[Anti-theft stamp, will be released in half an hour]
Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully. How did she think of the "customs warehouse"?
Even though most people knew that imported food had to go through customs, Lin Sanjiu couldn't remember where she heard the details. For example, the customs would conduct a random inspection on imported products for a month. During that time, a large amount of food would be stored in the warehouse … It was only when she looked into the eyes of the person in the car that she suddenly remembered.
The person in front of her used to work in an import and export trading company.
"What's wrong, Jiu?" The person in the car sounded amused. "Are you not happy to see an old friend?"
Lin Sanjiu looked straight at her. For a moment, she forgot what she wanted to say. After a long time, she called out with a hoarse voice, "Zhu Mei."
Behind her, Hu Changzai and the others sensed that something was wrong and were about to walk forward. When they heard Zhu Mei's voice, they looked at each other in confusion.
"Long time no see, Jiu." Zhu Mei narrowed her almond-shaped eyes. "I didn't expect that we would have some accessories on our faces."
Lin Sanjiu looked at her in a daze. Then, she reached out and touched the dark green pattern on her face. Zhu Mei laughed when she saw Lin Sanjiu's action, "But you look much better than me."
"Is she laughing?" An irrelevant thought suddenly flashed across Lin Sanjiu's mind. Zhu Mei's voice sounded like she was laughing. However, half of Zhu Mei's face was covered by her mouth, so it was hard to tell if she was smiling or not.
There was now a deep hole where the mouth and nose used to be. A mouthpart dripping with mucus poked out of the hole. The mouthpart swung and hit the door of the car. Lin Sanjiu was startled. She took a step back as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"Are you afraid of me?" Zhu Mei took a step forward.
Her leg, which was only covered by a pair of shorts, was fair and supple. Her skin was smooth and tender, just like when she was alive.
"When I was alive?"
"Zhu Mei … After I warmed up, I went to your house." Lin Sanjiu felt her throat was dry and itchy. "Someone else went into your house. They said that you were dead …"
"What do you mean?" Zhu Mei tilted her head. As she moved, the mouthpiece glinted like metal in the dark tunnel. "It doesn't matter. I might have been dead at that time. Since you went there, why didn't you collect my corpse? "
Lin Sanjiu looked at her, speechless. At that time, she thought that Luther and Marcie wanted to kill her, so she turned around and ran down the stairs. Although the misunderstanding was resolved after she was caught, she encountered the first duoluozhong … When she thought of this, her chest felt heavy. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by the other party's voice.
"Sure." Zhu Mei smiled, got out of the car, and stood on the ground. "If you had been a busybody and collected my corpse, I might not be alive now."
Did it change after death? Lin Sanjiu thought as she bit her lower lip.
"... If I knew that you would become a duoluozhong, I definitely wouldn't have left you alone." Her voice was gloomy.
Zhu Mei's eyebrows twitched. "So you've already thought of a name? Do you think duoluozhongs like us don't deserve to live? Do you think I'd rather die than become a duoluozhong? "
Her tone was sharp and aggressive. It was an attitude that Lin Sanjiu had never seen from her before. Lin Sanjiu was stumped by his question. Her mind was a mess, and she couldn't answer him. She could only stare blankly at him.
Someone caught up from behind her. It was Hu Changzai. His voice was muffled as if he was speaking in the background, "Xiao Jiu, do you know this duoluozhong? Come over here. Be careful of her … "
Zhu Mei glanced at him and laughed sarcastically, "Why is it your turn now? Where's Ren Nan?"
"He's my companion," Lin Sanjiu tried her best to keep a straight face as she suppressed the raging emotions in her heart.
At that moment, Hai Tianqing and B.Rabbit walked over and stared at Zhu Mei. They still kept a distance from each other to avoid touching each other. After more than a month, this had become a subconscious habit of theirs.
Zhu Mei didn't seem to care that she was surrounded by a few people. She crossed her arms and looked at Lin Sanjiu. There was a momentary silence.
Lin Sanjiu really didn't know what to say to Zhu Mei, who not only looked different, but also had a completely different personality. Was she happy that her best friend was still alive? Was she sad that she had become a duoluozhong? Was she going to treat her like the other duoluozhongs? She thought about Wang Sisi, who had consumed her father's blood, and Pei Jun, who had used his girlfriend to hunt … Lin Sanjiu had no idea what to say or what to do next.
After some time, she finally opened her mouth. However, the first thing that came out of her mouth was, "Zhu Mei, you … you killed a lot of people, didn't you?"
If she hadn't consumed at least a dozen people, she wouldn't have such a plump body.
"Yeah, I want to live! I have been living in this tunnel for a few months, "Zhu Mei nodded generously. Zhu Mei nodded generously. "Half of the people on this road, including a few evolved humans, have become my food. I once told you about the customs and thought that you might come, so I chose this place … I didn't expect that you would really come. "
"I have all my previous memories. I can speak and think … Xiao Jiu, do you know what this means? This means that Zhu Mei has never died. We are still good friends. "
At that moment, both of them were standing face to face. When Zhu Mei spoke, her mouthpiece vibrated and her saliva dripped from the end of her mouth to the ground.
"Is that really the case?"
The right side was where they came from, which was the other end of the tunnel. At this moment, Hai Tianqing was standing there. He took a step forward anxiously and said with a frown, "Xiaojiu, you don't have to say anything to her anymore. After becoming a duoluozhong, she is no longer the person she used to be. She should — "
Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly froze. He had completely forgotten what he was going to say next.
He wasn't the only one. Lin Sanjiu and Zhu Mei were also shocked. Their eyes followed the footsteps of the man who suddenly appeared in front of them. They slowly moved from the right side to the left side.
A young man, who was about 1.78 meters tall, was carrying a backpack and wearing a hat. He was humming a tune as he walked past Lin Sanjiu and Zhu Mei nonchalantly. It was as if he didn't see them. He continued walking forward briskly.
"He, he … Where did he come from?"
Lin Sanjiu asked, stuttering as she turned her head to the right.
Just like before, Hu Changzai, Hai Tianqing, and B.Rabbit were standing on the right side. The man clearly came from this direction, which meant that he had to walk past Hai Tianqing and the others first. However, they weren't any better than Lin Sanjiu. They stared blankly at the man's back. It was obvious that they had just seen the man.
"No, I don't know. He suddenly walked past us …" Hu Changzai was shocked, "I didn't even realize that there was someone nearby …"
The man seemed to have sensed the gaze behind him. He suddenly stopped walking and his humming stopped as well. He turned his head. Half of his face was covered by the shadow cast by the beret, so she couldn't see his face clearly. Only his rosy lips could be seen. The corners of his lips were curled upward. It was a standard and polite smile.
"You said that you have been living in this tunnel for a few months, right?"
The man's voice was flat. It didn't have any cadence or rise or fall. It sounded like an electronic voice that made people feel uncomfortable.
Obviously, he was asking Zhu Mei. Lin Sanjiu turned her head to look at her subconsciously.
Zhu Mei didn't expect the strange man to suddenly talk to her. She frowned and looked at him carefully. Then, her face suddenly turned snow-white, and her mouth trembled slightly, "Ah, could it be that you are —"
As if by magic, in the next second, an oval hole appeared in her chest. Through the hole, Lin Sanjiu could clearly see the car behind her.
Zhu Mei looked down at the hole in her chest in disbelief. She seemed to be mumbling something. Then, with a loud bang, her body fell to the ground. Her eyes were still wide open.
Only then did the piece of flesh that had been blasted out hit the wall of the tunnel, instantly dying the wall red.
The man in the beret slowly lowered his arm. There was a gun barrel in his hand that was still smoking.
The corner of his mouth was still curled up. His tone was as flat and emotionless as before, "After becoming a duoluozhong, only the dark side of a person's personality awakens. So, they can't be considered the same person. Since she is a duoluozhong, I helped you kill her. No need to thank me."
As he spoke, the man in the beret lifted his chin slightly. Only then did they see his face clearly.
His skin was smooth, his nose was high, and his eyes were deep. He seemed to be of mixed blood. There were even a few curly hairs peeking out from the brim of his hat. If it weren't for his dull eyes, which were fixed in the center of his eye sockets, he could be considered handsome.
"Zhu Mei!" Lin Sanjiu held the hollow body. She didn't dare to look at the face. She tried her best to control her trembling limbs, "You … You killed Zhu Mei?"
For a moment, her mind was muddled. That was the only thought left in her mind. Unknowingly, her eyes slowly turned bloodshot.
Suddenly, a large hand pressed down on Lin Sanjiu's shoulder. The hand was heavy and restrained. It carefully avoided touching her skin and held her back. Hai Tianqing's deep voice rang out, "Xiao Jiu, don't act rashly."
Lin Sanjiu looked down and realized that she was holding the mouthpiece in her hand.
"Don't be rash. Please don't be rash." Hai Tianqing, who was usually calm, sounded a little different than before. "Look behind you."
Lin Sanjiu turned her head, feeling a little confused.
Behind Hu Changzai and B.Rabbit, there were about a dozen beret men who looked exactly the same. All of them had raised their gun barrels and were aiming at them.
"Aren't you guys going to the customs warehouse? Let's go together."
