Chapter 64

Tomorrow, I plan to announce the group number, I wonder how many classmates will come. …

——

Miyabi screamed at the top of her lungs as Ei's teeth were just a hair's breadth away from her shoulder.

Plop!

A seal knife stabbed in, and the once terrifyingly strong Ei instantly turned into a cold, lifeless mass of flesh, pressing down on Miyabi.

The knife was pulled out, and a white, sticky substance oozed from the wound, dripping onto Miyabi's terrified face.

Lin Yifan wiped the liquid from the blade onto the corpse, cleaned the knife, and sheathed it back into the leather scabbard at his waist.

As Lin Yifan kicked the "dead flesh" away with his foot, Miyabi remained in her previous position, her pupils trembling, tears streaming down her eyes.

Today, she had experienced too much—the death of her childhood friend, her boyfriend's zombification...

Miyabi, lying on the ground, seemed to have lost her soul.

After doing his best to save Miyabi, Lin Yifan had no intention of staying longer and planned to leave this world as soon as possible.

As his boots stepped over debris, making a crisp cracking sound, the nearly broken Miyabi suddenly spoke, "Where are you going?"

"Home."

Lin Yifan didn't hesitate as he walked out, first approaching the weapon box to confirm that these were indeed the weapons he had hidden.

While checking the weapons, a zombie staggered up the stairs.

Lin Yifan grinned, holding the P90 in his left hand and picking up a baseball bat with his right. He pushed aside the debris and walked briskly toward the zombie.

He fired two shots, shattering the zombie's knees.

The zombie, losing sensation in its lower legs, groaned and fell to its knees. Two more muffled shots from the silencer, and the zombie's shoulders were also destroyed by Lin Yifan.

Casually twirling the baseball bat, he hummed a tune and muttered, "My aim has improved a lot recently."

The zombie, kneeling on the ground, lifted its head to growl at Lin Yifan.

A strong wind howled, and the baseball bat, carrying the air, smashed into the zombie, shattering its teeth and sending them flying.

Miyabi, who had just staggered out of the door, looked dazed and confused, feeling a mix of emotions toward the mysterious exchange student.

Miyabi's earlier words were said in anger, impulsively telling Lin Yifan to leave, but now that Ei was dead, she felt a complex mix of emotions, being alone and without support.

"Take... take me with you, I'm... scared alone."

Hearing Miyabi's plea, Lin Yifan remained unmoved, kicking the zombie aside and picking up handcuffs, he smiled and said, "Too late, goodbye."

The handcuffs were fastened around the zombie's arm, and the zombie, which Lin Yifan had tortured to the brink of death, turned into starlight and disappeared from this world.

Lin Yifan's smile remained unchanged, as if time had stopped, maintaining his original posture.

Miyabi, also frozen in place, remained dazed for a long time. Besides seeing the zombie disappear, Lin Yifan did not disappear from her sight.

Finally, Miyabi moved, full of questions, she walked up to Lin Yifan and waved her hand, "Classmate? Are you okay?"

Lin Yifan's eyes twitched violently as he suddenly stood up and took out his phone, scaring Miyabi into retreating several steps.

"Hehe, I'm fine! Hehe!"

Frustrated, he wondered why he hadn't left this world after capturing the zombie.

Lin Yifan looked at his phone and saw that the mission requirement was to capture a zombie, which was correct!

"Wait, what!?"

Suddenly, Lin Yifan noticed a detail: "Capture a Rampaging Zombie." Rampaging...

This meant the mission required not just any zombie, but a Rampaging Zombie!

Realizing the mission requirements, Lin Yifan squatted on the ground, holding his head, "What a trap, the system's text is a trap! Rampaging Zombie, where am I supposed to find one?"

He thought the mission was so simple, allowing him to enter so easily. Last time it was capturing a ghost, this time a zombie, which seemed even easier. It turned out to be a play on words, requiring a special zombie.

If the system had said "Special Zombie," most people would have understood, but "Rampaging Zombie" was misleading.

After all, zombies were already so rampaging; who knew which one was the Rampaging Zombie.

Biting his thumb, Lin Yifan bitterly recalled whether there was any special zombie in this plot.

It seemed this plot world didn't have much of a story; the protagonist just led a group of people in a series of battles.

"Could it be... I missed something?"

Squatting on the ground, Lin Yifan pondered deeply, trying to figure out where he went wrong.

Rampaging Zombie...

"Lin... Lin classmate, zombies are coming!" Miyabi pointed to several zombies emerging from the rooftop door.

Lin Yifan, lost in thought, subconsciously looked at Miyabi, and suddenly the gas station flashed in his mind.

"Right! The gas station, that thug!"

Lin Yifan wasn't sure if it was him, but it seemed there were no other creatures like the Tyrant or Licker in this plot.

"High School of the Dead" was a low-risk apocalypse, with zombies mainly relying on overwhelming numbers to push humans.

So, the only one with any distinctive features was the muscular zombie at the gas station, and fortunately, he knew the plot.

To encounter the muscular zombie, he needed to...

Lin Yifan looked at Miyabi, "Follow me."

"Huh?"

"Just follow me, I can at least guarantee you'll survive for a while."

Lin Yifan didn't plan to interact much with Miyabi, but the plot had not followed the original story from the beginning.

He wasn't sure if the thug who might turn into a Rampaging Zombie would appear, so he decided to take Miyabi, the "bait," and try his luck.

"You just said...?" Miyabi hesitated, sensing that Lin Yifan didn't really care about her.

"Not coming? Then go back to your Ei, I won't accompany you."

He wouldn't beg her, as he knew Miyabi was a practical person who lived in the moment. She might be emotional, but she knew how to make the best choices in critical times.

Back at the storage room door, Lin Yifan took four M4 rifle magazines from the ammunition box. The P90 had limited ammo, so he had to use the M4 carbine.

Miyabi frowned but saw Lin Yifan toss her an M4 rifle with a bayonet.

"If you don't know how to use a gun, treat it like a spear."

After throwing the weapon, Lin Yifan didn't say anything more, quickly dispatching the zombies blocking the door and walking briskly downstairs.

Miyabi, taking the M4 with the bayonet, looked at Lin Yifan's back with a complex expression, then glanced back at Ei's dead body in the storage room.

To survive!

Miyabi, pulling herself out of her sadness, bit her lip and followed Lin Yifan without hesitation.

Lin Yifan, moving cautiously along the wall, cleared the zombies gathered at the stairwell and carefully advanced, stepping over corpses to the window.

The self-defense forces at the gate had left, and the armored vehicles and tanks were gone, leaving only a dozen zombified self-defense force members.

Thanks to the self-defense forces, two-thirds of the zombies in the school were gathered at the gate, leaving the back door clear.

"Let's go out the back door. Remember, don't make any noise and follow me closely." Lin Yifan's tone was cold.

Miyabi, now unconcerned about whether Lin Yifan was an alien or from the future, followed him to survive.

She didn't dare to be alone and couldn't imagine surviving on her own.

The two descended the stairs, with Miyabi following closely behind.

The journey was smooth, with only a few zombies being shot in the head, giving Miyabi no chance to engage in close combat.

Running through the school grounds, Lin Yifan pushed the back door open, finding it unlocked, saving him the trouble of climbing over the wall.

Exiting the back door, Lin Yifan called "Carbon Steel" on his phone in front of Miyabi.

"Let's go!"

Running to the motorcycle that appeared in the corner, Miyabi didn't ask any more questions and got on behind Lin Yifan.

The motorcycle roared, and Carbon Steel sped through the chaotic streets. The lanes were filled with burning abandoned cars, and Lin Yifan drove on the sidewalks, occasionally avoiding zombies.

The wind blew across their faces, and Lin Yifan, looking up, gazed at the setting sun, twilight approaching.

After leaving the school area, Lin Yifan turned on the motorcycle's navigation. There was only one nearby gas station.

Confirming the location of the gas station, he revved the engine.

"Ah!"

The sudden increase in speed caught Miyabi off guard, and she instinctively hugged Lin Yifan's waist, but then quickly let go.

Miyabi just held on tightly and fell silent again.

The only sounds were the roar of the motorcycle and the howls of the zombies.
