บท 93: Zombie Empress (24)

(Lirean Province- Capitol City)

(Outer Regions- St. Cheng's Highway)

"There is no need for that…" Qin Lan politely spoke as she kept a careful eye on the guns pointed in her direction.

She fidgeted uncomfortably as she felt the warm and fuzzy feeling in her chest suddenly intensify as the words flowed out of her mouth.

"You should not think that I am a threat… I am just a poor defenseless woman trying to escape the city," Qin Lan whispered softly.

"Why would you need to check my van? All that is inside are limited supplies… I barely have enough water or food…"

"Please have mercy and escort me to the other side…"

The soldier who was approaching the van to perform the inspection froze in place as his pupils dilated. 

He turned around and walked back towards his commanding officer.

The middle-aged military officer should have reprimanded him for his insubordination, but Qin Lan's words had insidiously burrowed into his mind.
