Chapter 674 - 673: Come On, Let Me Ride the Bumper
Li Yang was urgently replaced, and Guan Yu took over.
She painstakingly crawled over from the passenger seat and adjusted the seat after sitting down.
Shi Yuhuai and her height and leg length differed too much; she couldn’t see the road ahead from this position, and she had to stretch her toes to brake.
After adjusting the height and distance from the gas and brake pedals, she stretched her leg to push the brake while hunching slightly to look at the outside rearview mirror.
Though the rearview mirror was smashed, it wasn’t completely shattered. Luckily, a large central piece could still be used.
"Keep an eye out for me; I’m going to reverse and then turn back."
The back seat’s veteran drivers helped by watching the outside mirrors and constantly directing.
"Turn the steering wheel a bit more to the right."
"Slowly, don’t rush on the gas pedal."
"Okay, that’s it. Just turn the steering wheel counterclockwise all the way."
Guan Yu was fully focused, carefully operating according to their instructions. As soon as she heard she could turn directly, she quickly turned the steering wheel to the right, her anxious, hasty actions and serious expression attesting to her nerves.
Forced to switch seats and sitting next to Shu Ran in the passenger seat, Li Yang wanted to say something several times but swallowed it back each time.
At this point, he really couldn’t hold back, so he coughed amidst the silence and said, "Sister Guan Yu, your moves are indeed a bit obscene."
Guan Yu didn’t even glance at him, directly saying, "If you don’t want your insurance to kick in, I advise you to shut up."
"Alright." Li Yang immediately shut up.
The car finally turned around, and as Mu Qiu was tired from the hands-on operation, he leisurely pressed the second control lever.
"Let’s see what this zombie siege mode looks like."
The green inflatable vines at the starting point were still wildly dancing when the sharp-eyed Shu Ran noticed Mu Qiu sitting at the street corner, grinning at them, and her heart skipped a beat.
"Mu Qiu is causing trouble again!"
This time, no one stuck their head out to look; instead, they sat tightly packed, squeezing the middle person until they almost changed shape, only stopping when space was left on both sides, then quietly waited.
This time there weren’t any crazy inflatable vines drilling everywhere. It was a change to people.
From the alley entrances on Lotus Street—the places they had run through in the game—a group of slow-moving, shabbily dressed "things" emerged, looking completely at odds with the principles of truth and beauty in a civilized city.
Some alley was close enough that the thing emerged right against their car’s hood and windshield, pressing its bloody face enlarged in front of them.
Startled, Guan Yu’s body shook, hurriedly turning and braking, muttering under her breath.
"Oh my heavens! Should I brake or rush through?! Folks, don’t lean your heads over here!"
Of course, she could only brake.
These zombies weren’t just the inflatable toys from earlier; they were real people acting in the role, and you couldn’t just step on the gas and plow through them, right?
Brake pressed and released again, gas pedal released and pressed again, Guan Yu drove the old car forward with a jerk.
Mu Qiu held the remote control, laughing wildly.
"Hahaha! What a spectacular sight! Zombies surround as proclaimed! Finally, the real deal matching the pictures!"
Zhao Yu nudged her: "I think you can tone it down; be careful they might retaliate later."
"Don’t worry; we’ll soon be eating, no time to retaliate."
"... "
The group in the car was frustrated but had no time to vent, and the windows were broken, unable to prevent zombies from reaching inside.
Li Yang quickly switched places with Shu Ran sitting by the passenger window, scrambling to fend off hands stretching in from outside.
Shu Ran "sensibly" covered her mouth, constantly shrinking toward the center.
Chen Yi and the group sat in the far back row, observing the zombies outside. Li Yang pushed against zombie hands, glancing at them in the rearview mirror, suddenly recalling a biohazard movie watched before, and inexplicably said to those in the back, "Do these zombies just want something to eat? Throw one down and we can drive away, right?"
The car went silent for a moment.
Busy with the gas and brake pedals, Guan Yu heard him and looked with her mouth agape: "Brave kid! Who do you want to throw out? I’ll help you!"
The group in the back, along with Shu Ran, all stared at him.
Li Yang quickly waved his hand to deny, "No, no, no! I didn’t mean that! You just pretend I said nothing, I was just confused."
"I think it makes sense! How about Brother Huai and Chen Yi, huh? You’re a family after all. Shall we send you down to reunite with them?" Guan Yu was still escalating the chaos.
Shi Yuhuai contemplated saying something to deflate her life hopes entirely, unexpectedly hearing Cheng Zhirang’s voice chiming in.
"Maybe they’re looking for companions?"
Chu Qiu: "Already starting the internal conflict plot, huh? It’s one of the must-have plots in escape movies; is everyone watching the same movie?"
Han Xizheng: "Just empty talk, empty talk; putting someone down there means we have to redo it all over again, doesn’t it?"
"So if not for this rule, would you really do that?!" Chen Yi stood up with shock from the back row, bent over due to the ceiling, supporting himself against the front seat back, expressing condemnation for their coldness.
"Seriously misjudged you all! You know people’s true hearts in crisis; the ancients didn’t deceive me!"
Han Xizheng pressed him back down: "Calm down, calm down, we were just discussing the infeasibility of the method, not really doing it."
Chen Yi relaxed slightly, but before he was fully relieved, Shu Ran, who had been silently covering her mouth for a long time, suddenly spoke wistfully: "Actually, you don’t need to go down; sitting at the car’s rear could also attract them."
"...!" Chen Yi’s hair stood on end: "What the heck?!"
Shi Yuhuai pretended to smirk coldly: "Am I now worthless, so you want me to attract the zombies? People are ruthless."
Finishing, he straightened his face, lifting his hips, and tilted over onto Guo Yin and Cheng Zhirang, laying sideways in their arms, face-up, his head right in Cheng Zhirang’s lap, blankly meeting Cheng Zhirang’s lowered gaze.
Come on, hang me at the tail of the car.
Cheng Zhirang: "..."
Guo Yin: "..."
Two seconds of silence in the car exploded into mad laughter.
"My God! Brother Huai, your dignity fell!"
"Hahahaha, this is legendary!"
"Brother Cheng is so shocked his eyes widened!"
"Don’t do this, Brother Huai! Guo Yin is still young; don’t leave him with a shadow!"
"Indeed, with those curled-up legs! Hahaha, Brother Huai is so long!"
"The way he laid down is so skilled and natural, Brother Huai, be honest, have you secretly practiced?"
"If you change the person and expression, I’d think it’s a pair of lovers gazing at each other passionately, but the Internet remembers it, Brother Huai!"
