Chapter 864: Bear Paw
Chapter 864: Chapter 864: Bear Paw
"Because Tangtang loves mom and dad. No matter how delicious they smell, I can’t bear to eat them!"
Fan Tangtang’s response echoed in Xiao Lan Zombie’s mind.
Xiao Lan Zombie stood silently for a long time, finally wearing a faint smile on her face.
The word ’love’ is difficult to understand.
But she thought she probably understood.
Otherwise, why would she fear losing control and possibly harming her family, prompting her to leave?
This is also a way of expressing love.
Just like Zhang Yiming, his love also meant staying away.
Xiao Lan Zombie slowly walked to Song Hongfei’s side, gently patted her dad’s shoulder, and said, "How have you been these days? I want to go home and eat my mom’s cooking."
"Okay, okay, we’re all fine. Your mom has been worried about you every day. Shall we go back now?"
Song Hongfei immediately replied.
Since Wenwen was unseen, Song’s mother had become increasingly irritable, taking it out on him and Song Ning.
They suffered in silence.
Wenwen’s visit back could at least make Song’s mother turn into a gentle middle-aged woman for ten days to half a month.
Xiao Lan Zombie turned to look at Bai Xiqin, who smiled and waved her to go back with Song Hongfei.
"Uncle, can I go to your house for dinner with Xiao Lan sister?"
Fan Tangtang asked crisply.
He was so familiar with Xiao Lan Zombie that it was his first time meeting her family.
Fan Tangtang is a polite, good child. Meeting Xiao Lan sister’s family, he surely should go over and greet them.
Even though he’s small, he can distinguish between who is food and who is a friend.
"Of course, you can!"
Song Hongfei instantly recognized Fan Tangtang’s identity, his eyes involuntarily revealing a touch of heartache.
Perhaps because his daughter had turned into a zombie, he started to feel pity for other zombie children.
Fan Tangtang was only five or six, looking so tender, with a white, pristine face devoid of resentment.
Recalling his identity as a zombie, it inevitably stirred some compassion.
It would be great if a cure to turn zombies back to humans could be developed.
Song Hongfei finally transformed from a stone-hearted strongman into a sensitive and empathetic person.
Unfortunately, not all forms of empathy in this world can be relieved.
Zombies really can’t become humans.
The Human Survivor Alliance never publicly announced stopping the research on a cure for zombies, but some superpower users have already guessed.
They probably gave up.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t propose establishing two safe zones, intending to allocate one specifically for zombies.
Song Hongfei also invited the Bai Family over for a meal, but considering the Song Family hadn’t seen Xiao Lan Zombie for a long time, the Bai Family naturally found an excuse not to go.
So, Song Hongfei openly led Xiao Lan Zombie and Fan Tangtang towards the villa in the safety base.
Occasionally, survivors were drawn to Xiao Lan Zombie’s beauty and Fan Tangtang’s cuteness, taking a few extra glances.
But no survivor would imagine them heading towards the Zombie King’s direction.
Even when the Zombie Emperor entered the safe base, no superpower users got harmed.
Moreover, these past few days, zombies have been noticeably quiet. No survivor searching for supplies has been attacked by zombies.
Even when seeing zombies from afar, it was the zombies avoiding superpower users.
Clearly, some form of cooperation has been reached between the High Rank zombies and human superpower users.
With the radio broadcasts, everyone’s fear of zombies has significantly reduced.
Even if they feel a bit uneasy, they can still be more at ease inside the safe base.
Nobody ever imagined that besides the Base Commander, superpower squad leader Song Hongfei would be walking around the base with two Zombie Kings.
The bus drove to a corner of the residential area.
As it stopped, Uncle Wang’s loud voice rang out.
"Old Bai, you’re finally back! We’ve missed you!"
Three slightly chubby figures rushed to the bus window, their faces almost pressed against the glass.
Besides the familiar Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu, Uncle Li, whom they met by the sea, was also there.
"Did you miss me or the dumplings?"
Bai Zhengxuan rolled his eyes, already heading to the kitchen to boil water.
The hot water was bubbling, and frozen dumplings were taken out from the freezer and dumped into the pot.
"Here, this is my card."
Uncle Li very seriously took out a red card from his pocket, handed it to Bai Xiqin, and then proudly glanced at Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu.
He wasn’t going to eat for free; he had a card!
When the sea creatures started going mad, Uncle Li didn’t hesitate for a moment and ran straight away.
He didn’t pack anything, just ran towards the safe base with his card in his pocket.
Afraid that the zombie sea creatures might kill the Bai Family, leaving him without a place to eat.
Unexpectedly, the Bai Family went to the seaside and returned lively and intact; it was truly noteworthy!
Bai Xiqin silently accepted the card, feeling the same vibe radiating from these three uncles.
Generous, strong.
Half an hour later.
Uncles Wang, Liu, and Li each held a big bowl, happily eating dumplings.
"Delicious! The more I eat this meat, the tastier it gets!"
Uncle Wang was eating dumplings one after another, visibly delighted.
"Haha! Brother Bai, you’re so generous!" Uncle Li gave Bai Zhengxuan a thumbs-up, continuing, "Yesterday, on my way to the safe base, I even saw a chubby giant panda. Considering Brother Bai’s excellent cooking skills, braised bear paw would surely be delicious. Unfortunately, I couldn’t beat it; otherwise, the four of us could have had a big feast!"
"Old Li, you really aren’t knowledgeable! Braised bear paw comes from a bear’s paw, not a panda’s!"
Old Wang shook his head at Uncle Li, feeling a bit regretful.
Didn’t catch it!
If they’d caught it, they probably could’ve eaten it.
"Panda? Is it a large, smart panda?"
Bai Xiqin instantly thought of the Mutated Panda.
She didn’t know if Wang Ge catching the Mutated Panda for experiments was true or not; even Qin Yuan didn’t investigate, only found out about one of Wang Ge’s secret bases.
Hearing Uncle Li’s words now, Bai Xiqin immediately confirmed that Wang Ge definitely hadn’t caught the Mutated Panda.
"Ah, it’s somewhat smart and quite strong."
Uncle Li rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.
He fought the Mutated Panda several rounds without victory and was even bitten by it, which dashed his hope of eating braised bear paw.
Tsk tsk tsk, those thick paws looked meaty, surely delicious.
"Where did you see it?"
Bai Yifan thought of the time he was tricked and asked.
He wanted to avoid where it appeared next time, as all the bamboo shoots from his space had been snatched by it; he wouldn’t be fooled again.
"Just near Shanghai, why don’t we go after it together?"
Uncle Li instantly got excited.
Bear paw must be delicious, right?
"Old Li, that creature’s cute, a protected animal. We can’t eat it!"
Uncle Wang patted Uncle Li’s shoulder, stopping his delusions.
He’s seen the Mutated Panda’s strength, and from estimation, their elderly team couldn’t win against it.
If you can’t beat it, it’s not food. Only what you can beat is considered food.
