"It is also possible that you will awaken your superpowers for the second time." Hua Jingye said.
He Yi contemplated for a while, and finally said, "Keep going and join Team 3."
At least the current situation is not that everyone has a fever.
The few of them quickly finished their lunch.
Chi Xingshu asked: "They can't eat, so we just give them water?"
"Well, that's the only way." He Yiguan nodded.
In the afternoon, He Yiguan took over the driving job while Fang Zheming kept an eye on the surrounding situation.
Hua Jingye laid Jin Junwen down, untied her hair, and let her rest her head on his legs so that she could be more comfortable.
What followed was a two-day and one-night long journey on the road, which they had to spend only in the car.
Hua Jingye clipped the thermometer on her and put his fingers on her neck. Her temperature kept rising.
It was rare to see her not being alert, but that was when she was unconscious.
In the evening, He Yikuan and Fang Zheming got off the car to move around for a while, and then continued their journey at night.
The light from the car lights was the only bright color on the dark highway.
Hua Jingye dozed off leaning against the back of the chair, taking Jin Junwen's temperature every hour and wiping her neck and behind her ears with alcohol.
Chi Xingshu took out the thermometer in the middle of the night and asked, "Forty degrees, are you sure you won't become stupid due to the fever?"
Hua Jingye moistened Jin Junwen's lips with a cotton swab and said, "If she has super powers, it shouldn't happen. The current situation does seem to be a second awakening of super powers. She doesn't have the restless characteristics of turning into a zombie."
"The temperature has dropped."
"Give me the key. The handcuffs are uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Chi Xingshu handed him the key.
Hua Jingye opened the handcuffs and saw the marks on her wrists in the light of the desk lamp. He pursed his lips and rubbed them through a half-wet towel.
I should have put a layer of cloth inside the handcuffs.
He raised his hand and touched her still hot cheek, then quickly put it down.
Around five in the morning, before Hua Jingye opened his eyes, he raised his hand to touch her forehead, preparing to take her temperature again.
The eyelashes under her palm trembled slightly. Hua Jingye moved his hand away, lowered his head to look at her, and just met her eyes in the dim light.
"Captain Jin, you're awake." He turned on the desk lamp.
He Yiguan in front glanced back.
Jin Junwen moved and grabbed the chair to get up.
Hua Jingye helped her up and asked, "How do you feel?"
"I feel a little weak." She sat for a while and replied, "Give me a bottle of water. No, give me an empty bottle."
Mouth tastes a bit bitter.
Hua Jingye took out a cup from the side.
After glancing at who was driving, Jin Junwen asked, "Where's Hua Zui?"
"Captain, she has a fever just like you." Chi Xingshu replied.
"When? How long have I been burning?"
"Hua Zui caught the fever at 11 o'clock yesterday morning. You have been having the fever for a whole day and night. Now it is the next morning."
Jin Junwen nodded, "Dafang, please slow down, I'll rinse my mouth."
Fang Zheming slowed down.
Hua Jingye watched her take out toiletries from her backpack, leaned her head out of the car window a little, let a stream of water condense from her palm into the cup, and washed herself leaning against the car window.
When she poked her head back, he asked, "Awakened water power?"
"Yeah." Jin Junwen turned to look at him, "I'm hungry."
Very hungry.
There was a strong smell of alcohol on her body, and it felt like she was being pickled.
In fact, when she woke up, he hadn't opened his eyes yet. After about a minute or two, he closed his eyes and subconsciously touched her forehead to check her temperature. His other hand was touching something nearby, probably looking for a thermometer.
Hua Jingye wiped his hands with a wet towel and took out a piece of bread. "Eat something first, then take your temperature."
He handed her the thermometer, and after she clamped the thermometer, he tore open the bread wrapper and handed it to her.
