BTW, I plan to change all country names to fictional names (I choose flower theme) so that I won't get into trouble when I publish this book into an ebook. Thanks to my editor for pointing out the dangers of using copyrighted names, even if it's Instagram or Facebook!

I will start changing from this chapter onwards! I'm still rewriting from chapter 1, which I had not updated on any public platform yet.

Korea = Crocus.

The flowers have no relation to Korea, nor do I intend to match anything. From now on, please consider Crocus and other 'country' names as fictional countries with no relation to real-life countries on Earth. This will be the same for other country's names!



XG 99 - strip down in front of Chen Yibo

There was no way Wong Xue Guo would strip down in front of Chen Yibo.

Chen Yibo failed to change her mind, especially when he was also shying away from the idea of her removing her clothing in front of him.

So he was kicked out of the washroom and with the lights turned on, she was able to check by herself. After confirming there was no serious injury from visible view, she quickly dressed up again to avoid catching a cold. The time taken to put on her clothing lengthened now that her body aches started screaming for attention.

As for addressing her mild cuts and the bruises decorating her skin? No, she was too exhausted to do anything to them. Not to mention, she would not get into trouble for leaving them to be tended to back at the laboratory, surrounded by warmth and her mother's care.

It was a bit saddening to see her scratched face that might leave a scar, but she was no longer a noble lady that would mourn for their beauty instead of cherishing their lives. After cleaning the scratch marks on her cheek, Wong Xue Guo tidied herself as best as she could, and winced when she closed her palm around her sword handle. Her bruised palms and knuckles could only be wrapped with bandages for now, even if it would be scary if the bleeding stopped and the bandage stuck onto her wound.

Her legs were faring much better than her arms, so she considered kicking more zombies later. With the zombies' flesh rotting to a great degree, would it be easy for her to stomp a hole in their chest?

Chen Yibo was waiting outside when she exited the washroom. They gathered together with others that were surrounding the lit up monitors thanks to the generator.

"Oh, little princess, want to watch how the virus first started spreading in Crocus?" Kang Xunsu asked from his lazily sprawling pose on the floor.

Not only did Ta Kei find the experiment records, but he also hacked into the surveillance video records. Just as Kang Xunsu said, someone had gotten into the eighth floor without permission and accidentally got bitten by an experimented patient that was in the middle of spasming. That person quickly left when doctors were coming, immediately exited the building, and drove away.

"Is it right to blame that woman? What if she wasn't?" Wong Xue Guo asked dubiously.

"She lives in the first infected area," Beom Seok noted with a gloomy face.

Okay, so maybe she was the first zombie outbreak in Crocus.

On the ninth floor, also the VIP floor, there were two figures with their heads sticking together, running down the corridor in a great synchronism. Their faces were identical and currently filled with anger, frustration, and anxiousness.

"We have laughed at 'Ghost' for failing to kill one girl. This must be our karma," the head on the right said dejectedly.

It was an acceptable mistake to fail in killing Vihaan, but how could they not kill a young girl with no ability?
