Looking up at the ceiling, she walked straight out of the bathroom and rushed downstairs. On the third floor, she bumped into Li Yao, who was also coming downstairs, and casually asked, "Where are you going downstairs?"
His captain is up there.
Li Yao: "The captain told me to turn on the water valve, saying I wanted to take a shower. What kind of time is this to be so clean? Really."
It seems He Bing didn't tell him about that, thank goodness, otherwise it would have been too awkward.
She'd been a good girl for over twenty years, never even seen a movie. Do you know how much of an impact that one glance today had on her?
Not one, not two, but four!
I vaguely remember that He Bing had his eyes open at the time, and we made eye contact for about 0.5 seconds.
Let's not see each other again. She doesn't even know how to look at him anymore.
"Then take care of yourselves, I'm going to find my partner Xie Yin."
Jiang Shu ran very fast. Li Yao watched her back and his eyes dimmed. He was not good enough for a girl like her.
The captain said she was the one who dealt with the monster. When they first came, everyone said they would help her if they encountered it, but now it's the other way around.
Men's pride can sometimes be childish; they don't want women to be too weak, nor do they want them to be too strong.
On the way, Jiang Shuyin tapped the system.
The fact that the other person was pretending to be dead meant that Xie Yin was nearby. She circled around and found him on the roof of the building she had just come down from.
He waved vigorously at him, and Xie Yin seemed to smile. He stepped back from the rooftop and walked out from around the corner downstairs: "You used Qingwu's ability?"
Jiang Shuyin's smile gradually froze, and she nodded slightly at him.
Xie Yin: "Is that ability stronger than Qingwu's, or are there any restrictions on its use?"
Jiang Shuyin glanced at the cooldown time of the illusion and estimated that it would take 12 hours to cool down: "It will take a long time after using it once."
Xie Yin understood that this was different from the Black Mist Clan. Their abilities were like a human hand, which could be used at will, but overuse would cause mental fatigue.
Passing by a building, I saw another tentacle monster's corpse, half of its body already melting away.
Jiang Shuyin frowned and stopped to look: "Will it pollute the environment?"
Xie Yin chuckled: "It contains 80% water, and the remaining 20% is a sponge-like material that can be recycled."
Suddenly inspired, Jiang Shuyin's eyes lit up: "It would be great if there were shops that sold monsters, that would be more fulfilling."
Xie Yin: "It will happen."
He Bing searched the room and found a few clothes left by the original owner. He put them on and stood by the window looking down. The young couple were walking and chatting. If it weren't for the fact that his shorts were still empty, he probably would have thought this wasn't a post-apocalyptic world teeming with monsters.
"Not even a pair of underwear left?" Zhang Di searched the wardrobe thoroughly, but found nothing.
Li Yao leaned against the doorway, suppressing a laugh.
He Bing sighed and said, "Forget it, the important thing now is to clear out the monsters."
Zhang Di took a couple of steps but still couldn't take it anymore: "It's shaking so badly, I..."
"Get lost, what are you showing off for? Everyone's got a big physique, right? You're the only one who's tall!" Liu Fei threw a punch, and Zhang Di covered his face and became obedient.
This situation didn't only occur with the elite team at the Eastern Base; the Central Base was also caught in the monster's body. Their captain possessed dual metal and water elemental abilities, allowing him to release countless metal blades to peel his teammates off the monster's body. After discovering that the monster's weakness was its need for water, he temporarily mastered the skill of absorbing water.
The monster's tentacles attacked, absorbing with one hand and severing with the other.
Just as their superpowers were about to run out, the team managed to defeat the monster.
Jiang Shuyin looked up at them and said, "The people at the central base are stronger."
Xie Yin: "With a large population base, it takes stronger capital to stand out."
Jiang Shuyin: "I want to finish this task and go home. It's been almost a month since I've been home, and I miss my parents."
Xie Yin didn't understand this kind of emotion, but he took everything lightly. He let his partner do whatever she wanted; he was simply following her to familiarize himself with human society.
"Where's Heimei?" Jiang Shuyin thought of her second child. Xie Yin looked at the pocket on his chest, where a soft little girl was sitting, asleep from being rocked. "She can heal, and she's more useful than I thought."
This seems to demonstrate the Black Mist Clan's self-healing ability; as long as one cell remains alive, they can regenerate. If Black Plum could master this level of skill, humanity should revere her as their savior.
It was noon when Jiang Shuyin found a bench by the roadside and sat down. She took out a chocolate and shared half with Xie Yin. People from the Central Base and the Eastern Base appeared in the square, but people from the Northern Base and the Southern Base were nowhere to be seen.
Jiang Shuyin turned her head away, not wanting to meet He Bing and the others' gaze. She lay on her knees and ate chocolate, the sweet taste spreading in her mouth. But this blissful moment was shattered when she smelled the oil they were burning on a fire.
He Bing was slicing potatoes, Li Yao was washing chili peppers with water from his teammate who had a water-based superpower, and Liu Fei was slicing ham. Everything was so orderly.
No, what time is it?
"It's your favorite shredded potatoes." Xie Yin looked over there.
To save time, the central base brought canned meat. They gave He Bing a can in exchange for a pot of rice. He Bing and his teammates discussed it:
"It was Jiang Shu who rescued the four of us just now."
“Me too, five of us.” Li Yao raised his hand.
He Bing glanced at him: "Five. I originally wanted to invite her over for dinner, but after that incident, she's too shy to come. I'm thinking of giving her this can of meat. Would you agree? I'll cook today's meal."
"Okay, no problem."
“We are a team. She saved you, which indirectly helped our team. It’s only right.”
"Why not get to know and befriend such an amazing young lady?"
With everyone's agreement, He Bing asked Li Yao to deliver it: "She's more familiar with you, she'll feel uncomfortable if I go over."
Li Yao knew this too, so he activated his speed ability and rushed to Jiang Shuyin's side, putting down the canned food and saying, "Thank you for the gift, please accept it."
He quickly returned to his original spot and smiled at Jiang Shuyin.
The people at the central base watched this as a spectacle: "Captain, those guys from the Eastern Base are all so charming, using our stuff to pick up girls, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Yang Kang glanced at him sideways: "Aren't you going to eat rice later?"
teammate:"......"
Jiang Shuyin looked at the thank-you gift beside her. In this society where the market has collapsed and the production chain has been disrupted, natural food has become scarce. Jiang Shuyin had not eaten meat for two months and had not eaten vegetables since she left home.
The hot and sour shredded potatoes smelled so good that she opened the can of meat. The beef inside was stewed until tender, and the aroma of braised meat filled the air. The can was only the size of her palm. She took a sniff and handed it to Xie Yin first: "Why don't you have a bite first?"
Her intuition told her that Xie Yin was unwilling to taste other people's saliva, and he definitely wouldn't accept a fork that she had used.
Xie Yin's gaze lingered on her trembling little finger: "No need, I don't eat meat."
