Zombie Sister Strategy

Reading Lin Qiao’s note, Junjun was still confused. At first, she couldn’t understand it, but a few seconds later, she suddenly raised her head while popping her pale gray eyes and staring at the former.

‘What do you mean? Can you change your body and face? Well, maybe you can change your face, but the body?’

Lin Qiao erased the handwriting on the clipboard, then continued writing, ‘Lu Tianyu was the original owner of this body. She was the mistress of a leader of the Sea City Base . But one day, that man got sick of her, so he threw her into a crowd of zombies.’

Finishing writing, she raised the clipboard to show those words to Junjun, who wore an utterly bewildered look. Lin Qiao then took the clipboard back, erased the words, and continued writing, ‘When I woke up, I became what you had seen before.’

Junjun didn’t know how to respond. She felt that her brain wasn’t working at all.

‘Do you mean that you actually borrowed someone else’s body? No wonder your family sees you as a stranger. I thought your family will be able to recognize you,since your face has been fixed. I didn’t know that it’s not your face.’

Suddenly, Junjun felt sorry for Lin Qiao, because she needed to pretend to be a stranger in front of her family.

Sensing her thoughts, Lin Qiao smiled carelessly and wrote, ‘It’s alright, as long as I can be around them.’

At that moment, she heard someone call her name from her space. Hearing that, she remembered that she had another zombie in her space.

‘I want you to meet a friend’ she wrote on the clipboard, and after showing it to Junjun, she flashed into her space under the latter’s curious gaze, showing up right beside Xie Dong.

Xie Dong was now able to move freely. After Lin Qiao left, he sat on the chair by the lakeside and rested for a while. He discovered that the space had become much larger than before. The size of the lake and the grassland hadn’t changed, but the space was added with a strange patch of woods.

He saw the small stove nearby, which had a pot on it. With curiosity, he stood up and began wandering in Lin Qiao’s space.

He didn’t see Chief Wu’s daughter, but there were so many new things in the base. The small space which was accidentally gained from the space-powered man who used to be his teammate had moved a long distance away. On the grassland, those strawberry plants were thriving next to some vegetable plants.

Besides the plants was a small-hill-sized pile of mutant pumpkins and potatoes.

‘Why did she collect all these? Are these for eating?’ He wondered. Xie Dong pictured Lin Qiao chewing pumpkins and potatoes and felt very uncomfortable.

Apart from the vegetables, he also saw a lot of luxurious and exquisite furniture pieces, and found that the old bed was gone. He wondered where these furniture pieces came from.

After taking a tour of Lin Qiao’s space, the look on his face became quite strange. At last, he finally roared at the misty sky.

“Roar!”

‘Lin Qiao!’

In about ten seconds, Lin Qiao showed up.

Seeing her bald head, Xie Dong was dumbfounded again. If he didn’t recognize her from those familiar dark eyes and her vibe, he might have jumped backward.

He raised a hand to point at Lin Qiao’s head. He wanted to laugh, but didn’t know if he should.

Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and said, “Laugh…if…you…want…”

Hearing those words, Xie Dong, who had been trying to keep himself from laughing out, gave a big grin. He didn’t utter any laughter, but the grin on his face was obvious.

Lin Qiao dragged his arm and exited the space. In the next moment, the two of them showed up in the room.

Once out, Xie Dong automatically fixed his eyes on Junjun and Tongtong. After figuring out that they were a level-one female zombie and a human kid, he sighed in relief.

Junjun had been preparing herself, yet when Xie Dong showed up suddenly, she was still startled. She involuntarily held Tongtong in her arms, as if that was the only way she could feel safe.

Then, she carefully sensed Xie Dong’s vibe and discovered that he wasn’t a human being, but a zombie just like Lin Qiao and herself.

‘But his face…’ she wondered. Xie Dong’s eyes looked no different from those of human beings. His face was clean, without large black circles under his eyes. He looked just like a healthy human being, and nothing like a zombie.

However, judging by his vibe, he was a zombie indeed, and that too at a higher level than Junjun herself.

Lin Qiao raised a hand toward Junjun, then spoke to Xie Dong, “Junjun…”After that, she pointed at Tongtong and introduced him, “Tongtong…”

Seeing the strange zombie, Tongtong leaned his head toward Junjun timidly, putting his arms around her neck while looking at Xie Dong curiously.

Lin Qiao then pointed at Xie Dong and introduced him to Junjun, “Xie…Dong…”

Lin Qiao’s voice was dry and hoarse, but she pronounced the words clearly. Xie Dong understood what she said, but felt that she talked way too slow.

However, talking slowly was better than being unable to talk anyway.

‘Why can she talk though?’ Xie Dong thought, ‘Where are the scars on her face? And, why is she bald? Well, she might have shaved her head because her hair looked like straws.’

Then, he turned to look at Junjun and Tongtong. The female zombie was at a lower level than him, so she wasn’t dangerous in his eyes. Her behavior was a little weird though, as she was carrying a human kid.

However, Xie Dong didn’t care about why Junjun was holding the kid the whole time. What he cared about were the changes that had happened to Lin Qiao.

“Whooo… aw?”

‘Why can you talk?’ Xie Dong growled at Lin Qiao to ask. Hearing his question, Junjun raised her head to look at Lin Qiao as well. She had guessed that Lin Qiao’s recovery had something to do with the lake in her space, but didn’t know how exactly did that happen.

She was very curious about how Lin Qiao was healed and suddenly able to talk. Lin Qiao thought for a moment, then wrote, ‘I was healed in the lake, by the energy from the lake.’

Xie Dong looked at her yearningly. Lin Qiao knew that he wanted to be able to talk too. However, she hadn’t tried helping other zombies to heal in the lake. She figured that she needed to talk to that weird vine plant in the lake before letting her zombie friends down in the lake. Otherwise, they might end up like that level-four wind-powered zombie.

Without negotiating with the vine plant, the lake might not fix Xie Dong’s voice; even worse, it might drain his zombie nucleus. If that happened, he would lose more than he could gain.

She dropped her eyes and wrote on the clipboard, ‘There’s a creature in my lake. You’ll need its permission if you want to be healed, or…’

While writing, she glanced at Junjun. The latter had been staying in her space for most of the time, so without a doubt, she knew about that vine plant.

As she expected, Junjun flinched slightly, looking at Lin Qiao dreadfully and helplessly.

Xie Dong hadn’t noticed what was down in the lake. Before he turned into a zombie, he had darted into the lake unconsciously. Back at that time, it was the vine plant which had absorbed his energy and thrown him up to the water surface.
