Zombie Sister Strategy

“Call Lili Sister. Don’t call her zombie,” said Lin Qiao to Viney.

‘Okay,’ Viney responded.

Lin Qiao stood beside the two buckets, narrowed her eyes to look at the energy in the water. After quite a while, she finally discovered that the energy was seeping into the bodies of the two zombies at a very slow speed.

She thought for a moment, then turned and found a cup. She walked to the lake and filled the cup with water, then came back to the female zombie, who was still washing her face.

“Alright, alright, you may stop,” said Lin Qiao to the female zombie who had already cleaned her face. As most of the dirt on the female zombie’s face had been washed off, the scars on her face looked more obvious than before. Some skin and flesh on her forehead was missing, with the bone in that area exposed. Her eyes were sunk deeply, and the dark circles under her eyes were as dark as that of a panda.

Lin Qiao gave the zombie a closer look and found that her face was rather delicate, and she looked quite young.

Lin Qiao held her chin, pinched her cheeks, and opened her mouth.

“Roar!” The female zombie uttered a deep and muffled roar, but still obediently opened her mouth. An awful smell was released from her mouth as her sharp teeth were bared.

Lin Qiao turned her head slightly. As the smell from her mouth faded a little, Lin Qiao poured the cup of water into her mouth.

“Gu…ro…Aw…Go…ro…” At first, the female zombie didn’t want to swallow the water and let out weird sound from her throat. However, Lin Qiao forced her to drink the whole cup of water.

As she prepared to fetch the second cup of water, she suddenly detected some difference in the female zombie.

“Whooo…Roar…”

‘I want more…I want more…’

She was only repeating the three words, but it still surprised Lin Qiao.

‘Does she want more of the water? The zombie actually wants to drink the lake water? Why didn’t Qiu Lili and Junjun want to drink it?’ Lin Qiao wondered. She narrowed her eyes and saw the thick green energy rolling in the bucket.

Was it because of the energy? This time, Viney seemed to have grown much stronger, and the energy in the lake had risen by many times.

“Roarrr…” As Lin Qiao made no move, the female zombie got a little anxious and roared at her. Lin Qiao looked at her speechlessly; the bone-deep wound on her head was especially obvious.

‘You’re getting impatient. You’re not like the kids who can’t get the candy they want…Well, alright, the IQ of level three and four zombies is indeed like that of human children,’

Lin Qiao relaxed her grip, then turned to fetch more water from the lake. When she came back, she saw that the female zombie drinking the water in the bucket.

“Oi, don’t drink that! If you drink this, how are you gonna bathe?” Lin Qiao hurriedly lifted the zombie’s face. While pouring the water in the cup into her mouth, she continued, “Drinking excessively won’t help you. You’ll drink only two cups for today. Tomorrow, when you have absorbed all the energy, you’ll drink more. You’re not allowed to drink from the bucket.”

‘This is your bathing water. Do you know how dirty you are?’

Lin Qiao looked at the female zombie, wondering if she would wake up one day and remember this…

As the zombie drank the second cup of water, Lin Qiao said to her, “Alright, no more for today! It will be a waste for you to drink more.” After that, she turned to refill the cup and made the male zombie drink two cups as well. The male zombie also looked young, seeming to have been in his twenties.

He reacted much slower than the female zombie. After drinking the first cup of water, he didn’t ask for more.

After pouring the second cup of water into the male zombie’s mouth, Lin Qiao turned her head to find the female zombie drinking the bath water again.

Somehow, it reminded Lin Qiao of the time when she bathed in the lake, and felt a little disgusted.

“You’re drinking again! Stop drinking!” Even though she felt a little disgusted, she yelled at the female zombie who was still drinking.

“Roar…” The female zombie stopped. She was unhappy, but she didn’t lower her head to drink from the bucket again.

Lin Qiao took a circle around the two zombies, then reached out a hand to pinch their muscles. Their muscles were hard, but weirdly elastic, like hard rubber. Then, she turned and said to Viney, “Viney, keep an eye on them. Don’t let them run out.”

Viney waved a few vines in the water to let her know that it had received the order.

Then, Lin Qiao turned and left the space. As she turned around, she saw the giant cage again. Earlier on, she had asked Long Qingying to make this cage for keeping those large turtles. By this time, there were still a few turtles in it.

She had told Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying that they could all eat these turtles, but no one believed her.

Seeing these turtles, Lin Qiao realized that she hadn’t eaten anything for days. So, she squatted by the cage, looking at the few turtles which had piled up in the cage.

At that point, Liu Jun walked out of the hotel, with Tong Tong carried in her arms.

“You’re not hungry, are you?” Seeing Lin Qiao squatting by the cage, Liu Jun chuckled and asked.

“A little…” Lin Qiao nodded and said.

“How long has it been since you ate last time? It has not even been a week,” said Liu Jun.

Lin Qiao turned to look at her and said, “Aren’t you hungry? Before I saw them, I didn’t really feel like eating. But they’re useless here, so I decided to boil them and eat them.”

“Boil?” Liu Jun looked at her with surprise, saying, “You eat cooked food now?”

“The cooked turtle will be for him,” Lin Qiao pointed at Tong Tong and said, “Turtle soup is nourishing.”

“Ah!” Liu Jun looked at her son, then responded.

Lin Qiao glanced at her, then turned back to lift the cage and got inside.

Bang!

She put down the cage and walked toward those large turtles. Afterward, she picked up a turtle, then disappeared from the cage.

Liu Jun thought that she was going to cook the turtle in her space, but unexpectedly, she showed up in the next moment and got out of the cage. Lin Qiao walked toward Junjun while saying, “Let’s get back to our room first. I need to find some salt from the kitchen.”

Earlier on, Du Yuanxing and the others had found some well-preserved refined salt. The shelf life of this batch of salt was five years, so even though five years had passed since the apocalypse, the salt hadn’t expired for long.

In this era, safe salt was precious. As for the expiration date, that wasn’t important.

“Alright,” Liu Jun nodded, then followed Lin Qiao to the hotel.

Lin Qiao found the kitchen of the restaurant in the hotel. As the solar power was back, some kitchen equipment was functional. Therefore, Lin Feng and his people would cook in the kitchen, then bring the food upstairs to eat, or eat in the restaurant.

Thanks to Lin Qiao and Qiu Lili, no zombie dared to come into the hotel. Even the area hundreds of meters around the hotel was zombie-free. Therefore, Lin Feng and his people had gradually relaxed their vigilance and begun doing things freely in the hotel.
