“We are outside the door! If there's anything wrong, yell for us and I will be the first to come in to help you!” Zhang ShengLi said in a worried voice, concerned for Lee Miao’s safety.

“I know! If there's anything wrong I'll call for you!” Lee Miao replied, smiling, feeling very sweet inside.

“Sister Lee, Brother ShengLi treats you really well! After he gained more power, no one dares bully you. If my Hu Jun awakened his ability, I doubt that Zhang Hua would dare speak that brazenly.” Zhou JingJing envied the caring shout that Lee Miao got.

Lee Miao’s strength was apparently very poor, only comparable to that of a level 2 or 3 player. Zhou JingJing had capabilities to match that of a level 4 player, but that was still no match for Lee Miao’s boyfriend who had reached level 5, and had awakened his ability. So whoever disrespected Lee Miao meant they disrespected Zhang ShengLi as well; no one dared to try anything funny with Lee Miao.

“As long as you follow Elder Liu, you will have an opportunity to kill a Variant Zombie to awaken your ability. There's no need to worry about not having face. It is very hard to survive in the apocalyptic world, so being together right now is already lucky. When you go back, don't start arguing again with Zhang Hua. This will only make it hard for your boyfriend.” Lee Miao said to Zhou JingJing.

“Okay thank you Sister Lee Miao. I will try to take your advice and not get angry at him. I will just think of it as a dog nipping at me.” Zhou JingJing said that she would let go of some of the anger from before, but deep down the grudge was still there.

“That's good. If you two continue to argue, Elder Liu will not be happy. Even though he didn't say it, he didn't look too happy. If Zhang ShengLi didn't stop you guys, Elder Liu might have gotten angry enough to kill you both. Remember that warning he said earlier?” Lee Miao continued.

“Ah… it could be that my reaction earlier was too emotional. I hope it didn't negatively influence Elder Liu’s impression on my Hu Jun,” Zhou JingJing said listening up to this point, her expression disappointed.

“That won't happen. Elder Liu isn't the type to be emotional about this sort of stuff. The two of you just need to behave. He will treat you the same as everyone,” Lee Miao replied to Zhou JingJing.

As the conversation died down, the bathroom became quiet.

“Sister Lee Miao, do you smell something strange?” Zhou JingJing covered her nose as she asked Lee Miao, who was in the next stall over. Zhou JingJing was questioning whether her sense of smell was accurate so she asked Lee Miao to confirm it.

However, in the next stall over, Lee Miao didn’t reply to Zhou JingJing.

“Sister Lee?” Zhou JingJing asked again, feeling something was off, and this time she knocked on the wooden stall.

Still no response.

“Sister Lee! Are you still there?” Zhou JingJing felt as if something was wrong. So she screamed out and bent over to look through the bottom gap between the stalls...

What she saw was an empty space where the feet were supposed to be. There was no one squatting inside there!

Lee Miao wasn't there. Then who was there talking to her before?
