Chapter 116: Take a rest
"Thank you for your help." Xia Runlin did not refuse.
So, Xu Xinxin picked out a set of loose pajamas for him, took him to her room, and wrapped him in a quilt.
"You lie down here and rest for a while. Do you want me to help you contact Sun Kunpeng and others to pick you up?"
After Xu Xinxin finished speaking, she gently closed the door and went to the kitchen to cook porridge.
With a "sizzle" sound.
A nearby radio suddenly rang.
[Dear Jiangcheng citizens, we would like to interrupt you with an urgent piece of news.]
When she heard that it was urgent news, Xu Xinxin stopped washing rice and pricked up her ears to listen to the broadcast outside.
[The defense army discovered a mutant beast over level 50 in the wilderness. The mutant beast is suspected to be able to speak human language. It has been killed by an S-level supernatural being named Xia. However, it is not ruled out that there are other level 50 mutant beasts in the wilderness. Please do not go to the wilderness in the near future. ]
[After evaluation, the mutant beast is at the highest danger level. There is a high probability that an S-level mutant will not be able to escape the pursuit of the mutant beast. Please, residents, do not misjudge your own strength and go to the wilderness...]
The broadcast was repeated three times in a row. Xu Xinxin knew that the supernatural person named Xia mentioned in the broadcast must be Xia Runlin, so she lowered her head and continued to wash rice and cook porridge.
But now in Jiangcheng, the residents who heard the broadcast were all in an uproar.
"Level 50 mutant beast? It's only been three years since the catastrophe, and such a high-level mutant beast has appeared?"
"Even S-level psychics have a hard time escaping capture, so if we run into it, we'll be dead straight away."
"Last time, a large mutant bird-beast ran to the Ring River. Do you think a level 50 mutant beast would not cross the Ring River?"
If a mutant beast that even S-level psychics have difficulty dealing with comes to Jiangcheng, can't it be killed at will?
Everyone's mood suddenly became heavy.
"Pah, pah, pah, what bad luck are you talking about? Didn't the broadcast just say that the mutant beast has been killed?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it seems to be a supernatural being named Xia."
"I know, he must be Xia Runlin! The last name is Xia, and he is an S-level psychic, so it must be him."
In fact, there is another one, that is General Xia, Xia Runlin’s sister. However, if it was General Xia who killed the mutant beast, the broadcast would directly say that it was General Xia who killed it, instead of saying something like "a mutant named Xia."
While everyone was talking about it, the defense forces had already seen through the surveillance near the river that Xia Runlin had been brought back by Xu Xinxin.
Seeing the defense troops monitoring them, looking at their figures, they breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but complain: "How come Xu Xinxin can encounter anything?"
I heard that the one who killed the mutant beast was Xia Runlin, General Xia’s younger brother.
The defense forces that had just rushed to hunt down the mutant beast only found the mutant beast's corpse, but based on the traces of fighting at the scene, they speculated that Xia Runlin must be in great danger.
Everyone was looking for Xia Runlin, but unexpectedly, they saw him on the surveillance camera, and he was taken away by Xu Xinxin.
This little girl Xu Xinxin is still a bit lucky.
Everyone murmured for a while, and then sent a message to the defense forces who were still searching for Xia Runlin in the wilderness: "Xia Runlin has been found."
The defense forces still at the scene all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news.
Because based on the residual energy fluctuations of the mutant beast that they had just measured, and then based on a series of data evaluations such as its size and toxicity, they finally concluded that even if two or even three S-level psychics worked together to strangle it, they might not be able to kill the mutant beast on the spot.
Therefore, everyone assumed that Xia Runlin died immediately after killing the mutant beast. Perhaps his body was turned into water by the toxins, or was eaten by other mutant beasts.
Unexpectedly, after a careful search, everyone discovered that Xia Runlin still had the energy to go to a nearby abandoned classroom after killing the mutant beast.
But when they found the abandoned classroom, they only discovered a few small spiders and a pool of toxic blood.
Xu Xinxin didn't know that someone was still looking for Xia Runlin in the wilderness. She cooked porridge in the kitchen, put some shredded meat and vegetables in it, and added some salt and MSG.
A bowl of fresh and steaming vegetable and lean meat porridge is ready.
Xu Xinxin ran to the room carrying a large bowl of hot vegetable porridge and found Xia Runlin sitting at the head of the bed, making a phone call using his card.
The bowl was so hot that she couldn't hold it anymore. She quickly put it on the table next to her and pinched her ears with her fingers.
"...I'm fine now, you don't need to come over, I have something else to do so I'll hang up now."
Xia Runlin glanced at Xu Xinxin, said a few words briefly, hung up the phone, and walked over wearing Xu Xinxin's slippers.
Because there is insulation material outside the house, even though the temperature outside is close to 30 degrees, it is still cool inside.
Xu Xinxin saw Xia Runlin wearing her summer pajamas and was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she quickly said, "Come over and sit down to eat your porridge. I'll get you a coat."
As she spoke, she took out a black sports jacket and put it directly on Xia Runlin.
"Thanks......"
"What are you thanking me for? Eat something."
Without waiting for him to finish saying thank you, Xu Xinxin pushed him down on the stool and watched him drink the porridge in small sips.
The window next to the table was open, and outside the window was full of roses. There was even a flower sticking directly in, which made the table look very beautiful.
Xia Runlin was sitting at the table, drinking porridge in small sips, and he looked pretty good too.
It was impolite to stare at someone while they were eating, so Xu Xinxin quickly realized it and said, "You haven't recovered yet, so it's best to eat something light. Drink this bowl of porridge first. If it's not enough, I have more in the kitchen."
"No need," Xia Runlin hurriedly stopped her and said, "I need to go home first, you don't need to bother me."
"Oh, you are going home."
Xu Xinxin really stopped when she heard this, then looked Xia Runlin up and down, and asked uncertainly: "Is it okay for you to go home wearing this outfit?"
"It's okay. Sun Kunpeng will come to pick me up later and help me bring clothes." Xia Runlin explained.
It turned out that it was Brother Sun who came to pick me up.
Xu Xinxin immediately said, "Then wait for a moment. I'll go to the vegetable garden and pick some fresh vegetables for you to bring back!"
"No.
Xia Runlin stretched out his right hand, but before he could finish his words, he saw her running away like the wind.
He just watched Xu Xinxin running away and couldn't help but smile.
When Xu Xinxin came over with a large basket of vegetables, Xia Runlin had already finished a bowl of porridge and was squatting by the well, holding the bowl and washing it.
Does he know that he is still sick?
Xu Xinxin was anxious. She put down her basket and ran over to stop him: "Take a rest. Don't touch the cold water, or I will have saved you in vain."
She bought him with 250 system coins, so it's very expensive.
