Long Qingying silently turned to glance at Du Yuanxing when she saw the sunglasses worn on Lin Qiao’s face. After that, she turned back to continue staring at Lin Qiao while trying to ask her a question, “Did you…save us?”
Long Qingying remembered that before she passed out, the short big-headed zombie had already charged at her and her teammates while they were incapable of reacting. At that time, she had known that she was in danger, but couldn’t manage to fight back.
She also saw that a claw stopped the big-headed zombie and pierced into its head swiftly, fiercely, and accurately. After that, the big-headed zombie uttered a shrill scream which knocked her and her teammates out.
She observed the surrounding environment, then realized that she was in a hotel room. The decorations in the room continued to be the same as before the apocalypse. The room was untidy and dusty, meaning that no one had been here before.
Long Qingying tried to talk to Lin Qiao because the latter had written her and her teammates a note before. Since she understood that Lin Qiao knew how to communicate, she decided to try building a conversation with her.
Lin Qiao calmly nodded at her.
Looking at the sunglasses that she was wearing, Long Qingying continued with confusion, “You’re a zombie…But, why can you understand our words? You can write, and you saved us. Are you really a zombie?”
Lin Qiao directly showed her claws.
“So why did you save us? Shouldn’t you be eating us? Don’t all zombies eat human beings?” Long Qingying asked.
Lin Qiao picked up the notepad and began writing with patience—’I’m a zombie, but I’m different from ordinary zombies. I don’t need to feed on human beings. I saved you because I need to ask you about a few people.’
Finishing writing, she approached Long Qingying with the notepad.
The latter automatically moved backward. Even though the zombie hadn’t shown any hostility, she didn’t dare to let it get close to her. After all, zombies were spreading the virus, and were all highly dangerous.
Seeing Long Qingying’s move, Lin Qiao stopped moving. She had no other choice but to step back, rip the piece of paper off the notepad and wad it up, then throw it at Long Qingying.
Long Qingying caught it, then unwrapped and read the note. After that, she raised her head to look at Lin Qiao and asked, “You…Are really different from the other zombies. Who do you want to know about?”
As Lin Qiao prepared to write the names of her mother, brothers, and sisters, Du Yuanxing, who was lying on the other bed, woke up as well.
“Em… Ouch…” he moaned in pain, then took a deep breath. After that, he sat up from the bed with a twisted face.
“What happened… this place is… Oh! My sunglasses!” He sat up and raised his head to look around, then saw Lin Qiao, who was standing by the bedside wearing his sunglasses. He recognized his sunglasses immediately. To confirm, he touched the bag around his waist and found that it was as empty as he had thought.
Lin Qiao looked at him and curved her lips to give him a smile. As a result, her white and sharp teeth were exposed.
After becoming a zombie, her smile had become awfully scary, and she couldn’t do anything to change that.
Seeing her sharp teeth, Du Yuanxing somehow sensed a coldness from his heart. So, he silently turned his eyes away from Lin Qiao’s face to Long Qingying.
Long Qingying stood up, moving toward Du Yuanxing.
“What’s going on? Why are we here?” As Long Qingying came to him, Du Yuanxing stood up as well and asked with a low voice.
“Didn’t you see it? He saved us,” Long Qingying fixed her eyes on Lin Qiao while responding, also with a low voice.
Du Yuanxing was confused. “Is he a zombie or a man? Why did he save us?” He asked.
Long Qingying rolled her eyes. ‘He has admitted that he’s a zombie before, so isn’t it a little dumb for you to ask this question now?’ She thought.
“Zombie…He saved us, and he has requirements.” Long Qingying believed that asking for information could be counted as a requirement.
“What requirements? Does he want to eat us one by one?” Du Yuanxing asked.
Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and couldn’t help but click her tongue. She felt that this man was a little silly.
Long Qingying didn’t know what to say.
She felt that Du Yuanxing’s brain might not have started working since he just woke up. Therefore, she didn’t answer the man’s question, but looked at Lin Qiao.
“Who do you want to know about?” She asked.
Hearing what Long Qingying had said, Du Yuanxing learned that the zombie’s requirement was to ask about some people. So, he sighed in relief, then realized that he should check his own body condition.
What people feared the most about leaving the bases for action was to be infected by the zombie virus. The slightest infection could cost them their lives. Therefore, they all needed to try their best and prevent any possibility of infection from happening.
For example, they couldn’t let themselves be scratched or bitten by zombies, or eat mutant plants, or be attacked by zombie beasts or other mutant creatures.
Du Yuanxing checked his own body over and over again, and found nothing wrong. Except for the slight dull ache in his head, he was perfectly unharmed.
At that point, Lin Qiao was writing—’Have you heard about Lin Feng, Huang Mei, Lin Wenwen, and Lin Hao?’
Finishing writing, she wadded the paper up and threw it at Long Qingying again.
Long Qingying caught the paper wad and unwrapped it. Du Yuanxing moved over to read the note as well. After that, he turned to Lin Qiao with confusion.
“Do you know them? Why are you looking for them?” He asked.
Lin Qiao nodded. Of course, she knew them. Those people were her family. Even though she had changed into a different creature, they were still her family.
She was looking for them because she wanted to know their current situation and what kind of a life they were now living.
From Du Yuanxing’s tone, Lin Qiao had sensitively detected his vigilance.
She looked at Du Yuanxing and Long Qingying with confusion. The expression in Du Yuanxing’s face had apparently told her that he knew her family. But, she didn’t quite understand the vigilance in his eyes.
That seemed to be an awareness of protection.
Not only did Du Yuanxing and his team know Lin Feng and his family, they were also trying to protect them.
Lin Qiao felt that the looks in the faces of Long Qingying and Du Yuanxing were a little strange. She knew well enough about her own brother, who wasn’t a weak person. Even if he didn’t become a superpowered man, surviving in the post-apocalyptic world wouldn’t be a difficult thing for him, because he used to be a battalion commander.
He was an even more experienced soldier than herself. So, he would be strong enough to protect himself and his family.
However, judging by the looks of Long Qingying and Du Yuanxing, Lin Qiao now felt that Lin Feng and his family weren’t in a good situation. The vigilance in the eyes of Long Qingying and Du Yuanxing was strangely strong, as if she would do something to Lin Feng and his families.
‘No, their vigilance isn’t against me, but against many people!’ Lin Qiao then thought. ‘Have my families encountered any trouble in the base?’
Lin Qiao had sensed a lot of things from the expressions and emotions of Long Qingying and Du Yuanxing. What allowed her to do that wasn’t only her keen judgment as a soldier, but also that her mind-reading ability having grown further stronger.
“Can you tell us what’s your relationship with Lin Feng?” Long Qingying asked frowningly.
