    Chapter 21 Mysterious Person

    Before long, the baby zombie had crawled to the French window, its gray eyes fixed on Jiang Xianchuan, as if it had found its prey.

    Then, it used its sharp claws to constantly scratch at the glass, making a harsh sound.

    “Ah! What is that!” At this moment, Shi Yi, who came out of the kitchen, screamed in fright when she saw the baby zombie clinging to the window.

    “I don’t know, it just crawled up.” Jiang Xianchuan replied calmly.

    Hearing the noise, Li Lingyu also quickly walked to the window, curiously observing this strange zombie.

    “Forget it, the glass is good quality anyway, it can’t get in.” Jiang Xianchuan sighed, shook his head, and muttered to himself. After saying that, he turned around to draw the curtains, not wanting to look at the scene outside the window anymore.

    Just then, a black shadow flew from a distance, followed by a muffled sound.

    Jiang Xianchuan took a closer look and saw that it was an arrow that had accurately shot the zombie, which was trying to break through the window, in the head.

    Instantly, the zombie lost its life and fell straight down like a kite with a broken string.

    Jiang Xianchuan looked at everything that happened in front of him in surprise, secretly feeling fortunate in his heart.

    Before he could recover, he suddenly noticed a figure on the roof of the building opposite them. That figure seemed to have noticed Jiang Xianchuan’s gaze and raised a bright red flag, waving it vigorously at them to show friendliness and signal.

    Afterward, that flag disappeared from sight as quickly as a phantom, as if it had never appeared.

    However, Jiang Xianchuan immediately became alert, a sense of unease rising in his heart.

    After all, that person could easily kill a baby zombie, which meant that their hiding place was no longer safe. If that mysterious person was not kind, then they would face great danger.

    “Ah, I really hope he’s a good person!” Shi Yi’s tone was full of worry and anticipation.

    She knew that in this world full of danger and unknowns, a kind gesture might change their fate.

    But facing reality, they couldn’t be sure if the other person was really friendly. At this moment, they could only hope that the appearance of that mysterious person was accidental, rather than a malicious search.

    Because of the appearance of this mysterious person, the three of them felt very heavy and depressed.

    They didn’t know who this person was, why he appeared here, and even more so, what his purpose was. This unknown made them feel fear and unease, as if a heavy stone was weighing on their hearts.

    However, as Shi Yi brought the delicious food to the table, these negative emotions gradually dissipated. The aroma of the food wafted over, making people’s mouths water.

    “Come, come, try today’s potato stewed beef.” Shi Yi said with a smile, her eyes revealing a kind of anticipation and excitement.

    She hoped to use delicious food to resolve everyone’s worries and tension, so that everyone could relax and enjoy this beautiful moment.

    Jiang Xianchuan picked up a piece of beef with a rich sauce and put it in his mouth, feeling the tender, juicy texture and wonderful taste.

    A satisfied smile appeared on his face, as if all the troubles had disappeared at this moment.

    Immediately afterward, he picked up another piece of beef, gently handed it to Li Lingyu’s mouth, and said softly, “Come, try this.”

    Li Lingyu slightly opened his mouth, took the delicious beef, and carefully savored the taste.

    “Shi Yi, how would I live without you.”

    In the laughter of everyone, the mysterious person didn’t seem so important anymore.
