Chapter 437: Ling Ling Is Being Strange

She was a little surprised. Wu Chengyue didn’t find out that she was here, did he?

She hurriedly stepped back and quickly moved to a corner in the hallway, sticking half of her head out from behind the wall to observe the door with one eye.

After that, she saw a soldier turn to open the door and let Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling out.

Wu Yueling’s hand was held by her father. She was pouting, looking a little grumpy.

Lin Qiao could tell that the little girl was very unhappy. When she got close enough, she sensed the latter’s thoughts. It turned out that the kid wanted to see her. She had been here for days, but still hadn’t seen Lin Qiao. That was why she was unhappy.

As Wu Chengyue was coming over, Lin Qiao didn’t dare to linger there. She hurriedly moved further backward while watching him try to cheer his daughter up.

“Alright, Ling Ling, can you please give Daddy a smile? Look at your little pouted mouth. I can even hang a cloth on it.”

“She’ll be back very soon. You really like her, don’t you? But, don’t you want Daddy anymore?”

“Good girl! We won’t go home until we see her, alright?”

Lin Qiao was speechless.

‘No! You are going back! Why are you staying here?’ she thought.

However, her heart was softened a little when she saw Wu Yueling’s little unhappy face. The kid’s autistic symptoms became more obvious when she was unhappy.

She thought that Wu Yueling’s autism was going better. But earlier on, she sensed something strange from the bottom of the little girl’s heart. It was not obvious, but it did catch her attention.

She crossed her arms and watched Wu Chengyue bring the little girl downstairs with all sorts of doubts. Meanwhile, she carefully thought about the faint trace of brutality which had just flashed across Wu Yueling’s mind.

She felt as if the kid was trying to restrain something. It might also be because of the bad mood that she was having now.

Anyhow, she had a bad feeling about the sudden trace of brutality which suddenly appeared in the little one’s mind. It made her feel that something bad was going to happen someday.

Since the little one wanted to see her, she decided to secretly meet her… as long as her father didn’t know about it.

She thought for a moment, and then had an idea. Next, she flashed into her space.

She glanced at the zombie dog which was still lying upsettingly on the ground, but ignored it. Instead, she walked to the grass and picked a few long grass leaves, then sat down and started weaving.

While weaving, she kept picking more grass leaves until she had a handful of different sized ones.

She wove some grass leaves into a tiny green person, then shredded some soft and tender leaves and wove them into the person’s head, making them look like soft, long hair.

Soon, she had made a grass doll and drawn a pair of eyes and a mouth on its face with a pen.

She spent a while gazing at the doll before nodding with satisfaction.

After that, she soaked the doll in the lake water, then shook the extra water off. Next, she went into the small building to look for the rabbit.

Before long, she dragged that gray rabbit which was already huge and fat out from under a couch. She sat on the couch and put the rabbit on her knees, then placed the doll on the table.

“In fact, the little one would be happier if I sent you out. But, I’d expose myself too soon if I did that. So, I can’t let you out.”

Wu Chengyue didn’t close the window in their room when he took Wu Yueling downstairs for dinner. So, Lin Qiao grasped the opportunity to get in through the window and find their bed.

They slept on the same bed, as Wu Chengyue was definitely not going to let his daughter sleep alone in a strange place. Also, Wu Yueling refused to sleep alone in a strange room. Staying alone in a strange place might lead to an attack of her illness.

Lin Qiao felt that the little girl’s autism would attack soon anyway if she didn’t show up in front of her as soon as possible.

Based on the conversations between some other people that she had overheard, she learned that Wu Chengyue and the little one had already been here for three days.

She didn’t think that waiting three days without seeing her would make Wu Yueling’s autism flare up. That made her feel weird.

Judging by what Cheng Wangxue said, Wu Yueling refused to play with Lin Xiaolu. Lin Xiaolu wanted to play with her very much, but she ran away every time. Later on, Lin Xiaolu gave up as well.

So these days, Wu Yueling had been following Wu Chengyue everywhere.

She didn’t see Lin Qiao, so she was unhappy; and the unhappiness led to anxiety. After being anxious for three days, she became a little depressed. That was what Lin Qiao sensed from her.

Lin Qiao walked to the side of the bed that Wu Yueling slept in and put the grass doll under her pillow before leaving.

She went back to the fifth floor and found Qiu Lili’s room. Then, she took out a piece of paper and a pen, writing a note and placing it on Qiu Lili’s table.

Next, she turned and left again. She returned to the sweet potato field under Mount Wu, thinking about how to plant crops in it.

Back in the sweet potato field, she entered her space and looked at the strawberry field which was damaged by the zombie dog while chasing the snake. She walked over and squatted helplessly to remove the broken strawberry plants.

While she was cleaning the strawberry field, Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling went back to their room.

Wu Chengyue felt helpless, as his daughter was unhappy. The female zombie didn’t show up, and he couldn’t find her. He was thinking that if she kept hiding, he would have to figure out a way to make her show up.

Stepping into the room, Wu Yueling quickly dropped her father’s hand and got into the bed.

“Ling Ling, you haven’t taken a shower yet,” Wu Chengyue reminded her. However, she completely ignored him. It was like back in the worst time of her autism. Wu Chengyue knew that her autism was going to flare up again.

On one hand, the little girl was anxious because she thought that her Daddy lied to her. On the other hand, she looked forward to see Lin Qiao so much. So, the longer she waited, the more disappointed she got.

As her father, Wu Chengyue surely knew how his daughter was feeling right now. So, he was aware that he needed to figure out a way to find that female zombie as soon as possible.

At that moment, the door was pushed open. Xiao Licheng walked in and said to him, “Chief, the fifth floor is the territory of those zombies. Usually, the others aren’t allowed to go there. But Miss. Liu told me that Miss. Lu hadn’t come back there in days indeed. Also, I’ve checked the Mount Wu area. Except for the field, there was also a large snake pit there.”

“Take a seat,” Wu Chengyue pointed at the couch next to him.

Xiao Licheng sat down and continued, “There was a huge mutated snake in that pit. Judging by the traces near the pit, the snake should be as thick as an average size woman’s waist. It’s missing now as it’s not in the pit. Also, a lot of evidences of a struggle were left in the pit. Those traces are new. I think some people have been there recently… more than one group of people.”

“Did she go to catch the snake?” said Wu Chengyue with a strange look on his face, “She ate a thigh-thick snake last time.”

“Eh… that’s possible,” said Xiao Licheng.
