Chapter 565: I Am A Zombie, So What?

As the others started leaving, Lin Qiao left with Lu Tianyi as well. Watching her leave, Wu Chengyue narrowed his eyes. A mysterious light flashed across those dark eyes.

Next to him, Yuan Tianxing, who was preparing to leave, noticed the look in his eyes. He paused briefly and glanced at Wu Chengyue, then turned and left.

Lin Qiao brought Lu Tianyi to the fifth floor and gave him the room opposite to Xie Dong’s room.

After entering the room, Lin Qiao handed him a cup of water, saying, “Drink this. You know what you are, so you need to be careful. As you know, the fifth floor is isolated from the lower floors. To avoid unnecessary troubles, people won’t come up to this floor unless they have to. However, you can go down, as you don’t look like a zombie. But still, do not catch the attention of those commoners down there.”

Lu Tianyi took over the cup and sniffed at the water. He could tell that it was the water from the lake. Thinking that both he and Lin Qiao were in the lake before, he hesitated slightly.

“What? Are you too scared to drink the lake water because we were soaked in the lake before? Why don’t you think about how huge that lake is? Besides, the energy in the lake can decompose other matter, such as the dust and the clotted blood on you. Those had been molten back when you were put down into the water. Don’t worry, the water is clean,” Lin Qiao sensed his thoughts and explained to him.

She had the same thoughts at the start, but later on, she found that the energy in the lake seemed to be able to decompose all other matter in the lake, so she stopped worrying.

No wonder there was nothing in the lake. Nothing could survive in that lake.

Lu Tianyi finished the cup of water, then looked at Lin Qiao with puzzlement.

Seeing the look in his eyes, Lin Qiao immediately figured out what he wanted to ask. “Do you want to ask me why you turned into a zombie? My lakewater can only save living human beings. It can’t bring dead people back to life. Therefore, in order to save you, I had no choice but to turn you into a zombie.”

Lu Tianyi slightly lowered his head, as he understood her meaning.

She was trying to say that he was already a dead person back when he was sent to her. That was within his expectation though, and he had prepared himself for that. After all, he nearly lost his hope back when he was injured.

He was a zombie now, but so what? Even though the world in his eyes became black and white, he was still awake, wasn’t he? He was still able to move, run, and jump… He had no idea if he would be able to talk again though. Maybe he needed to wait until he was upgraded?

Lu Tianyi remembered that apart from Lu Tianyu, quite a few high-leveled zombies were able to talk as well.

“Relax! I’ll figure out a way to enable you to talk as early as I can. But, you need to wait until you break into level-four at least,” Lin Qiao looked at him and said.

Lu Tianyi looked at her with surprise. How come she always knew what he was thinking so clearly?

Lin Qiao laughed, “Don’t be so surprised. I’m the Chief of this place. I’m not only leading humans, but also zombies. If I can’t even read minds, how am I supposed to control those high-leveled zombies in my space?”

Lu Tianyi nodded knowingly.

Lin Qiao turned and said, “Alright. From now on, you’ll be staying here. I’m going back… Also, you’re a newborn, so you might not be able to resist human flesh right now. Just now, I noticed that you were a little distracted down there. So, you should stay away from human beings for now.”

After saying that, Lin Qiao turned and left.

Lu Tianyi gave a start as he didn’t think that Lu Tianyu would notice that. After watching her leave, he closed the door.

She was right. Just now, he was a little distracted back in the lobby. After all, every scent he sensed back there aroused his hunger and desire to feed. He knew what that was, so he forced himself to restrain it. But still, it affected him a little.

Just now when he came upstairs, that hunger was still agitating him. Only until he drank that cup of water was it eased.

Lin Qiao left Lu Tianyi’s room and went back to her own room, only to find that Wu Chengyue was there again.

“Oi… I remember that your room is on the third floor. Why do you always show up in my room? The fifth floor is not open to the people with no duty,” Lin Qiao stared at Wu Chengyue and said.

“It’s not me who wanted to come here. It’s Ling Ling,” Wu Chengyue glanced at Lin Qiao’s bed which was barely used.

Lin Qiao followed his eyes and found that the little one was sleeping pretty well on her bed. A gray ball of fur was curling next to her.

Lin Qiao stayed silent.

She went over to the bed, then bent over and gently flipped the little girl’s tousled hair.

Lin Qiao was never good at taking care of children. However, since she got familiar with Wu Yueling, she found that the girl was actually a very nice kid. She refused to talk, and was shy with strangers, and could be autistic occasionally. But except for that, she was all fine.

She was smart and obedient.

At least, Lin Qiao wouldn’t feel tired when playing with her… except for those days when they first met each other.

She understood that the little one actually wanted to talk to Viney very much. Unfortunately, Viney had been in a deep sleep all these days, so she wouldn’t be able to talk to Wu Yueling.

“In this case, you can leave now. I’ll take care of the little one. See you!” Lin Qiao stood straight and said to Wu Chengyue who was sitting on the couch.

Wu Chengyue looked at her with a faint smile and nodded as he stood up. He then turned and walked toward the door.

“I’ll leave Ling Ling to you then.” After saying that, he walked out of the door and conveniently closed the door.

Lin Qiao spent a few seconds staring at the door, as Wu Chengyue was hardly so obedient before, and she wasn’t used to it.

Next day, a few people arrived from Sea City Base before Qiu Lili came back.

This time, the one who went to the zombie wall to pick them up wasn’t one of Lin Qiao’s zombie team members, but Duan Juan.

Duan Juan drove there with a grass leaf which had been soaked in Lin Qiao’s blood. When she approached with that grass leaf, those zombies sensed the scent of Lin Qiao’s blood and automatically moved away.

The visitors were Xiao Yunlong, Xiao Licheng, Meng Yue, and a level-six old man.

When they entered the base, Lin Qiao, Wu Chengyue, and the others were already waiting for them in the conference room.

“Have a seat!” Wu Chengyue said to Xiao Yunlong while pointing at the two empty seats by his sides.

Xiao Yunlong nodded at him, then sat down along with that old man. Meng Yue stood behind them while Xiao Licheng sat on Wu Chengyue’s left side, holding a notebook and preparing to take notes.

On Lin Qiao’s side, Yuan Tianxing and Chen Yuting were sitting on both her sides. The others had all left the base.

“Has Deputy Chief Yan returned to Sea City Base?” Wu Chengyue asked Xiao Yunlong.

“Yes, injured though,” Xiao Yunlong nodded.

“As long as she’s alive,” Wu Chengyue responded blandly, “Just tell us what you need to say.”

He understood that since Xiao Yunlong had brought that old man here, Zou Shihui must have given some instructions.
