Chapter 31: Plant Strawberries in the space

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
Seeing that the little girl had finally eaten something, Lin Qiao felt slightly relieved. However, the former couldn’t live on strawberries, so she still needed to find her some other food. As she didn’t plan to send her back for the time being, she had to go and find her some more food.
She also needed to find herself some clothes, and beyond that, needed to figure out a way to improve her body condition, as staying this stiff was not a solution. Also, her level seemed to be a bit low and her strength was too poor. She had to grow her strength!
In her current condition, if she encountered level-five zombie leaders or superpowered human beings at level-five or above, she would be totally beaten up. She might have time to hide in her space only if she were lucky.
The problem was that she didn’t know how to improve her strength. Should she kill zombies and take zombie nuclei like the other zombies did? But earlier on, that level-three zombie’s nucleus hadn’t seemed to benefit her at all, did it?
Or, should she kill human beings and collect their energy nuclei?
She couldn’t just randomly kill human beings! If the targets were villains…That was a workable thought—this apocalyptic world had provided no shortage of villains!
Wasn’t Lu Tianyu a villain? What about the ones who got her killed?
If Lin Qiao restored her strength now, she would no longer need to worry about Lin Yong and her other enemies. She could directly pick a fight with them and even have a chance of winning!
All in all, if she were going to head South to find her family, she must improve her strength beforehand. After all, she didn’t know what she might run into on her way! In this world, zombies weren’t the only things to fear.
Thinking of these things, Lin Qiao turned around and prepared to exit the space. But suddenly, she thought of the little one’s aggrieved and lost expression and realized that the child might feel bored or afraid of staying here alone.
‘Why not catch that rabbit for her to play with? But then, although the rabbit is small, it looks rather fierce, doesn’t it? Will it bite?’ Lin Qiao thought.
Lin Qiao focused her ears, carefully listening for noises from the surrounding grasses, then sniffed around with her nose to confirm the little rabbit’s location. After that, she stood up and turned around, slowly walking into the grass.
Wu Yueling watched her curiously, wondering what she was going to do. Quite a while later, she saw Lin Qiao come out while carrying that rabbit.
Lin Qiao gripped the soft fur behind the rabbit’s neck, which had curled up its legs, dropped its ears, and widened its red eyes. Its two forepaws were still holding the half-eaten strawberry.
She walked up to Wu Yueling and handed the rabbit to her. The girl raised her head and looked at her, then glanced at the rabbit. Her expression was blank and a little confused.
‘Is this for me? I don’t want it! This rabbit is so ugly! I don’t want it!’
Wu Yueling glanced at it a couple of times, then suddenly turned her face which registered a dislike.
Sensing her thoughts, Lin Qiao was a little speechless.
Didn’t all little girls like fluffy animals? Wasn’t that what people said? Who was the dumba*s who said that? Besides, although this rabbit looked ashy, it was not ugly! Its eyes were very round, its ears were long, and its buck teeth were cute. It was actually quite adorable!
Lin Qiao held the rabbit to her own face and looked at it carefully. After confirming that it was indeed quite adorable, she offered the rabbit to Wu Yueling again.
Wu Yueling once again turned her head without glancing at the rabbit and continued to silently eat her strawberries.
Lin Qiao had no choice but to put the rabbit down. She then poked Wu Yueling’s head with her finger. This child hadn’t washed her hair for many days, so her ponytail was now loose and greasy.
Wu Yueling raised her head to look at Lin Qiao as the latter poked her.
Lin Qiao first pointed at the sky with her finger, then pointed at herself. After that, she suddenly vanished.
With these gestures, she was trying to warn Wu Yueling that she would be leaving.
Seeing Lin Qiao disappear suddenly, Wu Yueling paused for a second, then her eyes turned red and her lips quivered. She looked around in panic but didn’t see Lin Qiao. Maybe because she had experienced this a few times and had gotten used to this already, she calmed back down after glancing around again and confirming that Lin Qiao had truly left this place.
She quietly continued to eat her strawberry, finally finishing a whole one. After that, she lowered her head and looked at the rest of the strawberries beside her, then soon picked another one and continued eating.
…
Lin Qiao gazed around at the strawberry field after exiting the space. The moonlight poured onto the ground, casting a faint silvery glow. As the strawberries couldn’t be stored in her space for too long after being picked, she wondered if she could plant some strawberry plants in her space and make them grow.
She made a move once she had this idea, immediately bending over in the strawberry field and digging up the roots of a strawberry plant. She didn’t know how to transplant, so she simply dug out the entire strawberry plant along with the soil, then directly threw it into her space.
Fortunately, her claws were useful and allowed her to dig into the ground easily. However, her movements were slow due to her poor flexibility. Finally an hour later, a large area of this strawberry field was emptied by a zombie named Lin Qiao.
After digging up tens of strawberry plants, Lin Qiao stopped and then flashed into her space.
Once she was in the space, she found that the strawberry plants had been thrown into the middle of the grass, crushing the grasses to the ground. At the moment, Wu Yueling stood quite far away while holding the last two washed strawberries.
Many strawberries were still hanging on the strawberry plants that Lin Qiao had thrown in, so the entire place stank due to the unwashed fruit.
Lin Qiao wasn’t bothered by the stench, so she slowly separated these strawberry plants and then began digging holes in her space. After digging, she directly planted these strawberries in.
This series of movements took her a long while. After she finished planting the strawberries, she stood up and glanced at Wu Yueling, only to find that the kid had moved to the other side of the lake and was curled up asleep on the grasses.
Lin Qiao suddenly slapped her own forehead. She should have brought something to sleep on first, but she hadn’t thought about that.
The little one looked so pitiful while sleeping on the grasses like this!
She went to the lakeside and washed her hands. After carefully washing the soil off her hands, she looked back at the planted strawberries. The strawberries plants were wilting, and she would need to water them later on.
She again flashed out of the space, then glanced around her and spotted a house-like building in the near distance. It should be where the owner of this strawberry field had lived before the apocalyptic era started.
She walked toward the house and soon arrived there, albeit with a bit of an effort.
It was a flat-roofed house. The door and windows were shabby, and the things inside the house had been ransacked and carelessly thrown about. This house had clearly been looted, but that must have had happened a very long time ago, because everything was covered by a thick layer of dust now.
Lin Qiao walked inside and took a look around. Not much was left in there, as everything of use had already been taken away.
She wandered around, searching through the living room and bedroom, but failed to find even a rotten quilt. She found a dusty mat which hadn’t broken even after such a long time because it was made from bamboo.
