Shattered glass struck him, and the young man turned his head in horror to see that the car door on his side was deformed and twisted, with a stone pillar lying across his seat and the door above him.
It turned out that a car was trying to avoid a pedestrian and suddenly turned the steering wheel. As a result, the car went out of control and crashed into a pillar. The pillar then tilted uncontrollably toward the car where Xiao Jin was.
Xiao Jin saw this scene and pushed the young man in the driver's seat down just as the stone pillar was about to smash him into a pulp.
The young man, still shaken, trembled for a moment before hurriedly saying to Xiao Jin, "Thank you, thank you, if it weren't for you..."
Looking at the young man whose face was covered in snot and tears, Xiao Jin couldn't help but frown: "What are you still dawdling over there for? Do you want to die?"
It turned out that due to the broken car window, acid rain was dripping into the car from the outside.
The young man, realizing what had happened, clutched his arm and cried out. This time, Xiao Jin didn't even need to remind him; he scrambled up and jumped onto the back seat.
The corrosive acid rain sizzled as it fell on the leather seats, and a strong, pungent odor filled the air. Not far away, a car suddenly exploded, and the powerful impact exacerbated the damage to the windshield, causing the cracks to gradually spread to cover the entire pane of glass.
"What to do, what to do!" The young man in the back seat began to panic, his legs shaking like a leaf.
Xiao Jin didn't even look at him. She took out a protective suit from her spatial storage, quickly put it on, and then threw another protective suit at the young man.
"Put them on!"
The young man grasped at a straw, seeing Xiao Jin as if he had seen his second parents, and he felt grateful as he dressed.
However, the young man paused in his grip on the protective suit. Did this person have something in his hand when he got on the bus?
Dressed neatly, Xiao Jin pushed open the car door and got out. The young man in the back seat swallowed nervously, then bit his lip, closed his eyes, and decided to go for it!
He pushed open the door and stood on the street. When the weight of the raindrops hit him, the young man couldn't help but flinch. He was prepared to face the excruciating pain. But a minute later, the young man excitedly opened his eyes, touched his unharmed body, and grinned from ear to ear!
Wow, this is good stuff!
"Hurry up and leave!" Xiao Jin turned around and looked at the young man standing blankly by the car, and said coldly.
"Oh, here I come!" The young man walked up to Xiao Jin in a few steps.
Only then did he have time to look around, and what he saw startled him.
Several cars were tangled together, and thick white smoke billowed from the flames of the explosions. On the ground were many unidentified red and black humanoid figures curled up.
Some of these people were seriously injured by acid rain because they didn't have time to take shelter from the rain, while others were involved in car accidents.
The young man's face paled beneath the mask, and he immediately covered his mouth tightly.
No spitting out, absolutely no spitting out, this protective suit is completely sealed!
Just as I was overcoming my psychological reaction, a person suddenly ran out from the side. The person's face was completely corroded by acid rain, and strips of clothing hung on his body, which was covered with blisters and holes.
"Hehe~"
The other party made a strange sound and immediately reached out towards Xiao Jin's protective suit.
The young man was startled, but the next second he saw Xiao Jin raise his leg and kick the man away.
The other person fell to the ground with a thud. Xiao Jin walked past him calmly, while the young man walked behind him, seemingly reluctant.
He stood beside that person and looked up at Xiao Jin's back: "This..."
"If you want to save him, give him your clothes!"
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately suppressed his pity. Didn't he see the terrible scene outside? He only had this one protective suit, his life-saving item. What would happen to him if he gave it away?
Besides... even if I gave him the clothes, he might not survive.
The young man looked at the person on the ground, a look of pity on his face.
Suddenly, the person lying on the ground spat out a mouthful of blood, and two round black holes on his face stared straight at the young man.
A voice as if it had been sanded smooth: "Help...me, my...clothes..."
After saying that, the man grabbed the young man's leg, scaring him so much that he jumped and ran away.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't save you." The young man's lips trembled.
Xiao Jin slowly withdrew her gaze, frowning as she glanced at the subtle stares coming from her surroundings.
A protective suit that allows one to walk normally in acid rain undoubtedly increases the survival rate. As the only two people standing on the street, Xiao Jin and her companion are quite conspicuous at this moment!
When those hiding nearby looked over, their eyes were filled with longing, greed, envy, and scrutiny.
We can't stay here.
Xiao Jin didn't know when the acid rain would stop, but once the people around her regained their mobility, they would definitely gather around her immediately. She remembered that the city library was not far away.
Unlike large supermarkets, libraries don't have many survivors. Moreover, to protect the books, library buildings are mostly made of moisture-proof and rain-proof materials, which are even more effective at resisting initial acid rain than residential buildings.
After deciding on her goal, Xiao Jin headed straight for the library.
After arriving here, there were far fewer vehicles and pedestrians. Avoiding the gazes of those on either side, Xiao Jin arrived at the entrance of the city library.
The library doors were closed at the moment. Citizens were no longer allowed to enter when the announcement was made at noon. Of course, at that time, the national supplies were not yet under control, and people were busy hoarding supplies. They had no time to come to the library to borrow books.
Without hesitation, Xiao Jin pulled out a dagger and destroyed the chains while the young man behind him stared in disbelief.
"Hey... what are you doing?" The young man waved his hand in a panic: "Do you know that what you're doing is illegal?"
Xiao Jin didn't even turn his head as he unchained himself and went inside: "No one will care anymore!"
"What?"
"They can't afford to worry about this!"
"How could that be? Places like this have alarms. Someone would know as soon as you go in. Get out quickly!" The young man's voice was extremely anxious.
"If you want to get soaked in acid rain outside, then don't come in."
Seeing that Xiao Jin remained unmoved, the young man became so angry that he jumped up and down: "I didn't do this, and I won't testify for you even when the police come."
The young man felt uneasy at this point, as it made him seem heartless, especially since the other party had saved his life twice!
So after holding it in for a while, the young man added, "But if no one asks me, I won't tell them your name."
"Oh? By the way, my name is Tan Dong. What's your name?"
At this point, Tan Dong suddenly realized that he still didn't know the name of the person who saved him!
