Chapter 81 Old Friends



After Song Yi took a few sips of coconut water, Wei Bin reached out his hand and asked for some more: "Okay, Song Yi, don't drink too much."

Song Yi put down the coconut with satisfaction, and seeing me standing to the side, she handed the coconut to me: "Sister, you can have some too."

I shook my head: "It's okay, I'll save it for you. Anxin and the others will open one for me."

Song Yi pretended to be angry: "Sister, you dislike me."

I immediately waved my hand: "No, no, I was just thinking that you could have a sip to quench your thirst when you were thirsty."

Song Yi handed me the coconut again: "It's okay. Didn't Brother Wei Bin say I shouldn't drink too much? You should drink some first. Look at you, you're all sweaty."

I wiped the sweat from my brow and smiled as I took the coconut. The coconut water was sweet and refreshing; on such a hot day, a sip of this natural beverage was incredibly comforting. I sat down next to Song Yi and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

Song Yi nodded: "Yes, much better, I've stopped throwing up."

I nodded with relief: "That's good."

Almost two hours had passed, and we didn't know if Ji Lin'an and the others had arrived at the supply center yet. We stayed where we were, afraid to leave, lest they come back and not be able to find us.

Around noon, having only eaten cashew pears and cashews for breakfast, we were starving. Fortunately, there was still coconut meat left, so we pried it open and ate the meat to temporarily relieve our hunger.

Wufeng looked like he hadn't had enough: "It's not enough. How about I go pick some more? It'll quench our thirst and we can eat the fruit too."

I nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you."

Wu Feng shook his head: "Haha, forget it, your little arms and legs won't be of much use."

I rolled my eyes at Wufeng: "I only said I'd come along to protect you because I was worried you wouldn't have any weapons."

Wu Feng smiled apologetically, "Oh, I see. I'm sorry I didn't understand your good intentions. But you really don't need to come with me. The sun is so strong at noon. Let An Xin come with me. An Xin has a gun and is strong."

I turned to look at An Xin: "Sure, An Xin, you can go with Wu Feng."

An Xin nodded: "Okay, can you guys manage here?"

I waved my hand and said, "No problem, go ahead and pick more so that Lao Ji and the others will have something to eat when they get back."

After saying that, the two headed towards the place where we picked coconuts. Song Yi was still lying weakly on the rock. I picked a large leaf and spread it on the ground, lying lazily. Just as I was about to fall asleep, I heard the sound of a branch breaking. I wondered who got up. I looked up and saw Dai Qiang and the others sleeping by the tree. Wei Bin was also sitting by Song Yi's rock. There were quite a few people.

I immediately stood up alertly, gun in hand, and looked around cautiously. As I walked to a corner, something suddenly struck my back. I fell to the ground in pain and turned around to see a tall man in front of me attacking me again with a tree branch as thick as an arm. I instinctively reached out to block, but there was no pain as I expected. The next second, I heard a male voice: "Su Yi."

I lowered my hand and looked up. The man in front of me was Chen Hu, but his expression was somewhat blank, and his voice did not come from in front of me. A female voice then came from behind: "Su Yi, we are here."

The Chen Hu in front of me was motionless, it seemed to be a clone of Chen Hu. I followed the sound and saw Jiang Kexin, who was Chen Hu, waving at me from behind a tree diagonally opposite. I tried to get up but the pain in my back prevented me from moving. Seeing this, Jiang Kexin quickly ran over: "Are you alright, Su Yi?"

Chen Hu followed closely behind Jiang Kexin, who angrily scolded him: "It's all your fault! You didn't even look carefully before you attacked, and you hit so hard!"

Chen Hu quickly squatted down: "I'm so sorry, Su Yi. I didn't see it was you. I saw you holding a gun from behind. I was afraid you would turn around and shoot me dead, so I was so ruthless."

I shook my head with a wry smile: "It's nothing, but you really hurt. I feel like my whole back is swollen."

Chen Hu looked apologetic: "In the movies, they always knock someone out with a single blow to the back. I was worried that if I didn't hit them hard enough, they wouldn't pass out."

Jiang Kexin reached out to support me: "Let me take a look at your wound."

Jiang Kexin turned her head and said angrily, "Chen Hu, turn around."

Chen Hu immediately turned his back to us, and Jiang Kexin reached out and pulled up the back of my clothes. I instinctively flinched and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I shouldn't be hurt. Just help me up."

Jiang Kexin helped me up, dragging and pulling me along: "Why are you here all alone? Where are Ji Lin'an and the others?"

I said, "It's right up ahead."

Jiang Kexin pondered for a few seconds and then said, "So it was you we discovered."

I asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Kexin said, "Chen Hu just used his skill to hear that there were people here. We thought we'd try our luck, take care of a few lucky ones, get some skills, and see if we could find any supplies or anything."

Listen? Could it be the ability to hear everything? I remember that the repair space for the clairvoyant corresponds to the ability to hear everything, so I asked casually, "You guys have the ability to hear everything?"

Chen Hu nodded: "Yeah, I just got it this morning. I was just eager to try it out, and then I ran into you."

I was overjoyed. If Chen Hu had super hearing, then there would definitely be a repair space. That way, Chen Hu could help us fix the phone. But for now, we can't let them know that I can't use my skills. After all, you can't be too careful. Right now, I'm all alone and have no skills. If they suddenly have bad intentions, I'm doomed.

I put on a smiling face: "You guys haven't teamed up to collect supplies yet?"

Jiang Kexin said helplessly, "Don't even mention it. We originally gathered 10 people and only received supplies once. Less than two hours after receiving the supplies, someone in the team betrayed us, stole our supplies, and even tried to take our skills. Everyone started killing each other and fighting for supplies. Fortunately, Chen Hu had a clone, so we escaped and even gained a skill in the process."

I nodded: "I see. We also have a team. Why don't you follow us? Our team is just ahead. You should have heard us earlier."

Jiang Kexin and Chen Hu exchanged a glance: "Fine, but can you walk there?"

I forced back pain to subside and said, "It's okay, let's go, I'll take you there."

I can't let them see that my injuries are serious for the time being. I sensed Jiang Kexin's scheming as early as when he was hiding the fact that Chen Hu had a child.

I led Jiang Kexin and Chen Hu back to the main group. An Xin and Wu Feng had already returned. Everyone looked anxious. When An Xin saw that I had returned safely, he immediately walked towards me. When he saw Chen Hu and Wu Feng behind him, he stopped and looked at them warily: "Su Yi, your... friend?"

I nodded: "Yes, these two are friends of mine from before I came to G City."

I explained what had just happened to everyone, and they all relaxed their guard after getting to know each other.
