Bringing such a group of people back to the residence inevitably led to some commotion.

 

Old Lan and his daughter were still excited about their escape from Niepan, shouting with excitement and refusing to sleep.

 

Ling Mo said sternly, “Whether you sleep or not, we’ll be leaving early in the morning. There won’t be much time to rest on the road. If you can’t keep up, I’ll have Mu Chen tie a rope to you, unless you can convince him to carry you…”

 

“You need to respect the elderly and the young…” Old Lan persuaded.

 

“Stop threatening us like this!” Lan Lan shouted angrily.

 

In the midst of this was Mu Chen’s frustrated murmuring, “Why is it always me?! And can’t you at least ask for my opinion before deciding?”

 

However, Ling Mo’s tone did not sound like he was joking. Lan Lan, realizing that arguing was futile, grudgingly followed Xia Na to the next room.

 

The opposite house had been tidied up a bit, and it was passable for a few hours’ sleep.

 

There were too many people to stay in one apartment…

 

“I’ll stay with Ye Lian and the others,” Ling Mo arranged.

 

“That makes sense, but you should have said so earlier! If I had known it was that kind of ‘sleeping together,’ I would’ve given you the room a long time ago,” Old Lan said, shaking his head.

 

“It’s just normal sleeping…” Ling Mo explained with a twitch of his mouth.

 

“I get it, I get it,” Old Lan winked at him and made a cheering gesture before heading out with his precious koi fish.

 

“Pervert…”

 

Ling Mo was speechless. Who said Old Lan was only a pervert in his research?!

 

Come to think of it, perversion is a disease that goes deep into the bone!

 

If he were normal, how could he have created that kind of thing?

 

Meanwhile, Mu Chen, after retying the sunglasses man, asked Ling Mo somewhat hesitantly, “Captain, when do you plan to help Xu Shuhan…?”

 

“Today,” Ling Mo replied.

 

“I thought so…” Mu Chen nodded.

 

Old Lan and his daughter didn’t notice, but Mu Chen saw that Ling Mo had something he wanted to do.

 

“Although her situation hasn’t reached the worst point yet, the earlier we act, the better the chances of success,” Ling Mo continued.

 

“Then I’ll…” Mu Chen’s expression showed a hint of fatigue, but thinking about Xu Shuhan, he still seemed a bit worried.

 

Ling Mo reached out and patted Mu Chen on the shoulder, saying, “Go to sleep. You know, even if you stay here, I won’t let you see anything.”

 

“Alright…” Mu Chen nodded with a complex look in his eyes, then suddenly asked, “But can you handle going a whole night without sleep? You don’t look too good…”

 

“Don’t worry, I have a special recovery method,” Ling Mo replied with a smile.

 

The concern in Mu Chen’s eyes disappeared instantly, and he couldn’t help but curse internally, “Damn it! You think I don’t know? Every time after a kiss, you act like you’ve taken a stimulant. You truly deserve the title of a kissing maniac… Sooner or later, you’ll end up with sausage lips! This is the curse built up from my thirty years of being single…”

 

“For a moment, it seemed like I saw flames in your eyes…” Ling Mo said, somewhat surprised.

 

“You must have seen wrong…”

 

After Mu Chen left, Ling Mo turned his attention to the sunglasses man in the corner.

 

Seeing Ling Mo walking towards him, the sunglasses man’s face turned a bit panicked, but he still stretched out his neck and kept making “whimper whimper” sounds.

 

Judging by his expression, he probably meant something like “I’m not afraid to die…”

 

Ling Mo dragged him to the bathroom door and kicked him inside.

 

“Whimper whimper!”

 

Ling Mo leaned against the door, looked up at the narrow window on the wall, and said, “Stay here.”

 

“Whimp!”

 

“Don’t bother trying anything. I won’t kill you, but you can’t escape either.”

 

As Ling Mo spoke, the sunglasses man suddenly sensed something unusual. Immediately, he began to shiver uncontrollably.

 

A crystalline, blood-red jellyfish crawled from the back of his head, slowly moving to his forehead and then rooting itself again.

 

The sunglasses man’s eyes rolled back even more, but his body seemed to freeze, occasionally twitching, looking quite uncoordinated.

 

“Rest assured, the master ball won’t kill you. But your psychic power is being entirely used to resist its suction power, making it difficult to control your body, right? This way, you have no choice but to stay put.”

 

Just before closing the door, Ling Mo turned his head and added, “Don’t think you can outlast the master ball; you can’t…”

 

“Click!”

 

As the door clicked shut, a smile appeared on Ling Mo’s face: “The master ball recharges itself…”

 

…

 

Drip… drip…

 

A little past four in the morning, Ling Mo was already sitting on the sofa, with Xu Shuhan and Li Yalin seated across from him.

 

To avoid raising suspicions from Old Lan and his daughter, Xu Shuhan had been hiding in the room since earlier and only came out now.

 

However, looking at Xu Shuhan, Ling Mo showed a hint of surprise.

 

“What happened to you?” After staring at her for a while, Ling Mo couldn’t help but ask.

 

Xu Shuhan almost instinctively tugged at her collar and said, “It’s nothing…”

 

“But your hairstyle has changed.” Ling Mo pointed at her head.

 

Xu Shuhan originally had her hair tied up in a somewhat casual manner, but now it was cut even more casually into a short bob. One side seemed much longer, while the other side just barely exposed her neck.

 

This actually made her look a lot more spirited and perfectly highlighted the poise of this female host.

 

Still, there was a hint of frenzy in her slightly reddened eyes, giving her overall aura a subtle yet distinct change.

 

“Even if she retains her sanity at the end, those eyes probably won’t go back to normal…” Ling Mo thought to himself.

 

“It’s nothing…” Xu Shuhan kept tugging at her collar, her posture also becoming a bit awkward.

 

Ling Mo furrowed his brow and then suddenly turned his gaze aside: “Senior Sister…”

 

“I didn’t eat her!” Senior Sister responded very innocently.

 

“You probably almost did!” Ling Mo slapped his forehead and then smiled apologetically at Xu Shuhan, “Don’t mind it…”

 

“Really, it’s nothing,” Xu Shuhan’s response wasn’t angry but rather a bit awkward.

 

Ling Mo looked at Li Yalin again, who quickly shook her head and said, “I really didn’t do anything, just helped her blend in a bit more.”

 

“Blend in where…”

 

“Down there…”

 

“Hey!”

 

Ling Mo glanced at Xu Shuhan and saw that she was almost burying her face in the sofa. Feeling a bit sympathetic, he said, “Senior Sister picked up bad habits from Xia Na.”

 

“I’m fine…”

 

“It’ll grow back anyway.”

 

“Seriously, it’s nothing!” Xu Shuhan grabbed a coat from the side and tossed it at Ling Mo, “You’re doing this on purpose!”

 

Ling Mo tilted his head to dodge and said calmly, “Just curious… you should control yourself…”

 

“You made me want to bite you!”

 

“Ahem, it’s getting late, and you seem mostly adjusted now, right?” Ling Mo quickly assumed a serious expression while taking a bottle out of his backpack.

 

The glass bottle was filled with thick blood, which, despite slight shaking, showed no sign of coagulating-a characteristic of zombie blood.

 

Xu Shuhan had been about to say something, but her attention was entirely captured by the appearance of the blood.

 

“This…” Her body tensed up involuntarily, and a deep look of desire flashed in her eyes.

 

“So, she’s especially sensitive to Progenitor blood…” Ling Mo thought, watching her reaction.

 

Even with the cap on, she was already reacting. When it really starts, she might completely lose her sanity.

 

If that happens, where would Ling Mo find the right blood to keep her balanced?

 

The so-called “suitable blood” can’t be taken from just any zombie; it needs to have a similar virus concentration to Xu Shuhan’s.

 

Ling Mo had no way of accurately determining such data; only a professional like Old Lan could do that.

 

But without the proper equipment, even Old Lan would find it challenging…

 

“But there is a way, albeit risky, it’s better than dragging this out,” Ling Mo thought resolutely. Turning his head, he said, “Ye Lian, Li Yalin, hold her down. Host Xu, this is for your own good.”

 

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lian and Li Yalin stepped forward, each placing a hand on Xu Shuhan’s shoulders.

 

Xu Shuhan’s eyes still held a hint of frenzy, but she didn’t struggle much, only nodding slightly with some resistance.

 

“I thought at such a crucial moment, her emotions would be wildly unstable, maybe even crying and pleading to give up… But it seems there’s no need to worry about that. A double-edged sword, really…”

 

Ling Mo walked up to Xu Shuhan with the bottle but didn’t hurry to start. Instead, he closed his eyes to center himself for a moment.

 

A minute later, when Ling Mo opened his eyes, they were filled with intense focus.

 

In this highly concentrated state, just one look from Ling Mo caused Xu Shuhan to momentarily regain some clarity.

 

“I…”

 

“Don’t speak, just think about something important to you, and try to control yourself.”

 

“Okay… I will… I will…” Xu Shuhan responded haltingly.

 

As Ling Mo spoke, he decisively unscrewed the bottle’s cap.

 

The moment a small gap appeared, the potent virus scent wafted out.

 

“Ah!”

 

Xu Shuhan’s eyes instantly went fully frenzied, and her body, pinned to the chair, began to struggle violently.

 

She bared her teeth at Ling Mo, looking as if she might leap at him and tear him apart at any moment!
