“Ah! Ahyayaya…Ahyaya…”

‘Junjun, you can talk! So quickly! I want to be able to talk too!’

Finding that Liu Jun was able to talk, Qiu Lili immediately got excited and turned to yell at Lin Qiao, who smiled and responded, “I need to ask Viney first. I don’t know if it has used the energy up.”

“Chief, did you discover your space recently?” Liu Jun asked curiously, “I didn’t hear you mention your space power before. And, that thing in the lake…What is it?”

Lin Qiao felt weird on hearing Junjun call her ‘Chief’, so she said, “Eh, don’t call me that. The others might feel strange about it.”

Liu Jun paused briefly, then asked, “Eh? What should I call you then? Calling your name is strange as well.”

Their conversation confused Qiu Lili as she looked at the two bewilderedly, asking, “Ahyayayay?”

‘What are you talking about?’

“Em, Junjun has remembered lots of things. I can’t explain everything to you now, but you’ll find out in the future,” Lin Qiao said to her.

Turning back, she rested her chin on her hand and continued, “You can call me Captain from now on. I’m kinda leading a zombie squad after all.”

Liu Jun nodded in agreement, “That’s true…I’ll call you Captain then.”

“Ahyayaya?” Qiu Lili looked at Lin Qiao and asked another question.

‘Why are you the captain?’

Lin Qiao looked at her with a meaningful smile while saying, “Do you want to be the captain? You’ll be fixing all our problems…Is that okay?”

Hearing that, Qiu Lili frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head. She didn’t know much, and her skills were limited. For many problems, she didn’t know the solutions.

She disappeared from time to time, so, Lin Qiao knew that she was too lazy to lead a team.

“I’ll go ask Viney if it can heal another zombie. You wait here,” Lin Qiao as she entered the space. Standing by the lake, she shouted, “Viney, come out.”

A few vines rose from the water surface in response, reaching toward her.?She squatted by the water, reaching out a hand and letting the vines coil around it.

“Viney, have you used up all your energy? Can you heal another one?”

‘Em…That depends on if the healing requires a large amount of energy or not…Earlier on, the lady needed the energy in her head to be restored, as well as her memories, so it cost quite some energy…I don’t have lots of energy for healing right now…’

Lin Qiao nodded, as she had guessed the same. “Alright! Will you be alright as you’ve consumed the energy up?” She asked.

Viney’s few thick vines quickly wagged upon the water.?‘Lahlahlah…Viney is okay…Viney doesn’t need that energy…’

Lin Qiao suddenly thought of something, so she asked, “Viney, how did you restore Junjun’s memory? Do you think that I’ve lost a part of my memory?”

Once she asked the question, Viney gave the answer immediately.

‘Yeah, yeah! Mama, you’ve lost some memories…Mama, don’t you know that? I can’t fix your memories…’

“How do you know that?” Lin Qiao asked.

‘Ah…I don’t know…But Mama, a part of your brain is wrapped by something…I can’t unlock it…’ Viney replied with confusion.

A part of her brain was wrapped? By what? Was that the reason why she lost her memory of the past five years? She was using a different body now. Was this situation caused by her own body, or by Lu Tianyu’s body?

“Will my memory be restored when that area in my brain is unlocked?” She asked.

‘…I think so…But I’m not sure…Mama, you need to figure out a way and try…’ Viney nodded with the end of a vine, shaking its pair of small leaves.

Lin Qiao supported her chin with one hand and said while thinking, “How should I try? Even you can’t restore my memory…”

Viney seemed to be thinking about the same question, but it clearly didn’t have an answer.

‘Em…em…em…Mama, maybe you should ask someone else…’

Lin Qiao sighed, with no choice except for agreeing, “Alright…Thank you, Viney!”

‘Mama…Don’t say thank you to Viney…That sounds like we’re strangers…’ Viney complained unhappily.

Lin Qiao nodded and responded, “Alright, alright, that’s it! I’ll go out to ask the others if they can help.”

‘Okay.’

With that, Lin Qiao flashed out and returned to the room.

“How is it?” Liu Jun immediately turned back and asked.?Qiu Lili moved to Lin Qiao’s side as well, looking at her with anticipation.

Lin Qiao said to Qiu Lili a little helplessly, “No, Viney says that the energy isn’t enough. We have to wait until next time, so be patient.”

Qiu Lili pouted with disappointment and replied, “Ahya…”

‘Alright.’

Lin Qiao crooked her finger toward the two and said, “Here, Viney says that a part of my brain is wrapped by something. That might be the reason why I lost my memory. Think, is there a way to restore my memory?”

Liu Jun looked at her with surprise and said, “Your head? Does it mean the head of Lu Tianyu? Or the head of yours in your soul?”

“I’m not sure,” Lin Qiao shook her head confusedly.

“And, your power…You used to have fire power, but why it became a mist?” Liu Jun continued.

Speaking of her power, Lin Qiao was suddenly curious about her old power. She heard that she was able to release a poisonous black fire before.

“Can you tell me about my old power?” She asked.

Liu Jun put one arm before her chest, the other raised to support her chin. “Your old power was a black fire, which was why people call you Netherworld Fire. Your fire was able to melt…or devour things. Once you released your fire, everything within three meters would disappear. If you weren’t fighting against five level-sevens at one time, how could you possibly lose?”

Lin Qiao imagined the fire that Liu Jun described, feeling that she had lost something.

“You were powerful, don’t doubt that,” Liu Jun continued, “I think you might be able to find anything if you go to that place and take a look.”

“What place,” Lin Qiao asked.

“It’s…where you died,” said Liu Jun.

Where she died? She didn’t even remember how she died! Her most recent memory was about that night before the apocalypse when she had a cold.?But then, she figured out that Liu Jun was talking about the place where she was sieged by five level-sevens and died. Not many people knew about that place, so she still needed to find out where it was.

She nodded and replied, “I was going to figure it out. Earlier, I had the same guess which wasn’t confirmed. But now, you’ve made my thoughts much clearer than before.”

Junjun nodded in response.

“Alright,” said Lin Qiao. “Although we don’t need sleep, but I think we should still get some rest. Tomorrow, I’ll talk to them about moving.”
