In the apocalypse, you start with two knives, and all your equipment depends on drops.

Chapter 32 Shi Ying



Chapter 32 Shi Ying

After Yu Yao followed Sang Yi to collect the medicines and equipment that had been sorted out from the first floor, she returned.

They noticed that Luo Mei had become less talkative, and several times she seemed about to say something but then stopped.

The expressions of the others also showed some unease.

Yu Yao knew the reason without even thinking.

However, she didn't ask any further questions.

Joining the team is just a temporary measure for leveling up quickly; it's not like I'm selling myself to them.

What do those people think of her?

She doesn't care.

Then, Sang Yi gave the order, and everyone headed upstairs.

......

Because most of the zombies in the hospital were controlled by psycho-zombies and surrounded on the first floor, there weren't as many zombies on the other floors.

With Chi Heng and a few others around, the cleanup went much faster.

Yu Yao followed behind, responsible for collecting the supplies that had been cleared out.

Finally, as dusk approached, we reached the seventeenth floor.

In the research institute on the seventeenth floor, the group finally saw the so-called survivors.

There were men and women, young and old, a total of thirteen people.

When Luo Mei saw the woman in the lead, a flash of murderous intent crossed her eyes.

It seems that she was the woman who pushed Luo Mei towards the zombies, Shi Ying.

Shi Ying has a gentle and charming appearance and a soft voice. She introduced herself to everyone in a graceful and generous manner.

Then she smiled and thanked everyone for rescuing them.

"When we heard the commotion outside, we couldn't believe it was really the army coming to our rescue. We are so grateful to you."

Her dignified and generous demeanor, coupled with her eyes full of gratitude, won the favor of many people.

Even Sang Yi smiled after confirming that she was his target.

Yu Yao looked at her, then at the huge...red dot on the map that belonged to her, and fell silent.

After learning of Sang Yi's purpose, Shi Ying generously offered to take them to collect equipment and materials.

When she saw Luo Mei next to Yu Yao, she appropriately showed a hint of surprise and a hint of joy.

"Miss Li, it's so good that you're alright."

Luo Mei and her team never use their real names when accepting missions; instead, they use aliases or code names.

Chi Heng's code name is "C".

Dongfang Jin's code name is "Dongfang".

Qi Xian is an "old gun".

Luo Pingjing is the "Demon King".

Jiang Yi used the alias "Xia Yu".

Luo Mei also used a code name, "Miss Li".

Because in her memory, her mother's surname was Li.

Watching Shi Ying's constantly changing expressions, Luo Mei leaned lazily against the wall with her arms crossed and gave a mocking smile.

"Yes, you're disappointed, aren't you? I'm still alive."

Shi Ying was taken aback, her watery eyes filled with innocence and helplessness.

"How could you say that? It was indeed my fault for hurting you back then, but I really didn't mean to. You have to believe me, you're my savior!"

The strange atmosphere between Shi Ying and Luo Mei made Sang Yi and the others look on with surprise and doubt.

They guessed that Luo Mei and the target of their mission might have some past conflict.

But I never expected that we would meet like this, as if we were enemies!

"Miss Luo, do you really know Dr. Shi?" Sang Yi couldn't help but ask.

Luo Mei nodded.

"Of course I recognize her. In fact, I should thank her. If she hadn't pushed me into the zombie world, I might not have been able to awaken my superpowers."

As she spoke, she looked at Shi Ying and smiled slightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.

She tilted her head with a smile, looking both playful and dangerous.

"Don't you think so, Dr. Shi?"

Shi Ying's pupils trembled.

Luo Pingjing's face turned ashen the moment he heard that Luo Mei had been pushed toward the zombies by Shi Ying.

Without saying a word, he drew his gun and pointed it at Shi Ying's head.

Looking at Shi Ying's pale face, Luo Pingjing gritted his teeth and asked dangerously, word by word, "You, pushed, my, sister, sister?"

"Mr. Luo!" Sang Yi quickly stepped forward to stop Luo Pingjing.

Luo Mei paused slightly, then placed her hand on Luo Pingjing's wrist and said, "Brother, the bigger picture is more important."

"Mei Mei?" Luo Pingjing looked down at Luo Mei in confusion, but his eyelashes twitched when he met Luo Mei's eyes, which were filled with murderous intent.

He finally put down his gun.

But the look in his eyes as he gazed at Shi Ying still carried a chilling killing intent.

Shi Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief and apologized softly with deep remorse.

“Ms. Li, I sincerely apologize for what happened back then. But please believe me, I really didn’t push you on purpose. It was too chaotic at the time, and I don’t know how I bumped into you. I’m willing to compensate you. If you still don’t forgive me, you can push me once, and I definitely won’t resist.”

Her words were sincere and touching, and many people secretly praised her for being courageous and responsible.

Some people even felt dissatisfied with Luo Mei, thinking that she was making a mountain out of a molehill and being unreasonable.

A young man in his twenties among the survivors, seeing this, expressed his dissatisfaction.

"You're fine, so why are you holding onto the past? Besides, didn't you awaken your superpowers too? If it weren't for Sister Shi Ying, you might not have awakened them yet."

Shi Ying quickly stopped him, "Xiao Yu, don't talk to Miss Li like that!"

The boy named Xiaoyu glanced at Luo Mei and snorted coldly, then said to Shi Ying, "Sis! She's just taking advantage of your kindness and vulnerability to manipulate you. Don't fall into her trap!"

“Miss Li is not that kind of person!” Shi Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yu disapprovingly.

"Sister Shi Ying!" Xiao Yu looked at Shi Ying with disappointment, and his gaze toward Luo Mei became increasingly disgusted.

"Didn't you hear what Commander Sang called her? Miss Li? She doesn't even dare to say her real name, what kind of person could she be!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Ying was taken aback and weakly explained on Luo Mei's behalf: "This... Miss Li must have her reasons for not saying."

......

What a big show.

Yu Yao raised an eyebrow, watching with great interest.

Luo Mei narrowed her eyes slightly, couldn't help but click her tongue, and said to Xiao Yu, "I remember you, Lin Chaoyu, right?"

Lin Chaoyu raised his chin, his arrogance tinged with smugness, and said something pointed: "I will not change my name or surname!"

Luo Mei sneered, "Isn't that a bit much? I think you're the one who needs to change your name more. How about 'The Ultimate Simp for Dr. Shi'? Oh dear! Speaking of which, why haven't you awakened your superpowers yet? How can that be? How can you protect your goddess without superpowers? Or... should I help you out?"

As she spoke, she drew a large knife and placed it against Lin Chaoyu's shoulder.

The sharp blade was less than a millimeter from his neck.

"If you make a cut on yourself and smear some zombie blood on it, you might awaken superpowers. Want to give it a try?"

The heavy broadsword pressed down on his shoulder, almost causing Lin Chaoyu's knees to buckle.

Feeling the chill on his neck, Lin Chaoyu's pupils contracted.

He instinctively took two steps back to dodge Luo Mei's knife, and cursed, "You crazy woman, how dare you!"

This insult caused Luo Pingjing to raise his gun again, pointing it at his head.

"Who are you scolding?"

Seeing this, Sang Yi, feeling a headache coming on, once again spoke up to stop Luo Pingjing.

"Mr. Luo, don't be impulsive."

Luo Pingjing shifted his gaze to Sang Yi, his expression chillingly cold.

"Commander Sang, do you have family? If it were your family member being pushed into a pile of zombies, would you calmly tell yourself not to act impulsively?"

Sang Yi was taken aback, his eyes flickering slightly.

How can it be?

He would tear the other person apart without hesitation!

However, different positions lead to different situations, and his current task is to protect these people.

So after struggling for a moment, he finally said it!

“I know that Dr. Shi has made a mistake and you harbor resentment. So, I will take the liberty of giving all of Dr. Shi’s supplies to Miss Luo and paying you an extra half of the compensation, just asking for Miss Luo’s forgiveness. What do you say?”

After hearing this, Luo Mei raised her eyebrows slightly and continued to state her conditions: "I have one more condition."

"You said."

"Let them... stay away from me!"

"......rest assured."

After Luo Mei finished speaking, she pulled Luo Pingjing back from his rage.

Chi Heng and the others turned and left the research institute, going to a clean office on the sixteenth floor to rest temporarily.

Of course, she couldn't do anything to Shi Ying in front of everyone.

But who can say what the future holds?

......

Yu Yao, on the other hand, went with Sang Yi and Shi Ying.

They collected all the existing supplies, medical and experimental equipment, data, and samples from the research institute.

Then they went downstairs and found the office where Luo Mei and the others were staying.
