A Fake Holy Mother in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 120 – Who will these three people be? (3)

At a loss for words, Bei Nuan turned around and lowered her voice to ask, “Lu Xingchi, what are you doing? Are you flaunting how amazing you are?”

Lu Xingchi's expression didn't change.
“Am I not amazing?”

He was behaving too childish lately.
Bei Nuan retorted, “If you're so amazing, do you know his name?”

Lu Xingchi stopped talking.

Bei Nuan calmly said, “His name is Fang Chen.”

Abruptly having his name called out, the boy was so frightened that he almost dropped the swiss cake roll.

Du Ruo was quick at thoughtfully encouraging.
“No way, Bei Nuan, you can even guess names? You're so smart!”

Fang Chen had already regained his composure and figured it out.
“I know how.
She saw my name on my license plate.”

On the bumper of his toy car, there was a painted license plate with numbers that looked like a birth date, and his name was written in small pinyin font underneath those numbers.
If Bei Nuan hadn't already seen Fang Chen's in the taskbar, she wouldn't have noticed his name.

After the psychological shock from Bei Nuan, Lu Xingchi finally stopped talking.

Bei Nuan directed the defeated Lu Xingchi to step back, then she said, “That Big Brother Du Ruo, who likes to praise people, come over here.”

Under the triple friendly attack of Bei Nuan, Du Ruo, and another swiss roll cake, Fang Chen finally softened.

The child lived nearby.
When the zombie virus outbreak happened, his parents weren't home, and they never came back.
Something had happened to his grandma since then, and he only had his older brother left.
In the past, only his older brother came out to look for supplies.
However, his older brother had been sick the past two days, so Fang Chen could only come out to look.

His brother and him used the toy car to look for supplies.
The toy car was a birthday gift from his dad.
His dad had used metal sheets for the gift.

Later on, when the zombie virus outbreak happened, and his dad didn't come back, his older brother remodeled the toy car using the leftover materials from the birthday project.
He installed a metal cover on top and wrapped metal around the bottom of the car to protect the wheels, making it into a small portable fortress that could be used for emergency shelter.

Although his older brother's handwork was rough, it was functional.

The bottom of the car had to be protected because the car relied on foot power, which would expose their feet to the zombies.

(T/N: Below is what I imagine the toy car looks like minus the protected coverings.)

There was also a panel by the feet area.
When their feet were tucked back into the car and the panel was moved over and locked in place, the car would become completely sealed, leaving only air holes for ventilation.
Thus, there was no way for zombies to pull people out of the car.

“Zombies have such good senses of smell.
Won't they smell that someone is inside?” Tang Tang asked.

“There's such a strong smell.
You haven't smelled it?” Jiang Fei asked.

As soon as Bei Nuan entered the place, she smelled it.

Fang Chen and his car stinked with the smell of eucalyptus oil, which covered up any human odor.

Pretty smart.

Dr.
Duo's sympathetic heart immediately emerged, and he said to Fang Chen, “I'm a doctor.
We have medine.
Take me to see your brother.”

Then, he turned his head and asked Lu Xingchi, “It's not easy for two children.
Let's go see their home?”

Bei Nuan naturally wouldn't miss her opportunity to increase her Holy Mother value.
Moreover, Fang Chen was the target of her Holy Mother's wish task.
She had to fulfill three of his wishes.

Bei Nuan also crooned with Du Ruo, “Lu Xingchi ~”

In contrast, Fang Chen didn't say anything.

Lu Xingchi glanced at little Fang Chen and coldly said, “Don't want us to go there? That's fine.
I don't want to go to your home at all.
There's no benefit for me to go there.”

Once he said that, Fang Chen felt relieved.
“Okay, I'll take you guys there.”

Fang Chen opened the canopy of his toy car to go back inside the car.

Du Ruo couldn't hold back his laughter.
“You don't have to go back into your small car anymore.” He pointed at Lu Xingchi.
“With him, you can walk on the sidewalk without fear.”

Fang Chen dubiously looked at the crossbow in Lu Xingchi's hand.

Three minutes later, he witnessed Boss Lu's formidableness.

Out on the road, Lu Xingchi never missed a single shot with his crossbow.

Every time a zombie was shot, Fang Chen shivered.

Du Ruo was considerate and noticed this.
He suggested, “If seeing that scares you, don't look.”

“I'm okay.” Fang Chen shook his head and silently stood at the front to lead everyone to his home.
