[Hunter] How to kill a zombie

's tone.

The knight played with this description in his mind.

In Meteor Street, it is rare for anyone to speak to children in the tone of an elder, except when they want to appear superior.For example, those unconvinced high-level members of the Senate, and some people who are powerful enough to do so.

But no one would speak in this - strange - reassuring tone.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but in the past few days, the smell of corpses on this woman's body has gradually been replaced by another indescribable smell, which makes people feel a little dazed.He saw the other's naked and defenseless neck, and wondered how likely it was that if he plugged in the antenna now, it would be delivered to the elders of the East District before Arthur rushed back.

However, this is not in a hurry.

"Ah, speaking of it," Xia Ke showed a cute smile, "Sister Zoe, haven't you eaten today? I just prepared some..."

Saying so, he was satisfied to see the flustered expression on that pale face.

After all, he hasn't played enough in this place yet.

food

eat.

Speaking of which, Zooey remembered that she had never had dinner with a knight.But you can't blame her, can you?After all, her staple food now is humans.You can't scare the kids, can you?

Zoe was actually a little surprised, probably because of the change in her physical structure, she didn't have much resistance to eating the same kind she used to have.Originally, she thought she would be very resistant.But after eating a few meals that Arthur helped her prepare—it has to be said that food was just food to her, and after learning that these foods were once human beings, she didn't feel as guilty as she imagined, even It's an uneasiness of conscience.She didn't know if it was a biological reason, or because she was too ignorant of her own cruelty and indifference, but thinking about it, she didn't have much resistance to eating chicken, duck and fish, maybe it's about the same as now.

It's strange to say that Zoe is already a zombie, why does she still have to eat?However, she found that after supplementing the food, the body would not rot further, so she also had a little understanding of the eating needs of zombies.It may seem ironic that something already dead is dependent on other life support activities.But it might be different if you think of zombies as a different form of life.Of course, Zoe herself couldn't do it anyway.

To die is to die, so what are you talking about?

So Zoe declined the blond boy's invitation to eat, explaining that she was not very hungry, and sent him to eat alone.Little did he know that all her actions were seen as a kind of conviction in the eyes of the knight. Although the knight had believed Zoe's words for the time being, he made a silent note in his heart.Continuous time without meals: five days.

These days, the knight's life in Arthur's shop has gradually gotten on the right track.Arthur's "goods" are all hidden somewhere, which is not the same place where he usually lives.The chivalrous man usually stays where Arthur lives, and is also the face of the "shop" to help.Although he still doesn't know how this well-known human trafficker treats him (Arthur is always very ambiguous on this issue), but they get along fairly peacefully.For Arthur, the knight is just a labor force he was sent after he reported his shortage of manpower to the elders of the East District. From this aspect, the knight is undoubtedly a qualified employee—except that he is a little younger.

On the one hand, the knight is still wondering when he can ask Arthur about his memory, and on the other hand, he is also observing Zoe, whom the elders of the East District have taken a fancy to.She never eats in front of people, and the knight has never seen her doing anything other than reading and dazed. She only helps Arthur occasionally, but in fact, she doesn't do as much as the knight.Since Arthur looked at it so preciously, you might think that the two had an affair, but after a few days of observation, the knight found out that it was obviously not the case.

There were a few times when the knight noticed something was wrong: for example, she didn't seem to feel pain, or at least she was relatively insensitive to pain.Once when using fire, she directly touched the burning handle with her hand, but there was no reaction. She didn't realize that something was wrong until the burnt smell came out.Arthur never let her get angry after that.The knight noticed that Zoe's hand had been scorched for the first two days, but on the third day, it suddenly healed, and he didn't know what happened.

Zoe was obviously not from Meteor Street, and his vigilance was so weak that it was almost nothing.If the knight wanted to, he would have sold her hundreds of times.But on the other hand, she is very strange, there is nothing particularly uncomfortable with the life on Meteor Street.

The knight doesn't know what life is like outside, but he knows that people who come to Meteor Street from outside are either strong or prey.Most of the latter couldn't survive a week on Meteor Street, or they lived dependent on other people.He glanced at Zoe, who was having a good chat with Arthur—this guy can be regarded as a typical example of relying on the strong to survive.

"Warrior?" A clear and gentle female voice called his name, those blue eyes were not like anything a knight had ever seen before, he silently put away the disdain in his heart, and turned to look at Zoe who called him . "Arthur wants you to come over."

"Good~"

The knight packed up his work and was about to go into the house to find Arthur, when he found Zoe staring at him with a strange look.Those blue eyes were focused and bewildered, as if looking at some unsolved mystery.This sight made the knight uncomfortable.But he still suppressed the displeasure, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Zooey shook her head and said, "No, it's just that you don't look like a child at all, Xia Ke."

child?

Xia Ke almost laughed out loud, wondering if she knew what he was talking about.

"You are really much more sensible than my younger brother." Zooey continued to sigh with emotion, and sat slumped in front of the counter of the store, propping half of her face with one hand, her face suddenly clouded with worry, "I don't know How is he now, oh..."

The young man's green eyes narrowed. He didn't know why Zoe's expression impressed him deeply.Maybe it was because of what she said, maybe it was because this was the closest he was to the so-called "family relationship". In short, he found that for a long time after that, when he heard others mention relatives, Zoe's thoughts were always in his mind. that look.

The task that Arthur assigned to him this time surprised the knight-Arthur asked him to help deal with the two low-level managers in the Eastern District.It doesn't matter if that means Arthur has ulterior plans for the East End, or he's testing the Vigilante, or even starting to trust the Vigilante.Because for the knight, those two people are just like stepping stones. If getting rid of these two people can bring him and Arthur closer, why not do it.After completing the task easily, the knight manipulated two people who were one round older than him to put on a small show in front of Arthur.Arthur lazily stood against the wall, whistled, and said, "You can do it, you're from the operating department?"

"If you want to get some information from them, I can—"

"No, no, no." Arthur waved his hand, "Let them take off their clothes and wash them up and go into the kitchen."

The knight didn't expect Arthur's response to be like this, and he was stunned for a long time: "The kitchen...?"

Arthur tilted his head and showed a mysterious and evil smile: "Good boy, take them to the kitchen, we will have a big dinner tonight."

eat human?

Meteor Street is not without this phenomenon, but it usually only happens under extreme circumstances.Of course, the knight also knows that some elders with strange tastes like to eat human flesh - he has never eaten it himself.

The knight's expression was blank for a moment.He blinked his eyes, and then realized that Arthur burst out into a shocking laugh, patted his shoulder boldly with his big hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry, these two are not for us. Look at your green face have to."

"Our family has a monster with an astonishing appetite." As Arthur said, he looked in Zoe's direction with great interest and rubbed the stubble on his chin with one hand.

About an hour later, the smell of food wafted from the store, which could not be concealed even in such a foul-smelling environment like Meteor Street.Zooey was reading a book, and her stomach growled when she smelled the barbecue.She forgot for a moment that she was no longer a human being, and she would no longer find ordinary meals delicious.

"Oh, Zoe, don't read the book, come and eat." Arthur greeted, and Zoe found that the knight was setting the table, and the expression on his face was indescribable.

"Eh??" Zooey walked to the dinner table only to realize that today's dinner was extraordinarily rich.She has been coming to Meteor Street for so long, and she has never seen Arthur prepare such a sumptuous dinner.To be honest, she didn't even know Arthur could cook.

And... Could it be that Arthur wants her to have dinner with the knight?

Have a meal?

she?

Isn't that...

"Don't worry, neither of these two people have any illnesses." Xia Ke interrupted suddenly, looking at her teasingly, "If you are worried."

"Eh???"

Zooey looked at the knight in horror, and then at Arthur.The latter shrugged indifferently, and said, "We haven't held a proper welcome party since the chivalrous men came. I got these from the city, ah, of course your share is not, that one is from local production. It’s really troublesome to do it in the city…”

"Don't worry, enough to eat."

"Sister Zoe, I really didn't expect you to have such a hobby." The knight joked.

"I--"

Zooey felt a little dazed for a moment.
