My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Under the furious yet helpless gaze of the Pursuit Team, the helicopter quickly ascended and soon moved away from the building…

“Whew… We finally shook them off.” Inside the cabin, Wang Lin and the others breathed a collective sigh of relief, looking somewhat exhausted. After five days on the run and narrowly escaping right under the enemy’s nose, the release of psychological tension only amplified their physical fatigue.

“Yeah, I didn’t think this would work… But in hindsight, that building really is the tallest in the city…” Old Zheng gasped with lingering fear, his face still a bit pale, seemingly still affected by the aftereffects of the high altitude.

“So, that thing in Ling Mo’s hand is the communicator? The reason for choosing the closest route was to quickly reach the signal coverage area and call for this helicopter?” Old Lan realized with a sense of revelation.

Pushed into a corner, the sunglasses man rolled his eyes at Ling Mo near the cabin door, muttering, “Definitely one of Falcon’s people… Bold moves indeed, taking such a risky step… And blatantly revealing Falcon as a background. Planning to lay all contradictions on the table?”

Among the group, it was Ye Lian and her companions who seemed relatively calm, as the female zombies curiously peered out the window…

After closing the cabin door, the man who had fired the gun immediately turned his gaze to Ling Mo, smiling as he extended his hand. “We’ve met before. I’m one of Captain Tom’s subordinates. Name’s… just call me Jason.”

He sported a close-cropped buzzcut, a slightly dark complexion, an appearance that seemed a bit menacing, and exposed arms covered with various scars. However, his eyes were filled with genuine smiles, and there was even a hint of nostalgia.

“Call me Ling Mo,” Ling Mo responded with a slight smile, giving Jason a firm handshake. Although this man didn’t have particularly distinctive features, Ling Mo did have a vague impression of him. Ye Lian, who had been leaning at the window, also turned her head to look at the man. After staring for two seconds, she nodded slightly at Ling Mo.

“Haha, how could I do that?” Jason laughed heartily. He said, “If I dared to call you that, I’d definitely get punished when I get back, so I’ll stick with Ling-Ge.” Ling Mo could only nod in response. He glanced towards the cockpit, then asked, “Why didn’t Tom come?”

The person who received his call was Zhang Yu. As Yuwen Xuan’s deputy, he naturally wouldn’t be available. As for Yuwen Xuan… Although it was imaginable that Yuwen Xuan might have clamored to come personally, Zhang Yu would surely have stopped him. But even so, shouldn’t they have sent someone familiar like Tom?

Although this was a bit unusual, Ling Mo was just asking casually…

However, unexpectedly, when Jason heard this question, he suddenly put away his smile, leaned closer to Ling Mo, and whispered, “Let’s talk about this later. Ling-Ge, don’t ask anything now. When we get to the place, I have some information for you.”

After speaking, he made a mysterious gesture at Ling Mo and then stepped back with his gun.

Ling Mo gave him a surprised look, then frowned.

It seemed… something was off…

Half an hour later, the helicopter landed.

The landing site, however, was far beyond Ling Mo’s expectations.

“This isn’t the Second Camp,” Ling Mo said, jumping down from the cabin and turning to ask after landing.

Jason apologized, “This is Zone A of the Oil Depot. Though the conditions are a bit basic, you’ll find all the essential living facilities here. Plus, it’s not too far from the Falcon Second Camp, so please make yourselves at home for a while.”

As he spoke, he led them toward a small two-story building. “I’ll be staying here for one or two hours. During this time, I’ll do my best to answer your questions, so rest assured, Ling-Ge…”

Rest assured? Things were getting more complicated… Ling Mo’s mind was filled with doubts, but upon hearing Jason, he simply nodded in silence, refraining from immediate questioning. It wasn’t just about the sunglasses man; there was also Old Zheng, who was associated with the Central Region Camp. Since it involved the Falcon Second Camp, it was best to remain cautious…

Seeing Ling Mo’s cooperation, Jason smiled appreciatively.

As he followed Jason, Ling Mo also took the time to observe the area.

The low buildings typical of an oil depot, coupled with high perimeter walls, made it difficult to get a comprehensive view. But from the stretch of dark green wilderness visible in the distance, it was evident the location was far from any town. Zone A seemed to be a residential area, with the actual oil depot probably on the other side…

Based on these observations, Ling Mo reached one clear conclusion: this was the same oil depot he had visited before.

But why here? If they were merely here to fetch oil, that would have made sense. Yet, Jason had clearly mentioned they would be staying for a while.

Ling Mo increasingly suspected that something might have happened at the Second Camp…

The group soon arrived at the small building, and everyone, except for Ling Mo, was curiously examining their surroundings. Old Zheng was muttering to himself in confusion, while the sunglasses man glanced around with a complex expression.

“I’ll open it.”

Jason hurried forward and forcefully pushed open one of the doors.

As the rusty hinges creaked, Wang Lin immediately remarked, “How long has it been since anyone lived here…”

Just as she finished speaking, the door swung open and a cloud of dust wafted out.

Moreover, there was a faint “thump” from inside, as if something alive was lurking…

Everyone stepped back instinctively, and Xia Na peered in, clicking her tongue, “Looks like we have company.”

Jason apologized once more, “The situation is urgent, and this was arranged by the Commander…”

“Yuwen Xuan?” Ling Mo asked.

“Yes,” Jason replied, glancing past the group to the pilot and co-pilot who were also following along. Surprisingly, they had already opened their bags and were nimbly pulling out cleaning supplies. Inside their backpacks seemed to be items like blankets and other necessities.

“We packed in a hurry, so we didn’t bring much. Luckily, you have your own supplies. The weather is warm now, so a thin blanket should suffice…” Jason continued, “The pilot and co-pilot will help you clean up the place. We’ll make sure it’s clean and won’t affect your stay. Unfortunately, we can’t do much about the basic conditions, so you’ll have to bear with it for a while.”

By now, most of the dust had settled inside. The room revealed itself to be a single dormitory, complete with furniture such as tables, chairs, and beds. Amazingly, there were no bloodstains or corpses, making the cleaning task relatively straightforward. The noise from earlier came from a strange small creature now hiding under the table, glaring at Ye Lian and the others with its reddish eyes.

The presence of the Senior Zombie intimidated it from making any sudden moves, but its inherent ferocity was unmistakable. Wang Lin couldn’t help but let out a gasp, quickly taking cover behind Ling Mo.

Before the creature could act, a gunshot rang out.

Jason had just lowered his gun when a quick, nimble figure darted past him, exclaiming, “A new sample! Another new sample! The outside world is just wonderful!”

Despite dealing with this eccentric, Jason politely ignored the distraction and turned to Ling Mo, saying, “Ling-Ge, I have another favor to ask of you.”

“Go ahead.”

“While they’re cleaning, could you come with me to get some fuel?” Jason added solemnly, “If we’re taking anyone, bringing the three Sister-in-laws should suffice.”

Ling Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly, realizing it was time to discuss the important matters…
