Chapter 223: Released Back Into the Wild
The school doctor uncle started using an inhumane training method to get her to learn how to walk in midair.
Ning Shu had no choice but to start learning how to use her jumping ability to the fullest, then start walking in midair without any support. It was such an unscientific phenomenon, yet the uncle, who was a scientist, still insisted on making her practice this.
Then there was the fact that the uncle wasn’t a good teacher. Every time she didn’t do it right, he would start criticizing her from head to toe.
Why couldn’t she freaking leave this world already?
When would these days end? She had to watch as the uncle recorded information in his book every day. It made her feel ill every time.
The school doctor uncle looked at Ning Shu, then shook his head in disappointment. “A zombie that managed to maintain self-awareness really can’t compare to a zombie that regains self-awareness after all.”
Ning Shu: …
In reality, she had sensed it as well. Inside, she still felt herself to be a human that was simply donning the skin of a zombie, so she was completely different from a variant zombie.
Luckily, she could now move very fast and could also walk in midair.
When they got back to the laboratory, the uncle gave Ning Shu a bottle of gene essence. Ning Shu was very moved and gave the uncle a big, sinister smile. The uncle immediately turned away.
Ning Shu drank the gene essence, but she felt like she no longer needed it since she didn’t feel as hungry as before. In addition, she felt like this body had come to a bottleneck. It could probably evolve now, but she didn’t know how to evolve.
This body was already very strong and powerful, and even capable of walking in midair.
Ning Shu tried opening her mouth but she could only make simple syllables. She had no choice but to learn to speak again like a little kid.
The school doctor uncle was eating a biscuit when he turned around to stare at Ning Shu without speaking. After being stared at a while, Ning Shu looked towards him with a puzzled gaze and stammered, “Wha-what is it?”
The school doctor uncle furrowed his brows and seemed confused as he said, “Say, your body is currently being improved by high class genes. Genes naturally tend to reform the deficiencies in the body, so why is your face still like this?”
Ning Shu: Fudge! Was he mocking her for being ugly?
Ning Shu really wanted to push the school doctor uncle down, take a bite out of his neck, then dig out his heart. The uncle’s words were too hurtful.
A poisonous tongue, mysophobia, and OCD to boot. Uncle, there was no one in this universe that could save you. You’re definitely destined to be single forever.
After resting for a night in the laboratory, the school doctor uncle gave Ning Shu a bag. Ning Shu opened it to discover that there were quite a lot of gene essence in little bottles contained inside the bag.
She was a little puzzled. Why was the uncle giving her so much gene essence?
The school doctor uncle didn’t explain. As Ning Shu followed him out of the lab, she felt like the atmosphere was a little off.
She behaved very well and climbed onto the roof without a word, but the school doctor uncle beckoned her and said, “Sit in the car.”
What was with him today? He seemed off. Ning Shu silently got into the car. The school doctor uncle started driving, seemingly aimlessly.
“Un…cle,” called Ning Shu.
The uncle pressed on the brake and turned to look at Ning Shu.
The fudge? If he had something to say, he should just say it. From the start, he looked cold and very ascetic, so when his expression turned grim… Uncle, don’t you know that your twisted pervert level is already at MAX!?
“Get off the car,” said the school doctor uncle to Ning Shu. “Take the bag with you.”
Ning Shu replied ‘oh’ and got off. The school doctor uncle got off as well and walked until he was standing in front of her before saying, “You’re a zombie. You should get used to your new lifestyle.”
Ning Shu blinked in confusion. What did he mean?
“The gene essence in there should be enough to last you for a while, but your body doesn’t need gene essence anymore either. I have something more important that I need to do, so I won’t be bringing you along,” said the school doctor uncle mildly.
Fudge, the uncle was abandoning her ah. Before, she had been constantly tormented by the uncle in all sorts of ways, but her heart couldn’t help but ache now that they were about to part.
The uncle also counted as like a second parent to her, so she reached out and tugged on the uncle’s sleeve as she slowly said, “Uncle, bring me… I fight well.”
The school doctor uncle reached out and poked her forehead. He scoffed, then said, “I’m not willing to bring along such a useless woman. Since we’ll have to part sooner or later, it’d be better for me to say goodbye first.”
Ning Shu: …
The school doctor uncle got back into the car and drove off. In barely a few moments, he had disappeared from sight, leaving Ning Shu to feel desolate by herself.
She felt like an animal that had been released back into the wild.
