The girl stared at Shen Chen in disbelief, then cried out in joy. She jumped out of the car trunk like a rabbit and wormed herself into the front passenger seat.

She glanced at the connected ignition wires and couldn’t help being astonished. “Are you a secret agent or something? You know a technique like this that only appears on TV?”

Shen Chen couldn’t help shaking his head. “Sit tight. Put on your seat belt.”

The girl pouted her lips. “I know. This is my car.”

The car started advancing on the road. The girl looked at Shen Chen, rejoicing in the fact that she was able to escape her ill fate. She had been tailing her stepmother to catch her in the act of cheating, but she never would have expected that her stepmother would be pounced to the ground by the man who had just intimately whispered to her in front of everyone. By the time Ye Xiaoyu reacted, the entire hotel had become a living hell. The corpses that fell from the sky at the door further provoked her desire to survive. The only idea she thought of was to lock herself in the car. Then she crawled into the trunk. She knew it was the only way she could survive. She initially thought she would be trapped in the trunk until she died. She hadn’t expected that someone would drive the car. The vibration of the car had nearly made her cry. It meant that she could continue to live!

The girl gritted her teeth, combing out her hair to appear less disorderly, then said, “My name is Ye Xiaoyu. What about you?”

“Shen Chen.”

‘Shen Chen…’ Ye Xiaoyu thought to herself. She saw his firm face clearly in the car mirror outside. He looked to be at most nineteen years old, around the same age as herself. He was probably a student nearby as well, but she had never heard of such a fierce person on the J University campus.

Ye Xiaoyu thought to herself that although she had been hiding in the trunk, she had clearly felt how skilled the driver was. Now that she saw all the bloodstains on his body and the steel knife in his hand, she was even more certain that this guy named Shen Chen must have killed a lot of zombies. He was a true master!

Suddenly, a few cars appeared in the middle of the road. There was clearly a multiple-vehicle collision. The crooked cars on the street made Shen Chen frown. He was about to drive around them when, suddenly, a dozen zombies appeared next to the cars, showing their ghastly faces. The moment they saw Shen Chen’s car, they immediately ran over screaming, their arms swinging. They scratched at the windows with their nails, making a jarring noise.

“Ahh!” Ye Xiaoyu jumped in her seat. The zombies that had appeared out of the darkness violently pounded on the windows. They pressed their faces against the glass, eyes locked on the “food” in the car. Ye Xiaoyu’s entire body shrunk toward Shen Chen, but she covered her mouth tightly so she wouldn’t make a sound.

This made Shen Chen have a better impression of her. ‘It seems like this kid’s not stupid. The dissemination of sound in the night would have attracted more zombies.’ Shen Chen smiled, then said in a low voice, “Sit tight! Don’t be afraid!”

He spoke in a cool tone, but it unexpectedly made Ye Xiaoyu feel at ease. She quickly held tightly onto the handle and said in a somewhat tearful voice, “What are we going to do?”

“What are we going to do? It’ll depend on how good your car is!”

Shen Chen narrowed his eyes, accelerating the car. The four wheels turned wildly simultaneously. Clouds of smoke rose from the ground. The entire car shot out like an arrow from a bow, sending several zombies flying in its path. Shen Chen kept a straight face in the sturdy German car, charging through the crowd of zombies.

Suddenly, a small car parked horizontally in the middle of the road appeared in their sight. Ye Xiaoyu immediately panicked. “Oh, no! There’s a…”

Thump.

After savagely shoving the car out of their way, they crashed into two more zombies that jumped on the car. The zombies went flying with a boom.

Shen Chen turned around. “What did you just say?”

“It’s fine… my car… Oh, no! Zombies!” Ye Xiaoyu turned pale and shouted while pointing at the window.

A zombie had rolled over the engine hood and was now lying on the windshield. It grabbed the windshield wipers in one hand and pounded on the glass with another. Its mouth was wide open, and its hideous pale white face blocked the view ahead.

“Roar…” The living humans before it made the zombie let out a growl of excitement. Even though its lower body was paralyzed by the car, it still pounded on the glass. Shen Chen furrowed his brows and pulled out Black Blade.

“What are you going to do?” Ye Xiaoyu asked anxiously.

“Finish off this zombie. Otherwise, with its strength, the windshield will be shattered soon.”

Ye Xiaoyu’s face was white as a sheet of paper. She said frantically, “You’re crazy! How is that possible?! How about we stop the car and…” She couldn’t even finish her sentence. In the rearview mirror, she could see a dozen zombies were still chasing them persistently. Once they stopped the car, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Hold onto the steering wheel!”
