Apocalyptic Rebirth - C113 Stay
Flammulina. This person must have been afraid that others wouldn’t know that he had a superpower, or that he had a fire-attribute superpower. Even the name itself had to be changed.
And his eyes were especially bold.
Lin Lin looked straight at Flammulina, her tone was cold, “I have something to do, can you explain it now?”
Flammulina was burning with passion. Ice Beauty, he liked it!
“Yes, yes, of course, you guys come in first, Kong Yu go and bring some cups of water.”
Lin Lin rejected Flammulina’s’ good intentions’ and said: “No need, I’m not thirsty.”
Flammulina had a fawning look on his face as he said: “Aiya, it’s just a cup of water. I brought it here, young miss, you can drink it if you want to, if you don’t, Kong Yu, go and bring it over.”
This time, Kong Yu ran rather quickly, and before Lin Lin could say a word, she responded and ran out.
A doctor, a runner.
Then, the Flammulina led them to a leather chair and sat down. Seems like this place was originally the orphanage’s office, but now that it was taken over by the Flammulina, it could just barely be considered an office.
The Flammulina sat down and retracted his gaze from before, and asked: “What are the two misses’ names?”
He was bald and exuded an air of a rogue. Yet, he had the appearance of a gentleman, which made him out to be out of place.
Lin Lin replied: “Lin Lin.”
Then, Lu Yiyi quickly followed and said: “I am Lu Yiyi.”
Maybe it was because Lu Yiyi’s attitude was passionate, but Flammulina noticed it and nodded her head thoughtfully. She stared at Lu Yiyi until her face was completely red, then she laughed and said: “Lu Yiyi, mm, good name!”
Then he added, “Miss Lin Lin’s name also has a lot of meaning.”
As for what it meant, he understood that as the leader, there was no need for him to explain.
After that, the Flammulina turned to look at Yi Shiyu and Wen Xi, asking curiously, “Then who are these two little brothers of yours?”
This time, Lu Yiyi was not active, and did not speak. Instead, Wen Xi took Lu Yiyi’s arm and coldly said, “I am her son.”
Flammulina was surprised. “Son, I didn’t think that you would have such a grown-up son, Miss Lu.”
However, he also liked young women and the like!
This caused the Flammulina to be confused, “Then does this little brother also mean that?”
Saying that, she looked at Lin Lin, her meaning clear.
Xi Shiyu seemed to be afraid that Lin Lin would be misunderstood, and quickly replied: “No, I’m Sister Lin’s little brother.”
Flammulina laughed, but it was a laugh that made people feel uncomfortable, “So that’s the case, I was just saying, beauties can’t be maintained so well right? Oh right, Miss Lin previously said that you have something to tell me, what is it?”
Lin Lin looked at Lu Yiyi and Wen Xi, and said, “The two of them want to stay in the tribe, is that alright?”
“What is there to be afraid of? As long as our tribe does not lack arms or legs, we can come in as we please.”
The implication of this was that if one was physically disabled and did not contribute to the tribe, then they would be rejected.
“However, it’s just that Miss Lu and her son are staying, isn’t Miss Lin staying too?”
Lin Lin replied, “No, I’m going to look for my family.”
She was already used to using this lie twice, so she wouldn’t be so stupid as to expose it. On the other hand, Wen Xi and Lu Yiyi didn’t even know if she was lying or telling the truth.
A trace of unknown light flashed across Flammulina’s eyes, “Family, I wonder where the family members of Miss Lin are. Are they in P City?”
“City E.”
E City was still a distance away from P City, but it was in the same direction as P City, so when Lin Lin said she wanted to go to E City, there were no loopholes.
“Miss Lin saw that Lin Lin did not seem to have the intention to stay behind and started to keep people around,” Miss Lin said, “Miss Lin, look, there are monsters everywhere outside, it is not safe for a woman and a child to stay outside. If you stay in our tribe, we will treat our tribe’s members with great care, in a few days I will gather some people to help you find your loved ones in E City, what do you think?”
Flammulina’s face was sincere. Furthermore, what he had said was indeed very alluring. If it was an ordinary girl or child who had heard of such conditions, they would definitely nod their heads in agreement. However, was it really that simple?
If Lin Lin and Xi Shiyu were really ordinary women and children, why would this Flammulina propose conditions that were so dangerous to him for the sake of two people she had just met? Going to E City to look for people was just like before the apocalypse, although it was a bit troublesome, but now, there was only death and no life.
To say that the Flammulina had no ulterior motives, even a fool would not believe it.
Furthermore, would the leader of a tribe really take such a huge risk just for a woman and send a few of his brothers to their deaths for nothing?
I’m afraid I’ll have to show you a big cake first. I’ll say it’s a few days later, but how do you know how long those few days will be?
Lin Lin replied, “Thank you, but there’s no need. Only I know where my family is, and even if you go there, you wouldn’t be able to find them.”
When Flammulina still had something he wanted to say, Lin Lin said again, “But I want to rest for a while with my brother in the tribe, and we’ll leave after a few days. We’ll take responsibility for the food and drinks, and I hope you can arrange our residences.”
Although she said that she would be resting for a few days, if anything were to happen to her, or if she was allowed to live here forever, when she went out to face those Zombie, she would probably throw him out and hug his leg tightly, not wanting to go out!
Xi Shiyu seemed to not understand what Lin Lin was thinking and wanted to ask, but Lin Lin’s eyes were always on the Flammulina, she did not even glance at him. It was likely that every decision Lin Lin made had its own thoughts and goals, and she had definitely seen through the ill intentions of that Flammulina.
Lin Lin was a Ranker, and the higher his cultivation, the more difficult it was to see through, so he did not need to worry too much.
Flammulina laughed out loud, “Aiya, Miss Lin, look at how shocked I am. Alright, let’s just stay in our tribe for a few days, as for food and drinks, or anything else, don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything for you guys.”
They spoke as if they were familiar with each other, as if they had only met for an hour, and this Flammulina didn’t seem like a hospitable person at all.
To be able to expose his malicious intentions, perhaps it was because he was too confident in himself or the tribe.
And Lin Lin had come to break his confidence!
Just as they were chatting, there was a knock on the door. Flammulina and Lin Lin thought that it was someone who had brought water back, but they did not expect that it was someone else.
That person was surprised to find that other than Flammulina, there were others. However, he still greeted the Flammulina first.
“Flammulina.”
Although they were suddenly interrupted, the two beauties still left the Flammulina in a good mood, and immediately asked the man with a smile, “Ting Er, what’s the matter?”
Ting Er looked at Lin Lin and the others, he looked hesitant and did not want to say what it was about, “Boss, I have something to say to you.”
The Flammulina gave Ting Er a look, and Ting Er immediately came over and leaned close to the Flammulina’s ear, whispering a few words into it.
Although Lin Lin was afraid that the Flammulina would discover his special ability from the very beginning and kept it as his own, his body had actually been strengthened. That Ting Er’s voice was indeed soft, but she could still faintly hear a few words.
“Little brat …” Make a ruckus … Not eating … To see you… “No way.”
When Ting Er finished speaking and stood up, Lin Lin also shifted his gaze, looking at the decorations in the room, then casually looked at Flammulina, as though he was not concerned about the two before, nor was there any flaw.
The Flammulina was very concerned about what Ting Er had said, he frowned, but he saw a woman he liked sitting in front of him, laughed and said: “Miss Lin, I have something to do later. How about this, I’ll let Ting Er help you guys settle things first, you guys drive for so long, rest a bit, I’ll come find you guys later.”
Lin Lin nodded her head, agreeing with the Flammulina’s arrangement.
Then, the Flammulina spoke a few words to Ting Er, as if to ask him to properly arrange a few people. Ting Er nodded his head, he was very clear of all of this, he had done this kind of thing several times, it was just arranging the rooms and eating based on their gender.
If you live in a nice room, you can stay in a tent.
The women ate bread and milk, while the men just randomly chose a bun.
Soon after, Lin Lin and the rest were brought out by Ting Er. Before closing the door, Lin Lin turned her head to look, just in time to see Flammulina taking out a bunch of keys from a drawer.
Little kid, key.
If it was any ordinary person, just by hearing these few words, they were unable to link up much, but they did know a little about the tribe, and the thing he was concerned with was Lin Lin. He quickly thought about who this brat Ting Er was talking about, and why did Flammulina take out a bunch of keys.
The brat who wanted to see the Flammulina without eating or drinking was most likely that healer, and this Flammulina must have locked him up somewhere. If Lin Lin wanted to save him, she had to get the key in the drawer of the office.
Ting Er quickly helped them settle everything. After knowing that Xi Shiyu was Lin Lin’s little brother and Wen Xi was her son, he hesitated for a moment, but still arranged living quarters for the four of them in the orphanage.
Wen Xi and his room was at the very end of the corridor, while Xi Shiyu and Lin Lin were at the exit. Although it would be a little noisy during sleep, Lin Lin preferred to stay in the room near the exit.
The room was not big, but it had a toilet and a window.
After arranging living quarters, Ting Er then went to get food for Lin Lin and the others, they were all given a box of milk and bread.
After finishing everything, Ting Er seemed to still have some matters to attend to, so he left in a hurry.
Lu Yiyi and Wen Xi both returned to their own rooms, no matter what they were doing or what they were thinking, Lin Lin couldn’t care less right now.
In short, they seemed to be very satisfied with the place and did not refuse to stay.
As for her and Xi Shiyu, after they save healer, they would be able to leave. What happened afterwards had nothing to do with her.
Xi Shiyu did not return to her room, but sat on the chair in Lin Lin’s room and drank a box of milk before speaking.
“Sister Lin, why are we staying?”
