"Every time that Kaizi brings people here and sees me like this, they will verbally insult my parents and ask for points. If they don't give them, they will beat us. The wound on Dad's left cheek hasn't healed yet. It's all because of me that they are dragged down." Jiang Wanning cried more and more sadly, as if she wanted to tell her sister all the grievances in her dream.
The people in the tent were also paying attention to what was happening on Chen Wan's side. Two people who were originally lying down to rest left the tent halfway, and some returned to the tent one after another, not understanding what was happening on Jiang Wanning's side.
Jiang Yanxin hugged her sister. On the way here, she thought about the hardships her sister and her friends would suffer, and even made plans for not being able to find anyone. But she didn't expect that after seeing her sister like this, she still felt heartbroken as if it was being stabbed by a knife.
When Chen Wan and the others heard what happened to Jiang Wanning, they clenched their fists, especially Qin Ke. Such scenes always reminded her of what happened to her and Yanyan. Anyone who wants to force others to submit is not worthy of being called a human being, they are just beasts.
Seeing that Jiang Wanning was still a little dazed, Chen Wan leaned over and touched Jiang Wanning's forehead, and felt it was burning hot.
Chen Wan quickly took off the two backpacks on her back. Her own backpack contained some basic medicine, including antipyretics. Chen Wan found the pills, gently patted Jiang Yanxin on the back, and said softly, "Yanxin? Wan Ning has a fever. She's not in good condition. Let her take the medicine first. If the fever develops other diseases, it will be troublesome."
After all, there are many people who have damaged their ears and brains due to high fever.
"Oh, yes, Wan Ning, listen to your sister and take the medicine first." Jiang Yanxin said as she pushed the person in her arms a little further away.
Chen Wan had already prepared the pills and water and handed them over.
Jiang Wanning sniffed, looked at Chen Wan, and spoke with a somewhat strained smile, tears welling in her eyes, "This must be a dream. You're both about to get divorced, how could you still be together? This dream is too real. I need to take medicine."
Jiang Wanning was so feverish that she couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality, and she started talking nonsense.
"Okay, whether it's a dream or not, take the medicine first. Be obedient." Jiang Yanxin handed the medicine to Jiang Wanning.
Jiang Wanning took the medicine obediently in her hand. She held the pill in her mouth and did not take the mineral water from Jiang Yanxin's hand. Her brows were furrowed with bitterness. After a long time, she took the water and drank a few sips, then swallowed the antipyretic pill.
She looked at Jiang Yanxin a little aggrieved, "Sister, why did you drink the medicine in your dream?
Is it all bitter? This dream is too real. But okay, let me take a good look at you before I leave."
After Jiang Wanning finished speaking, she hugged Jiang Yanxin and started crying again.
Jiang Yanxin comforted her for a long time, and since Jiang Wanning was weak to begin with, she soon fell asleep.
Chen Wan pulled two men's coats from his backpack and covered Jiang Wanning with them. He leaned over to help Jiang Yanxin wipe the tears from her face with a tissue, coaxing her softly, "Don't cry, Wanning is fine. We're not too late. Let her have a good sleep and the fever will go away after a few sweats. As for the allergies, I'll go out and see if I can exchange the points for allergy medicine. Oh, and we have to keep an eye on her this time. We can't let her eat beef jerky anymore."
Jiang Yanxin leaned softly on Chen Wan's shoulder, letting Chen Wan wipe the tears from her face.
Qin Ke and Yiyi also put clothes under them and sat in the tent.
There was a growing buzz of discussion in the tent. The grandmother sleeping in the middle saw that they were truly a family. She glanced at Chen Wan and the others, wanting to say something, but then she said, "Girls, I think you should leave the base. It's not peaceful here."
Chen Wan glanced at the old man and thanked him, "Thank you for reminding me. We'll leave once we find my parents. Do you know where they work?"
Chen Wan thought that the most important thing was to find the person quickly.
"Hey, there is no fixed place for transporting goods. The place to wash clothes is inside the base, near the river. I think you should wait here. It's getting late, and they should be back soon." The old man reminded.
"Okay, we'll wait here for a while." Chen Wan hurriedly thanked him.
Yiyi handed the baby in her arms to Qin Ke, smiled at Chen Wan and said, "I'm going to exchange the allergy medicine. You guys stay here and keep watch."
Chen Wan nodded. She was worried about leaving here to exchange for allergy medicine. Among them, apart from herself, the strongest one was of course the system of the same level as the RV. After all, the zombies were only level 1, while the system was already level 3. Chen Wan hadn't even seen Yiyi take action.
"Yiyi, be careful." Chen Wan still reminded her.
Yiyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I finally get to talk more, how could anything go wrong?"
After Yiyi left, the tent became quiet again for a moment, and then whispered discussions began again.
"Hey, Jiang Wanning has offended Kaizi and the others, how dare these people come here to seek death? And they are all so beautiful, aren't they sitting ducks?" A short-haired woman
Alpha and his companions were whispering.
"I heard that some very vicious women came to the base today. They are tall and strong, each about 1.8 meters tall, with muscles all over their bodies. They took out all of Erhu's men. It shouldn't be them, right?" Another bald male alpha took over.
"Nonsense, look at how frail they are. Which one of them is 1.8 meters tall? Those two alphas are about the same height as me, around 1.71 cm. How could it be them?" The short-haired female alpha immediately denied it.
"They are in danger then. There are seven of Kaizi and his group, and they have the big boss from Area A behind them." A beta with a crew cut whispered.
"Yeah, Kaizi just relies on the support of the big boss. Hey, I heard that he specifically gives the new prey to the man in Area A, and none of the men and women he took to Area A can come back alive." The short-haired woman A lowered her voice so low that only they could hear it.
"I'm going to be unlucky again. When will this end? I thought I could live a stable life as before after arriving at the base." The bald man continued.
"But these have nothing to do with us. We don't look outstanding. We can't be found even if we are thrown into a crowd. As long as we don't cause trouble, staying in the base is still much better than being outside. At least we don't have to worry about zombies anymore." Short-haired girl A sighed, and even felt fortunate that she was ordinary-looking. In such a world, being good-looking is a kind of original sin.
Chen Wan and the others rested there, waiting for Yiyi to come back. Jiang Yanxin would occasionally use a short-sleeved shirt as a towel, wet it with water, and wipe the sides of Jiang Wanning's face.
Chen Wan was also watching from the side. At this moment, she didn't know the power of "three people make a tiger". What happened in the morning spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and spread throughout the base. By the afternoon, it had become what the short-haired female alpha had just said, saying that Chen Wan and the others were all over 1.8 meters tall, with muscles all over their bodies, and could knock people away with one punch. Even the cubs were said to be extremely strong, with muscles all over their small bodies, and a small punch from them would not be enough for an adult to withstand. However, such an outrageous rumor actually had people believing it.
Because compared to the version that four thin women took care of Erhu and the others, this version is obviously easier to accept. However, no matter what, Chen Wan doesn't care how it is spread. She just wants to find the people, rest up, and leave here as soon as possible.
On the other side, Yiyi went out with points in her trouser pocket and asked a random female alpha for directions: "Miss, can you tell me how to get to the place where I can redeem medicine?"
The one with long hair in a ponytail
The female alpha didn't expect to meet such a good-looking person talking to her, and immediately replied with a bit of a stammer: "Go straight from here, go straight to the left in the first aisle, it's on the first floor of the building."
Yiyi smiled at her: "Okay, thank you."
The woman obviously didn't expect that Yi Yi was just asking for directions. She had been thinking about it for a long time and thought that she had a romantic encounter. It turned out that she was overthinking it. She looked at Yi Yi who was walking towards the exchange point and felt a little worried. There were all kinds of people in the base, and all the women and male Omegas with a little bit of looks that she knew had a bad ending.
Yiyi didn't know that others had thought so much. Although she was a bionic person, she didn't like this depressing place. If her host wasn't there, she would definitely not come here. After all, sometimes humans are more malicious towards their own people than zombies.
When Yiyi arrived at the exchange point, she found that there were several men following her, both alphas and betas, who obviously had bad intentions.
The clerks at the exchange point were all alphas. When they saw Yiyi dare to come here alone to exchange things, they were also shocked. A male alpha glanced outside and mechanically asked, "What do you want to exchange?"
"How many points do I need to exchange for a box of medicine for allergies?" Yiyi didn't care about the staff's indifference and asked with a smile. After all, a social animal doing this job every day must have been tired of it a long time ago, just like she was frustrated because she couldn't get out of the system.
The male alpha glanced at her and spoke emotionlessly like a robot, "A box of loratadine costs 10 points."
"Okay." Yiyi handed the man a 10-point coupon, and the man took out the medicine and handed it to Yiyi.
At material exchange points like theirs, you have to collect points first before you get anything. After all, there are too many unreliable things in the base. Of course, robbing an exchange point is a serious crime, and the person will be imprisoned in a special prison in the base.
Yiyi took the medicine and was about to leave when the man, while sorting out the goods at hand, whispered in a low voice, his voice still like a machine: "It's best to wait for your family or friends to come pick you up. Don't look back, you must be being watched."
There are too many cases like this where people get targeted when they come here alone to buy things, especially since Yiyi is so beautiful.
The staff working here see many robberies every day. Some brave ones start the fight at the door, while others rob on the road. Therefore, over time, those who come here to exchange supplies are either small groups or a few people from home, and very few people dare to come here to exchange things on their own.
Yiyi chuckled, shook the medicine box in her hand, and said to the man as she walked out: "Thank you, it's okay."
Then, he walked straight out as if he didn't see the five people at the door.
