Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

After drinking a few sips, Xiaoyun realized something was off.

”How am I feeling a little full from drinking their milk? When did I get used to this?”

It was almost as if the milk from the three wasn’t just regular breast milk. Instead, it had a unique flavor and texture surrounding it.

”I can’t let this go to waste...”

Xiaoyun lifted the entire bottle to drink the rest of the milk in it, leaving not a single drop inside as he let out a small burp.

”This is definitely not normal... there is no world where I get full from just drinking milk.”

As Xiaoyun put the empty bottle back down, he tried to create more of it into the bottle.

Unexpectedly, the milk didn’t appear at all.

”Huh? Is my ability broken?”

Xiaoyun immediately thinks of a water bottle in his hand, and just as he finishes thinking, it appears right in his hand.

”Hm, something special is inside the milk that I can’t recreate.”

After thinking for a while, he still couldn’t come up with any conclusion. However, he suddenly realized that the three babies had been drinking this the whole time way before him.

Suddenly, something clicked in his head.

”Maybe that’s the reason why Yongyi and the other two are developing and maturing so fast...”

As Xiaoyun stared at the empty bottle, his mind became increasingly apparent as the conclusion became evident.

However, just as Xiaoyun was about to pull up his phone to call Leyan, he hesitated for a second.

”Is this a bad thing? Do they need to know it? It will only add to their worries and make them feel even more isolated from others... I should keep it to myself for now.”

Xiaoyun put the phone away as he laid his head back on the pillow.

”No wonder why all three of them love to be with Leyan so much as a kid...”

Xiaoyun mumbled as he began having flashbacks of when he was still working for the company, with the three still babies and Leyan being the stay-at-home mom.

”Xiaoyun, what are you thinking?”

Xiaoyun immediately freaked out by the surprise voices he heard until he realized Tianci had been sitting next to the bedside at some point when he was having the flashback.

”Oh, it’s just some memories,” Xiaoyun replied.

”They must be good memories... Your face looked very happy.” Tianci commented.

”Yeah, they were good memories... But they are only memories.” Xiaoyun looked a little down as he started developing a nostalgic feeling for it.

”Anyway, do you have any good memories in the past?” Xiaoyun asked curiously.

”Not really... The only memory of the past I have is being with my dad. But he was in the military most of the time, so I was sent to be with my grandparents most of the time.” Tianci replied.

”Oh. I’m sorry to hear that.” Xiaoyun suddenly felt a little guilty for asking.

”No, it’s fine. They are only memories, like you said.”

Seeing Tianci a little down, Xiaoyun decided to try to cheer her up a little.

”I’m sure we’ll create better memories that we can think back on... I’m sure of it.”

”I hope so too... Oh snap, I almost forgot, someone sent you a letter earlier.”

Tianci walked over to the drawer nearby and took out the mail to hand it over to Xiaoyun.

As Xiaoyun examined the outside, he noticed Renqin’s name and the word classified right at the top of the mail.

After opening the mail carefully, there was a two letter inside it. Xiaoyun decided to read the one in the front first.

---

”For Mr.Renqin only:

I’m Agent 41. I’m writing this to report that I have been able to infiltrate the secret society in the city. When you see this letter, I’m most likely no longer alive.

The information I had gathered is mostly surface level, as I was not able to go beyond a basic recruit. But they seemed to have caught onto me as I had been interacting with too many outsiders. (To send mail to Mr.Renqin)

The secret society is not just some conspiracy theory. They do, in fact, exist, and the power they control is much bigger than I could ever imagine.

They are a global organization in almost every major country, and if the story is true, they are the ones behind many of the world events before the apocalypse. Unfortunately, I cannot find the name of the organization.

However, I was able to find a local recruiter who had recruited me into their small branch in Guangzhou. They are located on the main street of the city hall down the road.

The structure of this organization is highly secretive. However, I was able to learn that every country branch has a single head that leads multiple smaller branches.

Lastly, I want to mention for some reason, the bases they had set up were not attacked by the zombies at all. They seem to have some technology that can send the zombies away from attacking them.

However, there are still occasional zombie attacks. So, the technology isn’t 100% proof. There are also several labs located in different parts of the city performing some research...

Mr.Renqin, if you are reading this, I want to say thank you for saving my family. I hope this can be my payment for the help.”

---

The letter ended as there was nothing else left on the paper.

”Why does it have to be so complicated? Globalists controlling the world? This sounds more like a fantasy...” Xiaoyun sighed as he put the first one to the side.

The next letter was written by Renqin as Xiaoyun could recognize the handwriting.

---

”Mr.Mayor, if you are reading this, I assume you have read the first letter.

I was to say that I got this letter three weeks ago from a trader who told me someone hired them to deliver this. I had read the content already, and at first, I was hesitant about whether the information was true at all.

I was debating if I should relay this information to you, but I just couldn’t decide. But eventually, the answer was revealed.

I realized the information was true, but it was far too late... I should have warned you about weeks before you faced the assassination attempt. There is no one else to blame except me.

I sincerely apologize for my failure, and this is a letter of resignation. When you see this letter, I’ll be packing up my stuff and returning to be a bus driver. I’m sincerely sorry.

Your former foreign intelligence director, Lin Renqin.”

”Why can’t people accept that there’s nothing wrong with failing once in a job? They always jump to the conclusion that they should quit immediately for what?” Xiaoyun sighed as he finished reading the letter.

”Um... I would step down too if I learned that my mistake almost caused my boss’s death.” Tianci mumbled as she listened to the whole thing from Xiaoyun reading it out loud.

”But I didn’t die. I’m still alive and about to be fully recovered. Besides, even if Renqin told me about this, nothing is going to change at all. I would have still gotten sniped like that.” Xiaoyun argued.

Tianci didn’t reply this time as she sat in silence and only listened to Xiaoyun ramble on for several minutes.

”Tianci, can you hand me my phone?” Xiaoyun asked as he finally calmed back down.

Tianci grabbed the phone and handed it over to Xiaoyun. Then she watched him dial Renqin in his contact list.

”Hello? Who’s this?” An unfamiliar voice asked.

”This is Xiaoyun. Can I talk to Renqin?” Xiaoyun asked back.

”Hey Renqin! The mayor is calling you.” The voice yelled out.

After a short moment, Renqin’s voice finally came out of the phone.

”Mr.Mayor, I assume you got my letter of——”

”You’re returning to your office tomorrow, and I don’t want to hear any excuses. Do you understand me?” Xiaoyun asked.

Renqin hesitated for a second but then answered back.

”Yes, sir,” Renqin replied.

”Good, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Xiaoyun hung up the phone, and he laid back down on the pillow again.

”Xiaoyun sounds so serious when he talks about business... he’s like a completely different person... It’s so cool...” Tianci thought in her head as she watched Xiaoyun talk through the phone.

”No, no, what am I thinking? Stop thinking about this kind of stuff.”

Tianci shook her head a little to clear her mind, but Xiaoyun’s cold face kept popping in her head.

”Tianci, can you wake me up tomorrow morning? I’m sleeping early today.” Xiaoyun asked as he didn’t notice the change in Tianci’s face.

”Of course. I’ll go turn off the light and guard outside.” Tianci nodded in agreement and rushed outside before Xiaoyun could notice.

Xiaoyun started imagining himself with fully heal, and eventually fell asleep after a while.
