Ling Mo struck a pose that said "you'd better say something, or I'll chop you up", which indeed scared the man into trembling again, and he replied in a panic: "We're just temporarily hiding here..."

  "Nonsense." Ling Mo immediately interrupted him impatiently. If they really had to hide here, why bother making a scene?

  He hastily explained: "No, we are hiding here now. Actually, two days ago..."

  The knife tip was pressed against his throat, and all it took was a gentle push forward to end his life. At the critical moment of life and death, not many people can remain calm, let alone this person who looked quite timid.

  Ling Mo listened to him speaking incoherently, and immediately furrowed his brow. His companion couldn't help but get anxious for him, afraid that this would provoke Ling Mo, and hastily interrupted him: "Don't say any more, let me speak."

  The man hastily closed his mouth and looked at Ling Mo with a somewhat pleading gaze.

  "Go on, you speak." Ling Mo said with a glance at the man.

  Although his face was covered in a lot of blood, it could still be seen that he was a dark-skinned young man, probably no more than twenty years old, and looked like a student at X City University. He was also very scared, but compared to his companion, he appeared calmer and had a sharper tongue.

  "We just got here two days ago, and there's nowhere else to stay around here... Actually, we didn't even know you were coming, and the sound of the door opening just scared us. But I think, whoever opened the door definitely isn't a zombie, probably a survivor. But since we don't know what you're planning to do, let's catch you first and then talk..."

  As he spoke later on, he also felt a bit apprehensive, seemingly afraid that Ling Mo would get angry and directly kill his companions.

  But his companion reacted much more violently, directly opening his mouth to scold: "Tang Xiaoxue, have your mouth and anus switched places? Do you know how to speak? Are you trying to get me killed?! Big brother, big brother!" His neck was pressed against something, his body stiffened to the point where he didn't dare move, and could only stare at Ling Mo with wide eyes: "Don't be angry, we're not trying to catch you, just want to have a chat..."

  Ling Mo couldn't help but laugh at their conversation, but he also sensed that they didn't have any malicious intentions towards the survivors. He himself was cautious, just not to the point of acting impulsively like them.

  But thinking again, if it were an ordinary survivor, they would probably fall for it.

  After being frightened, a person's reaction is likely to be slightly delayed, and those who are timid may become so fearful that they cannot move. When the fake "zombies" rush up, most people can only surrender obediently.

  It's clear that they are still quite cautious, because in this situation, some survivors will have another reaction: Screw you all! Then instantly burst into battle, and in the desperate situation, they would counter-kill the two of them.

  So they waited for a few seconds and thought that Ling Mo's stillness absolutely belonged to the first situation, then someone tentatively pounced over.

  Unfortunately, Ling Mo was not scared silly, but quickly came to his senses and waited for him to deliver the goods with a playful attitude.

  "Does it sound like you guys often do this kind of thing?" Ling Mo slowly put down the short knife and asked with interest.

  He let out a long sigh, wiped his forehead with his hand, and his face suddenly looked even more haggard. He looked at Ling Mo with some trepidation: "How could I? This isn't the first time I've failed... Ah, sorry," he hastily changed his tone, "I didn't mean that..."

  "What are you so afraid of?" Ling Mo thought that this person was really too timid, could it be that he himself was emitting the legendary aura of slaughter? If it were to be said, then Ye Lian and Xia Na after they became zombies were much more frightening, the aura they emitted, that was truly murderous!

  But in short, it's not some kind of ethereal aura, but an aura of momentum!

  Only those who have truly formed a murderous intent and view people as food, like zombies, will possess that kind of aura. Only the killing intent revealed in their eyes is the real deal.

  Ling Mo had never really intended to kill from the moment he made his move. So seeing this person so frightened, Ling Mo couldn't help but feel a little helpless. He even thought to himself with some self-mockery, could it be that because he had recently been involved in too many deaths, he had already reached the point where even if he didn't intend to kill, his aura would still be intimidating?

  Of course, this was just his self-deprecation. In fact, in the eyes of these two people, they were so wary of Ling Mo because his previous performance had misled them.

  "This person looked at Ling Mo up and down, then said very seriously: "Because you're different from many survivors, I think you look really cool, big brother. You can face zombies without changing your expression, and I truly admire you from the bottom of my heart..."

  "He Pengpeng, stop flattering... " Tang Xiaoxue interrupted He Pengpeng's words with a snort, then turned to Ling Mo and said, "This big brother, we didn't mean to, nor do we plan to really lay hands on you, it's just... " Tang Xiaoxue showed a hint of helplessness, her tone also becoming somewhat sorrowful, "The heart is hard to fathom, can't be too careful."

  Ling Mo listened and snorted, if this was said by two big beautiful women, it would be no problem at all, because their bodies alone could provoke some malicious thoughts from the survivors. But you two are like walking toxic bombs, can any survivor still have any thoughts about you?

  But just then, Ling Mo suddenly thought of a possibility. Xiana still hadn't found any medicine, and he hadn't discovered anything on the first floor either. Could it be...

  Ling Mo's gaze towards these two people suddenly became somewhat abnormal: "The medicine in this hospital, is it in your hands?"

  Tang Xiaoxue and He Pengpeng's faces changed simultaneously, but He Pengpeng was still in a daze. Tang Xiaoxue pulled him towards herself and then vigilantly looked at Ling Mo: "What do you want to do?"

  He Pengpeng came back to his senses and the first thing he thought of was to make excuses: "What... what medicine? We don't know anything about it..."

  Ling Mo gave him a stupid look, then turned to Tang Xiaoxue: "Don't worry, I won't rob you. Actually," he said, taking out a package of instant noodles from his backpack and shaking it at the two, "I can trade with you."

  As soon as they saw instant noodles, Tang Xiao Xue and the other person's faces simultaneously revealed a look of longing.

  "Food..."

  He Pengpeng's gaze circled between the instant noodles and Ling Mo's backpack, but ultimately, when he saw the short knife in Ling Mo's hand, he suppressed his desire and withdrew his gaze.

  After last night's events, Ling Mo had made it clear that for these survivors on the verge of starvation, the backpack on his body was a fatal temptation. However, with enough strength, Ling Mo wasn't afraid that these two people would have greedy thoughts.

  If they don't mind taking a risk and trying to rob him, Ling Mo wouldn't mind killing them directly and taking the medicine away.
