The reunion of mother and daughter was not marked by any dramatic scenes of weeping.
In fact, the two didn't even make eye contact.
From the moment Xu An stepped into the room, she felt a scorching gaze.
But she knew it wasn't time to reveal themselves yet.
It wasn't that they lacked the ability to subdue the man before them.
But what about after subduing him? There were at least a dozen people in this convenience store.
Including Xu Yan, there were only three of them, and they had to take care of a girl who was only eight years old.
Xu An didn't want to gamble with their safety and humanity.
The man looked at Xu An in exasperation, "Stop talking nonsense. Since you're in, you'd better shut your mouth and not meddle."
Zhou Haimei snorted disdainfully.
They all knew that they couldn't stay here any longer.
"Are you just going to leave this corpse here?"
Facing Zhou Haimei's suddenly changed tone, not only the man with the dagger was surprised, but Xu An was also a little taken aback.
But thinking of the corpse mentioned by Zhou Haimei,
Xu An seemed to have thought of something instantly and smiled without saying a word.
It seemed that this staged farce could end early.
"What do you mean?"
Zhou Haimei looked at the man as if he were an idiot.
"You're not naive enough to think that all the zombies in Zone B have been cleared, are you?"
"What do you mean?" In Zhou Haimei's gaze, the man inexplicably sensed a trace of fear.
Xu An added coldly from the side, "You killed someone, and the blood spilled all over the floor. If you don't deal with it, the smell of blood will spread out. Moreover, you insisted on us clearing out the supplies for you outside just now. The door was wide open, which intensified the spread of the bloody smell."
As soon as Xu An finished speaking, the fear that had disappeared from the people around them was instantly replaced by an even greater fear.
"Weren't the zombies attracted by the explosion yesterday? What are you talking about?"
Xu An was speechless.
These people hiding here really didn't use their brains at all.
How could there only be a few zombies in the entire Zone B?
What's more, the few that Xu An and Zhou Haimei blew up yesterday were not completely cleared.
Xu An said innocently, "But when we came, we said we were chased here by zombies. And you were shouting. Zombies are most sensitive to blood and sound."
"Then why did you still come in? And obediently gave me the supplies?"
As expected of the dagger man who was from the underworld, he didn't fall into disarray because of Xu An's few words.
"If a large number of zombies are coming here, why aren't you running away quickly? Why are you still coming in together?"
Xu An rolled her eyes. Of course, she came in to find her mother.
But she didn't intend to tell this man, who was clearly starting to suspect, these words.
Xu An didn't intend to go so far.
But upon seeing the lewd desire in the man's eyes, Xu An knew that this man had set his sights on them today.
And they clearly couldn't take Xu Yan and Yue Yue away safely.
Before leaving, Yue Yue's father gave Xu An a small bottle of special medicine.
That person repeatedly warned her.
This thing should not be used unless absolutely necessary, and he told Xu An that if an official rescue team came, she must hand this small bottle to them.
But if the rescue from the lighthouse didn't come, this thing could save their lives at a critical moment.
When Xu An learned what was in the small bottle, she was also greatly shocked.
This medicine could attract all the zombies in Zone B and gather them together.
And this concentration was a collection without combat ability.
Within half an hour, all the zombies attracted by this medicine would fall into a temporary slumber and would not actively attack humans, as if they were asleep.
Before leaving, Yue Yue's father also told Xu An the dosage of the medicine.
The moment Xu An saw this man, she thought of this method. When she opened the door and saw the corpse in the room, Xu An instantly thought of an excuse for why the zombies were chasing them.
This was why Xu An deliberately took her time at the beginning.
Of course, Zhou Haimei knew about this the whole time.
They wanted to attract a large number of zombies. As long as these people weren't foolish enough to rush towards the zombies, they wouldn't be in mortal danger. But if everyone scrambled to get out,
they would surely scatter.
At that time, Xu An could openly take Xu Yan and Yue Yue away.
And she wouldn't be suspected.
At Xu An's signal, Zhou Haimei carefully dripped a drop of the medicine onto the corpse.
The next second, Xu An smelled a special, slightly pungent odor faintly wafting over.
Xu An originally wanted to turn her head to see everyone's expressions.
She knew her senses were enhanced, so she didn't ask the people around her if they smelled anything.
But by observing the expressions of the people around her, Xu An knew that only she could smell this scent.
The man was still somewhat disbelieving.
"You guys, go and deal with this man's corpse. And you guys, close all the curtains in the room."
"Remember to prop the shelves against the door."
"I don't believe that if we haven't seen any zombies all morning, they would appear just because you said so. Even if zombies come, I'm not afraid."
After speaking, the man seemed confident, and a faint smile appeared on his pale face.
"As long as we block the door, we won't be afraid even if zombies come. This place is very sturdy."
Then, he glared at Xu An fiercely.
"And you two, stop causing trouble here. I can let you in, and I can also drive you out. You two should watch what you say, don't let me deal with you myself."
The man's mood was as disgusting as if he had eaten shit. He had personally let these two women in, and even stained his hands with blood for it. This was a big trouble.
But before the man could figure out how to deal with this matter, Xu An started sowing discord again.
It made the people around him seem like they were no longer afraid of him.
Just as the man was about to scold again, he noticed something was wrong.
The people he had scared into shivering earlier, after receiving his orders, all stood motionless.
It was as if they hadn't taken the dagger man's words to heart at all.
Indeed, the dagger man had just robbed this group of people of their supplies and now wanted them to work.
Quite a few brave young girls even looked coldly at the dagger man and said with firm tone.
"I won't help you. I want to leave here!"
