Chapter 265 - Her good behavior only lasted a few minutes (1)
Hearing Lu Xingchi's answer, the serious Captain Zheng showed a rare smile. "Okay, then wait here for me." He walked over to the gatehouse and soon brought back someone.
It was a bearded man. He wore a skintight black vest that showed off his fierce-looking body. He wasn't part of the search team yesterday. He was holding a cigarette in one hand and a big machete in the other hand.
"This is Big Black," Captain Zheng introduced.
Bei Nuan surreptitiously asked the skinny man, "I didn't see him in the search team yesterday."
The skinny man quietly answered in an envious tone. "Big Brother Black is really good with his machete. He probably has giant piles of meal tickets at home. He has no interest in going out to earn meal tickets. He probably agreed to go out because he wants a night at Taipingmen."
Captain Zheng went to find a crowbar and offered it to Bei Nuan.
He said, "The place we're going to is in the south. It's not far. If we go now, we can be back in the afternoon." After saying that, he turned around and opened the door to the jeep behind him.
Bei Nuan was startled. They were leaving just like that?
"Just us? No one else?" Bei Nuan wanted to know more.
Captain Zheng replied, "The four of us is enough."
The skinny man hastily begged, "Captain…"
The skinny man pitifully looked at Captain Zheng. He really wanted to go with them. He could only earn three days' worth of meal tickets when he went out with the search team. Getting a month's worth of meal tickets was too tempting.
This was definitely a lucky opportunity that he had to try his best to get. He couldn't let it slip past him.
Without hesitation, Bei Nuan immediately silently chanted "well-behaved baby, be obedient", stared into Captain Zheng's eyes, and suggested, "Captain Zheng, let's take him with us?"
Captain Zheng looked back at Bei Nuan. His eyes were glazed over for a moment, and his expression was dull.
He actually nodded and gestured at the skinny man. "Get on."
This time, she was sure the ability had worked.
Bei Nuan was over the moon. This ability was even stronger than the previous abilities.
Lu Xingchi had mentioned in Yao Town that Xie Yuanqing had a similar ability. Xie Yuanqing used his pleasant voice to hypnotize people and gradually gained control over their thoughts and behaviors.
Bei Nuan's ability was obviously much stronger than Xie Yuanqing's. It didn't take any effort. She only had to recite the incantation, stare into their eyes, and make her request.
The five people got into Captain Zheng's seven-seater jeep. Bei Nuan calmly sat down next to Lu Xingchi and was mentally spinning in circles with joy.
After the jeep had been on the road for a while, Lu Xingchi suddenly asked, "Bei Nuan, why are we in a jeep?"
Bei Nuan: huh?
She raised her head and looked at Lu Xingchi in surprise. Lu Xingchi's brow was slightly furrowed, and his gaze was bewildered.
He seemed to have a headache. He was rubbing his temples. He asked again, "Where are we going? What's going on?"
Captain Zheng, who was driving, glanced at Lu Xingchi in the rearview mirror. He found Lu Xingchi's questions a bit odd. "Didn't you agree to go fetch stuff?"
Bei Nuan looked at Lu Xingchi, thought it over for a second, and suddenly understood.
This ability had a strange, additional function. It erased his memory of agreeing to her request. Not only could she order people to do something, they would also forget she had given that order. This ability couldn't be more considerate.
Bei Nuan was overjoyed. "Lu Xingchi, did you forget? You agreed to go with them to retrieve stuff."
Lu Xingchi's calm face looked a bit confused. "I don't remember that."
Bei Nuan solemnly said, "Maybe its residual effects from the candle last night? I feel a bit dizzy today."
Captain Zheng glanced at Lu Xingchi through the rearview mirror. His gaze drifted to the skinny man, who was sitting in the last row of the jeep. He suddenly asked, "Skinny Monkey, why are you in the jeep?"
The skinny man looked terribly wronged. "Captain, you agreed to let me come with you guys. How could you forget it so soon?"
Bei Nuan saw Captain Zheng's doubtfully frown.
"Really? How come I don't remember? Well no matter why you're here, if you pee in fright when you see a zombie, I'll kick you out."
Big Black interjected, "He won't. Skinny Monkey will immediately faint from fright."
Bei Nuan thought; he really understood the skinny man.
The skinny man hastily agreed. "Captain, don't worry. I'll obediently follow you guys. I definitely won't cause trouble."
Captain Zheng harumped. He still seemed baffled and quietly muttered to himself, "How could I agree to let him come?"
Bei Nuan's expression didn't change. She only pursed her lips. She was secretly quite amused.
Captain Zheng had also forgotten that she had incited him to bring the skinny man along.
It was as if they had short-term amnesia.
After doing bad things, she could still keep her role hidden. No one remembered, so no one would be able figure out that she was the culprit. It couldn't feel more awesome.
Bei Nuan spoke. "What's wrong with you guys? You forgot what you've done. Is this an alliance of people with amnesia?"
Lu Xingchi glanced at Bei Nuan with narrowed eyes. He suddenly said, "Wasn't it your idea to bring him along?"
Bei Nuan's heart trembled.
Captain Zheng didn't remember that she had instigated him to bring the skinny man along, but Lu Xingchi remembered. The amnesia would only happen to the target of her command.
She shouldn't get carried away and talk too much. It was better to settle down.
Bei Nuan sat properly in the seat in a composed manner and behaved herself for the next few minutes.
Her good behavior only lasted a few minutes. It felt too uncomfortable to not use such an effective and powerful ability. The time she had this ability was ticking away.
