Chapter 326: That Direction
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Looking at Wu Yueling and the rabbit which had hopped over to Lin Qiao’s side, Wu Chengyue couldn’t help but fix his eyes on Lin Qiao with a weird look. She was a zombie, wasn’t she? Why did the kids and animals all want to get close to her? Did her body contain something that attracted them?
Wu Chengyue cared a lot about the fact that his daughter was almost closer to Lin Qiao than to him.
“Only fifty people? I thought you’d ask for something else,” he walked over and sat on the couch.
Lin Qiao put Wu Yueling on her knees, then turned to look at him while responding, “You should know that what we need the most at the moment are people, and nothing else.”
Wu Chengyue nodded and replied, “Em, you’re right.”
“Tell me,” Lin Qiao continued, “Do you want me to take you to her, or bring her back to you. Fifty people for the former, and a hundred for the latter.”
Wu Chengyue glanced at Chen Yuting who was extremely anxious, then said, “Take us to her. We’ll send you the people you need. And for their remuneration, we can give you a ten-percent discount. How about that?”
Lin Qiao quickly nodded and said, “Alright.”
Then, she turned to Chen Yuting and said, “Your wife is missing. Do you have anything that belongs to her? I need to confirm her scent.”
Chen Yuting glanced at Wu Chengyue with surprise and saw that the latter was wearing a faint smile. After that, he quickly took a broken bracelet out of his pocket and handed it to Lin Qiao, “This is Jen’s bracelet. She lost it in where she was kidnapped yesterday.”
Lin Qiao took over the bracelet and put it before her nose before sniffing at it, then gave it back to Chen Yuting.
“I understand.”
She put Wu Yueling on the couch, then said to her, “Little one, sit here for a while. I’ll be back very soon.”
While speaking, she put the fluffy rabbit which had hopped onto the couch into the little girl’s arms.
Wu Yueling held the rabbit as she looked at Lin Qiao and nodded obediently. After that, Lin Qiao stood up and walked toward the door. Wu Chengyue and Chen Yuting both stood up as well, following her out.
Chen Yuting followed Lin Qiao closely. However, once they were out, he saw Lin Qiao slightly bend her knees and then directly leap onto the roof of Wu Chengyue’s home, then jump on top of the utility pole nearby.
She quietly stood on top of the utility pole and looked around.
Wu Chengyue said to Xiao Licheng after coming out, “Gather thirty men… get ready for action.”
Xiao Licheng immediately nodded, then turned and left quickly.
Afterward, Wu Chengyue walked to Chen Yuting’s side and raised his head to look at Lin Qiao as well. Then, Lin Qiao leaped down and lightly landed before them.
“That direction. I have to tell you that you need to move fast, because…” Lin Qiao pointed at Region F and paused slightly, then looked at Chen Yuting and continued, “Her vibe is already very weak. You might not be able to save her if you didn’t get there quickly enough.”
Chen Yuting slightly widened his eyes as the look on his face changed.
Wu Chengyue’s face darkened as well. He turned and began walking toward the outside, saying, “Let’s go!”
Behind him, Xiao Licheng soon drove out an off-road vehicle.
Lin Qiao sat onto the front seat, then pointed at Region F and said, “Over there, the area with very mixed scents.”
Xiao Licheng glanced at her and asked uncertainly, “Is it Region F?”
At that moment, Wu Chengyue got into the back seat and said, “It’s Region F… We need to be there as soon as possible.”
“Yes, sir,” Xiao Licheng immediately started the car and began driving.
Lin Qiao glanced back at Wu Chengyue. He was always smiling, so people couldn’t figure out what he was thinking about. He wore that mysterious smile around everyone except his little princess.
“You do understand me,” said Lin Qiao.
“I was just guessing,” Wu Chengyue responded smilingly, “We can all guess that because you’re pointing at that area.”
“Why are you so sure then?” asked Lin Qiao.
Wu Chengyue didn’t answer his question, but smilingly stared at her sungla.s.ses. Lin Qiao confusedly glanced at him again, then stopped talking to him.
She couldn’t understand the look in his eyes.
At that point, Wu Chengyue abruptly talked again, “Did you cut your hair so short because I attacked you with lightning?”
Lin Qiao immediately turned back, gazing at him through the sungla.s.ses.
Wu Chengyue felt being locked by her gaze. In the meantime, an invisible vibe spread in the car.
Chen Yuting and Xiao Licheng, who was driving the car, instantly felt it hard to breathe.
Wu Chengyue grinned as if nothing happened at all, saying, “Why are you nervous? Are you afraid that I might recognize you?”
Lin Qiao glanced at the other two, then turned around to look ahead while responding, “You think I’m nervous? That was just my natural reaction.”
After saying that, she suddenly stuck her head out of the window to sniff around, then pulled her head back in and said to Xiao Licheng, “Hurry up… turn left five-hundred meters ahead.”
About ten minutes later, they arrived at Region F, the region for refugees.
At that moment, Shen Yujen’s chest was heaving very slightly in that dark room. A man was lying upon her, his hips moving constantly.
A few men were squatting in a corner against the wall, chatting with surprise.
“Eh, she’s at her last gasp for so long. This woman definitely doesn’t want to die.”
“San, do it harder. Don’t get off her until she’s dead!”
“Haha, yeah! You said that you want her last gasp. Look at you, you’ve been doing it for half an hour, yet she’s still alive.”
Hearing them, another man joined the conversation, “Alright, don’t kill her yet. Let’s inject the zombie blood into her first, then let her die slowly.”
At that point, the man on top of Shen Yujen suddenly began moving intensely. Then, he stopped abruptly and lay upon her, spending a short while to catch his breath. Then, he got up and put on his pants.
“Ah, what a shame! She’s barely reacting…” The man said while wearing his belt. Then, the man who had asked his friend not to kill her walked to the bedside. In that dark room, the syringe needle in his hand shone with a gleam of light.
It was half a tube of dark-red blood. No one knew where that man found the zombie blood.
He bent over and picked up Shen Yujen’s arm which was covered in wounds and bruises, then pierced the needle into her skin and began injecting the zombie blood into her body. The injection of the blood didn’t cause any reaction in Shen Yujen, who was already like a dead body.
After pulling out the needle, the man said to the others, “Get the bag.”
They prepared to secretly send this woman to the research inst.i.tute after the injection during her transformation.
The virus required time to develop in the body of a living human being, so they still had some time to transport the woman to somewhere else.
Right at that moment, a thunderous bang was heard. Following the sound, the door was suddenly kicked open.
