After crying for a while, Lei Min calmed down. Looking at the water stains on Lin Qingqing's trouser legs, she rubbed her fingers in embarrassment.
"Yes, sorry"!
Lin Qingqing did not blame her. She stretched out her hand to help her up and asked, "What are your plans in the future?"
If she has somewhere to go, Lin Qingqing doesn't mind giving her a ride.
"I have no idea……"
Lei Min shook his head blankly. Her family was out of town and she could no longer be contacted after the apocalypse. Apart from her classmates, her cousin was the only relative in Rongcheng.
"Do you know where the base is?" Lin Qingqing thought for a while and asked again.
"I know, I know, but I don't want to go."
Lei Min whispered, the base is not that easy to mess with, especially for a single young girl.
"Why"? Lin Qingqing was puzzled.
"I, I have a sprained foot"!
Lei Min thought for a while and did not tell the truth. She had not yet decided what to do in the future.
Originally, I wanted to find my cousin first, and then find a way to return to my hometown with her, but now my cousin is gone, and I don’t know where she went after her former classmates abandoned her.
Seeing her hesitation, Lin Qingqing finally remembered that when they were escaping, the girl was indeed suddenly attacked with vines by a wood-type superpower.
It would be fine if she was not injured, but now that her sprained foot makes it difficult to move, she must not leave a wounded person in the same place. If she encounters a zombie again, she may not be able to escape.
"Alas~"
Lin Qingqing sighed again, and then helped the girl find her car.
The two walked through the woods and came to the place where they parked their car. They saw that Chu Wei's off-road vehicle was indeed gone. I don’t know how Xiao Hu drove away, but fortunately he didn’t touch his car.
Lin Qingqing checked inside and out and found no trace of tampering.
"Let's find a place to rest first." Lin Qingqing helped the girl get into the car, and then asked, "Do you know if there is a place to stay here?"
"I know, I'll show you the way," the girl raised her head and sniffed.
"There are dormitories here for park rangers to rest. My cousin took me here before."
She was very familiar with this place. The car was driving slowly on the deserted road in the park. Lin Qingqing followed the girl's guidance and found a two-story building hidden in the dense woods.
After dealing with a few zombies, Lin Qingqing took the girl upstairs and found two relatively clean dormitories, where she prepared to rest for the night.
She looked at the girl's foot, but it was sprained, and no muscles or bones were injured. With the recovery speed of a superpower, her injury was nothing. A little medicine would probably heal it tomorrow.
"You should rest here tonight." Lin Qingqing gave her a meal of food and water and prepared to go to the next room.
"how about you"?
"I'm also resting here today." After saying that, Lin Qingqing left without giving her a chance to speak again. "Why……"
Looking at that slender figure, the girl suddenly realized that she didn't even know the other person's name.
"She doesn't want to know me," the girl thought with some frustration as she sat back on the bed holding the food and water.
After Lin Qingqing returned to her room, she had forgotten the girl next door.
After saving her life and taking her to a safe place, Lin Qingqing felt that she had done everything she could. Moreover, the other party is also a person with superpowers. In the end of the world, having superpowers is equivalent to having the most basic ability to survive. There is no need for her to worry about survival issues for the other party.
After eating and taking a short rest, Lin Qingqing locked the door and began to meditate. This is her secret and her biggest trump card, so she spends every spare moment doing meditation exercises.
Today, the girl next door was thrown to the zombies by her companions, and she and Lao Yang were stabbed in the back by Chu Wei.
It was also a betrayal, but Lao Yang died. The girl was lucky enough to be saved by him, but Chu Wei was killed by him the moment he took action.
Lin Qingqing knew in her heart that in the apocalypse, there would be kind-hearted people like Captain Xiao and the girl next door, but they would be a very small minority after all. Most of them are selfish survivors like Chu Wei and girl classmates, or some evil people like Zhou Mang.
And the reason why she survived to the end today and dared to save people was because she was stronger than others.
"Captain Xiao said that someone has already reached the third level."
Lin Qingqing didn't know how others did it, but she knew that there would never be a shortage of strong people in this world.
Some people are smart and talented, some people have strong backgrounds and never lack resources, and some people are not only capable but also extremely lucky.
Although she has meditation skills that can speed up her strength improvement, she still dare not relax because she understands that compared to those brainless zombies, the real danger in the apocalypse is the greed and calculation of the same kind.
Lin Qingqing has always known that she is not among the top, so only her growing strength is the confidence for her to survive in the apocalypse.
It was a quiet night.
Early the next morning, Lin Qingqing knocked on the door of the girl next door.
"These are for you, take care of yourself"!
She handed the girl a small packet of food and formally bid her farewell.
"you are leaving"?
The girl rubbed her eyes and looked at her in surprise.
She had heavy dark circles under her eyes, and it looked like she had not slept well last night. She originally thought that this sister would stay with her for a few days no matter what, but she didn't expect that she would leave immediately.
"Well, take it," Lin Qingqing said and passed the food in her hand forward.
Two packs of biscuits and one bottle of water were actually just enough for a day, which was not much, but the girl couldn't stretch out her hand.
It's not that she's being pretentious, but because she knows that if she just reaches out and takes it, it means that she has accepted the other person's farewell, and the two of them may never meet again in the future.
She doesn't want this, she wants to follow her!
"What's wrong"?
Lin Qingqing frowned when she saw the girl lowered her head and didn't speak or pick up anything.
"Can I...can I follow you?"
"no"! Lin Qingqing refused without thinking. "You saved me, I want to repay your life-saving grace"! "I don't need you to repay me. You lured the zombies away. I saved you just to lure the zombies back. It's just convenient"!
"Are you here specifically to kill our zombies?"
"Well, I got news that there is a level 2 zombie here, so I came."
Lin Qingqing pretended not to hear the word "cousin" that the girl left unfinished. Zombies are zombies, and she has no interest in knowing the stories of their lifetimes.
Seeing that the girl was hesitant to speak, Lin Qingqing thought for a while and continued: "Although that zombie was related to you before it was alive, I killed it too, and I will not give the crystal core to you!" "I, I didn't mean that", the girl waved her hand in surprise, "Don't get me wrong, I know it was your trophy from killing... you, and you and I don't want the crystal core."
"Then why are you following me"?
Lin Qingqing was a little surprised. Just look at Chu Wei to see how rare a second-level crystal core of the same attribute is, let alone a rare thunder type, and it came from her cousin.
Does she really not want it?
