Quick Transmigration: Playing the Role of a Devoted Tool

Feng Yufan lay on his mat with mixed feelings, unable to sleep well until dawn.

Early in the morning, he got up after hearing the noise and questioned Ye Xingye in front of everyone.

"Why did you handcuff Qi Ran?"

Dai Wen and Li Jia then noticed that Qi Ran's feet were handcuffed, and Ye Xingye only just untied them for him.

Li Jia also looked suspicious. "Captain, what are you doing...?"

He didn't want to comment, but having Qi Ran handcuffed even while sleeping was too restrictive of her freedom.

Even though Qi Ran has become a zombie, she is still a person with thoughts.

They simply don't understand.

The one who didn't understand the most was Feng Yufan.

Ye Xingye didn't explain anything and removed the shackles.

Feng Yufan pulled Qi Ran outside to talk.

Did he bully you?

"No." Qi Ran shook her head, thanking him for his concern. "Don't worry, Hoshino won't hurt me."

"But he even handcuffs you to sleep!"

"I don't know what's wrong with Hoshino, but I can tell he doesn't mean any harm," Qi Ran answered truthfully.

He only had a vague understanding of how the plot had turned out this way.

The system said that the protagonist's corruption value was too high, and told him not to do anything too extreme to provoke him. Qi Ran was now more obedient to Ye Xingye than before, for fear that he would continue to become corrupted.

The group continued on their way, but the atmosphere in the car wasn't very good.

This time, Ye Xingye was driving, Feng Yufan was protecting Qi Ran in the back, and Li Jia was sitting in the passenger seat.

Devon was with them in the back.

Their car was modified; it was spacious and not cramped at all.

Devon is quiet and doesn't talk much; he's someone with a very low profile in the team.

He rarely talks to anyone unless there's something going on.

But today he actually chatted with Qi Ran.

Even Qi Ran was surprised.

For the next few days, they fought off zombies on the road and traveled through the night. Their days were relatively comfortable, and they did not encounter any high-level zombies.

While passing through a city, the group ran out of gas in their car. Li Jia stopped at a nearby gas station, and he and Ye Xingye filled up the tank.

The refueling process takes a long time; they have to find the underground oil storage tanks at the gas station and use a manual pump to extract the oil.

After Ye Xingye and the others got out of the car, he took out shackles. Qi Ran understood his meaning, so he didn't get out of the car and voluntarily extended his ankle.

Ye Xingye was also heartbroken by Qi Ran's obedience, but he was helpless. He was afraid of losing Qi Ran, too afraid.

He cannot allow any accidents to happen; he must keep all dangers within safe limits.

After copying, Ye Xingye hugged Qi Ran and kissed her, apologizing, "Wait for me in the car, it'll be done soon."

"Okay." Qi Ran nodded and sat in the car to wait for them.

Feng Yufan and Li Jia were both stunned.

When they finally found the location of the gas station's oil storage tanks, Feng Yufan couldn't help but start scolding them.

"What exactly do you take Qi Ran for? He's a person, not your personal possession. Is that all the love you have for him?"

"My affairs are none of your business." Ye Xingye glanced at him coldly.

Seeing that Feng Yufan was about to say something, Li Jia quickly pulled him back.

"Stop talking, just help me open the cover."

If Li Jia wasn't mistaken, Ye Xingye's eyes were filled with murderous intent at that moment.

He truly intended to kill Feng Yufan.

Li Jia felt a lingering fear.

Ye Xingye has changed; he is now completely different from the Ye Xingye they used to know.

At first, things were fine. Ye Xingye was in a bad mood and wouldn't look at his teammates with that kind of gaze. But ever since Qi Ran found him, his gaze towards everyone has become sharp.

Feng Yufan didn't even realize the crux of the matter and even got into an argument with Ye Xingye.

After the group filled up the car with gas and continued on their way, Devon did not participate in any conversation.

When night fell, they found a nice hotel to stay in. They all took a shower and, surprisingly, did not squeeze together but slept separately.

Qi Ran and Ye Xingye shared a room. When Qi Ran saw Ye Xingye come out of the bathroom, he thought the other wanted it and took the initiative to kiss him. However, Ye Xingye handcuffed his ankles and locked him in the room.

"Hoshino, where have you been? It's so late!"

"Don't worry, I'm going to talk to Devon. I didn't go out." Ye Xingye said affectionately, patting the top of his head with gentle eyes.

Qi Ran watched him leave, puzzled.

"System, don't you think something's off about the protagonist?"

I can see that now.

"What's wrong with him?"

[Would you like to eavesdrop on the conversation next door, host?]

"it is good."

Five points.

"Um."

The system activated the listening function for Qi Ran, and he heard Ye Xingye and Dai Wen's conversation.

"You're not human, are you? Even though you're a good actor."

Qi Ran was shocked; it turned out that Ye Xingye had already discovered Dai Wen's disguise.

After a few seconds of silence, Devon's voice came through.

"I'm curious, how did you discover that?"

"It's simple. How did a guy like you, who never uses cosmetics, recognize the colored contact lens packaging at a glance?"

Devon fell silent; he had indeed overlooked the issue.

Ye Xingye continued, "The day we were looking for colored contact lenses, you were the one most familiar with their packaging, which means you also need to use them and have even researched them."

"If not, then you loved makeup before you became a zombie. But I know you, Devon. You have no memories of when you were alive. You don't know what kind of person you were when you were alive, but I do."

"You are a top student in your senior year of college, from a good family, mixed race, and handsome, but you don't like men who wear makeup, you don't like makeup, and you are even less likely to know anything about beauty products."

Ye Xingye's words revealed memories that Dai Wen was unfamiliar with.

"I used to pursue you, but you rejected me. From the day you approached me, I noticed something was wrong. You didn't even recognize me! Haha, that's ridiculous."

Devon remained silent, a murderous glint in his eyes.

"Then what do you want to do, kill me?"

"I might not be able to beat you." Ye Xingye didn't intend to fight. He came to the other party to ask for a favor. "I need you to do me a favor, and I will also help you cover for the humans."

"What do you want?" Devon asked.

Clearly, he accepted the deal.

"I found a gray bruise on Qi Ran's back. What is that?"

"A sign of decay."

"What do you mean?" Ye Xingye frowned.

"He's a zombie. If he doesn't eat living people, he'll rot and become one of those zombies outside. That's the natural law of zombies. If he wants to become stronger or delay rotting, he has to eat people at least every month."

"Will you die if you don't eat?"

"Yes, it will slowly rot until it becomes a completely unrecognizable zombie."

Ye Xingye returned to his room with a heavy heart, holding Qi Ran tightly for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.

After pulling Qi Ran into bed, he pried open Qi Ran's mouth and, seeing that Qi Ran didn't have zombie fangs, a ridiculous idea popped into his head.

It's alright, he thought.

He can find food to feed Qi Ran.

He wouldn't let Qi Ran die, nor would he let Qi Ran become a disfigured zombie.

"Ranran, don't you like raw meat?"

"I like it." Qi Ran didn't dislike it; she was just suppressing her true nature.

"Then I'll find you some meat to eat, okay?" Ye Xingye said excitedly.

"No, Xingye, I don't eat people." Qi Ran shook her head, turned her back to Ye Xingye, and stopped talking.

Even if the system asked him to be more obedient to Ye Xingye, Qi Ran would agree, but he could not accept the idea of ​​eating people.
