Du Yuanxing and Long Qingying silently watched Lin Qiao and Qiu Lili leaping across the building roofs. As human beings, they were only able to run down this building with their legs.
As the two human beings ran downstairs, Lin Qiao had already approached the square. She stopped on top of a building next to the square and switched into the invisible state. After that, she leaped down the building and moved toward the few vehicles.
After all the zombies on the square were cleaned, the people in the vehicles got out and formed small groups, moving toward the surrounding corners.
"Eh, I just have to pee. Finally..."
"Same here..."
"We'll be entering Sea City if we don't make a move now. I wonder what Chief Yang is thinking. Why do we have to catch them alive? Why don't simply kill them all?"
"What do you know? In fact, he doesn't really want Lin Feng and his family to die. Perhaps, those people are still useful."
"For what purpose? Does he want them to live only because they treated him well before?"
"Em, stop talking nonsense. He has a reason to do what he's been doing. Let's just quietly take a leak and then get back. Hurry up!"
Hearing the conversations between these people who had formed groups to pee, Lin Qiao finally understood why Yang Jianhua had been chasing her family all this time. It turned out that he wanted to catch them alive.
But, why?
She couldn't figure it out, so she silently turned back to move to the vehicles. She chose the car in the middle, then stepped on the bumper and quietly climbed onto the car roof.
Then, she lied down and pressed her ear on the air vent to hear the sounds inside the car.
"Have you located them?"
"Sir, we have. They're in a warehouse two miles ahead."
"Don't get too close. Lin Hao has sharp sensations. He can discover us very easily. Stay five-hundred meters away from them, and from all the trees."
"Yes, Sir!"
"It's about the time to make a move. Lin Feng has been injured severely. Without him, I doubt they can run away from me again."
The sounds from inside the car were weak, but Lin Qiao still grasped them.
She knitted her brows. A man said that Lin Feng had been injured severely. Judging by his tone, this man should be Yang Jianhua. Somehow, Lin Qiao felt that his voice was familiar.
She guessed that she had misheard. ?She didn't know Yang Jianhua, so how could she find his voice familiar?
By that time, the people who went out to pee had all returned to the car.
Boom! Boom!
The car doors were closed. Two minutes later, the car on the left was started, driving forward. ?Lin Qiao hurriedly stood up and ran for two steps, then nimbly leaped onto that car.
After that, the car which she heard Yang Jianhua's voice from was started as well.
Next, all the other vehicles also began moving. But soon, Lin Qiao found that these cars were moving in different directions. She leaped down the car, then ran up and stepped onto a tree nearby. After that, she hopped onto the nearest building.
She wasn't able to jump over ten meters high, but a few meters was easy for her.
She leaped onto the third floor of the building in front of her, then popped her claws to catch hold of the wall. Next, she climbed up quickly like a monkey through all the areas with handholds.
She soon climbed onto the roof, then stood on the tallest spot to observe the routes of the few vehicles. A while later, she found that the car in the middle had been slowly moving forward, while all the other vehicles had taken detours. However, these cars were heading toward the same destination.
She sniffed the air and soon sensed a few faint human scents from that direction. This meant that Lin Feng and his family were right in that area.
Lin Qiao was sure about it because the human scents she sensed were very, very familiar to her.
She never paid attention to the scents of her family, maybe because she had gotten used to them or her sense of smell wasn't as sharp as today. However, she had still memorized the scents of her family.
As she had become a zombie and her sense of smell had grown hundreds of times sharper than before, those scents were now much more obvious to her.
She not only found those scents familiar, but had also detected some other things from them; she grasped a sense of belonging.
'Family!'
Suddenly, this word emerged in her mind.
Under her sunglasses, her eyes glowed with a green light. All of a sudden, her pupils turned green, and the green light shone out directly through the sunglasses.
If anyone were standing right in front of her at the moment, they would be able to see her faintly green eyes through those sunglasses.
Lin Qiao got a little excited as she immediately leaped toward the source of the human scents from the building roof.
...
In the warehouse which was targeted by Yang Jianhua and Lin Qiao, Lin Feng was lying in a corner. The little girl and the baby-faced Cheng Wangxue squatted by his side anxiously while the others were standing aside, looking at him with grim expressions.
Lin Hao and a few slightly injured soldiers guarded in the surroundings, with their backs toward Lin Feng. While focusing on the surrounding environment, they turned back to glance at Lin Feng from time to time with worry.
"Daddy! Daddy! How're you doing! Daddy! Don't die!" The little girl put her face on Lin Feng's chest and said to him while crying.
Lin Feng couldn't move, but his mind was still clear. He forced a smile on his face and comforted his daughter, "Xiaolu, it's alright! Daddy won't leave you... Eh-hem... pah!"
However, he coughed before finishing his words; his face paled as he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
The others were all frightened.
"Lin Feng, stop talking!"
"Daddy!" Lin Xiaolu couldn't help but cry out loud.
Cheng Wangyue had tears on her face as well, yet her eyes were showing determination. She held Lin Feng's hand and said through clenched teeth, "I will certainly kill that b*stard. He has fooled us for so long! I've been lying to us all these years! I'm gonna kill him! I'm definitely gonna kill him!"
"Wangxue, calm down! Lin Feng was too angry, which was why Yang Jianhua got a chance to hurt him. You can't be injured as well! We're almost arriving at Sea City, and the reinforcements will show up very soon! As long as Lin Feng makes it to the Sea City Base, he'll be safe!" Lin Wenwen put her arms around Cheng Wangxue's shoulders as she was worried that the latter might rush out alone.
