My mother's love song

"A part-time job that anyone can do and makes a lot of money"

It was an urban legend that had no credibility at all, as if it were something one told to trick children.

However, Rhodes felt a strange feeling from it that was different from Tatali's.

That is to say, this is not a false rumor, but a rumor mixed with truth.

The scene in front of the station was no different from usual.

The bustling commercial street displaying advertisements and merchandise was now as deserted as a ghost town because of the Tatali evil spirit.

The department store that has become common on the way to school recently caught Rod's eye. It is one of the largest shopping malls in the city.

Rhodes took the elevator to the sixth floor of the mall, then ignored the guardrail with "No Entry" written on it and climbed to the eighth floor in one breath.

The eighth floor was pitch dark.

The lights were turned off, of course, but it was broad daylight and it should be quite bright even without electricity.

However, in reality, it is pitch dark.

All the windows were sealed from the inside with something like iron plates.

The iron plate is firmly fixed with screws and cannot be removed by manpower. Even the air vents in the toilet are sealed with iron plates.

In Rod's opinion, this is not an anti-theft measure for the outside, but a fence to prevent people inside from escaping.

After checking the eighth floor, Rhodes climbed to the top tenth floor in one breath.

As soon as he stepped onto the tenth floor, two bright flashlights shone towards him.

"Ah? Where did you come from? Why did you come to someone else's house without permission?"

The voices came from two young-looking men.

He only had a flashlight in his hand and no other weapons.

"Hey~ Why aren't you talking? Do you realize that you're doing something bad?

What's going on? Are you so scared that you can't speak? Isn't the race so different from ours too big? Hey, Jun. Do you know this young master?"

"No, I don't know him. All right, kid over there, come here for a moment. If you run away, you'll end up in a terrible situation.

Why not just kill him? Legally speaking, illegal intrusion can be killed directly. "

The duo laughed wildly and stood motionless in front of the elevator.

"Hey, why don't you react at all? Aren't you going to run away? Normal people would run away in this situation, right? Jun, isn't this guy a little weird?"

"It's all because you're too ugly. Maybe it's a little too exciting for a pretty guy like me... Well, is that right? Why do you have to play on a restricted floor?"

In the darkness, their eyes glowed a dim red.

"What's going on? Is it the reward time?

Hey, Jun, I remember that we can handle the guys who don’t have reservations as we please! "

"You're so noisy, Ah Chun! Just shut up!

So, what's going on, young master? Are you just curious? "

"Excuse me, I heard that you can get a part-time job here..."

Rod pretended to make a weak and unconfident voice while glancing at Ajun's face.

"...Part-time job? Where did you hear about it?"

"I heard from others that there are very lucrative part-time jobs here."

The men whistled when they heard this.

"Okay, you want a part-time job, right? Then I'll take you there."

"Yo~~! A brave challenger has appeared, please come in!"

The man called Achun pressed the elevator button.

Rhodes walked into the starting elevator, and the duo followed him into the elevator and pressed the B1 button.

"Um...where are we going now?"

After Rod asked this, Ajun replied.

"It's underground, underground. Didn't you see me press the B1 button? I just need to stay there for one night.

When you come back, you will become our guest of honor and will be treated with courtesy."

"Yes, yes, it's a very simple thing, right? Just kill some time there, there's nothing to be afraid of!"

"I see. Thank you for the information."

Rhodes glanced at Ah Chun who was laughing loudly and Ah Jun who was covering his mouth and laughing.

The next moment, the men's bodies twisted and the human body became like postmodern art.

“Uhhhhh? What’s going on? My arms, my thighs, uhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”

The groans of pain echoed in the elevator corridor.

While we are in the basement, it is a good opportunity to test the vitality and physical strength of the low-level Dead Apostles to see to what extent they can withstand deformation.

……

……

……

After reaching the bottom floor of the department store, Rhodes walked through another long corridor.

If the elevator was located on the underground floor, then he went down at least several floors after leaving the elevator.

Finally we came to an open area.

Rhode was greeted by the sound of approaching footsteps.

Countless zombies gathered in this underground square.

Bloodshot eyes. Flayed flesh. Ragged clothes.

The zombies let out roars that were not even choking, and at their feet were humans who had been killed long ago, with corpses piled up into a wall.

A space that shouldn't exist.

There are graveyards everywhere underground like ant nests.

Moving corpses. Humans being eaten alive.

It seems that this place is used by low-level Dead Apostles as a playground to release humans and feed zombies.

"Ah ah ah ah ah……"

Just as Rhodes raised his hand to sweep away the zombies, a voice was heard not far away.

"Ahhhh, this is so disgusting!!!"

Following the woman's scream, Rhodes saw a human figure cornered by zombies.

“Wa ...

Dancing, opening mouth wide, and screaming.

Rod recognized the hysterical woman who was 100% hated by the audience and had a 100% mortality rate in horror movies as his homeroom teacher, Ms. Noyer.

The zombies kept approaching her, with only less than a meter left.

What is that woman...doing?

Rhodes muttered, tearing apart the world that came into his sight.

"!"

Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The zombies shattered and scattered as if they had exploded.

"You're lying! Is it Lord Qian Shen? Why are you here? What happened just now? The zombies exploded, how did they do that!?"

Teacher Noyer was horrified, and Rod stepped forward and grabbed her arm.

"Teacher, let's run! Let's get out of here as soon as possible!"

Rhode forcibly took her hand and led her out of the underground square.

“Ah… They’re chasing us, they’re chasing us…!”

In the near distance, there was the teacher's scream, and in the far distance, there were the footsteps of a monster.

“Haa, haa, ah… run faster! If you’re caught up, you’ll be killed, you’ll be killed…!”

I don't know since when I started to be dragged around by Teacher Noyer.

"Teacher, please don't move! And please don't shout! The noise will attract other zombies!"

Noyer was breathing heavily, his chest heaving violently.

"But it hurts, it hurts, it hurts...! Can you be a little gentler? No, just hold it tighter!

Really, I can't run anymore, I can't run anymore! Save me, save me, save me, save me!"

Teacher Noyer ran and cried, and had fallen into madness.

"Damn it, I want to go home! Call a taxi, taxi~! By the way, remember to buy a pudding from the convenience store~!"

Completely lacking the calmness and maturity that an adult should have, the 25-year-old (falsely reported, actually 27 years old) female teacher acted like a child.

"I know, I know."

Rhode smacked his lips and said, "I'll buy it for you later. Just use this for now."

“Mmmmm…!?”

Rod pulled Teacher Noyer to his side, hugged her with his left hand, and forcefully inserted his fingers into her lips.

If she covered her mouth, she wouldn't be able to breathe while running, so this was the only measure she had to take to prevent her from speaking.

As expected, he was bitten hard.

The finger is tightly clenched by teeth at the first joint.

“It hurts…! Never mind, at least this will calm you down, right?”

Rod held the struggling teacher Noyer in his arms and went into a fork in the road.

"Quiet."

After signaling to Teacher Noyer, he squatted down, held his breath and observed the situation.

After about ten seconds, the footsteps of the zombies chasing after them disappeared.

"........."

Rod turned around and found the teacher licking his fingertips happily.

"stop it now."

He quickly pulled it out of the woman's mouth, who showed a regretful expression.

"Those guys should be gone. It's safe here." Rhodes announced.

The teacher hunched his shoulders nervously: "No, not anymore...? Is it safe... here?"

"…Anyway, it's safe for now. But as long as we stay here, no place is truly safe.

I just arrived, so I don’t know what’s going on here… Oh, by the way, why is the teacher here?”

"Why are you in a place like this?" Before the boy could ask, he was pressed against the wall.

Teacher Noyer opened his eyes wide, leaned closer, and pressed his chest tightly against Rod's.

"I don't want it. Why isn't this place safe? You should make it safe! I'm just here to instruct the students!

If it was you who heard about this weird part-time job that only girls can do, you wouldn't ignore it either, right?

Although I don’t like working overtime, I just happened to see a child from my school being taken away in front of me. How could I not care...!"

"Wait a minute, teacher...! Please calm down, be quiet, be quiet!"

The boy shouted somewhat bewilderedly.
