With all kinds of questions in his head, Xie Dong was overwhelmed a little. He moved to the door side and waited for Lin Qiao to come out while thinking.
Lin Wenwen glanced at Xie Dong curiously when Lin Qiao walked in, then closed the door.
Lin Qiao responded to Lin Wenwen with a faint, mysterious smile, and looked at Long Qingying, who was walking toward her from the window side. Then, she took out the clipboard and wrote something down.
‘I want you to make me a large metal cage.’
“Metal cage? What do you need that for? Do you need to lock something up?” Lin Wenwen stared at Lin Qiao’s handwriting for a couple of seconds, then asked.
“Large metal cage?” Long Qingying also looked at Lin Qiao and asked with confusion, “What kind of metal cage do you want? How large?”
‘Oblong, two meters tall, five meters long, three meters wide, without a bottom’?—Lin Xiao wrote.
Long Qingying glanced at Lin Wenwen, then continued asking, “This large? To keep what?”
“Without a bottom? So, it’ll be like a large metal cover, right?”
Lin Qiao erased the words on the clipboard and then continued writing—?‘Large turtles.’
Reading that, Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying were even more confused.?What kind of turtle needed to be kept in such a large cage? How big were those turtles? Why did the zombie catch those turtles? And, why did she want to keep them in cages?
Lin Qiao didn’t answer all of their questions, but threw back one of her own—‘Can you help?’
Long Qingying nodded expressionlessly and responded, “No problem! But, the cage you want is too big, so I need to go out of the building to make it for you.”
Lin Qiao nodded, then smiled at Long Qingying and Lin Wenwen.?Having decided on it, Long Qingying walked toward the door right away. Lin Qiao followed behind her, and Lin Wenwen followed behind the former with curiosity.
Once out, Long Qingying saw Xie Dong, who was standing by the wall. She glanced at him without showing any interest, then kept moving toward the stairs.
Soon, she exited the lobby and came to the parking lot outside the hotel gate.?Xie Dong followed Lin Qiao down. Ever since she came out of Lin Wenwen’s room, he had been staring at her.
The more he looked at her, the more she seemed like Lu Tianyu.??‘Is she really Lu Tianyu?’?He wondered.
Sensing his gaze, Lin Qiao glanced back at him.??‘What’s wrong?’?She asked.
Xie Dong raised a hand to point at her and opened his mouth. He wanted to utter a sound to ask her if she was Lu Tianyu, but then he glanced at the two humans and gave up.
On the other side, Long Qingying looked at the surrounding buildings. She chose a relatively more damaged area, then raised a hand to reach to a certain direction.
Lin Qiao saw that a stream of energy gushed out of her head, circled in her body, and then gathered in her palm.?Next, as she crooked her fingers toward the halfway broken building, all metal pieces in there flew at her.
Those pieces melted into a giant and dark metal chunk, floating above the parking lot.
She reached out another hand toward the metal chunk, her fingers clenched. Then, she started to pull her hands away from each other. Following her movements, the metal chunk was elongated as if a pair of giant invisible hands had been stretching it.
As she waved her arms in the air like drawing a picture, the metal chunk slowly changed its shape and became an oblong cage.?The cage was made from broomstick-thick metal sticks, about fifteen centimeters apart from each other.
Long Qingying turned to ask Lin Qiao, “Is the space okay?”
Lin Qiao nodded in response.?Not even the smallest one among the few turtles Lin Qiao had caught could escape this cage.??‘Maybe after I have finished the few turtles, I can go back to the lake and catch some more!’?She thought.
As she nodded, Long Qingying put the huge cage on the ground. Lin Qiao walked over and gripped two metal sticks to pull them. She found that the cage was rather sturdy, so she turned to nod at Long Qingying again.
Long Qingying crossed her arms before her chest, standing aside as she looked at Lin Qiao curiously.?Lin Wenwen watched for a while and couldn’t help but ask Lin Qiao, “What exactly do you need this giant cage for?”
Lin Qiao closed her eyes to sense her space, then swung her arm toward the ground.?With that, a large turtle fell to the ground.
Bang!
“Wow! Such a huge turtle shell! Do you like to collect turtle shells? Strange taste!” Lin Wenwen stared at the turtle and remarked.
Lin Qiao walked to the turtle and turned it around. Then, she squatted by the turtle and raised a hand. Suddenly, a tiny mouse appeared in her hand, its tail pinched between her fingers.
Since she woke up in this post-apocalyptic world, about twenty days had passed. This mouse had spent over ten days in her space. It hadn’t grown up yet, but it was a lot bigger than before.
Being dangled from Lin Qiao’s hand, the mouse struggled as hard as it could. It bent its body to try and climb up through its own tail, but as she shook her hand, it fell again.
Squeak! Squeak!
Lin Qiao shook the mouse for a few times and made it fall unconscious.?Then, she put it before the turtle’s head and swung it slightly.
The others watched Lin Qiao with curiosity, wondering what she was doing. They thought it was just a turtle shell, but judging by Lin Qiao’s movement, there seemed to be something in it.
Right at that moment, a turtle head thrust out of the shell and bared its sharp teeth to bite the mouse.
Squeak!
The mouse sensed the danger, immediately waking up and struggling.
Fortunately for it, Lin Qiao pulled the mouse up before the turtle could bite it.
“Eh? It’s alive!” Lin Wenwen stared at the turtle and said with surprise.
After missing its target, the turtle quickly reached out its limbs and turned, trying to run away.?However, as Lin Qiao put a foot on its shell, the turtle could only move its limbs without being able to move an inch.
By now, the others truly believed that the large cage was for keeping turtles. But, they still felt that the cage was a little too large for just one turtle.
Lin Qiao looked at the others in the eyes and figured out what they were thinking. Without paying much attention to their thoughts, she nimbly kicked the turtle to turn it around, making it lie on the ground.
After that, she pushed the turtle toward the cage with her foot. As the turtle was sent to the cage, she lifted one corner with one hand, then kicked the turtle in.
Bang!
Having done that, she put the cage back down.
The turtle rolled into the cage, getting back on all fours as it stopped rolling and trying to run immediately.?However, it wasn’t able to run out of the cage. Its hard shell hit against the metal cage and caused loud noises. The cage was shaken slightly, but showed no sign of breaking.
