They had previously said they would use Ye Hui to lure the monster she was talking about.
The two men's eyes met, and the next second, Xie Chiyuan turned around and spoke to Ye Hui, who was not far away.
"We're going out to find zombies and monsters. Where are you planning to go?"
"Can we come with you?"
Ye Hui asked this question, but she had already made up her mind that no matter how the other party answered, they would follow along.
Right now, the safest place is by Xie Chiyuan's side.
Even if they really encountered monsters, Xie Chiyuan would not sit idly by and do nothing.
Ye Hui's plan was brilliant, and Xie Chiyuan could tell what she was thinking at a glance.
"Let's go."
He said calmly, "We don't support useless people. If you want to follow us, make yourself more valuable."
Ye Hui had already witnessed his cold attitude, so she knew what to say.
"I'll try harder to think of what else is here... As long as you can protect me, I'll become useful to you."
"That would be best."
Xie Chiyuan said, walking ahead with Yu An.
Neither Qi Zai nor Tan Zhan followed. Without being told, the two knew they should change their approach.
After walking a while in the opposite direction from Yu An, Qi Zai was still thinking about what had just happened.
"Tan Zhan, are neither Ba Zai nor Jiu Zai as smart as me?"
At least he won't poison himself!
Upon hearing this, Tan Zhan paused, then casually reminded him, "Didn't you eat your own leaves before?"
He still remembered that it was when he had just met Qi Zai.
Seven has not yet been spoiled into a rich kid; he is still a genuine poor kid.
The poor kid didn't know what difficulties he had encountered, and he couldn't even afford to eat.
When Tan Zhan saw him, he was hesitantly plucking his own leaves and putting them into his mouth.
Tan Zhan stood not far away, and could still hear him talking to himself.
"My older brother seems to have said... I'm not poisonous, you can eat me."
"It tastes awful."
"Ugh, I want to eat meat."
Tan Zhan immediately thought this person was very special, exceptionally good-looking, and also incredibly cute. Not long after his gaze repeatedly fell upon this person, one of his squad members followed his gaze.
At that time, Tan Zhan had experience forming a team after the outbreak of the virus.
The team brought Qi Zai back, presented him to him, and patted their chests, saying, "Brother Tan, how's my job? This guy's in your room tonight, you can have whatever you want with him!"
Seven, who had been tricked into coming: "?"
Qi Zai initially intended to freeload, but he never imagined that once he caught Tan Zhan's eye, he would be unable to escape.
"You're talking nonsense!"
Seven, believing that no one had witnessed his past, glanced sideways at Tan Zhan and retorted with a strong voice, "Am I as stupid as Eight in your eyes?"
"I would never taste myself to see if I'm poisoned."
He eats them directly! Anyway, his older brother said they're not poisonous.
Tan Zhan held his hand, letting him chatter on and on.
On the other side.
After walking for a while, Yu An stopped.
"Let's split up. Who will come with me?"
Yu An dispersed the three people behind him and chose the two men to follow him.
Ye Hui, without even thinking, chose Xie Chiyuan herself.
"See you in a bit, An'an."
"Okay, see you in a bit."
Although it was only a temporary separation, Xie Chiyuan still lowered his head and kissed his lips.
The two of them made no attempt to hide their intimacy from outsiders, which made Ye Hui's lips twitch.
She considered herself to be pretty, but the two of them seemed to only have eyes for each other and barely looked at her.
Yu An led the two men away, talking to them as they walked.
How long have these prison cells been built?
"We don't know either, we haven't been here long."
"oh."
Yu An then asked, "Don't you find it boring to watch the prisoners here?"
The two men hesitated for a moment.
Those imprisoned or the mutants are people who will never be released. Therefore, they can do whatever they want with them.
Life wasn't exactly boring.
They couldn't reveal their true experiences, so the two of them blatantly lied, saying, "It was quite boring, but there was nothing we could do; it was all part of the job."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Yu An chatted with them casually while he continued searching for zombies.
That's really strange.
Zombie kings shouldn't be this hard to find. The most basic thing about those zombie kings, like the old man, is that they can gather a lot of zombie minions.
The horde of zombie minions gathered together was quite conspicuous.
Even when Sun Mo traveled outside, he always had many followers.
But the zombie king here, I wonder if he's gone, or if he's run away...
Or perhaps, he simply doesn't have any underlings.
Otherwise, why would they be so desperate to find it?
Yu An frowned, still thinking about this matter.
After leading Ye Hui for a while, Xie Chiyuan simply took a detour and left her behind.
When Ye Hui discovered that Xie Chiyuan had disappeared, her expression immediately turned panicked.
"Xie Chiyuan!"
Ye Hui followed Xie Chiyuan all the way, and now she had no idea where they were.
"Xie Chiyuan! Where are you?! Are you doing this on purpose?!"
Ye Hui felt a strong sense of unease about being alone.
She frantically called out Xie Chiyuan's name, trying to find him.
Not far from her.
Xie Chiyuan looked at her indifferently. After reading it, he looked down at his phone and said, "I've already shaken her off. She can't find me, and I won't let her come back."
"If we just let her wander around here and see what monsters come looking for her, we'll be able to find the answer."
On the other end of the phone was Yu An's WeChat.
Yu An converted the voice message into text and, after reading it, replied with a nodding fox emoji.
The emojis he uses now are all photos of his children.
These emoticons made from photos, as well as some GIFs, were saved from the internet.
The fans of these kids are incredibly powerful; they've created countless sets of memes based on photos and videos found online.
The emojis for the third and fourth kids are used most frequently.
Among them, the number of emojis for the third child surpasses that of all the other children.
The two men were communicating on their phones. The man behind them looked at him, then at the phone in his hand.
"May we ask, who are you?"
These two haven't been out and about for a long time, and their phones haven't been replaced since they were damaged, so they're now completely cut off from communication.
The fact that the information was kept out of reach meant that he didn't know the popular online boy band, or their leader, Yu An.
"I am Xie Chiyuan's boyfriend."
Yu An answered the seemingly pointless question: "My name is Yu An."
"Yu An, we want to ask you, are you even human?"
Yu An: "..."
Yu An looked at the two people with a complicated expression.
After asking the questions, the other party also realized that something was wrong.
"I don't mean to insult you, I just want to ask if you're even human."
No, I mean—
Seeing that their conversation was getting increasingly chaotic, Yu An interrupted them: "They are people."
I was once a human being.
Upon hearing that it was a human, both men breathed a sigh of relief.
Their attitude towards Yu An was no longer as cautious and humble as before. Now there were only the three of them here; everyone was human, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Yu An could also see that they were relaxed, so he smiled and didn't say anything more.
