Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Chapter 14: can Abigail still wake up  

"So I'll always have something to eat..." Daisy nodded contentedly as she ate her cookies, silently praising her own cleverness!

Elijah looked utterly bewildered.

"Would being your girlfriend mean I wouldn't have anything to eat?" Daisy looked at Elijah's puzzled expression, feeling a bit confused herself.

"Naturally, there would be something to eat..." After all, he had another one at home!

"Then you're not willing?"

Daisy found it odd, unconsciously puffing out her chest and muttering to herself,

"Strange, I'm so pretty, with such a good figure, lots of guys like me... And Elijah, weren't you just staring at my chest a moment ago... Abigail even said you liked me, wanted to pursue me? Is she lying to me?"

With things having gone this far, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Of course, I'm willing! But why would you think being with me means you'll have something to eat? Being my girlfriend isn't a free meal ticket..."

Elijah hinted, but before he could finish, Daisy leaned in and kissed him, leaving crumbs of cookies all over his face.

Elijah was left somewhat speechless!

Why did it feel like every move she made was... He sighed inwardly.

He was only about four or five years older than her, but why did it feel like there was a bigger generation gap between them than the gap between her breasts?

Wiping his face clean, Elijah watched Daisy walk away with light steps, feeling the urge to make her taste his cane technique.

Unseen by Elijah, Daisy's lips curled up, revealing a sly smile that quickly disappeared.

"Abigail always says I'm stupid, but I'm actually quite smart!"

She hummed lightly to herself. In her mind, she recalled the previous evening, sneaking out quietly using her abilities while the sky was dark, to see the pile of zombie bodies at the entrance of the building.

At that time, she didn't know it was Elijah's doing, she just thought this person was really impressive. But she had her suspicions.

After all, she knew all twelve residents of this building.

When she saw Elijah breaking in today, efficiently dealing with Abigail and gathering supplies, she immediately understood and had the idea of sucking up to him.

As for being his girlfriend... that was also a brilliant idea that flashed through her mind!

She used to hear Abigail complain that Elijah upstairs seemed to like her. Every time they met, he greeted her and ignored Abigail, making Abigail doubt her own charm!

She had long wanted to try dating. Her family used to be strict, never giving her a chance.

Now that she's finally in college, with her good friend Abigail's support, she still hadn't succeeded in finding a boyfriend after almost a year in college.

Now, it's the end of the world!

There may not be many survivors left.

Daisy didn't dislike Elijah, on the contrary, because he was her neighbor who went up and down the stairs, occasionally bothering him for things, she even had some affection for him.

Elijah was also kind of handsome, and quite capable... Finding a backer wasn't something she could ask for more!

And being a girlfriend just meant kissing, right?

At most, letting him hug her... That's pretty much how most university couples are anyway!

Daisy shook her head, her thoughts swirling.

But soon, she felt a pang of disappointment as she looked at Abigail's lifeless eyes, then turned, her eyes hopeful, to Elijah.

"Elijah, can Abigail still wake up?"

"I don't know, but since both of us can awaken abilities, maybe one day Abigail can too. Who knows for sure?"

Elijah couldn't be certain.

In his past life, he had seen many powerful zombies, some even had a certain level of intelligence.

He had never encountered a zombie retaining memories, but perhaps his experiences were limited?

"Yeah, maybe someone's ability is to awaken memories!"

Daisy suddenly brightened up.

Then she glanced at Abigail's clothes and wrinkled her nose.

One of Abigail's straps had slipped off, exposing almost half of her chest...

"Abigail, you've been completely seen by Elijah?"

Daisy muttered to herself as she helped fix Abigail's clothes.

"It's still early, I'll go check out the other units. If I find food, I'll save some for you!"

Seeing that there was nothing else for her to do here, Elijah prepared to continue searching for zombies.

This morning, the fourth leaf of the zombie grass had grown, and the fifth leaf was emerging.

But to mature, they still needed a corpse core. This was currently their top priority!

"I'll come with you. I know which units have more food stored!" Daisy was eager to try.

"Oh? How do you know?" Elijah didn't object; sooner or later, he would have to train team members.

"Daisy explained as they walked. "

The two households on the ground floor are elderly.

The older generation likes to stock up on food! I used to live here when I was a kid, then moved away.

Now that I'm in college, I live nearby, so I moved back here.

Besides the rented units like Elijah's, I know all the other households.

Even for the rented ones, I often hear the grandma on the ground floor gossiping, so I know quite a bit."

"In that case, let's start from the ground floor, knock on the doors, and see if there are people or zombies inside."

Elijah decided to follow Daisy's plan.

"The ground floor... probably has no one left!"

Daisy paused, then said somewhat sadly,

"I saw the grandma on the ground floor turning into a zombie outside, and the grandpa in the other household has bad legs, he sits in a wheelchair, but he usually has the habit of going out for a walk in the morning..."

Elijah remembered, he had indeed seen the old lady on the ground floor turning into a zombie and chasing after a woman when he was first reborn.

The two quickly arrived on the ground floor and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

Elijah unlocked the door and went inside to take a look around, confirming that it was safe before letting Daisy in.

In the kitchen, Elijah was surprised to find a lot of food.

Not to mention rice, flour, and oil, there were various dried vegetables, cured meats, and many snacks and supplements that were probably bought by the younger generation for the elderly.

Elijah let Daisy handle the supplies and went to the other unit on the ground floor.

There was also no response inside, but there seemed to be some movement of zombies, although it didn't quite sound like it.

When Elijah opened the door and saw the scene inside, his heart couldn't help but chill.

The once tidy living room was now a mess, with dirty bloodstains everywhere.

And not far from the entrance, a wheelchair sat quietly, with a person sitting on it.

No, it couldn't be called a person anymore, not even a zombie, as it was reduced to a half-eaten skeleton.

At the same time, a short figure quietly emerged from the bedroom and slowly approached Elijah.

If Elijah hadn't been alert, he might not have noticed it.

"Zombie dog..."
