Lin Qiao looked at the others and said, “Alright! Now, can I take a look at your progress?”

Lin Feng spread a map on a table. It was clearly a map of this area, with some marks on it. Lin Qiao, Yuan Tianxing, Lin Feng, Chen Yuting, and the others all gathered around the table.

Lin Feng pointed at a triangle mark and said, “This is our hotel, and this area is our construction site. A few old buildings have been torn down. All the bricks from those buildings will be used to build the fence wall. All the useful things from those buildings have been moved here, and the useless things were either torn apart or burned.”

Lin Qiao looked at that area on the map. A river existed in that area, and it should be connected with the old sewerage system. If the new base was built along with the river, the river would surround the base and serve as a protection.

“Is the fence wall behind the river?” she asked.

Yuan Tianxing nodded and said, “Yes. I’ve checked the depth of this river. The deepest area in the middle was about four meters deep. Lots of garbage had accumulated at the bottom of the lake, along with a thick layer of mud. If people want to get down into the river, they have to have water-power, or it’ll be very dangerous.”

Lin Qiao nodded as she carefully checked all the marks on the map. The center of the new base was circled up on the map by Yuan Tianxing with a red line, having an area of about five or six acres.

Lin Feng suddenly thought of something. “We’re preparing to install the solar equipment that you collected earlier in this hotel. What do you think?”

Lin Qiao nodded and responded, “I’m fine with it. Have you found someone who knows how to install it?”

Yuan Tianxing said, “Yes. We’ve been waiting for the equipment.”

“Alright, I’ll go up to the roof later on to take the solar equipment out of my space, and you can bring your people up there,” said Lin Qiao.

Lin Feng nodded in response.

Yuan Tianxing and the others pointed at the map as they talked about the construction of the fence wall. Lin Wenwen and the other ladies didn’t fully understand what they said, as they didn’t take part in the construction work.

At that time, Mrs. Lin quietly walked to Lin Wenwen and poked her. The latter turned around and saw her mother wave at her before walking toward the stairs.

Qiu Lili and Liu Jun didn’t want to hear about the construction work, so after staying around Lin Qiao for a short while, they got bored and sneaked away.

As same as Liu Jun, Cheng Wangxue was with a child. To prevent the child from disturbing Lin Feng and the others, she left early with her daughter as well.

Lin Wenwen glanced back at Long Qingying. She didn’t know what Mrs. Lin was going to say to her, but still followed behind her mother.

“What’s wrong?” In the corner behind the stairs, Lin Wenwen asked Mrs. Lin. The latter glanced at Lin Qiao and the others who were still talking about work, then reached out a hand to drag Lin Wenwen further into the corner.

She looked at Lin Wenwen and asked, “The words you said earlier, what did they mean?”

Lin Wenwen didn’t understand her meaning immediately. “Words? What words?” she asked.

Mrs. Lin gave her a calm glance and said, “The weird conversation that happened between you and Miss. Lu just now. She said that she knew what you were thinking about, and that you’ve been seeing her as someone who had an accident. And then, you said that she admitted something… Tell me, have you identified her?”

Lin Wenwen gazed at her mother, saying, “Mom… You’re not… thinking what I’m thinking, are you?”

Mrs. Lin sighed and said, “As I thought, you’ve guessed it.”

Lin Wenwen looked at Mrs. Lin’s face with surprise and asked, “Mom, had you figured it out long ago? How did you know?”

Mrs. Lin gave her another glance, saying, “I’m your Mom. Don’t I know you kids? Even you suspect her, so why can’t I discover the strange things about her?”

She turned to Lin Qiao and continued, “I recognized her handwriting when she first showed up. Didn’t you notice that too? I’ve just been guessing. I can’t say for sure, as such a thing is too… unbelievable.”

Lin Wenwen looked at Mrs. Lin and said delightfully, “Mom, are you saying that you’ve recognized her as well? Mom, the apocalypse happened, and even zombies are talking. So, what is impossible? My sister is so powerful. She can’t possibly be killed by those people.”

Mrs. Lin sighed, “Ah, I had the same thoughts. But, I’m old, and I only believe in reality. I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, so how can I possibly believe it? How did you find out that she’s your…”

Mrs. Lin didn’t finish the last word, but rolled her eyes and glanced at Lin Qiao again.

Lin Wenwen said with a low voice, “I’ve been suspecting her since the beginning too. No stranger will come all the way to find and help us without doing anything for herself, right? To prove my guess, I dug into her current identity. According to the result I got, Lu Tianyu used to be an evil woman who liked doing bad things. She died a few months ago. So now, she became a zombie.”

“Evil? Liked doing bad things? How did she die?” asked Mrs. Lin with surprise.

“I heard that before she died, she did something… and that offended someone. So, she was killed and thrown into a zombie crowd. Her body was never found,” said Lin Wenwen.

Du Yuanxing said that Lu Tianyu raped Wu Chengyue before she died. Lin Wenwen decided not to tell her mother about it, as she guessed that her mother wouldn’t want to know.

Mrs. Lin looked at her and asked with anticipation, “When she asked you what you were thinking, were you thinking about that? Did she admit?”

Lin Wenwen nodded, her pretty face wearing her excitement. “Yes, that was what I was thinking. I just don’t know how she figured it out. Also, she admitted it in front of so many people!” she said.

Mrs. Lin was a little stunned as she murmured, “She admitted… So she really is…”

When Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwen were trying to confirm who Lin Qiao really was, Lin Qiao, who had been talking to Lin Feng and the others, had heard every word they said, not clearly though.

She stayed composed and showed no change of expression, only having her eyes glow dimly.

“It’s afternoon already. People will stop working for the day in about an hour. I want to go to the construction site and take a look. You can do your own things… Don’t worry about me,” said Lin Qiao.

“I’ll go with you then,” said Yuan Tianxing, “I haven’t been there today. I’ll also try to get you a small building on our way.”

“Alright,” Lin Qiao nodded and replied.

She stood up while speaking as the others also packed their things and left, with the meeting being over.

Lin Qiao and Yuan Tianxing walked out of the lobby and headed toward the river. The river was nearby, only about one mile away, so Lin Qiao decided not to drive. By walking, she could get a better chance to observe the surrounding environment.
