Zombie Queen has the Biggest Thigh of All (20)
Yin Mei: !!!
She buried her head in her hands, able to imagine the expression that Ming Wei would give her when she would go to pick him up.
"Ugh, I don't want to go," She said, slumped over the head of the couch, looking at what the zombie emperor was reading. He was reading... some ancient china court drama novel?
Yin Mei couldn't help but feel confused. So that was where the zombie emperor's tastes lie? Just as she was going to call out and bug the zombie emperor to go with her, he asked, "Where don't you want to go?" In a calm voice.
She felt he was a little more responsive to her these days, before he would outright ignore her for some reason. But, she liked the zombie emperor a little better like this. "To B City. I have to go fetch a researcher that I recruited!" She said happily. Actually, Ming Wei had never agreed to come to H City yet, but whatever. She would force him if she had to!
The zombie emperor narrowed his eyes. B City, wasn't that close to where she had gotten beaten up by that thing? He then decided that he needed to go with her. He left her alone just for a little last time, and look how she ended up.
So, with Yin Mei happily surprised, the two of them journeyed together back to B City.
Qin Shaung who was left behind again could only sulk, though it wasn't as bad since he knew this time that they would be back soon.
Although the zombie emperor could travel faster than a car, because they might end up with more people and perhaps supplies to on the way back this time, Yin Mei grabbed an off-road jeep for the travel this time, putting some containers of gas in the back so that they could refill the gas tank when they ran out. She also brought along money, just for the sake of purchasing a temporary space in B City's public garages.
Yin Mei was currently thinking of whether she should leave the zombie emperor outside to fend for himself or smuggle him into the city. The problem was that he wouldn't pass the check up that they did, as those check ups included checking a person's vitals... of which he had none.
Could he sneak in up over the wall? It didn't seem too difficult, only doing so in broad daylight was probably a going to be hard, and Yin Mei didn't want to wait until night to enter the city...
Oh, wait, that was right! Would they even let her into the city this time? Last time she entered so easily because of Andrei and the information exchange, this time she wouldn't have to end up waiting for half a month outside the city gates right?
She rustled around the car, seeming to look for something as she kept one hand on the wheel, moving back and forth dangerously before she found her desired item. "So it was here-" she was saying, when she looked up to see someone right in front of-
She slammed on the breaks and spun her wheel around, the jeep coming to a stop with a loud screeching noise as the person seemed to finally notice the careening vehicle coming their way, jumping inside in shock as it moved past them before finally stopping.
"Oh my god, that was close!" Yin Mei said, looking at the person that she had just been about to run over.
"Hey, are you-" she paused, staring at him.
Fire red eyes. Fire red hair. Huh? Wasn't this the Fire Emperor???
Yin Mei blinked. He looked pretty similar to the Ri twins. Yin Mei blinked again. He matched the Fire Emperor's description. And then she blinked again. But... he wasn't supposed to be here for at least another five years? When was traveling continents that easy?
She didn't even notice the man angrily yelling at her, she felt so confused.
Huh, was the butterfly effect made by her and Lei Han really that strong? What in the world happened that caused the Fire Emperor to actually be able to come back to C Country so quickly?
"Hey, you b*tch, answer me! What the hell was that? You could've killed me, can't you watch the road a little?" Ri Lu said, his fiery tone finally reaching Yin Mei's ears.
She looked at him. "Hey, you Ri En and Ri Yi's older brother?" She asked, and he immediately looked astonished before taking on a guarded tone and stance.
"What's it to you?" He asked. In the apocalypse, no one had truly good intentions, so when a random stranger suddenly mentioned his siblings, of course he would be guarded about it.
"We're practically family. You looked so similar that I naturally just had to ask." Yin Mei replied with a shrug, but Ri Lu was still cautious.
Family? This random girl who almost ran him over with a car and his beloved, adorable, amazing, unparalleled little siblings?
He looked her up and down. She appeared clean, though her hair was cut in a rough manner, and the man next to her was so beautiful it was practically unreal.
"You?" He said, his face naturally expressing his doubt.
Yin Mei shrugged. "Well get in. We're going on an errand first, but we'll probably go back soon," she said, gesturing toward the back seats. Mm, they'll have to cram together with Ming Wei and Ming Yu later.
But that was fine, since the one who would feel uncomfortable wasn't her after all.
Although Ri Lu was cautious, he also wouldn't let go of this chance for information about his siblings. He had finally managed to get over here from across the sea and was on his way to their home city, B City, when Yin Mei had showed up.
He didn't even know if his siblings were alive or dead. Because of this, even if he was suspicious, he still had to get in for the sake of his siblings.
"We've been together with the Ri twins for almost three years now? Since a few months after the apocalypse started. We currently live in H City, but I and this guy here are going to pick up a friend of ours in B City. We'll be going back to H City right after that." Yin Mei explained, though she did fudge it a bit and leave out some details.
"Oh, that's right!" She suddenly exclaimed, as she recalled what she had been doing that was almost the cause of an accident. "Oh no, where'd it go?" She started to glance around recklessly again, her eyes leaving the road, causing Ri Lu to wonder why in the world he had decided to get on a car with this crazy person. No, no, he had to remember it was for the sake of finally meeting his precious siblings again...
"Oh, oh, found it, it dropped to the floor," Yin Mei said, picking up what looked like a red jewel. This was a communication device that Qin Shuang had created. Yin Mei had recalled that they had just thrown them around in random locations since she never really left H City anyways, but she recalled that because they had used this jeep to go out hunting once before, there should have been one in here. She didn't know how in the world they worked - maybe it was like the cup and string style communicator? Although there was neither a cup nor a string... Anyways, it worked, and that was all that mattered. "Ahh, ah, test, test, Qin Shuang, are you there?" Yin Mei asked, holding up the gem to her mouth as she not so skillfully steered the car with one hand.
Even after several years of driving about in the apocalypse, her skill at driving was still barely passable at best. It couldn't be helped. Apocalypse style driving had one characteristic, and that was reckless, reckless, and more reckless! After all, there was no need to avoid zombies or other cars anymore.
"Big sis?" An excited young voice came from the gem, it was Qin Shuang, who had just been feeling gloomy when he had been contacted by Yin Mei.
"Qin Shuang, can you make me an information card? I'll need it to get through the security in B City." Yin Mei said. That was right, they were the ones who created the information cards, so why couldn't she just use one as a pseudo city pass to enter the city? Yin Mei thought she was so smart.
"Alright," Qin Shuang said. It took a few minutes, but Qin Shuang finally extended his threads far enough to catch up with the jeep, that Yin Mei had conscientiously slowed down to a stop. He used the thread to create a red card, before retracting them. He could continue sensing the presence of Yin Mei and the zombie emperor through the communication gem and the red card, so to further exert himself with the threads was unnecessary.
Huh? "Hey, who's the new person in the back of the car?" Qin Shuang asked, his voice a little upset. His big sister wasn't going around picking up random strangers to bring home again, was she?
"He's Ri En and Ri Yi's older brother," Yin Mei replied, as she started up the car again after tucking the red card safely into her vest pocket.
"What, the big brother of those guys?" Qin Shuang grimaced. He felt that the older brother of those twins would be just as annoying. Ri En always acted as a know it all just because he was a little smarter and older than him, while Ri Yi insisted on gifting him the weirdest mutated plants that she created, one of them having grown to the size of a tree and eating his bed when he had looked away for barely even ten minutes. He immediately disliked the person.
But, Yin Mei wasn't bothered over whether or not Qin Shuang disliked Ri Lu or not (poor Qin Shuang!), as Ri Lu was too strong for them to just let go. She had invested three years into the Ri siblings just to obtain this card, after all. Though granted, the Ri siblings themselves were also worth investing into. Not mentioning Ri Yi's useful nature ability, they had discovered that Ri En's ability was ice, which Yin Mei found rather surprising. It completely didn't match his fiery hair and fiery eyed appearance at all, while in sharp contrast to his older brother's fire ability, that did completely suit the appearance of the Ri family.
But, ice was a rare and powerful ability. Honestly, Yin Mei was surprised that B City actually could have had two powerhouse ability users with the ice ability, if only Ri En hadn't died so early on. She thought that her idea to rescue the Ri twins was simply too smart and felt inwardly proud of herself again.
Though she quickly calmed down, remembering not to get too arrogant, or she might slip up again, like what had happened earlier with her battle with Lei Han. D*mmit! She still felt angry. Why was it that he just hadn't died? Yin Mei fumed on the inside, resolving that she would definitely kill him the next time. And she would take along the zombie emperor as her backup. Hmph, she just wanted to see if he could go up against both a zombie emperor and herself!
The two of them plus an extra Fire Emperor thus made their way to B City, where Yin Mei paid five rank 2 energy stones with a sad expression, reluctant to part with her evolution materials. She always thought it was a bad idea to use evolution materials as money, but whatever. Whatever!
She let them go, no matter how reluctantly. D*mmit, she would definitely have her vengeance against Lei Han for this!
Well, technically it was the zombie emperor's fault that they had to come back and pay for parking, but she ignored that little fact.
When the time came for them to go to the gate, Yin Mei looked at the zombie emperor, who seemed intent on following her.
She imagined what would happen.
Hmm, screams, gun shots, special forces soldiers, blood, chaos... a lot of bad things.
Let's stop imagining.
Yin Mei looked at the zombie emperor serious. "You can't follow us in, or you'll set off all sorts of alarms." She said, and the zombie emperor looked at her with an expression that was clearly rejecting her proposal. It wasn't a proposal though, but a demand! Too bad Yin Mei wasn't able to order around someone with the appearance of the demon king.
The Fire Emperor on the side was confused, wondering what in the world this pretty boy had done that he would set off alarms in B City? Could he be standing with a mass murderer or terrorist right now? He considered all sorts of possibilities. For his precious siblings to be associated with a criminal, this was no good! He quickly had to meet up with them again and lecture them about how they shouldn't associate with bad people.
In the end, Yin Mei could only tell the zombie emperor to sneak in by himself and meet up with her at the lab. Whatever happens next, it was his responsibility! She wouldn't care!
Half an hour later, standing at the entrance to the lab while lights flashed (no sound, so not to attract zombies), Yin Mei had her hands in her face as soldiers ran to and fro, preparing for battle.
Forget it, she should've known that the zombie emperor didn't know what "discreet" or "stealth" meant...
