After the zombie defense engineering class ended, the students in Classes 1 and 3 did not wait for the zombie behavior teacher.
Half an hour had passed until the school bell rang, and everyone’s hand screens beeped at the same time, and a notification with exactly the same content appeared on everyone’s hand screens:
Dear students, I am your zombie behavior teacher Song Zaihu. As you all know, some uneasy things have happened in the college recently. I was temporarily transferred to assist in the investigation, and the classes in the past few days have been temporarily canceled. By the way, I am also the new class teacher of the first class of classmates. Please call me if you need anything. ——Yours Song Zaihu.
Hao Tian looked at this notice and felt a little sad for a moment: "Oh, the zombie behavior study I have been looking forward to for so long has been cancelled."
"Temporarily," Su Yu comforted her: "It seems this is related to what happened at the domestication base. Teacher Song was probably called to study whether the zombies had any abnormal behavior at that time."
"Yes." Hao Tian put the display board into her backpack, but she still didn't look happy.
Su Yu remembered that the first time she met Hao Tian in the dormitory, she was reading a book "Zombie Linguistics". She didn't know why Hao Tian was so interested in zombie behavior.
In fact, Su Yu wanted to tell Hao Tian her true feelings several times. Zombies do not have so many purposeful behaviors. In her only memory, zombies only have appetite-stimulating hunting behaviors. After seeing a brain parasitized by mutated ergot fungus in a zombie biology class, Su Yu became more certain that it might be the fungus's feeding instinct that was reflected in the zombie's body.
From this point of view, zombies are just survival tools for ergot fungi. Can they have their own behavior and language?
Su Yu thought for a while, but still didn't tell Hao Tian this.
The students packed up their things and left the classroom one after another. Su Yu and Hao Tian planned to eat first.
Hao Tian suddenly patted Zhao Dacheng, who was still buried in the zombie defense engineering textbook next to him: "Let's go, I'll treat you to the third floor of the cafeteria today."
"The third floor of the cafeteria?" Su Yu and Zhao Dacheng were surprised. It was a luxurious ordering area, and they didn't know how many C coins it would cost. Not to mention the third floor, they didn't even have the luxury of having a medium-sized self-service area on the second floor of the cafeteria.
Hao Tian picked up her schoolbag and explained to Su Yu: "Do you know what classes will be all day tomorrow?"
"What? Isn't it zombie military science?"
"That's right," Hao Tian smiled crookedly: "If you don't eat some high-quality protein, you won't be able to survive."
Zhao Dacheng picked up his schoolbag with some hesitation: "I'm not going. Tomorrow your Class 1 and Class 5 will have military classes together, so I don't need to supplement protein."
Hao Tian grabbed his schoolbag: "Class 5? Is it Zheng Wang's class? By the way, call him in too."
After saying that, he looked at Su Yu, clasped his hands, and prayed: "Let's go, God of War, classmate, give this little girl a chance to repay your life-saving grace. Everyone go, you must go."
Seeing her appearance, Su Yu and Zhao Dacheng could only smile and respond.
It was the first time for the three of them to go to the third floor of the cafeteria. Only when they actually entered it did they understand what grandeur meant. The high ceiling is twice as high as the first floor, and there is a girl in a red evening dress playing the piano in the center of the hall.
A well-dressed service staff came over and asked, "Hello, would you like to dine in the lobby or in a private room?"
Hao Tian waved her hand: "Let's take a private room."
"Isn't it a bit luxurious?" Su Yu whispered.
"It's a life-saving grace." Hao Tian smiled playfully: "Actually, there are not many C coins, so feel free to eat."
Su Yu and Zhao Dacheng suddenly realized that Hao Tian hung out with them every day, ate free meals on the first floor of the cafeteria every day, and usually had no airs, which made them forget one important thing—— She's a kid from Central City.
The three people were led into the private room by the service staff. The private room was bright and there were dedicated personnel to serve them. Hao Tian ordered four Australian M12 steaks with ease, as well as salad, soup and dessert.
When Zheng Wang hurried over, all the dishes on the table were already served. He panted heavily, sat down on the empty seat, and stared exaggeratedly: "What's wrong? Winning the lottery? The food is so good!"
Hao Tian looked at the empty goblet and suddenly said, "Would you like some red wine?"
"You have to train tomorrow, it's not good," Zhao Dacheng advised.
Hao Tian's eyebrows brought a sweet smile: "What's good? It's your birthday today, so we'll drink a little."
"Birthday?!" The other three jumped up from their stools in shock.
Su Yu asked Hao Tian: "How did you know?"
"His contact profile says it, and I only saw it in class today." Hao Tian pointed to the screen and replied. She snapped her fingers and said to the service staff who came in: "Bring a bottle of red wine, please The one at the bottom of the menu, do you have any candles?”
After saying that, he turned to look at Zhao Dacheng and said with a smile: "I don't have time to order the cake, so I'll make do with this tiramisu."
"No, no need," Zhao Dacheng's handsome face turned red, "I never celebrate my birthday."
But Hao Tian had already taken the candle from the waiter and put it on the tiramisu.
Zheng Wang came to his senses and slapped Zhao Dacheng on the shoulder: "You didn't say such an important thing earlier."
"That's right, I haven't prepared any gifts." Su Yu also said.
Zhao Dacheng closed his eyes and made a wish under everyone's urging. When he opened his eyes again, the flame of the candle was reflecting Hao Tian's face. This girl from Central City actually knew his birthday.
This is really his first birthday. The days in Area C20 should be beyond the imagination of the other three. Those unpalatable meals and the difficult time made him go to Central City and walk to the zombies. After studying the academy, I came across my destined good friend.
"call"
He blew out the candle, and a wisp of green smoke slowly rose into the sky and then dissipated. It seemed that at this moment, the bitter days of the past were slowly dissipating...
Hao Tian opened a bottle of wine, and the four of them drank in a happy atmosphere with their faces slightly red.
Somehow, the people who should come together are getting closer and closer.

The next morning, Zheng Wang was waiting for Su Yu and Hao Tian early downstairs in the dormitory. Today, Class 1 and Class 5 had military classes together. The three of them agreed to meet up in the morning to have breakfast in the cafeteria.
Zheng Wang was wearing a camouflage training uniform today and looked particularly energetic. The only strange thing was that there were a few blood marks on his face for no apparent reason.
Hao Tian was the first to notice it. She leaned over to take a closer look and asked curiously: "Who tickled you? Do you have a girlfriend?"
When Su Yu heard this, he also took a look, laughed and teased: "It was my girlfriend who tickled me. Your girlfriend should be called Hamburger."
"Hamburger?" Hao Tian asked. She had never seen Zheng Wang's proud war cat.
Zheng Wang smiled sheepishly, scratched his head and replied: "Hamburger went to the combat partner base for the first day of class today. He refused to come in. I slapped his butt twice and became anxious..."
Su Yu and Hao Tian laughed at his funny look.
