Chapter 71 Mu Jiu was arrested
In a cardboard box next to the drawer, Mu Jiu also found several Polaroid cameras of the same model, as well as large packages of unopened photo paper.
It looked like they had been looted from somewhere, otherwise why would a group of grown men use pink cameras?
Mu Jiu packed the camera papers and photos of the victims into his bag and put them into the space.
She walked over to the man who was taking pictures earlier and collected all the humiliating photos of Sister Li that he had taken as evidence.
Mu Jiu rummaged around the house again and found a few bottles of Lao Baigan, a few packs of cigarettes, as well as some chocolates, biscuits and other snacks, which she also put into her bag.
After Mu Jiu finished his work, Sister Li also finished getting dressed.
At this moment, her attitude towards Mu Jiu was one of fear and gratitude, so much so that she didn't dare to look directly at this girl who killed seventeen strong men in one breath.
Mu Jiu didn't want to force her. After all, this was the first time they met in this life and Sister Li didn't know her yet, but she was 100% sure about Sister Li's character.
Then Mu Jiu followed the same path he came from and sent Sister Li back to her Chinese medicine clinic.
Sister Li had a hard time walking along the way, and she had to rely on Mu Jiu to support her and hold up half of her weight. The ten-minute journey took them nearly half an hour to reach their destination.
Halfway through the walk, Sister Li finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Why are you helping me?"
Mu Jiu thought for three seconds and made up a lie, "I have received favors from your family before, and I came here to repay you."
Sister Li had no doubt about this reason, but she never thought that this favor was given by her in her previous life.
Because her family has inherited traditional Chinese medicine skills from their ancestors, they have been doing good deeds and saving lives for generations.
It has been passed down to her for the seventh generation. This was all told to Mu Jiu by Sister Li in her previous life.
Her medical skills are the result of practical experience and knowledge accumulated from generations past, and have a solid foundation.
Before the end of the world, she was practicing Chinese medicine in her own private clinic. I heard that her uncles were also experts in this field.
It’s just because her Chinese medicine is sold so cheaply, a prescription only costs a few dollars, and a registration consultation only costs one dollar.
Unlike some hospitals, where a little medicine can cost hundreds of dollars, plus various physical examinations, it is possible that the total cost may exceed thousands.
It just so happens that the treatment effect of her family is so good that for most minor illnesses, just taking one prescription will cure the disease immediately and it has been widely praised.
Every day there are patients who come here to see the doctor. There are long queues and it is difficult to get an appointment.
Therefore, they encountered boycott from many competitors, who said that they were disrupting the market.
What's worse, some people even compared the Chinese medicine prescriptions her family prescribed with Western medicine and reported her to the higher-level regulatory authorities.
She said that her pharmacy did not have sufficient clinical trials to verify the toxicity of the drug and that it should not be allowed to circulate freely on the market.
They said it was irresponsible to the patients, and even had the door closed...
But there are not many traditional Chinese medicine families like hers who practice medicine conscientiously. These are the good people that the people really need.
"Today, I have to thank you no matter what, but those people..." Sister Li's face was full of worry.
"Don't worry, we have left evidence of their bullying. They were the first to attack us, so the most we can say is that we defended ourselves too much.
They have gone too far, and keeping them will only bring harm to more people."
Mu Jiu had survived a battle involving mountains of corpses and seas of fire, and she was not afraid of taking lives.
She just felt that good people like Sister Li shouldn't be bullied.
She knew very well that the end of the world was a barbaric era, and only by being stronger and more ruthless than others could one live longer and better.
At this moment, the crowd at the intersection where the beating took place has dispersed.
The few people who were originally lying dead after being beaten by Mu Jiu were also carried away.
As soon as I entered the Chinese medicine store, the uncle from the store next door came to greet me.
"Oh, you guys are finally back. Xiao Li was beaten badly and kept complaining of stomachache.
Lili, now that you're back, hurry up and show it to him, otherwise he might have been beaten to death.
After you were taken away, your brother wanted to save you, so he had an argument with those people, and then they actually started fighting.
Five people beat him up alone. I vomited blood when I saw it. Fortunately, this little girl came to the rescue, otherwise he would be in great danger today..."
As the uncle spoke, he took out the Oreo cookies that Mu Jiu had given him from his pocket, handed them over, and said apologetically:
"Girl, this is back to you.
You are our hero, the first person willing to fight those officials for us.
I accepted your things before because I misunderstood that you wanted to cause trouble for the Li siblings, and I deliberately made things difficult for you. I'm sorry!"
Mu Jiu took the biscuits back with a smile. This was the first time that food he had sent out was returned.
Sister Li choked up and said thank you to Mu Jiu, then looked at her brother...
Her voice suddenly became urgent, "Li Xuan... Li Xuan!"
Mu Jiu looked over and saw his brother lying on a simple bed beside him. He was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and he seemed to be in extreme pain.
“It hurts, it hurts, it hurts…Sister, it hurts…” His words were already incoherent, the only thing he could mutter was the word pain.
Sister Li hurriedly felt her brother's pulse, then looked at his pupils, mouth and tongue, and finally pulled open his clothes and examined his body.
Mu Jiu was not in a hurry to leave. She stood aside without any hesitation and helped close the door of the Chinese medicine clinic to prevent the cold wind from coming in.
Li Xuan had quite a few bruises on his body, most of which were concentrated on his back. There were also some on his buttocks and legs, but relatively few.
The uncle didn't leave either. It seemed that he was very familiar with Sister Li and the others. He asked Sister Li, who had just finished the examination, "How is Li Xuan?"
"The spleen is ruptured and is bleeding, so it hurts..." Sister Li's eyes turned red when she said this.
Sister Li struggled to stand up, and the large movement pulled the wound on her body, causing her to tremble in pain...
Mu Jiu supported her and said, "Let me get you whatever you want."
Sister Li, who has always been strong-willed, shook her head and said, "Please help me over there. There are too many things to take, and you don't know where they are."
Then Mu Jiu helped Sister Li take out a bunch of objects from the cabinet on the side, placed them on the table one by one, and started her treatment.
Mu Jiu stood aside and watched Sister Li treating her brother with medicine, acupuncture, massage, etc. The siblings shrank in pain with every step.
After working for a long time, Sister Li finally stopped what she was doing, breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the chair next to her.
Seeing this, the uncle next door hurried forward to check Li Xuan's injuries.
At this moment, Li Xuan was so tired that he fell into a deep sleep, but his face was no longer as pale as before, and the pain symptoms were obviously relieved.
Sister Li said softly, "Uncle Lei, thank you so much for today. Xuanxuan is out of danger now. You should go back quickly. I'm sorry for taking up a lot of your time."
"Okay, seeing that you are safe, I feel relieved. I will go back first!"
After seeing off the uncle next door, Sister Li closed the door, turned around and knelt down to Mu Jiu.
He caught Mu Jiu off guard and rushed forward to help her, "Sister Li, what are you doing? Get up quickly!"
"Thank you for saving us two siblings today!
If his injury was more serious, even if his ancestors were still alive, they would not be able to save him. Thank you! Thank you so much!
We owe you two lives. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to us and we will definitely help you with all our strength!
By the way, I don’t know your name yet, what is it?”
"Mu Jiu."
After coming out of Sister Li’s Chinese medicine clinic, Mu Jiu walked straight to the checkpoint of the second-level resettlement area.
Just now, on the grounds of supporting Sister Li's medical practice, she left a large bag of disposable acupuncture needles and some basic Chinese herbal pills for treating bruises and injuries, as well as sprains and tendons for Sister Li.
These were collected during the last raid on the Wild Military Factory Gang, so they were put to good use.
At that time, the number of items she collected was too large and the size of her bag was limited, so she only took out a small portion and gave it to Sister Li.
After all, with Sister Li's personality, if she was given food directly, she would feel that Mu Jiu looked down on her.
Mu Jiu walked forward while thinking, but before she reached the checkpoint, she was blocked by a group of armed police officers.
"Ms. Mu, you are suspected of being involved in a murder and robbery case. Please come with us!"
