"His name is Tong Zhan. When we found him, he was being attacked by zombies. I lured the zombies away and saved him," Han Gang explained while organizing and unloading supplies from the vehicle.
Yun Xiaoxiao, however, paid no attention to this. Instead, she kept staring at the young man with his eyes tightly closed.
This person...
Why does he look somewhat familiar?
Just then, the young man called Tong Zhan opened his eyes.
He had a boyish face, with eyes gleaming with a hint of confusion.
If he were in the entertainment industry, he'd undoubtedly be a perfect "little puppy" idol.
So pure that one would hesitate to speak harshly to him.
When Yun Xiaoxiao saw his eyes, her gaze instantly darkened.
It's him!
The mastermind behind the zombie attack on the city in her previous life, the one who ultimately caused Lu Chen's death - the Zombie King!
At that time, she had locked eyes with him as he stood among the zombie horde.
She would never forget that look in his eyes.
So innocent and pure!
At first glance, he didn't look like a zombie at all, but rather a normal human.
Yet it was this wolf in sheep's clothing who had caused the complete destruction of the base she was in, and led to Lu Chen's death at the hands of zombies!
She never expected to encounter him so early in this timeline.
Of course... she absolutely couldn't let him go!
Yun Xiaoxiao raised her eyes, and without a word, lifted Lord Slasher and swung it towards Tong Zhan.
Her eyes were cold, filled with murderous intent.
"Bang!"
An axe came flying across.
Although it was immediately split in two by Lord Slasher, it still managed to interrupt the attack's trajectory.
Tong Zhan took advantage of this moment to shift his position, barely avoiding Lord Slasher's sharp edge.
"Little one, what are you doing?" Han Gang asked, slightly bewildered as he looked at his axe now split in two.
At the same time, he quickly stepped in front of Tong Zhan.
"If there's something to say, let's talk it out. There's no need for violence."
"Move aside," Yun Xiaoxiao said, frowning with displeasure.
"Little girl, do you know Tong Zhan?" Han Gang asked.
"I don't know him..." Just have a grudge!
Before she could finish the last four words, Han Gang interrupted.
"If you don't know him, why are you swinging a blade at him the moment you see him?"
His tone became more serious.
"I know you guys are very capable, and I'm grateful that you saved my daughter and me, but that's one thing and this is another. You're just a kid, and you're trying to hack someone the moment you arrive. That's not right.
If this was before the apocalypse, what you're doing would be considered attempted murder, which is illegal and would land you in jail."
Although he was a gym coach, he had always aspired to become a police officer, so his sense of justice was overwhelming.
He would usually step in when he saw injustice, let alone witnessing Yun Xiaoxiao trying to hack someone without provocation - such a serious matter.
His inner sense of justice naturally flared up.
Yun Xiaoxiao coldly looked at him.
"How do you know he doesn't deserve to die?"
"He clearly doesn't look like a bad person, and he seems to be only seventeen or eighteen. Even if he were bad, could a child of this age really be a murderer or arsonist?
Besides, you don't even know him, what right do you have to say he deserves to die?"
Han Gang initially wanted to say 'I didn't expect someone so young to have such malicious thoughts', but considering the group's capabilities and the fact that they had just saved them, he swallowed those words.
He turned to look at Lu Chen and the others.
"Can you please talk some sense into this kid? Her personality is too violent. Killing innocents indiscriminately is wrong."
But he failed to realize who he was dealing with.
They were either indulgently fond of Yun Xiaoxiao or a bunch of psychopaths. Who would listen to him?
Although Ye Shuyuan and Du Juan were somewhat puzzled by Yun Xiaoxiao's actions, they knew her status in Lu Chen and the others' hearts, so they chose to remain silent.
After all, speaking up wouldn't change anything.
As for Feng Jin, the director of the Agricultural Sciences Academy, he had already returned to the vehicle and wasn't present.
Han Gang waited expectantly for a reaction from Lu Chen and the others, but all he got was silence.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at him as if he were a complete idiot.
Originally, she didn't want to explain, but considering his good-natured disposition, she decided to say something.
"Mister, the person behind you is not human but a zombie. If we don't kill him now, thousands or even tens of thousands of people will die later!"
The Scumbag Detection Panel had just shown that this person was 'non-human'!
In other words, he had already turned into a zombie!
"A zombie? How is that possible! He's clearly a normal human. Apart from being a bit pale, how does he resemble a zombie?" Han Gang didn't believe it.
He frowned, "You can't even come up with a better lie. You just said you didn't know him, and now you're saying he's a zombie. Your words don't add up."
Hearing Yun Xiaoxiao say that person was a zombie, Lu Chen and the others finally understood why she was so insistent on killing him.
They didn't doubt her at all, and secretly began to observe Tong Zhan.
He indeed didn't look like a zombie, but if Yun Xiaoxiao said he was, then he must be.
"If you really don't believe it, do you dare to put your hand in his mouth and let him bite you?" Nie Yizhou said, his lips curled with a hint of mockery.
"You...!" Han Gang was somewhat angry.
He stubbornly stood in front of Tong Zhan, "Anyway, no matter what you say, you can't just kill people today."
Yun Xiaoxiao was getting a headache. She pinched the bridge of her nose.
"I'll give you one more chance. Move aside, or I'll kill you too."
Her patience had worn thin, and the murderous intent in her eyes was fully visible.
Today, Tong Zhan must die!
Not only to avenge her previous life but also because...
From what Han Gang had said earlier, it could be deduced that this Tong Zhan was already able to control zombies.
If they allowed him to continue developing his abilities, who knows how many humans would die at the hands of the zombie army he would lead.
So this person must be eliminated today!
As for this older man, he was being stubborn and unreasonable. Even after being told so plainly, he wouldn't even try to verify before deciding whether to protect this person or not.
Sheltering a bad person was no different from killing people directly; if he died, he would deserve it.
Yun Xiaoxiao, who never had much sense of law to begin with, now only wanted to kill.
"Don't kill my dad!"
Han Jiajia quickly ran over from the side and grabbed Han Gang's hand.
"Dad, please step aside."
"Why should I step aside? I haven't done anything wrong. They're the ones trying to kill someone for no reason. How have I become the one in the wrong?
If they have the guts, let them kill me. I wonder if their conscience will allow it? Will they have nightmares at night!"
Han Gang stubbornly held his ground, refusing to move no matter how much Han Jiajia pulled at him.
Just then, the ice wall suddenly collapsed with a thunderous sound.
The horde of zombies surged towards them.
Compared to when they were surrounding Han Gang and his group earlier, they were now five times more frenzied!
Among them, there were even several mutated zombies!
"What's going on? Why have the zombies suddenly become so agitated?" Mu Yang furrowed his brows.
"This is bad, the zombies over there are heading towards Old Zhong and the others."
For a moment, everyone panicked.
However, having experienced their fair share of crises, they quickly regained their composure.
Ice walls, earth walls, metal walls, light shields, and black mist all sprang into action simultaneously.
Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly turned her head, staring intently at the young man sitting in the corner of the truck.
It must be him!
Just then, he slowly raised his head and flashed her a bright smile.
