“Space-powered zombies can largely benefit space-powered people, so I guess even if there are some superpowered zombies out there. they’ll be hunted soon,” Lin Qiao said, hearing which, Liu Jun nodded.
“I heard that you’re gonna trade that woman for five level-six zombie nuclei. Is that true?” Liu Jun asked.
Everybody had known about what happened last night. As a Deputy Chief, Yan Fangyu had actually done something like that. This kind of thing never happened before. Normally, she just appeared to be a sophisticated person, and not a scheming one.
“Hehe… Do you know why she did that? Because that’s one of her tactics. She thought that no one would find out what she did last night. When people would get up in the morning, they’d find that the guard had gone missing, but no one would suspect her,” Lin Qiao said smilingly. “She looks like a good person because she only does bad things very secretly, and she knows where the bottom line is. On one hand, she won’t make it too serious, and on the other hand, people tend to turn blind eyes to the bad things that she has done due to her pretty appearance and high status. Also, many people have been willingly cleaning up the mess for her.”
She was such a beautiful woman, so there must be a few super fans of hers in her base. Those people had been protecting her like a goddess.
“Do you mean that even though she’s been doing some bad things in her base, those things weren’t incurably awful? And, some people have been secretly cleaning up the mess for her, which is why she’s able to maintain her positive image?” Liu Jun paused briefly, then figured it out, also glancing at Shen Yujen.
Lin Qiao nodded and responded, “You’re right, and she’s clearly aware of that. She smartly grasped the bottom line. Besides, imprisoning a few men can’t be as bad as imprisoning women. She’s a Deputy Chief after all. She has her power.”
Hearing that, Liu Jun thought for a moment and then laughed, “Ah, I finally know why she got caught this time. She underestimated us. On one hand, she was confident that no one would spot her, and on the other hand, she believed that we wouldn’t be able to do anything to her even if she got caught, as she’s a Deputy Chief from Sea City Base. That’s why she refused to admit what she had done when you caught her. I guess she thought that as long as Sea City People arrived at our place and gave us some pressure, the problem would be solved easily.”
“You guessed right. That’s exactly what she thought last night. I read her mind. That woman is a schemer. However, she encountered me this time, hah!” Lin Qiao chuckled.
“So, she’s that kind of person. Thankfully, I’m not from Sea City Base, or I’d feel so disappointed… Right, Jen?” Liu Jun turned to Shen Yujen and said with pity. The latter only nodded unhappily.
She couldn’t have imagined that Yan Fangyu, the idol of all female Sea City Base members, was actually so evil in private. She suddenly felt that Yan Fangyu was even more disgusting than Lu Tianyu.
Shen Yujen had no idea that Lin Qiao, who was right in front of her, was also Lu Tianyu whom she was thinking about. The members of the zombie group had been calling her Lin Qiao, but the others in the base had all been calling her Miss. Lu.
That had actually been confusing her, but she never asked around about it.
“Oh, you’re thinking about Lu Tianyu. I need to clarify that… The reason why Lu Tianyu’s reputation was so awful was because Yan Fangyu had contributed quite greatly to it,” Lin Qiao read Shen Yujen’s mind and then realized that the previous owner of her body had suffered quite some losses because of Yan Fangyu, but never knew about it.
Liu Jun glanced at Lin Qiao with a weird look and then smiled.
She understood that Lin Qiao was clearly trying to clear Lu Tianyu’s name. Lu Tianyu had indeed done a lot of annoying things, but at least, she never got people killed.
As for being with men, she was much franker than Yan Fangyu, in a distasteful way though.
That was her way of surviving though. She wouldn’t have survived the five years if she didn’t act that way, as she didn’t have a superpower.
“Alright. I can’t believe she did that to a commoner like Lu Tianyu. She’s a Deputy Chief after all,” Liu Jun said expressionlessly.
“I think Wu Chengyue will arrive this afternoon. Alright, let’s stop talking and start working… Oi, you! You’re a zombie! Why are you biting the tree…” Lin Qiao abruptly roared at a zombie which was opening up the uncultivated land.
Liu Jun and Shen Yujen turned that way as well and saw a level-three zombie biting a wrist-thick tree with its head tilted.
“Hah… Maybe it’s starving,” Liu Jun laughed.
“No matter how hungry they are, they can’t be interested in trees. Besides, the zombie stomachs are dead. Their appetite for human flesh is simply an instinctive reaction,” Lin Qiao gave her a glance and replied.
“Maybe it’s because you hadn’t fed meat to them for a long time,” Liu Jun covered her mouth and chuckled.
“Why would I feed meat to them? They don’t eat meat. They only eat human flesh! Do you want me to feed them with human beings?” Lin Qiao glared at Liu Jun. The latter was clearly teasing her.
“You see, they’re ill, because you wouldn’t feed them meat!” Liu Jun pointed at that zombie who seemed to be very confused after hearing Lin Qiao’s yelling.
“What kind of illness do they have?” Lin Qiao asked.
“Mental diseases!” Liu Jun replied.
Lin Qiao stayed silent, and so did Shen Yujen, who had been watching the two of them.
…
In the Agriculture Department of Sea City Base, Kong Qingming pushed open Lu Tianyi’s office while saying, “Oi, I got a piece of interesting news. Do you want to hear it?”
In the office, Lu Tianyi was talking to Zheng Xiaonian about work. Both of them turned to Kong Qingming curiously.
“What news?” Lu Tianyi asked.
Kong Qingming closed the door, then walked over and threw two pieces of papers on the desk.
“It happened in Upper City District. Miss. Yan is having some serious trouble this time,” said Kong Qingming smilingly. His pretty face wore an excited look.
“Huh?” Lu Tianyi picked up the papers and browsed. The first part of the text was about what happened as well as the newest development, and the last part was a personal file.
“She killed a man? In Upper City Base? That woman actually killed one of their men in their base? Is her brain damaged? Did she think that she was still in Sea City Base, and that killing one or two people wouldn’t affect her at all?” After reading the text and the victim’s file, Lu Tianyi frowned and said with discontentment.
“What? Deputy Chief Nian killed a man in Big Sister’s place? She killed one of Big Sister’s men?” Zheng Xiaonian looked at Lu Tianyi with surprise.
