Liu Jun was a little stunned. “Are you saying that you… heard that name?” she looked at Lin Qiao and asked with confusion.
Lin Qiao crossed her arms before her chest, even squeezing her b.r.e.a.s.t.s slightly upward, as she said angrily, “I did not just hear his name… He’s one of those guys that Xie Dong’s woman hooked up with. When I got there, he was in that woman’s apartment. There was another guy, and they almost fought for that woman… Well, not exactly. The lower-leveled guy was kicked out by that woman.”
After saying that, she put a finger on her chin and observed Liu Jun. “That man is… He looked younger than you. Is he younger than you?” she asked.
Liu Jun first wore a surprised look, then became a little down. She glanced at Tongtong who was playing on the carpet, then had a better mood. “Yeah, he’s three years younger than me… I didn’t think that you’d actually see him. What a coincidence!”
“He attacked Xie Dong,” said Lin Qiao, “Xie Dong bought that apartment for that woman. The furniture pieces there were quite new. I guess Xie Dong had dedicated all the zombie nuclei that he earned to trade for things which that woman wanted.”
She spread her hands and continued helplessly, “Judging by that woman’s att.i.tude toward him, I think she just loved to take while he was willing to give. However, it was indeed a sad thing for him to watch the woman he loved make out with another guy right in front of him, and talk about how to get rid of him.”
“So, Qiaoqiao, did you witness Junjun’s unfaithful husband hook up with Xie Dong’s girlfriend, and hear them talk about how to get Xie Dong killed?” Qiu Lili came over and asked curiously.
Lin Qiao raised a hand as she pointed at her and nodded, “Yeah, that’s right, you’re right!” Then, she turned to Liu Jun and continued, “I didn’t realize that he was the b*stard you had mentioned. If I did, I’d do so much more than just strip him. I would cut off his d*ck and feed it to my dog… Ugh, forget it. I won’t do it, so disgusting!”
The heavy atmosphere was instantly lightened by the last sentence that Lin Qiao said.
“Do you have a dog?” asked Liu Jun. She was still a little angry though.
Lin Qiao replied, “I do. I got a zombie dog when I was trying to find an energy nucleus for Viney on my way back to Sea City. It’s still tied in my s.p.a.ce. In fact, Yang Yan was killed by that dog. I threw her into my s.p.a.ce. It’s just that n.o.body knows about it yet.”
While speaking, she put a finger in the middle of her lips.
“You did that?” Liu Jun and Qiu Lili both looked at her in shock.
“Yeah,” said Lin Qiao, “So today, I knocked that man and that woman out when I saw them in Xie Dong’s place. Then, I stripped them and threw them in the hallway.”
Liu Jun and Qiu Lili felt a little speechless. That was such a nasty move! However, those two deserved that!
“Junjun, I’ll get you some lake water later on. You need to soak yourself in it for a longer time. The energy in my lake is denser than before by many times. You can bathe in it for a whole night. You won’t be able to absorb all the energy contained in the water in just one night,” said Lin Qiao.
Liu Jun nodded.
“I want to take a bath too! I want it too!” Hearing about the lake water bath, Qiu Lili immediately burst in yells. For zombies like Qiu Lili and Liu Jun, Lin Qiao’s lake water was like a hot spring for human beings. Bathing in it was comfortable and enjoyable, as well as good for the growth of their powers.
“Don’t worry, you’ll get some too,” Lin Qiao nodded.
So that night, Lin Qiao got Liu Jun, Qiu Lili, Xie Dong, Shen Yujen, and Mengmeng—who was on the roof—each a tubful of lake water for them to bathe in it for a whole night. After that, she went up to the roof and roared at the sky.
“Roar!” She hadn’t roared like that for long. After uttering the roar, she touched her throat and felt a little weird.
Following her voice, a few figures darted swiftly toward her.
Lin Qiao’s roar had, of course, caught the attention of the people who lived on the lower floors. However, according to the rule, they shouldn’t mind the things happening on the fifth floor and the roof.
The few figures from other roofs soon landed on Lin Qiao’s roof.
Those were the five zombie leaders and the two level-four zombies, all standing in front of Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao looked at them and said, “I know that I had disappeared for a while and wasted you quite some days. So today, I’ll let you bath for an extra hour to thank you for guarding this area.”
The seven zombies quietly looked at her. Even though they didn’t make any sound, Lin Qiao had already felt how happy they were.
As she waved a hand, a one-meter-tall, large bucket appeared before those zombies.
She pointed at the bucket and said, “Now, you each go and find a bucket this tall, or anything like this that can contain water and yourselves. You’ll be bathing in it. Go, now!”
As she finished talking, the seven zombies all spent a short while staring at her with confusion. The crack-mouthed zombie boy, the zombie old man, and the two level-four zombies reacted relatively quickly, soon turning and leaving to find buckets for themselves.
The middle-aged male zombie and the other two seemed to not understand why they needed to find buckets.
“Go and find it,” said Lin Qiao to the three of them, “Don’t you want a bath? Or, do you only need to drink water?”
The three zombies understood that the water which Lin Qiao talked about was what they had been expecting for days. However, they only knew that that water was for drinking, but not that they could also bathe in it. So, when Lin Qiao mentioned earlier about taking a bath, they didn’t understand her. And now, as Lin Qiao asked them to find a bucket, they just didn’t know what it would be for.
Lin Qiao sighed and said to them, “Ugh! Just go and find a bucket each. How will you take a bath if you don’t have a bucket? Go!”
The three zombie leaders had no other choice but to leave with confusion.
Lin Qiao knew that they wouldn’t be back so soon. So, after the seven zombies had left, she glanced at the area that Qiu Lili was gazing at earlier. Then, she abruptly turned invisible and leaped off the building.
When she left, Qiu Lili and Mengmeng both glanced at the area where she was headed to, but didn’t make any move.
Downstairs, Yuan Tianxing and the other few who were at level six and five all sensed that Lin Qiao’s vibe was gone. They didn’t know where she had gone.
They thought that she went back into her s.p.a.ce.
The invisible Lin Qiao swiftly leaped across the roofs, utility poles, and treetops, soon crossing the zombie wall and arriving miles away from it. However, she didn’t stop, but kept going outward.
A couple of minutes later, she landed on top of a tall building which was located ten miles away from the new base site, in w.a.n.gjiang Street. This area was close to Qian River. The vibe from the river covered most of the vibes around it, and the wind was strong.
If Lin Qiao’s sensations weren’t much sharper than Qiu Lili’s, she wouldn’t be able to sense that a level-seven superpowered man was hiding near the river.
