My Girlfriend is a Zombie

1

At the sudden approach of the roaring sound, Glasses Man and the others were momentarily stunned. A few Falcon Members who were preparing to advance with guns instinctively paused and looked around with suspicion. Numerous buildings towered nearby, some of them quite tall, and standing on this Rooftop actually limited their view somewhat.

Luo Ming listened intently for a moment and almost instinctively blurted out, “Helicopter! It’s that Helicopter!” His expression immediately turned grim. According to their original plan, this aircraft wasn’t supposed to come back… Even if the Pilot was held hostage, such a situation shouldn’t arise, unless… someone on that chopper intended to go down with them!

When planning this operation, they had prepared for various potential scenarios. Capturing Ling Mo alive inevitably required taking some risks, but according to their calculations, these risks could be minimized. Even if there were threats against the Pilot, without being able to control the Helicopter, those people were unlikely to take any drastic actions. Moreover, the Pilots were well-prepared for this, so no matter the level of intimidation, they wouldn’t alter their course of action.

It was an absolute advantage! Because the power and choices were entirely in their hands! No matter how strong Ling Mo was, he had to concede in such a situation. But what was happening now? Judging by the proximity of the sound, it seemed the Helicopter might already have reached the back of the tall buildings…

“What’s going on?” Glasses Man’s expression changed instantly, but no one could answer his question, except… Ling Mo!

Just one or two seconds later, the Helicopter swiftly appeared above a tall building. At a distance of about one to two hundred meters, the Cabin door suddenly opened. As the dark muzzle of a gun emerged at the door, a foreboding sense surged in Glasses Man’s heart, and he immediately shouted frantically, “Grab Ling Mo!”

But as soon as he finished speaking, two muffled grunts were heard simultaneously, followed by a sudden burst of gunfire. One bullet even grazed past Glasses Man’s shoulder, and as a sharp pain hit, he let out a scream. He instinctively dove to the ground, and the Falcon Members standing in front of him reacted in the same manner. Most of them had their attention diverted in that moment, and many didn’t even comprehend what was happening, being suppressed by the gunfire to the point they couldn’t lift their heads.

Some, however, immediately began to return fire, and for a moment, the sound of intense gunfire echoed through the area.

Glasses Man looked up, pale-faced, nearly coughing up blood in shock. The figures that had been inside the Cabin had already rushed to the edge of the Rooftop amid the chaos, choosing a route that avoided the crossfire between both sides, now calmly jumping down. As he turned his gaze there, the girl holding the Sniper Rifle was staring at him with wide eyes, and recalling that extremely dangerous shot earlier, he quickly deduced that the shot came from this girl!

“Didn’t expect anyone to hit me within my Superpower range… that was close!” Glasses Man trembled all over as a searing pain hit his shoulder again.

And Ling Mo, who was exchanging fire with them? He was actually standing there too!

What made Glasses Man feel even more suffocated was that Ling Mo didn’t even have a gun in his hand! The ones shooting back at them were actually those two Pilots!

The Pilot holding the gun was almost in tears. When the roaring sound first appeared, he was dragged out by the long-haired girl, and then heard the young man say with a smile, “I’ll give you a gun in a moment, and you’ll stay put here and shoot at your comrades; if I see you make any move…”

“Thunk!”

The sudden chill of a small hole forming in the crotch of his pants caused the Pilot to collapse in panic. “Help!” he screamed, firing his weapon while letting out piercing cries. Watching the bullets hit the ground around him, the flying cement debris stung his entire body, causing him to scream even louder.

The Co-pilot’s expression wasn’t much better; given their prone position, they couldn’t see Ling Mo and his group at all. He didn’t dare turn his head to look, let alone aim the gun at them… The only small relief was that Ling Mo didn’t force them to take careful aim and shoot… Though, for these two non-combatants, their marksmanship wasn’t much better than Ling Mo’s.

“Ling Mo!”

The moment Ling Mo locked eyes with Glasses Man, a slight smile appeared on his face. He grabbed Mu Chen by the arm and mouthed towards Glasses Man: “Bye…”

“Get him!” Glasses Man shouted angrily.

But amid his shouting, Ling Mo took a light step back, suddenly stepping into thin air. Mu Chen, being pulled along, tipped backward involuntarily, letting out a scream, “Ah…! Oh no! Could you give a warning first?!”

As Ling Mo vanished, Glasses Man’s expression turned extremely ferocious, his gaze fixated on the two Pilots. Suddenly, he let out a deep growl, “Still shooting? Stop it!” His voice seemed to carry a strange power, causing both of them to collapse simultaneously and the gunfire to cease immediately.

But just as Glasses Man was about to stand up, an unsettling sensation crept over him again. Instinctively, he looked up at the Helicopter, then shouted in a suddenly altered voice, “Get inside the building, now!”

“Rat-a-tat-tat!”

The gunfire that had just ceased started up again, but this time, it was the Helicopter they had intended to use against Ling Mo that spewed the fiery assault…

As Old Zheng shouted and fired his gun, he lamented inwardly, “Why?! Why have I inexplicably ended up at odds with Falcon again?! All my missions have been sabotaged by that bastard Ling Mo! In all of X City, he’s the only one left. I can only ally with him!”

The only one smiling was the sunglasses man, who licked his lips in excitement and thought to himself, “This is really satisfying. I never expected Ling Mo to turn against his partners because of this. It seems my intelligence was even more useful than I thought. Even without setting out to search, they’re already fighting among themselves. What if I leaked some of the information Niepan collected to him? Could that lead him straight to his doom? This plan might work!”

As Glasses Man and his group scrambled into the building, a few stray bullets were fired towards the Helicopter, even near the Cabin door. The shooting from these Falcon Members was evidently more accurate than Old Zheng’s. After holding out for just a few seconds, he ducked back into the Cabin and shouted, “Go!”

The Pilot immediately complied, swiftly landing the Helicopter behind the tall building. However, at this moment, both he and the Co-pilot wore expressions of utmost cooperation. Yet, what appeared before them wasn’t the tall building in reality but a series of dilapidated structures overrun with decaying vegetation… And those inside the Cabin with them weren’t Old Zheng’s group, but “Falcon Members” dressed similarly.

The Co-pilot displayed a fervent expression, muttering, “This is great! We’re about to fly out of this damned place… It’s a pity we didn’t completely take down those Monsters earlier. Such a shame…”

Lan Lan rushed to the window and, with a sigh of satisfaction, exclaimed, “How exciting, an aerial shootout! I really wish I could have fired a shot too! It’s such a pity. Next time, I need to learn how…”

“Alright, if it weren’t for my Illusion this time…” Old Zheng managed to catch his breath twice before suddenly jumping up, “That’s right! He did it on purpose. He wanted to use my Illusion! Damn it! I’m not done with him, really not done!”

“Find a place to land quickly. Didn’t you hear them say the fuel is limited?” Wang Lin reminded them, exasperated. “Besides, this isn’t Ling Mo’s fault; the Falcons made the first move…” She shot an annoyed glance at the two flight crew members and said, “These two dared to threaten us like they’re untouchable in the air. They really think we can’t do anything to them up here…”

Old Zheng shook his head with a wry smile. “We’ve boarded Ling Mo’s pirate ship…”

Meanwhile, Ling Mo and his group, who had jumped down to the corner of the street, regrouped. Mu Chen, still shaky, leaned on his knees and asked, “So what’s next? Do we trap them in the building? But it looks like there are many exits, so it won’t be that simple… there might even be traps inside.”

“We can’t go in.” Xia Na looked up at the building and said, “They’re using this building as a stronghold, so something’s definitely off. Even if not, they could shoot at us from the hallways, completely suppressing us. Especially that Glasses Man…”

Ling Mo cautioned, “Xia Na, be careful with the sweeping generalizations…”

“I meant that specifically!” Xia Na rolled her eyes and continued, “That guy… there’s something odd about him. Ye Lian tried to ambush him, but somehow she missed. Even the people around him seem hard to hit.”

“It’s his Superpower… If he’s been sent to deal with me, he must be pretty strong. Fortunately, they only know the old me; our numbers this time caught them off guard, leading to the earlier scene,” Ling Mo explained. “For now, let’s get out of here. They won’t let me just walk away; I’d bet they’ve got people guarding the exits too…”

As Ling Mo and his group started to move along the street, a furious roar suddenly erupted from within the building…

1. Pirate Ship(贼船):

   “The phrase ‘boarding someone’s pirate ship’ is a metaphor in Chinese. It means getting involved in a risky or dubious venture, often reluctantly or unknowingly, similar to being tricked or trapped into a situation that’s hard to get out of.”
