After turning into a zombie, I realized that zombies also have self-awareness, but it is tightly suppressed by the "cannibalistic" instinct triggered by the virus.

From a literary perspective, the self-awareness of zombies is more like a god's perspective, watching reality unfold without being able to intervene, only allowing the body to be controlled by animalistic instincts.

But at this moment, I somewhat hate this god's perspective.

Chen Xu kept moving supplies back and forth in front of me, and whenever he got closer, I couldn't help but bare my teeth. I could feel my upper lip twitching repeatedly, especially like... a dog guarding its food.

However, in the face of the delicious taste of Chen Xu's flesh, I couldn't suppress this instinctive behavior.

Speechless, the more I think about it, the more I feel like a dog.

I vented the anger brought by this sense of humiliation on Chen Xu. Every time he approached, I bared my teeth even more ferociously.

It seems more like a hungry dog that hasn't eaten for a long time...

This is not how I imagined being turned into a zombie!

After the release of the movie "Train to Busan," I once discussed with friends what we would do if a real zombie virus outbreak occurred.

What did I say at the time?

Oh, I said, "I would definitely find a zombie to bite me immediately. I'd rather become a monster than live in constant fear and hiding."

Unexpectedly, it became a reality.

One hour before being affected by the zombie virus, I was in Chen Xu's office adjusting the braces on my teeth.

The other people gradually left work and went home, leaving only the two of us in the dental department.

Chen Xu had treated my teeth several times after work, and many nurse sisters in the department suspected that we had a close relationship. They guessed right; we did have a good relationship.

Every single tooth in my mouth had been treated or observed by him.

We were really familiar with each other.

Looking at the occasional envious looks from the nurse sisters, I just wanted to say to them, "Do you want this blessing?"

I chose a handsome guy and healthy teeth.

The reason is simple, dental treatment is really expensive!

It's really expensive!

Perhaps because he was working overtime again, Chen Xu, this cunning dog, tightened the braces without any mercy. I clearly felt the familiar tingling sensation coming back.

The most painful part of tightening the braces is not on the same day but the day after waking up.

I must have a good meal when I go back tonight; otherwise, I won't be able to eat for several days and can only drink porridge and eat wontons.

With the mood of going to have a feast, I walked out of the dental clinic's gate. Just 200 meters away, a girl who seemed to be eleven or twelve years old ran towards me with a stiff gaze and hands stretched out.

I took a few steps back and turned to run back to the clinic, but who could have expected that the girl would run so fast and grab my arm, biting into it.

"Ah!" The pain of her teeth sinking into my flesh made me scream.

The first bite hit my skin and bone directly because there was no flesh on my arm, avoiding the pain of having a chunk of meat bitten off.

Okay, a twenty-two-year-old college student can't outrun a twelve-year-old middle school student. I concede to being bitten the first time. But being bitten a second time is just outrageous.

I firmly resisted the girl's head, not allowing her to bite me again.
