But just then, her ears twitched.
Xiao Jin heard a low engine sound, as if some large vehicle was approaching.
Xiao Jin turned her head to look in the direction from which the sound came.
Soon, a convoy of fully armed vehicles came into her view.
It was a supplies collection team, and the vehicle was loaded with all kinds of supplies, clearly they had just returned from outside.
Xiao Jin's eyes lit up: "Oh right, how could I forget about them?"
Xiao Jin then headed towards the patrol team's encampment.
Because both supplies collection and rescue operations fall under the jurisdiction of the patrol team, and personnel are usually dispatched from there.
…………
The patrol team's base was located in the central area of the inner city, in a three-story building.
Xiao Jin walked through the gate and found that a lot of people had already gathered inside. Some were standing, some were sitting, and their faces were full of tension and anticipation.
"Are you here to register?" A member of the patrol team stepped forward, glanced at Xiao Jin's face, and asked.
However, his tone sounded somewhat hesitant.
It's because Xiao Jin looks too deceptive; he's fair-skinned, has a rather slender build, and his wrists are so thin that he could easily hold them in one hand.
When the patrol team members questioned him, Xiao Jin didn't say anything, but instead said, "I'm here to hand over supplies."
The staff member was somewhat surprised. He first showed a happy expression, but then frowned.
The other person looked Xiao Jin up and down and found that she had nothing on her. He immediately became angry, thinking that Xiao Jin was there to make fun of him.
"It's very busy here, don't cause trouble," the staff member said impatiently, with a hint of warning in his tone.
"If it weren't for your good looks, I would have kicked you out long ago."
Xiao Jin ignored his attitude and calmly said, "I do have supplies to hand over, but they are not on my person. You will need to go and get them yourself."
The staff member sneered: "Do you know how dangerous it is outside right now? You can just order people out with a few words. Fine! I'll let it slide this time since you're young."
"If you keep bothering me, I'll send you to the enforcement team!" The staff member was about to kick him out.
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people rushed in, led by a man with a cold and stern gaze. He shouted, "Someone is injured! There's no time to get them to the medical building. Call a doctor right away!"
"Oh, okay, okay!" The staff member immediately forgot about Xiao Jin and ran to call the doctor.
Fortunately, the satellite was still intact, allowing communications within the inner city to continue operating normally.
Xiao Jin was pushed aside, and her gaze swept over the group of people, noticing that they were all injured.
The team member who was carried in had a large gash cut open in his stomach, his intestines were sticking out, and his clothes were stained with blood.
"What happened?" someone asked anxiously.
"On the way back, we encountered a mutated ivy, and Zhang Cheng's stomach was ripped open," a team member replied, panting heavily, his face full of fear and exhaustion.
Those around them looked fearful, especially the newcomers who had just signed up for the patrol team; their faces were filled with regret and unease.
Just then, the injured Zhang Cheng suddenly began to convulse violently, and his breathing became rapid. His face was as pale as paper, and he was clearly about to collapse.
"Hey, hey, where's the doctor? Why hasn't he come yet!" someone shouted anxiously.
"Zhang Cheng, hang in there! Your daughter is waiting for you at home!" Zhang Cheng's teammate shouted, his eyes red and his voice trembling.
Just when everyone was at a loss, an arm suddenly reached in from behind the crowd and stuffed a red pill into Zhang Cheng's mouth.
Those around him didn't even have time to react before they watched helplessly as Zhang Cheng swallowed the pill.
"Snap!" A large hand gripped the fair wrist tightly.
"What are you doing?" The cold-faced man's gaze was icy, and his tone carried a hint of murderous intent.
The surrounding air fell silent instantly, and then someone angrily shouted at Xiao Jin, "What did you feed him?"
Xiao Jin remained calm and composed under pressure: "A miracle drug."
"Special medicine? What special medicine? Are you crazy?! If anything happens to Zhang Cheng, even if it violates the inner city rules, I will kill you to avenge him!" a team member shouted angrily, reaching out to grab Xiao Jin.
"Wait!" Just then, Chen Yiming suddenly spoke up to stop them.
He had initially thought Xiao Jin was a troublemaking madman, and the murderous intent in his eyes was almost impossible to suppress. But when he inadvertently glanced at Zhang Cheng, his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Quickly, stuff Zhang Cheng's intestines back in!" Chen Yiming shouted.
"Huh?" The people around were taken aback.
But when they looked at Zhang Cheng, they realized why Chen Yiming was so agitated: Zhang Cheng's wounds were healing at a speed that defied normal norms.
"No...no way! What's going on?"
Chen Yiming pushed aside the people around Zhang Cheng and stuffed the intestines back into his abdomen himself.
After all that happened last night, Chen Yiming gave Xiao Jin a deep look: Was it the effect of that medicine?
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Cheng's stomach.
Sure enough, the gruesome wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The bleeding stopped, and the skin grew back as if it had never been injured.
"This...how is this possible?" someone muttered to themselves, their face filled with disbelief.
The whole process took no more than five minutes, and Zhang Cheng's wound had completely healed, and even his breathing had become steady.
After a long while, Zhang Cheng slowly opened his eyes, looking around blankly: "I...I'm still alive?"
"Zhang Cheng! You're alright!" his teammate shouted excitedly, his eyes filled with tears.
Everyone around was stunned. After they came to their senses, they all turned their gazes to Xiao Jin, their eyes filled with burning desire.
If I had one of those amazing drugs, wouldn't I no longer have to worry about being killed by mutants?
"What did you feed him?" someone asked, quick-wittedly.
Although his tone carried a hint of shock, it could not hide the greed and covetousness in his eyes.
Xiao Jin remained calm and said indifferently, "I already said, it's a special medicine."
"and you……"
"Alright!" Chen Yiming suddenly interrupted the man's question, looking at Xiao Jin with a complicated expression: "Everyone still has injuries, let's go find a doctor to treat them first, so as not to get infected."
"At this time, if you get infected, treatment will be very difficult."
Seeing Chen Yiming speak up to stop them, some people were unwilling, but still dared not disobey him.
After all, they knew that such precious medicine was not something they could even dream of!
Xiao Jin naturally understood Chen Yiming's unspoken words. After exchanging a glance with him, both of them had their own answers.
