Yang Chao’s words sounded like he was going to give that woman to Tang He for him to have whatever fun he liked with her, as long as he captured her secretly. With surprise, Tang He looked at Yang Chao and said, “Eh? This woman is so pretty. Aren’t you gonna spend some great time with her yourself? Are you giving her to me?”

“I can give her to you,” said Yang Chao, “But, you have to leave the girl with the katana to me. I think I need a change.”

Tang He grinned wickedly and said, “Ah, so that’s the type you like now? Alright then!”

Yang Chao glanced at him blandly, then said, “You should wait until Wu Chengyue has brought his army out of the base to collect supplies for the winter. And, you can’t kill that woman, neither should you keep her for too long. I’ll put the zombie virus into her body, then let her become a zombie in the base. After that, we’ll be able to control those people with the excuse that they carried the virus. By then, it would be too late for Wu Chengyue to come back and save them even if he wants to.”

Tang He looked at him and laughed, “That’s such an evil plan, but I like it!”

Yang Chao drank his cup of coffee, then continued confidently, “According to the message I just received, Wu Chengyue will gather his army and leave in a couple of days too. So, you should stay patient.”

Tang He nodded and replied, “Alright. I won’t make any move until they’ve all left.”

In the square, Lin Qiao returned to the gathering place, then looked at the time and found that it was noon already. Except for Wu Chengyue’s three-hundred and fifty people, the others had all gathered in the square. As Li Zheng came back, all the others looked at her curiously. “How did it go? Did you find her?” asked Li Zheng.

Lin Qiao nodded and said, “We found her, but she isn’t in a very good condition.”

“What happened?” Women’s curiosity made Mrs. Lin and Cheng Wangxue walk over.

“She’s almost dead,” said Lin Qiao.

About two o’clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yunlong and Chen Yuting each drove an off-road vehicle to the square. Following behind the two vehicles were a few modified FAW 141, mostly filled with soldiers.

However, one FAW 141 was empty.

Seeing the vehicles, Lin Qiao said to Lin Hao, “The vehicles are here. Count the noses and get abroad.”

Li Hao turned around and yelled at the few others, “Li Zheng, count the noses and get onto that empty vehicle.” While speaking, he pointed at the empty FAW 141 at the back of the motorcade.

Li Zheng and his teammates quickly gathered about twenty people behind them, then told them to get onto the vehicle.

Lin Qiao didn’t move, but casually glanced around. Quite some people had their eyes on her and her people, but she didn’t know whom they worked for.

After everyone got aboard, the motorcade began moving toward an entrance of the base.

In a corner of the square, Xie Dong silently watched the motorcade leave, then walked toward the administration building nearby. Lin Wenwen stayed in the base. Although Yuan Tianxing and Long Qingying were with her, it was still hard to avoid all possible dangers. Therefore, Lin Wenwen had left Xie Dong in the base.

As long as he stayed silent, no one would find out about his true nature.

He had regained his power, and stepped into level-four. Although his level wasn’t high, as a zombie, he was sensitive to all the movements that the others made. Therefore, he should be able to protect Lin Wenwen secretly.

Lin Qiao walked toward a corner that no one was paying attention to, then disappeared.

No one could sense her movements; not even Xiao Yunlong and Lin Feng were able to track her. She would always show up whenever and wherever she was needed.

When the motorcade was miles away from the base, Lin Qiao showed up on the roof of the last vehicle. She silently followed behind the motorcade, as she had given the map to Lin Feng and told him about the location of the destination.

At this time in her space, Liu Jun was sitting on a couch, watching Tongtong play with a grass plane that Lin Qiao made for him. Qiu Lili was lazily lying on another couch, fiddling with her long hair.

All of a sudden, a wave of energy came from the lake, then a woman slowly walked out of the water. She was naked, shambling all the way. Her head was lowered, and her long wet hair covered her entire face.

“She’s up,” Qiu Lili immediately sat up from the couch, then leaned her head forward to sniff at the woman. After that, she said, “She has become a zombie, but her scent is a little weird. She isn’t like a normal zombie.”

Liu Jun thought for a moment, then said, “Her scent is the same as Xie Dong’s.”

Qiu Lili’s eyes glowed when she heard that. “Ah, yeah, they’re the same!”

At that moment, Lin Qiao suddenly showed up by the lakeside, watching the woman come out. Liu Jun stood up and walked to Qiu Lili’s large closet, then found a shirt and a pair of pants.

By now, Qiu Lili’s large closet didn’t only contain the clothes that Qiu Lili collected before, but also had many other clothes that Lin Qiao put in it.

A few more closets were places around the original one.

Liu Jun walked up behind Lin Qiao with the clothes and watched the woman who looked like a female ghost come out of the lake. She staggered to Lin Qiao, then stopped, her head remaining lowered, constantly dripping water. No life-force could be detected from her.

“Raise your head,” said Lin Qiao to her.

Shen Yujen slowly lifted her head and looked at Lin Qiao dully and confusedly. Her unfocused eyes were seen through the gaps between her hair locks.

Sensing her vibe, Lin Qiao learned that she was exactly the same kind of zombie as Xie Dong, and was also mysteriously connected with herself. That unexplainable connection might be the reason why Shen Yujen automatically walked to her once she came out of the lake.

Hearing Lin Qiao’s voice, Shen Yujen paused slightly, as if falling into deep thoughts. Gradually, her eyes brightened, showing hatred, anger, despair, love, surprise and all sorts of complicated and constantly changing feelings.

Her eyes were the same as Xie Dong’s; the white parts of those eyes remained. Her appearance didn’t change much, as she didn’t have black zombie eyes or periorbital dark circles. Except for her pale skin, she looked no different from healthy human beings.

However, Lin Qiao knew that she couldn’t talk anymore.

As she thought, Shen Yujen opened her mouth to try to say something, but quickly stopped, her eyes showing confusion.

“Roar…”

‘I…’

Lin Qiao nodded and said, “Alright, I get it. You still have your memories, and that’s good enough. At least I did what I promised Chen Yuting.”

Hearing her mentioning Chen Yuting, Shen Yujen showed tenderness in her eyes. She nodded and thought for a moment, then opened her mouth again.

“Roar…”

‘Thank you!’

Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “You don’t need to thank me. What I did was conditional. From now on, you and Chen Yuting will have to leave Sea City Base and follow me.”

Liu Jun handed the clothes to Shen Yujen, then said, “Have you found out what you are now?”

Shen Yujen saw Liu Jun’s eyes while taking over the clothes. She was puzzled slightly, but didn’t pay too much attention to those eyes. After hearing Liu Jun’s question, she stopped dressing herself and nodded.
