Zombie Sister Strategy

A wave of warmth flew into Lin Qiao’s body from her palm, then got concentrated in her brain. She didn’t know how to explain this to Xie Dong.

It seemed that she had made this crystal nucleus, which belonged to him, disappear.

Lin Qiao looked at Xie Dong; although the nucleus was dug out by her, she didn’t think of it as hers. This whole time, she believed that it should belong to the latter.

She was just curious, and wanted to figure out why she was able to see into someone else’s space. She just wanted to know how on earth did that happen; but now, the space-powered man was dead because of what she had done, and the crystal nucleus was absorbed by her.

So now came the question, where was the space?

She once again looked at Xie Dong awkwardly, and saw him still sniffing the air with his eyes closed and head raised. Clearly, he hadn’t yet come back to himself from that refreshing aroma of the brain.

As Lin Qiao prepared to tell him that she had absorbed the space-power man’s nucleus, she suddenly felt something. The feeling climbed up to her forehead, and after that, she sensed something in her forehead that wasn’t there before.

She suddenly turned her eyes to look in another direction.

That area was occupied by a white fog; but all of a sudden, the edge of the white fog moved like a roller blind, slowly rolling up and showing a door-like entrance.

Lin Qiao stood up and dragged over Xie Dong, who had just woken up from the aroma, then walked toward the entrance.

Being dragged by Lin Qiao suddenly, Xie Dong’s mind was cleared as well. As he prepared to ask her about what was happening, he raised his head and saw the suddenly appeared entrance as well.

A dark, over two meters tall, doorway appeared in the white fog, looking a little weird. But, this was Lin Qiao’s space, and there should be no danger here.

Lin Qiao dragged Xie Dong with her because she was worried that he might lose control and rush to the other side of the lake to eat Wu Yueling while she was scouting the entrance.

In fact, Lin Qiao’s space wasn’t huge in size. It seemed to be composed of two parts: the lake and the grassland. At a glance, she knew that the land area of her space was around one-thousand meters squared, and the surface of the lake accounted for sixty percent.

The rest of her space was blocked by a white fog.

As a matter of fact, Lin Qiao hadn’t discovered that her space was even smaller back when she entered it the first time. She had yet to find out that her space had already expanded quite a lot, or, the fog had dissipated partially.

Therefore, this suddenly appearing entrance really made her feel weird.

Dragging Xie Dong, Lin Qiao walked to the edge of her space. Standing before that new entrance, she looked inside and was dumbfounded again.

Wasn’t it the space of that space-powered man? How could it be inside her space?

She paused with surprise, then turned around and looked at Xie Dong confusedly.

Xie Dong stared at her expressionlessly without knowing her meaning. He saw this space too and was also feeling surprised. However, he didn’t know that it was the space-powered man’s space, and just thought it as a part of Lin Qiao’s.

What he had been wondering was, why didn’t this strange entrance appear earlier on, but suddenly appeared just now?

It was now that he noticed Lin Qiao also having a bewildered look on her face. Unfortunately, her face was way too ugly, and her expression was a little twisted. So, Xie Dong failed to understand her meaning.

Seeing his face while reading his mind, Lin Qiao learned that he still didn’t know what had happened. Hence, she wrote down a sentence on the paper and showed him.

‘This is the space-powered man’s space.’ 

Xie Dong quickly read the note, then the expression on his face paused shortly. Next, he widened his eyes and turned his head to look at Lin Qiao with shock, who nodded back in confirmation.

And now, he was dumbfounded as well. Was Lin Qiao capable of this? Had she just turned someone else’s space into hers?

Lin Qiao waved at him, then both of them set foot in the entrance.

On entering, they found that this space was rather small. It couldn’t be compared with Lin Qiao’s space, as it was only as big as a seventy or eighty meters squared room. However, it contained oxygen, which was why living human beings could stay here safely.

Lin Qiao glanced at the pile of things in a corner.

Apart from some clothes and weapons, some sundries and tools were also stored here. As for food and drink, Lin Qiao found a few packets of biscuits and instant noodles, and a boxful of mineral water. A couple of bottles had already been taken from the box.

Lin Qiao walked over, picked up those biscuits, and checked the expiration date. As expected, those were all expired already. However, even expired food was precious in this post-apocalyptic era. People weren’t as picky about food these days as they used to be. How dare they? After all, they would have nothing to eat at all if they got picky!

Water was precious as well, because almost all water sources in the mainland had been contaminated.

For this reason, the domestic water in the bases was mostly created by people with ice-power and water power.

This space-powered man didn’t seem to be capable, because even as a space power holder, he didn’t manage to build a rich collection. The most precious thing he had was a few tankfuls of gas. Lin Qiao couldn’t tell if he brought the gas in by himself or some other people asked him to do it.

Perhaps, these few tankfuls of gas was the reason he survived till he was killed by Lin Qiao.

Earlier on downstairs, Lin Qiao had seen the car which was parked beside the building. She knew that the car belonged to Xie Dong, as he had told her so with hand gestures at that time.

It was a military off-road car, driven over and parked here by Huang Xiao.

Lin Qiao rummaged in the pile of sundries to try and find a map or something like that. Surprisingly, she did find a map. She took it out and gave it a close look, finding that it was a map of Sea City.

She and Xie Dong were now located in HP District. To head South and enter Ze Province, they needed to go through Xuhui District, Mingxing District, and JS District.

Anyhow, with this map, she at least knew how to get to her hometown.

She then found a notebook in the size of A4 paper from those sundries. Writing on it was much more comfortable than writing on Xie Dong’s palm-size notepad.

She then directly sat down, crossed her legs, and waved at Xie Dong. She planned to have a good talk with him about his future plans.

She planned to go South to find her family, so she needed Xie Dong’s car and the few tankfuls of gas here. But, she didn’t know if he was willing to give these to her. They had talked about this earlier, but back at that time, he had only informed her that he had a car without promising to give it to her.

By now, the people he wanted to kill were dead, and his car had been found. Although the level-five zombie could still be nearby, Lin Qiao should be able to figure out a way to leave this place if she wanted to. Therefore, she was now going to ask Xie Dong about his plan.

Xie Dong sat down casually and looked at Lin Qiao. In fact, he was more curious about his zombie level at this point. Was he a level-three zombie? He assumed so, because he had intelligence and memories.

However, he didn’t seem to be as agile and nimble as level-three zombies. He felt that he was only a little nimbler than ordinary zombies.

Lin Qiao took out the pen and started writing on a paper— ‘The people you wanted to kill have died. Where do you plan to go next? Wherever you’re going, I want to borrow your car and the gas here.’

Reading these words, Xie Dong paused, his face filled with confusion.
