It has become a habit to have a zombie disco dance after square dancing.

Every day at 6 pm, the square near my home gradually attracts a crowd of zombies.

They only start dispersing around midnight.

During this time, many zombies from other cities join in.

With the help of Chu Linxuan, the zombies dance the square dance obediently.

But because I need to collect venue fees every time, each zombie has to pay one crystal core per day.

Within a month, I noticed that the number of zombies in City A has decreased significantly.

And the base closest to here occasionally sends troops to scavenge for food.

My leading the zombies in disco dancing caused internal killings to intensify, which is widely known.

The brother and sister I saved before saw my picture on a poster and pointed at me, saying that I was the one who brought them back.

After the base leadership found out about this, they urgently held a meeting.

They suspected that I might still retain human consciousness.

In addition, the number of zombies in City A has recently decreased a lot.

By chance, I saved a commander from the base.

Everything I did was known to them and they posted notices for all surviving humans to know about my deeds.

"The most beautiful zombie!"

"She deserves to be our hero!"

"She was just a little office clerk, but even after becoming a zombie, she still fights for the future of humanity with her own consciousness!"

There were endless discussions about me.

They sent someone to deliver a letter to me, and the letter said, "In history, there have been many heroes, and there will be many more in the future. But at this moment, we want to present you with a medal. You are our hero!"

The award ceremony was very simple, everything is kept simple in this period of time.

Right at the main entrance of the base, a gap was left wide enough for one person to pass through.

Behind the protective fence, there were many crowds who came to see me, staring at me intently.

The base leadership, wearing armor, crossed the crowd and walked onto a modest podium with no one around to present me with the medal.

He solemnly said to me, "Now, you are our hero!"

Everyone shouted in unison, "Hero! You've worked hard!"

I smiled, bowed my head, and said to them, "Thank you, it was not hard. Serving the people!"

After a long time, I caressed the medal, with a smile on my face, and waved goodbye to them, ready to leave.

Suddenly, two childish voices rang outside the crowd:

"Sister! Thank you!"

"Thank you, sister!"

I turned around and saw the brother and sister I had saved jumping up and down trying to catch my attention.

A short distance away from the base, I saw Chu Linxuan standing at the corner.

He didn't want to leave me, but he didn't want to panic the people at the base either.

So he obediently waited for me here.

His gaze remained calm as he looked in my direction.

When our eyes met, his gaze flickered.

A faint smile spread across his face:

"Sister, welcome back."

I felt warmth in my heart and smiled at him:

"Xuanbao! I'm back!"

I don't know how the future will change.

But I am satisfied with my life right now.

Human interests are paramount.

The cloudy sky even shows signs of clearing.

One day,

I was bored, counting the crystals I had earned during this time.

Suddenly, Chu Linxuan's deep and hoarse voice came: "Did you finish watching that disc from before?"

I almost didn't react and was caught off guard, thinking about the disc hidden in the cabinet: "Wait a minute????"

Chu Linxuan said, "I watched it."

I said, "???? Let me process this."

He used the words I previously taught him, "You said, life lies in movement."

I quickly retorted, "I said, healthy movement!"

"You also said, knowledge that is acquired from book learning is superficial, true knowledge comes from practice."

"???? Umm!"

A deserted city, completely silent.

The square outside the house no longer has leading zombie dancers, and the flickering lights continue to flash.

Those zombies dance and disco on their own.

City A is noisy, but only this house is lit with a dim light.

(The End)
