"right."
"Just like that kid Xu Xiaoxiao."
Xu Bai was so happy that he even quickened his pace. He walked so fast that he didn't even pay attention to Ji Heng.
Ji Heng didn't understand the relationship between Qin Tian and Xu Bai, and felt a little jealous, but he still walked towards Qin Tian's room with an expressionless face.
Shi Qinghe quickened her pace and walked beside Ji Heng, whispering, "Qin Tian just woke up, Xu Bai might be quite excited, let's not take it to heart."
Facing Shi Qinghe's sympathetic eyes, Ji Heng said nothing.
"You are walking so slowly, hurry up, we still have to go see Qin Tian. When Qin Tian knows that we are together, he will definitely be happy for us." After Xu Bai calmed down, he found that Ji Heng and the others had not caught up yet. He turned around to find Ji Heng, walked up to him, took his hand, pulled him away, and said to him while looking up.
Ji Heng turned his head and smiled at Shi Qinghe, as if responding to what Shi Qinghe had just said.
Shi Qinghe: "..." The clown was actually himself.
"He saved me several times a long time ago. Unfortunately, Qin Tian doesn't remember it, but I always remember it in my heart."
Xu Bai had never mentioned this to them. Ji Heng was surprised. He had a lot to ask, but he didn't know where to start.
"It was a long time ago, so you can just think of him as a good brother like my savior."
Seeing that Xu Bai didn't want to mention it anymore, Ji Heng didn't ask any more questions, but Ji Heng was very pleased with Xu Bai's explanation.
Qin Tian was lying on the bed.
When she saw Xu Bai coming in holding Ji Heng's hand, her eyes lit up. Then she leaned against the bed and said congratulations to Ji Heng.
"It seems that I missed a lot of things during the time I mutated."
"Well, what do the doctors and scientific medical technicians say? Can this state be maintained forever?"
Qin Tian shook his head. "It's still under observation. I'm not sure when it will suddenly mutate."
The atmosphere then grew heavy, and Shi Qinghe livened it up. "It's good enough to be able to stay sober now. This is a new beginning. Things will get better and better later on. We should think positively."
"Qin Tian, it's a good time for you to recover. Please persuade them. Why don't they take me with them when they go out? Am I that bad?"
After listening to Shi Qinghe's accusation, Qin Tian felt a little overwhelmed for a moment and looked at Shi Qinghe helplessly.
He rarely sees anyone change their mind once Xu Bai makes a decision.
Qin Tian paused for a long moment before looking at Xu Bai. "Xu Bai, be careful when you get out there. Call us anytime."
"I remember that the northwest area was completely disconnected from us, or even Shangjing City, for a long time. No one knows the situation over there. Qinghe's worry is not unreasonable. We are very worried about you two going out."
"Given my current physical condition, I think I can go out with you."
Xu Bai rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't get involved. Just recuperate in the city and wait for us to come back. When we come back, I hope there will be good news again."
Qin Tian stood up with an anklet on his foot. The anklet was about one meter long to prevent Qin Tian from suddenly mutating and attacking others.
"Okay, just protect yourself."
"Ji Heng, Xu Bai's safety is entrusted to you."
Xu Bai looked at Qin Tian and seemed to have returned to his previous life. Qin Tian had once given the same instructions to another man. Thinking of the dead Bai Louyue, Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.
Bai Louyue died too early, and she forgot to ask him how he died in his previous life.
Did the zombies defeat humans and destroy them all, or was Bai Louyue killed by the zombies alone?
Xu Bai came back to his senses when he heard Ji Heng's response to Qin Tian.
"It's time to take medicine."
Xu Bai took a few steps back to make way for Dr. Qin who came in.
Normally, the nurses would come to deliver the medicine, but today the nurses were called away by other doctors to help, so Dr. Qin came to the research building to deliver the medicine by himself.
Although it was a scorching summer day, Dr. Qin was wrapped up tightly.
Xu Bai caught a glimpse of the abnormal hair faintly visible at the bottom of Doctor Qin's trouser legs, and then looked at Doctor Qin again, who seemed quite frightened, as if he was afraid that they would stay here for a long time.
Xu Bai lamented, "Doctor Qin, if you have any problems, you can treat it together with Qin Tian. There is no need to be afraid. The sooner you get treated, the sooner you will get better."
"If you don't suppress it, you'll end up like Qin Tian did before."
Qin Tian originally mutated at night and became a half-orc, but in the later stages, under a lot of bad circumstances, he easily turned into a zombie.
Doctor Qin's hand holding the medicine shook and the medicine spilled on the ground. She squatted down in panic to pick it up.
"I don't know what the city lord is talking about?"
Xu Bai frowned slightly, looking at her in confusion. "Doctor Qin, you're a medical professional. You should know better than anyone else. What if you have a seizure and hurt other patients?"
"Or do you think you can keep it a secret forever? I'm not blind, and no one thinks you need to do anything during your treatment. What are you afraid of?"
Doctor Qin lowered his head, unable to hold back his tears, which fell to the ground.
"I'm just scared. I'm scared that others will look at me strangely. I'm scared that people in the city will point fingers at me. I'm scared that they will be scared of me." Doctor Qin picked up the medicine and put it on the tray, tears streaming down his face.
Xu Bai pursed his lips and said nothing more, just watching Dr. Qin calm himself down.
"Well, is Doctor Qin also going to mutate? Infected? When?" Shi Qinghe scratched her hair, her eyes constantly scanning Doctor Qin, observing how Xu Bai discovered it.
Dr. Qin had no choice but to confess, "Two or three months ago, when everyone was isolated in the hospital, I accidentally scratched my ankle."
"At first, nothing happened to me. I was hoping for the best. But it wasn't until the past two weeks that I started to get innocently covered in animal hair. I realized I couldn't escape it."
"The city now also accepts orcs."
Doctor Qin choked up and nodded, "Yes, I know, but I can't accept it myself."
"When I was isolated in the hospital, I was thinking about saving as many lives as possible. By the time I was done, I had forgotten about it. Only when some superficial symptoms appeared did I remember it. By then, I no longer had the courage to speak."
"Have you ever thought about what you would ask others to do if it were an airborne disease?"
Xu Bai's questioning made Dr. Qin feel ashamed.
By then she will be a great sinner in Dawn City.
"Doctor Qin has been receiving treatment in the room next to Qin Tian for the time being. I will explain the situation to the hospital."
Doctor Qin nodded, quietly left and went to the next room, and took the initiative to inform the other person in charge of the research building.
"When it happens to ourselves, it's always easy to get confused." Xu Bai looked outside the door, speechless. At this time, should she be thankful that Dr. Qin didn't bite other people and spread the disease?
