Chapter 237 The Vicious Little White Flower in the Apocalypse (27)

When I got back, Lu Xia was still asleep.

Su Yu hid behind Xie Wei and breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise she really didn't know how to face her.

The system quickly pounced on her: "Meow!"

[Host, you are back! ]

Su Yu reached out to catch it and rubbed the system's furry head: [Well, I'm back. ]

In the evening, the doctor came again to change Lu Xia's dressing and check her injuries.

Seeing that the zombie virus had disappeared, the doctor smiled and said, "You are recovering very well, but be careful not to get wet during this period, and don't move too much to avoid the wound from cracking."

People with special abilities have better recovery abilities than ordinary people.

If it were a normal person, with a hole in the shoulder, it would be unknown whether the arm would grow back properly, and it might even become useless or leave the person disabled. But for a person with special abilities, as long as the vital parts are not injured, it is basically not considered an injury.

"Then why hasn't she woken up yet?" Ye Jinshu asked.

The doctor replied: "Maybe it was too painful and triggered the body's self-protection mechanism."

As the saying goes, it hurts so much that I faint.

The doctor thought about it and gave Lu Xia an injection of painkiller.

"If we were in the base, we could find a healing psychic to treat us, but unfortunately there are none here."

Healing ability users are even rarer than space ability users, and they can only be found in a few large bases.

When the doctor changed Lu Xia's bandages, everyone saw the wound on her shoulder. It was such a big bloody hole that it was painful just to look at.

Xu Yao grimaced, as if he could empathize with the situation.

Zhao Shuming couldn't bear it and turned his face away.

Su Yu couldn't tell whether she was feeling guilty or remorseful, so she hid behind Xie Wei and dared not look.

As for Xie Wei, when he saw the wound, his heart tightened and he felt a little bit relieved, relieved that it was not Su Yu who was injured.

At night, the two lay in bed.

The star lights in the tent were taken out and hung on the head of the hotel bed. The warm yellow star lights emitted a faint light, and the soft fluffy quilt bulged out two human figures. Su Yu lay in Xie Wei's arms, unable to fall asleep.

Su Yu called softly, "Senior."

"Um?"

Xie Wei didn't sleep either.

Su Yu hesitated for a while and decided to start with the topic that was least likely to go wrong: "What should I do with the things in my space?"

Su Yu was talking about the food inside.

Obviously, with so much food, the few remaining pickup trucks would not be able to load it all, and there was no fourth space-ability user in the convoy, so they could only load it in her space.

"They just let me go like this. Aren't they afraid that I will run away with the food?"

In the warm yellow light, Su Yu vaguely heard a chuckle.

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Xie Wei said.

"oh."

Recalling that laugh carefully, Su Yu's face was wooden. She reacted belatedly and realized, was that a mockery?

System: [Host, the male protagonist is insulting your personality. ]

Su Yu retorted: [No, he was just mocking my fighting ability.]

System: […Is there any difference? ]

Su Yu's face was serious: [There is a difference. It will make me feel better if I say this.]

system:【……】

Of course, the military would not be so rash. In fact, they mentioned that they wanted Su Yu to stay, saying that they had sufficient manpower and could provide better living conditions and protect Su Yu.

But both sides know it well, so it would be more appropriate to describe it as surveillance.

Xie Wei refused.

The military made a compromise and proposed to implant a positioning chip in Su Yu's arm, and repeatedly assured that it only had a positioning function and would be removed when they arrived at the base.

Xie Wei still refused.

The two sides were at a stalemate and the atmosphere was very tense.

Ultimately, the military was in the wrong. Before inviting Su Yu, they had considered this matter, but they did not think that Xie Wei and the others would not accept these two approaches.

There is another way, which is to forcibly detain Su Yu, but it is not worth offending a strong man and a space ability user for this.

The final result was that both sides took a step back, the positioning chip was implanted in Xie Wei's arm, and he had to ensure that it could not be removed or damaged without permission, and ensure Su Yu's safety until she arrived at the base safely.

Su Yu didn't know any of this.

After a long silence, Su Yu turned over and faced Xie Wei: "Senior, are you still angry now?"

Su Yu recalled the bloody hole on Lu Xia's shoulder and trembled slightly: "I really didn't think too much at the time, and it wasn't intentional. I was just too scared."

Until this moment, she was still making excuses for herself.

Su Yu hugged Xie Wei tightly: "Senior, will you forgive me?"

Xie Wei felt that it would be more appropriate to say this to Lu Xia.

He patted Su Yu on the back and avoided the question: "Go to sleep."

After an unknown amount of time, Su Yu's breathing gradually became even and long, but Xie Wei couldn't fall asleep.

It wasn't that she was as angry as Su Yu said, she was just a little panicked. In Su Yu's heart, she was panicked that she was no different from Lu Xia, who could be pushed out to block the zombies at any time.

The scenes in the dream played out in my mind over and over again.

Xie Wei's eyes grew darker and darker, and many scenes flashed through his mind. Sometimes it was the moment when he was a child and was pinned to the bed by that man, and sometimes it was his mother blaming him for knocking out his stepfather while ignoring the injuries on his body.

He once thought that he would live in the haze forever.

But someone pulled him out. She was bathed in light and forcefully broke into his world, dispelling the shadow around him.

Xie Wei couldn't accept being abandoned again.

He might go crazy.

Neither Su Yu nor the system, who were sleeping, noticed that the task progress bar almost jumped to the top for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and soon fell back and stopped at 75%.

…

Su Yu also had a dream.

In her dream, she fell into a lake. The water was clear and warm. She opened her eyes, looked around in confusion, and slowly sank.

A string of bubbles came out of her mouth, but surprisingly, she didn't feel suffocated and could breathe underwater like a fish.

The clothes on my body were floating in the water, hanging on my body as if they were about to fall off.

Suddenly, the water flow became rapid.

She couldn't control the direction and was washed into an embrace by the water. The embrace was not broad, but rather thin and a little chilly. She couldn't help but shiver.

Her long hair spread out like seaweed, soft and flowing.

In that embrace, Su Yu slowly turned her head, and a delicate and picturesque face came into view.

She whispered, "Sister Mermaid?"

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the mermaid’s face looked a little ugly, and there was a hint of speechlessness in her.

The mermaid's voice is also very nice.

"Don't move, I'll carry you up."

Su Yu stared at the mermaid's face blankly, and suddenly reached out to touch it: "Strange, why do I feel like you look familiar?"

The mermaid glanced at her, ignored her and continued swimming upwards.

Su Yu blinked: "Am I dreaming?"

The moment she left the water, Su Yu's hair and clothes dried miraculously, and her hair lay softly on her shoulders, not at all like she had just come out of the water.

Su Yu whispered to herself: "I am dreaming."
