Chapter 563: Chapter 603: Bai Yifan, Reliable!
"Roar――"
In the car, the Xiao Lan Zombie was still emitting low growls, with a hint of urgency in its voice.
It wasn’t the eagerness to devour flesh and blood, but the urgency of meeting someone familiar and being unable to recognize them.
Its decayed fingers constantly clawed at the back seat of the car, wanting to break through the glass to find Bai Yifan and his sister.
"Wenwen, be good, we’ll be there soon, just hold on a little longer."
Song’s mother kept soothing Song Wenwen in a low voice.
Song Wenwen’s mind had an order left by Zhang Yiming to listen to the Song Family’s words.
If not for this order, it would have already broken through the glass and rushed towards the Bai siblings’ home.
Not to devour their flesh and blood, but perhaps as a joy of reunion.
The Xiao Lan Zombie didn’t understand the concept of long separation and reunion, nor did it understand the greetings between friends, it only knew it wanted to follow the Bai siblings.
But that order seemed engraved in its mind, wanting to break through that shackle but unable to, only letting out suppressed growls, constantly clawing at the back seat.
"She has a bit of self-awareness."
The Base Commander turned back to look at the Xiao Lan Zombie, who seemed to want to go out, and carefully observed its eyes. He found a trace of human emotion in its decayed eyes.
Perhaps because the decayed face was too dull and couldn’t express many emotions, few noticed the urgency in the Xiao Lan Zombie’s eyes.
The urgency of wanting to see someone but being unable to.
"In the future, things will definitely get better!"
Song Hongfei said with a smile.
No matter what happens, as long as the family is together, any difficulty can be overcome.
Song’s mother also quickly looked at Song Wenwen’s eyes, but by this time the Bai siblings had already walked far away, and the urgency in the Xiao Lan Zombie’s eyes had disappeared.
The decayed fingers withdrew from the back seat, returning to its previous dazed appearance.
"It would be even better if Wenwen could call me ’mom’ again."
Song’s mother wasn’t disappointed; instead, she took out a crystal core and placed it in Song Wenwen’s decayed fingers.
She believed that if there were speaking High Rank Zombies in this world, it proved that Wenwen could do it too.
As parents, how could they abandon their child just because she couldn’t speak?
So, the Song couple were incredibly patient, as if they were raising Song Wenwen all over again from childhood.
The Base Commander slowly turned his head away from the Xiao Lan Zombie, unconsciously placing his finger over his heart.
If, if the dead could become zombies.
If the corpses of those who died in the past hadn’t decayed.
Doesn’t it imply such a possibility that a non-decayed corpse could "come back to life" after being infected by the zombie virus?
Even if, when "coming back to life," luck isn’t good, and it becomes a walking corpse, if he’s persistent and caring enough, there might be a day when she remembers him, calls his name.
And remembers they had a son together.
It’s been over twenty years, and he couldn’t come to terms with either losing his son or the death of his wife.
Over more than twenty years, every day and every night, he suffered in agony. Now that his son has been found, the joy of finding him can’t be shared with his wife.
Two of the most painful events have been resolved, one of them.
Such things he never dared to hope for in the past, and now...
He personally witnessed the resurrection of the dead.
Saw Zombie Kings who looked exactly like humans, saw Zhang Yiming, and other Zombie Kings appearing like ordinary humans before him.
How could he not be moved?
The Base Commander’s fingers slowly tightened, unaware that his nails dug into his flesh, filled with endless fantasies in his mind.
He really wants to see her again.
Before the sun sets, before he closes his eyes, and his heart stops beating.
Just one look, he would be satisfied.
But now, the Base Commander thinks of just looking, but after seeing, he would wish for it to last forever.
People never truly understand what satisfaction means.
Song Hongfei noticed the Base Commander’s tightened fingers and his gesture of caressing the pocket watch from the corner of his eye.
From the moment the Base Commander agreed to help, he wondered why the Base Commander would assist him. The Base Commander’s creation of the safe base was to ensure safety, to guard against zombies.
Why would he help?
He had a vague suspicion.
He initially thought the Base Commander was a perpetual bachelor, without a romantic soulmate, always on his own.
But when the Base Commander found his long-lost son, Song Hongfei realized it wasn’t that the Base Commander had no romantic soulmate, but because the person he cared about wasn’t by his side.
Not being by his side meant death.
Before the world underwent drastic changes, death meant eternal separation, never being able to say a word or meet again.
When the apocalypse came, the number of dead outnumbered the living, and the deceased would stand before their loved ones once more.
Song Hongfei understood what the Base Commander was thinking about.
He even thought that if his parents hadn’t been cremated when they died, if there was a physical body, maybe, they could really meet again one day.
Song Hongfei secretly shook his head, continuing to drive towards the most secluded villa.
On the other side.
When Song Ning returned home, intending to drive Song Kerou out, as soon as he entered, he saw Song Kerou surrounded by people offering warmth and concern.
"Kerou, come, have some fish soup to nourish your body. You lost so much blood, you need to drink more!"
A superpower team member wearing a mountain coat cheerfully handed a basin of fish soup to Song Kerou.
Song Kerou sniffed the fish soup, which exuded a fishy odor, and frowned slightly.
Now, various supplies were scarce, especially kitchen seasonings, which were almost down to using only salt to adjust the flavor.
Fish soup with only salt smelled very fishy, and having grown used to eating the Song Family’s meals, Song Kerou felt nauseous smelling it.
No matter how many mistakes she made, the Song Family never denied her meals!
"I won’t eat. My mom gave me a piece of bread yesterday afternoon, I’m not hungry now."
Song Kerou, smiling, pushed away the fishy-tasting fish soup.
Song Kerou’s voice was soft, with a hint of grievance, sounding somewhat bravely resilient.
It evoked another wave of sympathy from the men.
Everyone knew the Song Family lived in a villa, had powerful superpowers, and weren’t lacking in food and drink, so how could they only give such an adorable girl a piece of bread?
A piece of bread was already considered a decent lunch for ordinary people, but for the Song Family, it was too stingy.
Moreover, what Song Kerou implied was that she hadn’t eaten anything from yesterday afternoon until now.
A group of people whispered among themselves, with no one noticing that Song Ning was already standing at the outer edge of the crowd.
Hearing Song Kerou’s words, Song Ning trembled with anger.
The family had always favored the girls, so any good food at home was first picked and eaten by Song Wenwen and Song Kerou.
Song Kerou never refused, never yielded to anyone.
After Song Wenwen was gone, Song Kerou had no competition, and the Song Family never cared about such things, so although Song Kerou wasn’t well-loved, she never lacked food or drink.
For her to imply otherwise, it was utterly heartless!
Song Kerou grew more complacent under the sympathetic gazes around her.
At this moment, a cold voice rang out.
"Is this how you typically slander us?"
