Chapter 7 Ding~ The end of the world begins, the system is dormant
From that day on, their relationship gradually became closer. Although it was still limited to the daily good morning greetings, Ye Yiyi felt that Yang Luoliu's attitude towards her had softened.
Ye Yiyi was not in a hurry and did not take the next step. After all, there was no opportunity to take the next step. If she acted rashly and stepped on a landmine, not only would the good impression she had gained be wasted, but it would also annoy her.
The end of the world will be so dangerous that she will definitely not bring a burden with her. It will not be as easy to find someone then.
As time passed, by the last week, there was something vaguely wrong with the world.
Ye Yiyi felt her heart pounding when she watched the news analyzing some epidemic abroad.
"Host, don't be afraid. I will protect you."
After hearing what the system said, my heart was finally at ease. No need to guess anymore, the epidemic was definitely the zombie virus.
I blinked my eyes which were a little sore from staring at the screen so hard.
"System, could you please send some information about the zombie outbreak and the preparations to be made after the zombie outbreak to various platforms in this world? I know they will definitely not be able to find you with your abilities, and you don't need to reveal too much."
Looking at Ye Yiyi in front of him, the system finally agreed.
After a long struggle, the system finally looked at Ye Yiyi and said, "City F was the first to become uneasy. The airport here has received several groups of people returning from abroad, all of whom have been infected with the virus. Remember to avoid crowded places like hospitals, airports, and squares."
In response, Ye Yiyi just nodded and buried herself in the quilt to rest.
Lying on the bed with her eyes closed, Ye Yiyi thought that if this world were not dangerous, her biggest dream in life would be to just live like a lazy fish.
A week passed by so quickly, and the atmosphere on the streets became visibly tense during this period.
Major hospitals began to become overcrowded, and even small clinics were packed with people with fever and colds.
The country immediately blocked all flights across the country, but it was too late.
Yang Luoliu looked at Ye Yiyi, who was obviously in low spirits, and walked forward with great difficulty.
"The flu is pretty bad lately, so don't go for a morning run. Stay home."
Looking at Yang Luoliu, who was wearing a mask with only her bright eyes showing, Ye Yiyi smiled.
"I see. Then you should be careful too, sister. If you really can't do it, just work from home."
Seeing the anxious look in the little girl's eyes, Yang Luoliu smiled without saying a word and reached out to touch her head.
"Go back." Then he turned and left.
He knew that ordinary persuasion was useless, but he couldn't reveal that he knew the end of the world was about to happen.
Thinking that the apocalypse would break out tomorrow, Ye Yiyi gritted her teeth and had no choice but to come up with the plan.
Early the next morning.
Seeing that the girl next door didn't say good morning to him as usual, Yang Luoliu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that the girl might have been infected with the recent flu.
Thinking of this, his eyes were filled with anxiety that he himself was not aware of, and he hurried to Ye Yiyi's door and knocked.
But no matter how I knocked, there was no sound from inside. The whole room was eerily quiet.
Yang Luoliu was wondering whether to call a locksmith to open the door, but at this moment his cell phone rang.
Seeing that it was his driver Xiao Yu, he thought that he must have called because he saw that he had not arrived yet. Thinking that it would not take much time to answer the call, he picked up the phone first.
As soon as the call was connected, I heard the driver's anxious voice.
"Boss, I'm at the gate of your community. I think I bumped into a little girl."
Yang Luoliu paused while knocking on the door and was thinking about it when a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.
Perhaps because of the distance, the voice was a little unclear, but Yang Luoliu immediately recognized it as Ye Yiyi's voice.
"It's okay, I just got a little skin broken, it's okay."
Yang Luoliu heard something fragmentary, turned on her toes, and hurried towards the driver.
"Is she seriously injured?"
The person on the other end seemed to be emphasizing that it wasn't serious, but Xiao Yu looked at Ye Yiyi's ankle, which looked a bit miserable, and didn't say that it wasn't serious.
"She's at the gate of the complex. I think her condition is pretty serious. She probably can't walk anymore. I'm very sorry, boss. How about you call your assistant to pick you up? I'll take the girl to the hospital."
After all, this little girl looks very pitiful, and she really hit the car herself. Even if she has to have her salary deducted, she still has to take care of the consequences.
When he heard that they had to go to the hospital, Yang Luoliu ran even faster.
"You don't have to wait there, I'll be there soon."
After saying that, she hung up the phone and her long and beautiful legs quickened her pace.
The driver looked at the hung up phone and for a moment he didn't know whether the boss's "No need." meant that he didn't need to care about the girl or that no one else should answer the phone.
But thinking of his boss's last words, he just stood there without moving.
On the other side, Ye Yiyi really didn't expect it to be so painful. This time her tears were not fake, they fell down like they were free.
The system floating in the air didn't dare to speak. It looked up at the sky and down at the earth, but didn't dare to look at Ye Yiyi.
A quarter of an hour ago.
Ye Yiyi had a plan. There was only one way to prevent Yang Luoliu from going to the company, and that was to commit fraud.
So she aimed at the car that came to pick up Yang Luoliu, positioned herself in a position where the driver couldn't see her, and then suddenly jumped out when the car arrived.
By the time the driver reacted, it was too late to brake and he knocked Ye Yiyi to the ground.
But the protective shield provided by the system was so effective that Ye Yiyi was not hurt at all.
But seeing the driver about to get out of the car, Ye Yiyi made a quick decision and asked the system to hit her ankle.
The system was just about to say that it had medicine that could block pain and asked her if she wanted to take it, but seeing that she kept urging it, it swallowed it silently.
He picked up the baseball bat in his space and smashed it towards Ye Yiyi's ankle. Seeing Ye Yiyi burst into tears, the system knew that he had not controlled the strength well.
In addition, he did not tell others that he had medicine in time, so he felt guilty and pretended to be dead in mid-air.
When Yang Luoliu arrived, he saw Ye Yiyi crying with tears in her eyes, looking so pitiful.
When I lowered my eyes, I saw Ye Yiyi's wound that was bleeding.
His heart tightened and he hurried forward past Xiao Yu.
"Little guy, does it hurt?"
Ye Yiyi originally wanted to act pitiful, but Yang Luoliu's words "little guy" made her stand there in a daze.
Yang Luoliu didn't think there was anything wrong. He squatted down to check Ye Yiyi's ankle and found that although the wound looked a little hideous, fortunately, no bones were injured.
But it seems that it will be impossible to stand up for a while.
Thinking of this, Yang Luoliu's expression was indeed not good-looking, but looking at Ye Yiyi's pitiful appearance, he felt a sense of heartache that he didn't even realize.
"Why are you so careless? Can you still walk?"
Ye Yiyi finally came back to her senses and looked at Yang Luoliu embarrassedly.
"I wanted to go to the supermarket to buy some seasonings, but I was so anxious that I didn't look carefully at the car. I'm sorry, sister. Did I delay you? It's okay. I'll take a break and I'll be able to leave soon."
Seeing that Ye Yiyi was obviously in so much pain that she was crying but was still thinking about others, Yang Luoliu felt a little disappointed. He sighed and looked at Xiao Yu beside him.
"Wait for me in the car."
Seeing this, Xiao Yu naturally didn't say anything. He just nodded and got in the car.
Then he squatted down and looked at Ye Yiyi. "Can you still walk? Forget it."
Before Ye Yiyi could react, he picked her up like a princess.
Ye Yiyi was stunned. She had thought that she might be carried back on her back, supported by someone, or at the very least, two people would carry her back together. She had never thought that she could carry herself back in a princess hug.
It seemed that Ye Yiyi's shock was too obvious, so Yang Luoliu said with a hint of amusement, "Why, do you think I can't hold you?"
Considering that this person could fight back despite being targeted by seven or eight men, he shouldn't be too weak.
Thinking of this, Ye Yiyi's face began to turn slightly red. She really didn't expect that the first person to carry her in a princess hug would be a girl.
"It's a bit unexpected." No matter how wild the thoughts in his mind were, he said them subconsciously.
After all, her shock was too obvious, and there was no way she could lie.
Yang Luoliu found it a little funny to see Ye Yiyi's honest words.
"I practiced it before I was 20, and after I was 20." Yang Luoliu didn't say anything else, and the corners of his mouth, which were originally slightly raised, flattened a little.
But Ye Yiyi naturally knew it after reading her resume of the first half of her life, and naturally would not pick on other people's sore spots by asking.
"Let me take you home. Although the wound looks scary, it should be fine after disinfection and bandaging. The hospital has been overwhelmed with flu cases recently, so let's not join in the fun, okay?"
Yang Luoliu's last sentence was more or less meant to coax a child.
But Ye Yiyi didn't notice it, her attention was all on the success of the plan.
Going home naturally suited Ye Yiyi's wishes. Even if Yang Luoliu really wanted to go to the hospital, Ye Yiyi would persuade him to go back.
Are you kidding? A zombie outbreak is about to happen, and the first place to fall will be the hospital. She won't be stupid enough to go forward.
So after Yang Luoliu said these words, Ye Yiyi hugged Yang Luoliu's neck tightly to relieve her pressure as much as possible, and said "hmm" softly.
The two of them didn't say much along the way. Fortunately, the entrance of the community was not too far from Ye Yiyi's house, but even so, Yang Luoliu gradually felt a little tired.
Ye Yiyi is not heavy, but as a girl, Yang Luoliu has limited physical strength.
Fortunately, they arrived at the villa when Yang Luoliu was about to give up.
After signaling Ye Yiyi to open the door with the password, he put the person on the sofa.
He glanced at Ye Yiyi's ankle and asked, "Is there a medicine box at home?"
"Yes, in my master bedroom."
Seeing that Yang Luoliu was going to help her apply medicine, Ye Yiyi was naturally happy that she didn't mention going to the company, so that she wouldn't have to make up a reason to keep her.
Yang Luoliu nodded at this, stood up and closed the door before going upstairs to get the medicine box.
Looking at Yang Luoliu's actions, Ye Yiyi couldn't help but sigh that it was a good habit, otherwise she would have to drag her injured body to the closure.
The moment Yang Luoliu went up, the eyes of the system floating in the air suddenly emitted a faint blue light.
An emotionless mechanical sound suddenly rang in Ye Yiyi's ears.
"Ding~ The apocalypse has begun. The system is in hibernation and upgrading. I look forward to meeting the host in three hours."
Ye Yiyi nearly exploded when she heard this. This system needs to go into hibernation after the upgrade? What if it suddenly goes into hibernation when she is in danger in the future? She will definitely die! ! ! !
Thinking of this, Ye Yiyi's face turned like a colorful palette.
However, after hearing the footsteps coming down the stairs, Ye Yiyi became that pitiful look again.
After taking the medicine box, he sat next to Ye Yiyi and carefully took her foot and placed it on his lap.
Afraid that Ye Yiyi would feel pain, he applied the medicine carefully. Ye Yiyi, who had never been treated so carefully before, felt a little uncomfortable.
But looking at Yang Luoliu's expression, Ye Yiyi could only mutter in her heart to distract herself, but her ears turned red.
But before he could treat Ye Yiyi's wound, Yang Luoliu's phone rang. Seeing that it was Xiao Yu calling, Yang Luoliu looked at Ye Yiyi, answered the call and turned on the speakerphone.
Before Yang Luoliu could say anything, Xiao Yu's panicked voice came from the other end.
"Boss, boss, you'd better not go to the company today. I, I'm going back first. Boss, if you go home, don't come out again."
After saying that, he hung up the phone before Yang Luoliu could speak, leaving Yang Luoliu confused.
But Ye Yiyi knew what was going on. She secretly glanced at Yang Luoliu's expression and pretended to speak carefully.
"Sister, did I delay you?"
Yang Luoliu, who was still a little dazed, came back to his senses and chuckled.
"No, I'll bandage you." Although he said that, his hands moved obviously faster.
Just then, Yang Luoliu's cell phone rang again. Seeing that it was a call from his assistant, Yang Luoliu glanced at Ye Yiyi and answered the phone but did not turn on the speakerphone.
"Hey, is there something wrong at the company?"
"Hello?"
"Hello? Are?"
The person on the other end didn't respond even after a few words. This was not Arei's character, unless something happened to her. Moreover, sounds like the growls of wild beasts came from the other end of the phone one after another, and Yang Luoliu frowned immediately.
Ye Yiyi could clearly see the changes in Yang Luoliu and asked cautiously, "Sister? What's wrong?"
Hearing the voice, Yang Luoliu's brows relaxed slightly.
"Nothing, something happened at the company. I'll make a phone call and come back later."
Ye Yiyi didn't say anything about this, but nodded obediently.
Putting Ye Yiyi's feet in place, he stood up and glanced at Ye Yiyi. He smiled and said, "Can we go upstairs and fight?"
Ye Yiyi thought to herself, "This shows that he doesn't trust me." But she nodded like someone who knew nothing.
Watching Yang Luoliu's back disappear from her sight, Ye Yiyi rubbed her chin.
“I thought there was already a lot of trust.”
Then I thought that if I were in his shoes, I wouldn’t be particularly trusting of a neighbor I had only known for a month.
It's very good that she can do this.
He sighed and thought, never mind. It should be fine to stay with her in the future. By then, when she doesn't turn evil, we won't have much to do with each other. With this thought, his eyes fell on the system that had closed its eyes.
I am worried about my future.
On the other side, Yang Luoliu's brows never relaxed. After hanging up the phone, she called A Rui again, but no one answered this time. Anxiously, she called another male assistant, but the call was also unanswered.
Finally, she called the chief assistant, and luckily the call went through. However, her chief assistant seemed to have seen something terrible, and her voice was shaking uncontrollably.
"Boss, boss, you, you are not in the company, right?"
Yang Luoliu was a little puzzled by her behavior. She, the chief assistant, had once fought against a rival company over a business matter and had been hit on the head and was bleeding profusely. However, she was able to calmly sign the contract and then go to the hospital for treatment. What had happened to her that made her voice tremble like this?
"No, I was delayed at home because of something. Did something happen to you? Neither A Rui nor Li Xia answered the phone. You." Yang Luoliu said anxiously.
Hearing the other person's breathing seemed to pause, he interrupted Yang Luoliu's call. "Just stay home. Boss, don't go to the company. The world has changed."
She has never been someone who would interrupt me when I am talking. Even if what I say is sometimes outlandish, she will listen carefully before giving me advice. She would never do that like now.
Before Yang Luoliu could come out of this doubt, a very bloody scene flashed into his eyes.
This residential complex was built on the mountainside, and the altitude was quite high. In addition, Yang Luoliu was on the second floor, and he watched helplessly as a man covered in blood threw the security guard at the gate of the residential complex onto him and tore something apart from him.
The security guards in the community are all young and strong retired soldiers. From the figure and clothes of the person who knocked him down, one can vaguely tell that it is a woman, but no matter how he struggles, he cannot push the person in front of him away.
But after a moment, the security guard stopped struggling.
Yang Luoliu subconsciously wanted to hang up the phone and call the police when she saw the woman enter her community in a strange posture. Not long after, the security guard who had just been lying on the ground with no strength left to move crawled up with his bloody body in a strange way, and followed the strange woman into her community.
No matter how carefree Yang Luoliu was, he knew something was wrong.
