Chapter 120
H City.
At this time, Xiao Ji's restaurant was also taking shape.
In a place filled with zombies, opening a restaurant would certainly be inconvenient.
Such as having to find ingredients themselves at the beginning.
The system's ingredient library could only be unlocked after serving the first customer.
By now, she had already served quite a few customers.
Until the door was knocked on again, she smiled and said, "Welcome."
The young girl was not very old, but she cooked delicious dishes.
Of course, the system's assistance played a role as well.
As long as she completed tasks, she could obtain various things.
However, Xiao Ji was a little surprised when she saw a big dog walk in.
She had hosted zombies and humans before.
But this was the first time hosting an animal.
"Wow, it's a big dog. What would you like to eat? You can speak directly, and I'll understand," said Xiao Ji, wearing an apron. Her eyes were no longer red but a brownish color closer to human eyes.
Clearly, Yu Qingxian's hunch was correct - Xiao Ji did want to become human again.
If Xiao Ji truly became human, it would naturally be a great help to Gu Wanqing.
However, Yu Qingxian remained at the doorway and didn't enter.
She was afraid that the aroma of cooked food inside would make her feel nauseous.
But strangely, when the T-Rex pushed the door open, although the smell of food wafted over, there was no nausea from the cooked food.
Nevertheless, she squatted outside.
The surrounding houses were all dilapidated, but this restaurant looked clean and luxurious.
There were hardly any zombies around either.
Enough to prove that this place had frequent visitors.
But could Xiao Ji understand what the T-Rex was saying?
Yu Qingxian squatted outside, gazing absentmindedly at the sky.
It was May already.
Time had passed quite quickly.
Previously, she had told Pei Yu'an that she was coming to find zombies that didn't eat humans.
But now it seemed that Xiao Ji no longer qualified as a zombie, having regained a semi-human state.
And she had even opened a restaurant...
Thinking of this, Yu Qingxian immediately took out her phone to record it.
She had read stories about opening shops in the apocalypse, so could it be that Xiao Ji was not actually the zombie heroine from an apocalypse novel, but rather the shopkeeper heroine?
But Xiao Ji had said she could command zombies.
It seemed that the young Xiao Ji was quite capable.
Pondering this, Yu Qingxian noted it down in her memo.
"Sister, why are you squatting outside? Would you like to come in and sit?" Xiao Ji pushed open the glass door and saw Yu Qingxian squatting at the entrance.
Startled by Xiao Ji's voice, Yu Qingxian hurriedly shoved her phone back into her pocket.
After all, the contents on her phone were not meant for others to see.
She turned her head to see Xiao Ji leaning out and staring at her.
Upon seeing Yu Qingxian looking at her, Xiao Ji seemed to realize something.
"It's alright, I'm the only one in this shop. With the big dog here, you don't need to be so tense," Xiao Ji said in a more relaxed tone, then stepped out and extended her hand to Yu Qingxian.
Yu Qingxian was grabbed by Xiao Ji and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Suddenly, she recalled the zombie she had previously dragged around without letting go.
She could finally understand the feelings of that zombie.
Yu Qingxian vowed never to force any other zombies again.
However, since Yu Qingxian had something to ask of Xiao Ji, she was dragged into the restaurant by the little girl.
Upon entering the restaurant, Yu Qingxian did not feel any olfactory assault from the food.
In fact, she could sense that the food was probably delicious.
At this time, the T-Rex was already eating.
Yu Qingxian could only awkwardly sit on the couch by the entrance, watching Xiao Ji busily working.
"Sister, would you like something to drink? Or eat something?" Xiao Ji asked, gesturing towards a refrigerator nearby.
Yu Qingxian's gaze followed, seeing that all the drinks inside were red in color.
But they were labeled with the types of blood they contained.
Yu Qingxian: ...So this little girl also did business with zombies.
She had really underestimated this young girl.
"No need, I'm not hungry," Yu Qingxian declined Xiao Ji's offer.
But Xiao Ji still grabbed a bottle of water from behind her and walked out with a tray.
The items on it looked delicious, resembling watermelon and strawberries.
But not quite identical.
"These things can be eaten by zombies since the food here is not from Earth. But I'm only telling you this, Sister," Xiao Ji said as she sat across from Yu Qingxian.
She picked up a fork and handed a piece of fruit to Yu Qingxian.
Yu Qingxian accepted it but didn't put it in her mouth.
Xiao Ji, on the other hand, shamelessly stuffed two pieces of fruit into her mouth.
Yu Qingxian mustered her courage and put the fruit into her mouth as well.
She was supposed to have no sense of taste when eating these things.
But when she felt the sweet taste spreading in her mouth, she was surprised.
She could actually taste the flavors.
It seemed these fruits were not ordinary fruits, nor were they from Earth, but rather from Xiao Ji's restaurant system.
After trying some other items, she found them to be delicious as well.
However, instead of going down her esophagus into her stomach after swallowing, they dissolved into energy that permeated her limbs.
"Delicious, right? Don't worry, I know you're a zombie, so I won't give you anything meant for humans to eat," Xiao Ji said.
Hearing Xiao Ji's words, Yu Qingxian was surprised to learn that there were things specifically made for zombies to eat.
It seemed this Xiao Ji did business with both zombies and humans.
"Actually... I came to find you for a reason this time..." Yu Qingxian fiddled for a long time, her fingers almost twisted together, before finally saying these words.
"Hmm? What's the matter? If I can help, I will," Xiao Ji tilted her head and looked at Yu Qingxian.
How could she say that she was able to bind to this system and learn her true desire to become human, all because of Yu Qingxian?
She still wanted to become human.
So the heavens had given her an opportunity.
Of course, Xiao Ji was very grateful to Yu Qingxian and looked forward to seeing her again.
But when they reunited, the high-level zombie that had been with her was gone, replaced by a big dog.
Yu Qingxian didn't expect Xiao Ji to agree so readily either.
She didn't want to hide anything from Xiao Ji, so she told her what Pei Yu'an had said.
After listening, Xiao Ji nodded understandingly: "I see, the officials are looking for zombies that don't eat people. I indeed don't eat people, but now I'm not entirely a zombie anymore."
In other words, she wasn't sure if she could be of help.
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingxian looked towards Xiao Ji.
Indeed, judging from her appearance, she no longer looked like a zombie at all.
If Yu Qingxian told others that Xiao Ji was a zombie, no one would probably believe her.
So in the end, the zombie that doesn't eat people is herself?
Then her trip wasn't in vain after all.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingxian glanced at the Tyrannosaurus Rex lying on the ground and felt that the trip wasn't entirely fruitless.
"Xiao Ji, do you like dogs?"
The sudden question made Xiao Ji and the Tyrannosaurus Rex look at each other.
They seemed to understand what Yu Qingxian meant.
"Of course I do, I just don't know if it's willing to stay," Xiao Ji said.
She certainly loved dogs, especially such a beautiful dog with special abilities.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex also got up from the ground and walked over to Yu Qingxian.
Yu Qingxian patted its large head and said, "I probably won't be able to take care of you anymore. You should go with her. She's someone I trust."
After realizing that Xiao Ji was no longer a zombie, Yu Qingxian had made up her mind.
Shi Xingyu had seen through her thoughts long ago.
She had always been partial to humans.
Even though she wasn't good at interacting with them.
