Chapter 1368: Sneak Around First

“In fact, even humans need to fight their evil impulses at times, don’t they? It’s all the same,” said Duan Juan, “It depends on how you control it.”

Humans had wild natures too. Some people were born heartless, and some grew extreme thoughts through their life experiences. Otherwise, why would there be so many sick people in society?

Some humans were worse than zombies, and some zombies who still had human memories might not be as scary as humans, as their behavior would be affected by those memories.

“Sadly, we can’t turn zombies into humans. I once watched a zombie movie. It was a story about how a male zombie turned into a man. That was just a movie though. I’ve been wondering how the zombie’s heart started to beat again. That wasn’t a fantasy film. That was a science fiction story. Can’t it be explained in a scientific way?” Lin Qiao pressed a hand on her heart and murmured to herself.

Her heart was still as always, and her skin was cold. Her body was showing no sign of turning back into a human being, but Teng, whom she gave birth to, had a beating heart. Why?

The post-apocalyptic era was an era of science, yet she came back to life after she died, wearing someone else’s skin. Using that zombie body, she gave birth to a baby whose heart was beating. Also, her little sister traveled through time to seven years ago.

She somehow felt that she wasn’t living in a world where people believed in science and shared the living space with zombies, but in a world where ghosts and spirits and magic existed.

While Lin Qiao was thinking about the strangeness of her life, the few who were sitting quietly in the backseat finally joined the conversation.

“Maybe we’ll be able to do that in the future. Don’t forget that you’ve given birth to a human being,” Lu Tianyi couldn’t help but share his thoughts.

“I wish you can turn into a human,” Duan Juan gave a sigh.

After all, zombies couldn’t see the beautiful colors and taste the delicious food; all they could taste was human flesh. It was like their right to enjoy food was taken away, along with many other rights.

“The whole world is mutating now. Maybe there’s something that really can turn zombies back into humans. Natural elements mutually reinforce and neutralize each other. Maybe there is a cure? We should always have dreams and hope,” said Yuan Tianxing with a smile. He was also brought out of the space by Lin Qiao to have some fresh air. He had lost his fighting capabilities, so she had to send a few others to guard him.

About ten miles away from Huaxia Base, Lin Qiao stopped the car and ordered her people to scatter. Instead of putting them back into her space, she told them to wait outside the base while she went in herself.

To find out about the plan of Huaxia Base, she, of course, needed to find Si Kongchen. It would be easy for her to figure out what he was up to once she found him in person.

So, Lin Qiao sneaked into Huaxia Base and followed Si Kongchen’s scent. He wasn’t at home, but in his office in the administration building. The administration building of Huaxia Base was composed of a few buildings connected together. Many staff and guards were in the building and many had been going in and out. Nonetheless, it was convenient for Lin Qiao to make a way in. Instead of taking the elevator, she took the stairs. Climbing tens of floors was nothing for her anyway.

At the moment, Si Kongchen was sitting in the office alone, reading a proposal. He had a few pieces of paper spread out on the desk, which he was reading over and over again.

His door was closed by the time Lin Qiao found his office. She surely couldn’t get in through the door like a ghost, so she had two choices: wait by the door for someone to come to open it or find a way in by herself.

Judging by the scent coming from the office, Si Kongchen was in there alone. As no one was talking in the office, she couldn’t get any information by putting her ear against the door.

She glanced at the two guards who had been guarding the door and then at the office next-door. After that, she made two steps backward and walked to the room next-door. That door was open; it was a meeting room, empty at the moment.

She walked into the room and over to the window. Then, she stuck her head out to look at Si Kongchen’s office.

It wasn’t hard to crawl to Si Kongchen’s window from the window of the meeting room. She just needed to make sure the window of Si Kongchen’s office was open.

At that moment, she heard footsteps coming from the outside.

Lin Qiao immediately moved back to the door and looked outside. She felt relieved to see the man out there, because it was Wei Haichao walking toward Si Kongchen’s office. Since the man was going to enter the office, she didn’t need to climb in through the window.

Wei Haichao, who was wearing a dark-green military suit, was holding a file and reading it while walking. He walked up to the door and knocked on it before pushing it open and walking in.

“How’s it going?” Sitting behind his desk, Si Kongchen raised his head to give him a glance and ask a question. Then, he lowered his head to keep reading the proposal.

Wei Haichao looked at him and said, “We got a message from Sea City Base, look. Is it about time?”

He handed the file to Si Kongchen after walking in. The latter didn’t stand up but took it over while sitting in his chair.

Wei Haichao glanced at the papers spread on the desk and said, “Our people in Sea City Base are ready. Can we make a move now?”

While reading the file, Si Kongchen responded to him without raising his head, “Professor Bai hasn’t given the order yet.”

On hearing him mention Professor Bai, Wei Haichao gave a sigh and said, “I really don’t understand what Professor Bai is thinking. Isn’t now the perfect time? What is he waiting for?”

“It’s his plan after all. We can’t interfere in it too much ,” said Si Kongchen.

While the two of them were talking to each other, Lin Qiao had sneakily moved to their sides and leaned her head forward from a corner of Si Kongchen’s desk to read the proposal and the drawings on the desk.

Reading those, she almost failed to restrain her vibe. But thankfully, she managed to stay cool and prevent her mood swings.

She spent a while reading and then found something special in that proposal. It had something to do with that Professor Bai that they mentioned. What made her angry was that the first step of their plan would be initiated from inside Sea City Base.

Earlier, he summoned the leaders of all the other bases to Huaxia Base because he wanted Wu Chengyue to leave Sea City Base. Before that, he and his people had managed to put something that was bad for the residents in Sea City Base into the base. Their moles in Sea City Base were clearly not cleaned out by Xiao Yunlong.
