Chapter 41 - 41 : Is It a Supernatural Ability?

Ji Zan didn’t say anything, but he looked at Fu Shinan inquisitively.

He felt that she seemed to have something hidden in her words.

Fu Shinan felt a little guilty under his gaze and quickly turned her face to the other side. She always felt that Ji Zan had a knack for seeing through people, which made her uneasy. After all, she had a secret in her heart. “Anyway, the world is mysterious, and many things cannot be explained clearly. I just feel that if the apocalypse has occurred, humans shouldn’t go extinct. There must be some corresponding measures, right?”

Ji Zan didn’t comment on that. “So, Miss Fu believes what Cao Yong said?”

Fu Shinan shrugged. “I don’t know if I should believe it. I just thought it was necessary to let you know. What if? What if he’s telling the truth? Wouldn’t we miss an opportunity?”

Ji Zan pondered for a moment. “I will consider it.”

As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived on the third floor.

When Xiao Chang ‘an saw that his uncle had arrived, he immediately pushed aside the Bai Lianhua and ran over.

Ji Zan reached out to hug Xiao Chang ‘an and rubbed his little head. “Don’t be afraid. It’s okay. Uncle is here.”

Xiao Chang ‘an nodded his little head vigorously and said obediently, “Uncle, don’t worry. Chang ‘an is very brave. As long as Uncle is here, Chang’ an is not afraid.”

“Brother Ji, I’m so scared.” Bai Lianhua shouted and walked to Ji Zan’s side in her high heels. She hugged his arm as if she was declaring her sovereignty. She tightly held his arm as if trying to turn into a rope, entwining herself around Ji

Zan.

Fu Shinan couldn’t help but shudder at this overly fragile and affected behavior. Even ten Shi Chaner would be no match for her, let alone herself. It was so disgusting. She turned around and went back to her own room.

Just as she opened the door, she heard MO Cheng behind her calling out, “Sister Fu, where’s Cao Yong? I haven’t seen him for a while.”

Fu Shinan sighed. “He left.”

“What? He left? Where did he go? When did he leave?” MO Cheng walked into the house, eager to find out more.

In his heart, he had always felt that he was closer to Fu Shinan and Cao Yong. Or rather, the three of them were on the same team, while Ji Zan’s people were on another team. But now, one of them had left?

Fu Shinan had nothing to hide and said directly, “He left when the zombies arrived.”

MO Cheng clenched his fist tightly. “How could he do that? He actually left us behind and went away? And it was when the zombies were attacking?”

Fu Shinan sighed helplessly. “Everyone has their own aspirations, and we can’t blame Cao Yong. He has his freedom, and we have our choices.”

MO Cheng’s face was still filled with anger. “How can it be the same? If it weren’t for you saving him, he would have died long ago! And now that we are in danger, he just turns around and leaves? If I see him again, I won’t let him off.”

As he spoke with anger, MO Cheng clenched his fist and waved it.

Fu Shinan, however, keenly noticed a slight arc of electricity flickering at his fingertips, but upon closer inspection, it disappeared. She was astonished and looked at MO Cheng, asking, “Have you felt that something is different with your body?”

MO Cheng looked at Fu Shinan with confusion, then shook his head, swaying his head and legs. Finally, he shook his head blankly. “I’m fine, Sister Fu. What’s wrong?

Fu Shinan figured that she might be too tired and her eyes were playing tricks

on her. She smiled and said, “It’s nothing. You should also go and rest for a while. We’ve had a tiring day, and there might be more zombies tonight. We need to conserve our energy.”

MO Cheng worriedly said, “In the blink of an eye, there are only a few of us left in the base. If more zombies come, I don’t know if we can withstand it.” In fact, he wanted to say that with the strength of the zombies this time, it was probably difficult for them. No one expected the zombies to evolve like this, while they remained the same and their stamina was declining. How could they have a chance of winning?

Fu Shinan patted his shoulder. “Don’t be so pessimistic for now. Go eat something and rest well. Maybe we’ll have a new opportunity tonight.”

“I understand, Fu Jie. Then I’ll go back now.” After MO Cheng left, the room fell silent.

Fu Shinan leaned back on the sofa, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed slowly. She recalled the details just now and couldn’t help but feel like she had seen it wrong. Did electricity really arc from MO Cheng’s hand, even if it was just for a moment? Could it be that, like in post-apocalyptic movies, everyone had started to evolve within a short period of time? The zombies no longer feared sunlight, and humans had developed supernatural abilities as well? But how did these abilities manifest? Emotions? Danger? Betrayal? Or something else entirely?

Thinking about Cao Yong’s confident expression, Fu Shinan increasingly felt that the world was becoming fantastical.. After all, she had acquired a system, so what was impossible anymore? But if it was true, would everyone who remained here eventually die?
