Chapter 219
Jun Zishu similarly expressed her frustration with the matter of falling ill.
[I’ve already raised your pain resistance as much as possible, Host.]
The most Little Fairy could do was reduce Jun Zishu’s pain sensitivity by 50%. Jun Zishu would have to endure the remaining 50%.
Alright.
Jun Zishu wasn’t feeling pain because she was injured. Instead, it was because her period had arrived.
The original owner was the one who suffered the worst period pains out of everyone in Room 412. Since Jun Zishu had taken over this body, she naturally had to experience these period pains as well.
These were the worst period pains Jun Zishu had ever suffered across her multiple lives. It still felt incredibly unpleasant even after her pain sensitivity was halved.
To make matters worse, due to their lack of proper blankets and weakened immune system, Jun Zishu caught a cold and a mild fever. Despite it being early spring right now, she felt like she was in the middle of winter.
“What should we do? Her forehead is getting hotter and hotter. We don’t have any medicine,” Liu Manman said, frowning after she felt the temperature of Jun Zishu’s forehead.
“It’s fine. It’s only a small problem,” Jun Zishu said while resting in Ren Nanying’s arms. However, despite her flushed face and sickly pale lips, she wore a very calm expression on her face, behaving as if she wasn’t the one who was ill.
Honestly, Jun Zishu didn’t expect that after breaking through so many worlds, she would eventually succumb to her menstrual cycle.
Unfortunately, this was a problem that all women couldn’t avoid unless they went into menopause.
“It will become a big problem if we leave you like this,” Lin Su said disapprovingly. “Tongtong, you’re a medical student. Can you take a look at her?”
“This is obviously a case of fever caused by a cold. She’ll get better once she takes medicine. If you want me to treat her, I can give her an autopsy after she dies,” Liu Yingtong said, her mouth twitching when she heard Lin Su’s question. She studied forensic science, not family medicine.
“We need to go get medicine from the infirmary,” Ren Nanying said as she lowered her gaze and placed her hand on Jun Zishu’s forehead.
It was dangerous, but she must go.
“That’s right.” Liu Yingtong nodded. Then, she looked at Jun Zishu and asked, “Does your throat hurt?”
“A little.”
“You might have throat inflammation as well,” Liu Yingtong speculated. Then, she looked toward Ren Nanying and asked, “You’re going to go to the infirmary, right?”
Nodding, Ren Nanying asked, “What kind of medicine do I need to retrieve?”
“If you see any flu medicine, take it. It’s usually in the second cabinet. Acetaminophen and compound acetaminophen alkylamine tablets will also do. Her condition isn’t so serious that she needs an IV drip, but you should still try to return with the medicine as quickly as possible. If her condition gets dragged out for too long, she might very well need an IV drip.”
“Okay.”
“Are you going alone, Cousin?” Liu Manman asked worriedly.
“Yes.”
“There must be many monsters inside the infirmary. It won’t be safe for you to go alone. How about I go with you?” Jiang Mubai suggested, his words causing Jun Zishu’s eyes to narrow.
“Are you willing to go with them?” Jun Zishu asked as she looked at Chen Beimo.
Chen Beimo was momentarily stunned. Then, he quickly nodded.
“I don’t need so many people to go with me,” Ren Nanying said as she caressed Jun Zishu’s face and gently set her down on the bed.
“I don’t feel relieved letting you go alone. I don’t feel relieved letting Jiang Mubai go with you, either. Add Chen Beimo into the mix. The two of them are boys, so they should be capable fighters,” Jun Zishu said.
“Why don’t you feel relieved with me going with her? Do you not trust me?” Jiang Mubai bluntly asked, feeling a little confused.
“In a sense, you count as my former love rival,” Jun Zishu answered.
“And you count as my former suitor,” Jiang Mubai retorted.
The atmosphere quickly grew awkward, and Ren Nanying didn’t know what she should say in this situation.
“I’m joking,” Jun Zishu said. She knew that there was zero chance for Jiang Mubai to suddenly undergo a drastic change in personality. There was no way he would do anything to threaten Ren Nanying. Then, she asked Ren Nanying, “There’s some distance between the infirmary and food court, so it will be a difficult journey. Have you been to the infirmary before?”
Jun Zishu sniffled after she finished speaking. At this point, Lin Su had also covered her body with the other quilt.
“I’ve been there. Distance isn’t a problem. We’ll try to return before nightfall,” Ren Nanying said. It was already the afternoon right now. If they couldn’t return before the sky darkened, it’d become significantly more difficult for them to move about.
Afterward, Ren Nanying, Jiang Mubai, and Chen Beimo walked to a corner and began planning their operation.
They had no idea what the situation was like at the infirmary right now, but it wasn’t difficult to imagine that it was incredibly terrible. Thus, Ren Nanying felt that it’d be best if they went there and returned as quickly as possible.
However, the mission this time wouldn’t be the same as the supermarket operation. There were people inside the supermarket, so entering it was a relatively smooth and safe process. The infirmary, though, was a different story.
After discussing their plans, Ren Nanying picked up the empty backpack and walked up to Jun Zishu.
“I’m going. I’ll come back as soon as possible,” Ren Nanying said.
Jun Zishu nodded and hooked a finger at Ren Nanying, indicating her to come closer.
Confused, Ren Nanying leaned forward a little, only for Jun Zishu to hold her face and plant a cooling kiss on her cheek the next moment.
“With this, you won’t get infected. Go ahead,” Jun Zishu said, smiling.
Ren Nanying nodded before planting a kiss on Jun Zishu’s forehead.
Liu Manman: It’s mushy. It’s too mushy.
Xu Qiu: Reality is harsh. It’s too harsh.
Liu Yingtong: ……
Little Fairy quietly watched from the side, and she couldn’t help but hold her blushing cheeks.
Ren Nanying leaped out of the window with the backpack on her back. Then, Chen Beimo and Jiang Mubai quickly followed her.
Once the three were out, Xu Qiu closed the window, leaving only a small gap open.
Jun Zishu’s brain was feeling a little heavy, and she couldn’t help but feel sleepy.
It had already been a long time since Jun Zishu had been sick. She vaguely remembered that the last time she had fallen ill was during her first mission.
“Take a nap, Zishu. You need to rest to recover,” Lin Su said.
Jun Zishu nodded and fell asleep.
…
The next time Jun Zishu woke up was because she heard Liu Manman’s questioning voice coupled with a noisy environment. Frowning, Jun Zishu opened her eyes to look at the situation in front of her.
[Host, eight people just climbed in through the window. After coming in, they promptly began scavenging for food, and they’ve already swept away all of your remaining lunch.]
To avoid wasting the perishable ingredients, Lin Su had made a lot for lunch. Thus, they had a lot of leftovers after lunch.
However, even after finishing the leftovers, the new arrivals still wore hungry looks on their faces.
“That’s enough from you people! What are you making all this noise for?! Do you think you’re robbing a bank?! Do you not know there are zombies outside?!” Liu Manman yelled, finally unable to hold back her anger. Not only did these new arrivals start eating their food without saying a word, but they even kept on going through the refrigerator like a hungry pack of wolves. Because of their reckless behavior, they’ve made a complete mess of the refrigerator and the kitchen counters.
Upon hearing Liu Manman’s words, the new arrivals stopped their actions and glared hatefully at Liu Manman’s group.
Meanwhile, Liu Manman and the others could see that these new arrivals must’ve been starving for several days already. However, that didn’t excuse them for making a mess of the place as soon as they arrived.
Even if Liu Manman knew this was a public space and that everyone could come in, she still couldn’t help but find the actions of these new arrivals upsetting.
“What happened?”
Jun Zishu sat up, her long hair scattered across the sides of her face. Right now, she exuded the air of a sick beauty.
The boys on the other side promptly turned to Jun Zishu, entranced by her beauty.
“Those people just came in here, Goddess. Look at the mess they’ve made. They’ve even eaten all the food Susu made for lunch,” Liu Manman complained. At the same time, she also took a step to her right, blocking the boys’ view of Jun Zishu.
“Sorry. We were just too hungry,” the boy in the lead stood forward and apologized. Several of the other boys behind him also lowered their heads.
“What are you apologizing for, Chen Yang? This place doesn’t belong to them, to begin with. So what if we eat the food here?” someone said in a nonchalant tone. Anger had flared up within him when he arrived in this kitchen and saw how comfortably the girls here lived. After all, their group had been living in fear and hunger these past few days, while these girls had been living here safe and sound with plenty of food to spare.
“If you don’t know how to speak properly, go back to your mother’s stomach and learn how to do so before you open your mouth,” Liu Manman said derisively.
“You fucking… What do you want?”
The boy Liu Manman criticized stepped forward in agitation, but the boy named Chen Yang quickly stopped him.
“Okay, stop arguing. It’s unsightly. This is indeed a public space. If this were private properly, I would’ve already kicked you people out,” Jun Zishu said as she gathered her hair and tied it into a ponytail.
“The ingredients here were purchased by the food court’s staff, so they indeed don’t belong to us. However, they don’t belong to you, either. Not only did you not thank us after eating the food we made, but you are even trying to pick a fight with us now. Why bother coming to university if you don’t even know basic manners? With such a bad temper, even construction sites won’t accept you in the future,” Jun Zishu said in a calm tone, her words full of mockery.
Liu Manman nodded in agreement.
“You!”
The face of the boy Jun Zishu criticized flushed red with anger. However, he eventually chose to hold back his anger and keep quiet considering the current situation.
“Stop arguing. It’s the apocalypse already. It’s already a challenge for everyone to survive, so let’s not start internal disputes again,” Chen Yang said.
“These girls don’t look like they are having a tough time surviving,” the snarky boy commented.
“Zhang Hongji!”
Chen Yang turned around and rebuked the snarky boy named Zhang Hongji. Then, he turned back to Jun Zishu’s group and smiled at them apologetically.
“Which department are you from?” Jun Zishu frankly asked. Though, she couldn’t be bothered to smile at these new arrivals.
“We’re from the Science Department.”
“All of you are?”
“Yes. we were in the same classroom when the zombies appeared.”
“Tidy up the mess you’ve made. We still need to continue living here.”
“Okay.”
Jun Zishu didn’t try to make things difficult for these new arrivals. After telling them to clean up their mess, she simply ignored them.
After tidying up the mess they made, the eight boys from the Science Department sat in another corner of the kitchen, and the atmosphere in the kitchen calmed down again.
When Jun Zishu saw the look of exhaustion on those boys’ faces, she determined that they wouldn’t be a threat. So, she closed her eyes and resumed her rest.
Meanwhile, Liu Manman and the others sat around Jun Zishu, forming a circle around her. Then, they began conversing with each other by typing messages using their phones.
Liu Manman: I don’t like them.
Lin Su: Relax. We’re all schoolmates.
Xu Qiu: The food we have here won’t last long with them here.
Liu Manman: They’re all boys. What should we do if they go crazy?
Lin Su: I don’t think they’ll be that bad.
Xu Qiu: We need to be prepared.
When Liu Yingtong saw the messages on the others’ phones, she lowered her head and pondered for a moment. Then, she grabbed Liu Manman’s phone and typed a message.
Liu Yingtong: I know the structure of the human body. I also know where to stab to avoid creating a fatal wound.
After typing her message, Liu Yingtong took out her scalpel and waved it around. The scalpel was wiped clean, and it could almost serve as a mirror.
The other girls gulped at this sight, and they couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up to Liu Yingtong.
The girl was truly a ruthless person.
