Chapter 233: Her Voice Is Fixed
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
The gentle energy slowly seeped into her body through her pores, gathering toward her stomach, chest, and head.?Lin Qiao didn’t feel any pain this time, only some heat in the stomach and a slight dizziness. Unwittingly, she fell asleep.
This time, she felt completely different from before. She didn’t even know what happened before waking up to find herself lying on a bed.
It seemed that Viney had sent her up and put her on the bed.
She sat up on the soft bed, looking at her stomach; the color of the membrane on her stomach had turned deeper. She pressed it and felt that it was soft, not quite like the stomach of a healthy human being. She had no idea what was under that membrane.
“Viney?” She raised her eyes to look at the lake, then tried to call Viney’s name.?But then, she was startled on hearing herself as she touched her throat and murmured to herself, “My voice is…fixed?”
Hearing her voice, a few thick vines immediately rose from the lake, dancing above the water, as if responding to her.?Lin Qiao glanced around and found her clothes at the end of the bed. After dressing up, she walked to the lakeside.
“Thank you, Viney!”
She didn’t know exactly what kind of creature Viney was, but she was grateful to it as it had healed her body.?Viney reached a vine to the lakeside and coiled around her foot.
‘Mama, don’t thank me! Viney exists because of Mama, so helping Mama is helping Viney!’
Lin Qiao squatted and picked up the vine from her foot, looking at it as she asked, “Why do you have to call me Mama? Why don’t you call me Sister?”
‘Why Sister? Mama, you told me to call you Mama,’ replied Viney confusedly.
Lin Qiao paused slightly in response, wondering when she told Viney to call her Mama.
“I told you to? When? How come I don’t remember it?”
Viney stayed silent for a while, then responded, ‘Em…em…em…I think it was a long, long time ago. I don’t remember either, but I remember some of the words that Mama said…’
“Some of the words I said?” Lin Qiao was even more surprised.
Viney nimbly pressed her palms a few times with the end of the vine.?Lin Qiao spent a while looking at the vine bewilderedly, then failed to recall when she told Viney to call her Mama.
“Alright, call me Mama if you like. Can I bring Junjun in now? I think she’s going to upgrade soon, and I guess she’ll activate a superpower.”
Viney again pressed Lin Qiao’s palm with the end of the vine, then responded, ‘Sure, sure…Mama, bring her in!’ Viney still had a great amount of energy, but Mama’s body couldn’t contain it all.
Hearing that, Lin Qiao stood up and dropped the vine, then disappeared.?After coming out, she looked outside the window and found that it was already dark.?Qiu Lili and Junjun were getting a little bored waiting for her in the room. As she showed up, both of them immediately turned to her.
Qiu Lili ran up to Lin Qiao, circling around her and looking at her from head to toe.
“Ahyayaya….Ahya…Ah…”
‘You look the same as before. I thought your hair would grow out,’ said Qiu Lili
Lin Qiao raised a hand to touch her bald head, then sighed and said, “Em, the hair haven’t grown, but my throat is fixed.”
She smoothly finished one sentence without pausing, even though her voice was still hoarse and unpleasant to hear.?As expected, both Qiu Lili and Junjun looked at her with surprise.
Junjun had been silent the whole time. She only watched quietly most of the time; if she wanted to say something, she would write.
Unlike her, Qiu Lili liked to talk in zombie language, even though some of the others couldn’t understand her.
Lin Qiao turned to Junjun and said, “Are you ready now?”
Junjun glanced at Tong Tong who was lying on the bed asleep, then nodded.?Lin Qiao too glanced at the asleep little boy, then held Junjun’s hands and disappeared together with her.
Qiu Lili took a circle in the room, then sat back into the couch next to the bed, feeling bored again.
“Viney.” After entering the space, Lin Qiao shouted at the lake.?Following her voice, a few arm-thick vines started dancing above the water.?Junjun looked at those vines which looked much stronger than before, then turned to Lin Qiao without knowing what to do.
“Junjun, take off your clothes and go down the lake.” While speaking, Lin Qiao turned back and picked up a glass. Then, she walked to the lake, filled it with water, and began drinking. Meanwhile, she pointed at the lake.
Junjun glanced at her, feeling a little shy. After that, she turned and began stripping with her back toward Lin Qiao. Looking at her, Lin Qiao knew that she was shy. So, after finishing drinking, Lin Qiao walked toward the strawberry field with the glass.
“Don’t worry, I won’t peek. Besides, I’m a woman too. Why’re you feeling shy?”
Junjun smiled embarrassedly, and unbuttoned her clothes slightly quicker than before.?However, she had no idea that Lin Qiao was able to see her without turning around if she wanted to.
Lin Qiao picked a strawberry and put it in the glass. The average-sized glass was only able to contain two or three strawberries, so Lin Qiao held the glass with one hand and picked three more strawberries with her other hand.
As she turned back, Junjun and Viney had both disappeared.?However, she was able to feel Junjun, who was now down in the lake.
At the moment, Junjun was dragged to the bottom of the lake by countless vines. The vines wrapped her, making her feel a wave of numbness and stinging from every corner of her body.
Something had entered her body.?She didn’t know what it was, because she had started to feel a swelling pain from her head. The headache disabled her sensations and blurred her mind.
But gradually, some disordered images emerged in her mind.
At first, she saw many people, all moving toward one direction. The surrounding environment was changing constantly, so was the number of those people. At last, those people seemed to be desperate, some even having an emotional breakdown.
They had no water, food, or weapons, so the leaders of this group of people planned to sneakily abandon some people.
As a result, she and her son were abandoned. To protect her child from being hurt by her former teammates who had become zombies, she and a man risked their lives to escape with the child. But at last, she was still bitten by a zombie.
Then, that man took away the water and food that she had left to her son. As she lapsed into unconsciousness, that man sneakily left her and the child.
The images in her head weren’t coherent, but were clear. Seeing those, she slowly remembered many things.
Cheng Wangxue was right. She and her son were abandoned indeed; they were abandoned by that man.
With that realization, an intense hatred began spreading in her heart.
