1084 Different Heavy Work

Lin Qiao was wearing a field suit, with no hat. Her long hair reached the middle of her thigh, swaying along with her footsteps before she got into her modified off-road car; her driver was still Duan Juan.

Following behind her car were three off-road cars. On those cars were Lin Kui, who was at level-seven; Mo, Ye Qingxian, Xia Ri, Nan Jin, Six, who were all at level-six; and Jingyan, Yan Xiao, Liu Mingsong, and Wan Lizchong—who was also called Chong—who were at level-five. Apart from them, about ten zombies selected from the zombie army was also in the cars.

Lin Qiao didn't bring the zombie army with her. The group of high-leveled zombies that she brought was strong enough to bring Sky Fire Base trouble.

Qiu Lili hopped on top of the fence wall and watched Lin Qiao's motorcade leave safely. Then, she turned and headed toward Mount Wu. Before long, she showed up before the series of cabins at the farm.

Liu Jun, who was weeding in the field sensed her presence and stood up, then dusted her hands off and walked toward the cabins.

"What's wrong? What brought you here? Has Chief left?" She walked to the cabins and saw Qiu Lili finding herself a stool to sit on, letting her long ponytails fall on the ground. She walked to one of the cabins and washed her hands in the bucket by the wall. Then, she dried her hands and walked back to Qiu Lili, putting the girl's long hair behind her body.

The girl seemed upset, not even remembering to keep her hair clean. She was such a clean freak normally.

"She just left. How come she upgrades so fast? Hm, you've been upgrading quickly too. You're at level-five now," Qiu Lili raised her head and looked at Liu Jun as she sighed and said.

Liu Jun smiled and said, "She's not like us. It seems that her destiny is designed by the world. We died and then woke up as zombies, and she did too, but in a different way. Also, I sensed something special from the lake in her space. I have a feeling that she is not only the savior of the zombies like us but, is also the hope of mankind."

While speaking, she found herself a stool as well. "She spent a year to become a zombie emperor," she continued, "and she built this base. Currently, no one can threaten her and us, or this base. Thankfully, her hatred didn't beat her sanity. She still has family to help her stay clear-minded, to face the world with the right mindset and remember who she really is."

Liu Jun couldn't even imagine what would her and her son turn into if Lin Qiao didn't find them.

Liu Jun's words made Qiu Lili think. She blinked as she nodded and said, "Yeah, I was all alone before I met her. I was so lonely, so bored. Sometimes, I wondered why I still had human memory as I had already become a zombie. I couldn't break my human bottom lines to do the things that zombies liked to do, neither could I live a human life."

Back then, she always wondered why she was living like that, and what she should be doing. Was there anything that she wanted to do? She had no one to talk to. She was actually a girl who liked to live with other people. She liked to have somebody to rely on.

She had no idea what to do.

"It's because you are too innocent. Look at Mo Yan. Isn't he the same as us? He was alone too. His hatred crushed his human bottom line, so he became what he did," Liu Jun rubbed Qiu Lili's head and said.

Hearing Mo Yan's name, Qiu Lili pouted and said, "I don't like him. He's seeing himself as a zombie, so he ate human hearts."

Liu Jun shook her head and said, "He ate human hearts to get energy. If he didn't do that, his face and body wouldn't be able to stay so undamaged."

Mo Yan didn't look exactly the same as normal zombies. He only ate human hearts and not any other body parts.

"Oh, I think he's still alive. Where did he go?" Qiu Lili asked a question. She hadn't heard anything about Mo Yan ever since Lin Qiao returned from Huaxia Base.

Liu Jun shrugged and said, "How am I supposed to know? Maybe you should ask Chief about it. She might have an answer."

Qiu Lili sighed, "Qiaoqiao has left. Did that awful zombie die?"

Liu Jun shook her head and said, "I'm not sure. He's a zombie emperor after all. I don't think he can die so easily."

Qiu Lili thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true."

Neither of them knew that the zombie they talked about was resting and healing in Lin Qiao's space.

"Oh, what's going on between you and Lin Kui? You two are pretty close recently," Liu Jun said to Qiu Lili jokingly.

Qiu Lili's cheeks grew red. She turned her face away awkwardly as she didn't dare to look at Liu Jun, "Nothing is going on. I just like him in his cat panther shape. I like big cats."

Liu Jun smiled a meaningful smile as she nodded and said loudly, "Oh, you like big cats."

'Why don't you look in my eyes and say it, if it's that simple? You're shy, aren't you?' she thought.

"Eh-hem, why are you smiling like that? I'm not wrong!" Qiu Lili couldn't stand the look in her eyes. So, she turned and glared at Liu Jun anxiously.

"Alright, alright, enough kidding! I'm going to the field to work. Would you like to come and have some fun?" Liu Jun stood up and said to her smilingly.

"No, it's dirty!" Qiu Lili turned and snorted.

…

On the other side, Shen Yujen sent the files that Lin Qiao had read last night to Yuan Tianxing, then took a detour to Chen Yuting's office.

With a heavy heart, she walked to the door of Chen Yuting's office. "Mrs. Shen," the guard by the door saluted to her. He then raised a hand to knock on the door, but Shen Yujen stopped him.

"Let me." While speaking, she knocked on the door gently.

"Come in," Chen Yuting's voice was heard from the office.

Shen Yujen opened the door and walked in.

Sitting behind the desk, Chen Yuting was surprised to see his wife, "Jen? What brought you here? Has Chief left?"

Shen Yujen closed the door, then walked to the couch and sat down as she nodded and said, "Yeah, she left just now. I remember that you have a lot of work to do today, so I came here to see if you need help."

Chief wasn't in the base, and her work had been handed to Deputy Chief Yuan. Therefore, Shen Yujen now had some free time.

Chen Yuting smiled, "I'm not very busy, actually. But today, I need to go to Base Number Two to see the construction site there. Do you want to come?"

"Yeah."

Chen Yuting spent a short while managing the files on his desk, then stood up and walked out of the office together with Shen Yujen. By the door, he abruptly paused, then looked at Shen Yujen and said with concern, "Jen, is there something on your mind?"
