Zombie Sister Strategy-Chapter 1363: Lin Hao's Reaction

The next day at lunchtime, Lin Hao returned to the office together with Lu Meiqing.

"Hey, Ms. Cheng! You brought food to Director Lin again!" Lu Meiqing came into the office to find Cheng Wangxue standing before Lin Hao's desk. On the desk was a lunch box; that should be Lin Hao's lunch.

Seeing Cheng Wangxue, Lin Hao nodded at her and greeted her. Then, he looked around and asked, "Eh? Didn't you bring Xiaolu with you today? Did you bring her here yesterday?"

Cheng Wangxue turned around and stepped to the side as the two entered. She smiled and responded to him while packing the lunch box from his last meal, "No, she's playing with her friends today, so I didn't bring her here."

Lin Xiaolu's friends were none other than Tongtong, Ling Ling, and Teng.

Being reminded by Cheng Wangxue, Lin Hao recalled that Ling Ling and Teng were both staying at Sea City Base earlier, so Xiaolu hadn't seen them for a while. This time, Wu Chengyue had brought the two kids to All Beings Base, so Xiaolu would surely go and play with them.

"Oh, I see!"

Cheng Wangxue nodded at Lu Meiqing smilingly and said, "Alright. I just got here. If you don't have any urgent work to do now, finish the meal while it's still warm. I'm leaving."

While speaking, she pushed the lunch box on the desk slightly toward the center of the desk.

Lin Hao sat down on his chair and nodded as he put down the things in his hands on the desk and said, "Okay, I get it."

Cheng Wangxue picked up the lunch box from his last meal and then left.

"Director, maybe you should go home for meals instead of letting your family bring the food to you all the time," Lu Meiqing said to Lin Hao, sounding casual. While speaking, she brought some files toward the file cabinet on one side of the office.

Lin Hao shrugged as he dragged the lunch box toward himself and opened it, "Do you think I have the time? If I went home for lunch, I'd have to run back here as soon as I finished. That'd be so inconvenient. Actually, I've told them that I can eat in the canteen. They just insist on bringing food to me. What can I do about that?"

Earlier, he was busy working and not feeling hungry. However, once he opened the lunch box and sensed the aroma of the food, his stomach instantly started grumbling.

He was starving! He wanted food!

His eyes were fixed on a spot in the lunch box for a few seconds when he opened the box, but the movements of his hands weren't interrupted. He smoothly opened the box and sniffed at the delicious food. "But, my sister-in-law's food is indeed better than the food from the canteen. This smells so nice!"

Lu Meiqing put the files into the cabinet and turned to find him preparing to eat. She was aware that she shouldn't bother the director while he was eating, so she smiled and said, "That's true. The food from home is certainly much better than the canteen. After all, the cooks in the canteen only think about how to get their jobs done quickly. Well, the food from the canteen is fine for me anyway. It might not be delicious, but it can fill my belly!"

She was only a commoner after all. If she didn't have the job at the hospital, she might not even be able to guarantee herself three meals a day.

While speaking, she stepped out of Lin Hao's office.

After watching her walk out and close the door from the outside, Lin Hao took out the first layer of the lunch box and looked at the rice in the second layer. Next, he took out the rice bowl and found a piece of paper underneath it. That was for him.

Just now, he opened the box to find a red spot by its edge. That red spot only showed up when there was a confidential message in the lunch box. That was why he acted like he was going to enjoy the meal. He did that to let Lu Meiqing know that he needed some private space to eat.

As he expected, Lu Meiqing took the hint and left.

After she left, Lin Hao started reading the secret message from Cheng Wangxue.

He spread the note and read it while raising his eyebrows slightly. His facial expression didn't change drastically, but he did glance at the door. The note warned him that he needed to keep Lin Qiao's file safe, because if some other people found it, the whole base would be in trouble.

Lin Hao wasn't surprised to read the note. After all, Lin Qiao was the leader of a base. It was a normal thing that many wanted to know her secret, not to mention the fact that she died once. Lin Hao felt lucky that the three people who witnessed Lu Tianyu's death were long gone.

He knew that there might be some moles in the base. After all, despite the small size of the base, its population had reached twenty-thousand already. The first few batches of residents were from other bases, and it was reasonable that some of them didn't feel comfortable following Lu Tianyu's lead. Therefore, Lin Hao had been keeping Lin Qiao's personal files strictly secret. He would have burned all those files if they didn't have great research value.

A bunch of zombies lived in Base Number Two. If any of them got pregnant someday, Lin Qiao's case could serve as a guide.

Learning that the person who had been trying to dig out the secret from him was Lu Meiqing who had worked with him for only a few months, Lin Hao twisted his lips slightly.

He hadn't been suspecting her, but he never trusted her either. He didn't trust anyone, in fact.

Through the note, Lin Feng told Lin Hao to act like he didn't know, because he intended to dig out the entire team that was behind Lu Meiqing. Lin Hao burned the note after reading it and then started eating.

Lu Meiqing knitted her brows into a deep frown once she came out of Lin Hao's office.

She walked back to the nurse duty room and sat down with a frown as she started thinking about how to find the secret guarded by Lin Hao. He had been keeping the secret so ridiculously well. It was even as if he had an invisible shield covering his whole body and hiding all his secrets. She had spent months being close around him but still failed to find a way leading to those secrets.

The people she worked for had started to lose patience recently. Huaxia Base had shown its own secret, meaning that what Huaxia people had been secretly planning was about to start officially. If Lu Meiqing and her people failed to deliver some valuable information to Huaxia Base before it took action, the situation might turn for the worse.

That was why she tried other ways. She failed to make a breakthrough with Lin Hao, so she tried the people who were close to him.

Hence, she would show up almost every time Cheng Wangxue or Lin Wenwen came to Lin Hao's office, pretending to run up against them and then have a chat with them. It would be easier for her to get the information she wanted if she became friends with them after all.
