Chapter Twenty-Four: Unveiling the Space
Qin Yu decided to hasten the journey to S City. To avoid delays caused by concerns about supplies along the way, she resolved to reveal the existence of her spatial ability. She had observed this group, intentionally probing them from time to time, and had found them trustworthy. Thus...
Everyone sat together, watching Qin Yu’s serious expression, their hearts a little tense. Just as they wondered if something major was about to happen, they heard her say, “Actually, I’ve hidden something from you.” Qin Yu paused, as if searching for the right words, which made the group anxious. Hurry up and speak—had she sensed danger? Were they in trouble?
“In fact, besides being a water ability user, I also possess spatial abilities. Though my space isn’t as large as that woman Wang Yan’s, it’s still about a hundred square meters…” Qin Yu finished and carefully watched their faces, ready to act at the slightest sign of trouble. Her gaze darkened.
Upon hearing this, the group exhaled in relief. She had startled them; they thought something serious was afoot. So this was it~ Speaking of which, since Qin Yu had spatial abilities, based on what they knew of her, there must be plenty of food stored inside. Their gazes towards her softened and grew hopeful.
Qin Yu could only smile wryly. She’d anticipated all sorts of reactions—surprise, envy, jealousy… But what was this? What was with those dreamy, expectant expressions?
“Well… I’ve stored up a lot of supplies, and my space is nearly full… so…” Qin Yu said with a hint of embarrassment.
Suddenly, everyone understood. Qin Yu wanted to help them solve their food problem. Did it mean they were being used? But why did it feel so good?
“Xiao Yu, your space is a hundred square meters~ Well, it’s not as big as Wang Yan’s, but you’re in our team now… unlike… Hmph! If I ever meet her again… hehe…” Zhao Meng suddenly spoke.
Everyone instantly caught Zhao Meng’s meaning: she was reminding them not to betray the group. Thinking of that woman Wang Yan made them grind their teeth in anger. They had saved her, yet she never showed gratitude, constantly bossed them around, and they had once been fascinated by her—after all, a spatial ability user could carry plenty of supplies.
But she had told another squad that they bullied her, and even took their supplies to join that team. It was only a small portion, but it had soured their mood. Spatial ability? Hmph… Now they had one too~ How delightful! Now they could eat their fill every day and chop down more zombies!
Qin Yu watched them lost in their own fantasies, and suddenly wondered if she’d made a mistake…
Xia Cheng observed Qin Yu standing in the middle, helpless, surrounded by a group of rough men gazing at her with longing and hope, but without a trace of impure thoughts. He smiled slightly. What a remarkable woman, wasn’t she? Someone like that really inspired loyalty… Besides, his beloved was still a die-hard fan of that woman. Thinking of this, he sighed softly.
Seeing the joy in everyone’s eyes, Qin Yu relaxed and cast her gaze to the distant horizon.
S City, wait for me!
