Man and machine

At the shelter, the three vehicles entered the courtyard in an orderly fashion.

Everyone got out of the cars, exhausted, their faces still showing the remnants of panic.

This was their first time encountering a special infected, that kind of power… was simply not something humans could resist!

At the same time, people looked at Ping Chengcheng with strange eyes, then questioningly at Song Ning.

‘This girl… her marksmanship was so good? And, where did the pistols come from?’

Song Ning noticed everyone’s expressions and said expressionlessly, “I saw two zombies in police uniforms and decided to try my luck.”

“And then I got two guns.”

For a moment, no one spoke, and they walked into the shelter.

The warmth in the room slightly dispelled their fatigue.

Zhou Wen sat by the newly lit fire pit, his fingers tapping on his thigh.

Ping Chengcheng sat aside, her face still showing a timid expression.

She extended her delicate little hands to warm herself by the fire pit, the firelight illuminating her cute little face.

Song Ning sat next to her, the girl snuggling against the older girl, her eyes showing deep dependence.

Zhou Wen’s voice was low as he asked his question, “You know how to use a gun?”

But Ping Chengcheng didn’t answer him.

She shrank into Song Ning’s arms.

Zhou Wen felt a little awkward, but his face remained indifferent.

Song Ning gently stroked the girl’s hair, “Yes, she told me that she used to be an athlete on a shooting team, and won a provincial award in the youth group.”

When these words came out, everyone gasped in amazement.

Even Zhou Wen’s eyes softened a bit, and at the same time, he felt a bit of lingering fear.

Fortunately, he hadn’t stopped Song Ning from saving this girl before.

A girl with excellent shooting skills would greatly guarantee the safety of collecting supplies in the future.

For example, that giant zombie, its head was completely covered by fat, and its eyes were squeezed in the pile of flesh.

Did Song Ning not know to shoot at the eyes? Actually, she couldn’t hit them.

If it weren’t for Ping Chengcheng, who knows how many people would have died today. Although that zombie was huge and looked clumsy, its running speed was far beyond that of an ordinary person!

At this point, everyone’s gaze towards the girl changed, becoming fervent, affectionate, and doting… a complete reversal of their previous attitude.

Ping Yan sat in the corner, a little dumbfounded.

No, this girl, she had a problem! He couldn’t let these people be bewitched by her!

He had originally intended to speak without Ping Chengcheng around, but now, if he didn’t say anything, it would be too late!

So he coughed abruptly and said, “Uh, I have something to tell you.”

Suddenly, everyone’s gaze turned to him.

Ping Yan sneered contemptuously, “Don’t be deceived by her, let me tell you…”

“When we were in the car before, she smiled at me, a very strange smile! This girl definitely has a problem!”

The air was quiet for a few seconds. It was unknown which boy couldn’t hold it in first and laughed out loud.

“Pfft!”

“No, Ping Yan, it’s been over two months, how are you still so timid?”

Ping Yan’s face turned the color of pig’s liver.

He was clearly telling the truth, why did no one believe him!

The girl snuggled against Song Ning’s arms again, her tears falling down.

‘Damn! This little thing, she’s definitely acting! She must be!’

Song Ning gritted her teeth, remembering how he hadn’t protected the girl when they were moving supplies.

“What are you talking about!? You keep saying these things over and over again, what do you mean!?”

“She’s just an ordinary little girl! Why are you targeting her like this!?”

Ping Yan was suddenly flustered, his hands gesturing helplessly in the air, but he didn’t know how to explain.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

“I’m really not lying to you, I even saw her mouthing words to me before!”

Hmm?

The crowd didn’t interrupt him, but they were just looking at him like a clown.

Still steaming? At the same time, they didn’t understand why Ping Yan was targeting a girl like this.

“She said… she said Song Ning was hers, and she was going to kill me!”

The area around the fire pit was unusually quiet, and no one spoke for a long time.

Ping Yan stood up, at a loss.

He opened his mouth, his face flushed, and he couldn’t catch his breath for a long time.

“I’m telling the truth!”

“Puhahahaha!”

It was unknown who took the lead, but hearty laughter erupted in the shelter.

“Ping Yan, everyone knows you have a crush on Miss Song, but you don’t have to be jealous of a little girl, do you?”

Zhou Wen couldn’t help but smile, teasing him.

Ping Yan clenched his fists, his eyes a little cold, and he glared fiercely at Zhou Wen.

“Heh, what I said is true. If you don’t believe me, then forget it!”

Zhou Wen frowned in displeasure, his expression slightly cold, “Damn it, do you really think it’s still before the apocalypse? You f*cking brat, if it weren’t for Miss Song, I would have thrown you out long ago!”

“Pah!” Ping Yan spat.

“You f*cking don’t know what’s good for you…” Zhou Wen got up angrily and picked up the steel pipe at his feet.

“Don’t! Don’t fight! Wuwu… I’m sorry, it’s all my fault… it’s my eyes that are too scary…”

The girl’s crying echoed, calming Zhou Wen down.

“Heh, damn it, I’ll let you go this time. Damn, it’s the apocalypse and you’re still acting like a little brat! I really don’t know why Miss Song helped you so much before!”

Ping Yan gritted his teeth and looked at Song Ning again.

Song Ning glanced at him, then sneered.

“From now on, our friendship ends here.”

“I really didn’t expect you to be this kind of person.”

The girl was still crying helplessly, and the others in the shelter felt a little sorry for her, but the girl was afraid of them, and they didn’t dare to go up and comfort her, so they all glared at Ping Yan.

“Are you even a man? You’re disgusting!”

Ping Yan lowered his head, his expression unclear.

He couldn’t bear it anymore and quickly walked to the corner and sat down.

Damn it… no one believed him, not even Song Ning!

Weren’t they childhood sweethearts who had known each other since childhood?

‘Damn it, damn it!’

Now, he was completely isolated! It was all that girl’s fault! It was all that girl’s fault!

And Song Ning, why didn’t she believe him!

A crazed look flashed in his eyes.

“Hehe… hehe… hahahahahaha…” He suppressed his laughter, trying not to let others hear him.

Ping Chengcheng’s timid voice appeared again, “Sister… that brother named Ping Yan… his laugh is so scary… wuwuwu~”

Song Ning’s face was frosty.

“Ping Yan, what’s wrong with you again!? All you know is how to scare little girls!?”

“Cough cough!” Ping Yan was suddenly choked and almost died from choking on his saliva.

“I’m sorry.” He lowered his head and apologized, completely without his strange appearance from just now.

The girl whose head was buried in Song Ning’s arms smiled happily. This feeling was really happy~

Ping Yan was still sitting in the corner, his expression buried in the darkness.

He put his hand in his pocket, his rough fingers rubbing a small knife.

No matter how strange that girl was, she would die if she was stabbed with a knife, right?

After stabbing her to death, the gun would be hers~

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but get excited again.

With a gun, all these people who had isolated him would have to grovel at his feet!

And Song Ning! Hahahaha!

He almost laughed out loud again, but luckily he held it back.
