Chapter 28 : C28
Song Shi’s complexion was a little ugly, but thinking of Gu Chi’s current attitude, she had no choice but to put away her prejudices for the time being. She forced a smile, changed to her businesslike look, and said softly, “I took it for granted.”
She dismissed the accusation just now with a single sentence.
Seeing Gu Chi look away, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, Chi Ying was already infected with the virus, so she wouldn’t live for long. There was no need to make Gu Chi unhappy because of a person who was about to become a monster.
But Chi Ying didn’t understand the twists and turns.
She was looking at the additional Virgin Mary values on the system panel with admiration.
Probably what Gu Chi said affected the rest of the people. They thought that she risked her life to save Gu Chi, so the Virgin Mary’s value also increased by a few points.
“Then, what should we do now?”
Mu Yu looked at the crowd, feeling a little lacking in words.
What to do?
Chi Ying’s outcome was already doomed, and they all knew it well. What else could they do besides waiting for her to die?
Gu Chi was silent for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice, “Let’s heal her wound first.”
“Those with a short mutation time may completely become zombies within a few hours, but there were also those with a long time, and there were even cases where they were infected for three days before they mutated.”
“Her wound is not small, and it may be difficult to heal naturally. If the mutation takes a long time, we will suffer a lot.”
“Heal the wound…” Lu Yunfei smiled wryly.
What other treatment was necessary?
Gu Chi pursed his lips and said, “Song Shi, please.”
“But…” Song Shi raised her eyebrows lightly, and was hesitant to speak.
She smiled apologetically, “You also know that I have no offensive ability. If she suddenly mutates, I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop her.”
“Don’t worry, her hands are already tied. The captain’s handcuffs are made of a special material, and they are difficult to remove.”
Just as Lu Yunfei finished speaking, a deep voice sounded, “I’ll help you keep a watch on her.”
Song Shi looked at the speaker in surprise, it was Gu Chi.
“I’ll be watching her from the side, nothing will happen.”
…
Chi Ying then followed them to the side.
Gu Chi removed the handcuffs. Chi Ying’s arms were instantly released, and she even wanted to move her wrists loose. But considering that in the eyes of the two people beside her, she was a “quasi-zombie” who could mutate at any time, she held back silently.
But Gu Chi’s eyes fell on the particularly glaring wound.
Chi Ying was very pale, and her skin was so delicate that the naked eye could see it. The bloody cut was very eye-catching.
Song Shi stretched out her hand to stop above the wound, then when her eyes closed, a faint green halo appeared from the palm of her hand, covering Chi Ying’s wound.
The wound that kept bleeding stopped bit by bit. After the bleeding stopped, the flesh healed visibly until the skin returned to the same whiteness as the side.
“Done,” she breathed a sigh of relief and said to Gu Chi.
“Thank you,” Chi Ying thanked her obediently.
“Do you want to handcuff me?” She stretched out her thin and straight wrists and looked at Gu Chi.
The two metal rings that made the handcuffs were tightened in Gu Chi’s hands, making a crisp collision sound.
He wanted to make a move, but he caught a glimpse of the red marks on Chi Ying’s wrists that had just disappeared, which was the mark from the metal handcuff.
“…No need for now, I’m here to keep a watch on you.”
Song Shi, who was about to get up and leave, froze when she heard the words. She said, “Brother Gu, do you want to stay here all night?” She glanced out the window, “It’s getting dark, and it’s time for supper.”
Gu Chi shook his head, and said, “Forget it. Go eat, remember to save a portion for Chi Ying.”
Song Shi’s eyes flickered slightly, concealing the uncomfortable feeling in her heart.
She was obviously just an outsider, but after staying in the team for a few days, Gu Chi could do that for her…
She remained calm, said, “Um,” and left.

After eating the delivered dinner, Chi Ying yawned lazily.
It was already very late, almost the time to go to bed as usual. But the man next to her didn’t feel anything yet. Sitting against the wall, he didn’t seem to be sleepy at all.
“Why don’t you go to sleep? Just handcuff me. Don’t worry, I don’t have that much strength, even if I become a zombie, I won’t be able to break free.”
Gu Chi raised his head and glanced at her lightly.
“I’m not sleepy, and I don’t want to sleep.”
“Oh.” Chi Ying stretched, “Then, I’ll go to bed first.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Um?”
Chi Ying, who was about to fall asleep, was a little awake. After realizing why he was apologizing, she said relaxedly, “It’s okay, I said it will be fine.”
She smiled at Gu Chi, the warm light seemed to be shining in her eyes, which was astonishingly warm.
“Even if something happens, I won’t blame you.”
[The value of the Virgin Mary has increased by one.]
The system felt that Chi Ying was like a real virgin mary with a golden halo on her head at that moment, and it was obvious that this villain liked it.
It took a long time before she heard Gu Chi’s extremely soft voice, “You… What do you want to do?”
Chi Ying was a little amused. Was he asking her to express her last words?
That was naturally to collect the Virgin Mary’s value, and then save the world.
However, of course, that couldn’t be said.
She thought for a while and said, “Then I want to try the lemon tea.”
