Lu Tianyi lowered his head and spent a short while staring at Teng. After that, he said to the boy, “Your Mom might spank you for that!”
Teng said carelessly, “I’m not afraid of her. Let’s start running at tomorrow’s dawn!”
“Wait! We? Why should I run with you?” Lu Tianyi immediately felt that something was not right.
Teng gave him a glimpse and said, “Aren’t you aware that you’re my accomplice?”
‘d.a.m.n!‘ Lu Tianyi thought.
At that moment, Lin Qiao’s voice was heard, “Teng, come here.”
Lu Tianyi carried the boy to Lin Qiao and handed him to her expressionlessly. She glanced at the former with surprise. The young man wore no expression, but how come she felt as if he was throwing away a hot potato?
“Eh-hem!” Teng coughed, then looked at Lin Qiao silently. ‘What do you want?‘ he asked his Mama using an eye-contact.
“I’m taking you into the s.p.a.ce to meet your Grandma,” Lin Qiao smiled at the boy. Then, she walked into the living room and disappeared together with Teng.
“Grandma?” Lu Tianyi gazed into where Lin Qiao disappeared with confusion.
Which grandma? His mother was long gone.
“What are you doing? Come here and drink!” Kong Qingming suddenly showed up and put an arm around his neck, then dragged him outside.
“Are you able to drink as much as I can?” Lu Tianyi looked at him scornfully. He was a zombie now, so alcohol had no effect on him.
Kong Qingming snorted and said, “Alright, come here and keep us company then.”
At that time, Xie Dong, who was missing all the time, abruptly showed up at the gate of the yard. He came in and looked around, but didn’t see Lin Qiao. So, he walked to Liu Jun.
“Where’s Chief?”
Liu Jun was setting Tongtong’s bowl and chopsticks. Hearing his voice, she raised her head and said, “Oh, she mentioned about entering the s.p.a.ce just now. I think she’s in there already. What’s wrong?”
Xie Dong pulled over a chair and sat down beside her as he said with a serious face, “Something happened in Sky Fire Base.”
Liu Jun paused briefly with surprise, then looked at him and asked, “Oh? What is it?”
Xie Dong said, “Li Zhengye has started to make moves with the thing that the mysterious man brought him earlier. His targets are superpower possessors, from his own base or the other bases. Currently, he’s secretly capturing the superpowered hunters from his base. I heard that he has even caught some of his soldiers.”
Liu Jun furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Clearly, Li Zhengye was up to something no good.
“Have you found out why he’s capturing people?”
Xie Dong shook his head and said, “The time was too limited. At present, he’s only capturing people. No further movements were made yet.”
It required time to capture a certain number of people in secret, and he needed excuses to cover his action. If a large number of people suddenly went missing, the other residents in his base would panic.
“What is he going to do those superpower possessors?” Liu Jun asked with a frown.
“It’s not gonna be anything good. He has also sent out his people to hunt superpower possessors from the other bases. Currently, we’re not his only target. He’s also capturing the people from Sea City Base, Huaxia Base, and Green Mountain Base,” Xie Dong snorted coldly and said, “He is ambitious. I wonder if he was worried that his people might never be able to return to him.”
Liu Jun said, “Wait for a second. Chief isn’t here at the moment.”
In the s.p.a.ce, Lin Qiao brought Teng into her house and stood by the door, pointing at Mrs. Lin, who was squatting in the vegetable field near the house as she said, “Look, your Grandma.”
Teng looked at Mrs. Lin with surprise and said, “Eh? How did Grandma become like this?”
While Lin Qiao was pregnant with him, he slept a lot. After he was born, Lin Qiao hadn’t talked to him about his Grandma yet. Therefore, he didn’t know that Mrs. Lin had become a zombie.
Lin Qiao held him as she walked outside and said, “She became a zombie during the second eruption of the zombie virus. She has lost some of her memories. She doesn’t remember what happened recently.”
Sensing Lin Qiao’s vibe, Mrs. Lin raised her head to look at her. She remembered Lin Qiao say that her grandson would be brought here to see her today. Seeing her carry a baby, Mrs. Lin was stunned a little. She sensed the scent of the baby, then wore a confused look.
Why did the baby smell weird?
“Say Grandma,” Lin Qiao brought Teng to Mrs. Lin’s side and then said to Teng.
“Grandma,” Teng called his grandma while observing her.
Hearing the baby talking, Mrs. Lin popped her eyes in shock and gave Lin Qiao a glance. She couldn’t believe that the one-month-old baby was actually able to talk already.
“He’s special. I gave birth to him,” Lin Qiao explained to Mrs. Lin, “You might have forgotten about it, but you knew it before. You won’t be so surprised when you remember it.”
Mrs. Lin was still in shock. After hearing Lin Qiao’s explanation, she started observing Teng with her eyes wide opened. In her eyes, the baby was wearing a gray and white baby suit, with no bright colors. The only thing bright that Mrs. Lin saw were the baby’s eyes.
The baby’s eyes were clean, pure, and innocent.
Mrs. Lin had her heart softened. She raised a hand as she wanted to touch the baby. However, she then noticed that her hands were covered in soil. Besides, she was a zombie. What if her nail hurt Teng’s skin?
With that thought, she immediately dropped her hand.
“Don’t worry! He’s in a special condition, and is immune to the zombie virus. He carries the virus actually,” Lin Qiao put an arm under Teng’s b.u.t.t and said.
At that moment, Mo Yan was standing on the balcony on the second floor of the other house, bending his waist with his hands on the guardrail. He was looking at Lin Qiao. Standing next to him, the zombie girl was also confusedly looking at Teng, who was carried in Lin Qiao’s arms.
They were about three-hundred meters away from Lin Qiao, but they clearly heard what she said. They heard she say that Teng was her baby, which made both of them curious.
Mo Yan looked at Lin Qiao. She had actually given birth to a perfectly alive baby. What was the baby though? Was he a zombie? A human being? Was he both?
It was dark by the time Lin Qiao brought Teng out of the s.p.a.ce. The light was on in Wu Chengyue’s yard. Three tables were set in the yard, one in the living room, and one in the dining room.
“Oi, they’re out! Come here and let me see the baby!” Zou s.h.i.+hui landed his eyes on Teng once Lin Qiao and her son showed up. Lin Qiao glanced at Xie Dong, then handed Teng to Lin Wenwen, who had come near her. After that, she walked to the tea cabinet and found a clean gla.s.s before pouring herself a gla.s.s of liquor.
As Zou s.h.i.+hui asked to see Teng, Lin Wenwen brought the boy to his table.
