My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Meanwhile, inside Falcon Second Camp.

This was an office located on the top floor. In the somewhat sparse room, there were two people standing.

One of them was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Before his gaze, a red falcon flag was fluttering in the wind on a flagpole. His bloodshot eyes occasionally flashed a hint of coldness, as if he were staring directly at the falcon.

The other person stood behind him, holding a report and reading aloud, “The Main Camp has already conducted a count of the number of aircraft we have, including several fighter jets that are currently out of commission. They’ve also started investigating our personnel situation, and I’ve been trying to delay them on that… Additionally,” the man suddenly looked up, his face grim, “they are requesting to inspect our warehouse and register all the supplies…”

The person by the window suddenly waved his hand and said, “We’ll talk about those matters later… Zhang Yu, what about Ling Mo?”

“Sigh… Jason has already sent back a message using our code, saying that everything has been arranged. Ling Mo is currently staying at the Oil Depot. But Yuwen Xuan, are we really going to pin all our hopes on Ling Mo? You know he can’t take on the entire camp alone…” Zhang Yu said in a low, helpless voice.

Yuwen Xuan abruptly turned his head, his eyes showing a hint of madness as he said, “Falcon won’t deploy the entire camp either! I know exactly how much strength they can muster… Distance is our first barrier! Otherwise, they wouldn’t have chosen to compromise in the first place. Now they no longer want to continue compromising. They want to further test my limits and force me to relinquish my power… These things aren’t just mine; at least the Air Force Corps isn’t mine.”

A faint smile suddenly appeared on his lips, and his tone became eerily calm: “Falcon wants to take more than just from me; they want from him too. I can’t even tolerate this, so how could Ling Mo? Just wait, he’ll get everything back from Falcon with interest. This affair needs him, and he must be part of it.”

Zhang Yu was stunned for a moment, then sighed softly, shaking the report in his hand. “The time they’re giving us is getting shorter… You… should make a decision soon.”

“No…” Yuwen Xuan shook his head, saying, “It’s them; they’re the ones running out of time.” Then he grinned widely and suddenly burst into laughter, “Ahahaha…”

Zhang Yu stared at Yuwen Xuan in shock for a few moments, then sighed softly, already feeling a headache coming on. “This madness is incurable… But,” he paused, his eyes suddenly brightening, “maybe we can actually look forward to it…”

…

“I really can’t wait to see how they’ll perform…”

In another office, a young man in his twenties was speaking with a smile.

He was dressed in a well-tailored suit, with neatly trimmed short hair and a small tuft of hair styled with hair spray. As he spoke, he leaned back on a leather sofa, contentedly stroking the armrest. “This place is really nice. Although it’s a bit secluded, the facilities are well-equipped, and life here is quite enjoyable.”

“By the way, I heard that Ling Mo used to live here, is that true?” He suddenly leaned forward and asked.

A woman responded, casually setting down an ornament she had been examining. “I heard that too. When I said I wanted to stay here, that guy called Tom refused. If it weren’t for you insisting on coming over to learn more about him, I wouldn’t have sneaked you in.”

“What’s the big deal?” The young man sneered, “He’s just an outsider. Why should he have special privileges? Yuwen Xuan gave him privileges, and look where that got him? And Su Qianrou, that woman is in no better shape now… Who knows, this place might be mine in the future…” He looked around the room with satisfaction, then stood up proudly. “Let’s go. The next time I come in here, I’ll be the master of this place. But before that happens, I do hope he comes back once more.”

The woman opened her mouth as if to say something but remained silent, glancing around as she walked out. As the door closed, she couldn’t help but think to herself, “Even if he does come back, he probably won’t be walking in here alive… But if he knew about what’s happening here, he probably wouldn’t dare come back, would he? Sigh…”

After having dinner at the Dormitory, Ling Mo shifted his focus to the Oil Depot. More precisely, he concentrated on the mutation beasts coming to scavenge for food. However, he didn’t need to handle this personally. With Yu Shiran and Xiao Bai around, they could easily draw out the mutation beasts one by one and find ways to hunt them down.

To be cautious, Ling Mo sent Ye Lian and the others over as well, while he stayed attuned to the situation through the psychic link.

The three female Zombies finally got a chance to “stretch their legs.” They eagerly distanced themselves from the crowds and quickly disappeared down the road leading to Zone B. This scene left Ling Mo a bit helpless. No matter what, it seemed they preferred to stay away from humans. Their instinctual craving for battle and slaughter, however, hadn’t diminished at all.

Before long, the sound of agonized howls echoed from the direction of the Oil Depot, occasionally mixed with Xiao Bai’s excited “MeGu” noises. Only Ling Mo could pick up on these details; the others would feel only a growing tension.

“It’s a shame that Black Silk won’t tell me what happened before. I wonder if they discovered something out in the wilderness…” Ling Mo thought with some frustration.

At that moment, he suddenly tensed, turning his head, only to relax again as he said, “Oh, it’s you…”

“Hmm…” A voice responded from the shadows by the wall, and a person stepped out to stand beside Ling Mo. She placed her hands on the railing in front of her and looked out into the distance along with him. “What are you looking at?”

“Just looking around,” Ling Mo replied.

Xu Shuhan fell silent. Though her expression was hidden beneath a mask, Ling Mo could see from the side that her lips were pressed tightly together.

After a while, she suddenly smiled and said, “I don’t believe you. I know they’re over there-I can smell the blood. You know? The wind’s blowing this way.”

Seeing Ling Mo remain silent, Xu Shuhan gently exhaled and said, “When I smell the scent, my body wants to go over there, but my mind is scared. I remember how I used to think when I was human, but now I feel like maybe I was wrong back then… But when I think about it more, at least I still know what fear is, which makes me different from other Zombies…” She suddenly paused and said softly, “Sorry, I didn’t mean it that way…”

“It’s okay… To me, they’re different from other Zombies, and so are you,” Ling Mo replied with an easy smile.

Xu Shuhan seemed somewhat moved. After a moment of thought, she said, “You’re different from other humans too… I mean, in your attitude toward Zombies.”

“I’ll take that as a compliment,” Ling Mo replied.

He couldn’t help but glance at Xu Shuhan again. Although this former female host had turned into a Zombie, traces of her past self occasionally flickered through her words and actions. However, when faced with other humans and Zombies, these traces often turned into a part of her fear, something she unconsciously ignored.

“Ling Mo, I’ve been thinking…” Xu Shuhan spoke up again. “Will I ever be able to talk peacefully with others like I do with you? Not with a mask on, but face-to-face with other humans?” As she spoke, she suddenly reached out and slowly removed her mask.

In the moment her blood-red eyes were revealed, Ling Mo could vaguely see a hint of moisture in them… But quickly, those eyes disappeared from his view, replaced by a subtle fragrance at the tip of his nose.

Xu Shuhan rested her head on his shoulder, gently wrapping her arms around him, and whispered, “Don’t move, let me take in your scent. You’re the only human I can do this with now. Honestly, I’m a bit scared-I’m afraid I won’t be able to smell it ever again, and I’m afraid that one day, when I want to, I might not be able to resist biting…”

“You…”

Ling Mo had just begun to form some speculations, but as he was about to ask, Xu Shuhan interrupted him, “No need for questions. If you want to talk, just tell me your stories. I can sense that you care for them deeply, right? Don’t worry, I won’t record any of this. Even if I were to record, it would only be in my mind.”

As she said this, she let out a soft laugh, and the grip of her arm seemed to tighten a bit.

Ling Mo pondered for a moment, then nodded, “Alright, I’ll start from the day I met Ye Lian…”

Under the night sky, Ling Mo and Xu Shuhan stood quietly on the topmost Corridor. Meanwhile, down on the ground below, a lone figure was looking up at them.

Wang Lin glared at them with discontent, then huffed loudly, “Vixen! Casanova! Just you wait!”

Sensing something, Ling Mo glanced downwards but found nothing unusual.

The moonlit clearing was empty, with only Old Lan’s calls occasionally echoing from a room below, followed by the muffled shouts of Mu Chen. The instructor was quite irritable, yet his voice was kept low, “Damn it! Old man, can you keep it down?!… Hey, girl, what are you doing with the gun?!… You with the dead eyes, what are you staring at? Get back to writing your stuff…”

“Haha…” Xu Shuhan suddenly laughed, and as she did, her grip on Ling Mo’s arm grew even tighter.
