Chapter 178: Ask if You Want

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_

Seeing the turtle run swiftly in the cage, the others all came closer with surprise.

Was that really a turtle? Why was it even faster than a rabbit?

Lin Qiao reached a hand into the cage and swung it quickly.

Thud, thud, thud!

The other turtles were all brought out of her space and thrown into the cage.?In the next instant, the group of turtles began running about in the cage.

Cling-clang, cling-clang… The loud noises echoed across the entire parking lot.?The group of people had all picked the rooms facing the parking lot. Therefore, they heard the noise and looked down through the windows.

“Eh? What are they doing down there?”

“Such a large cage. What are those creatures in the cage? They’re so big, looking a little like…turtles?”

“Turtles? Have you ever seen the turtles that can run so fast?”

“Em… They’re really turtles! But, I guess they’re mutant. Why did Lu Tianyu cage those turtles?”

“Who knows? She’s weird!”

By the parking lot, Long Qingying couldn’t help but ask, “Did you go to catch these turtles last night? Are you gonna eat them?”?She knew that Lin Qiao liked to eat mutant animals. So, when she saw these turtles, she guessed that they might be her food.

Lin Qiao put on the sunglasses and smilingly nodded at her.

“So, you eat these. No wonder you don’t eat human beings,” said Lin Wenwen. “But, these turtles are mutant. I think they all carry the virus. You’re a zombie, so you won’t be infected, but if you put these turtles here, will they escape from the cage and bite us?”

‘That would depend on whether the cage is strong enough,’?Lin Qiao thought as she turned to Long Qingying.?The latter responded, “They can’t get out unless someone lets them out.”

The cage was heavy. A few large turtles tried biting the metal sticks with their sharp teeth, but only left some white marks on the cage.

“Em,” Lin Wenwen glanced at Long Qingying and nodded.?Then, Lin Qiao said to both of them, “You…can…eat…”

Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying glanced at each other, then turned toward her bewilderedly.?“Do you mean we can eat these turtles? But, they’re mutant, carrying the virus. If we eat them, we’ll become like you, won’t we?”

Lin Qiao shook her head and said slowly, “You…won’t…There’s…a…way…”

Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying looked at her with confusion. “You haven’t been feeding the child with mutant animals, have you?” Lin Wenwen asked skeptically.

Before, Lin Wenwen had wondered how the few zombies managed to take good care of a human child. Just now, she and Mr. Lin were talking about what the zombies had been feeding the child with.

Lin Qiao nodded at her.?Lin Wenwen widened her eyes as she asked, “Aren’t you afraid that the child might become a zombie?”

Lin Qiao waved a hand and replied, “He…won’t…”

Lin Wenwen looked at her with puzzlement in her head. She felt that it was a miracle for the boy to have survived until present. However, if Lin Qiao could tell what was edible for human beings and what wasn’t, it would be highly helpful.

“How long has the boy been with you?” She asked. Lin Qiao showed her seven fingers in response.

“Seven? Seven months? Or days?”

“Days…” Lin Qiao said slowly.

“Okay,” Lin Wenwen nodded.

As the cage was forged and the turtles were caged, Lin Qiao turned to walk back to the hotel. The others followed her while Lin Wenwen couldn’t stop asking all sorts of question.

“You haven’t told us how you think we should eat those turtles. And…how do zombies excrete wastes? Ah, the others zombies all eat human beings, but why do you eat animals?”

Lin Qiao was a little speechless.?She talked very slowly, so without any other choice, she listened to Lin Wenwen’s endless questions silently. Fortunately, she was used to this. She decided to skip some of the questions, as the latter would always try figuring out the answers while asking the questions.

Long Qingying seemed to be used to that as well, as she followed the others upstairs expressionlessly.

“If…you…want…to…eat…use…my…water…” When they came to the fourth floor, Lin Qiao finally said to Lin Wenwen.

Lin Wenwen interrupted her and said, “Ah, do you mean we should boil the turtle with the water you provided? Can the water remove the virus? Really?”

Lin Qiao didn’t mind being interrupted, and nodded at her in affirmation.

“Okay, I get it!” Lin Wenwen said, “Although I feel that’s quite impossible, the boy looks healthy. So, I guess I’ll just believe you. And you won’t hurt us, will you?”

If Lin Qiao wanted to hurt them, why would she save them? Hence, she just gave a silent nod.

…

After returning to the zombies’ room, Lin Qiao closed the door, then turned to look at Xie Dong and said, “Say…”

‘Ask any question you want.’

The confused Xie Dong had been scanning Lin Qiao from head to toe with his eyes. So now, Lin Qiao had decided to let him ask all the questions he wanted to ask.

Meanwhile, Qiu Lili and Junjun looked at them bewilderedly.?The former walked to Xie Dong and looked at him from up to down, then took a circle around him. After confirming that he was really a zombie, she went back to her favorite chair by the window and sat down.

Lin Qiao only said a word, yet Xie Dong had figured out her whole sentence.?So, he made a writing gesture.

Lin Qiao immediately handed him the clipboard and pen, then looked around the room to find somewhere to sit down. There were two armchairs and a small stool in the room. The stool was moved to the window side and was occupied by Qiu Lili. Meanwhile, Junjun and Tongtong were both sitting on the bed. Hence, the two armchairs were empty.

She walked to the armchairs and sat down after choosing one, then pointed at the other one while looking at Xie Dong.?The latter came over and took a seat, then wrote—?‘Are you really Lu Tianyu?’

Reading that, Lin Qiao thought for a moment and then nodded, but soon shook her head.?Without a surprise, Xie Dong looked at her confusedly.?At the same time, Qiu Lili and Junjun were also looking at her curiously. Junjun leaned against the headboard while Tongtong was asleep by her side, covered by an old blanket.

They had read Xie Dong’s questions, and too wanted to know Lin Qiao’s story.

Junjun and Qiu Lili didn’t know that Lin Qiao was the name of a base leader. They might have heard about Chief Netherworld Fire, but they didn’t know her real name. Therefore, they didn’t pay extra attention to that name when Lin Qiao introduced herself to them.

But earlier on, Lin Qiao told another name to the group of people she had found, and that had confused the two.

Lin Qiao took over the clipboard, erased Xie Dong’s handwriting, and wrote—‘I’m Lin Qiao. But, this body belonged to Lu Tianyu. When I woke up, she was already dead. Otherwise, this body wouldn’t have become a zombie. I woke up as a zombie.’

There were lots of words to be written, so she wrote smaller letters. Having finished writing, she raised the clipboard to show it to the others.
