Chapter 56: Her Love Began From Death
“So, I’ve already become a zombie. It’s not a big deal, right? I don’t feel much different from before.”
Perhaps it’s because my corpse was “fresh” and more intact.
At this moment, Li Nai had gotten off me and was sitting to the side, pulling at her skirt.
She crossed her legs, tightly covering her lower body, her entire face turning red, putting on a look of a young lady filled with shame and outrage.
“Waaaa, I’ll never get married…”
I don’t quite understand her boundaries of shame.
Last time, this guy even wanted to take off her clothes in front of me to show me—.-. To be precise, the secret parts hidden beneath were what I saw. Is her sense of shame only the difference of a layer of cloth?
By the way, does a zombie’s body temperature also rise to the point of reddening the skin?
I remember that zombies lose eighty to ninety percent of their bodily functions, and their internal organs turn into slime, right?
So, attacking a zombie’s body is not very effective. If you can’t dismember it completely like Xue Qing, you still need to aim for the head to disable its mobility.
As for Li Qin, it seems she still retains some bodily functions. I’ll ask her again after she recovers.
I took off my clothes and washed off the urine Li Nai-chan had spilled on me. I took the opportunity provided by the water to also wash off the bloodstains on my chest, revealing a wound about an inch long. Although the wound wasn’t bandaged, it had stopped bleeding. Seeing this wound finally gave me the feeling of, “I really have become a zombie.” I could move now and shove this piece of clothing into Li Nai’s mouth, letting her taste her own “holy water.”
On second thought, I shouldn’t go through with that idea. It’s a touching reunion time, after all.
However, such a big commotion…
Her title had changed to [Witch of Calamity]. Her aura…
Thinking about it, my eyes are getting a bit blurry. It’s not my eyes malfunctioning, is it?
Her aura also felt different. To be together again, that Ji Lianbing, this will never change.
Never mind, no matter what she becomes, there’s more… This is the joy of life and the smile of a heartfelt reunion.
As if inviting her to dance, I extended my right hand to her.
“Shouldn’t you give me a big hug at this moment?”
Others used it as a toilet? Maybe it’s full of a strange smell now.”
“Oh, I don’t want to. Jun Cheng, your chest was used as a toilet?”
“Stop talking about it! There’s no strange smell! It’s just water that went around inside me!”
“It still smells a bit… Why is it yellow?”
“That, that’s… Ahhhh!” Li Qin, hugging her knees, curled herself into a ball, utterly ashamed.
Perhaps recalling that scene again, her gaze and mine…
She crumpled into a ball, completely embarrassed to show her face.
A hug of return.
I persisted in thinking that it would be better to let her adjust her mood. Since my dear girlfriend is unwilling to give me a hug…
I’ll have to let it go with regret then.
So, this matter is finally almost over. I’ll call Xue Qing and the others, and then we’ll go back.
Casually discarding the clothes, I walked to Lian Bing’s side, preparing to call her and Li Nai.
However, Lian Bing suddenly looked up, extended her hands to cup my face, and looked me in the eyes, revealing a dazzling smile.
“But, if I don’t hug you, Jun Cheng, now… it would be a huge regret in the future.”
“Aren’t you afraid of getting dirty?”
“I don’t mind.”
“Then come on, I’ve been ready for a long time.”
She immediately hugged my neck and buried my head in her ample chest. With one hand, I slung my arm around her slender waist. The embrace felt oppressive, tightly connecting us.
The sound of a steady, fast heartbeat transmitted to my ears from our chests pressed together.
Although my heart wasn’t beating, I could feel her heartbeat.
“You won’t leave me again, right?”
“I think… I won’t.”
“Don’t add uncertain words.”
“I won’t leave you.”
“Mm, definitely not.”
“You promised, I’m keeping it in mind, okay? If you break your promise, no matter where you go, I will find you.”
“What a suffocating love…”
“No, I like it very much.”
I patted Lian Bing’s back, signaling her to let go, and then stroked her head, saying.
“Let’s go back.”
“I want to kiss you now.”
“That’s probably not possible. You’ll get infected.”
“It’s fine even if I become a zombie.”
“I mind. I don’t want you to become a zombie too.”
“It looks like there’s no difference anyway.”
“I think there’s a difference.”
Looking the same and being completely the same are two different things, just like the vast difference in price between genuine and counterfeit products. Zombies and humans still have fundamental differences.
To be precise, I am no longer a living person, but half dead. I must never forget this.
“How is it, Jun Cheng?”
“How is what?”
“How does it feel to be a zombie?”
“Rather than how it feels, it’s more like certain sensations are gone.”
Sensations like touch are still there, but they seem to have become duller. However, hearing seems to have become more sensitive.
Now, when I clench my fist, I can’t feel the warmth of my palm.
I felt my bones creak and my joints make an ominous sound. Startled, I quickly let go and shook my hand.
“It seems that when the restriction of the brain is removed, it can unleash the human body’s extreme physical abilities.”
“Of course! Don’t underestimate a zombie’s physical ability!”
“Woah! But if you don’t use it well, you might hurt yourself.”
“Oh, you’re revived, Li Nai. You’ve climbed out of the shadow of your nether regions.”
“Waaahh~ Waaahh~ I can’t hear you~ Don’t make me remember that again!”
It seems she still hasn’t forgotten. It might have become a psychological trauma.
It’s her own fault, so I will never pity this shameless zombie who wanted me to drink her urine.
This is the muscle fiber. And as time passes, these muscles will…
When ordinary humans exercise, they actually tear their muscle fibers. With time, they are repaired and strengthened to a state tougher than before. This is called super-regeneration. But.
This is not the case for zombies. Every use will cause its functions to decline further, so be careful to protect your body, Jun Cheng.”
“There’s no regenerative function, meaning injuries won’t heal. Is that what you mean?”
“Under normal circumstances, yes. But there are ways to repair the body, so it’s not that serious.”
Li Nai raised her eyebrows at me and said in a veiled tone.
This means the organization has a way to repair zombie bodies.
“Ah, I was once in a daze and got hit by a car, ending up all mangled. Ahaha~”
The driver must have been terrified out of his mind by you. How many people have you given psychological trauma to?
Li Nai didn’t seem to care at all and continued to educate me on zombie knowledge, trying to guide me, a novice zombie.
When I was in the Investigation Department, I didn’t think this guy acted like a senior. Now he’s putting on airs.
“One more thing you need to know, Jun Cheng. We are not ordinary zombies; we are ‘awakened’ zombies.”
“Is there any difference?”
“Of course there is! We awakened zombies can ‘use our brains’!”
…Haha, that joke is hilarious.
After the two snorted, they looked at Li Nai with the eyes of a fool. Lian Bing also looked at her with the same disdainful gaze as me.
“What kind of eyes are those? You’re talking about me, acting recklessly, not knowing what’s going on in your head, you silly zombie.”
“Heh heh heh, my dear, you’re so right. Let’s kiss.”
Eh? Is Lian Bing this kind of person?
As she spoke, Lian Bing rewarded me with a kiss, signaling… Ji Lianbing… Besides teasing me, she would only make such intimate gestures.
If it were Ruansui, she might act like this, but this… this is the first time.
But that was when they were alone. To be so blatant in front of others.
This character design is a bit off. Suddenly making such a lover-like move. I’m not a masochist. Although becoming a zombie is very…
You don’t habitually use venomous words to mock me, and it feels a little unaccustomed. The more…
Suitable to be a submissive. But I’m really not a submissive.
“Wow, you’ve made me so angry! You two adulterous couple are ganging up on me! I’m so angry!”
Li Nai was immediately indignant, rolled her eyes, and continued.
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with you. What I meant by ‘using our brains’ is that we can control our bodies.”
“Isn’t that nonsense?”
“Anyone can control their own body, right?”
“Ordinary zombies can’t do that, and they can’t make their bodies function. But after awakening, our minds are re-stimulated, and some functions are restored. For example, my stomach still works, and its efficiency is even higher than that of humans. My bone marrow can also produce blood. Although the yield is low, and my heart doesn’t beat, with extremely elastic blood vessels, blood can still flow slowly and circulate, instead of coagulating in the blood vessels.”
“Isn’t this almost the same as a living person!”
No wonder Li Nai can eat so much without any problems. So, her internal organs can still function!
“Zombies are actually different from traditional zombies. Rather than becoming living dead, they have obtained an opportunity for evolution through death.”
“Humans can only use 5% of their brains, but zombies have no limits. Do you understand what I mean?”
He said, narrowing his eyes, as if contemplating his future path.
“Then Li Nai, do you have any special abilities?”
“Does eating a lot count?”
“Special abilities are ultimately just theoretical…”
“Mm, it seems to be only theoretical. Special abilities are something that…”
It sounds impressive, but it’s actually useless.
Still, being able to become a little closer to humans is some consolation.
“Let’s put those unimportant things aside for now. Give me the medicine.”
“Uh, what?”
Lian Bing suddenly reached out to Li Nai, asking for something. For a moment, neither Li Nai nor I reacted.
“The medicine you mentioned that can prevent zombie virus infection.”
Jun Cheng isn’t even in a hurry, why is Lian Bing so anxious?
“Ah, that. I don’t have it on me right now. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“Didn’t you call me a whore? Of course, I have to do what a whore should do. Heh heh.”
*Splurt* x2
What explosive remarks!
Damn it, she really wants me!
Lian Bing! What’s wrong with you, Lian Bing! You’re really poisonous today! This is nothing like you!
Lian Bing is really strange at the moment, constantly panting. Her face is flushed, and she exudes allure, like a mating female cat, rubbing against me with all parts of her body.
Her hot breath sprayed onto my face, moist and slippery. So dangerous. I’m about to…
“Jun Cheng, you’re a zombie now, right?”
“Ah, ah… So what…?”
“Heh heh heh, zombies are also ‘corpses’, you little fool.”
Her eyes were almost shaped like hearts, and her pinkish name, along with the title [Full of Love and Strong Desire]…
What is going on with this overwhelming sense of…
Her current aura badge has changed to [Witch of Calamity], but before it was “Necroph.”
… Thinking back to that day, I always wanted to correct her twisted values. Half of the reason I joined the organization was for…
I still couldn’t correct her, and instead, a huge change occurred.
But now, not only did I fail to… but also… with her overwhelming affection.
I died, and then resurrected as a zombie…
This means I have become her “ideal type,” and it’s not an exaggeration.
However, suddenly like this, I find it a bit… hard to accept.
… I mean, after I get the medicine, I’ll find a suitable day to…
“Um, Young Miss Lian Bing, now is not the time for intimacy.”
“I want it now~ Heh heh, Jun Cheng, hug… me?”
… The overwhelming emotion is getting bigger.
On one hand, it’s the opposite of the original Lian Bing, which is surprisingly charming.
But, what’s impossible is impossible!
“If you want to flirt, go back and do it later! Are you going to have a quickie out here?”
Well said, Li! Just for this remark, the incident where you peed on me like a puppy earlier is forgiven!
I continued to persuade her.
“Li Qin is right. It’s too open here, isn’t it? Be good, we have something important to do later, okay?”
“Then it’s settled?”
“Mm mm, settled.”
“If you go back on your word, I’ll dig out your heart, Jun Cheng?”
My heart… She probably would do it…
But at this moment, I had no choice but to promise her.
“I know, I’ll agree to everything.”
“… You better be, Jun Cheng.”
She clung to me, not wanting to get down. I had no choice but to pick her up.
Li Nai rolled her eyes and walked away first. I followed behind her with Lian Bing in my arms.
Seeing her clinging to me in my embrace, I felt a complex mixture of joy and worry.
At this moment, her ‘love that began from death’ is truly beginning.
Now that she no longer obsesses over my corpse…
But she has become a bit like a yandere… She wouldn’t…
… What the hell is going on…
