Xu Mo and asked, "Xu Mo, where is Jimmy? How is Jimmy now?"
After Hershel asked, the others behind him also cast curious glances at Xu Mo.
They were also curious to know Jimmy's current situation.
"After the barn door was opened, Jimmy was bitten to death by the zombies in the barn." Xu Mo sighed slightly, shook his head with emotion, and a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this, Hershel, Beth, Maggie and others fell silent, and a heavy atmosphere filled the air.
Although Jimmy's fate was entirely his own fault, he had lived with them for two months after all. Although they could not say they were sad about Jimmy's death, they did feel some emotion and pity in their hearts.
Beth's emotions were also very complicated. Her eyes were a mixture of shock, relief, and sadness. She had never expected Jimi to do such a cruel thing just because she asked him to break up. At the same time, she was also a little relieved that she had broken up with Jimi in time. If she hadn't broken up, she couldn't believe how difficult her life would be with Jimi in the future.
And compared to Jimmy, she cares more about her mother and Shane. She just heard Xu Mo say that he had dealt with the zombies in the barn, so her mother and Shane must be among them.
Although she knew that her mother and Shane had turned into zombies, they were still her mother and brother after all, and that could not be changed even if they turned into zombies, so she still wanted to take another look at their remains.
She slowly raised her head, her eyes full of pleading, and looked at Xu Mo and said in a tearful voice: "Xu Mo, can you take us to see Mom and Shane?"
