Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any zombies appearing at dusk. But the current situation was obviously different. When Fangzheng brought Blackie and Li Mi to the red brick warehouse, it was already crowded with … .zombies.
"What's going on? Is the supermarket next door selling potato chips at half price? Or is the store preparing for a discount? "
Looking at the street full of zombies, Fangzheng was dumbfounded. He didn't know what to say. Although the sun had not completely set yet, for a big city full of tall buildings, the streets were almost covered by the shadows of tall buildings. Therefore, it was not a problem for the zombies to move at this time.
But the problem was that these zombies were crowding forward, as if there was really a big discount in a shopping mall. The whole street was packed to the brim.
"I … .think I heard something."
At that moment, Li Mi frowned and said in a low voice.
"It's like … .music?"
"Music? Someone's playing music? That's not surprising. "
Fangzheng listened carefully. Sure enough, among the roars of the zombies, he also heard the faint sound of music. It sounded like a pop song. When Fangzheng concentrated, he immediately heard the music coming from the building in front of him.
"It sounds like Good Morning Girl or something … .did a zombie accidentally touch the switch of the music?"
Hina had already confirmed with the detector that there were no living beings in this area. If you think about it carefully, then maybe a zombie accidentally touched the switch of the music player, this is obviously more realistic. But …. Fangzheng still felt that something was wrong. There were too many zombies gathered here. Zombies indeed had sharper hearing than ordinary people, but it was not to the extent that they had clairvoyant hearing. Logically speaking, it was impossible for all the zombies in a street to be attracted here.
Moreover, according to Li Mi, these zombies seemed to be summoned by something ….
"What should we do now? Big brother? "
"Although it's not a bad idea to just kill them, it's too much of a waste of time. Not to mention, there's no EXP for killing these small monsters …."
Fangzheng scanned the surroundings and pointed to the roof not far away.
"Let's sneak over and see what's going on."
With Fangzheng and Xiao Hei's skills, climbing over walls and buildings was a piece of cake, but it wasn't so easy for Li Mi. Although as a zombie, her speed, jumping, and strength were already superhuman level, but this young lady who had a good upbringing since she was a child probably hadn't even climbed over a wall, let alone the roof tiles.
However, Li Mi was quite excited. She stood on the roof and jumped happily. It seemed that this young lady had been suppressing herself for a long time. It was rare for her to have a chance to let loose, and she didn't have to worry about other people's expressions. She immediately started playing.
Fangzheng and Xiao Hei did not mind. After all, Li Mi was already a zombie. Even if she accidentally fell down, she wouldn't die, and she wouldn't be bitten by zombies even if she fell into a group of zombies. She was basically not in any danger. Not to mention, this young lady also knew exquisite Western swordsmanship. With her great strength, dealing with a zombie was not a problem at all.
But then again, when Fangzheng learned from Li Mi that she knew swordsmanship, he wanted to ridicule why Japanese young ladies liked to practice swordsmanship. Was it because they wanted to use it to cut off their sweetheart's head in the future?
Now that he thought about it …. Wait a minute, Kuang San was also a young lady? Oh, right, Sonosaki Shiin and Sonosaki Meiin whom he met in the Cold Cicada world could also be considered young ladies ….
Damn it, are all Japanese young ladies so dangerous?!
But after thinking about it carefully, Fangzheng realized that Japanese young ladies were probably different from what he had imagined them to be. If Fangzheng remembered correctly, unlike China's use of words such as "well-bred", "well-educated", and "smart" to describe young ladies, Japanese young ladies were most commonly described as "well-versed in both the pen and the sword".
Of course, most of the time, this word was basically ignored by the audience. After all, the Japanese young ladies in the anime were all gentler, cuter, and more naive than the other. They looked like they had no fighting power at all. They were so docile and obedient that they could be lured home with a lollipop.
But in fact, after getting to know them, they realized that it was all just a facade. Every single one of them moved without any hesitation!
There was no need to mention a certain love rival who had slit her neck. Fangzheng still remembered that the female lead, Haruka, in a movie he had read before, "The Secrets of Nomusaka Haruka." Back then, she was described as being well-versed in both the pen and the sword. She looked like an introverted otaku, but when she was hit on by the school's judo club president, she threw him over ten meters away with a shoulder throw.
Tsk tsk tsk, if China's young ladies had this kind of fighting power, there would probably be no such thing as a hero saving a damsel in distress.
As his mind raced with all sorts of random thoughts, Fangzheng gently flipped to the balcony on the third floor. Then, he pulled open the tightly shut door and walked in. The closer he got to his destination, the clearer the music became. Fangzheng keenly sensed that there was a strange frequency hidden in the singing …. The singing was normal, but for some reason, it gave him a strange feeling.
"F- Mr. Fangzheng …."
At that moment, Li Mi also climbed over the window and walked in. She frowned with a puzzled expression.
"This song, I feel a little strange …."
"Strange? What's strange about it? "
Fangzheng concentrated and listened to the song again, then shook his head.
"The lyrics are very normal. They're all about love …. What's so strange about it?"
"No, that's not what I mean …."
Facing Fangzheng's question, Li Mi did not seem to know how to answer for a while. Although she had regained consciousness, perhaps because she hit her head before she died, part of her brain was damaged, so she sometimes did not know how to describe it.
"… I mean … this song … seems to be hiding some kind of message. That's what I feel …."
"Well … there's indeed a strange frequency mixed in, but …."
Hearing Li Mi's answer, Fangzheng also felt that there was indeed a strange frequency in the accompaniment of the song. Strictly speaking, it felt like someone was knocking on the door using Morse code. Those who understood it would naturally understand it, while those who did not would only think that it was a normal knock on the door. At most, they would feel that the rhythm was a little strange.
"… You can understand it?"
Fangzheng did not really believe that the young lady of this era, who was well-versed in both the pen and the sword, could decipher the code.
"I … I have a feeling … that I can understand it."
"In any case, let's go and take a look first, won't we?"
At this moment, Little Black, who was at the back, jumped in and quickly gave his opinion. Fangzheng didn't have much to say. He shrugged and walked down the corridor.
With the music as a guide, it did not take them long to reach the place where the music was coming from. But when they opened the door, they were surprised to find that what appeared in front of them was a group of … .zombies.
To be precise, it was a group of zombies who had dressed themselves up like will-o '-the-wisp teenagers.
These zombies with dyed hair and tattered clothes danced to the music in the hall. If it weren't for the broken limbs and bloodstains on their bodies, perhaps people would believe that this was a Halloween party.
But what surprised them even more was yet to come.
"….."
Just as Fangzheng, Little Black, and company walked into the hall, they saw the music that was playing suddenly stop. Immediately following that, a guy standing in front, dressed like a DJ, suddenly turned his head and glared fiercely at them.
"Roar …."
He opened his mouth and let out a low roar. At the same time, the will-o '-the-wisp zombies, who looked like they had taken ecstasy pills, turned their heads in unison, looked in the direction of Fangzheng and the others, and opened their bloody mouths.
"Roar ….!!"
At that moment, the DJ zombie waved his hands again and roared. He seemed to be communicating with Fangzheng, but unfortunately … Fangzheng did not understand the zombie language.
But soon, he did not need to understand it.
"Awooo —!!"
