Zombie Sister Strategy

Lu Tianyi glanced at Lin Qiao, then asked abruptly, “Are you no match for the level-six zombie out there?”

Lin Qiao rolled her eyes. Lu Tianyi didn’t see her expression, but he somehow felt being despised. He thought for a moment, then felt that he had guessed right. ‘If she could defeat the zombie king, she wouldn’t need to hide in here with us. But, she saved all of us, and that’s already amazing.”

However, he had another question, “So what should we do now? Stay in your space until it has left?”

Lin Qiao glanced at the group of people who had been waiting for their turn to drink water, then walked to Xie Dong and patted him. He looked at her and saw her point at the area with the kitchenware. Some cups and bowls were placed there.

Xie Dong nodded and walked over. He understood Lin Qiao’s meaning: she wanted him to give those people some cups for them to drink water.

Lin Qiao walked to that area along with Xie Dong, picked up a stainless steel plate, then turned and crooked a finger toward Lu Tianyi. After that, she walked toward the strawberry field. Maybe because of her space, those strawberry plants were thriving more and more! Those plants even bore a lot of new strawberries, even though the strawberry season had passed.

The first batch of strawberries had all been picked long ago, some of which were eaten by the rabbit and the few mice.

Lin Qiao walked over with the plate, then bent over to pick the ripe strawberries and put them in the plate. Meanwhile, she talked to Lu Tianyi, who was two meters away behind her.

“It…will…hold…a…grudge…Guard…here…” Lin Qiao talked very slowly, so Lu Tianyi had guessed her meaning even before she finished.

Was she trying to say the level-six zombie king would stay in this area? But, why? And, what grudge would it hold?

“What grudge? Does it know that we’re all in your space, and that you’re here too so you can’t leave? Can it understand all this?” Lu Tianyi asked confusedly.

Lin Qiao squatted to pick a strawberry. Hearing his question, she paused, then put the strawberry in the plate and turned to look at him while saying, “It…is…as…smart…as…you…”

The zombie king could even be smarter than Lu Tianyi. Whatever Lu Tianyi could guess out, it could too. Besides, the group of people all disappeared suddenly without showing a sign of leaving, so the zombie king would have figured that Lin Qiao had a space.

Lu Tianyi didn’t know what to say. He turned to glance at the others who were about twenty meters away, then turned back and asked with a low voice, “How…did you die?”

Lin Qiao raised her head to look at him. She spent a moment reviewing Lu Tianyu’s memory before death, then said, “Knocked…out…Thrown…into…zombie…crowd…”

While finishing this one sentence, she had picked quite a few strawberries; soon, about fifteen large strawberries were put in the plate. She stood up and walked toward Xie Dong and the others while carrying the plate while Lu Tianyi pondered over Lin Qiao’s words.

‘She was knocked out and thrown into a zombie crowd? How? Did those people hit her from behind or directly turned against her and attacked? The three were all superpowered while she was an ordinary human being. So, they should have been able to put her down effortlessly,’ Lu Tianyi thought. ‘But why knock her out and throw into a zombie crowd instead of killing her?’

‘If she weren’t dead but only fainted, she must have woken up because of the pain while being torn and bitten by the zombies. And she woke up to find herself being chewed by a giant group of zombies.’

‘How terrible was that!’

With these thoughts, Lu Tianyi looked at Lin Qiao’s back with a complicated look. Meanwhile, he wondered how she became a conscious zombie.

‘Did she eat any human beings when she just turned into a zombie?’ All sorts of questions lingered in Lu Tianyi’s head.

Lin Qiao walked to the bucket. The ones who finished drinking had all moved to the side and sat on the ground. She took over the water scoop from a man’s hand, then filled it with water and poured all the strawberries in. After that, she handed the scoop to those people.

“Eat…”

By that time, the group of people had all discovered that Lin Qiao’s voice and way of talking was a little strange. However, they didn’t ask any questions, but looked at the extra large strawberries in the water scoop with confusion.

Was she telling them to eat these mutant strawberries? No way!

Lin Qiao looked at them in the eyes, then nodded to confirm. She abruptly pointed at Lu Tianyi who was slowly walking over, then said, “He…ate…”

‘Your boss has eaten one, and he’s fine. What are you afraid of?’

Hearing that, the group of people all turned to look at Lu Tianyi with surprise.

“Boss, you ate these?”

“No way! Boss, why did you eat it?”

“Boss, are you sure that these are edible?”

Lu Tianyi walked over as he silently looked at them, then at Lin Qiao. He wasn’t sure, and he didn’t eat that strawberry voluntarily. He was partially forced to eat it! But at least, he was fine at the time. He couldn’t tell if the strawberry was safe, or the poison was yet to attack.

As these people were scared, Lin Qiao didn’t force them to eat, but handed the water scoop to Xie Dong. Then, she shrugged toward those people and turned to sit in the chair nearby.

‘Eat these or not. I’m not the one who’s about to be starved to death anyway,’ she thought.

The group of people were surprised. They didn’t understand why Lin Qiao offered them some mutant strawberries. But, as they had been starved for two days, they couldn’t help but keep glancing at the plate in Xie Dong’s hands, even though they had all been trying to tell themselves to calm down first.

They looked at Lu Tianyi, hoping to hear from him that the strawberries were fine. But in the meanwhile, they worryingly wondered if any changes had happened to his body.

Under the gazes of the group of people, Lu Tianyi finally started talking, “I’ve indeed eaten a few. I haven’t sensed any change in my body yet. But, I’m not sure what will happen in an hour, or a day or two.”

“According to experiments,” said Kong Qingming, “A human being bitten by a zombie will turn into a zombie in three minutes after death. If this person is weak, he or she will die very soon, and if this person is relatively strong, this process will be longer. I think we all know that.”

The others nodded, as what he said was indeed a common sense.

Kong QingmingQingming continued, “We don’t know how long it will take for a person to turn into a zombie after he or she eats some mutant plants or animals. But eventually, this person will die and turn into a zombie.”

He was trying to say that anyone who ate any mutant plants or animals would all become a zombie in the end, sooner or later. Some mutant plants and animals could kill people in three seconds, but sometimes, that process could last for three days, thirty days, or even three months.
