The villainess is always pretending to be the Virgin Mary - Chapter 24
“However…” Gu Chi changed the subject, “I will pay more attention to Zhang Bin. I will not let the team take risks until today’s matter is investigated properly.”
Hearing that, a smile finally appeared on Chi Ying’s face, and her pupils lit up, as if the stars in the sky sparkled inside her eyes, glowing with fine light.
Gu Chi took a look and suddenly got uncomfortable. So he looked away.
“You go back first and keep a distance from him. Also, I hope you can keep it a secret from other team members.”
Chi Ying’s nose fluttered, but she didn’t agree. She was a little worried, if she didn’t tell other people, they would be unprepared…
“Don’t worry, I will protect them.”
As if seeing her worry, Gu Chi comforted her.
Chi Ying just nodded.
—
“Captain, what did you talk to the girl about?” Lu Yunfei smiled in a gossiping mood.
He didn’t notice that Song Shi’s face beside him changed instantly, and he said to himself, “What did you talk about for so long?”
Gu Chi glanced at Chi Ying beside him, and said, “We just chatted for a while.”
In the end, he seemed to feel that his words were a little perfunctory, and he immediately added, “We met too many zombies today, and Chi Ying said she was afraid.”
“…”
Chi Ying’s eyes widened.
She didn’t!
Song Shi sneered coldly in her heart, but still smiled gently, “We are already used to this kind of life, so we didn’t notice that you were afraid for a while. Also, you’re seeing this kind of scene for the first time, so you will inevitably be afraid, right?”
“Actually, I don’t blame her, I was also a little scared when I saw that group of zombies today!” Mu Yu said with some fear.
“Captain, what’s going on here? I’ve never seen so many zombies besieging together before.”
Gu Chi shook his head, “It’s hard for us to find the answer just by guessing here.”
Chi Ying subconsciously looked at Gu Chi, and happened to meet his gaze, and both of them saw a clear look in each other’s eyes.
“You stay here, I’m going to go out to see the situation.” He suddenly turned his head and looked at Professor Lin who was sitting behind, “Can I take Zhang Bin with me?”
Everyone looked at him in surprise, but there was a flash of cruelty on Zhang Bin’s face.
Did this man discover something?
Professor Lin felt that his brain could not keep up with the thoughts of young people, and he wondered, “It is possible, but why bring him?”
Gu Chi had expected their reaction, and said lightly, “I suspect that those zombies may have undergone a second mutation. The only people in the team who understand this are Zhang Bin and you. I need to fully ensure your safety, so among the people I can take, there is only one option, Zhang Bin.”
“Captain, I want to go with you,” Lu Yunfei lazily said.
“Then I want to go with you too!” Mu Yu immediately raised her hand.
The rest of the people also looked at him with firm eyes. The meaning of it was self-evident, they were all in the same team.
“With me?” Gu Chi’s voice sank instantly, and he said very seriously, “With your current powers, not only you can’t help, I’ll be distracted because I need to protect you. The situation outside is not optimistic, but with my ability, it is not a problem to come back alive.”
“Stay here to recover your powers,” he said coldly.
Being criticized by him in such a tone, the rest of the people didn’t dare to say anything for a while.
What Gu Chi said was right, they would become a burden to him if they followed him. It would be easier for Gu Chi to be alone with them.
Chi Ying watched them from the side, eating melons in silence. Gu Chi was a villain, so he would definitely not die so easily. She just needed to stay there and wait for him to come back with peace of mind.
[That’s probably not feasible.]
Chi Ying: “Huh?”
[Do you know why Gu Chi was the biggest villain in the book?]
Chi Ying shook her head in her heart, tentatively guessing, “Because he disagreed with the male and female leads? Could it be that he was the kind of villain who would sacrifice other people for righteousness?”
Many of the more lovable villains seemed to be of that type, not simply bad…
Based on her current impression of Gu Chi, he didn’t look like an extremely bad villain who was hated by many people.
[No.]
Chi Ying: “Why is that?”
[Gu Chi was a very decent supporting character in the early stage. The reason why he turned into a villain in the book was because he was accidentally bitten by a zombie when he went out on a mission in the middle and late stages of the story.]
Chi Ying’s eyes widened in disbelief.
[He did not become a low-level zombie, but mutated into a zombie leader with high IQ and resourcefulness… After he became the leader, he concealed his identity and directly used his status as a senior commander to sneak into the Human Alliance’s headquarters.]
Chi Ying: “Oh, okay.”
[In the later period, he used the identity of “Gu Chi” to do a lot of things to destroy the male lead, female lead and human plans. It was not until the last moment of the story that the fact that Gu Chi had already mutated into a zombie leader was discovered by the female lead, and it became the biggest twist of the whole novel.]
Chi Ying: “So you mean… Is it possible that Zhang Bin was the zombie that bit him?”
[I don’t know about this either, the book didn’t explain when Gu Chi was bitten. However, if you don’t want Gu Chi to mutate into a zombie leader, I think you’d better go with him. Aren’t you very strong? Certainly, you will not let him have such an accident.]
