When Lin Tantan woke up again, he found himself lying on a soft cushion and covered with a warm quilt. There was a slight smell of a new quilt, but it was not unpleasant.
There was a pillow under her head.
Taking in the surroundings, she saw they were still in the cafeteria. She was lying on a bed made from several dining tables, and Ye Xiao was beside her. He was sitting on a chair, leaning slightly against the table, his eyes closed, and it was unclear whether he was asleep or not. Even when resting, his features were straight, as if he was ready to leap up at any moment to deal with any possible danger.
There were snoring sounds coming from not far away. Turning her head, she saw Mei Bosheng, who was lying on a few tables like her, sleeping soundly.
Lin Tantan quietly lifted the quilt and prepared to get up. Her movements were already gentle enough, but Ye Xiao still opened his eyes immediately.
His eyes were clear, and when he saw Lin Tan talking, he immediately came over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Tan looked left and right, not wanting to say anything, but seeing people looking at him, he whispered, "Toilet."
She was woken up by the urge to pee.
Ye Xiao silently helped her put on her shoes.
There is a toilet on the first floor, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing now.
Lin Tantan struggled for a long time, mainly because one hand was inconvenient. After coming out, she looked at herself in the mirror with a messy hair and a dirty face, and sighed. Does she still have an image?
She turned on the faucet. The blood on her right hand had solidified and was difficult to wash off. She rubbed it for a long time before removing a little. She rubbed it on her clothes and smoothed her hair before walking out.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiao came out from the kitchen with a basin of steaming water: "Come here."
Lin Tantan walked over, and Ye Xiao asked her to sit down. He first examined her left arm, noting that the wound had healed well and the purpura was almost gone. He wrung out the soft cotton cloth in the basin and wiped the surrounding skin. Then he gestured for her to extend her right hand. Lin Tantan hesitantly reached out, but the next moment it was grabbed and placed in the basin, where the blood stains on the back of her hand were scrubbed clean.
Lin Tantan's face flushed red, and he didn't dare to breathe loudly for a moment: "This, this I can do myself."
Ye Xiao said: "You have to let me do something for you. It's just a piece of cake."
Lin Tan paused, glancing at his expression. She felt that he must feel that he owed her a lot and was feeling guilty. She said, "Actually, my hand can grow back in the future. You, you shouldn't feel too burdened."
Ye Xiao was stunned and raised his eyes suddenly: "Really?"
"Yeah." Lin Tan Tan nodded affirmatively. In her previous life, she was able to make disabled patients regain their limbs. Of course, it would be the same for her, although it would take a long time for her to reach that level again.
Ye Xiao felt relieved and laughed cheerfully: "That's good, but you haven't recovered yet, so it's my responsibility to take care of you."
Lin Tan Tan: “…”Okay, as long as you are happy.
After finally washing her hands, the water was not clean anymore. Lin Tantan thought that was the end of the matter, but Ye Xiao went to change the basin of water and a cloth, wrung it out and gave it to her: "Wipe your face."
"...Oh." Lin Tan Tan put the hot towel on her face and all her thoughts disappeared. Could she imagine that one day her idol would wring the towel for her with his own hands?
Finally, after wiping his face, Lin Tantan, feeling much more refreshed, breathed a sigh of relief. However, Ye Xiao took out a comb and asked, "Can I help you comb your hair?"
"I'll do it, I'll do it. I can do this by myself!"
You can comb your hair with one hand!
As a result, he found that his hair was too messy. When he combed it, the ends were tangled tightly. Lin Tantan pulled it several times and almost pulled his hair off, but the tangles became even tighter. Finally, a pair of hands took over the hair comb.
Ye Xiao lowered his eyes and patiently untied her hair.
Lin Tantan's face turned even redder, and he whispered, "I haven't washed my hair in a few days—oh, what day is it today?"
"Number Four, you went to bed at ten in the morning, and it's five now."
Lin Tan Tan almost wanted to cover her face in anger. She had come on the 1st, and she didn't know if this body had been bathed before the 1st. Anyway, she hadn't washed her hair or taken a bath for at least three days. Thinking about the running around in these three days, how much dust had been on her body, and how much sweat she had shed, her hair felt greasy when she touched it, and her body was almost smelly.
The more Lin Tantan thought about it, the more embarrassed he became. His head drooped lower and lower, and he really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Ye Xiao found it a little funny looking at her red ears. He naturally knew why. Little girls all cared about their reputation. However, her expression changed a dozen times in just the time it took her to wash her hands and comb her hair. Her thoughts were as straightforward and simple as before. It seemed that losing a hand really didn't affect her at all.
Ye Xiao didn't know whether to be glad or worried about her personality.
He said, "Yesterday, Bai Cheng and his team cleaned up the area around the office building in the west of the city, and today they cleaned up two more residential buildings. Which floor do you prefer? I'll have them reserve one for you."
"Are there buildings, the kind with complete facilities?"
"The buildings over there are all new, and the occupancy rate isn't high, but they're all fully renovated, though the furniture might not be complete."
"It's good that it's not a mud house. Leave me a room on the lower floor." Lin Tan Tan guessed that the power would go out soon. There was no elevator on the upper floor, so it would be troublesome to go up and down.
When she has her own room, she must take good care of herself!
Seeing her happy, Ye Xiao also smiled. Sure enough, this trick worked. He said, "We will temporarily live in one of the third floors of one of the buildings. I'll reserve a room next door for you. It's closer so it's easier to take care of you."
"Yeah, sure. When are we going back?" Lin Tantan couldn't wait to wash his hair and take a shower.
"It's late today, let's do it tomorrow." Ye Xiao finally finished combing her hair, but he couldn't tie it up, so he simply tied it up with a rubber band, washed his hands, and went to make porridge for her.
Placing the hot porridge in front of her, he said, "There are many mutated birds outside now, and the helicopter can't be used. We should take a car tomorrow. After eating, go back to sleep. We still have a hard trip tomorrow."
"Hmm!" Lin Tantan obediently ate two large bowls of porridge, finally filling her empty stomach. She felt sleepy as soon as she was full. She hadn't slept enough to begin with, having been woken up by the urge to pee, so it was normal to feel sleepy now. She climbed onto the makeshift bed, burrowed into the quilt, and soon fell asleep again.
This night was spent in the sound of Mei Bosheng's snoring. Outside the cafeteria, there seemed to be the sound of birds pecking at the glass. Lin Tan was woken up several times, but she was not worried. She could feel the sound of Ye Xiao walking around her. With him around, she had nothing to fear.
The next day, Lin Tan Tan woke up full of energy. Mei Baisheng, who was like a dead pig, was also woken up. The three of them packed up and a car arrived outside. Yes, this time someone from Bai Cheng's side came to pick them up.
Except for Jiang Xiaotian and Cheng Qinan, who were unable to provide any help due to their fighting strength, the other four all came and behaved very solemnly. They hugged Mei Baisheng excitedly and were happy for their brother's survival.
"I wanted to come yesterday, but the helicopter couldn't fly. The captain said there was nothing for us to do here, so he refused to let us come. Boy, you will surely have good fortune in the future if you survive a disaster!" Zhong Xiong said, patting Mei Baisheng on the shoulder.
"Oh, be gentle, Tan Tan's shoulder was deformed and hasn't fully healed yet!" Mei Baisheng grinned, the smile on his face never stopped, and he almost smiled like a flower.
The four of them came to thank Lin Tan again. They didn't say much, but their sincere gratitude was beyond words.
Lin Tantan was wearing a baseball cap, which Ye Xiao got for her, knowing that she definitely didn't want others to see her hair that hadn't been washed for several days. She was also wearing a relatively large new coat, which Ye Xiao got for her, which perfectly covered her left arm.
She smiled and said, "Since I have this ability, I naturally can't just watch Meimei die."
The four of them looked at her left arm with complicated expressions. It seemed that they all knew about her broken arm. Lin Tan Tan could accept that Ye Xiao took good care of her because of her disability, but she didn't like being stared at with sympathy or guilt.
She smiled easily and said, "Besides, my hand can grow back, so it's not a big deal." Sure enough, after hearing this, their expressions relaxed a little, and they seemed quite interested in the fact that a severed hand could grow back.
Ye Xiao said at this time: "Let's go."
They drove two cars, both of which were off-road vehicles with excellent high-performance chassis. They looked very domineering. It seemed that they not only cleared out two buildings, but also got a lot of good things. Their vehicles were even upgraded to new ones.
With these two cars there, the zombie birds could only end up knocking themselves unconscious on the glass window. The journey back was quite smooth, but Lin Tantan discovered that there were really a lot of zombie birds. They could be seen on the eaves, treetops, and power lines along the way. Some were the size of a palm or larger, and judging from their original form, they should be small birds like sparrows.
The good news is that these aren't all zombie birds; the vast majority are mutant birds. The difference between the two is that the former can infect humans and turn them into zombies, while the latter can't, much like humans with special abilities. While mutant animals don't infect humans, they do feed on each other, posing a significant challenge to human survival.
Before ten o'clock in the morning, they returned to the west of the city.
It has only been three days since I came back, and a lot of changes have occurred here. There are many surveillance cameras set up at a long distance, and many roadblocks have been built to block the zombies from advancing. But within these obstacles is a relatively safe area. The office buildings, the shopping mall building that has been cleared out, and the residential area next to it are all included in this safe area.
However, probably due to the mutation of the birds, there are not many idle people walking around outside.
Bai Cheng and his team have now moved to Building No. 1 in the residential area, which is a few hundred meters away from the office building. It is a 22-story building, but currently only the floors below the eighth are occupied.
"There was a power outage in this area last night, and I guess the water will be out soon," Bai Cheng said as he went up the stairs.
The eight of them chose 301, which is a large apartment with four bedrooms and two living rooms. It is enough for the two of them to live in one room, but it would be inconvenient to add Lin Tantan. After all, there are differences between men and women. But given Lin Tantan's current situation, it would be unreasonable not to take care of her, so she was willing to live in 302, which solved a problem for Bai Cheng.
302 is right next to 301, and it happens to be a small apartment, perfect for one person to live in. Lin Tantan seemed very happy when she arrived at her new home. Bai Cheng had obviously put some thought into it, and the furniture in the house was fully furnished, so she didn't have to worry about anything else.
She had just settled down and persuaded Ye Xiao, who seemed worried about her being alone, to leave when someone knocked on the door. When she opened it, it was Grandma Xu and her nanny.
They were carrying a lot of things, so Lin Tan Tan quickly let them in. Grandma Xu put the things on the sofa and said with a smile, "Didn't we go shopping in that mall yesterday? There's a lot of stuff in there. But Deputy Captain Bai and the others are all men, so let me pick out some nice clothes for you and some daily necessities that girls need. They're all here. Take a look and see if you like them."
