BXBX NOVEL Chapter 179
"Conscience?" Yun Xiaoxiao sneered.
"My conscience was crushed by your own hands in my previous life!"
Unlike Jiang Rui\'an, this Yun Shaokai had personally pushed her into a horde of zombies, truly wanting her dead.
Naturally, she wouldn\'t let him off easily.
She had thought he died at the hospital earlier.
But not only had he survived, he\'d delivered himself right to her doorstep.
She certainly wouldn\'t waste his \'kind intentions\' - she must help him \'move on\' properly.
"You\'re not Yun Xiaoxiao. Who exactly are you?
How can a child be so vicious!"
"I am who I am."
"You mentioned your previous life? Could it be... you\'ve returned from your past life?!"
As Yun Shaokai spoke, he became increasingly convinced his guess was correct.
Yun Xiaoxiao slowly curved her lips, "Congratulations, you\'re right. And now, I inform you - it\'s time for you to die."
Amidst Yun Shaokai\'s immense terror, Yun Xiaoxiao kicked him down.
Listening to the screams from below, Yun Xiaoxiao\'s eyes grew dark.
"Do you find me frightening?"
This question was directed at Nie Yizhou, who stood somewhat dazed beside her.
Nie Yizhou quickly snapped back to attention and chuckled, "How could I? Living a second life must mean heaven owes you and is making amends.
You\'ve helped so many survivors; people can\'t praise you enough. How could you be frightening?
Don\'t worry, I won\'t tell anyone this secret. I\'ll keep it safe for you.
As for these two scumbags, they deserved to die. They would\'ve been a menace if they lived - it\'s not your fault.
Relax, you\'ll always be our little sister, innocent and adorable."
Heh.
Yun Xiaoxiao couldn\'t help but laugh.
While Nie Yizhou\'s previous words were sincere, for the final "innocent and adorable," he had mentally substituted "sharp-tongued and arrogant."
"Alright, since we\'re out here, we might as well not waste the trip. Let\'s collect some crystal cores."
And incidentally, eliminate all traces!
After killing the zombified Yun Shaokai and that man, Yun Xiaoxiao, along with her companions and Little Darling and Big Beauty, cleared out some more zombies, collected the crystal cores, and then returned to the base.
Since carrying Big Beauty around all the time was sometimes inconvenient,
Yun Xiaoxiao kept it in her spatial storage.
She would only bring it out when necessary.
Upon their return, Lu Chen and the others had dealt with the remaining people.
"We\'ve driven everyone away, except these two,"
Lu Chen pointed at the couple, Zhong Huainong and Wu Changlan.
These two had been quite clever earlier, not participating in the looting, so they weren\'t injured.
Originally, Lu Chen and Ling Jing had planned to drive them away forcefully, but coincidentally, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong Mingsheng passed by during their walk while the couple was crying and making a scene.
Since Mr. and Mrs. Zhong Mingsheng were important figures in the base, Lu Chen and the others couldn\'t disregard their face, so they had to wait for Yun Xiaoxiao to return and make the decision.
"Xiaoxiao, they are my younger brother and sister-in-law after all. Could you please let them stay, for my sake?"
Seeing Yun Xiaoxiao\'s silence, Zhong Mingsheng sighed.
"Though I know this puts you in a difficult position, my brother is my only blood relative left in this world. I really can\'t bear to see them die miserably outside.
Just let them stay with me and clean the hospital, alright?"
Zhong Mingsheng\'s tone carried a hint of pleading.
Yun Xiaoxiao frowned.
Honestly, she was reluctant to agree.
But Mr. and Mrs. Zhong Mingsheng were key personnel in researching the zombie virus antidote, so she couldn\'t really refuse them this face.
She lazily swept her gaze over Zhong Huainong and his wife.
Though these two had questionable character, they weren\'t truly evil people - just a bit selfish, lacking in collective spirit, lazy...
Enough, Yun Xiaoxiao dared not continue listing their faults.
Otherwise, she might not be able to resist driving them away.
"I can give them a chance to enter, but I require that their activities be restricted to the hospital area. They\'ll be responsible for the hospital\'s sanitation, and I\'ll conduct random inspections. If they don\'t do well, they\'re out immediately.
Moreover, if they have any harmful intentions, death will be their only path."
She deliberately made it sound severe as a warning.
She didn\'t want to let people in who would cause her trouble.
"Can you do this?"
"Yes, yes, we can!"
"We promise to keep the hospital spotlessly clean."
Zhong Huainong and Wu Changlan hurriedly nodded.
They weren\'t lying about these promises.
"Thank you, little girl," Zhong Mingsheng quickly expressed his gratitude.
Yun Xiaoxiao waved her hand and walked straight into the base.
After traveling for so long and being busy upon return, she was now both exhausted and hungry.
Nobody better disturb her meal!
Because they had rescued so many people, Qin Zhi and the others could only cook porridge in several large pots.
They also simply stir-fried some vegetables collected from outside the base and made a radish dish with some minced meat.
Though there were only two dishes and they were simple,
Many people couldn\'t help but tear up as they ate the hot food.
Zhong Huainong and Wu Changlan especially regretted their actions so much their intestines could have turned blue.
They regretted ever doubting Yun Xiaoxiao.
They should have followed her earlier.
Then they wouldn\'t have suffered so much hardship and almost failed to get in.
After dinner, Yun Xiaoxiao let everyone go about their own activities.
But she announced that everyone should gather at the square early tomorrow morning.
Yes, there was a large open space near the base\'s main gate.
After Liu Yi\'s renovation, it had been transformed into a spacious square.
It was as large as a football field.
--
After returning, Yun Xiaoxiao went into her spatial storage and sprawled out for a nice nap.
Until...
A tiger\'s roar startled her awake.
She crawled out of the large tent to see Big Beauty and Little Darling facing off against each other.
Nearby, Big White stood holding a watering can, tilting its head as it watched the show.
Yun Xiaoxiao rubbed her temples.
What was it this time?
These two were always fighting - one big fight every three days, one small fight every two days.
Every time they fought, they would wreck the place, causing Big White\'s carefully planted vegetables and fruit trees to suffer.
But Big White never complained or made a fuss, just quietly watched the show.
Yun Xiaoxiao felt that Big White seemed to really enjoy watching these shows...
As soon as Yun Xiaoxiao approached, both immediately behaved themselves.
Aliali: 6747c480c4f3f33ac46fd021They ran over to act cute and spoiled.
Little Darling shrank small and climbed onto Yun Xiaoxiao\'s shoulder, affectionately nuzzling her cheek.
Big Beauty used its fluffy, chubby body to nudge Yun Xiaoxiao\'s arm.
"Alright, alright, you\'re both very good. Stop fighting and learn to get along, okay?"
She patiently played the peacemaker.
The two seemed to understand and nodded repeatedly.
But when Yun Xiaoxiao wasn\'t looking, they glared at each other.
After pacifying the two, Yun Xiaoxiao stretched lazily and started getting down to business.
They had collected many crystal cores on this trip.
Adding those from selling evolution liquid to Rongsheng Base and what Ci Wan\'s team had turned in, she wondered if it would be enough for the remaining eight thousand plus points?
