The discomfort in her brain persisted, forcing Su Li to change her carefully planned arrangements.
Qi Zhi was outside collecting oil, with the cat following behind on guard, while Su Li found a car, climbed inside, and treated her wounds first.
The wound on my shoulder wasn't very serious, but it still looked quite frightening!
Four deep claw marks on the delicate skin tore through the flesh. Without the protection of the outer skin, the flesh inside started to ache with every movement!
After treating her wound, Su Li stayed in the car for more than ten minutes with her eyes closed before going out.
It wasn't that she wanted to be lazy; it was just that the discomfort in her head was getting worse, and it was starting to ache slightly!
She raised her hand to tentatively touch her forehead, and then discovered that she had a fever!
It's probably caused by a wound infection.
Or... did he awaken a superpower?
Thinking of this possibility, a glimmer of hope rose in Su Li's heart, but in the end she calmed herself down first.
They shouldn't celebrate prematurely about things that are uncertain, and their first priority should be to get through the night safely.
Moreover, what if it's another possibility?
Thinking of the wound on her shoulder, Su Li's mood became more serious!
After taking fever reducers and anti-inflammatory drugs and resting for a while, Su Li felt better and got out of the car to get gasoline with Qi Zhi.
Su Li collected all the gasoline, bucket by bucket and basin by basin, into her spatial storage. After all the gasoline was stored, Su Li also stored a black SUV, a van, and a pickup truck parked outside the gas station into her spatial storage.
There were actually a few other cars parked nearby that belonged to gas station staff, but Su Li was too exhausted to do anything about it!
She already had a slight fever, and removing the gasoline from outside completely depleted her energy. The fact that she could still walk on her own was her last act of perseverance!
After collecting the oil, Su Li quickly checked the condition of the two rooms at the gas station.
Black Cat had already confirmed that both rooms were safe, while Su Li had only looked at the layout of the rooms.
The gas station's management office and small supermarket are two rooms in the same building, connected by a door. However, the door's lock is faulty; it can be closed but not locked.
The management room is quite small, not because the room is inherently small, but because the entire room is almost completely filled by a mutated pothos plant!
Only in the innermost part, there is a space less than two meters wide, which is where the mutated pothos failed to grow.
Fortunately, the mutated plants completely blocked all the doors and windows in front of the room, so not only zombies, but even black cats could no longer get through!
Su Li looked at the narrow strip of floor in the room, barely wide enough for a single bed, and suddenly said to the two people behind her, "I'll sleep here."
Qi Zhi was stunned, and Xuan Qing didn't react either, when Su Li suddenly turned around and looked at them: "You two, you'll be sleeping in the supermarket tonight."
"Meow?"
Upon hearing Su Li's last word, Xuan Qing subconsciously responded with a cat-like meow that he couldn't understand.
He doesn't want to be with this smelly boy!
At this moment, Qi Zhi also noticed something was wrong: why wasn't Sister Su Li with Mimi? It was obvious that Mimi only trusted her!
But he still looked down tentatively at the cat: "Mimi, let's do this together tonight..."
Before she could finish speaking, the black cat, as if it hadn't heard Su Li's words at all, slowly walked into the room Su Li had chosen!
But... before he could take two steps, Su Li grabbed him by the back of the neck and handed him to his face!
Su Li's voice rang out softly from behind Xuan Qing's dark little head: "You'll sleep with him tonight!"
Xuanqing: Meow meow meow meow meow meow??
Su Li ignored the black cat's struggles.
She watched as Qi Zhi blankly stretched out a hand and simply hung the cat on his arm.
Then she said to Qi Zhi with a serious expression, "Don't come into my room tonight. I have a fever and I feel unwell. I don't know yet whether the fever is due to a wound infection or... a zombie virus infection. After all, we can't guarantee that the zombie's fingernails weren't stained with the blood of other zombies."
"So, don't come over for at least three hours. If everything is normal for me after three hours, that's fine. But if... take the supplies from the supermarket and leave. Those things should last you a long time!"
At this point, Su Li's gaze swept around the supermarket before finally landing on the door that Qi Zhi had closed.
She took out the bed sheet she had used to tie up the door at the beauty salon yesterday, along with a large roll of transparent tape, and handed it to Qi Zhi: "Go tie up the door, and find some cardboard to cover up the glass in the doors and windows so the zombies don't find out there are people inside! Also, find something to cover up this door too."
As Su Li spoke, she pointed to the door in front of her. The lock on the door must have been broken before the apocalypse, and for some reason it was stuck and couldn't be turned.
She won't open the door until she's sure it's safe, but if she does mutate, it would be safer for Qi Zhi to try and block the door shut.
It's not that she's a saint; she's clearly insecure herself, yet she still cares about the lives of others.
But after all, she would have come to this dangerous place even without Qi Zhi. She was only injured because she was careless and got caught. Qi Zhi hadn't wronged her in any way, so she didn't want to implicate innocent people because of herself!
At this moment, Qi Zhi listened blankly as Su Li finished speaking. On his other arm, the black cat that Su Li had forcibly shoved into his hand was hanging around his waist.
