Chapter 115 Facial Nerve Paralysis

"Bang——"

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground successfully woke Shuxin from her light sleep. She opened her eyes alertly, turned on the flashlight at hand, and shone it towards the place where the sound came from.

Shu Xin did not rashly choose to turn on the lights. She set up a protective circle outside the car and the entire yard so that the zombies could not break in.

It could be vaguely seen that there was a person lying on the ground. Shu Xin carefully opened the car door, holding a weapon in one hand and a flashlight in the other, and slowly approached the figure on the ground.

"Why do I feel that this dress looks familiar?"

The closer she got, the more Shu Xin realized that the person's clothes looked familiar to her, and she secretly complained in her heart.

She used a wooden stick to turn the man lying on the ground over. After seeing his appearance clearly, Shu Xin understood why she felt he looked familiar.

Isn’t this the cool and aloof brother Bu Yuanzhou who saved her a few days ago!

How could they get themselves into such a mess after just a few days' separation? Moreover, if she remembered correctly, their destination was City B. Although it was not in the opposite direction of City C, it was definitely not the same direction.

The border of City J, City B and City H should be in front of you. If you continue walking eastward, you will reach City B. If you walk east-southeast, you will enter City H. After passing City H, you will reach City C.

Being able to meet Bu Yuanzhou again here and under such circumstances, it seems that something unexpected must have happened to their team after they separated from me.

Perhaps because Bu Yuanzhou had once helped her, Shu Xin did not feel disgusted or repulsed by him, and did not have as strong a sense of wariness towards him as she did towards other people.

Shuxin took out the medical kit and treated his wounds briefly to prevent him from bleeding to death.

Shu Xin guessed that there was someone chasing Bu Yuanzhou from behind, so she moved the person to the back seat of the car with great effort, drove away from the original location, and headed towards City C.

In order to prevent him from waking up midway and doing something bad to himself, Shu Xin gave him an injection of anesthetic in advance and tied him up tightly with hemp rope to provide double insurance.

“Mmm…! Mmm!”

The first thing Bu Yuanzhou did when he woke up was to observe the situation around him. He found that he was numb all over and had no strength. He was tied to the back seat of a car with tape on his mouth. He felt a chill in his heart.

It seems that he still couldn't escape the pursuit of those people and was caught. I hope that Yu Chengkang, who escaped separately from me, can escape successfully. At least one of them can survive safely.

Bu Yuanzhou stopped struggling and lay on his back in the back seat, staring blankly at the roof of the car, waiting for the people outside to drag him down for trial.

Shuxin, who was burning a fire outside, heard no sound in the car and almost thought she had heard it wrong. When she opened the car door, she saw Bu Yuanzhou staring at the roof of the car expressionlessly. He didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard the sound of the car door opening.

“Pfft. Hahahahahahaha.”

Shu Xin was successfully amused by Bu Yuanzhou's expression and reached out to tear off the tape on Bu Yuanzhou's mouth.

"!!!"

Hearing a girl's voice, Bu Yuanzhou stood up in surprise and looked at Shu Xin with an expression of disbelief.

He was sure that he had never seen the woman in front of him in Bald Brother's territory, and the woman's voice sounded very familiar.

"It's you!"

Thanks to his special ability, he immediately recognized by the voice that the ugly and rustic woman in front of him was Shu Xin, whom they had met briefly a few days ago.

"Hmm? Who is it?"

Bu Yuanzhou recognized her at once. Shu Xin was inexplicably surprised, afraid that he was lying to her. She kept her tone unchanged and looked at him with slightly raised eyebrows.

"Xiao Shu."

"Hey, how did you recognize me? I looked completely different before, didn't I? Is there something special about your ability?"

After confirming that Bu Yuanzhou really knew who she was, Shu Xin was very curious about how he recognized her.

"I recognized him by the sound. It has something to do with my special ability. My special ability is to develop the brain to the extreme."

"The ultimate development of the brain... Is your brain similar to the super brain before the apocalypse?"

"Well, the computing speed and the knowledge storage speed and amount are very close."

"Wow, that's amazing. What did you do before the end of the world? Usually the awakened supernatural powers are somewhat related to what you did before the end of the world."

“I’m doing scientific research.”

"Oh, after all this time you are still a scientist! Your profession has tied me up like this. Oh, I suddenly feel a little guilty~"

One was really curious, and the other felt there was no need to hide it. Shu Xin and Bu Yuanzhou were chatting in surprisingly harmonious harmony.

"What are your plans next?"

"no."

"Why don't you come with me to City C? We can keep each other company on the way."

“…”

"Okay, can you let me go first? My hands are numb from this position."

There was still no expression on Bu Yuanzhou's face.

"No, I can't guarantee that you are not a threat to me. For my own safety and for the two of us to get along harmoniously, I feel more at ease if you stay like this."

“…”

Shuxin didn't mention that the numbness he felt was not because the pressure was applied for too long, but maybe because the anesthetic had not worn off.

She didn't disbelieve what Bu Yuanzhou said, but she didn't believe it completely either. She was not Yan Mo, and she didn't have the ability to see through people's hearts at a glance. It would never do her any harm to be more cautious.

There was a reason why she invited Bu Yuanzhou to go with her. If all the information Bu Yuanzhou just said was true, then if she took Bu Yuanzhou back, it would be equivalent to taking back a scientific researcher with a super brain, which could save them a lot of trouble in the future.

If Bu Yuanzhou lied to her, at most she would not be able to use the things in the space freely on her way back to City C, and bringing an extra person back with her would not cause her any big loss.

Finally, Shu Xin untied Bu Yuanzhou because she found that with Bu Yuanzhou around, they could take turns driving, and they could travel nearly twice as far every day as she did when driving alone.

After getting familiar with Bu Yuanzhou, Shu Xin discovered that his expressionless face was not because he was pretending to be cool, but because he was born with facial nerve paralysis and was unable to make any facial expressions.

In order to avoid looking too weird with no expression, I forced myself to pretend to be a cool guy who doesn't like to talk.

When Shu Xin found out the truth, she almost laughed out loud. If Bu Yuanzhou hadn't threatened to strike, she would have probably laughed for a long time.

When she thought about the fact that a person who looked so aloof actually had a talkative soul underneath his skin, she felt that she might never be able to look directly at Bu Yuanzhou's face again, because she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and laugh out loud.
