Dead Ghost! Dad!

Hearing Gavin's words, the little girl froze for a moment before abruptly lifting her leg.

As she lifted her foot, she stared at the road ahead and shouted at Gavin without even turning her head.

"Lift it where? Over my head?!"

"What?"

Gavin was caught between laughter and tears, and he hurriedly continued to speak to the girl.

"Don't lift it that high, unless you're a cheerleader!"

"Then what? What do I do now? Do I press a button or pull a lever?"

"Neither! Just watch the road and count to thirty!"

As Gavin reminded her, the girl's foot obediently left the accelerator, and the RV began to slow down gradually.

Madison slowed down to match the RV, and in less than ten seconds, the RV's speed dropped to around one hundred miles per hour.

Behind the RV, the Old Ford immediately changed lanes and accelerated, overtaking the RV and pulling in front of it to begin slowing down.

As all three vehicles gradually decelerated, William's upper body arched out of the Old Ford's passenger window, screaming shrilly at the RV's bumper.

"Dad!!!"

"Quit your damn screaming, kid!"

Eugene punched William in the rear, nearly knocking him out of the vehicle.

William gripped the roof of the Ford, shut his mouth, and stared fixedly at his father.

The RV's speed dropped further in this sandwiched environment, and after another dozen seconds, it finally fell below ten kilometers per hour.

Since the girl didn't know how to park, the RV continued to crawl forward slowly even without her foot on the gas, as it was still in gear.

Seeing this, Gavin pushed the door open and jumped off the crawling Tyrannosaurus.

At the same time, the Old Ford slowed down further, intending to stop and intercept the slowly rolling RV.

But William hurriedly called out to stop Eugene, lest he hurt his half-father stuck on the bumper.

On the other hand, Gavin had already sprinted forward and grabbed the cabin door of the Ford E450.

To reach the driver's side door, he would have had to run at least six or seven more steps; Gavin naturally grabbed whichever was closer, as long as he could get inside.

The cabin door was unlocked, and Gavin darted inside, leaping into the vehicle in a single bound.

"Nice!"

Madison shouted excitedly, then continued to control his vehicle to slow down further, shifting from a crawl to a mere creep.

As for Gavin, he had just boarded when he saw a woman lying motionless in the aisle, blood flowing from her head.

Gavin stepped over the woman and was about to rush toward the driver's cabin when he heard a roar!

His pupils constricted sharply. He instantly changed direction and charged straight toward the bathroom at the back of the RV!

The roaring coming from behind the bathroom door grew more intense, but after listening carefully, Gavin narrowed his eyes in realization.

There was only roaring, no crashing; the zombie in the bathroom was likely restrained.

Determined that the zombie wouldn't break out anytime soon, Gavin turned and rushed to the driver's seat.

Seeing Gavin arrive, the little girl excitedly wanted to say something, but before she could speak, Gavin grabbed her by the collar, hoisted her up, and tossed her into the passenger seat.

After reaching the driver's seat, stopping the RV, and pulling the handbrake, Gavin finally let out a sigh of relief, pushed the door open, and jumped out.

In the passenger seat, the little girl stared at Gavin's back in astonishment, then wiped the sweat from her face and followed him out of the vehicle.

At the same time, the Ford and the Tyrannosaurus also came to a stop.

William was the first to jump out of the car, hopping and skipping toward the bumper.

Seeing William pounce toward the half-zombie stuck on the bumper, Eugene hurriedly chased after him and kicked William away.

"Ah!!!"

William cried out in pain as he hit the ground, rolling over to look at the zombie, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.

"Stop your damn crying, kid! You can at least still see your old man, but I haven't even found a trace of my sister!"

Eugene cursed irritably, walked to the front of the zombie, and looked down at its face.

"Aghhh!!!"

The zombie instinctively snapped at Eugene, but he dodged it with ease.

After avoiding the attack, Eugene rubbed the bridge of his nose and cursed viciously.

"Fuck you, Barin! This is the price for stealing my nail gun! This is the price!"

"You died easily enough, didn't you? You just up and died, leaving all the damn trouble to me!"

"To hell with it all! The world has changed. This is the apocalypse now! This is the damn apocalypse!"

"Come on then! You still wanted to hit me, didn't you? Get your ass back to hell and let me clean up your mess!"

Cursing irritably, Eugene reached behind his waist, intending to draw his gun and put the zombie down.

However, all he felt when he reached back was the firm flesh of his own backside.

Eugene froze, glanced at the Tyrannosaurus, and instinctively opened his mouth.

He wanted to say something but stopped himself, instead taking a deep breath and delivering a vicious kick to the neck of the severed zombie.

"Fuck you, Barin, this is all your fault!"

One kick, two kicks, three kicks...

Crunch...

He kicked the zombie clean off the bumper.

Seeing his father hit the ground, dragging his mangled half-body as he tried to crawl, William's throat began to tremble.

"No!!!"

With a desperate shout, he scrambled toward his father on his hands and knees.

But before he could reach him, Eugene had already flipped the zombie over with his foot, leaving it face-up and hissing incessantly.

"Take a good look, you motherfucker, take a good look! This is your deadbeat dad, deadbeat again! Dad again!"

Eugene stepped on the zombie's chest, shouting at Madison.

"Hey you, give this thing a shot! You guys took all my guns, fuck!"

"Go fuck yourself, shorty. If you call me that again, I'll rip your head off and shove it up your ass so you can get a good look at your own colon!"

Madison roared back, his words causing the little girl nearby to gasp in shock.

"Whoa!"

As the little girl exclaimed, Gavin reached out a hand toward Madison.

"The knife. There's another zombie in the RV."

"What?"

Madison blinked, then stared at Eugene as he drew a tactical knife and silently handed it to Gavin.

Gavin took the knife and walked onto the RV without a word, stepping past the unconscious woman to reach the bathroom door.

He pushed the door open a crack to assess the situation; the zombie inside was a handsome young man of seventeen or eighteen with thick blonde hair.

He was likely the little girl's family.

But so what? Was he supposed to keep the zombie around so the little girl could film My Zombie Brother?

Don't make him laugh.

Confirming the zombie was already securely tied, Gavin pushed the door open, drove the blade upward into the zombie's eye socket, and gave it a heavy twist.

The zombie went limp instantly. Gavin moved behind it, untied the ropes securing it to the hook, and hauled the corpse out.

He left the RV and carried the body to the front of the vehicle.

By the time he arrived, Eugene was pinning William's waist to the ground, holding the kid in place.

Madison was holding a combat knife, mercilessly stabbing it into the back of William's father's head and twisting it violently.

"Ugh!"

Off to the side, the little girl lunged against the hood of the car and began to retch.

Gavin tossed the young zombie next to William's father and crouched down to wipe his tactical knife clean on the zombie's clothes.

Noticing this, Eugene grinned and cursed.

"Son-of-a-bitch superstar, how's my knife treating you? That's a blade that's actually killed people!"

"Fuck you, red-headed midget, keep your mouth clean!"

The moment Eugene finished speaking, Madison straightened up like a coiled spring and stalked toward Eugene, combat knife in hand.

Watching Madison's massive, six-foot-nine frame loom over him, Eugene hurriedly backed away, raising his hands in a placating gesture.

"Hey, hey, hey, calm down, calm down! I didn't mean anything by it!"

"So what? If I hear you spout any more of that tough-guy bullshit at Gavin, I guarantee you won't live to see tomorrow. You'd better show some respect!"

Madison pressed the attack, shoving his chest against Eugene and forcing him to retreat step by step.

"Did you hear me, huh? Did you hear me, fuck you!"

With every curse and shove, he drove Eugene all the way back until he was pinned against the Ford, looking as if he were about to be crushed flat.
