Jun Zishu similarly expressed her frustration with the matter of falling ill.
[Iâve already raised your pain resistance as much as possible, Host.]
The most Little Fairy could do was reduce Jun Zishuâs pain sensitivity by 50%. Jun Zishu would have to endure the remaining 50%.
Alright.
Jun Zishu wasnât feeling pain because she was injured. Instead, it was because her period had arrived.
The original owner was the one who suffered the worst period pains out of everyone in Room 412. Since Jun Zishu had taken over this body, she naturally had to experience these period pains as well.
These were the worst period pains Jun Zishu had ever suffered across her multiple lives. It still felt incredibly unpleasant even after her pain sensitivity was halved.
To make matters worse, due to their lack of proper blankets and weakened immune system, Jun Zishu caught a cold and a mild fever. Despite it being early spring right now, she felt like she was in the middle of winter.
âWhat should we do? Her forehead is getting hotter and hotter. We donât have any medicine,â Liu Manman said, frowning after she felt the temperature of Jun Zishuâs forehead.
âItâs fine. Itâs only a small problem,â Jun Zishu said while resting in Ren Nanyingâs arms. However, despite her flushed face and sickly pale lips, she wore a very calm expression on her face, behaving as if she wasnât the one who was ill.
Honestly, Jun Zishu didnât expect that after breaking through so many worlds, she would eventually succumb to her menstrual cycle.
Unfortunately, this was a problem that all women couldnât avoid unless they went into menopause.
âIt will become a big problem if we leave you like this,â Lin Su said disapprovingly. âTongtong, youâre a medical student. Can you take a look at her?â
âThis is obviously a case of fever caused by a cold. Sheâll get better once she takes medicine. If you want me to treat her, I can give her an autopsy after she dies,â Liu Yingtong said, her mouth twitching when she heard Lin Suâs question. She studied forensic science, not family medicine.
âWe need to go get medicine from the infirmary,â Ren Nanying said as she lowered her gaze and placed her hand on Jun Zishuâs forehead.
It was dangerous, but she must go.
âThatâs right.â Liu Yingtong nodded. Then, she looked at Jun Zishu and asked, âDoes your throat hurt?â
âA little.â
âYou might have throat inflammation as well,â Liu Yingtong speculated. Then, she looked toward Ren Nanying and asked, âYouâre going to go to the infirmary, right?â
Nodding, Ren Nanying asked, âWhat kind of medicine do I need to retrieve?â
âIf you see any flu medicine, take it. Itâs usually in the second cabinet. Acetaminophen and compound acetaminophen alkylamine tablets will also do. Her condition isnât so serious that she needs an IV drip, but you should still try to return with the medicine as quickly as possible. If her condition gets dragged out for too long, she might very well need an IV drip.â
âOkay.â
âAre you going alone, Cousin?â Liu Manman asked worriedly.
âYes.â
âThere must be many monsters inside the infirmary. It wonât be safe for you to go alone. How about I go with you?â Jiang Mubai suggested, his words causing Jun Zishuâs eyes to narrow.
âAre you willing to go with them?â Jun Zishu asked as she looked at Chen Beimo.
Chen Beimo was momentarily stunned. Then, he quickly nodded.
âI donât need so many people to go with me,â Ren Nanying said as she caressed Jun Zishuâs face and gently set her down on the bed.
âI donât feel relieved letting you go alone. I donât feel relieved letting Jiang Mubai go with you, either. Add Chen Beimo into the mix. The two of them are boys, so they should be capable fighters,â Jun Zishu said.
âWhy donât you feel relieved with me going with her? Do you not trust me?â Jiang Mubai bluntly asked, feeling a little confused.
âIn a sense, you count as my former love rival,â Jun Zishu answered.
âAnd you count as my former suitor,â Jiang Mubai retorted.
The atmosphere quickly grew awkward, and Ren Nanying didnât know what she should say in this situation.
âIâm joking,â Jun Zishu said. She knew that there was zero chance for Jiang Mubai to suddenly undergo a drastic change in personality. There was no way he would do anything to threaten Ren Nanying. Then, she asked Ren Nanying, âThereâs some distance between the infirmary and food court, so it will be a difficult journey. Have you been to the infirmary before?â
Jun Zishu sniffled after she finished speaking. At this point, Lin Su had also covered her body with the other quilt.
âIâve been there. Distance isnât a problem. Weâll try to return before nightfall,â Ren Nanying said. It was already the afternoon right now. If they couldnât return before the sky darkened, itâd become significantly more difficult for them to move about.
Afterward, Ren Nanying, Jiang Mubai, and Chen Beimo walked to a corner and began planning their operation.
They had no idea what the situation was like at the infirmary right now, but it wasnât difficult to imagine that it was incredibly terrible. Thus, Ren Nanying felt that itâd be best if they went there and returned as quickly as possible.
However, the mission this time wouldnât be the same as the supermarket operation. There were people inside the supermarket, so entering it was a relatively smooth and safe process. The infirmary, though, was a different story.
After discussing their plans, Ren Nanying picked up the empty backpack and walked up to Jun Zishu.
âIâm going. Iâll come back as soon as possible,â Ren Nanying said.
Jun Zishu nodded and hooked a finger at Ren Nanying, indicating her to come closer.
Confused, Ren Nanying leaned forward a little, only for Jun Zishu to hold her face and plant a cooling kiss on her cheek the next moment.
âWith this, you wonât get infected. Go ahead,â Jun Zishu said, smiling.
Ren Nanying nodded before planting a kiss on Jun Zishuâs forehead.
Liu Manman: Itâs mushy. Itâs too mushy.
Xu Qiu: Reality is harsh. Itâs too harsh.
Liu Yingtong: â¦â¦
Little Fairy quietly watched from the side, and she couldnât help but hold her blushing cheeks.
Ren Nanying leaped out of the window with the backpack on her back. Then, Chen Beimo and Jiang Mubai quickly followed her.
Once the three were out, Xu Qiu closed the window, leaving only a small gap open.
Jun Zishuâs brain was feeling a little heavy, and she couldnât help but feel sleepy.
It had already been a long time since Jun Zishu had been sick. She vaguely remembered that the last time she had fallen ill was during her first mission.
âTake a nap, Zishu. You need to rest to recover,â Lin Su said.
Jun Zishu nodded and fell asleep.
â¦
The next time Jun Zishu woke up was because she heard Liu Manmanâs questioning voice coupled with a noisy environment. Frowning, Jun Zishu opened her eyes to look at the situation in front of her.
[Host, eight people just climbed in through the window. After coming in, they promptly began scavenging for food, and theyâve already swept away all of your remaining lunch.]
To avoid wasting the perishable ingredients, Lin Su had made a lot for lunch. Thus, they had a lot of leftovers after lunch.
However, even after finishing the leftovers, the new arrivals still wore hungry looks on their faces.
âThatâs enough from you people! What are you making all this noise for?! Do you think youâre robbing a bank?! Do you not know there are zombies outside?!â Liu Manman yelled, finally unable to hold back her anger. Not only did these new arrivals start eating their food without saying a word, but they even kept on going through the refrigerator like a hungry pack of wolves. Because of their reckless behavior, theyâve made a complete mess of the refrigerator and the kitchen counters.
Upon hearing Liu Manmanâs words, the new arrivals stopped their actions and glared hatefully at Liu Manmanâs group.
Meanwhile, Liu Manman and the others could see that these new arrivals mustâve been starving for several days already. However, that didnât excuse them for making a mess of the place as soon as they arrived.
Even if Liu Manman knew this was a public space and that everyone could come in, she still couldnât help but find the actions of these new arrivals upsetting.
âWhat happened?â
Jun Zishu sat up, her long hair scattered across the sides of her face. Right now, she exuded the air of a sick beauty.
The boys on the other side promptly turned to Jun Zishu, entranced by her beauty.
âThose people just came in here, Goddess. Look at the mess theyâve made. Theyâve even eaten all the food Susu made for lunch,â Liu Manman complained. At the same time, she also took a step to her right, blocking the boysâ view of Jun Zishu.
âSorry. We were just too hungry,â the boy in the lead stood forward and apologized. Several of the other boys behind him also lowered their heads.
âWhat are you apologizing for, Chen Yang? This place doesnât belong to them, to begin with. So what if we eat the food here?â someone said in a nonchalant tone. Anger had flared up within him when he arrived in this kitchen and saw how comfortably the girls here lived. After all, their group had been living in fear and hunger these past few days, while these girls had been living here safe and sound with plenty of food to spare.
âIf you donât know how to speak properly, go back to your motherâs stomach and learn how to do so before you open your mouth,â Liu Manman said derisively.
âYou fucking⦠What do you want?â
The boy Liu Manman criticized stepped forward in agitation, but the boy named Chen Yang quickly stopped him.
âOkay, stop arguing. Itâs unsightly. This is indeed a public space. If this were private properly, I wouldâve already kicked you people out,â Jun Zishu said as she gathered her hair and tied it into a ponytail.
âThe ingredients here were purchased by the food courtâs staff, so they indeed donât belong to us. However, they donât belong to you, either. Not only did you not thank us after eating the food we made, but you are even trying to pick a fight with us now. Why bother coming to university if you donât even know basic manners? With such a bad temper, even construction sites wonât accept you in the future,â Jun Zishu said in a calm tone, her words full of mockery.
Liu Manman nodded in agreement.
âYou!â
The face of the boy Jun Zishu criticized flushed red with anger. However, he eventually chose to hold back his anger and keep quiet considering the current situation.
âStop arguing. Itâs the apocalypse already. Itâs already a challenge for everyone to survive, so letâs not start internal disputes again,â Chen Yang said.
âThese girls donât look like they are having a tough time surviving,â the snarky boy commented.
âZhang Hongji!â
Chen Yang turned around and rebuked the snarky boy named Zhang Hongji. Then, he turned back to Jun Zishuâs group and smiled at them apologetically.
âWhich department are you from?â Jun Zishu frankly asked. Though, she couldnât be bothered to smile at these new arrivals.
âWeâre from the Science Department.â
âAll of you are?â
âYes. we were in the same classroom when the zombies appeared.â
âTidy up the mess youâve made. We still need to continue living here.â
âOkay.â
Jun Zishu didnât try to make things difficult for these new arrivals. After telling them to clean up their mess, she simply ignored them.
After tidying up the mess they made, the eight boys from the Science Department sat in another corner of the kitchen, and the atmosphere in the kitchen calmed down again.
When Jun Zishu saw the look of exhaustion on those boysâ faces, she determined that they wouldnât be a threat. So, she closed her eyes and resumed her rest.
Meanwhile, Liu Manman and the others sat around Jun Zishu, forming a circle around her. Then, they began conversing with each other by typing messages using their phones.
Liu Manman: I donât like them.
Lin Su: Relax. Weâre all schoolmates.
Xu Qiu: The food we have here wonât last long with them here.
Liu Manman: Theyâre all boys. What should we do if they go crazy?
Lin Su: I donât think theyâll be that bad.
Xu Qiu: We need to be prepared.
When Liu Yingtong saw the messages on the othersâ phones, she lowered her head and pondered for a moment. Then, she grabbed Liu Manmanâs phone and typed a message.
Liu Yingtong: I know the structure of the human body. I also know where to stab to avoid creating a fatal wound.
After typing her message, Liu Yingtong took out her scalpel and waved it around. The scalpel was wiped clean, and it could almost serve as a mirror.
The other girls gulped at this sight, and they couldnât help but give a thumbs-up to Liu Yingtong.
The girl was truly a ruthless person.
