Ji Yinbing’s expression remained calm and indifferent.
She shook her head slightly and said firmly, “I want to go in.”
After obtaining the approval of the soldiers, the two of them entered Hama City without the protection of the soldiers.
The city was lifeless and filled with sorrow.
Ji Yinbing and Zhuang Long walked on the silent street.
Every family had their doors and windows tightly closed. Occasionally, someone would open the window and extend a haggard and sallow face. They stared at the two sudden city breakers with numb eyes.
They had long been forced to accept the truth. They knew that soon, they would end their lives like those dead women.
Zhuang Long felt something and said, “They are people abandoned by this world.”
Ji Yinbing shifted her gaze away from the peeping faces. When she heard Zhuang Long’s words, she said, “That’s why we cami
Yinbing leaned closer to Zhuang Long and said in a low voice, “We didn’t abandon them.”
These words were a little emotional.
Zhuang Long touched his nose. A smooth-tongued man could not stand others praising him in all seriousness.
He said, “You make it sound like we’re especially high and mighty like God.”
Ji Yinbing shrugged. “If God is a woman, then the world will go crazy.”
The two of them teased the atmosphere and gradually entered the city center.
“Let’s stay at this hotel tonight.”
In front of them was an eight-story building.
Hama City was not rich to begin with. The best hotel in the city was not considered luxurious either. The city was empty, and the hotel door was wide open. There were no guests. The two of them did not pay their food and accommodation fees. They each chose a clean house to stay in.
At night, they ate some canned food and left the hotel together.
They had to hurry and collect the blood of the infected.
This time, they were very lucky to meet a 13-year-old girl. The little girl was almost unable to hold on anymore. She sat on the lawn outside her house and looked up at Ji Yinbing and Zhuang Long without saying anything. Ji Yinbing was wearing a Isolation uniform. She looked at the little girl’s despairing
and numb eyes and could not bear to see her like this.
She opened the bag on her back and found two pieces of chocolate. She handed them to the girl.
The girl stared at the chocolate and muttered to herself for a long time before reaching out a hand with long sores to take the chocolate. She peeled a piece and ate half of it before suddenly crying, Ji Yinbing was a little helpless. Zhuang Long glanced at Ji Yinbing and walked to a quiet place.
Ji Yinbing squatted down in front of the girl.
“You’re crying, Is it very painful?” Ji Yinbing tried her best to speak English slowly, trying to make the girl hear her clearly.
The girl seemed to understand. She seemed to be calling out for her father.
Ji Yinbing thought that she was probably missing her father.
Ji Yinbing sighed and sat down beside the girl. After the girl finished her chocolate, she spoke in the language of Country X while waving her hands, wanting to express her meaning. Ji Yinbing stared at her actions for a long time. In the end, she probed, “You’re asking, what are we doing here?”
The girl did not know if Ji Yinbing understood her words. She nodded and did not shake her head.
Ji Yinbing said, “Doctor.” She pointed at herself and said slowly, “‘m a doctor.” Seeing that the girl did not understand, she took out a syringe from her bag. She made a drawing of blood on her arm. She wanted to tell the girl that she was a doctor.
However, the girl misunderstood her.
The girl took the initiative to hand her hand to Ji Yinbing, She pulled up her sleeves and said something Ji Yinbing did not understand.
Although she did not understand, Ji Yinbing guessed the girl’s meaning.
She was asking him to draw her blood.

Ji Yinbing needed the girl’s blood. In fact, the more blood samples she collected, the more beneficial it was for her research. She took a tube of the girl’s blood and said, “I—need—more.”
‘The girl tilted her head and looked at her.
Ji Yinbing held the needle to draw blood and patiently compared it a few times. The girl finally understood. She suddenly reached out and pointed at a western-style building in the distance.
“Is there someone inside?” Ji Yinbing asked.
The girl understood what she meant and nodded.
After bidding farewell to the girl, Ji Yinbing and Zhuang Long went to the western three-story building.
They rang the doorbell politely. In a moment, a woman in her forties walked out. She was dressed like a servant. The woman sized them up and asked for their identities in pure American English.
Ji Yinbing explained her identity to Zhuang Long.
The woman’s eyes lit up when she heard that they were virologists.
She warmly invited the two of them into the house.
After entering the house, the woman said, “I’m not infected yet, but my Miss is infected. In order not to infect me, she locked herself upstairs.” The woman looked upstairs with a painful expression. “We’re not from America X, we’re from America A. You know, there are many homeless orphans here. Miss
wanted to establish an orphanage here, so she decided to come and inspect it personally.”
The woman lowered her head and said in a sad tone, “Who knew that Miss’s luck was so bad…”
Ji Yinbing admired this lady and pitied her.
She was here to do good, but.
“We want to take a tube of her blood. Do you think it’s convenient?”
The woman hesitated before nodding.
“Tl go tell Miss.”
‘The woman went upstairs to ask the lady for her opinion. Zhuang Long and Ji Yinbing were waiting downstairs.
Within a few minutes, the woman came downstairs. She said, “Miss agreed.”
“Okay.”
The two of them followed the woman upstairs. Along the way, the woman was talking to the two of them. “Miss has been infected with the virus for two days. Yesterday, her body started to have a high fever, and today, she has sores on her face. Miss loves to look beautiful, so when you see Miss later,
please don’t take offense.”
“Tunderstand.”
Pushing open the door, Ji Yinbing and Zhuang Long entered one after another.
On the big round bed lay a thin girl. She was covered in a white silk blanket, and her long golden hair was draped over the pillow. As the woman had said, she loved beauty. She had put a towel over her face to cover the boils on her face.
Only her light blue eyes were revealed.
The girl should be very young. Although her skin looked dark and yellow from the torture of the virus, there were no wrinkles around the girl’s eyes.
Her left arm was placed outside the blanket. Her sleeves were rolled up to her arm, revealing a slender arm.
Zhuang Long placed his bag by the bed. He looked down at the girl and said in a gentle voice, “Tl draw a tube of your blood. Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt very much.”
The girl looked at him quietly.
After a moment, she nodded. “Okay.”
Zhuang Long sat down. Just as he removed the bag of disposable blood needles, he saw the girl frown.
He:”..”
She had yet to start drawing blood and the needle had yet to stab into her body when she started to be afraid…
