I am Tu Xun, a half-human, half-corpse existence in the apocalypse.
The left hand holds human temperature, and the right hand grows the sharp claws of a corpse.
My three-year-old daughter lay on my back and asked in a milky voice: "Mom, shall we go find daddy?"
I smiled bitterly and shook my head. The father she mentioned disappeared long before we transformed into corpses.
Until that day, I bumped into Yun Yeye in an abandoned supermarket, pointing a gun at us.
"Don't hurt my mother!" My daughter suddenly broke away and opened her little hands to block me.
The muzzle of the gun dropped tremblingly, and a familiar tenderness flashed in his eyes.
"Tupu?" He called me by my maiden name in a hoarse voice, "Do you still recognize me?"
In my chaotic memory, the image of him proposing to me five years ago emerged.
But now, my sharp claws are touching his neck, and his pale face is reflected in the corpse's right eye.
"Go," I struggled to speak human language, "or... I will bite you."
Reader comments
What can I say? I really like zombie-themed novels, but I haven't seen much of the scene at the beginning of this one, so I continued reading it and stayed up all night. It was quite exciting and interesting at first, with dangers and conflicts with my husband. The heroine is very wary and doesn't believe anyone. From the plot, I can't guess what will happen next. The atmosphere feels like the despair of human beings about to become extinct. This feeling is quite good. Although there is the kind of right-hand man next to the husband who has not seen him for a long time who is very speechless and annoying, the beautiful, powerful and popular heroine's posture is used to explain the scene of the heroine's communication, and the heroine's husband is unclear every day and does not open his mouth, making people wonder if he is early. The only thing left is guilt and responsibility for having an affair with someone else and not loving the heroine (emmm, it will be okay if these two problems are solved later), as well as a lot of incomprehensible descriptions of "eyes", but the tension of running for one's life can still be watched.
But there was something a little bit later, I don't know why, I kept accepting people. Wow, I accepted 10,086 children with special abilities. They all called the heroine mom. I was shocked. Is this okay? Then I obviously started to get confused. After naming each experimental child, I started to surround the child with various things, such as x x laughed, xx laughed... N people laughed, and their names were all very similar, so... Anyway, the tension and excitement of a very good beginning here is gone. I will just read it here for the time being. I registered for this book... I have read so many books before and I didn't register... Don't delete my book review on Tomato🙏
I stayed up late to read the previous one and found this very special article. I clocked in at 7:17 on March 23, 2026 and recorded it. I was the first one [laughing]
