Horror game, but harem plan

"Can't sleep?"

"Whoa!"

The sudden sound scared Hong Xia so much that she almost jumped up.

With her current jumping ability, she might be able to crash headfirst into the dim chandelier in Yang Ming's room.

"Ok?"

Yang Ming opened his eyes dazedly.

He couldn't sleep peacefully here like he did in his real home. Any slight movement would wake him up.

"Um... Mr. Yang Ming... I... I'm scared and can't sleep. I... I'll just sleep on the floor here, okay? I won't disturb you!"

"Why didn't you say so earlier? Come on, sleep on the bed."

Yang Ming got out of bed in a daze and approached the shy Ichichi Hongxia.

"How can you let a girl sleep on the floor..."

The words he spoke were all hazy, as if he had not yet woken up. Yang Ming crawled into the sleeping bag that Hong Xia had spread on the ground and closed his eyes.

He was really tired and sleepy.

"Ah...this is my sleeping bag."

Her voice was very low, for fear of disturbing Yang Ming who looked very tired.

But the girl's shame made her emotions uncontrollably intense. Ijichi Hongxia finally reacted, and the blush on her face became even redder. This, this, this... this is even more... than an indirect kiss when drinking water from the same cup!

This is indirect...sleeping in the same bed!

Hong Xia knelt beside the bed, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the zipper of her sleeping bag. The lingering warmth from the fabric seeped through into her palm like a dying charcoal fire. She stole a glance at the young man curled up on the ground.

She didn't know what Yang Ming was thinking when he fought the zombies, nor did she know why he took care of her.

The zipper of the sleeping bag poked at her palm, and Hong Xia was shocked to realize that she had been stroking it for a full seven minutes. Yang Ming was curled up on the concrete floor two steps away. She stared at his shoulder blades that rose and fell with his breathing, and suddenly realized that this was the first time she saw him with his eyes closed.

The remaining warmth of the fabric spread from her fingertips to her ears, and a thin layer of sweat seeped out from the inside of her tightly closed knees.

The crisp rolling sound in the darkness made Yang Ming's eyelashes tremble. Hong Xia held her breath and watched him unconsciously bury his cheek deeper into his arms. His always tense jawline now revealed a bit of childishness. This discovery made her throat tighten, and she quickly turned her eyes away and stared at her red knees.

——The bruise from kicking the airdrop box... has it healed to this extent?

The smell of rotting grass drifted in from outside the window, and she hugged her knees and curled herself into a smaller ball.

I don’t feel disgusted by the dilapidated environment around me. It’s good enough to have a place to rest in peace here.

Although Hong Xia was no longer frightened, she was also completely sleepless. Counting his breaths, she quietly lowered the sleeping bag to the floor. The worn nylon scraped across the dust, stopping three centimeters from the toe of his blood-stained boots. This distance was just enough to clearly see his features.

Feeling safe, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

In the thickest darkness before the first light of dawn, Yang Ming gently opened his eyes. In her dream, Hong Xia unconsciously rubbed her cheek against the whitened part of his sleeve, and his arm was now properly catching the mumbling that escaped from the corner of the girl's lips.

"Sister...don't sleep with your teddy bear..."

——I seemed to have heard something extraordinary.

So, what’s the situation now?

The blonde girl, Ijichi Hongka, a dreamy beauty, with a delicate and flawless face, was leaning against his arms.

Looking closely, I saw that half of her sleeping bag was still on her body, and both of their sleeping bags were on the floor, and for some reason they were stuck together.

Her upper body stretched out from the sleeping bag, her hands tightly hugging her arms. She was rubbing her arms gently, her closed eyes curved as if she was smiling.

——Oh my God, I can see such a beautiful picture the moment I wake up in the morning.

Yang Ming immediately engraved this painting into his DNA.

Then he began to wonder why things turned out like this...

First of all, rule out the possibility that he did something inappropriate to Ichichi Hongxia while sleepwalking at night.

Because his sleeping position did not change at all, he did not have the habit of sleepwalking.

Then, there must be a problem with Miss Ijichi.

What on earth happened to cause this situation?

The famous detective Yang Ming was thinking hard.

At the same time, he tried his best to maintain his posture and try not to change at all. At this distance... he could even smell the fragrance on Hong Xia's body and feel the slight stiffness on his arm.

It's a bra.

It stood up, probably more vigorously than any other morning, and a clear bulge appeared on the sleeping bag.

That’s right, Yang Ming is a very healthy and normal man. He has never had a girlfriend and has never had any intimate contact with any opposite sex. It would be strange if he didn’t have this kind of reaction.

"Well···"

The creature holding his arm suddenly squirmed. Hong Xia's eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a swallowtail butterfly, stirring up tiny air currents in the morning light. Yang Ming was horrified to discover that his Adam's apple was sliding up and down as she adjusted her sleeping position—even more terrible, the girl's knee had unconsciously pressed against a dangerous area.

Even though her legs are still in the sleeping bag...

"I didn't eat my sister's pudding..."

Hong Xia's mumbling was as sweet as honey, and her warm breath penetrated the cotton sleeves. Yang Ming looked at the dim light in despair, praying that his sanity would fade more slowly than the morning light before Hong Xia discovered this death posture.

——If I continue like this, my sanity will melt away!

"Mr. Yang...Mr. Yang Ming...hmm..."

Hong Xia woke up, and finally the young man regained his sanity. If it had been a few more seconds, he would have been unable to suppress the urge to kiss her.

"Ms. Ijichi, what happened last night?"

"last night···"

“I’m still a little scared…”

Ijichi Hongxia looked at the young man lying on the ground. His steady breathing showed that he had fallen asleep. His sleep quality was truly enviable.

She couldn't find any stability no matter how she lay down. She was really forced to do so. Finally, she found an option that could make her feel completely at ease.

The sleeping bag was spread out on the ground, at the same level as him.

——I see, last night was...

What happened yesterday was not a dream.

The warm daily life in the dream...is fake.

The dazed girl looked down at the young man who was very close to her, and she suddenly realized that she was holding something.

Maybe it was because of nervousness or stiffness, she could clearly feel the strong part of the man's arm, which was completely different from her own arm.

Chapter 15 Apartments and Levels

"Ah...ah! I'm sorry, Mr. Yang Ming! I was so scared yesterday so..."

"It's okay...it's okay."

Yang Ming forced a smile out of his stiff face, and quietly adjusted the position of the gun in his sleeping bag.

His eyes flickered over the dangling crease at the second button of the girl's sailor uniform.

They quickly climbed out of the sleeping bag, and the morning light reflected their red faces.

Fourth day.

Yang Ming counted their remaining supplies, and there were still two bottles of water, a potato, and a piece of burnt meat left.

Eggs are used as emergency food, so put them aside for now. If eaten raw, their properties are too low and there is a risk of diarrhea.

[Eggs]: Eggs can be eaten raw, but they should still be cooked. They are an ingredient in several dishes.

"Mr. Yang Ming, it's a bit foggy today. Should we find a house to explore?"

"Great idea."

Yang Ming nodded in agreement. Although he had cleaned up some of the dirt on the town streets yesterday, his vision was severely impaired and he could hardly see anything beyond a range of ten meters. In this situation, it would be difficult to deal with him if he was attacked from both sides by zombies.

After taking a bite of the burnt meat, Yang Ming's health points lost yesterday had reached 95 [potato +10, half a portion of burnt meat +5]. He chewed the piece of meat in his mouth that was so dry that it made his mouth swell, turned around and stuffed it into Hong Xia's mouth.

Now is not the time to be picky.

"Eat first. We'll find a house later. With your luck, you can get some food."

"Thanks···"

Perhaps it was because they had already experienced sleeping in the same bed last night and were overly intimate in the morning. Although Hong Xia was a little shy at the moment, she did not refuse this indirect kiss.

She looked at the bite marks left by Yang Ming and put in small bites.

Living in an environment where there is never a shortage of food, you have to plan every meal you eat, and at the same time calculate the attribute bonuses and recovery brought by the food in order to maximize the effect and combat power. It is really hard to adapt.

Being too thirsty or too hungry will reduce your combat effectiveness.

Very real, but also very deceptive.

"It's clearly a game, why can't it give me a breathing method to recover health?"

"Hahaha... then with Mr. Yang Ming's fighting ability, he's invincible in this game."

There were only scattered zombies on the road, as if most of them had been cleared out yesterday. These scattered zombies could not pose any threat to Yang Ming now.

Still walking along the same path as yesterday, Yang Ming arrived near the cottage and spotted a house surrounded by fences through the thick fog.

He glanced at the items in his backpack and started making something out of wood that might be useful.

The gaps in the fence made it impossible to observe the situation inside the house clearly.

Yang Ming looked up at the low fence, and in front of Hong Xia's surprised gaze, he casually placed a building block against the fence.

He stepped on the building blocks and could already see what was happening inside the fence.

The fence is surrounded by a fist of barbed wire. It seems that in the early days of the zombie crisis, the people here did resist, but the result was not good.

There was no movement inside except for the wildly growing grass and a corpse that had been eaten to the point that only bones were left. The situation inside the house was unclear.

——So there is such a way to use it.

Hongxia couldn't help but think in her heart.

"I'll lead the way in a moment. You follow me closely and help me watch behind me. If you see a zombie, shoot an arrow immediately. The wooden bow and wooden arrows have very low damage unless you hit the head, but zombies will still be briefly stunned if hit, which can buy time for my support."

"Be careful. I haven't been attacked by zombies yet, and I don't want you to get hurt."

"Ok!"

Ijichi Hongxia nodded seriously.

Yang Ming used a sledgehammer to knock open the rusty wire door. Inside the door was a wooden sign with "HELP" written in blood.

Hong Xia followed him nervously, holding a wooden bow, no more than half a step away. She pinched the stone arrow with her fingers and placed it on the wooden bow, pulling it in a semicircle, ready to aim and attack at any time.

The moment the two-person team entered the room, a message popped up: [Slummtapartments Level 2]

—Level 2…? Was it the danger level? Was it the danger level within the building, or was it a relative level to Hong Xia’s and my own?

Yang Ming is very familiar with these game settings. He likes these survival games, although he plays the most MOBA games.

The core gameplay of this game lies in friends. Now that he has a teammate, Yang Ming is more convinced of this idea.

"Squeak..."

The young man holding a blood-stained sledgehammer quickly rushed in from the main door of the house. His eyes immediately locked on the abnormal human body lying on the floor. The moment he heard his footsteps, he roared and climbed up.

Four.

Before they could stand up, the stone hammer came down rapidly, sending blood and bone fragments flying everywhere.

Hong Xia also reacted very quickly, and the aim of the wooden bow quickly shifted from the one that Yang Ming had dealt with to the one that was about to climb up and was the farthest away from Yang Ming.

"call out!"

“Roar——!!”

Ijichi Hongxia's first attack in her life hit the zombie on the left shoulder, causing it to pause and stare at her with bloodthirsty eyes.

His back was instantly soaked with cold sweat. Yidizhi Hongxia suppressed the fear in his heart. The next arrow was already on the string and was gradually being pulled up to a full moon.

He adjusted the position of the stone hammer in his hand at an extremely fast speed, and with his right hand, he held the handle of the hammer with his backhand, and swung it horizontally with a heavy blow, knocking away the two people who were surrounding him, and one of them even burst into radioactive blood.

——It takes time for the zombies that were knocked away to stand up again.
