Chapter 290 After failing to attract the mushroom's attention
Human flesh doesn't taste good!
Everyone says human flesh doesn't taste good, but why do humans still think that zombies would eat them?
Meng Xiaoyou patiently corrected them, giving them a fierce look: "Hand over your phones, or I'll kill you!"
The little girl looked fierce, with wide, glaring eyes that were clear and innocent, showing no sign of harm.
However, no human dared to underestimate her, because... from an angle she couldn't see, the zombies behind her were baring their teeth and claws at them.
These are a bunch of zombies that aren't too grotesque; there's no rotting flesh, no maggots, and no putrid stench.
But they all had stiff expressions, and their skin colors varied, including bluish-gray and grayish-white. Most of them had white pupils, and their black pupils were only the size of their noses. Their nostrils were upturned, and they showed their fangs. Some of the zombies even rolled up their sleeves and danced around, as if they would come over and kill all the humans if they didn't behave.
Ironically, the ignorant little girl in front of her was still lecturing: "The zombies aren't as fierce as you think. Give me your phone, and I'll let you live."
They envied her innocent and naive appearance, while the others were terrified, pointing tremblingly behind her: "You... behind you...?"
"What?" Meng Xiaoyou turned around and saw the zombies obediently tugging at their fingers, their dark pupils dilated, looking dazed and confused, as if asking: What's wrong?
You can be as obedient as you want, or as silly as you want!
Meng Xiaoyou scratched her head, then suddenly seemed to remember something, glaring fiercely at them, "Don't even think about diverting our attention! One word: give it to me or not! You're the ones who wanted to bully me, so what if you want your phone? If you don't give it to me, I'll..."
Behind her, the zombies bared their fangs, their expressions sinister and ferocious.
The group huddled together in fear.
Mushroom was quite pleased with the panic it had caused. Mimicking Sheng Jingxing's manner, it grinned, revealing a set of small white teeth: "If you don't give me a word, I'll trade you food!"
"..."
In the end, Mushroom contentedly put the two phones in her pocket, and stingily gave each of them only a piece of bread. She thought she was incredibly clever; trading bread for phones was such a good deal!
Furthermore, she managed to extract information from these humans that Academician Rong had been using medication extensively in an effort to combat the zombies. Their information was similar to what Zhou Ziming had revealed, but Zhou Ziming had obtained the information from higher-ups and was too busy to attend to the ordinary people at the base.
These people claimed that they just wanted to capture Meng Xiaoyou quickly to threaten Pei Sinian. They said that as long as Pei Sinian was sent to be experimented on, the apocalypse would end and they, as ordinary humans, would not have to sacrifice themselves.
Because... some people in the base, who clearly didn't leave, disappeared one after another. The lower-level staff would cause trouble every few days. At first, it could still stir up some waves, but after that, it never made a splash again.
The research institute is still conducting human experiments, and unlike before when they were operating in the shadows, this time they are continuing their rampant activities under the guise of protecting the future of humanity.
Apart from the Su family and the military, other forces at the base's top levels have begun to turn a blind eye.
No one can fight city hall. Whether before or after the apocalypse, individual strength is no match for powerful forces.
The timid mushroom couldn't understand why humans were so complicated, and sincerely suggested that they stay in Gong County and not go back to the base. The fragile human was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he waved his hands repeatedly: "No...no need, let's go back to the base."
From a human perspective, going back might mean being randomly captured for experiments, or even dying.
If you're in a horde of zombies, you're guaranteed to die.
Meng Xiaoyou stopped trying to keep anyone, letting the zombies grab and throw the humans wherever they wanted, and then happily went to find Pei Sinian with her phone in hand.
She was alone, and he was alone.
Pei Sinian merely glanced at it indifferently: "You let those humans go just for this?"
"A cell phone! This is a cell phone, a cell phone that will conquer humanity." Meng Xiaoyou had never played with one before. Even in the original owner's memories, there were only old-fashioned phones, and she didn't have the money to buy a smartphone.
There was a vaporized zombie before, but it was lost after a fight, so Meng Xiaoyou didn't have a chance to play with it.
She tossed Pei Sinian a phone and then hid on the sofa in the living room, playing by herself and ignoring Pei Sinian.
Pei Sinian frowned, his brow furrowed so deeply it looked like a fly was trapped between his eyebrows, and his face looked as if he had swallowed a fly. He tapped the phone that Meng Xiaoyou had given him, feeling extremely uncomfortable at the thought that it had been used by someone else.
He suppressed the urge to wash his phone with water, silently walked out, and returned half an hour later with two unopened new phones, handing them to Meng Xiaoyou: "Change the SIM card!"
They were black and white, a matching couple's set. Mushroom's eyes lit up as he held onto the new phone tightly.
"Where did you find it?"
"Just looking around." Pei Sinian sat back down nonchalantly. His search ability was very strong; he could just release his mental network at will. That's how he found those books before.
The mature, steady, and capable zombie expected to receive an admiring look from his lover. However, Meng Xiaoyou kept her head down, clumsily changing her SIM card, her attention completely elsewhere.
She barely has any communication now, but she can't get a new SIM card, so she has to use someone else's. After installing it, she only gets the pre-installed apps and a few single-click games. She can't play any more than that, but these are all very novel to Mushroom, who has never played with a mobile phone before, and she's completely hooked.
So much so that I was still watching it during dinner.
I was still watching it at night, lying on the zombie bed.
He was still looking at his phone while being kissed by a zombie.
Pei Sinian snatched the phone and threw it on the bedside table, saying coldly, "Don't let playthings distract you from your studies. We're surrounded by dangers now. You need to improve your superpowers as soon as possible."
Meng Xiaoyou stared longingly at the phone on the bedside table, then glanced at the man's cold expression. Dejected, she drooped her eyelashes and obediently covered herself with the blanket.
"Then go to sleep."
"Enhance your superpowers!"
"Go to sleep."
"Time is of the essence, humans and zombies must clash immediately..."
pat-
A small, fair, and delicate hand patted his thin lips. Mushroom said angrily, "It's late at night, I want to sleep. If you don't sleep, we'll sleep in separate rooms from now on."
Mr. Zombie: "..."
His plan failed, and he lay down silently beside her, his body lying there coldly. All night, the little fool slept soundly beside him, while he silently gritted his teeth, never closing his eyes.
How can I sleep after just starting to eat meat?
