It's not impossible, but we haven't reached that point yet.
Huang Zhao still hoped that Dawn City could continue to develop peacefully.
Now that Alice, a restorer, has joined the team, Huang Zhao has no such worries at all.
Are you injured? I'll heal you right away!
My leg was broken in the morning, but I was jumping around and going out to work again in the afternoon!
This is why Huang Zhao coveted healing-type abilities and was pleasantly surprised when he discovered that Alice's ability was healing-type.
Although among the special ability types, the recovery type has the second largest proportion of abilities after the poison type, and the number of abilities is not small.
However, this is still a special ability type, and it only accounts for one in a thousand of the survivors of awakened human abilities!
Among all human superhumans, the probability of awakening a restoration ability is only one in two hundred thousand.
Among the approximately 500,000 survivors in the entire city of Shanghai, it was already a pleasant surprise that Huang Zhao was able to find one.
As for whether she would be unwilling to stay in Dawn City?
Huang Zhao will not let her go; he will keep her here no matter what method he uses!
Moreover, Huang Zhao didn't think that the conditions he offered would fail to move her.
Thinking of the healing ability, Huang Zhao's attention immediately shifted to Alice's room on the third floor of the shelter.
Huang Zhao noticed that she seemed to be having a nightmare; her forehead was covered in cold sweat, her hands were clenched tightly, and her body was twisting restlessly on the bed.
Its mouth was open as if it were shouting something, but no sound came out.
With a sudden pang of anxiety, Huang Zhao seemed to sense the girl's helplessness, and got up to leave the control center, heading towards the shelter's elevator.
He went to Alice's room and sat on the edge of the bed.
Come to think of it, I don't even know her name...
I didn't even have time to ask...
Huang Zhao held her delicate little hand, which was clenched so tightly that her knuckles had turned white, with one hand, and placed the other hand on her face, which was once again streaked with tears.
He gently wiped away her tears with his thumb, and said softly:
"Don't be afraid..."
You are safe now...
"Don't be afraid..."
Seemingly sensing Huang Zhao's reassurance, Alice's emotions gradually calmed down.
After a while, Huang Zhao noticed that the girl seemed to be opening her eyes and waking up.
The hand covering the girl's cheek was withdrawn instantly, but the other hand, which was being tightly gripped by the girl, could not be pulled away.
Alice slowly opened her somewhat bewildered eyes as she woke up.
The first thing she saw was a crystal chandelier emitting a warm, pale yellow light, but it didn't seem to be in her bedroom.
'Wasn't I in my father's office...?'
No, I was rescued...
As Alice regained some consciousness, she immediately felt that her right hand was now grasping a large, warm hand.
The warmth of the gentle touch still lingered on her right cheek, and she could almost hear a man's tender words of comfort.
Recalling what happened before I fell into a coma, while feeling the warmth of this moment.
Alice suddenly felt a surge of pain, as if her heart was being torn apart.
Tears welled up uncontrollably again, and she cried out loudly, her emotions overflowing.
"Father...Mother..."
Looking at the girl in front of him who was emotionally distraught, Huang Zhao, who had never dealt with such a situation before, subconsciously bent down and hugged Alice's delicate body.
Lacking a good vocabulary, he could only whisper in Alice's ear:
"Don't be afraid..."
You are safe now...
But the response was an even more intense outburst of emotion.
Huang Zhao froze for a moment, and tried to get up and let go of her, but the girl in his arms turned around and hugged him tightly with both hands, unwilling to let go.
Huang Zhao stopped leaving, hugged the soft, feline woman in his arms, and let her cry out her emotions against his chest.
After a long while, Alice stopped crying, loosened her grip on Huang Zhao's hands slightly, and looked up at Huang Zhao cautiously.
He has a sunny, handsome, and very pleasing face, with a quality that Alice often saw in her father.
My mother said that was confidence, one of the best qualities a man can have.
Alice's father built the company from scratch to its current size, and he possesses a confidence that allows him to overcome any difficulty.
Alice saw the same feeling in Huang Zhao.
Huang Zhao looked at the kitten in his arms, which had calmed down and looked like a kitten cautiously testing whether its owner was angry after making a mistake.
Even though her nightgown was soaked with Alice's tears, she couldn't muster a single feeling of blame.
Maintaining a leaning posture without pressing down on Alice, he said to her with a hint of helplessness:
"Can you let me go now?"
Alice suddenly realized that she had been too heartbroken and was afraid of being abandoned again.
At this moment, she was still clinging to Huang Zhao like an octopus, with both her arms and legs hanging on him.
Huang Zhao was already a level three ability user at this time, so even being hung up like this didn't feel like a burden.
Otherwise, he would have already pinned Alice down.
Upon hearing Huang Zhao's words, Alice blushed and quickly released Huang Zhao.
At the same time, he pulled the blanket over the bed, completely covering himself with it, and made barely audible noises:
"I'm...I'm sorry..."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat tense, while Alice's mind was filled with the following thoughts:
'How embarrassing! How could I hug a complete stranger like this?'
My mind went blank; I didn't know how to face Huang Zhao next.
Huang Zhao didn't know how to communicate with Alice, so after a moment of silence, he asked:
"Would you like to take a shower first? The water and electricity are all available here and can be used normally."
Upon hearing Huang Zhao's words, Alice, lying in bed, immediately smelled the odor of not having showered for a week.
Although there was no foul smell, I still felt like I had just come out of a trash can.
Alice didn't realize it until Huang Zhao mentioned it, but the moment he did, she felt like ants were crawling all over her body.
She screamed, threw off the covers, and rushed to the most conspicuous bathroom in the room.
Huang Zhao found it somewhat amusing to see Alice rushing into the bathroom in a Lolita dress and black stockings.
Sure enough, given the opportunity, no girl would accept going so long without showering.
The bathroom was fully equipped with all the necessary bathing facilities, so Huang Zhao didn't need to worry about her asking him for them. He simply waited in the room.
Although the other party wouldn't notice, Huang Zhao wasn't so perverted as to focus his attention on the bathroom and observe others showering.
'I'm not that kind of person!'
Huang Zhao spoke these words with righteous indignation.
Huang Zhao closed his eyes and spoke to Qin Yi, who was watching a period drama in the lobby on the first floor, through their mental connection:
"Brother Yi, why don't you go and greet the survivors we rescued today?"
I have already notified them via the terminal to wait at the training ground.
