Lin Qingqing stored the potatoes in her space, intending to use them as a backup. She simply took a small bottle of oil and a half-opened bag of salt from the kitchen. Although the water was murky, she found an empty bucket and filled it with it.
With these in reserve, she didn't need to rush to prepare food. As for the favor she owed Qiao Ruoran, she would repay it when she had the chance.
After finishing all this, Lin Qingqing planned to go to Big Ear first to pay back the debt and ask him, the local tyrant, to check the situation in the special isolation area.
On the street, the bloodstains on the ground had not yet been cleaned up, and there was a sense of desolation and silence in the cold wind.
Occasionally there are pedestrians, but they are also walking hurriedly with expressionless faces.
Arriving at the black market, the lights were dimmed again. There were fewer people inside. Perhaps they were dead, or perhaps they were injured and still in quarantine.
Lin Qingqing turned around and didn't see Big Ears and Old Tan.
After hesitating for a moment, he went straight to the small, shabby house where he lived in his previous life.
She knocked on the door of Old Tan's house.
"Girl, are you looking for our Tan Zi?"
It was Tan's mother who opened the door. Seeing that the other person was a girl, she couldn't help but smile. She was worried about her son's unwillingness to get married and have children. She didn't dare to ask, so she just hinted at it.
However, the girl in front of me seems a little small?
Lin Qingqing calmly looked at Mrs. Tan. Seeing that her mental state seemed normal, she asked softly, "Grandma, do you know where Uncle Tan went today?"
"Oh, I really didn't know about this! He came back very late last night and left early this morning." After answering, Tan's mother invited enthusiastically: "Come on, young lady, come in and sit down first."
"Grandma, no thanks." Lin Qingqing didn't dare to enter the Tan family's house. Although she liked the food cooked by Tan's mother, she was a chatterbox. She didn't have time to play with her mother today.
She took out the medicine prepared for Tan's mother from the space and gave it to Tan's mother, "Grandma, this is the medicine that Uncle Tan asked me to buy before. Take it first."
As they were talking, the door next door suddenly opened, and the next moment, Lin Qingqing's hand was grabbed by someone.
"Come with me."
Lin Qingqing looked back and saw that the person who spoke was Big Ears.
Big Ears' face was as pale as a vampire, with unconcealable anxiety between his brows. He grabbed Lin Qingqing's arm like it was a life-saving straw.
Lin Qingqing was pulled by him forcefully into the small alley. This was the old city in the south of the city. The houses were still small Western-style buildings from the 1980s and 1990s. Most of the mosaic tiles on the exterior walls had fallen off, and it looked very dilapidated.
"What happened?" Lin Qingqing asked.
If she hadn't been familiar with Big Ears in her previous life, she would have thought he was planning something bad to her.
"Old Tan is injured. Liu Qiang once came to my place to look for you. He said you can treat external injuries." As Big Ears spoke, he opened a metal gate and walked into the yard.
Old Tan was injured? This never happened in my previous life!
Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment, but did not deny her medical skills. "I know a little."
She followed Big Ear into the yard and asked, "Have you seen Liu Qiang? When was it?"
"About five days! He couldn't find you anywhere, so he came to me..." Before entering the house, Big Ears stopped and turned to ask, "What medical equipment do you need?"
"Where is Old Tan?" Lin Qingqing asked back.
Medical equipment? She didn’t recognize the high-end ones, but she had her own scalpel.
"In the basement. This idiot went to the city gate to volunteer yesterday, and he came knocking on the door early this morning to leave his last words!"
Big Ears was very upset. His only relative was his thirteen-year-old brother, and the only person he trusted was Old Tan.
He was afraid of losing Lao Tan. Without Lao Tan's protection, no matter how smart he was, it would be difficult for him to survive in this cannibalistic world.
He had just gone to the Tan family, intending to pick up Tan's mother and go back to the countryside together.
If we die, we die together.
I didn't expect to meet Lin Qingqing.
The two came to the basement, which was originally a secret base for Big Ears to modify firearms.
Lin Qingqing came down the stairs and saw a row of workbenches. The walls were covered with various modified air rifles, submachine guns, and pistols...
"Brother, please accept my knees!" Lin Qingqing was shocked. Her admiration for Big Ears was like a torrent of water...
What a courage!
If this matter is discovered before the end of the world, the prison sentence will be at least ten years!
Even now, if the base knew about this, these things would have to be handed over.
Of course, Big Ears is a rare talent and he will definitely not be sentenced because the prison cannot afford to feed idle people.
He will be treated as the base's donkey, and he will keep making guns as long as he lives.
Big Ears was in no mood to joke around. He even disdained the firearms he cherished so dearly. "Whatever you like, just take it yourself later."
As he spoke, he walked quickly into a glass house.
Through the glass, Lin Qingqing saw Old Tan huddled in the corner as if he had been hit by frost.
Hearing the noise, Old Tan raised his eyes with difficulty and vaguely saw two figures. He guessed it was Big Ears and made a low, hoarse sound to stop them, "Xiao Yu... don't come over here."
"Where's the wound?" Lin Qingqing saw that Old Tan's face was red, as if he had a severe burn. She asked Big Ear while putting on medical gloves.
"It's on his butt, and he won't let me see it." Big Ear said with a red face. He also thought about applying medicine to Old Tan, but Old Tan would rather die than obey!
"No!" Old Tan, delirious with fever, shook his head vigorously. His injuries were indescribable and he absolutely could not show them to anyone.
"Old Tan, it's Doctor Lin who's here. He's the one who has medicine and can treat illnesses." Big Ears persuaded gently.
"No!" Old Tan waved his hands wildly to prevent them from getting close.
Old Tan is the provincial martial arts champion. Seeing him moving around like that, Lin Qingqing and Big Ears didn't dare to go forward.
Big Ears was still trying to persuade him earnestly.
Lin Qingqing raised her hand and took out a tube, gestured for a moment, and replaced it with a thicker one.
Big Ears heard the noise and turned his head in shock, "What are you doing?"
"Knock him out!" Lin Qingqing's eyes widened. "Get out of the way!"
"No!" Big Ear stood in front of Old Tan without a second thought. At this moment, he didn't even think about where she got the stick.
While Old Tan's attention was on Big Ear, Lin Qingqing winked at him, then placed the syringe on the head of the thick tube and carried it over.
When Big Ear saw the syringe, he hesitated for a moment, reached out to grab it, and then stabbed it into Old Tan's arm!
"Your sneak attack... is so shameless." The feeling of numbness gradually came over Lao Tan, his eyelids twitched, and after a few minutes, he was knocked unconscious by the anesthetic!
"Go, take off his pants." Lin Qingqing took out the medicine box. Big Ears was stunned when he saw her conjure something out of thin air.
