We're doomed!
There's a traitor among the employees!
Sweat instantly broke out on Zhang Ye's forehead.
That damn 008 actually failed at the critical moment, wasn't this just deliberately trying to kill me?
The woman beside him was still shrinking her body and edging forward, but she noticed that Zhang Ye's body had suddenly stopped moving, so she curiously looked up at him:
Why aren't you moving?
Her large eyes filled with a small suspicion.
Suddenly, they could hear something rushing towards them at high speed.
"Run!"
"What are you freezing up for!"
The woman had not yet reacted when she was abruptly pulled forward.
A pair of sharp claws had already grazed past her ear.
"Aaaaah!"
Only then did she see the fallen zombie on the ground and screamed in terror.
"Run that way!"
"My house!"
Zhang Ye didn't have time to explain, he turned back and stomped on the neck of the zombie, breaking it, then dragged the woman toward the direction of his home's front door.
The 008 that was just about to get up was immediately trampled underfoot by the two of them.
Followed by a second pair, and a third pair.
The seven workers who had come over stepping on their colleague's body didn't have time to turn around before they were knocked to the ground by the oncoming swarm of zombies, quickly turning into mush under the stomping horde.
Zhang Ye had already rushed through the gate.
He'd thought the employees could have held the zombie horde back a little while, but who would have thought it wouldn't even last thirty seconds.
Several heads had already squeezed into the middle of the security door.
"My God!"
"That was close, nearly bit me!"
"Come and help, what are you spacing out for!"
Zhang Ye was dodging the zombies' sharp teeth while desperately using his body to push against the door.
The woman was right beside him, and hearing his cry for help, she quickly moved forward a few steps, but just looked on anxiously, not knowing what to do.
"Smash their heads!"
"Hurry! I can't hold on much longer!"
There were at least five zombies squeezing at the door, especially those two that had already extended their heads inside and were desperately twisting to worm in.
The gap at the doorway was widening and was on the verge of opening completely.
"Ease up a bit!"
"What?"
The woman suddenly spoke, her voice trembling, but Zhang Ye could hear a decisiveness in it.
"I'm telling you to open the door!"
She suddenly shouted, then fiercely pulled Zhang Ye's hands away from the door, and kicked out at the gap that was revealed!
The sound of a body falling hit the ground outside.
The pressure on the door abruptly eased.
"Thud! Thud!"
Two muffled sounds later, the heads that had poked into the door slot immediately stiffened, and a white, unidentifiable fluid sprayed out like a broken faucet.
In just a few seconds, Zhang Ye was completely stunned.
This woman's strength is so incredible!
Is this the special employee?
So terrifying.
Was this the same person from before?
But now was clearly not the time to ponder these things, he immediately took advantage of the sudden reduction in pressure outside the door to shut it tightly.
The latch clicked into place.
Both of them looked at the slightly shaking security door and finally relaxed.
We've finally come back alive from outside.
"Phew."
"Well done."
Zhang Ye gave the woman an approving look but noticed there was something else in her tired eyes.
Like a starving mother beast.
He immediately understood what she meant.
"Hungry?"
Looking at the snacks in Zhang Ye's hand, the woman didn't even have time to say thank you before she tore open the bag and started to pour them into her mouth.
"Crunch crunch."
"Gulp gulp."
"Is there, is there more?"
Zhang Ye nodded and pointed to the pile of food on the floor, "Eat whatever you like, there's plenty."
After a quick thank you, she began to devour the food once again.
Is this the special employee?
Zhang Ye secretly sized up the woman's body, trying to figure out what made her special.
But after looking for a while, it seemed she was just rather large.
Beyond that?
Nothing.
The mission issued by the system was still ongoing, so clearly just bringing this woman back was not enough.
Either she wasn't the special employee.
Or, there was still some condition missing to complete it.
The previous eight workers were all zombies, they just needed to be captured and added to the employee list.
Now, suddenly a likely special employee has appeared in the form of a living person, which kind of threw Zhang Ye for a loop. Should he also try putting them in a sack?
As he was thinking, he saw the woman lift her head and say with gratitude:
"Thank you."
"Not only did you save me."
"But you also shared your food with me, you really are a good person."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ye immediately chuckled, never expecting to be dealt the good guy card one day.
After all, he hadn't gone out there to be a Lei Feng.
But looking at the expression on the woman's face, he suddenly thought of the games he had played in the past.
It seemed like the addition of new characters always required building up favorability.
Zombies are dead, so naturally, they don't need that.
But it's different with living people!
Should he give it a try?
He made up his mind in his heart.
A smile that seemed to bask in the breeze of spring instantly appeared on Zhang Ye's face.
"No need to thank me, hehe."
"One for all, all for one, right?"
"Please, don't be so formal with me, just treat this place like your own home."
Her own home?
The woman was instantly taken aback.
Her beautiful big eyes suddenly reddened.
Could there still be such kind-hearted strangers nowadays?
Already filled with emotional touch, she could no longer hold it back, and tears overflown from the eye sockets of the woman.
"Why..."
"Why are you so nice to me..."
Zhang Ye thought naturally it was for the sake of those special words, what else could it be for?
For your fair legs?
Pssh.
That's what he thought.
But his body didn't hesitate in the slightest.
In an instant, he had the sobbing woman in his arms, comforting her softly.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't cry."
"Here, wipe your tears."
Zhang Ye took a few tissues from the box on the table and gently wiped her tears away.
What a warm-hearted big boy.
As he wiped away her tears, he chanted silently in his heart.
"System oh system."
"Hurry up and give me a prompt."
"After doing all this, if you don't give a prompt, that would be too much!"
There's an old saying in Shen Zhou that's absolutely right, sincerity is key.
Indeed, the system heard his call.
[Ding.]
[Would you like to add Liu Qingqing to the employee list?]
Zhang Ye was instantly thrilled in his heart, finally the prompt had come, and he quickly chose yes.
[Mission Completed.]
[New system function: Company Creation has been unlocked.]
Company Creation?
What does that mean?
Before Zhang Ye could figure it out, a brand-new employee list had already appeared before his eyes.
There was only one name on it.
"Liu Qingqing?"
"Huh?"
"You know me?"
The woman instantly looked at Zhang Ye with a surprised face.
It was only then that she noticed he seemed to be not much older than her—could he also be from Sanjiang University?
Zhang Ye, seeing the expression on her face, was also surprised in his heart.
He hadn't expected that he would actually add a living person to the list.
That was pretty amazing! Controlling zombies and now living people – wouldn't he call the shots in Sanjiang City from now on?
As he considered this, his gaze moved to the woman's body.
Only an experiment would tell.
Take off your shirt.
...
...
Time passed by minute by minute.
The woman was still sitting on the ground.
The bloodstained shirt on her body hadn't moved an inch.
The command from Zhang Ye had no effect at all, or was it that she just couldn't execute that particular command?
He thought for a moment, could it be too lewd?
Let's try a different one.
