Chapter 79 Peering
The next day, when Du Jiujiu opened her eyes, she found that it was almost nine o'clock. This was a very rare situation for her who got up early every day before the apocalypse and did morning exercises.
Yesterday I was indeed too tired, but Du Jiujiu's physical fitness was really amazing. After just one night's sleep, all the physical fatigue had faded away.
Feeling the abundant energy throughout her body, Du Jiujiu stretched and sat up from the bench.
Seeing that the other people were still sleeping, Du Jiujiu stood up gently.
At this time, An Cheng was sleeping soundly next to Luo Yucheng. Judging from her appearance, she still couldn't sleep well that night.
Luo Yucheng is still unconscious, but his complexion is much better than last night. He was seriously injured and lost a lot of blood. It will probably take a long time to fully recover.
Du Jiujiu didn't want to wake up the others, so she walked lightly, walked to the wall and washed her face randomly with the water Wei Qingqing had prepared before.
When washing her face, Du Jiujiu always felt that something was wrong.
By the way, my face was obviously injured, but when I washed my face just now, it was smooth and there was no unevenness at all.
Du Jiujiu was a little surprised, and quickly walked to the glass and looked carefully at her own shadow reflected in the glass under the firelight.
It turned out that the scab had fallen off without her knowing it, revealing the newly grown white and tender skin underneath. Although there was still a slight color difference from the original skin at this time, it would be completely invisible soon.
"Maybe it was washed away when it rained yesterday? No wonder Su Xiaohan and An Cheng didn't look surprised when they saw me." Du Jiujiu touched her face and said to herself.
Since the battle last night, her nerves have been very tense, and she has no free time to pay attention to the changes in her body. She was too tired after returning to the subway station, and fell asleep after finishing everything.
Since awakening her powers, Du Jiujiu feels that the biggest change in herself is that she has become able to eat a lot. Just by sleeping, her stomach has become ravenous.
Du Jiujiu looked through the backpacks where they had stored food. Apart from dried meat, they only had chocolates and candies that Hu Xiaoyun carried back yesterday.
Du Jiujiu sighed secretly while chewing the dried meat. If those mutated cockroaches hadn't suddenly attacked them yesterday, she would have been able to carry back a lot of compressed biscuits and rice.
Ever since they killed the group of alien dogs, their food reserves have been inaccessible. If they don't find some food, I'm afraid these dried meats won't last long.
Du Jiujiu planned to go to the supermarket again. There were so many supplies left there unattended. She was really worried. She had to at least get enough of the supplies she needed before they were taken away by others or destroyed by strange beasts.
Not long after, the other people got up one after another, except for Luo Yucheng and the little boy Lin Haochen who were still unconscious.
After all, Lin Haochen was still young, and he had been forcing himself to wait for Du Jiujiu to come back yesterday. He was really sleepy. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, none of them had the heart to wake him up.
Du Jiujiu gently touched his soft hair, then stood up, grabbed a handful of chocolates from the backpack Hu Xiaoyun brought back yesterday, and placed it next to him.
"I plan to go to the supermarket today. We don't have much food." Seeing that they had all finished washing, Du Jiujiu directly expressed her thoughts.
"Now?" Hu Xiaoyun's expression was a little surprised. Yesterday, he drove all day long and experienced several battles. It was really too much for Hu Xiaoyun's physical fitness, which was only slightly higher than that of ordinary people. However, those supplies were
There, it's like an unguarded treasure, and it's really unsettling.
"Well, I'm going now, but this time I plan to go alone." Du Jiujiu nodded and continued.
"How can that be done? It's too dangerous! Yesterday you and Sister Xiaoyun went together and were injured. Otherwise, I will accompany you this time." Before Hu Xiaoyun could speak, An Cheng disagreed at first. When they came back yesterday,
The embarrassment was still vivid in her mind, so how could she rest assured that she would let Du Jiujiu take the risk alone this time.
"An Cheng, your injury is not completely healed yet. Even if you go with me, you won't be able to exert your full combat effectiveness. You'd better stay here to take care of Luo Yucheng."
Seeing that An Cheng was still worried, Du Jiujiu continued: "Sister Xiaoyun and I have almost cleared all the obstacles on the road yesterday, and there is no danger in the supermarket. If I be careful, there should be no problem.
I'll try my best to go back as soon as possible. If Sister Xiaoyun and Qingqing have time, they can find some edible wild vegetables near the subway station today. If I can catch some prey and come back, we can also have hot pot."
Seeing that Du Jiujiu persisted, they no longer stopped her. After all, Du Jiujiu was the strongest among them, and it might be easier for her to act on her own.
After convincing the three of them, Du Jiujiu sorted out the equipment she carried with her. The long knife was still carried on her back, the scimitar was slung at her waist, and she did not bring a hiking bag. After all, in the shops on the first floor of the mall, such hiking
There are so many bags that I can’t finish them all.
Before leaving, Hu Xiaoyun couldn't help but stuff a handful of dried meat into the pocket of Du Jiujiu's pants, so that he could replenish his energy if he encountered any accidents on the road.
Du Jiujiu accepted her kindness, and after saying goodbye to them, she walked out with a warm heart.
But when she just walked up the stairs to the underground floor, she saw Su Xiaohan leaning on the railing of the stairs, looking at her with smiling eyes.
"Xiao Jiujiu, where are my things?"
"What?" Du Jiujiu was stunned for a while. After a while, she remembered that she had promised to give Su Xiaohan a set of clothes as a thank you gift for saving her from the strange dog.
When she was in the mall yesterday, she did choose two sets of clothes for him, but when she was attacked by a mutated cockroach yesterday, she had no choice but to throw down her backpack in order to save Luo Yucheng, and those two clothes were among them.
"Sorry... for some reasons, I couldn't bring it back." Du Jiujiu said hesitantly, knowing that she was in the wrong.
"Some reasons? Could it be that you forgot what you promised me because of that man who was about to die?" The smile that had been hanging on Su Xiaohan's face gradually disappeared, and her sword-shaped eyebrows also wrinkled slightly.
"How can you be so stingy as a grown man! Of course, human life is more important than clothes!" Du Jiujiu looked at Su Xiaohan's sudden resentment and was a little puzzled. Even though she was a little unhappy, she thought that he had indeed helped her a lot.
, his mood calmed down a bit, and he spoke again:
"I'm preparing to go to the supermarket again. Don't worry, I will definitely bring it back to you no matter what happens this time."
Hearing this, Su Xiaohan's frown slowly relaxed.
