In this chapter, the doctor discusses the discovery of a new type of zombie, the "ba-bump." The ba-bump is a female form of the undead who has recovered from her "turbid period" . The doctor says that this discovery will be the "biggest discovery since Zoma was established" , which means that there will be "a new type" of zombie. He also says that his research will "broaden the possibilities for our research." The doctor asks the chief why he and his grandfather have been conducting research on the undead. The chief says that he has been watching the undead in movies and in games for "a long time," and he says that when a person starts to like another person, they do not really think about why they like that person. He says that in the case of the ba-bummer, the effect of the potion that revives the dead woman was so great that she was able to come back to life.
