Awooo, there are little zombies today too.

As soon as she finished speaking, the magic mushroom excitedly opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Liang Yuncheng's head in one gulp.

Liang Yuncheng died without even uttering a scream. His blood mixed with the orange-red soil and was washed away by the rain, disappearing without a trace.

Yu Qingyin stretched and walked back to the villa as if nothing had happened.

She looked at Ji Yanli who was sitting on the sofa in the living room. She thought to herself and walked in. She still needed to report to him that someone had died. If he...

Thinking of this, Yu Qingyin's eyes turned cold.

She might as well sever this bond completely while the feelings are still young.

Ji Yanli looked at Yu Qingyin walking in from the door. He was not surprised at all and patted the sofa beside him with a smile.

"Sit down. My abilities have improved a lot this time. I have to hurry up and work hard. Otherwise, I will be overtaken by you and won't be qualified..."

Ji Yanli paused, then spoke out the words in a circle.

"I am no longer qualified to be your captain."

Yu Qingyin glanced at him lazily, "Even if my abilities are stronger than yours, I still recognize you as the captain."

"Something happened just now and I need to tell you something." There was a coldness in her tone, and she quietly adjusted her posture and became alert.

Ji Yanli noticed her subtle changes, had some vague guesses in his mind, and raised his eyebrows in a puzzled manner.

"How come you met the experimental subject from Country M again?"

Yu Qingyin rested her elbows on the sofa with a casual look, but her eyes never left Ji Yanli, always ready.

"Liang Yuncheng is dead. He died in the mouth of a mutant mushroom. Tsk, that scene... is too bloody."

As Yu Qingyin spoke, she observed Ji Yanli's reaction calmly. To her disappointment, Ji Yanli's expression was calm, without the slightest emotion, as if he was listening to something very ordinary.

Ji Yanli leaned lazily on the sofa, his long legs crossed, looking at Yu Qingyin with a smile on his face.

"A traitor is dead, so it's dead. It saves me the trouble of supervising him. I can take him back to the base."

This answer was beyond Yu Qingyin's expectations. She looked at Ji Yanli with some surprise, her eyes full of seriousness, not wanting to miss any change in his expression.

"What if I say that I killed Liang Yuncheng?"

Ji Yanli adjusted his sitting position, faced with Yu Qingyin's temptation, smiled helplessly, looked directly into Yu Qingyin's eyes, and answered seriously.

"So what? He was the one who tried to kill you first, and you were just acting in self-defense."

Yu Qingyin opened her mouth, her eyes full of surprise. She didn't expect to get such an answer.

Ji Yanli sighed and explained softly.

"In the past month of the apocalypse, I have seen too many teams killing each other for supplies. Even your closest relatives will betray you."

He paused, his eyes shone with a layer of coldness, and then continued: "Sometimes, what is more terrifying than zombies is the human heart, because you don't know when your teammates will stab you in the back in order to survive."

Ji Yanli sat up straight and stared at Yu Qingyin closely.

"In order to survive, you must learn to be indifferent and discard the kindness in your heart. This is the only rule to survive in this cannibalistic apocalypse."

Yu Qingyin looked at Ji Yanli in a daze. This was completely different from what she had imagined. Then she thought of Ji Yanli's identity and smiled. She was thinking wrongly. How could Ji Yanli be a good person if he could gain a foothold in the doomsday?

Seeing her dazed look, Ji Yanli had an idea.

He leaned forward slightly, quietly closing the distance between them. His large palm fell on Yu Qingyin's head, rubbing it gently, and a hint of softness appeared between his brows.

Yu Qingyin glanced at the big hand above her head, and just as she was about to move, Ji Yanli had already withdrawn his hand and sat back.

Ji Yanli smiled gently, as if nothing had happened.

"You must be tired. Go to bed early. We have to travel early tomorrow morning."

Yu Qingyin looked at Ji Yanli with some suspicion. Why did she feel that Ji Yanli seemed to be trying to create close contact with her intentionally or unintentionally recently?

Looking at Ji Yanli's honest face and thinking that Ji Yanli already knew that she was a zombie, her doubts were dispelled a little. It might be her illusion.

Yu Qingyin stretched and stood up.

"I know, let's go."

Just as Yu Qingyin walked up the stairs, Ji Yanli's smiling voice sounded behind her.

"Go back to the base and don't forget the agreement we made." There was a hint of ambiguity in his words.

Yu Qingyin stood on the stairs and searched her mind, but couldn't remember.

Seeing her confused look, Ji Yanli sighed silently and reminded her, "This is compensation for the prank she played on Country M last time while driving."

After being reminded by Ji Yanli, Yu Qingyin suddenly realized.

"I got it. I'll agree to anything you ask as long as it's within my ability." She yawned and went upstairs.

Early the next morning, the sky seemed to have a hole in it, and endless rain poured out from it.

Yu Qingyin simply washed up and went downstairs when she heard Shangguan Qing's indignant voice.

"Liang Yuncheng boasted to me before that he would never be deceived by the people of Country M, but I didn't expect that he has already become a running dog of Country M!!"

Yang Jia immediately agreed, "Who said it wasn't true? You can't judge a person by his appearance. I felt sorry for him and always took care of him, but I was wrong in the end!!"

"That's right. He secretly passed information to Country M last night. He'd better die outside. Otherwise, I will beat him up every time I see him!!"

Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Yu Qingyin's eyes flickered slightly. Only she and Ji Yanli knew about this matter. She knew without thinking that it was Ji Yanli who spread the news.

She searched for Ji Yanli in the living room. Ji Yanli was sitting at the dining table. When he saw her looking at him, he smiled and picked up a tomato and shook it at her.

Lin Yucheng suddenly came into her sight, put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered in her ear.

"Miss Yu, I'm pretty good at making up stories, right? Last night I added a few small things to the version provided by the boss, and the response was pretty good, right?"

Lin Yucheng said this while throwing a coquettish glance at Yu Qingyin, with the three words "seeking praise" written all over his face.

Yu Qingyin smiled slightly, patted Lin Yucheng's dog paw away, patted his shoulder seriously, with a hint of joking in her tone.

"That's a good story. Today I will be merciful and spare your skull."

After saying that, Yu Qingyin strode towards the tomato in Ji Yanli's hand.

Lin Yucheng was not discouraged. He smiled and trotted after him, asking questions relentlessly.

"Are there no other rewards?"

Ji Yanli stood up, stuffed the tomato in his hand into Yu Qingyin's hand, and at the same time grabbed Lin Yucheng's collar and strode towards the car, leaving behind a string of protests from Lin Yucheng.
