Wear a Thriller To Protect the Boss - Chapter 22
Convenience stores are no more than 30 square meters at best, separated by shelves, and the space is small.
This also means that a large number of zombies suddenly rushed in, and there is no way to avoid it.
Huo Yinting took a huge risk, traversed two shelves in a row, shot frantically, and finally covered Pei Yi and Bai Yu and returned to the place.
Pei Yi took the fruit knife thrown by Song Xing and struck the zombie who wanted to attack Huo Yinting with a backhand knife. The two kicked the last zombie down the steps, locked the door of the convenience store tightly again, and poured the newspaper into water. Stuffed the glass on the door to isolate the zombie from sight.
After doing all this, Pei Yi finally knelt on the ground with his feet softly. He firmly covered the wound of his right wrist, blood still pouring from his fingers, dyed his sleeves, and gathered on the ground.
Huo Yinting squeezed his hand tightly, her mind was blank at that moment, and she completely lost the ability to think calmly.
She even thought of it for the first time, not that the task given by the system would fail, nor that she might not be able to return to the real world.
All she thought was that Pei Yi could not die.
She must not let him die.
“Song Xing! Give me the backpack!”
Song Xing finally awoke from the panic that was at a loss, and hurriedly threw his backpack at her: “Here!”
When he left the internal medicine clinic not long ago, he conveniently filled the bag with a few rolls of gauze, antiseptic alcohol, and trauma syrup, just for emergencies, who knew it would really come in handy.
More importantly, his bag still contained the box of fake medicine that he had taken away from Mei Mei’s house.
That kind of medicine can’t save lives, it can only temporarily suppress the spread of the virus. Mei Mei has tried it personally, and it can last about 24 hours.
After 24 hours, if he still fails to find a solution, Pei Yi will mutate.
Huo Yinting took out a needle of medicine and slowly injected it into Pei Yi’s vein. During this process, her hand was shaking uncontrollably.
Pei Yi was silent for a while, and calmly covered the back of her hand with the uninjured hand, helping her to stabilize the needle.
The two looked at each other, his face was pale, but those nice eyes were still bright and sharp, as usual.
He whispered: “It’s okay, I’m not still alive.”
“Alive?” She looked at him and laughed at herself, but her eyes were red unconsciously, “Who knows if I will kill you by myself at this time tomorrow?”
Pei Yi held her hand and still didn’t let go, a person who had always been cold and indifferent, at this time, his eyes suddenly became somewhat helpless and tender.
“If it is unavoidable to die, dying under your gun is the best ending.”
As soon as this remark came out, even Song Xing and Zhou Tu behind him couldn’t help but feel sad, and both turned away.
Bai Yu seemed to have woken up from the state of collapse just now. She witnessed this scene in a daze, and for a long time, she trembled.
“Pei Yi, I’m sorry, I…”
Before he finished speaking, Huo Yinting stood up suddenly and slapped it without hesitation. With ten percent of the force, Bai Yu hit the shelf with a straight fan, his forehead smashed, and his face was bleeding.
Huo Yinting drained the medicine in a syringe. She pushed away Zhou Tu that she was trying to block, and grabbed Bai Yu from the ground with her collar.
“Do you think I endured you for so long because I didn’t dare to kill you?” She curled her lips, the smile looked cold and fierce, and Guan Zhi taught people to feel cold. “I tell you, if Pei Yi is dead , You have to bury him.”
She raised her hand decisively and forced the sharp needle into the back of Bai Yu’s hand.
“Sorry for these three words, you have to use practical actions.”
The needle was directly folded in Bai Yu’s bones, blood flowed across, painful, Bai Yu fell back, screaming heartbreakingly.
Huo Yinting threw the needle away and pushed her into Zhou Tu’s arms.
Zhou Tu caught Bai Yu and met Huo Yinting’s glimpse of eyes, somehow he shuddered, and couldn’t help taking a step back.
The fear at that moment was almost instinctive.
Pei Yi got up and pulled Huo Yinting to his side. He sighed and persuaded her soothingly.
“Forget it, why bother.”
“Anyway, I’m not a good person, and I take everything for granted.” Huo Yinting said coldly, “You care about the Bai family’s kindness, and you have to fulfill your promise to protect her. This is your business. But if you are gone, don’t kill. She is my business.”
Pei Yi looked down at the wound on his wrist, where blood still oozes out, slowly soaking with gauze.
He suddenly recalled a lot of past events. Indeed, without the support of Bai Yu’s parents, he would definitely not be able to go to the police academy, nor would he be able to go today.
He had been taken care of by them for many years, and he promised them that he would always treat Bai Yu well.
He has never broken his promise in these years, but if he wants to come, no matter how long the road is, there should be no end; all tolerance and accommodation should not be endless.
“Xiao Yu.” He didn’t look up at Bai Yu, but his tone was indifferent, as if he was talking about a very common thing, “Perhaps in your heart, you always think that I haven’t done enough, but I can only do it. Here it is.”
“What I owe to the Bai family is paid off by you. From now on, even if you hate me, it has nothing to do with me.”
Bai Yu clutched his bleeding hand and collapsed in Zhou Tu’s arms, shaking with tears.
The room was silent for a while.
Huo Yinting sat near the door and lit a cigarette for herself. In the fugitive smoke, she lowered her head, and her confused mind finally calmed down a bit.
She suddenly remembered some information that might be forgotten by herself.
“Pei Yi.” She asked him in a deep voice, “In the operating room, what did Wu Jun and Jackie do to Mr. Jiang?”
She vaguely remembered that when she broke into the operating room, she caught a glimpse of two columns of green data displayed on the screen of the instrument.
Pei Yi replied: “They injected the virus into Mr. Jiang’s body and extracted a certain component from Mr. Jiang’s blood. It seems…”
“What does it seem?”
“It seems that it succeeded.”
At that time, Wu Jun did tell Jackie clearly that the value was within the predetermined range and it was successful.
Jiang Bin died of the virus, but it did not mutate. His blood contained the last ingredient of the medicine Wu Jun needed.
Maybe a lot of things are destined in the dark, as if Jiang Bin resolutely chose to take the experiment in place of Pei Yi, and in the end it was his death that made the potion take shape, giving Pei Yi a trace of life.
Huo Yinting pinched out the cigarette butt, his eyes flashed and became firm and resolute.
“I want to go back to Changwu Hospital.”
In that operating room, there is probably still the medicine made by Wu Jun and Jackie, and she will try it whether or not she is present.
Pei Yi looked stern, and decisively refused: “No, Changwu Hospital has been occupied by zombies. If you go, it means you will die.”
“I die or you die, is there any difference?” Huo Yinting smiled casually, “If you don’t worry, you can go with me.”
She now fully understands the meaning of breaking the boat.
But she was not afraid, and she didn’t care.
Pei Yi looked into her eyes for a long time, only to feel that there was never a moment in his life, like this moment, that made him feel unspeakably sour and warm.
He seemed a little confused and didn’t know where to ask.
How can he, let her save her life, just to survive?
“You have to understand, it’s not worth it at all.”
“In my life creed, there is never worthy or unworthy, only willingness or unwillingness.”
Pei Yi was stunned for a while.
Huo Yinting didn’t give him another opportunity to object, she turned around and told Song Xing: “As soon as we go out, you will immediately lock the door, hide here, don’t run around.”
Song Xing nodded obediently: “Okay.”
“But if the two of us haven’t returned before twelve o’clock tonight, don’t wait any longer and find your way out.”
“…Okay.” Song Xing was almost crying, but he finally resisted not staying and agreed with difficulty, “But Miss Huo, Mr. Pei, I hope you can… be able to come back alive.”
“I will try my best.” Huo Yinting turned to look at Pei Yi, “Go.”
Only one word, with incomparable determination.
She firmly believes that she will not lose here.
Taking advantage of the darkening of the night, Huo Yinting and Pei Yi left the convenience store, and took advantage of the cover of the trees on both sides of the street to move cautiously in the direction of Changwu Hospital.
The gate of Changwu Hospital was still closed tightly. As long as it was opened, they didn’t know how many zombies would rush out, so the two decided to climb over the wall.
Climbing a tree over a wall was something Huo Yinting was already familiar with when he was a child, and even though Pei Yi injured his right hand, it did not affect his agile actions in the slightest.
He first jumped to the ground from the top of the wall, and then steadily caught her who had jumped down, without making a sound.
Huo Yinting glanced at the gate, where there was a large pool of blood and broken flesh skeletons, 80% of which was left after Zhang Ting was eaten by zombies.
She paused, then calmly turned away from her eyes.
“Let’s go to the fourth floor.”
“good.”
The two gently walked around the zombies wandering in the courtyard, entered the hall through the small door on the other side of the hospital, passed the pharmacy and the registration office, and cautiously touched the stairs.
The lights on the second floor are much brighter than the lobby on the first floor. If you are not careful, you will be spotted by the zombies.
But it is not advisable to cut off the electric switch, after all, they do not know enough about the internal topography of the hospital.
Huo Yinting proposed to take a safe passage and go straight to the fourth floor. Everything was going well until the stairs on the third floor when the two ran into a single mercenary zombie head-on.
In such an environment, shooting will undoubtedly attract more zombies. Huo Yinting made a decisive action and kicked the zombies against the wall with a sharp kick. Pei Yi immediately drew forward and dropped the knife into the opponent’s eyebrows.
Due to the excessive movement, the wound opened again, severe pain struck, cold sweat ran down, and he gritted his teeth and pressed his wrist forcefully.
Huo Yinting subconsciously supported him, and asked anxiously, “Is it all right?”
“It’s okay.” He shook his head, calmed down for a while, leaned over and picked up the gun dropped by the mercenary, opened the magazine to check, “There are still bullets.”
In such places, hot weapons are far more useful than cold weapons.
“Then let’s go.”
The two continued walking along the stairs, and finally stopped at the passage on the fourth floor. Huo Yinting reached out and tentatively pushed the door open.
Unexpectedly, when she stepped onto the corridor, she turned her head and met a certain zombie at the end of the corridor.
The zombie found the target and roared loudly. At the same time, all the zombies nearby received the signal and gathered around here.
He and her were trapped in a dangerous circle.
The author has something to say: After writing so much, these two chapters finally decided to make sugar, and let Xiaohuo and Pei Yi get the hang of them.
And some readers may feel that Xiao Huo’s tolerance for Bai Yu is too high. In fact, Xiao Huo has just gone through and needs to grow up, so it is inevitable that he will be restrained everywhere. And Xiaohuo really takes care of Pei Yi’s feelings, so he chooses not to care about it in many cases, which means…
In the next few worlds, you will see Xiaohuo getting more and more ruthless.
