Liu Gan didn’t head in the direction straight back to the hotel but rather he took a path that was diagonal leading to another direction. After ten minutes of top speed running, Liu Gan confirmed that the corpse tide hadn’t followed them so they stopped to rest.
”What are you holding?” Liu Gan asked Yin He.
”It was the thing that made the whistling noise. I listened to you and I didn’t attack it, but instead I stole it.” Yin He placed the object in front of Liu Gan.
It was actually a baby. The mouth was stuffed shut by Yin He, with a rag that she picked up off the ground.
But the baby's expression and skin color... it isn’t normal. There was a hint of green color.
”The whistling noise was created by this so I stuffed it shut with a rag. This way it can’t make any noise. Those zombies won’t be able to chase us anymore.” Yin He explained to Liu Gan. Afterall she complied with his instructions just not all of it.
”This?” Liu Gan looked at the baby that Yin He held in her arms. Liu Gan thought that the zombie was weird, but it didn’t seem to be a threat like the Variant Zombie. Their image of an Advanced Zombie was destroyed in an instant by this baby. Even if this baby was a Variant Zombie, it still didn’t quite match the ability a Variant Zombie was supposed to have.
Wang DeCheng and Han GuangMing also walked over, watching the baby Yin He held. They both had a skeptical look on, since they didn’t expect the center of the tide of zombies to be because of this object. They thought it was going to be a very strong Boss.
“Aside from the baby, what else did you see at the center of the zombies?” Liu Gan asked Yin He.
”There’s a building with sharp pointed roof and pointed eaves to match it. The tiles were a golden color. This baby was lying inside, and the zombies formed a circle around the building. But they stopped a few meters short from the building and I just saw this baby isolated, laying there. So I decided to steal it.” Yin He described to Liu Gan.
Listening to Yin He recount what she saw, Liu Gan begun to understand the situation a little more. At the top of the mountain should be a temple. By placing the baby within the temple, it probably lured all the nearby zombies over. However, the one uncertain issue was why didn’t the zombies attack it. Rather, it seemed as if they were guarding it.
Liu Gan pulled the rag out from the mouth of the baby and the results were as expected, it matched the cries of a normal baby. However, the sound was as sharp as a whistle. Now that the baby was so close, it was an ear-piercing sound. Liu Gan’s eardrum felt like it was going to burst, so he quickly stuffed the rag back into the mouth of the baby to stop the noise.
”We should leave here first. There might have been some zombies that have heard the cries of the baby and are heading over to this location,” Liu Gan looked around. With the other three, they headed towards the main road. Even if the avalanche of zombies followed after them, Liu Gan’s group would give them the slip when they headed back toward the hotel.
As the four of them were side by side, walking on the main road. The rain shower lightened, as if the clouds were almost depleted of water, and the gusts of wind lessened considerably compared to earlier.
