Zombie Apocalypse: Creation-Chapter 495 Kate’s Story (1)

After the two of them finished dinner, they quickly removed everything off the table before Xiaoyun created a giant blank piece of paper.

A few hours of back-and-forth explanation later...

The two had finally finished making a rough draft, although most of the planning had shifted to Kate talking and Xiaoyun agreeing.

"So you're telling me they aren't actually in the nuclear facility?" Xiaoyun asked in confusion.

"Yep. They actually have a base and a lab next to the nuclear facility... Right about here."

As Kate pointed it onto the paper, she had already drawn a detailed map of a base on the right.

Meanwhile, on the left was just a square box with an unknown interior of the nuclear facility itself.

"So, we're going to put me in a coffin, then have you carry me inside until we reach the director of the base?"

"Yep. At least, that's the plan I have... Do you have any other plans?" Kate asked.

After staring at the map for a bit, Xiaoyun strongly opposed her idea. The concept of rendering himself useless was too risky.

"How about we just use an invisible cloak inside?"

"They have thermal cameras that can detect it. Trust me, there's no other way around it unless you want to brute force it."

As Xiaoyun looked at the map again, there were remote turrets in almost every hallway of the lab.

With hundreds of security guards all around the various doors, it was practically impossible for him to brute-force it.

"You sure your parents are in here? Not in some other bases in the country or outside of the country?"

"I'm sure of it. I had met them a year ago in there. They don't have as much resources compared to before the outbreak.

Also, most of them are scared of going outside. Even those security guards have rejected the scientist's demand to collect samples outside."

"Huh... Fine, I'll go with your plan."

"Great. Then all we have to do is to wait for tomorrow... Let's go to sleep. I'm going to go take a shower first."

As Kate got up from her seat, Xiaoyun quickly got up from his seat as well before following her to the bedroom.

"You don't take a shower. I need you to stay as dirty as possible to stay realistic."

"Fine."

Xiaoyun watched Kate head over to the bathroom as he looked down at his blood-soaked clothes.

It started to smell, and despite his nose having gotten used to it a few minutes earlier, it made him want to puke.

"Xiaoyun, can you just hand me a jug of water? I forgot there's no running water here."

Kate suddenly asked as she peeked her head out around the bathroom door, looking at Xiaoyun, who was just sitting on the bed.

"Sure."

After handing her the jug of water, Xiaoyun went back to bed and created a sleeping bag on the floor.

Looking over at the clock, it was only nine, much earlier than when he usually slept.

But with nothing much to do, he took off his clothes before getting inside the sleeping bag.

With his eyes closed, he couldn't fall asleep as expected. Still, he kept his eyes closed as he relaxed his body.

"Xiaoyun, you asleep?"

The soft voice made him open his eyes again. His mind is a little sleepy as he sits up from the sleeping bag.

"Hm? What's wrong?"

Xiaoyun asked as he looked over to the bed, only to see Kate lying right on the edge of the bed.

"I... I just want to say thank you." Kate shyly whispered.

"Don't worry about it..."

Just as Xiaoyun was about to lie back down on the bed, she suddenly spoke up again.

"Xiaoyun, do you want to know about a story?"

"Um, sure."

---

There was once a little girl raised in the big city of New York. Her mom was from France, and her dad was from Russia.

Her existence was a disappointment to her family, as both sides of the grandparents wanted a boy.

Just a few years later, her brother was born. Everyone's attention in the family was focused on her little brother.

As they grew up together, everything she owned was second-handed, all given by her other cousin, who had grown out of it.

Meanwhile, her brother got everything he ever wanted. He could walk up and ask for a new phone, and they would instantly buy it for him.

Despite all the attention towards her brother, she didn't envy or feel jealous a single bit.

Instead, she loved her brother like everyone else in the family, taking care of him and bringing him out to play in the playground together.

But as they grew older, they started to move apart from each other.

The little girl eventually became an adult, enrolled in a prestigious Ivy League college, the same as her parents.

She was at first interested in mechanical engineering, but her parent eventually swayed her into business.

The only reason was to act as a "guide" for her brother, who will also be enrolling in business.

That's when she realized her life was pointless. She was just an extra insurance in case his brother got into an accident.

Still, she couldn't bring herself to hate her brother, who had only been kind to her, even willing to redirect some of the family's attention towards her.

Just as she was about to graduate, she decided to attend a college party to rebel against her parents' wishes for once.

Right at the party, there was a sophomore whose family was extremely influential to the entire country.

Unfortunately, the sophomore falls in love with the girl, even though they had only seen each other once beforehand.

He soon started chasing after the girl, using various ways to ask her to give him a chance.

But the girl was just not interested. She was just about to graduate and wasn't interested in dating anyone.

However, the ignoring soon backfires.

A group of gang members approached her one day, kidnapping her in broad daylight on the college campus.

When the gang made a phone call to her parents and demanded millions of dollars, they surprisingly handed it over.

Despite the money being handed over, she wasn't freed. Instead, she was sent to the person who had been constantly asking her for a date.

He once again asked for a date, but she refused. Even as he repeated it in a demanding tone, she still refused.

Just as he was about to use force to take what he wanted, an FBI raid suddenly popped through the door.

The girl was saved. But more importantly, her life has changed forever ever since then.

After graduation, she applied for the government application to become an FBI agent, much to her parent's disapproval.

To everyone's surprise, she was accepted. Unfortunately, she was put on backend jobs with mundane tasks.

Just as she thought her life was going to be an uneventful repetition, her colleague noticed a cold kidnapping case.

She decided to dig deeper into it herself, wanting to prove that she could indeed become a big shot in life.

However, she soon realized the cold case wasn't cold because there was no evidence.

Rather, the higher-ups were suppressing it on purpose... That's when she made her biggest mistake.

"This girl is you?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as Kate took a short pause.

"Maybe... Okay, it's me. But you had better not tell anyone about this. I kept this a secret from everyone for a reason."

Xiaoyun nodded, waiting for her to continue.

---

Kate quickly found out the culprit behind the kidnap case and started gathering evidence herself.

As she presented the evidence to her superior, she was met with applause and a promotion away from the desk jobs.

But before she could celebrate, her desk had received a letter the next day.

Inside was a secret demand from a mysterious figure, with photos of her family and even bombs in the house.

She immediately returned home and looked for the picture's location, only to find the exact bomb shown in the picture.

Despite rolling back footage, there was no trace of anyone entering the house, let alone a bomb being sneaked inside.

She called the bomb defused to remove the bomb, reporting the letter and the whole event to her superior.

They reassured her that she was now being protected. However, a week later, she received another letter with the bomb inside her closet.

This time, it demanded that she act as a spy. With no other choice, she decided to accept the demand.

To her surprise, after the acceptance, they barely interact with her at all. She only occasionally got requests to ignore a few minor cases.

Soon, she skyrocketed in career, eventually becoming a team leader and leading an elite team of agents to tackle domestic cases.

However, everything changed when her team was assigned a mission to fly four people to Africa using a redirected flight in Guangzhou.
