Lin Qiao leaped across the guardrail on the hallway. As she landed on the lower floor, Bao Xiaoying had already rushed downstairs, and those soldiers were going down behind her.
Bao Xiaoying was fast. However, as a commoner, she could not dodge bullets.
“Stop, or we’ll shoot!” While yelling at Bao Xiaoying, those soldiers quickly ran downstairs.
Lin Qiao leaped down again and landed before the stairs on the first floor.
Bao Xiaoying swiftly ran down to the first floor, then rushed toward the outside. The moment she rushed out, Lin Qiao reached out an arm and clasped the other’s neck. In the next second, both of them disappeared.
The moment they disappeared, the group of soldiers came downstairs. They paused before the stairway, as Bao Xiaoying had disappeared without a trace.
“She’s gone! How could she run so fast? Split and find her!”
Soon, another man ran downstairs. That was the man who was with Bao Xiaoying, coming down confusedly and helplessly.
Why did those soldiers show up in their place? Why were they so aggressive? Had Bao Xiaoying offended some people? Did she break any rules of the base?
He had no answer to any of those questions, so he was anxious.
Bao Xiaoying had a very bad feeling when her neck was suddenly clasped. Then, her eyes were dazzled. When she could finally react, she found that she was no longer in her own downstairs.
“Xiaoying!” While she was looking around vigilantly, a familiar voice was heard. Bao Xiaoying paused briefly, then turned that way with surprise.
That was really her brother!
Bao Xiaoguo rushed over, then grabbed her shoulders and said delightedly, “Great, you’re okay!”
“She’s not okay. Some people were hunting her just now,” Lin Qiao said blandly, then sat down on a couch.
Bao Xiaoguo popped his eyes and turned to Lin Qiao, “Didn’t those people bring Xiaoying under control long ago?”
“I didn’t say that,” said Lin Qiao.
“Had you met those people before?” Bao Xiaoguo turned to Bao Xiaoying and asked, but the latter shook her head. As her brother was there, she had relaxed slightly.
But, what was happening now?
She looked at Bao Xiaoguo, her eyes asking questions.
Seeing the look in his sister’s eyes, Bao Xiaoguo immediately understood her meaning. He explained to her, “Those people were targeting me. There was an accident, so they went for you. But you’re safe now. From now on, we’ll be living in a new place.”
While speaking, Bao Xiaoguo glanced at Lin Qiao.
No one else but the three of them were in the living room.
“Bring her to your room and let her rest. This place isn’t cold, so she doesn’t need to wear so many clothes. Later on, I’ll tell someone to bring you some clothes. You two stay in the room, and don’t come out for now,” Lin Qiao looked at Bao Xiaoguo, then at Bao Xiaoying.
“Alright,” Bao Xiaoguo nodded, then guided Bao Xiaoying upstairs.
Bao Xiaoying squeezed her brother’s hand and looking at him with confusion. While walking upstairs, Bao Xiaoguo sensed her movement. He turned around and glanced at his sister, then said while walking, “There’s no place for us in Huaxia Base, so we need to leave. As for that person, I don’t know who she is either. However, she isn’t a bad person. She has saved my life, and just now, she saved yours too. Now, we each owe her a life. So, from this day on, we’ll go wherever she goes.”
Bao Xiaoying looked at her brother and blinked, then nodded and lowered her head, following her brother upstairs.
Lin Qiao walked out of the living room. Thinking about what happened before, she turned and walked behind the building.
As she walked over, the zombie crowd behind the building was stirred a little. She rarely went to that area. If they needed those zombies, she would directly summon them to the clearing before the building. Therefore, seeing her come to them, those zombies somehow had a strange feeling.
Soon, Lin Qiao picked a level-three zombie, a level-four zombie, and a level-five zombie.
“Follow me!” She turned and headed to the clearing before the building while speaking. Afterward, she summoned Lu Tianyi, who was working in the vegetable field, and asked him, “Do we have any roe deer meat left?”
Lu Tianyi pointed at the kitchen and then nodded. He, of course, wouldn’t eat the whole roe deer. After finis.h.i.+ng a rear leg, he already felt satisfied, so he cut the rest of the roe deer into small pieces and stored them in the kitchen.
Lin Qiao nodded, then said, “Get in and prepare three pieces of meat for me.
Lu Tianyi turned and walked into the house. Pesticide, who was catching bugs in the vegetable field, raised his head and looked at Lin Qiao, then at Lu Tianyi. This time, he didn’t follow him into the house. Clearly, he had no interest in what Lu Tianyi was doing.
Looking at the three zombies who were at different levels, Pesticide squatted and put his arms around his knees, waiting to see what Lin Qiao was going to do next.
Lin Qiao stood before the three zombies and spent a short while observing them. The level-five zombie was a female, fire-powered one; her hair were short and messy, and she was about five feet and eight inches tall. As same as Bao Xiaoying, she looked like a tough girl too. Her face wasn’t badly damaged, although the huge dark circles under her eyes and those dark-purple lips had ruined her beauty.
A red pair of pupils were glowing in her purely dark eyes, which were fixed on Lin Qiao with both vigilance and fear.
Lin Qiao didn’t have many level-five zombies in her s.p.a.ce. The one before her was the only female one.
Lin Qiao looked at the female level-five zombie. She had made the latter change her clothes long ago, so her clothes were clean. However, her skin looked dirty, as if she hadn’t showered in many days.
She thought for a moment, then turned to Xie Dong and said, “I think we need to make her clean. I can’t bite her like this.”
Xie Dong, who was standing by the door, quietly turned and walked into the house.
Lin Qiao glanced upstairs, where Leng Xuantong and Xiao-Xiao were in their rooms. Bao Xiaoguo and his sister were staying in their room as well.
Except for Lin Kui, no one else was near the door.
Leng Xuantong knew what she was doing, but didn’t know that she was a zombie. He had seen her bite a human and a zombie, so, Lin Qiao a.s.sumed that his interest had already been aroused.
Hopefully, he wouldn’t see her as a research object.
Perhaps, he could help her to uncover all the secrets about her.
Lin Qiao looked at the three zombies before her, wondering what would happen to them after she replaced the virus inside their bodies with her own. Would they become like Xiao-Xiao? Would they be able to eat animals? Or, would they regain their memories?
Based on what happened to Xiao-Xiao, Lin Qiao felt that they would most likely regain their memories and start eating animals.
Before long, Xie Dong came back with a bowl of water and a towel. He walked up behind Lin Qiao and let her wet the towel in the bowl.
“Come over, all three of you! Come here and wash your hands!” Lin Qiao wrung the towel, then waved at the three zombies.
