Chapter 12 - 11 Olive Manor (Part 2)
Lin Wu, wielding a steak knife, knelt on one knee and waited a moment for a girl to stand up from the ditch. That's right, a girl, a very pretty black-haired beauty. She was dressed in a green suit, completely soaked, holding a dagger with both hands, pointing it at Lin Wu and saying, "Don't come any closer, go away," while making a couple of unconvincing gestures.
It's not that Lin Wu stayed on high ground just to look at the girl because she wore a low-cut top; he suspected this girl might not be a player. Lin Wu wasn't entirely sure; since the game began, he had roamed half of North Town without seeing a single NPC.
"Are you all right?" Lin Wu asked.
"Are you human? A live person?" the girl asked excitedly.
Lin Wu nodded, "Yes, I am." That's right, she was an NPC.
"Thank goodness." The weak girl, finally seeing a living person, fainted with excitement right then and there.
What's going on here?
Lin Wu pulled out the game manual and searched, but couldn't find any methods for dealing with fainting. After waiting on the spot for five minutes, the girl kept lying motionless in the ditch—heartbeat and pulse present, but she just wouldn't wake up. Lin Wu looked around, rummaged through his backpack, and took out a piece of rag he had just removed from a zombie, wetting it with water and covering the girl's mouth and nose with it.
A few seconds after being deprived of air, the girl sat up with a splash, removed the rag, and didn't seem to notice anything wrong, maintaining her joyful demeanor seeing Lin Wu, "Thank goodness, thank goodness, I've finally seen someone."
