Chapter 220 – Professor, Please Don’t Raise Zombies (10)
The little zombie sat in the chair, her eyes blinking rapidly, extending a hand as if saying, “I’ve already spoken, why aren’t you giving me the crystal core yet?”
“Yan Luo? Luoluo? Are you talking about your own name?” Yan Che stood up, walked over to Yan Luo’s side, raised an eyebrow, and grabbed her hand. “Do you still remember anything from before?”
Yan Luo pulled her hand back, but it didn’t come loose. She pouted, looking utterly confused.
But this time, the confusion was genuine. She could only remember the original owner’s experiences after turning into a zombie. She had no memory of the original owner’s life as a human.
Maybe she only vaguely remembered her name? Yan Che thought as he watched Yan Luo’s reaction. Or maybe, as she evolved, the original memories were gradually returning?
Still holding onto Yan Luo’s hand, Yan Che slowly pulled out a delicate pair of small scissors from beside him, the silver blades reflecting a cold gleam.
Yan Luo instinctively shuddered, eyeing Yan Che warily.
What was he planning to do?
Yan Che looked down at her small hand, not even raising his head, and casually said, “I’m trimming your nails.”
Oh.
…
Wait… what? (°Д°)
Hold on, do zombies really need a manicure?
Without nails, she’d lose a major weapon, right? Not to mention she only has speed abilities.
Yan Che held down Yan Luo, slightly raising an eyebrow, but his attitude was firm. “It’s just nails for now. Once you evolves more, it’ll be different. If it weren’t for my strong body, this little one would have scratched a hole right through me.”
In short : Yes, my zombie needs her nails trimmed.
Yan Luo struggled harder, trying to scratch Yan Che’s clothes and even bite him.
Hmm, a very feisty little girl.
“One Level 4 crystal core,” Yan Che said, holding Yan Luo down while avoiding her attacks. He spoke slowly, a lazy smile on his lips as he precisely targeted Yan Luo’s weakness.
Hm? Yan Luo froze for a moment. A Level 4 crystal core…? Well… it wasn’t a bad deal…
After all, even if she got her nails trimmed, they would grow back whenever she wanted. It was essentially a free Level 4 crystal core. Plan approved. (✧v✧)
Noticing Yan Luo’s change in attitude, Yan Che couldn’t help but pat her on the head. “I’m just trimming them so you can retract them better. Stop leaving holes everywhere. Think about how many of my lab coats you’ve ruined and how much damage you’ve caused.”
How much damage had she caused? It seemed like quite a lot. Yan Luo glanced down at her nails and pouted slightly.
Zombie nails can be retracted, but even when retracted, the sharpest parts remain exposed to prevent surprise attacks.
It wasn’t much of an issue when she was outside, but it caused some trouble with Yan Che.
Alright, for that Level 4 crystal core, she reluctantly agreed to let him trim them.
Seeing that Yan Luo stopped struggling, Yan Che carefully began trimming her nails with the small scissors.
He trimmed off the black edges, smoothing them to prevent discomfort when she retracted them.
After the careful trimming, it was much more comfortable than when they had grown naturally. Yan Luo’s eyes lit up in approval of the trim.
But then, she wasn’t going to let it go so easily.
The nails were trimmed, so where was that Level 4 crystal core?
