She was a little surprised . Wu Chengyue didn’t find out that she was here, did he?

She hurriedly stepped back and quickly moved to a corner in the hallway, sticking half of her head out from behind the wall to observe the door with one eye .
After that, she saw a soldier turn to open the door and let Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling out .
Wu Yueling’s hand was held by her father . She was pouting, looking a little grumpy .
Lin Qiao could tell that the little girl was very unhappy . When she got close enough, she sensed the latter’s thoughts . It turned out that the kid wanted to see her . She had been here for days, but still hadn’t seen Lin Qiao . That was why she was unhappy .
As Wu Chengyue was coming over, Lin Qiao didn’t dare to linger there . She hurriedly moved further backward while watching him try to cheer his daughter up .
“Alright, Ling Ling, can you please give Daddy a smile? Look at your little pouted mouth . I can even hang a cloth on it . ”
“She’ll be back very soon . You really like her, don’t you? But, don’t you want Daddy anymore?”
“Good girl! We won’t go home until we see her, alright?”
Lin Qiao was speechless .
‘No! You are going back! Why are you staying here?’ she thought .

However, her heart was softened a little when she saw Wu Yueling’s little unhappy face . The kid’s autistic symptoms became more obvious when she was unhappy .
She thought that Wu Yueling’s autism was going better . But earlier on, she sensed something strange from the bottom of the little girl’s heart . It was not obvious, but it did catch her attention .
She crossed her arms and watched Wu Chengyue bring the little girl downstairs with all sorts of doubts . Meanwhile, she carefully thought about the faint trace of brutality which had just flashed across Wu Yueling’s mind .
She felt as if the kid was trying to restrain something . It might also be because of the bad mood that she was having now .
Anyhow, she had a bad feeling about the sudden trace of brutality which suddenly appeared in the little one’s mind . It made her feel that something bad was going to happen someday .
Since the little one wanted to see her, she decided to secretly meet her… as long as her father didn’t know about it .
She thought for a moment, and then had an idea . Next, she flashed into her space .
She glanced at the zombie dog which was still lying upsettingly on the ground, but ignored it . Instead, she walked to the grass and picked a few long grass leaves, then sat down and started weaving .
While weaving, she kept picking more grass leaves until she had a handful of different sized ones .
She wove some grass leaves into a tiny green person, then shredded some soft and tender leaves and wove them into the person’s head, making them look like soft, long hair .

Soon, she had made a grass doll and drawn a pair of eyes and a mouth on its face with a pen .
She spent a while gazing at the doll before nodding with satisfaction .
After that, she soaked the doll in the lake water, then shook the extra water off . Next, she went into the small building to look for the rabbit .
Before long, she dragged that gray rabbit which was already huge and fat out from under a couch . She sat on the couch and put the rabbit on her knees, then placed the doll on the table .
“In fact, the little one would be happier if I sent you out . But, I’d expose myself too soon if I did that . So, I can’t let you out . ”
Wu Chengyue didn’t close the window in their room when he took Wu Yueling downstairs for dinner . So, Lin Qiao grasped the opportunity to get in through the window and find their bed .
They slept on the same bed, as Wu Chengyue was definitely not going to let his daughter sleep alone in a strange place . Also, Wu Yueling refused to sleep alone in a strange room . Staying alone in a strange place might lead to an attack of her illness .
Lin Qiao felt that the little girl’s autism would attack soon anyway if she didn’t show up in front of her as soon as possible .
Based on the conversations between some other people that she had overheard, she learned that Wu Chengyue and the little one had already been here for three days .
She didn’t think that waiting three days without seeing her would make Wu Yueling’s autism flare up . That made her feel weird .

Judging by what Cheng Wangxue said, Wu Yueling refused to play with Lin Xiaolu . Lin Xiaolu wanted to play with her very much, but she ran away every time . Later on, Lin Xiaolu gave up as well .
So these days, Wu Yueling had been following Wu Chengyue everywhere .
She didn’t see Lin Qiao, so she was unhappy; and the unhappiness led to anxiety . After being anxious for three days, she became a little depressed . That was what Lin Qiao sensed from her .
Lin Qiao walked to the side of the bed that Wu Yueling slept in and put the grass doll under her pillow before leaving .
She went back to the fifth floor and found Qiu Lili’s room . Then, she took out a piece of paper and a pen, writing a note and placing it on Qiu Lili’s table .
Next, she turned and left again . She returned to the sweet potato field under Mount Wu, thinking about how to plant crops in it .
Back in the sweet potato field, she entered her space and looked at the strawberry field which was damaged by the zombie dog while chasing the snake . She walked over and squatted helplessly to remove the broken strawberry plants .
While she was cleaning the strawberry field, Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling went back to their room .
Wu Chengyue felt helpless, as his daughter was unhappy . The female zombie didn’t show up, and he couldn’t find her . He was thinking that if she kept hiding, he would have to figure out a way to make her show up .
Stepping into the room, Wu Yueling quickly dropped her father’s hand and got into the bed .
“Ling Ling, you haven’t taken a shower yet,” Wu Chengyue reminded her . However, she completely ignored him . It was like back in the worst time of her autism . Wu Chengyue knew that her autism was going to flare up again .
On one hand, the little girl was anxious because she thought that her Daddy lied to her . On the other hand, she looked forward to see Lin Qiao so much . So, the longer she waited, the more disappointed she got .
As her father, Wu Chengyue surely knew how his daughter was feeling right now . So, he was aware that he needed to figure out a way to find that female zombie as soon as possible .
At that moment, the door was pushed open . Xiao Licheng walked in and said to him, “Chief, the fifth floor is the territory of those zombies . Usually, the others aren’t allowed to go there . But Miss . Liu told me that Miss . Lu hadn’t come back there in days indeed . Also, I’ve checked the Mount Wu area . Except for the field, there was also a large snake pit there . ”
“Take a seat,” Wu Chengyue pointed at the couch next to him .
Xiao Licheng sat down and continued, “There was a huge mutated snake in that pit . Judging by the traces near the pit, the snake should be as thick as an average size woman’s waist . It’s missing now as it’s not in the pit . Also, a lot of evidences of a struggle were left in the pit . Those traces are new . I think some people have been there recently… more than one group of people . ”
“Did she go to catch the snake?” said Wu Chengyue with a strange look on his face, “She ate a thigh-thick snake last time . ”
“Eh… that’s possible,” said Xiao Licheng .
