Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Chapter 66: How did you get in

Bella hadn't forgotten that Daisy was supposedly Elijah's girlfriend, although the extent of its truth was uncertain.

And she had also hinted at her own relationship with Elijah.

But that didn't mean she could do whatever she wanted in front of the official girlfriend!

Originally, it was just her lack of security that had led her subconsciously into the intimate relationship with Elijah.

Now, the confidence brought by her abilities made her care less about occupying Elijah's thoughts.

After all, it was just a human-shaped massager. She could do it herself!

Now, she cared more about the cozy atmosphere that felt like a family.

She didn't want to ruin it!

She struggled a bit, and Elijah let her go, his face still showing traces of excitement.

Bella gave him a look and nodded in Daisy's direction.

Elijah realized his mistake and cursed inwardly.

He looked at Daisy, her little face pouting, looking away angrily. He was too smug!

Damn it, it was already done anyway.

Having multiple women in the apocalypse was as normal as it could get.

Sooner or later, this truth had to be revealed.

Bella was very understanding of the situation. And there was Emily... Well, that had nothing to do with him!

Elijah, in a fit of pique, hugged Daisy tightly.

He kissed her fiercely on her puffy cheeks and rising lips.

This was fair distribution, everyone gets their share of affection!Everyone's hearts are balanced now!

"Mmm~" Daisy struggled a bit but couldn't break free.

She glanced at Bella, who was watching the scene with a smile, not a trace of anger in her expression.

Daisy felt shy and quickly closed her eyes.

Elijah didn't dare to go too far either. After kissing her for a while, he let go of Daisy and immediately changed the subject.

"Daisy, you know how important Bella's ability is for us!"

Daisy wanted to pretend to be angry, but when she heard this question, she immediately thought about it carefully and became happy.

"Does this mean we'll have an endless supply of zombie grass in the future? Everyone can awaken their abilities and advance to the second level!"

"Yes, this can make us safer and improve our lives in this apocalypse," Elijah nodded. "Now Bella is even more important than me. I hope you can protect her on our way back to Azure Isle!"

"No problem, Bella, you don't have to worry. I'll protect you on the way!" Daisy reassured Bella, patting her chest.

"Well, I trust you! Come on, let's continue eating!" Elijah joked, finally letting go of the tension from earlier.

Bella smiled, relieved, and picked up her chopsticks.

After the treatment just now, she felt hungry again!

After breakfast, Elijah found the earliest zombie grass, transferred Bella's ability to it, and found that the remaining roots had died completely.

He dug it out, buried four corpse cores in it, then transferred the newly grown zombie grass from the police kettle and used Bella's healing ability to ensure its safety.

The roots of the zombie grass touched the corpse cores and immediately began to absorb them. The newly grown leaves swayed gently, radiating vitality.

"No problem now!" Elijah breathed a sigh of relief.

This way, they had a stable source of zombie grass that would mature in about six days, enough for one person to advance to the second level.

If it was just awakening abilities, it would take about three days!

And all they had to pay were a few corpse cores.

Of course, the key was Bella!

"In my past life, I heard of healing abilities, but none were as miraculous as Bella's. I never heard of being able to heal plants," Elijah found it unbelievable, but it could also be because of his limited exposure or the other party's secrecy.

"Anyway, let's not think about that. Next is packing up..." Daisy had already gone downstairs.

Elijah specifically instructed to bring her cosplay costumes as well.

He received slightly disdainful looks from both Daisy and Bella. That's when Elijah realized those clothes belonged to Abigail.

Before the apocalypse, Abigail was a content creator on a short video platform.

With fair skin, a beautiful appearance, and long legs, she excelled in cosplay and dressing up, attracting a large following of older admirers.

She became friends with Daisy, who came from a wealthy family with a mansion.

Abigail's family was also well-off, so she didn't need to make money this way.

She simply enjoyed dressing up and portraying different characters.

Daisy dressed Abigail as the protagonist from the game "NieR: Automata," hoping to trigger some memories through cosplay.

Last night, Daisy and Abigail talked about many things from the past. Of course, one spoke while the other listened.

Although Abigail didn't show much change, merely recognizing Daisy and not saying much, Daisy remained optimistic, feeling that the day of her full recovery wasn't far off.

Meanwhile, across the street at Benjamin's house, Christopher, having eaten and prepared himself, saw an opportunity.

"Though I don't know where all the zombies outside went, this is a rare chance!"

He observed that the zombies downstairs were gone and paid no attention, thinking that something might have happened last night to draw them away.

He saw this as an opportunity and immediately geared up.

He also packed some of Benjamin's items meant for women in his bag, thinking they might come in handy when dealing with the two women across the street.

Christopher made his way downstairs without encountering any zombies.

Quietly, he approached Benjamin's place, finding Benjamin's corpse already partially devoured.

Suppressing his disgust, he began searching the body and quickly found a utility knife and two sets of keys.

One set was definitely for Benjamin's home, and the other was likely for the building.

He pocketed both sets and moved to the front door of the apartment building, trying each key. Soon, with a "click," the door unlocked.

He carefully opened the door and closed it quietly behind him before proceeding upstairs.

Based on his observation from yesterday, the woman on the fifth floor was too cautious and had kept Benjamin outside.

However, the woman on the fourth floor... Since Benjamin had been on the fourth floor and had safely reached the rooftop, she shouldn't pose much of a threat.

Christopher had only taken a quick glance yesterday.

Zombies disliked sunlight, and Abigail usually stayed near the bedroom door where the sunlight couldn't reach her, making her invisible from the outside.

So, neither Benjamin nor Christopher noticed her during their observations.

If Benjamin hadn't fallen down the stairs yesterday, Christopher wouldn't have known about the woman on the fourth floor.

And this morning, he didn't see Daisy and Elijah during his observation because Daisy had already gone to the fifth floor for breakfast.

Bella habitually closed the curtains, making observation impossible.

Arriving on the fourth floor, Christopher saw a woman inside sorting clothes and assumed she was the same woman he had seen yesterday.

"Who are you? How did you get in?" she asked.
