Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Still an Acquaintance
"There’s no way you didn’t collect *any* medicine on your way here, right?"
Song You’ai stared at the woman as if she’d just seen the most bizarre thing in her life. She almost laughed in exasperation at her entitled tone!
’Is there something wrong with her head?’
’They were complete strangers, yet the moment she opened her mouth, she was demanding medicine with such entitlement?’
"We really didn’t have time to collect any medicine," Song You’ai snapped.
"Impossible." The short-haired woman’s expression turned angry. "How can you be like this? You won’t even do a small favor? That’s outrageous!"
Something clicked in Xie Ning’s mind.
’Xu Yu!’
’This woman... she was actually Xu Yu from the Swift Leopard Team!’
She remembered meeting this Xu Yu from the Swift Leopard Team for the first time in her past life, a year into the apocalypse, while on a mission for the base.
Xie Ning recalled hearing someone mention that this Xu Yu had been a teacher before the apocalypse.
’So she was a teacher at Su City Second Middle School?’
’I’ve actually run into this one-of-a-kind nutjob, Xu Yu, a whole year early?’
She still remembered Xu Yu’s classic lines crystal clear.
’You won’t even do a small favor?’
’What you’re doing is outrageous!’
’If it were me, I would’ve done it without hesitation!’
To call Xu Yu a Holy Mother wasn’t quite accurate.
Xu Yu was a textbook example of what the internet called a "sanctimonious bitch."
In her past life, she constantly sacrificed the interests of her Swift Leopard teammates to win public favor, leading many on the team to be full of grievances against her.
But at the time, Xu Yu was the Swift Leopard Team captain’s girlfriend, so no one else dared to criticize her too openly.
’And now, Xu Yu had appeared...’
’If I had been a member of the Swift Leopard Team back then, I’d definitely take this opportunity to get rid of her right now.’
’Unfortunately, I wasn’t. I’d only met Xu Yu a few times, so the animosity between us wasn’t that high.’
’But there were a few people on the Swift Leopard Team whom I actually admired.’
’Maybe in this life, I can pull those few into my own team?’ Xie Ning mused, her feet never stopping as she headed for the exit.
"Let’s go, Mom." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Seeing that they were actually leaving, Xu Yu grew anxious. "Can’t you find it in your hearts to do the vice principal a small favor?"
"There’s only one lecture hall on the fourth floor!" the director with the black-rimmed glasses shouted after them. "It’s useless for you to go up there. Why not take us out with you instead?"
Seeing Xie Ning’s group leave without a backward glance, the director frowned and turned to Chen Jiajia’s father. "Chen, what do you think we should do now?"
"If they could get in from the outside so easily, then getting out now must be simple," Chen Chong said after a moment of thought. "Director Shen, it looks like we can’t stay here for long."
"Dad, isn’t it dangerous outside? I thought you said we should just stay here and wait for rescue," the girl in the blue and white tracksuit pouted. "I don’t want to kill those disgusting things. I can’t do it."
Chen Chong stroked his daughter’s head and explained patiently, "Before, the water supply wasn’t an issue, so waiting a few more days for rescue was an option. But now we don’t even have water. The problems will only get worse if we stay. We have to leave immediately and find a safer place to wait for rescue."
Chen Jiajia bit her lip. "Dad, do you think they’ll really find that Song Shijun guy?"
"I don’t think it’s likely."
"And what good would it do even if they found him?" Chen Chong muttered vaguely, pulling his daughter toward the exit.
SWISH! A Metal Spike shot into Chen Jiajia’s arm. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Fast, vicious, and precise, it sank deep into her arm, followed by a sharp, stabbing pain.
