XG 5 - Ding! Super mother has joined your team!

Wong Xue Guo’s heart pounded even harder than before after realizing that right now was not the time to think about how fast her mother had arrived. Unless one of the monsters had the ability to imitate her mother's voice, that was very likely to be her mother!

Legs scrambled to the floor, she strained her ears to listen if there were other people with her mother. But she could not hear any other footsteps other than her mother's distinctive high heels that she had long familiarized with.

Wong Xue Guo: '…' Mother’s habit of always wearing high heels will get her into trouble!

Unfortunately, she was not an expert in distinguishing sounds and had no idea what that zombie was doing after hearing her mother calling for her.

Wong Xue Guo: I also don't dare to answer back, ah! (×﹏×)

Unfortunately, the door was designed to only have a small gap at the bottom, with the top reaching the height of the ceiling. The only way for her to have an inkling of what was going on outside was to stick her face onto the floor and peek out of it.

… Even if it was an emergency, she still felt repulsed from getting bacteria stuck onto her face.

"Guo Guo, stay inside,” Suzie Yap’s words ended her internal debate.

Wong Xue Guo could only hear her mother’s footsteps as she moved deeper into the washroom, seemingly alone without her bodyguards. Before she could even say anything in reply, the zombie roared like an overexcited puppy and charged over with bared teeth, the remains of flesh that it had been chewing was stuck between its teeth.

Despite her mother telling her to stay hidden, Wong Xue Guo could not just stay silent and hide away while her mother was in danger.

Adjusting her sling bag to her back of her hip to avoid hindering her, she tightened her grip onto her umbrella and took a deep breath that was useless in calming her stretching tight nerves. This feeling was truly similar, but amplified a thousand times, to the moment she was about to reveal her failed exam scores to her parents.

Sliding the lock to the green area, she gathered her courage before rushed out while gripping her umbrella in an amateur posture. Her act of bravery nearly had her slipped over the blood that had flooded half of the floor.

As her eyes took in the scene, her body unconsciously jerked to a stop as she wondered if she was actually trapped in a very vivid hallucination created by stress and despair.

A woman with wine red, fashionable curls dressed in yellow, flowery dress looked like her mother, Suzie Yap. But she was holding onto two kitchen knives in each hand, coated with blood that was still dripping from it. Even her dress was not spared from being stained by blood and unmentionable liquid.

Her mother looked even more terrifying than the female zombie that was hacked into pieces. It was not the worst sight Wong Xue Guo had watched before with how realistic the movies were in the 20th century, but knowing this was real and with her eyes capturing every single detail as the best lens in the world, the urge to hurl out her dinner became insanely strong.

Suzie Yap's gaze reminded Wong Xue Guo of someone homicidal, avenging her important person with the butchered zombie as the offender. Poor offended could not escape to the afterlife even with her body chopped into neat pieces. But the part with chest and head intact struggled to crawl to her mother, hunger for flesh.

This might be the worst bad end Wong Xue Guo had seen for a zombie, other than being treated as bowling pins to a bored group of survivors as entertainment.

"... Mother?" Wong Xue Guo could not help but speak up to stop this horrifying scene.

Her parents love cleanliness the most in their family, which overworked the cleaners. It was not the scent of perfume or flowers that lingered in their house, but of disinfection.

Yet her mother does not look out of place in this bloody scenery, without a hint of repulsion as blood continues to splash onto her.

Wong Xue Guo's hesitant voice drifted to the ears of the ferocious woman like a small tweety bird asking for attention. The woman with the same appearance as her mother stopped her merciless act, before awarding the zombie with true death by giving it a fierce stab onto its heart. The blade passed through its chest and poked out from the back as easy as if it was actually a block of tofu.

Wong Xue Guo: '…' Is this savage person really my mother?! (」°ロ°)」

Suzie Yap raised her head and the cruelty in her eyes slipped away before meeting her daughter's shaking pupils. If the face mask had not covered half of her face, it would reveal her daughter's overly pale face and trembling lips.

"Guo Guo… you are safe." Her mother was smiling so brightly, very similar to the expression she had whenever her husband returned home.

Her gaze was full of longing and affection as if the mother and daughter had not seen each other for more than ten years. The feeling weirded Wong Xue Guo out as it was only twelve hours at most that they had not seen each other.

When her mother continues to stare at her, but this time below her neck, Wong Xue Guo suddenly remembered she was wearing her secretly purchased outfit that her mother never approved of.

She forced herself not to fidget, but she could not stop her body from turning rigid as she felt the clothes become heavy. She started to regret being forgetful with her attire after knowing her mother will be coming to pick her up and should have a buy a dress to change to. “Sorry, I thought I would not look out of place with my friends if I wore these.”

Suzie Yap blinked and broke out of whatever she was thinking when she saw her daughter’s outfit. “No, you did well. Your current outfit certainly fits better in this situation than your dresses.”

When Suzie Yap had searched for her daughter that day in the first life, she had taken a long time before finally recognized her own daughter that was not wearing a dress as she had expected. Her zombie daughter was wearing the exact attire as she was now, minus the tears and blood.

It nearly broke her mind when she had to end her daughter's life, freeing her from roaming around the place searching for human flesh.

Wong Xue Guo stared at her mother’s dress-stained blood silently and just accepted she had gotten away from trouble this time. As someone in the lowest hierarchy in the family, her dress code was entirely controlled by her fashionable mother. Her wardrobe was all dresses suitable for a sophisticated and trendy young lady ready to attend a tea party.

Suzie Yap pulled out her knife from the dead zombie's chest and wiped the blade clean with the zombie's clothes. "It's very good that Guo Guo is safe. Baby is obedient for listening to mommy."

Her mother's tone was so sweet that her teeth hurt, but her mother's bloody appearance belonged to the thriller genre. Combining those two gave Wong Xue Guo fierce goosebumps.

"Father told me to listen to you."

Usually, her sentence would please her mother very much. But right at this moment, her scowl was really real and super fierce, not at all like the sweet wife that adored her husband to Heaven.

F*ck. What could have made her mother change 180 degrees with her attitude in just half a day? Wong Xue Guo really wanted to read spoilers!

"Your father is useless," Suzie Yap heartlessly scolded her husband. "He will be fetching us from Penang Island with his helicopter, so we will need to travel there."

Hearing that, Wong Xue Guo's suspicion lessened. A monster would never make that detailed plan to trick its prey. This might be really her mother… her leveled-up mother.

Ding! Super mother has joined your team! ☆ ～(^▽^人)

"Mother, where are your bodyguards?" Were they all dead?

"Those bodyguards are also useless shits." Suzie Yap scolded like an unsatisfied lady boss. "They shoot at the wrong place, wasting all the bullets. Do they only have muscular bodies but a pig’s brain? Coming up with me will be a waste of time, so I have them guard our car and wait for us."

Woah. (⊙_⊙)

Her mother had never scolded anyone in such a crass manner in front of her before but in a short span of time, she scolded two parties brazenly right in front of her without much filter. Did her mother think that the world was ending and finally no longer needed to uphold the mother of the year image?

Wong Xue Guo smiled freely without worry as her expression was hidden under her mask. She liked this mother that gave her a sense of closeness.

What was the use of stretching herself thin in guessing whether this woman was her mother or not? She had shown she could handle the zombie easily and will protect her as a 'mother'.

The thought of her mother might be a time traveler or had transmigrated like those web novels she had read did enter her mind. Recalling the tearful phone call that warned her to hide and the genuine maternal concern from her gaze, it was more likely to be a time travel accident?

Strangers could never show that deep maternal emotion unless they were bloody good actors.

Anyway, the strongest mother detector was her father. Until then, she will play house with this woman, who gave her the opportunity to experience the motherly love that she had craved when she was younger.

With the conflict untangled in her heart, Wong Xue Guo was much more relaxed.

As she was facing her mother, she was the first to notice something was moving inside the third cubicle.

"Mother!" Wong Xue Guo's body had instinctively moved, her desire to protect her mother surged like a tidal wave.

One, or maybe both of the calendar friends had changed into a zombie!

Even before Wong Xue Guo could reach half of the distance, her mother had already made her move to deal with the danger.

With an expression as calm as dealing with an annoying mosquito, Suzie Yap stabbed into the zombie's head, holding it a distance before stabbing another knife into its chest. The two stabs immediately stopped the zombie and it no longer moved, much less a twitch.

One had to wonder how strong Suzie Yap was to be able to stab a person, where bones could not even slow her down. It was also something to ponder on how many times she had done this to be familiar with the stabbing move.

Wong Xue Guo: '...' Had she accidentally discovered her mother's hidden profession…?

It strangely makes more sense, since her father was more of a type that would not fall in love with a simple woman.
