Chapter 159 Getting a Fever from Being in the Rain [25]
I heard that the rain was black, and some people went to see for themselves out of curiosity.
Some people even reached out to take it.
The rainwater in my palm was indeed a darker color, like blackish-gray.
"It really is black! Will there be any problem with that?"
"Huh? It shouldn't be that bad!"
"Go wash it clean, make sure there are no bacteria."
Upon hearing this, the person became a little worried and went to the restroom to wash their hands.
At this moment, Achu was choosing a room with Chenwang.
She chose a clean, unoccupied room on the first floor.
The rain outside the window was pouring down.
Achu walked to the window and looked at the black rain curtain.
Having read the plot, she naturally knew that the acid rain had lasted for three whole days.
I also know the changes that acid rain has brought to the world.
Even if Song Jiahe hadn't suggested waiting for the rain to stop, A Chu was prepared to find an excuse to have Shen Wang take the convoy to the service area to rest ahead of time.
Since Song Jiahe brought it up, it saved her the trouble of finding an excuse.
Now, all I have to do is wait in this hotel for three days.
"Brother Chenwang, this rain looks really strange. Do you think there might be zombie virus in the rainwater? Like, if you get rained on, you'll get infected?"
Achu turned to look at Chen Wang behind her, her eyes filled with worry and fear.
Shen Wang also felt that the rain was a bit strange, and his brows furrowed slightly.
However, he first reassured Achu: "Don't worry, it shouldn't be that bad."
Achu continued to look out the window at the heavy rain, muttering, "I hope it's just my imagination."
The two stayed in the room for a while, then went out together back to the hotel lobby.
Upon seeing Achu and Shen Wang, Maiya and the others gathered around.
Malt: "Boss, Mianmian, the rainwater is black! How amazing!"
Yue Tingsong: "Yes! Someone just reached out to take it and looked at it, and it really is black."
Lin Xiangheng: "But it's not as exaggerated as pure black, it just looks like a dark gray."
Ah Chu's comment about "getting infected if you get caught in the rain" must have had some impact on Shen Wang.
So when he heard that someone had reached out and caught the rainwater, Chen Wang's brows furrowed slightly.
Who touched the rainwater? How many people touched it?
Originally, Yue Tingsong and the others were all smiles, but seeing Shen Wang's somewhat serious expression, they also became a little more serious.
Lin Xiangheng asked, "What's wrong, boss? Is there a problem with the rainwater?"
Chen Wang: "Now that there's a zombie virus, and this rain is different from usual, be careful."
Just then, Song Jiahe came downstairs and heard Chen Wang's words.
She was so surprised that she blurted out, "You also know there's something wrong with this rainwater?"
Shen Wang turned to look at Song Jiahe: "Oh? You know there's something wrong with this rainwater."
It wasn't a question, it was an affirmative statement.
Shen Wang recalled that it was Song Jiahe who suggested to Shen Sui that it was going to rain and they should find a place to stop and take shelter from the rain.
Therefore, Song Jiahe knew beforehand that there was something wrong with the rain!
How did she know?
Song Jiahe felt a chill run down her spine under Chen Wang's sharp and intense gaze, and her whole body froze.
She then realized that she had just given herself away!
Song Jiahe opened her mouth, trying to justify herself: "I just thought the color of the rainwater was strange, that's why I guessed it!"
She forced a smile, saying, "Captain Chen, how could I possibly know there's anything wrong with this rain? I didn't order it to rain."
Shen Wang didn't speak, but stared at Song Jiahe for a few seconds until she almost couldn't hold back her gaze before looking away.
He knew, of course, that the rain couldn't have been caused by Song Jiahe.
But that's what makes Song Jiahe so strange.
It was as if she knew in advance that it would rain.
Shen Wang felt he still needed to remind A Chu to stay away from this woman named Song Jiahe.
Song Jiahe thought he had gotten away with it and breathed a sigh of relief.
She secretly decided that she needed to stay away from delusions.
This person gave her a feeling that was even more terrifying than Shen Sui!
No wonder that in his past life, after being infected with the zombie virus, Shen Wang quickly became the zombie king.
.
The rain has been pouring down.
At first, no one really took it seriously.
But the rain didn't lessen at all, even after a whole night.
When they woke up in the morning, they were both annoyed to see that it was still raining heavily outside.
"The rain doesn't seem to be letting up at all!"
Did the rain stop last night?
"I don't know, I was asleep and couldn't hear anything."
"I heard it, the rain didn't stop last night."
"So what do we do today? Travel in the rain?"
"We can't just stay here as long as the rain keeps falling, can we?"
Someone went to ask Yue Tingsong and Lin Xiangheng.
Lin Xiangheng had already received a decision from Shen Wang, so he replied, "This rain looks unusual. Our boss has decided to wait for the rain to stop before we leave."
Lin Xiangheng smiled warmly and said, "You should take a good rest. If you have nothing to do, go back to your rooms and sleep. It must be tiring to be crouched in the car all day."
Hearing this, everyone relaxed.
Someone immediately said in a lighthearted tone, "If that's what you say, Brother Lin, then I'll have to go back to my room and get some sleep. I've been getting up at dawn every day for the past few days, and I've been relying entirely on willpower to keep going!"
"Me too! Before the apocalypse, I wouldn't sleep until the moon did, but now my sleep schedule has been completely regulated!"
"Let's go! Let's go back to our rooms and sleep!"
Those who were lingering in the lobby quickly returned to their rooms.
Lin Xiangheng and Yue Tingsong exchanged a glance: "Let's go, let's talk to the boss."
Just as the two turned around, a girl jogged over and called out to Lin Xiangheng, "Brother Lin, do we have any fever reducers in our team? Chen Wu has a fever!"
Lin Xiangheng nodded seriously: "I have fever reducers, come with me."
Lin Xiangheng took the girl to get fever-reducing medicine and then asked the boy named Chen Wu why he had a fever.
The girl shook her head, equally puzzled: "I don't know. He's always been in good health; he hasn't even had a minor cold in the past few years!"
Lin Xiangheng knew that the girl and the boy named Chen Wu were a couple, so he reassured her, "Don't worry, he's probably just tired from all this time. Give him some fever reducer and let him rest."
The girl nodded, took the fever reducer, thanked him, and left.
After the girl left, Yue Tingsong spoke to Lin Xiangheng: "I know Chen Wu. He reached out the window to catch rainwater yesterday."
“Yesterday, Mianmian said she didn’t know if there was a virus in this Black Rain, and today Chen Wu has a fever… Zombie virus outbreaks always start with fevers. Old Lin, do you think it might…”
Yue Tingsong spoke in a very low voice after that.
The relaxed expression on Lin Xiangheng's face disappeared after the girl left.
He also said in a low voice, "When we awakened our superpowers, it also started with a fever. Let's go tell the boss first."
Yue Tingsong nodded: "Then I do hope that he can awaken his superpowers."
Every additional person with superpowers among humanity brings a greater chance of hope.
