My Girlfriend is a Zombie

As the man and woman turned to go upstairs, Ling Mo had already appeared in the corridor on the third floor.

He deliberately chose a room near the corner and glanced towards the direction of the stairwell after coming out.

“Sure enough, they haven’t come up yet… Even though I can’t use the psychic probe, the footsteps suddenly stopped midway up the stairs. Such an obvious flaw, who wouldn’t notice it…” Ling Mo thought to himself.

His words were more or less “spoken” as a thought, which immediately drew a response from Black Silk: “How would an ordinary person notice such details in such a tense moment? And wasn’t your attention entirely on the footprints? Besides, I think they only realized someone might be following them after they got upstairs. By the way, I wonder if they went back to check…”

“I don’t know about that, but I’ve already closed the door. Even if they go back, they won’t find anything suspicious. Although it was a bit risky just now, at least we can rule out the possibility that those two are mental ability superhumans. That’s something.” Ling Mo replied.

Slightly puzzled, Black Silk asked, “Why?”

“Think about it from their perspective. This is their territory. If they sensed someone, wouldn’t they use a psychic probe directly?” Ling Mo countered.

“So… could they just have particularly sharp senses? Or some sort of special superhuman ability?” Black Silk quickly figured it out.

“Probably… But they’re being so cautious without being mental ability superhumans, that can be used to our advantage.”

The structure of this hospital was quite old-fashioned; there was only one corridor, with the elevator on one side and the stairwell on the other.

Ling Mo had come up from the elevator and then walked along the corridor towards the stairwell.

This might seem dangerous, but the wards on either side provided enough retreat routes, and by moving quickly, he could investigate both sides while getting close enough to eavesdrop on the conversation between those two…

The corridor on the third floor looked much the same as downstairs, with large patches of blood and occasional broken limbs.

As he passed through the areas with more bloodstains, Ling Mo felt as if he were walking through the gaping maw of some creature…

The strong smell of disinfectant couldn’t completely mask the scent of blood. Instead, it mixed into a bizarre odor that made one feel nauseous at just a whiff.

However, Ling Mo’s attention wasn’t on that. When faint voices were heard again from the stairwell, he quickly slipped into a ward.

In a few seconds, the voices of the two people became clear again.

“…We have to check, don’t we? They said someone infiltrated, and yet they don’t want us to interfere. But this is our Squad’s territory,” the woman said, sounding a bit disgruntled.

“Alright, you call the shots, but don’t mess with them,” the man cautioned carefully.

“When have I ever messed with them? Just our bad luck to run into them…” the woman continued complaining.

“Look on the bright side, we might score some points for this. If we hadn’t come here, we wouldn’t have bumped into them either…” The man’s tone was rather resigned, and he seemed a bit intimidated by the woman.

As the two figures appeared at the stairwell and were about to turn and continue upstairs without stopping, a light noise suddenly echoed through the corridor.

“Clang…”

The noise was very soft, but it was exceptionally clear in the otherwise silent corridor.

The woman’s foot had just stepped onto the stairs when she immediately halted.

She turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, then glanced at the man beside her and whispered, “Go check it out.”

Both drew their weapons simultaneously and silently approached the room from which the sound had come.

The door was ajar and was still gently swaying…

After waiting a few seconds without any movement, the woman pressed herself to the door and signaled to the man.

“Who’s there!”

As the man kicked the door open, the woman rushed in with her gun raised.

However, all that greeted them were two empty beds in the ward…

The curtains covering the beds were still swaying, but it looked more like they had been moved by the wind from the door being kicked open…

“What’s going on here…”

The woman still held her gun up, but her brows furrowed in confusion.

She looked around and suddenly turned her gaze to the window inside the room.

Like the door, the window was also half open…

“Look, there’s less dust here…” the woman suddenly pointed to the windowsill.

She pushed the window open and glanced down, her expression instantly becoming a bit ugly.

“Let’s go, check downstairs!”

The man also took a look and asked, “What about upstairs?”

“Let’s catch this person first. They’re already injured and can’t have gone far,” the woman said decisively.

As she turned her head, the woman kept muttering, “I knew they were unreliable. This has to be their fault… Perfectly good methods ignored, stubbornly insisting on…”

“Alright, just stop talking…”

Just as they left, a figure upstairs let out a soft sigh of relief.

Separated by a ceiling, the two had no idea that the real intruder was right above them…

“Too cautious. If it were me, I’d have thought it was just the wind,” Ling Mo thought, shaking his head.

“Not only did you leave marks on the windowsill, but you also left some blood on the air conditioner below!” Black Silk couldn’t help but say.

Ling Mo casually tossed a blood-soaked cloth to the floor and said, “If they first check the neighboring ward to see if any pillowcases are missing, then notice that the bloodstains on the floor seem to have been wiped, then finally climb onto the air conditioner themselves to check the stickiness of the blood, they’ll naturally realize they’ve been fooled.”

“Is that so…” Black Silk said, slightly dazed.

“However, this is just a temporary diversion. They’ll be back in a few minutes. Besides, I’ve gleaned a very important piece of information from their conversation… Xu Shuhan is likely upstairs. Unless there’s actually a second intruder here, in which case, I should hightail it out of here.”

“Aren’t you going to join in?” Black Silk’s tone suddenly turned a tad mischievous.

“We’ll see… In any case, I have to find Xu Shuhan first,” Ling Mo said.

“Hehe, I knew it!” Black Silk immediately got excited.

Ling Mo thought to himself as he silently approached the ward door.

Just as he got close to the door, he suddenly noticed an iron chain.

He almost stepped on it…

Discovering something like this in a hospital ward nearly made Ling Mo think he had infiltrated a mental hospital, but upon closer inspection, he noticed the iron chain was new…

One end of the chain was wrapped around a hospital bed, while the other end was soaked in a pool of still-liquid blood.

Ling Mo squatted down to examine the blood pool and used his knife to pick up some black fragments.

“This is… fabric? And judging by the stitching, it looks like it came from a pair of suit pants…”

He faintly realized the hospital’s purpose at that moment and couldn’t help but let out a wry smile.

“What a coincidence… But this place must have been a trap for Senior Zombies. Xu Shuhan has just mutated, so how did she end up here… However, this increases the chances that she’s indeed here…”

Ling Mo muttered to himself as he turned back to the door.

“Those two said they’re upstairs, and this is already the fourth floor, which means the next level up is the fifth floor… Judging by their tone, the group that doesn’t want them interfering must be very confident… They’re probably in these two floors… Considering the other two will be led away for three to five minutes, that’s all the time I have.”

While thinking this, Ling Mo carefully turned the doorknob and quickly glanced outside.

To his surprise, the scene outside was completely different…

The floor was covered in writhing flesh, and the walls seemed to be oozing blood, continuously seeping out thick plasma.

Green mucus occasionally dripped from the ceiling, landing on the flesh with a “plop,” immediately sizzling and emitting a wisp of smoke.

The entire corridor was filled with a nauseating smell, even more pungent than the mixed odor from below…

“It’s like stepping into a stomach…” Ling Mo was taken aback.

Black Silk, in a matter-of-fact tone, said, “Maybe you’re just not opening the door the right way.”

“Tsk…” Ling Mo remarked, closing the door.

After waiting for a couple of seconds, he opened the door again.

Creak-

The corridor still presented the same eerie scene, but now there was something more.

The walls, which had been constantly oozing plasma, seemed to be closing in…

“Stomach cramps?” Ling Mo suggested.

“It’s more like stomach contractions…” Black Silk corrected, then proposed again, “How about opening it one more time?”

“No need, I’ve already confirmed what I needed to know.” Ling Mo replied calmly, stepping out of the room.

For most people, moving forward under such circumstances would be psychologically taxing.

Especially with the sensation underfoot, it felt as though one was truly inside a stomach about to be digested.

Ling Mo could even glimpse strands of hair among the writhing flesh and occasionally see a rolling skull…

“In a scene like this, Xu Shuhan must have been scared out of her wits…” Ling Mo couldn’t help but think.

He walked as if he were on a casual stroll, and soon reached the stairway.

“If there’s no movement on the fourth floor, then the real danger must be on the fifth floor… This staircase is like a door of life and death…”

The staircase leading up was a horrifying assembly of countless sharp teeth and flesh, while the one leading down, aside from the flesh, seemed relatively safe. If you stretched out your head enough, you could even see the more normal scene below…
