Chapter 21: Upcoming crisis (3)
While the SUV was deliberately starting slowly, Chi Xin grabbed her blue scooter and followed the vehicle.
Looking at the car in front, she suddenly felt like a worried mother hen following her little chicks. She sighed and somewhat hoped Han Yiyi would finally show everyone her true colors or she would have wasted way too much energy.
To avoid being discovered, Chi Xin stayed far behind the SUV. She couldn’t see what was happening in the car but she looked at it drove forward and at the scattered zombies around.
The zombies near the base had been almost entirely cleaned up and the journey went smoothly. It wasn’t until they reached the urban area that the number of undead increased.
Jing Xiubai knew that Chi Xin was behind and was worried she would not be able to deal with all the corpses; he picked the cleanest street and stopped at the corner.
Seeing this, Chi Xin quickly found a spot to hide her scooter and watched the team get out of the car. She was still far away and she couldn’t hear what they were talking about but she could feel the tense atmosphere as they made their way to the city.
The mission’s objective this time was to investigate traces of high-level zombies and they all knew it was rather dangerous.
They all surrounded Jiang Congyun, the healer of the team, and maintained a relatively stable formation as they explored. Han Yiyi seemed to complain about it but was ignored.
Looking up again, Chi Xin blinked as she saw the situation, almost forgetting why she was here.
She watched the girl in the white dress spinning and hopping around the men. She would run to the side of the road from time to time, feeding her powers to dying flowers before picking them and holding them enthusiastically to Jing Xiubai.
She was acting like a little girl going for an outing with her family, using her abilities for all kinds of strange and useless things. She wasn’t showing any nervosity and didn’t care about the stiff faces of the people around her.
Chi Xing could almost imagine what Yu Xiang would say.
“Thank you. Thank you so much for wasting your powers, we wouldn’t know what to do against a high-level zombie without your flowers.”
Chi Xin dived behind a wall when she heard him, trying to not laugh out loud.
Cheng Xin poked Rong Feng and asked: “Is this the sister who is supposedly more effective than Sister Chi?”
Rong Feng didn’t reply and aimed at a zombie rushing their way, killing it in one headshot.
Han Yiyi seemed to not hear them and while everybody else was busy cleaning up the zombies, she suddenly exclaimed: “Ah!”
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Congyun had been very tense since the beginning and was startled by her cry.
“Look!” Han Yiyi pointed at the sky.

The men pointed their guns to the sky vigilantly. A few seconds passed but they only saw a bird fly.
“Look at how happy birds are when there are no humans.” Han Yiyi crossed her hands on her chest and has a dreamy smile on her face, “The plants told me they are very happy.”
Everyone: …
Chi Xin: …
Chi Xin already knew this girl was rather special but she had not expected it would be to that point. She felt some pain for the team.
“Birds. Chi Xin can shoot five or six dead every time she enters the range.” Yu Xiang said expressionlessly.
Han Yiyi’s expression turned into horror when the feather ball fell on her face. She jumped up and screamed, throwing the dead sparrow away with trembling hands: “Get off! Get off!”
The whole team looked at her coldly and no one went to help her.
When the girl realized it was just a bird, her body suddenly stiffened. She watched the other members indifferently killing zombies in every direction as if she wasn’t even there.
Chi Xin couldn’t help herself anymore and let out a muffled laugh.
The team carefully searched every corner and the closer they advanced to the original city center, the more frequent the zombies appeared.
Chi Xin stared at her empty magazine. The gun she had taken from this mission did not feel as familiar as her Desert Eagle but the muffled sound allowed her to be discreet.
She squatted and poked out her head carefully. The team was still killing the zombies but Han Yiyi was staring at Jing Xiubai with a blank expression.
Ah?
Chi Xin couldn’t see clearly but felt that something was wrong and she clenched her gun.
Han Yiyi’s empty expression only lasted for a short while. When one of the men turned his head, the girl had returned to normal and as she pointed in a direction. Jing Xiubai glanced at her calmly but indulged her and slowly followed.
More and more zombies were coming and even Chi Xin started getting attacked. When she looked back to the team, she realized they had reached the front of a school.
The tall and white building was smeared with bloodstains, giving the original ivory tower a horrific makeover. The air around the school was cold and the system automatically sounded an alarm in her head.
Chi Xin stared at the building and felt that something terrible awaited them.
