[][][] Chapter 4 – The Mister's Smile

unedited

If anyone had carefully looked at the car Bai Ling leapt over, they would realized it was a luxurious car or a limited edition one!

The driver who almost crashed into Bai Ling still haven't recovered from the shock . Due to the car braking, the exquisite figure of Bai Ling appeared as if it flew over it .

From the back seat, a pair of extremely gentle like jade eyes followed Bai Ling's figure and forgot to look at the document in his hands . That 24 or 25 years old young woman also hadn't anticipated they would almost ran into her . Such foolishness!

The owner of the pair of eyes slightly parted his tender lips and a gentle voice came out from his mouth . Anyone who heard it would feel their mind trembled yet at the same time they would be overcome by a sense of comfort . His gentle eyes were like a starfield as he revealed a dazzling smile .

The uncle who drove the car became somewhat nervous . He hurriedly looked into his rearview mirror and what entered his sight was an angelic face, handsome and gentle, as if it was a work crafted by the Gods . Such face combined with a pair of gentle eyes, that were profound like it held the universe within, and a row of spotlessly white teeth, which were exposed from the smile, made him peerlessly elegant and gave him an aura of noblesse combined with a gentle feeling like the warm of the sun . It made people feel like they were caressed by the spring breeze . The man only appeared to be in his late twenties, around 27 or 28 years old .

"Mister, are you alright?"

"I'm fine . Let's go . We must leave this place before it gets dark!" The voice overflowed with magnetism while retaining the original gentleness . Yet, sorrow could be felt from his tone .

"What may come, will come… The spread had already went beyond the scope of our control!"

He spoke as if this was merely an unrelated episode in someone else's life .

Bai Ling, who stood on the opposite street, seemed as if she sensed something . She looked at her arms and legs . Although she often exercised, this kind of fast reaction time shouldn't be something she was capable of at this time in her previous life . She should tested it out . It shouldn't be a metability, right?

The corner of her mouth pursed into a faint smile . It didn't matter what it was . Isn't it better to possess more life-saving means? She immediately rushed to her first destination . Her speed was abnormally fast . It was so fast that many people walking to and fro took notice of her .

Since she was so eager to return home, she didn't paid attention to the stare of a boy chewing a bubble gum while standing on a skateboard on the same intersection . His head was covered with a bandana and wore hip-hop style clothes . He looked completely dumbstruck at this moment . "Shit, man… I didn't think she had that much agility . Don't tell me she's a parkour fanatic?" The light of worship could be seen flashing through his eyes as he followed after her on his skateboard .

Bai Ling knew what she needed to do . First, she have to call her family . Unexpectedly, the call couldn't connect?

She wiped the sweats on her face and lifted her head to observe the surroundings . She dialed the number once again . In her mind, their walking speed of her surrounding was clearly too slow . It was currently rush hour and regardless of the place, there would be a vast crowd of people and a long queue of cars waiting at the red light . Even if it was the evening, since it was may, the weather had warm up considerably and there were many people roaming

roaming around .

When that fateful time arrive, this whole street would be doomed and the number of zombies would grow in fold .

Time was pressing . No matter what, she must take advantage of the chaos during the virus full outbreak to get out of the city!

Bai Ling tightened her fist as she couldn't maintained her highest speed!

How long did she run? Then, Bai Ling saw a shop that sold bicycles . A light flickered in her eyes as a trace of smile finally peered on her face . She directly ran into the shop .

Five minutes later, between two parked vehicles, she saddled on her bicycle and started to pedal . Same as before, her speed was far from slow, but her brows creased . Why was a 16 or 17 years old teenager boy in clothes decorated by metallic studs following behind her?

Right now, she had not time to care about him . She lowered her head and looked at her cellphone . She was burning with anxiety . Why the batteries had to die at this time?

"Hey! What in the world?" The boy followed Bai Ling for who knew how long . He even went through all kinds of passages in between high-rise buildings until their towering figures turn smaller in the distance . The sky had turned completely dark and the temperature had cool down a bit . The main point was how did she know all those shortcuts?

The answer was simple . In her previous life, Bai Ling wanted to escape from the legions of zombies and safely leave the city . Thus she had plan her itinerary countless time, so how could she not know every nook

every nook and cranny of this city?

Although she left the area with the densest human population, it didn't mean that the surrounding area was desolate . On the contrary, the outskirts had many shops opened, mainly those automobile concessions and car rental shops . There was even many supermarkets and residential areas .

Bai Ling looked at the time . "7:50 PM?" She suddenly wanted to curse out loud . Despite traversing the city without any obstructions and using all the shortcuts she knew, she still spent that much time to arrive here . There was only 40 minutes left .

Previously, the first incident of people biting and eating other people happened around 8:30PM . Since she was currently at the outskirts, she didn't know if the incident would happen ahead of time .

Fortunately, the car rental shop Bon Voyage wasn't far from here .

Why did she know about this shop? That's because she once helped the shop with their promotion campaign . Besides, they have all types of the cars that included many options .

After Bai Ling reached her destination, she ditched the bicycle on the ground and quickly ran into the shop .

It just happened the boss, a middle-aged man in his forties, was just done giving the key car to a client . When he saw the door opened and there was a customer coming so late in the evening, his first thought was to welcome the customer, but when he saw Bai Ling dashing towards him, he quickly recognized her . "Ah! Isn't it Miss Bai? What brings you here today?"

He immediately laughed . "Hahaha! The promotion plan your company gave us ended up pretty good . These days, the sales are increasing steadily . "

Bai Ling nodded lightly and politely returned his greetings . Perhaps due to living in the apocalypse for too long, she was no longer used interacting with those kind of cordial and good people .

Although she knew that time was ticking off, she remained calm and composed . "Boss Xiao, I came here I came here today to rent a car!" As Bai Ling spoke, she had already took out her bank card . That bank card contained all her savings she earned from her part-time jobs the last three years . Originally, the savings was meant to be kept until she had enough before giving it to her grandmother, uncle and little sister to use, but after the world ended, what was the use of money?

Whereas, food became the most precious thing and people would killed each other over a piece of bread . When she remembered about those times, her eyes darkened and she thought of her little sister .

"Oh?" The boss thought he misheard, but when he looked at her resolute eyes, he quickly nodded with a big smile . "Alright! Since Miss Bai needed a car, I'll give you a good price . I don't know which kind of car you want to rent?"

Without hesitation, Bai Ling pointed at the black colored latest Land Rover model shown on the car rental billboard .

This car had a high chassis with a pretty good performance . If possible, Bai Ling would have preferred a military-built Land Rover . Unfortunately, it was impossible to have that kind of car for commercial use .

Boss Xiao raised his head and smiled . The rental price for such car was quite expensive, he can negotiate for quite a lump sum . "Sure! How many days?"

"One day!" Bai Ling was a university student so of course she had her driver license and because her uncle work in a car repair shop, she picked up a few things by helping her uncle modifying and repairing second-hand cars!

Later during the apocalypse, those skills became her second nature as she would used them to escape from all kinds of zombies and throw off her trails the mutated beasts .

"Only one day?" Could it be that it's for an emergency? "Okay, come with me!" He didn't delay her and hurriedly waved at one of the employee and gave a few instructions .
