Xie Dong carried the powerless Huo Antong to Liu Jun and threw him to the ground.

Liu Jun held Tongtong as she glanced at Huo Antong, then looked at Xie Dong and asked him, “You infected him?”

Xie Dong nodded silently.

“In fact, you could have killed him directly. He has committed a capital crime by hurting my Tongtong!” said Liu Jun, her eyes showing the intention of killing.

In any base, hurting children was a capital crime. Earlier on, Chen Hao kidnapped Lin Xiaolu and Tongtong, getting himself killed for that… Not to mention the fact that the Xiaolu and Tongtong were the only two children in the entire base.

Huo Antong, who was feeling hot and cold at the same time, heard their conversation. He didn’t feel right, and Liu Jun’s words reminded him of something.

People would feel hot and cold at the same time when they were infected by the zombie virus. Their bodies would gradually become cold, and then they would lose their sense of temperature.

He suddenly turned to look at his own arm. Earlier on, Xie Dong had scratched his arm. At the moment, that wound had turned black and started rotting, giving out a bad smell.

“You… You… You’re not human!” He suddenly turned to Xie Dong with fright.

But soon, he doubted himself. Xie Dong looked nothing like a zombie. His face was undamaged, and his eyes weren’t dark. His mouth wasn’t cracked, and he had no dark circles under his eyes. His skin was clean, with no scars. He was a little pale, but still looked exactly like a human being.

More importantly, he could talk! How could zombies possibly talk!

“No… You’re a man, not a zombie…” Huo Antong murmured to himself, the coldness and dizziness blurring his mind.

Liu Jun looked at Huo Antong’s face that was turning bluish. A pair of dark circles had emerged under his eyes. She didn’t want to say another word to him, but drew her gun and pointed at his forehead.

Bang!

After putting the gun away, Liu Jun put two fingers into her mouth and made a whistle.

Soon, a figure showed up before her.

“Dig out his energy nucleus, then throw him out of the base,” said Liu Jun to the level-four zombie. Then, she pointed at the dead body on the ground and added, “Do it secretly.”

The zombie nodded and walked to the dead body, lifting it and quickly leaving her sight. After that, Liu Jun and Xie Dong turned and headed toward Base Number Two.

At the same time, Lin Hao was sitting in Lin Qiao’s office, talking to her repeatedly, “Let me give you a check-up. How am I supposed to come up with a solution for your condition if you don’t let me give you a check-up?”

Lin Qiao didn’t even raise her head to look at him. While reading the file in her hand, she responded with, “What solution can you possibly find? Didn’t you just say that my power will come back after I give birth to the baby? Let’s just wait for the baby to come out then. What is the rush?”

Lin Hao said, “You need to let me record your condition. What if the same thing happens to someone else in the future? The other zombies aren’t as special as you are…”

“Alright, alright, I’ll come to you when I have time,” Lin Qiao raised her head and said impatiently.

Lin Hao pulled a long face and said, “You’ll never have time. You’ll find more work to do when you have time. Don’t I know about you?”

Lin Qiao sighed and leaned against the back of her chair, “Alright. I get it! Seriously, I’ll come to you when I have time.”

While speaking, she put a hand on her belly, a sweet sense of satisfaction flashing across her heart.

Lin Hao folded his arms, then rested his chin on a palm as he looked at his sister while saying, “For now, you look fine, but we don’t know how long this condition will last.”

“Alright, go back to the medical department. There is ton of work for you to do over there. Do you really have time to waste in here?” Lin Qiao started to ask him to leave.

“The hospital is busy, but I’m not the only doctor,” Lin Hao shrugged and said, “None of the other patients are as important as you.”

“You may have time, but I don’t. Stop bothering me. Just go, go!” Lin Qiao waved a hand at him, then sat straight and started reading the file again.

Lin Hao thought for a moment, then said, “Oh, you haven’t visited Chief Wu’s daughter, have you? I think you should go and see her when you have time. She’s not in good condition now. I heard from Chief Wu that she was doing a lot better than before because of you. But recently, her illness has attacked again. Perhaps, she’ll open herself up to you.”

“Ling Ling?” On hearing that, Lin Qiao raised her head to look at Lin Hao and asked, “Her illness?”

Lin Hao nodded and explained, “Yes, she had herself protected again. Except for her father, she won’t let anyone come near her. No one else is allowed into her room. It’s pretty bad.”

Lin Qiao sighed and said, “It’s because of what happened to Wu Chengyue earlier, isn’t it?”

“Yes, it is,” Lin Hao nodded.

“Alright, I’ll visit her,” Lin Qiao said.

Hearing that, Lin Hao stood up and glanced at his sister, then left while thinking. In fact, he had made a lot of plans for Lin Qiao’s condition. None of them were put in use though. Thankfully, her baby had been growing healthily, without showing anything wrong.

Lin Qiao’s condition was unique, and there were no other examples to refer. Therefore, Lin Hao wasn’t certain about what to do with her.

Lin Qiao sighed with relief as Lin Hao finally left. But, thinking about Ling Ling’s condition, she frowned slightly.

She thought that Ling Ling was healing. But, it turned out that she underestimated autism. She should really find some time to visit the little girl.

That night, she returned to where she lived. Once in, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“What are you doing here? You should be in the hospital with Ling Ling.” She looked at the man that she wanted to see the least in the world and said. He always came to her place at any time he wanted, no matter what she said to try to stop him. What a shameless and bossy man!

“Can you please go and see her? She’s… not doing well,” Wu Chengyue looked at her and said despondently. Even though Ling Ling’s condition had provided him with an excuse to come to talk to the zombie lady openly, it still burned his heart. Thankfully, Ling Ling’s condition wasn’t entirely bad yet.

“I get it. I’ll find some time to see her these days. Is there anything else that I can do for you? If not, you may leave. The door is that way. Show yourself out. You can go to my office if you need my help instead of sneaking into my home like a thief, okay?” Lin Qiao looked at him disdainfully while walking to the tea-table nearby and pouring herself a glass of water.
