Perhaps because of the fear in her heart, Lin Qingqing's voice trembled, and it took her a long time to call out the name that she had not called for many years.
"You are...Xiaoqing"? The hoarse male voice hesitated.
"Well...it's me...I..."
She wanted to say that she was scared and wanted to say, Dad, come and save me! But in the end she just opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
"The weather outside has changed, and there are man-eating monsters everywhere." The hoarse male voice seemed to have not yet reacted, and it took him a long time to say such a dry sentence.
"I know I know……"
Hearing this strange yet familiar voice, Lin Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned red. For some reason, she felt an inexplicable grievance in her heart, and her tears began to drip unknowingly.
"Well, you have come here alone for so many years. Since you are still alive, my father believes that you can take care of yourself in the future. I still have to take care of your mother and younger brothers and sisters, so I won't look for you."
As soon as the hoarse voice finished speaking, she hung up the phone without giving her any time to react, as if it was just an ordinary phone call that she accidentally dialed by mistake.
"Hello? Hello! Dad...Dad"?
Lin Qingqing's mind went blank when she heard the "beep beep beep" sound coming from her ears again.
…
The mother mentioned on the phone was not her biological mother, and the sister was not her biological sister, but at this terrible end, her biological father once again chose to give up her for them.
She didn't know what she was vaguely expecting when she made that phone call before, but at this moment, she felt that the invisible thread between the father and daughter was suddenly broken.
There is nothing left, and I am completely alone.
"That's okay, that's okay! One person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. Isn't this how it has been all these years since my mother passed away? Lin Qingqing, what are you expecting for something that has never been available before?"
She wiped her tears desperately and swore secretly in her heart:
"I want to live, not only live, but also live well"!
Closing her eyes, Lin Qingqing put aside those sad emotions, gritted her teeth and forced herself to cheer up and start making plans for her future.
Today is New Year's Day, the first day of the New Year. The end has come, but she survived.
Lin Qingqing is not sure whether there is any necessary connection between the two, but since she can be "resurrected", it may mean that she should not die!
"This New Year is so exciting! Is this the legendary thing about living toward death and then risking your life?"
Why did she commit suicide? That's because she was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and the doctor determined that she would not live for more than a year. She did not have the ability to treat herself, and she did not want to drag her weak body through the last period of her life in pain.
So, on a quiet night, after deliberation for a long time, Lin Qingqing chose to commit suicide.
She was very calm when she left. Looking back on this short life, apart from her unhappy childhood and family, she did not leave any regrets.
Although her mother died when she was just an adult, she respected her mother's last wishes and lived a free and beautiful life. In just ten years, her life may be more exciting than most people's lifetimes.
"But the world is different now. Even if I only have one year to live, even if I don't know how far I can go, I will never give up again"!
After thinking so much, Lin Qingqing gradually struggled out of her previous fear and sadness.
She tried moving her hands and feet and found that her body was no longer stiff and had basically returned to its normal flexibility.
Then she slowly got up and took out the medicine box to treat the wound on her left wrist first.
"Huh? The wound seems to have become shallower"?
She raised her left hand high and looked at the brightly lit place again.
After cleaning the blood stains, my wrist was white and slender, as if it would break if I bent it hard. But the two originally hideous scars on his wrists were now only two shallow blood scabs.
"How is this going"?
She looked back and forth at her unfamiliar hands. The skin was fair and delicate, the joints were distinct, and the veins on the back of her hands were bulging.
"This is my hand, but it doesn't look like the original pair"! Lin Qingqing touched the tiger's mouth and murmured to herself.
There used to be a burn scar here, which was left when she accidentally knocked over the water bottle when she was naughty. It has been with her for more than ten years, but now it is gone.
After reacting, Lin Qingqing quickly rummaged all over her body with disbelief.
"No! Not a single scar! How is this possible?"
The next moment, she stood up and rushed to the mirror. She quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she looked at the familiar face in the mirror.
The person in the mirror has shoulder-length black hair, porcelain white skin, thin and curved eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and soft lip lines. This should have been a charming appearance, but it happened to have a pair of sharp phoenix eyes. . The pupils in the eyes are dark and bright, but the eyes are extremely cold, so that the eyes of those who see it can only accommodate those two eyes, but ignore other outstanding aspects.
Fortunately, she is still her! She finally survived, but she didn't want to be reborn in someone else's body.
However, although she still had her own body, she looked even thinner than when she was sick before. Although her skin was good, her cheeks were severely sunken.
She found the scale and stood on it. When she looked at the number 44 in front of her, she was a little stunned.
Are you kidding? As a girl who is 1.75 meters tall, how can she only weigh 88 pounds?
"What on earth did I experience last night?"
Lin Qingqing lowered her head and looked at herself: Apart from the bones, there was almost only a piece of skin left on this body. She seriously doubted whether she had been secretly sucked by some goblin last night. With this ghostly look, as long as he paints his face black, he might look more like a zombie than the zombies downstairs.
"Gululu~"
At this time, her stomach made a gurgling sound. Thinking of this terrible doomsday, Lin Qingqing took two deep breaths and tried hard to cheer up, preparing to soothe her empty stomach first.
He walked into the kitchen, boiled water in a pot, and took out the frozen dumplings he bought before the end.
"Gululu~"
"Guluulu~"
A series of sounds sounded like drums. She was so hungry that she swallowed hard, and then she barely waited until the dumplings were cooked.
One bowl is not enough, have another bowl.
It wasn't until she finished two whole bags of frozen dumplings that the feeling of emptiness in her body finally disappeared. She had never been so hungry, and she had never felt that frozen dumplings could be so delicious.
As a single young woman, Lin Qingqing rarely cooks at home, so there is not much food in the house. In this first meal, she ate nearly one-third of the stored food, and most of the rest were snacks such as chocolate biscuits.
Looking at the only food left, she was a little silent. Whether she could survive for more than a year was no longer important now. The shortage of food had become a top priority.
She didn't know if she would need to eat so much every meal with her appearance in the future. If she really turned into a loser, then she might as well let herself become a zombie in advance. At least zombies wouldn't have to worry about starvation.
Thinking of the dim future, the good mood brought by just having a full stomach disappeared.
But fortunately, she has always been a calm and rational person, and she left these boring worries behind after a moment of decadence.
Calmly ignoring her hungry stomach, Lin Qingqing carefully divided the little food left into nine portions according to her previous appetite, three meals a day, which was enough for three days.
"Well, that's not right."
She paused, and then divided out one serving per day. If she didn't do anything at home, she should be able to eat two meals.
Although my body seems to be extremely deficient in nutrition, this is a long-term process, and two or three more meals will not solve the problem.
After distributing the food, the next step was to stock up on drinking water. Lin Qingqing didn't know how long the tap water would be available, so she filled all the bottles and jars at home with clean water, even the ice trays in the refrigerator and freezer.
After finishing all this, Lin Qingqing felt that her bones were almost weak. She slumped on the sofa and relaxed for a long time, and then she began to think about zombies.
"While the Internet is still connected, let's take a look at what's going on outside."
She turned on her phone, and all the websites and forums on it were filled with topics about zombies. News of fear, complaints, and excitement came overwhelmingly.
Ignoring all these, Lin Qingqing took the lead in opening the official news website of China and found the three top stories on it.
