Chapter 177: Humanity

"You actually eat people!!"

I felt like the blood vessels in my body were about to explode, and my eyes were already blood-red, in fact, I should have expected it, but unfortunately I didn't want to admit it...

"Huh."

In the face of my angry accusations, she just chuckled, her eyes were a little disdainful, and the corners of her mouth were a little sarcastic.

I narrowed my eyes, my hands trembling with anger involuntarily grabbed the snatch, the woman in front of me was no longer human, she should be in pain when she lived like this, maybe I should have ended her pain earlier, even if it was in an extreme way.

"Nonsense!! Sister Tingting won't eat people!! ”

Silly vigorously blocked in front of her, his expression was angry, but his behavior told me that Sister Tingting, who wanted to hurt him, had no way.

Out of the corner of my eye, I also noticed that there were nearly two dozen scarlet zombies swaying not far away, I thought, they should be under her control, plus stupid strength, even if there is Yu by my side, the odds of winning don't seem to be great.

The atmosphere seemed to be tense in an instant, the air seemed to freeze, I never thought that this girl's meeting would be in such a tense way, and I didn't expect that Silly Dali would protect her like this, perhaps, this is the dependence and emotion that they have generated along the way.

"Huh."

It's just that her face didn't change, and she didn't command those zombies to attack me, she just chuckled: "This little girl was picked up by me from the pile of corpses, her limbs were twisted, but she is not dead, but she should not live long." ”

"That's not an excuse for you to eat people."

I interrupted her with a cold face.

"Which eye did you see me eating people?" Her disdainful and somewhat cold eyes showed undisguised disgust and contempt: "Selfish and humble people are always so self-egoed. ”

Her words undoubtedly pierced me in the heart, but I held back my anger, because I could tell from her words that things were not what I imagined, that I was too subjective, but in fact I didn't doubt my own thoughts, I just wanted to hear her explanation, an excuse that could give me self-comfort.

She took out a mouse from a plastic bucket next to her, it was supposed to be a mutated mouse, larger than a cat, I had seen this kind of mouse before, and it was particularly lethal.

But the mutant mouse in her hand should be dead, but not long after it died, as if it was strangled alive, she skillfully grabbed the kitchen knife on the cutting board, stood up from the cotton mat on the ground, walked aside, and used the knife to cut the neck of the mutant mouse, and then skillfully peeled off the whole mouse skin, and then cut off the rat's head, cut open the abdomen of the mouse, took out the internal organs, and rinsed it with water a little, turned her head to look at me: "Hmm, this is my food, do you want to taste it?" I've done experiments, and they just mutated because of the virus, and it should be said that the virus mutated in their body, and it doesn't spread the virus like zombies. ”

Her indifferent expression sent chills down my spine, but she didn't care what I thought, but tore off one of the mouse's bloody thighs and began to chew it.

Although I was ready to believe her, I couldn't help but churn in my belly and my scalp was tingling when I saw this scene.

Silly Dali seemed to be accustomed to it, he squatted on the ground, faced her, and pointed to the bag of food he brought: "Sister Tingting, I also brought food, I'll help you catch mice later." ”

After listening, she wiped her bloodstained hand on her body, and after confirming that it was clean, she put her hand on the stupid head and rubbed it, with a natural and soft smile: "Good." ”

In fact, this girl is very beautiful, I have not seen her smile, but her smile touched me very much, it was a gentle smile with maternal brilliance, no wonder Silly Dali would protect her so much, thinking, I was also a little jealous.

"It's full of mutated rats, do you think I need to eat people for food?" As she spoke, she smiled at me, the kind of indifferent joke: "It is precisely because of my existence that the people who live on the ground can avoid the invasion of mutant rats." ”

I closed my eyes gently, then opened them, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." ”

"You didn't misunderstand me." She shook her head, pointed at the zombies, and said calmly: "Just because I don't eat people doesn't mean they don't eat people." ”

Hearing this, I subconsciously frowned.

"Of course, I only let them attack living creatures when they protect themselves, and there are often piles of corpses outside, so they have plenty of food."

"It's inhumane."

My tone was a little heavy. Yes, it's disrespectful to the dead, these simple and common pre-disaster worldviews still exist in my mind and affect me, and as ridiculous as it is, it at least shows that I'm still a normal person.

"Humanity?"

The corners of her mouth outlined a sneer again: "Killing people is humanity?" How did these dead people come about? In addition to freezing to death and starvation, almost three-tenths of them die of unnatural causes, humane? Scold. ”

She chuckled disdainfully, and pointed at the girl whose limbs were twisted: "When I picked her up in the pile of corpses, there were several guys who stole corpses to eat and fought for her, thinking that her nutritional value was relatively high, and her meat was tender and juicy・・・・・・ oh, I forgot to tell you, every night, I can meet several groups of people who come here to steal corpses to fill their stomachs." ”

She seemed to say that she was tired and had no appetite, so she put the skinned dead mouse in her hand on the cutting board, wiped her hands, and sat on the cotton mat with a calm and indifferent expression:

"In this world, there is no humanity anymore, please put your hypocritical sense of justice in a useful place, you will find that these sense of justice are like water in a watering can, every time you consume a little bit out, there will be a little less, because there is no one around you who can replenish the so-called positive energy, they are like magnets, little by little, they will suck you towards them and hollow out what you hold in your heart."

I frowned slightly, what she said was a bit old-fashioned, but I could see the despair and emptiness in her eyes, and the sudden lightness...

After that, she smiled and looked at me: "Dali is a good boy. ”

I silently glanced at the silly snuggled next to her, with a silly look of relief, and exhaled a breath of comfort: "Actually, you don't need to say this, you are still young, the world is not as bad as you think, at least, the sun will still rise as usual, right?" ”

"Huh."

She smiled again, but the beautiful and indifferent smile brought a sense of despair without desire, as if she was already seeking relief: "The sun? Can I still see the sun? Even you want to shoot me, do you think people in the outside world can accept the existence of an alien like me? ”

As she spoke, she shook her head: "Impossible, except for the strong force, no one can accept my existence, even me, is almost unbearable." ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hands, still white and delicate, as if they had not been rough by the change of environment, but her ten fingers, as if there were no fingers, no, just no, there were dark red blood scabs on them.

"You don't have to look at me like that."

She seemed to notice the pity and sympathy in my eyes and a hint of mixed emotion.

"They grow back every two days, and every two days, I have to cut them off with a kitchen knife and finger by finger, and every few days I have to suffer like a drug addiction." As she spoke, her body twitched slightly, her face was hideous and painful, her voice trembled a little, but her tone was calm as if her heart had been pricked by a needle: "Living like this, it's really better to live than to die." ”

"No..."

I struggled inwardly, fighting between selfishness and righteousness, but it seemed that one of them had won, and I didn't know which one.

"I can accept you."

I took a deep breath and let go of my clenched fists, perhaps because of my excess of sympathy, or maybe I was glad that I had escaped the same pain as hers, but I could feel her desperation, just as I did when I was scratched by a zombie.

"No, you don't have to comfort me, this so-called well-intentioned deception will disgust me."

She shook her head, but I saw a sudden flash of longing in her desperate eyes, she was desperate for recognition, but stubbornly and resolutely refused.
