Chapter 88 The Disguise is Exposed



The mid-level zombie moved slowly.

Suddenly, a figure flashed in front of him. This figure was even slightly faster than him. He quickly retreated and reached out with his hand in a claw shape to grab forward. The next second, he instantly lost consciousness.

Until the very moment his life ended, he didn't know what had happened.

I felt that for a moment, my mind went blank and my limbs were completely out of my control.

Lin Xi withdrew her supernatural power.

Level four mental control, within the same level, can kill without leaving a trace.

This is why Lin Xi agreed to act alone so readily.

It's just unknown how effective this ability will be against high-level zombies or other ability users stronger than her.

But hopefully it won't be as embarrassing as when I met my older sister last time, right?

Anyway, her speed has greatly improved now, so if she can't win, she can just run away. In any case, she won't die.

However, it's best to avoid encountering high-level zombies again, as escaping is physically demanding.

The ability was on cooldown and could not be used again for another minute, but Lin Xi glanced at the remaining zombies.

There's no need for all that trouble; she can resolve all the problems directly during the cooldown period of her superpower.

During these days of simulated battlefield training, she has basically mastered the secret to ending battles quickly—to strike fast and ruthlessly!

Lin Xi picked up a stick and stabbed the zombie hard in the back of the head. A crystal core fell out with each stab, and in less than a minute, a whole group of zombies collapsed.

Lin Xi packed her things, dusted them off, and went outside.

I bumped into a strong, slightly overweight man wearing loose pants, holding up his belt with both hands.

A familiar face across from him raised an eyebrow. "Little sister? What are you doing here?"

Lin Xi subconsciously took a step back. "Excuse me, who are you?"

The person opposite looked on incredulously, "Me? Little sister, you've forgotten me in less than six months?"

Lin Xi finally remembered a long-forgotten name and asked hesitantly, "Big Jar Brother?"

The person on the other end finally smiled. "Hey! I was so busy before, it was the early stages of the zombie outbreak, I was rushing to complete missions like a fool, and I still don't know your name!"

Lin Xi smiled and said, "My name is Lin Xi. Big Gang has become so handsome, I almost didn't recognize him."

Da Gang touched his face with one hand and chuckled, "I've definitely lost a lot of weight. Doing missions, you know, it's tiring and makes me thinner."

Lin Xi wasn't exaggerating. Da Gang is now a normal slightly overweight physique. After reducing his body fat percentage, the soft tissue on his face has also decreased significantly, and his three-dimensional facial features are starting to show. He's already showing the beginnings of a handsome man.

If he loses a little more weight, he'll definitely be a handsome young man.

"Xiao Xi, right? How about we get together with your brother He and brother Ming?"

Lin Xi's smile froze slightly. "That's not appropriate. You probably have other tasks to do, so just focus on your own things and don't worry about me..."

Da Gang interrupted her, "Hey, we can still meet after so long, which means we're destined to meet! You haven't seen Brother Ming and Tang He for so long, you should at least meet them and say hello, right? Go see your Brother Ming and the others, they may look fierce, but they're actually very nice people."

Lin Xi resisted fiercely, remaining unmoved despite his pulling and pushing.

"Stop dawdling, it's been ages, Big Vat, what are you doing?"

Lin Xi rolled her eyes, feeling like she was about to faint!

Help! The creditors are here!

She managed to evade them twice with the disguise pill, but even lost her real name in the process. Now, is she finally going to be unable to escape them?

Tang He wore a black iron chain around his waist, with a strangely shaped, short, pointed cone about half a palm's width hanging from the top, which was shiny silver.

He saw Lin Xi and his lips curled slightly. "Isn't this Xiao Lin?"

Lin Xi's smile looked more like a grimace.

Big Jar looked surprised. "How do you know her?"

Lin Xi: ...

Wait a minute! The big jar's words reminded her that when she was Lin Xi, she seemed to have never introduced herself to them.

Why does he call himself Xiaolin?

She was a little confused.

I vaguely remember that she seemed to have said, "You can call me Xiaolin," but that was after she took the disguise pill, when she met Lu Mingxing and his car on the road after she parted ways with her older sister.

Lin Xi smiled awkwardly, "I don't think I introduced myself before, Brother Tang He, are you mistaken?"

"How could I possibly get it wrong? Back in college, your brother He was always in the top three of my major." Tang He said with a half-smile. "You think I'm that easy to fool? You think I wouldn't recognize you just because you changed your face? Little Lin sister?"

Lin Xi felt numbness in her limbs and felt completely unable to move.

What does that mean? When did he discover it?

Tang He smiled knowingly, "Stop pretending. You gave yourself away on the first day at the lumber mill. Is it fun to change your expression like that?"

"I..." Lin Xi really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into at this moment. So, all those two disguise pills of hers were completely useless?

No wonder she said that Tang He always looked at her strangely. Was he deliberately watching her act?

"What are you talking about?" Big Jar looked completely bewildered.

Tang He glanced at him, crossed his arms, and his face clearly showed some disgust. "The one who gave you the vaccine from the lumber mill, and the little girl you met later at the Wind Eagle Regiment, they were all your good little sister."

For the first time, Lin Xi felt the embarrassment of her disguise being exposed. Da Gang was probably very disappointed in her, since she had lied to him so many times!

"Oh, it's you!" Big Jar clapped his hands. "I knew it! I knew it! Looks like my sister likes me the most out of the three of us!"

Lin Xi: ...

ah?

Is this the kind of place he's focusing on?

Isn't this going a bit too far off track?

Tang He, looking utterly hopeless, shrugged and said, "Never mind..."

“Since you know it was me, then why…” Lin Xi couldn’t bring herself to say that she had stolen the zombie crystal core.

Tang He naturally knew what she wanted to say, so he said calmly, "Brother Ming is right. To be honest, without your zombie virus vaccine, Da Gang and I would probably have just been waiting to die. Since you saved our lives, we naturally won't pursue those material possessions."

"Well, I had no choice. Besides, I even gave you the mid-level zombie crystal core back then, so I don't owe you anything." But to be honest, Lin Xi had indeed stolen from them twice, so he was somewhat lacking in confidence.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense. If you want something, just say it directly. You don't need to use your psychic abilities." Tang He glanced at her coldly. "Earth element enhancement? They actually believed that."

Lin Xi's eyes widened. "You even know this?"

"Your height is quite distinctive," Tang He clicked his tongue. "We can't help but recognize you."
