Li Xin'er stood by the window, looking at the street below the hotel building.
The fog had long since dissipated, and the sky was about to brighten, a hazy white. There were few vehicles on this street last night, and I didn't see the accident site.
You can faintly hear strange screams and cries, and you can see several twisted black figures wandering aimlessly in the street.
Li Yiyuan put on his shoes and walked over, standing next to her. Only then did he have time to see the situation outside clearly.
He found it hard to believe.
“Xinxin”.
The immediate worries, the tension of the unknown, the fears that come to mind...
Li Xin'er spoke casually, showing no sign of panic.
"Yes, as you can see, it's the end of the world~"
Li Yiyuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with barely suppressed surprise. He turned his head and glanced at her.
Her long, black hair cascaded down to her waist, her skin was fair and translucent, and her eyelashes were exceptionally curled and long when viewed from the side. Her profile was bathed in a soft halo of light as the white light from outside the window gradually brightened.
It's her, but it doesn't seem like her anymore.
This feeling had lingered in his heart ever since he saw her again in Country Y, but he had never wanted to think about it too much.
With just one glance, Li Yiyuan immediately turned away as if to escape, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, as if he were trying his best to restrain something, and he opened his mouth with difficulty.
"you···"
In the end, she pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and didn't continue speaking.
Li Xin'er sensed the change in his aura, but without turning around, she stared out the window with her arms crossed and asked in a cool voice:
"What about me?"
If he asks, she will answer to the best of her knowledge.
After all, he was a special person to the original owner, a family member and a close friend, someone who supported each other and whom she trusted completely.
At this moment, Li Yiyuan suddenly didn't want to ask anymore; the question was too silly.
He smiled, reverting to his usual carefree demeanor.
"Don't be afraid, Dad will protect you."
He was being incredibly cheeky, winking and making faces at her, his sweat-drenched hair making him look like he'd just stepped out of a tanker truck, all greasy.
Li Xin'er rolled her eyes beautifully.
"childish."
Since she's not going to ask, she can pretend she doesn't know anything.
She lifted her foot and walked towards the bathroom, saying as she did so:
"If the apocalypse has come true, then the zombies mentioned in the countdown must also be real. There are quite a few people staying in this hotel; there might be trouble later."
Before dawn, tidy up the water tank, just in case it's not drinkable, but it should be fine for showering.
Li Yiyuan quickly followed suit and said:
"By the way, something probably happened in the room next to yours. I heard some strange noises when I came over."
Just thinking about the scratching sound made Li Yiyuan shudder, and goosebumps rose on his arms.
Li Xin'er checked the tap and found there was still water; the water was clean. She then took out a clean bathrobe from the hotel and a disposable towel she had brought, and handed them to him.
"I used the one I brought last night, so this bathrobe is clean."
Li Yiyuan leaned against the bathroom door, watching her busy movements, a gentle smile in his eyes, but still couldn't resist saying something.
“I don’t mind if Xinxin has used it.”
Li Xin'er automatically ignored his shameless behavior.
"I don't have any clothes for you here, so just wear this for now. We can go to your room together later to change."
Li Yiyuan nodded obediently.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Xinxin is so good to him, she arranges everything for him~
The sound of the shower in the bathroom started, and the noise from the next room grew even louder.
Li Xin'er used her soul power to see that a middle-aged man next door had turned into a zombie. Hearing the noise from this side, he was very agitated, scratching at the walls and doors inside the room.
Unfortunately, the doors and windows were closed, so we couldn't get out.
"Holy crap!"
Li Yiyuan's exclamation came from the bathroom.
Li Xin'er frowned, stood up, and stared at the closed bathroom door, asking:
"One yuan, so what?"
"I...I'm fine, I'm fine!"
Li Yiyuan's voice sounded flustered as he replied, repeatedly emphasizing his concerns.
"Xinxin, I'm fine, I'll be out in a minute. Don't come in, or you'll be held responsible if you see everything!"
Li Xin'er immediately withdrew her restless soul power. She had originally been preparing to see what was going on, but this reminder instantly put her mind to it.
Inside the bathroom, Yi Yuan stared blankly at his right palm, blinking. If he wasn't mistaken, his palm was sparking.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and his gaze drifted down to his lower body...
Honestly, he didn't do anything wrong; his hands were just rubbing together and getting sparks...
Li Yiyuan's thoughts wandered, and his face instantly turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
He wiped the water droplets from his face. It must be a hallucination. Otherwise, he would try burning it again.
He stretched out his right hand, palm up, to avoid the water from the showerhead.
A thought later, a flame rose in his palm. This time, he didn't shout or yell, but remained remarkably calm.
The flames continued to burn, like a campfire built in the palm of his hand. Slowly, the fire weakened, and Li Yiyuan felt a little dizzy.
receive!
With a thought, all the flames on his hand vanished.
He withdrew his palm, turning it over and over to check, making sure it hadn't turned into 'braised pig's trotters', and his eyes shone even brighter.
Superpowers?!
I've read a lot of post-apocalyptic novels, and the first thing that comes to mind is superpowers.
Li Yiyuan was excited and couldn't wait to share the news with Li Xin'er. After quickly showering, he wrapped himself in a bathrobe and rushed out.
"Xinxin!"
The excited and joyful voices sounded like a child who had received a new toy or got a perfect score on a test and came to share and ask for praise.
