My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 1005: Professional Interrogation Techniques

“What a mess…”

Ling Mo sighed softly, “Don’t rush, take your time…”

Yuwen Xuan chimed in, “How about this, I’ll help you sort it out, then I’ll ask questions and you answer, okay?”

As he spoke, he slowly walked over and crouched down, meeting Yu Shiran’s gaze.

At this moment, Yuwen Xuan seemed quite serious. Not only had his tone lowered significantly, but his eyes also appeared gentle… In general, he suddenly transformed from a madman into a madman with a touch of friendliness…

Seeing Ling Mo staring at him in surprise, Yuwen Xuan subtly raised an eyebrow and then tugged at his collar, “Ahem… Actually, I used to be a Senior Executive…”

“I know,” Ling Mo nodded.

“So leave this little matter to me,” Yuwen Xuan said. “I have plenty of experience dealing with young girls.”

“What kind of Senior Executive are you… a Loli-con club member? You’re casually exposing your preferences here…” Ling Mo couldn’t help but comment.

“Do you want my help or not!”

“By the way, are you aware that you’re shirtless? There’s no tie for you to tug…” Xu Shuhan added quietly. To be so serious while doing something so embarrassing, one has to admit, he’s quite a character… She felt a bit embarrassed for him.

“Hey! What are you talking about! I just…”

At this moment, Ling Mo glanced at Yu Shiran and then scoffed in disappointment, “Didn’t even manage to amuse her…”

Yuwen Xuan suddenly realized, “Pretty clever… But you’re casually using people as props!”

“Unfortunately, you didn’t show any value,” Ling Mo replied.

“…”

No rebuttal…

Yuwen Xuan took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile from his silt-covered face, and asked Yu Shiran, who was silently twisting her fingers, “How about now? Does this make you feel a bit more at ease?”

“Mm…” Yu Shiran thought for a moment and nodded lightly.

“Alright. Then I’ll begin.” Yuwen Xuan cleared his throat again and said, “Little sister, in what you just said, there are actually several key points. First, a companion named Black Silk is missing. Second, when you mentioned ‘alone,’ you weren’t referring to the first point… In fact, the first point should have occurred during the incident you mentioned happening ‘on the way.’ Third, you’ve been searching here for a while. Then you met us here. Little sister, am I correct?”

“Ah… yes.” Yu Shiran nodded again.

Ling Mo gradually calmed down… He suddenly understood Yuwen Xuan’s intention. This madman had already noticed that Ling Mo was a bit too concerned to think straight earlier… Normally, Ling Mo would be the one analyzing this situation, but this time he missed it. He told the little loli not to worry, yet he himself was already burning with anxiety inside…

On the other hand, Yu Shiran had a special sense of reliance on him. Whenever she spoke to him, this little loli couldn’t help but feel like “crying”… But when facing Yuwen Xuan, she wouldn’t vent her grievances.

“So, let’s continue. I guess all these events happened within three minutes, right?” Yuwen Xuan asked again.

Yu Shiran nodded once more.

“How did you figure that out?” Xu Shuhan couldn’t help but ask.

“The shoes,” Ling Mo replied.

Yuwen Xuan nodded, pointing at the little loli’s leather shoes: “There’s very little silt on the soles. The silt here is quite sticky. Our soles are covered with a thick layer. So, you can judge how long someone has been here from the silt.” After he finished speaking, he suddenly asked, “So, what do you mean by ‘a person’? Are you saying that before Black Silk disappeared, there was someone else with you?” ℞âŊ𝙤𝐁Е𝒮

Someone else?

Ling Mo’s heart skipped a beat… He suddenly thought of the sound they heard initially. Could it be that the sound occurred when Yu Shiran entered here? If so, the entrance must be around this area?

“There was a…” The word “human” almost slipped out, but the little loli swallowed it back.

However, Ling Mo instantly realized… She was talking about those survivors!

Could it be the one Yu Shiran was tracking before? How did the person bring her down here? Now that Yu Shiran is here, where is the person who brought her down?

A series of questions instantly plunged Ling Mo into deep thought, while Yuwen Xuan continued, “So, you were brought down by someone? But after coming down, you got separated, right? How did you get separated?”

“Well… it was really dark here. Then she suddenly screamed, saying she twisted her ankle, so I had to leave her behind…” Yu Shiran seemed unclear about the process, speaking rather vaguely, “I hadn’t walked far inside when she screamed again, so I quickly turned back to chase her.”

A scream!

The three of them were shocked simultaneously, then exchanged glances.

That’s what they heard…

No wonder the footsteps approached them and then retreated…

Who would have thought that they were on high alert, only to find out it was this little loli?

Upon hearing this, Ling Mo was almost certain.

That person did it on purpose…

But the question is, why did the person do this? What was the purpose? If the intention was merely to deceive Yu Shiran into coming down and then kill them all, there were plenty of ways to lure the monsters here, right? Yet this person guided them to meet… It seems the crying was also intentional, as Xu Shuhan pointed out, it wasn’t a coincidence, but a deliberate act by the person.

The real fear isn’t the conspiracy itself, but the fact that we don’t even know the opponent’s intentions… However, upon reflection, there’s a glaring flaw in their plan, which happens to be the major headache Ling Mo is facing.

The disappearance of Black Silk…

That dog-girl wouldn’t leave the symbiote without reason; it must still be here…

“When did Black Silk disappear?” Yuwen Xuan steered the conversation towards the crucial point. With the earlier analysis and questioning, Yu Shiran had calmed down considerably. Though she trembled slightly at the question, she didn’t shy away.

She gently kicked the ground with her toe, biting her lip as she whispered, “It was… when I entered here. That person kept crying, but I couldn’t catch up. Suddenly, Black Silk was gone. When I realized she was missing, I quickly turned around, but couldn’t find Black Silk and ended up meeting you… sob…”

The little loli was on the verge of tears again.

“Who is she?” Yuwen Xuan asked.

“I know,” Ling Mo suddenly lifted his head.
