I Don't Just Know How to Eat

"I will report back immediately and look for an opportunity for my sister."

Ning Xuan, after hearing this, could hardly sit still and was eager to act quickly.

"Take this."

Ning Yu handed her a screen, a **【Long-Distance One-Time Communication Device】** she had exchanged from the system space.

Although it could only be used once for about 10 minutes, its price was a staggering 6666 points.

After all, in this apocalyptic world, ordinary people had no way to communicate via phone or the internet.

But for Ning Yu, getting information about Morning Star from Ning Xuan or receiving possible help was far more important than the points.

Ning Yu had already spent all her points in the previous timeline, but after the reset, the points lost in the battle with Leviathan had returned.

However, she had also gained a new skill that transcended time—**"Fate-Seeing Demon Eye"**—which made her wonder if this system itself existed across time and space.

Ning Yu briefly instructed Ning Xuan on how to use the communication device. After receiving it, Ning Xuan didn’t ask where it came from but instead said:

"By the way, sister, to make it look like I failed to bring you back..."

"I know."

Ning Yu interrupted her, her right hand gripping the air as **Blood Kite** materialized in her hand, blood-red butterflies fluttering around.

After giving Shen Yiyue a meaningful look, she took Qian Qian back into the room.

"Remember to turn off your pain receptors."

Ning Yu stood up from the dining table and walked over to Ning Xuan.

"As you wish, dear sister."

Ning Xuan smiled faintly, her eyes flickering with symbols and patterns before they disappeared, indicating she had successfully turned off her pain sensors.

Ning Yu swung **Blood Kite**, leaving a crimson streak as she slashed a wound into Ning Xuan’s arm.

This time, she didn’t ask Ning Yu to pierce her heart.

"Sister, just a wound on the arm might not be fatal enough."

Ning Xuan pointed to her side, and Ning Yu understood, adding another wound.

Ning Xuan’s expression remained unchanged, confirming that she had indeed turned off her pain receptors, which put Ning Yu at ease.

No blood flowed from the wounds, and Ning Yu couldn’t help but recall the final scene from the previous timeline.

The fluorescent blue tears that had streamed from Ning Xuan’s eyes—that was likely the last symbol of her humanity.

Once she crossed that line, she would become fully mechanized.

But Ning Yu wouldn’t let that happen again. She was determined to ensure the happiness of those around her.

Whether it was Shen Yiyue, who had saved her countless times, or this sister who valued her life more than her own.

The feeling of having bonds wasn’t as bad as she had imagined—it even felt somewhat blissful.

‘How enviable, to be loved like this.’

She recalled the last words Moon Princess had spoken before she lost consciousness.

"I should go now, sister."

Ning Xuan stood by the window, energy twisting behind her as the air rippled, and a pair of beautiful blue mechanical wings appeared on her back.

Given the urgency of Ning Yu’s situation, she decided to use the energy-consuming method of flight.

"There are still some people who came with me to capture you in Room 1302 of Building B."

She reminded Ning Yu of something that needed to be dealt with.

"I’ll take care of them."

Ning Yu nodded, and **Blood Kite** slowly vanished into the air. At the same moment, Ning Xuan shot out of the Ark Base’s upper levels.

As soon as she flew out of the window, her figure became transparent, undetectable by the ordinary people below.

Ning Yu walked over to Shen Qianqian’s door and gently knocked, signaling that the scenes unsuitable for a child were over.

Fifteen minutes later.

Ning Yu climbed back in through the window and saw Shen Yiyue still sitting at the dining table.

"Xiao Yu, where did you go?"

Shen Yiyue looked up, her face filled with worry, thinking Ning Yu had disappeared again.

"I took care of some minor details."

Ning Yu silently took out a handkerchief to cover a small bloodstain on the left side of her skirt, ensuring Shen Qianqian wouldn’t see it.

"Xiao Xuan, has she already left?"

Shen Yiyue noticed that only Ning Yu had returned and asked about Ning Xuan’s whereabouts.

"She’s gone. We’ll wait for her to send back the information."

Ning Yu shook the **【Long-Distance One-Time Communication Device】** in her hand—it was part of a pair, and the other was already with Ning Xuan.

"I’m so envious of you, Xiao Yu, having such a thoughtful sister."

Shen Yiyue propped her chin on her hand, her tone teasing as she spoke into the air.

"Unlike some people who only know how to eat and aren’t the least bit considerate."

Shen Qianqian’s nose twitched. She had just opened her mouth to pop in a shrimp cracker but froze mid-motion, turning her head to look at Shen Yiyue.

"Sister, who are you hinting at?"

After a brief pause, Shen Qianqian tossed the shrimp cracker into her mouth and licked the powder off her fingers.

"I don’t just eat—I’m also great at sleeping."

She threw her comic book aside, flopped onto the sofa, and curled up like a lazy worm, completely giving up.

Ning Yu walked over to the dining table.

She noticed that whenever she wasn’t around, Shen Yiyue and Shen Qianqian would start bickering.

"What’s our next move?"

Ning Yu stood beside Shen Yiyue, looking at the notes she had been analyzing.

Shen Yiyue leaned toward Ning Yu, but Ning Yu stopped her.

"I just killed someone, so I’m a bit dirty. Let me change first."

She removed the handkerchief covering the bloodstain, went into the room to change into a new dress, and then returned to Shen Yiyue’s side.

"Do you remember the tunnel we found under the Ark in one of the resets?"

Ning Yu glanced at the numerous clues and circled one in the middle.

Shen Yiyue had written down various phenomena from different cycles on the paper, trying to find a breakthrough.

Back then, Shen Yiyue had discovered the tunnel beneath the Ark, intending to escape with Ning Yu and Shen Qianqian.

But when she explored it, she found a mechanical door with mysterious patterns at the end, and even Lin Hao couldn’t provide any clues.

Only Zhuang Wugou might have known, but unfortunately, he was dead and had left no information behind.

"I have a theory."

Ning Yu circled another clue on the paper, which read, **"The zombie horde emerged from underground."**

"There aren’t that many mutated zombies in City A, so they must have been led here by Morning Star."

"Combined with this clue, I suspect there’s a tunnel or device underground in City A that the zombies use to move."

On the paper, she connected the two clues.

"Xiao Yu, are you saying... we might be able to block the zombies’ path in advance?"

Shen Yiyue considered the possibility.
