“There is a doll inside a doll, another doll inside that doll,
Yet another doll inside that doll, and then another within that;
And one day I asked the smallest doll-
‘Little doll, are you aware of how many dolls you are inside?’
Hearing this much, it said to me-
‘There is a world inside this world, inside that world is another one,
Yet another world inside the latter, then another one within that;
And can you gauge the number of worlds you reside in, o human?’”

-'Gudiya' by Harivansh Rai Bachchan

(The episode opens with Cutie Pie and Charlie in the sky)

Cutie pie: I saw a vision of something going to happen, that could cause this town to be destroyed.

Charlie: Why tell me? 

Cutie pie: Because I sensed the town will go in a panic, and I don't want that, I sense you are good at keeping secrets.

Charlie: You can read minds.

Cutie pie: How did you know?

Charlie: I'm a big comic book fan.

Cutie pie: (nods) Okay, makes sense (looking concerned) will you keep my secret?

Charlie: Yes, but wait! You are going to leave the town right after we threw you a party.

Cutie pie: Sorry, but please keep your promise

(Cutie pie puts Kevin by a table and flies away in quick speed)

Miss J: Where did Cutie pie go?

Kevin: She is going to the mountains to meditate 

Miss J: So, she has absorbed that knowledge because of the incident, I'm going to put that into my notebook.

Kevin: Great

(Kevin walks to his house, closes the door, goes into his room; look under his bed, and gets a comic, then walks out of the house with a smile)

(Cutie Pie is flying high into the air and sees the giant snake again along with a tree monster with a big gun and she saw a big screen showing the small town)

The giant Snake: It's you.

Cutie pie: For one (sparkly eyes) thank you for giving me these powers (skull eyes) and if you don't want to die, back away

The giant snake: What?

(Cutie pie's snake tail goes through the tree monster and the screen)

(The tree monster turn into dust and the screen broke)

Doll: You are not going anywhere.

The giant snake (confused): Why not?

Doll: Because you gave that kid powers, having to read her mind knowing how she feels, so you are responsible for her.

The giant snake: And If I refuse

Doll: Then, you end up like (points to where the dust is) your friend

The giant snake: I don't believe you

(Doll snaps her fingers, the giant snake turns into dust leaving his mouth)

The giant Snake: Okay, I believe you.

(Episode ends)

A little girl geta mutant powers and living in a small town

"Look!" Fang Xinxin laughed. "This is everyone's so-called Brother Nan. It turns out he has been locked at home like a trapped animal, unable to leave the house."
"You…" Jiang Xingnan mocked her back. "Ugly fattie, this young master will not waste time arguing with you. You better not scream for help later."
When all the students heard him, they felt that Fang Xinxin was about to be doomed. 
At this moment, a young man dressed in a uniform from a delivery company knocked against the classroom door. "May I know who Fang Xinxin is?"
It was common for students to receive packages in class. No one was surprised.
Someone pointed at Fang Xinxin, who was seated on the last row. "There she is." 
The young man carried an unpackaged, fat doll towards Fang Xinxin. "Please receive this."
"I didn't order anything." 
"Someone ordered this for you. It was custom made. Please accept it." The delivery worker shoved the doll into her arms and did not wait for her response before he turned to leave.
One of the girls in class was curious. "Fang Xinxin, that doll is so fat. There are also little dots on her face. It was basically made based on your appearance."
"Who would make a custom doll based on your appearance? Is it your fiancé, Ke Tianbao?"
Everyone discussed it heatedly among themselves.
All of a sudden, a thin, ink-black head poked out of the doll's chest and then started to slither out of it.
Everyone discovered that there was a hole in the doll's chest.
"Ah, there's a snake in the doll!" The first student who saw it screamed.
Everyone immediately ran off to the sides and stayed far away from her.
Jiang Xingnan was buffing down his nails casually. He then blew the little fragments away. "I already told you. This young master does not have any schemes. Fang Xinxin was the one who accepted the delivery herself. I have so many witnesses. There are no schemes involved." 
"Jiang Xingnan, so you were the one who did this! When did Xinxin receive the package? The delivery man shoved the doll into her arms and ran away!" Sun Jiamu was pale with fright. "You bad man! Quickly get rid of the snake!"
"Hahaha! How can the two words 'bad man' be sufficient to describe this young master?" Jiang Xingnan laughed arrogantly. "I gifted the snake to Fang Xinxin. How could I possibly take the gift back?" 
He appeared as though he was not scared of the snake at all.
Just as everyone assumed Fang Xinxin would faint from fright, she stood up from her seat. She carried the doll and made her way through several tables to arrive before Jiang Xingnan. 
Jiang Xingna's complexion turned pale. "What… what are you doing?" 
"Isn't it just a snake? Did you think it would be able to frighten your grandmother?" Fang Xinxin waved the doll in front of him. Half of the snake's body had already come out. It dangled in the air and hissed. 
"Take… take it away!" Jiang Xingnan stuttered. His earlier, graceful and arrogant appearance while drinking coffee had completely disappeared at this moment.
"Aiyo, look at Brother Nan's reaction. Are you afraid of snakes?" Fang Xinxin seemed to notice something. "Since you were kind enough to not scheme against me, and openly admitted to gifting the snake to me, I will also not scheme against you." 
She brought a pair of gloves out from her pocket and put them on. She then plucked the snake out of the doll and brought it close to Jiang Xingnan. The snake immediately coiled it's long body around Jiang Xingnan's neck. 


"It's my first time. I'm afraid of pain. Be gentle…" Fang Xinxin's body is stiff with anxiety. 
Bai Qinghao pinches her dotingly. "We're just swimming. I didn't pull you with too much force; how did you manage to flop into the water like that?" 
In their previous life, she had been overweight. Her face was covered in acne. Yet, he still forcefully ate her up. Exactly how much did he love her? However, she never noticed his sincerity and blindly pursued a scheming bastard. In the end, she was left blind and half-paralyzed. 
After receiving a second chance, she finally understands that her poor appearance was caused by the 'drugs' her sister had added into her skincare products. In this lifetime, she chooses to distance herself away from the bastard, to lose weight, and to 'treat' her face. She recovers her seductive figure and outstanding looks, treasuring her husband's love. They then sweetly collaborate to torture the bastard and give birth to a little 'dumpling'…

In Aliza's research room which is quite large and filled with laboratory equipment, her was activating her magic to try to extract information from the doll given by King Louis after him destroying one of the Behemoth's Order members.
In Aliza's research room which is quite large and filled with laboratory equipment, her was activating her magic to try to extract information from the doll given by King Louis after destroying one of the Behemoth's Order members.
A small doll the size of a soccer ball and almost round with no hands and feet, only black.
"How about the research with the cursed doll?" King Louis entered into the research room to confirm the curse doll research.
"Oh, so that's how to summon this strange doll. It's been a while since I tried to extract this cursed doll, but there hasn't been any reaction at all." Aliza was sweating a little after a while of activating her magic.
A few moments later, the cursed doll lying on the table began to react, black smoke came out a little and began to envelop the cursed doll.
The smoke that enveloped the cursed doll slowly disappeared. The cursed doll that was initially only black slowly began to turn white to form a texture that was familiar to Aliza and King Louis.
"Your Majesty ... this ..." Aliza immediately stopped her magic activation after the cursed doll changed its shape and immediately covered her mouth with both hands as if she couldn't believe what she saw.
The cursed doll turned into a human skull, Aliza walked a few steps back away from the cursed doll that had changed its texture and hit King Louis's chest.
"This is utterly wicked and cruel, how could someone have the heart to do that." Aliza shed a few sad tears.
"Damn it! So they seriously want to overthrow the entire kingdom." King Louis calmed Aliza gently.
"What kind of magic is Your Majesty? While studying magic, I really didn't know the deviation magic I just saw." Aliza looked up at King Louis with a sad face.
"Indeed, what I expected from the best students of the magic academy, I never thought you would know that it was Deviation Magic. It was the magic of Lord Behemoth's Order who had died." King Louis told Aliza about the origin of Perversion Magic which she had just seen.
"Lord Crimson? Who was killed by 3 Legendary Heroes 15 years ago?" Aliza knew quite a bit about Lord Behemoth's Order before.
"Yes, Lord Crimson. He is a dangerous figure. He intends to rule the world with countless death warriors along with his trusted men, 11 Blaze Brigade." King Louis gently pushed Aliza from her chest and walked closer to the human skull on the table.
"I only know a little about Lord Crimson from some of the literature I read when I was in the magic academy. There aren't too many things to explain Lord Crimson or his subordinates. Just explain the evil aims and more prowess of the Legendary Heroes." Aliza walks next to King Louis.
"Yes, it is because the Celestial Council agreed to eliminate that dark incident from the next generations. But some people who felt and saw the dark incident did not want to forget and made a book and distributed it illegally." King Louis explained while picking up the skull.
"At that time, I was a kid, and I only found out that my father and my mother left on duty 15 years ago. And since that breakup, they never came back." Aliza began to shed her tears when discussing her breakup with her parents, who made an impression on her heart.
"Yeah, I can't let that happen again. All I need to do is crush them back." King Louis squeezed the skull's head into pieces with an angry expression.
"Your Majesty! As your General, I will always serve you." Aliza immediately knelt down after feeling the strong determination from King Louis.
"Clean up the skull fragments Aliza, and bury her properly." King Louis gave the order after his anger subsided a little.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Aliza immediately took a small box to place the skull fragments.
When King Louis stepped towards the door, the skull fragment on the floor turned into a black snake, which immediately bit King Louis's hand.
"Ouch!" King Louis raised his hand, which was bitten by a snake and caught the snake with the other and destroyed it instantly with his magic.
"Your Majesty!" Aliza dropped the small box when she heard King Louis scream a little. And immediately approached him.
"I let my guard down." King Louis broke out in a cold sweat after his arm was bitten by a black snake.
Aliza asks him to sit in a chair, and he immediately checks King Louis's snake-bitten hand.
"The black snake just now is not an ordinary poisonous snake, it spreads a strange virus to you." Aliza panics when checking King Louis's wound that the black snake inflicted with her magic.
"Yeah, I know that. I can feel my hand throb." King Louis felt a little pain from the wound.
"Should I call a doctor?" Aliza panicked and immediately wanted to run to call a doctor.
King Louis caught Aliza's hand as she was about to call a doctor, "No need, even a talented magician like you doesn't recognize this virus, let alone the royal doctor." King Louis held Aliza away.
"Then what should I do? I'm sorry I let my guard down even though I was here." Aliza fell and felt guilty for letting King Louis be attacked by a snake in her room.
"No it's not your fault, just bandage this wound. And don't tell anyone." King Louis asked Aliza to take bandages and keep this incident a secret from anyone, including Anastasia and Nathan.
Aliza immediately took the bandages in the first aid kit. She immediately returned to King Louis, who was sitting in a chair. But unexpectedly by Aliza, the wound that had been in the shape of a row of dots now turned into a black spot on King Louis's arm.
"The virus is slowly starting to spread Your Majesty, I didn't expect that it would make black spots like this. I will contain it from spreading with my magic, but it won't last long." Aliza panicked even more when she saw the spot on King Louis's arm and began to activate magic to contain the spread of the virus,
"Please, Aliza." King Louis straightened his hand to activate Aliza's magic.
After the virus's spread was successfully contained, Aliza immediately bandaged the wound with a white bandage. King Louis also asked her not to touch the black spot on his arm.
"This is much better." King Louis held a bandage in his hand to make sure the wound was okay.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. This is all I can do." Aliza again lied in front of King Louis.
"Yes, this is enough. Thank you, Aliza." King Louis stood up and immediately left Aliza's laboratory room.

"How do you know Prince Leonard, if I was planting a garden?" Anastasia is shocked because her secret about the garden she just created was discovered by him.
"Yes, because I'm your fiancé." Prince Leonard smiled upon seeing Anastasia's cute surprised expression.
'Indeed, as people are talking about, the male side will get more information than the female side. But my secret garden is known only to Helena and her gardeners, who gave the leak? ' Anastasia paused and thought about the reason he knew the private garden.
"Well, it's no wonder you look happy when you are in the flower garden of the Nudora Kingdom. Would you like to show me?" Tiana grabbed Anastasia's hand in joy.
"I didn't know about that, so you made a garden and didn't invite me to do it together?" Nathan was gloomy because he did not know that his elder sister was building a garden.
"Hehe, did you find out? Not a big garden because I just planted one kind of flower." Anastasia tilts her head and leads them to her secret garden.
"This is it." Anastasia shows us a vacant lot surrounded by a fence.
"Whoa! Eh? Where are the plants, Anna?" Tiana ran a little to see the garden that Anastasia had made.
"Yes, where is the garden, elder sister?" Nathan looked around the field where his elder sister had shown him.
"What? Isn't there?" Anastasia immediately rushes to the vacant lot to see the Cecilia flower she planted a few days ago.
"Are you sure this is the place?" Prince Leonard confirmed to Anastasia.
"Yes, I'm pretty sure this is where it is. Because the gardener made the fence around my secret garden." Anastasia looked around to make sure that it was where she planted Cecilia Flower.
Tiana immediately inspects the vacant lot that Anastasia means as a garden.
"Did you grow Cecilia Flowers?" she asked Anastasia after confirming something in the seed that her planted.
"Yes, that's right. Do you know anything?" Anastasia answered curiously.
"But as far as I know Cecilia Flower is a plant that grows because of the wind. While your land is covered by a fence." Tiana explained to Anastasia the reason why the flowers were not growing.
"Wow, you know a lot about flowers, Tiana." Anastasia was amazed by Tiana's knowledge.
"Yeah, that makes sense. That's why the Cecilia Flower in the castle grounds is on a large area, so the wind can blow it away. Then your garden is on lower ground than the surrounding land." Prince Leonard caught Cecilia Flower's glimpse as he walked towards Anastasia's secret garden, and concluded.
"Turns out you know a lot, don't you?" Anastasia shook Tiana's shoulder in exasperation.

--------

This is my first book ever written. Apologize for the bad writing. I am slowly editing it but it takes time. Once you get to the next chapter, the quality gets much better.

The three beasts were bound in their cage and the mouth of the beast was covered with a kind of plaster. After a few minutes of seeing the three beasts, Juno went to his room and a few minutes later he returned to his gym, but this time he was carrying a sword that he bought at the semongk0 shop. Juno took out the sword from its sheath while observing the beautiful shape of the sword, then he turned his gaze to one of the beasts.
Juno then brought his stuffed bird and approached him to one of the beast cages. The first beast he chose to experiment with was the Ring Snake. The snake was seen coiled in a cage where on its body part it looked like it was wrapped in some kind of cloth tape so that the snake was very difficult to move.
Juno then began to open the cage, at the top there was a kind of padlock with a code. Juno entered some kind of code given by the shop employee which then opened the lock. Juno started to open the top of the cage with his left hand and his right hand holding the sword. After opening, Juno felt that he was being seen by something terrifying which was actually the snake's gaze. While swallowing his own saliva, Juno gripped his sword tightly with both hands and stabbed it into the snake, he stabbed the snake continuously until the snake didn't move anymore. At first, when he stabbed the beast, he missed one or three times but after several stabs, the stab of his sword hit the snake's vital parts including the snake's head. Juno breathed a sigh of relief as he wiped his sweat, this was the first time he had killed a beast.
Juno immediately sat down and flowed his magic energy into his bird doll. The bird then began to move, flap its wings and fly around the snake's cage, after twice turning the bird entered the cage and stood on the snake's corpse. A few moments later the magic energy from the snake came out and began to enter the bird doll's body. But then Juno's face looked confused, the magic energy did begin to move into the body but the bird couldn't absorb the energy, until a few minutes later the bird still couldn't absorb the magic energy from the snake.
"At this rate the snake magic energy will disappear" thought Juno with a confused face. Not wanting to waste any more time, Juno took out the bird doll and walked closer to the snake then Juno began to absorb the magic energy from the snake for himself. The energy absorption only lasts about five minutes until there is no more energy left in the snake. After finishing absorbing the snake's magic energy Juno felt the magic energy in his body increase, the increase in magic energy made his mind more comfortable but after a few moments he felt all parts of his body hurt.
"Tch, I have to exercise more, if not my body will be damaged like this," said Juno, a little confused. The increase in magic energy whether it is in terms of quantity or quality must be accompanied by an increase in strength and endurance, if it is not balanced it will damage the body or mind.
Juno then stood up and started doing warm-up activities followed by simple exercise in his gym, he did jogging on the treadmill, sit-ups, push-ups, score jumps, etc. After about an hour of exercising, Juno rested while meditating with the breathing technique to circulate his magical energy to all parts of his body which slowly strengthened his organs or all parts of his body. Breathing techniques are common things people do, it's just that each person's breathing technique can be different. The breathing technique that Juno used was a breathing technique taught by his grandfather, and it was a breathing technique that was only special in the Juno family.
After doing the Breathing Technique for about 30 minutes, Juno opened his eyes and let out a long breath. Juno then checked his body parts.
"So, this feels like doing a breathing technique after absorbing magic energy" said Juno happily. He should have done this breathing technique while absorbing the magic energy from the snake earlier, but he forgot about it and just absorbed the magic energy of the snake earlier, which put too much strain on his body.
After checking his body parts Juno started exercising again, he felt that his body was not strong enough right now, he exercised until he felt that his body was very tired. Then Juno performed another breathing technique and started circulating magic energy in his body to the maximum extent that his body could absorb it. It was evening now, and Juno went out of the apartment to find food. And after dinner he went home and went straight to sleep.
The next morning, Juno started exercising again and doing his breathing technique, he was determined to do this every day at least twice, morning and evening. After doing his exercise routine, Juno started to train his skills again by trying to fly the birds here and there, this made Juno know more about his abilities. Currently Juno can fly his bird puppet up to five meters away from him, this distance is a bit disappointing, but he realizes this control distance will increase as his strength increases.
Juno then began to open the cage of the squirrel-shaped beast, the squirrel was still in the cage with its legs tied and its mouth in plaster. Juno then began to kill the squirrel, this time he needed one slash, he then began try to absorb the magic energy from the squirrel using his bird doll. After the bird doll landed and stood beside the squirrel, the squirrel's magic energy began to come out and move into the bird doll's body. What then surprised Juno was that at this time his bird puppet could absorb the energy from the squirrel corpse. After about 15 minutes, there was no more energy left in the body of the squirrel corpse. The bird that was in the squirrel cage then started to fly out of the cage again and landed in Juno's hands.
Currently the bird doll looks more natural where the feathers on the surface of the bird which were originally stiff are now softer and smoother and look like bird feathers in general. The outer appearance of the bird is the same as in normal birds, it's just that the movement of the bird when flying is still a little stiff and looks unnatural. After observing the outer appearance of the bird, Juno started to control the bird to fly again, besides the outer appearance changed he didn't see any other changes, this made him a little confused.
"Is this bird's ability to fly only, what is meant by a doll that has that ability is this bird's ability to fly -_- #" thought Juno with an annoyed face. Juno then does various things with his bird, but the bird can only fly, even though the bird looks more natural but the flying style is still a little stiff and Juno can't change this bird's flying style.
"Does this bird of mine lack the magic energy absorbed to awaken its power, huh! It must be because of that!" Juno said excitedly, he then turned his gaze to the last cage which contained a beast shaped like a cat. Juno impatiently opened the cage of the beast and slashed it directly with his sword, with two slashes the cat died instantly.
Juno then aimed the bird puppet and entered the cage, but after trying to absorb the magic energy from the beast's corpse, the bird puppet couldn't absorb the magic energy of the beast just like the first beast that Juno killed. This made him confused and annoyed, he then tried several times but to no avail. With a face full of despair, Juno absorbed the magic energy from the beast into his own body. Juno sat beside the cage while absorbing the magical energy from the beast as he also performed the breathing technique.
After finishing absorbing all the magic energy, Juno observed the changes in his body, he felt his body getting stronger even though he had not broken into stage 1 he felt he was close to that limit. Currently Juno is still at stage 0, where at this stage are people who can be said to be the weakest in this world. And Juno only started doing the breathing technique when he was 8 years old, even though he was taught breathing techniques by his grandfather since he was young, Juno only mastered his breathing technique at the age of 8 while other people who have enough resources at the age of 8 must have broken through stage 1.
After two years of doing the breathing technique, Juno has not yet broken through to stage 1 because he was very lazy to do this before, but now he is determined to do this regularly to increase his strength. This made him a little sorry that he wasn't practicing as much as ever. Until the day of entering school, he is determined to have entered stage 2, even though children his age are generally only at stage 1. Only children who have enough resources at the age of 10 have entered stage 2 and above.
Juno then got up and did his sports activities to increase his physical strength, then continued with breathing techniques. Juno repeated these two things over and over until the sun set, he came out of the gym with his clothes soaked with sweat, he was very hungry right now. Juno went straight to his bathroom and took a shower, after that he went to the kitchen and cooked noodles and eggs. Juno ate his noodle dishes in the living room while watching TV. He also reads some trending news from the hologram of his watch.
After eating he then started to think again about his abilities, he collected the data he had done so far while using his abilities, he thought there might be a clue he could find. Juno looks confused because it is possible that his bird doll can only absorb certain wild animals. He looked at the data he had collected, from the bamen he bought to the beasts he bought. After reading all the data over and over again, Juno finally understood a thing or two. First, the type of bamen that he bought was mostly bamen that had the potential to have the ability of gravity, secondly, the beast he bought whose magic energy could be absorbed by his puppet bird also had an ability effect associated with the element of gravity.
"I see, I will most likely have to buy another beast, but it has to have the ability effect associated with the element of gravity" thought Juno while nodding his head. Juno plans that tomorrow he will go again to the Bolo Beast Market, while thinking about this he is playing with the bird doll he controls, the bird doll flies around Juno.
After reading some of today's trending news and resting for almost an hour, Juno immediately continued his training, he didn't want to be lazy anymore. Juno practiced until almost midnight, after training he immediately ate egg noodles again and went straight to sleep, he was tired and didn't take a shower before going to sleep.

This is the world where we live in, the world with humans in it, the world with animals and plants live in, but, this world have change or it was different world now. This world or to be specific is a planet which bigger than earth, approximately five times more bigger than earth, the world of human which have ability, the world of all living things which have different ability to protect themselves. This planet have more than one intelligent races like human or more smart than humans, maybe. Humans have to protect themselves and their homeland. In this planet not only intelligent creature which is threatening but mutated creature threaten too. This is the story about a man in this planet, with his ability he have dreams that he will become a strongest man.

Bai Zhenfeng's words had evidently offended her.
"Do you earn very little?" Bai Zhenfeng paused for a moment before finally scoffing at her. The muscles on his old face were extremely tense, and there were little wrinkles at the corner of his eyes. Evidently, he rarely smiled.
"No." Xia Ruoxin looked down slightly and replied in a dignified manner. "Gao Yi will be back soon. If you want me to leave, it's very simple. One word from Gao Yi, and I'll be on my way. Furthermore, I'll leave without any conditions. I won't stay here for another second." She wasn't using Gao Yi to avoid them. It was just because she could tell that Rainy was afraid, and she didn't want her daughter to be any more frightened. 
"I'll see how long you can keep up this act for." Bai Zhenfeng flung his hand. Upon hearing Gao Yi's name, his face turned slightly blue. He understood Gao Yi's personality very well. He took in a deep breath, controlling his urge to chase this woman out. He was afraid that Gao Yi would leave the house again for another few years. What would happen to Luoyin then? 
How long was she going to have to wait again? Luoyin, this child, she was also another stubborn one. He could not care about Gao Yi, but he couldn't do that to his own daughter. Furthermore, he didn't put so much effort into raising Gao Yi for him to become somebody's convenient accessory.
"Luoyin, let's go." Bai Zhenfeng simply said. Just as Bai Luoyin was about to leave—suddenly, a blood-curdling smile arose on her face. Rainy tightly hugged onto Xia Ruoxin's neck, instinctively feeling scared. 
"Mommy, that Aunty looks so ugly when she smiles. She looked just like the snake spirit in the calabash." Rainy furrowed her eyebrows. However, her small voice was heard by Bai Luoyin. 
She firmly gripped her hands. This damn bastard's child, how dare she call her a snake spirit. Xia Ruoxin must have taught her that. She wasn't going to forgive her, she definitely wasn't. 
"Rainy, you shouldn't say that, understood?" Xia Ruoxin didn't notice the look of hate in Bai Luoyin's eyes. She simply caressed Rainy's small face, correcting her in disapproval. 
"But she really does look like that." Rainy frustratedly bit her tiny fists. She didn't say anything wrong. She clearly looked like the snake spirit; why did Mommy say that it was wrong of her to say so? 
Xia Ruoxin couldn't help but rub her forehead. This daughter of hers… sometimes, she was so shrewd that it made her a little helpless. She had to reply to this, then reply to that. Furthermore, her daughter's questions were never-ending; therefore, she decided to stop it there. She seemingly had to buy the book 'One Hundred Thousand Whys' to enhance her knowledge. Otherwise, one day, she would not be able to reply to her daughter's questions.
"Alright, go play with your doll." She placed her daughter down, and it was only then that Rainy ran next to the sofa. She picked up her doll and hugged it in her arms. It was just that after playing with it for a few minutes, the door forcefully opened. The doll in Rainy's arms fell onto the floor, and she instantly ran into Xia Ruoxin's arms. 
"Alright, don't be scared, Mommy's here." Xia Ruoxin gently patted her daughter's tiny back. She was frightened again.
"I thought that that was Yi's child, but it turned out to be only yours. Yi sure had some good luck getting this one-for-one deal." Her unbelievably sarcastic voice traveled in from the doorway. Actually, without looking, Xia Ruoxin already knew who had come over.
Other than Bai Luoyin, there was nobody else who hated her daughter and her this much. Xia Ruoxin continued to pat her daughter's back. In return to Bai Luoyin's hostile words, Xia Ruoxin simply furrowed her brows slightly.
Bai Luoyin entered the room uninvited. She sized up everything in the room. This was Gao Yi's room. Even she had only came in here a few times, and yet he was going to let this woman live here? How could she be willing? How could she be able to accept this?
"Gao Yi is mine, Xia Ruoxin. You can't steal him away." Bai Luoyin walked next to Xia Ruoxin and smiled. However, her smile was cold and aloof. There was nothing she couldn't get, and it was like that since she was young.
Xia Ruoxin backed one step away not because she was scared, but because the smell of perfume was too strong.
"Achoo."
"Achoo…"
The sounds of two different sneezes resonated at the same time Rainy rubbed her small cheeks. "Mommy, it smells." She slightly scrunched up her nose. As expected of mother and daughter, they both hated the smell of overly thick perfume. 
This damned bastard's child. Bai Luoyin's expression became nastier. THIS damn bastard's child was definitely doing it on purpose. Just now, she said that she was a snake spirit, and now, she was saying that she was smelly. Xia Ruoxin, this was no doubt the daughter that she had raised. 
Don't think that she couldn't deal with them, and don't be too reassured just because Gao Yi got their back. This was only temporary because she—Bai Luoyin—had never lost. 
Her sharp eyes caught sight of the doll that Rainy had placed on the sofa. Then, she walked over and picked up the doll.
"That's Rainy's doll. Give it back to Rainy." Rainy reached out her small hands. She hated it when other people touched her doll. Mommy bought it for her. Although she had the other doll that Uncle gave her, her favorite doll was still the one that Mommy bought.
"Mrs. Bai, please return the doll to me. That's my daughter's doll." Xia Ruoxin reached out her hands, wanting to take back the doll. She had gotten slightly angry as well.
She could do anything to her. She could scold her or treat her with scorn, but how could she bully her daughter?
"My doll." Rainy flattened her mouth. She looked at her doll which was held in another person's hand, feeling extremely upset. Her doll had never left her side before. She loved that doll a lot, and she hated it when other people held it. 
She hated it! She hated it! She really hated it! Her eyes reddened, and following that, her tears fell onto the floor. Pit-pat, pit-pat.
"Mrs. Bai, please return my daughter's doll to me." Xia Ruoxin repeated herself. If it wasn't for the crying child in her arms, she would have already gone up to snatch Rainy's doll back. 
"Oh, you want your doll? It sure is shabby; could there be bacteria on it?" Bai Luoyin lifted the doll in her hands feeling, slightly repulsed by it. How disgusting. It was already so torn and tattered, and yet she still treated it like a treasure. Back when she was young, she had never taken fancy to these dolls.
She had a house of dolls. What was this compared to that?
"Dolly." Rainy reached out her tiny hands, swaying from time to time. "Give me back the doll. Give back the doll that Mommy bought for Rainy. It's Rainy's." 
"Alright, I'll give it back to you…" Bai Luoyin let out an evil smile. Her hands relaxed, and the doll fell onto the floor. Then, her foot stomped forcefully on the doll.
"My doll!" Rainy instantly started wailing. She had never cried so sadly before, and neither had she cried so loudly before. Xia Ruoxin stared dumbfoundedly at the doll on the floor which had been stepped on. She had yet to regain her senses. She didn't even know that Bai Luoyin had contentedly lifted her chin before swaggering out of the room.


Her step-sister just died three months ago. Now, she insists on marrying Chu Lui, who is supposed to be her future brother-in-law, the mind behind the Chu Enterprise. The world is sure that she, the new bride-to-be, haa caused her step-sister's death in order to seduce him.

Even her own mother says to her cruelly, "Don't call me 'Mom'. I don't have a daughter as vicious as you."

During their wedding ceremony, her husband-to-be tells her, "I won't kiss you; you disgust me."

All her embarrassment is captured by the numerous cameras present.

He shames her. 'Xia Ruoxin, you went so far just to marry me? I will make your life a living hell.'

And her life indeed becomes a living hell. For his business, he sends her to another man. To right the reputation of his beloved woman, he sends her to company a bunch of men. Later, he marries again, and on his wedding night, she remains in an ice-cold warehouse, giving birth to a girl.

Many years ago, the boy promised, "I'll come back for you when we're older. I'll marry you and make you my little bride."

She was a little surprised. Wu Chengyue didn't find out that she was here, did he?
She hurriedly stepped back and quickly moved to a corner in the hallway, sticking half of her head out from behind the wall to observe the door with one eye.
After that, she saw a soldier turn to open the door and let Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling out.
Wu Yueling's hand was held by her father. She was pouting, looking a little grumpy.
Lin Qiao could tell that the little girl was very unhappy. When she got close enough, she sensed the latter's thoughts. It turned out that the kid wanted to see her. She had been here for days, but still hadn't seen Lin Qiao. That was why she was unhappy.
As Wu Chengyue was coming over, Lin Qiao didn't dare to linger there. She hurriedly moved further backward while watching him try to cheer his daughter up.
"Alright, Ling Ling, can you please give Daddy a smile? Look at your little pouted mouth. I can even hang a cloth on it."
"She'll be back very soon. You really like her, don't you? But, don't you want Daddy anymore?"
"Good girl! We won't go home until we see her, alright?"
Lin Qiao was speechless.
'No! You are going back! Why are you staying here?' she thought.
However, her heart was softened a little when she saw Wu Yueling's little unhappy face. The kid's autistic symptoms became more obvious when she was unhappy. 
She thought that Wu Yueling's autism was going better. But earlier on, she sensed something strange from the bottom of the little girl's heart. It was not obvious, but it did catch her attention.
She crossed her arms and watched Wu Chengyue bring the little girl downstairs with all sorts of doubts. Meanwhile, she carefully thought about the faint trace of brutality which had just flashed across Wu Yueling's mind.
She felt as if the kid was trying to restrain something. It might also be because of the bad mood that she was having now.
Anyhow, she had a bad feeling about the sudden trace of brutality which suddenly appeared in the little one's mind. It made her feel that something bad was going to happen someday.
Since the little one wanted to see her, she decided to secretly meet her… as long as her father didn't know about it.
She thought for a moment, and then had an idea. Next, she flashed into her space.
She glanced at the zombie dog which was still lying upsettingly on the ground, but ignored it. Instead, she walked to the grass and picked a few long grass leaves, then sat down and started weaving.
While weaving, she kept picking more grass leaves until she had a handful of different sized ones.
She wove some grass leaves into a tiny green person, then shredded some soft and tender leaves and wove them into the person's head, making them look like soft, long hair.
Soon, she had made a grass doll and drawn a pair of eyes and a mouth on its face with a pen.
She spent a while gazing at the doll before nodding with satisfaction.
After that, she soaked the doll in the lake water, then shook the extra water off. Next, she went into the small building to look for the rabbit. 
Before long, she dragged that gray rabbit which was already huge and fat out from under a couch. She sat on the couch and put the rabbit on her knees, then placed the doll on the table.
"In fact, the little one would be happier if I sent you out. But, I'd expose myself too soon if I did that. So, I can't let you out."
Wu Chengyue didn't close the window in their room when he took Wu Yueling downstairs for dinner. So, Lin Qiao grasped the opportunity to get in through the window and find their bed. 
They slept on the same bed, as Wu Chengyue was definitely not going to let his daughter sleep alone in a strange place. Also, Wu Yueling refused to sleep alone in a strange room. Staying alone in a strange place might lead to an attack of her illness. 
Lin Qiao felt that the little girl's autism would attack soon anyway if she didn't show up in front of her as soon as possible.
Based on the conversations between some other people that she had overheard, she learned that Wu Chengyue and the little one had already been here for three days. 
She didn't think that waiting three days without seeing her would make Wu Yueling's autism flare up. That made her feel weird.
Judging by what Cheng Wangxue said, Wu Yueling refused to play with Lin Xiaolu. Lin Xiaolu wanted to play with her very much, but she ran away every time. Later on, Lin Xiaolu gave up as well.
So these days, Wu Yueling had been following Wu Chengyue everywhere.
She didn't see Lin Qiao, so she was unhappy; and the unhappiness led to anxiety. After being anxious for three days, she became a little depressed. That was what Lin Qiao sensed from her. 
Lin Qiao walked to the side of the bed that Wu Yueling slept in and put the grass doll under her pillow before leaving. 
She went back to the fifth floor and found Qiu Lili's room. Then, she took out a piece of paper and a pen, writing a note and placing it on Qiu Lili's table.
Next, she turned and left again. She returned to the sweet potato field under Mount Wu, thinking about how to plant crops in it.
Back in the sweet potato field, she entered her space and looked at the strawberry field which was damaged by the zombie dog while chasing the snake. She walked over and squatted helplessly to remove the broken strawberry plants.
While she was cleaning the strawberry field, Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling went back to their room.
Wu Chengyue felt helpless, as his daughter was unhappy. The female zombie didn't show up, and he couldn't find her. He was thinking that if she kept hiding, he would have to figure out a way to make her show up.
Stepping into the room, Wu Yueling quickly dropped her father's hand and got into the bed.
"Ling Ling, you haven't taken a shower yet," Wu Chengyue reminded her. However, she completely ignored him. It was like back in the worst time of her autism. Wu Chengyue knew that her autism was going to flare up again. 
On one hand, the little girl was anxious because she thought that her Daddy lied to her. On the other hand, she looked forward to see Lin Qiao so much. So, the longer she waited, the more disappointed she got.
As her father, Wu Chengyue surely knew how his daughter was feeling right now. So, he was aware that he needed to figure out a way to find that female zombie as soon as possible.
At that moment, the door was pushed open. Xiao Licheng walked in and said to him, "Chief, the fifth floor is the territory of those zombies. Usually, the others aren't allowed to go there. But Miss. Liu told me that Miss. Lu hadn't come back there in days indeed. Also, I've checked the Mount Wu area. Except for the field, there was also a large snake pit there."
"Take a seat," Wu Chengyue pointed at the couch next to him.
Xiao Licheng sat down and continued, "There was a huge mutated snake in that pit. Judging by the traces near the pit, the snake should be as thick as an average size woman's waist. It's missing now as it's not in the pit. Also, a lot of evidences of a struggle were left in the pit. Those traces are new. I think some people have been there recently… more than one group of people."
"Did she go to catch the snake?" said Wu Chengyue with a strange look on his face, "She ate a thigh-thick snake last time."
"Eh… that's possible," said Xiao Licheng. 


Lin Qiao remembers nothing from the past five years since the post-apocalyptic era began. She wakes up only to find herself having become a newborn, superpowered zombie, in a body that used to belong to an evil and notorious woman!

Having kidnapped a girl and raped her father, the previous host met her demise at the very hands of the conspiracies she courted all her life, leaving Lin Qiao no choice but to deal with the consequences while trying to figure out her own past and the fate of her loved ones. 

As for the little girl’s father, can’t he just have a decent fight? He’s a human being, but why is he biting a zombie? She’s the zombie! She’s the one who’s supposed to bite!
