Amidst the darkness, warmth, and tranquility, Lin Sanjiu felt something fall on her face with a loud thud, spreading a painful sensation. The thing was lifted up and then dropped down again. This time, the sound was so loud that Lin Sanjiu's drowsiness was dispelled. She slowly opened her eyes. When her eyes met Bohemia's, one of the latter's hands froze in the air.
"You're finally awake?" Bohemia mumbled as she retracted her hand, feeling a little regretful. "I forgot that my ability is still on …"
Judging from the scorching sensation on her skin, Lin Sanjiu must have suffered more than just a few hits.
"How long has it been?" Only now did she realize that she was lying sideways on the red brick floor in a fetal position. After the effect of the statue wore off, she must have fallen in her original position. When she looked up again, Sesame Cake was lying in a different position. His back was on the ground, his limbs were spread out, and he was snoring in his sleep.
"Not long." Bohemia followed Lin Sanjiu's gaze and looked at Sesame Cake. Her face was as dark as an unhappy old lady's, "You put in so much effort, but you got nothing."
"As long as I didn't waste any time …" Lin Sanjiu thought to herself. It wasn't like she had never killed someone before, so she had long forgotten about the word "immoral". However, compared to killing someone, taking their organs made her feel more uncomfortable. However, there were some things that she had to do even if she felt uncomfortable. Sighing inwardly, she took out the harvester and asked, "Why? Do you want me to give it a try? "
"You can give it a try," Bohemia seemed to be uninterested, "I have been trying for a long time, but her body is empty. Not even a fart is stored in it."
[I don't want it even if it's stored.]
Lin Sanjiu frowned, "But she … She could still move, talk, and think just now. How could she not have any internal organs? A person with an empty body should be in a vegetative state. "
"How would I know?" If Bohemia was an animal, her body would already be covered with fur. "You don't believe me?" She seemed to be very sensitive about this. She stood up abruptly and said, "If you think that I have pocketed the things, you can shake her awake. I guarantee that she can still talk and move!"
Before Lin Sanjiu could explain, she suddenly became even angrier, "Hey, that's not right. Even if I took everything, I earned it myself. It has nothing to do with you. Why would I use the word 'embezzlement'?"
… It was unknown who he was angry with.
"I just find it a little strange," Lin Sanjiu rubbed her temples. She had no choice but to comfort her by announcing the non-existent ownership of the organs, "It's all yours. It's always yours. What I mean is, if she has a way to store her organs in a safe place and still be able to think and act on her own … then this method is very valuable to us, right? "
Bohemia's arrogance gradually subsided, and her hair shrank back to its usual appearance. "Of course I thought of it!"
The two of them turned their gazes back to the ground. The problem was that even if he shook Sesame Cake awake, she might not be willing to tell the truth.
"How long can she sleep like this?" Lin Sanjiu was afraid that she would accidentally wake Sesame Cake up, so she spoke softly.
"If no one wakes her up, it's all up to fate. I don't know. The poem doesn't talk about this kind of thing. "
If Lin Sanjiu said something like "Why don't you know your own ability?" at this moment, it would only make both of them bicker. Lin Sanjiu swallowed the words she wanted to say. She changed her approach and asked, "Then, is it possible to sleep for another ten minutes?"
"Who can say for sure. Maybe. "
What an irresponsible conversation.
"Then, can you help me carry her up?" Lin Sanjiu decided not to pester Bohemia any further. "I know a person. He has a ward near the surface … I'm not sure if that person is still there. Let's go and take a look first."
They had already gone through a few rounds of the game. If Raven Jiang didn't have enough points to buy the right to use the ward, the ward he obtained in the first round would probably be invalid. Even if they went to that ward, they wouldn't be able to find that person. However … Lin Sanjiu analyzed the situation in her mind. That's right. When she imposed martial law on the entire hospital, Raven Jiang probably hadn't returned to the ward yet. He was probably locked outside. If Lin Sanjiu was Raven Jiang, she would definitely do everything she could to keep that ward safe after the martial law was lifted.
Of course, the premise was that Raven Jiang didn't meet with any mishaps during the martial law.
"Why do you always have people you know?" Bohemia found Lin Sanjiu to be an eyesore when she was unhappy. "Are you a social butterfly?"
"Yes, yes," Lin Sanjiu replied casually. She didn't have many friends before the apocalypse. Her current thoughts were on Raven Jiang. Even Bohemia had mentioned that she had a hard time during the martial law. Raven Jiang, who didn't even have a waist …
"What about the help you need?" Bohemia's fist landed on a piece of cotton. She probably noticed that Lin Sanjiu was distracted, so she changed the topic, "You don't need any help?"
"Oh, that's not it," Lin Sanjiu snapped out of her daze, "You still need to help. Besides, the faster we move, the better. We need to be back at the cashier's office before six in the morning. "
Of course, Lin Sanjiu's goal was to return to the basement, but for now, she just told Bohemia the cashier's office. After all, she had to take things one step at a time.
Bohemia took out her leaf and looked at it. It was much more difficult to read the time from the leaf than from a clock. Lin Sanjiu didn't know why Bohemia didn't want to change to a watch, "We have less than five hours."
"We just made a scene at the cashier's office about ten minutes ago …"
"You … You made a scene."
"Fine, fine. I don't care who it is. "
"It's you."
"I made a scene!" Lin Sanjiu was speechless. "Didn't you also pretend to be kidnapped? If you go back so soon, they will definitely be suspicious. You don't know, these NPCs are very humane … I wouldn't be surprised even if they force you to tell me where I went. "
"I wonder if there's any reward left." Bohemia sighed.
"I'll give you some points, okay?" Lin Sanjiu felt a headache coming on. "Anyway, I think you should wait for a while. You can go back to exchange for the rewards after the commotion has died down. It would be better if the NPCs have changed shifts. So, while we wait, we should look for the person I know … If this woman is still asleep, that person might have a way to make her tell us the truth. "
It wasn't safe to stay in any place in the basement maze for too long. Moreover, the two guards could come back at any time if they couldn't find them. While the two of them were talking, they had already carefully lifted Sesame Cake up. Sesame Cake mumbled in his sleep and fell back into a deep sleep. Lin Sanjiu wrapped one of her arms around Sesame Cake's chest. She half-carried and half-carried Sesame Cake, using her other shoulder to support herself. Bohemia grabbed Lin Sanjiu's feet and dragged Lin Sanjiu into a small alley with a belly full of complaints.
"The person you know better have a way to make her tell the truth," Bohemia mumbled like a pigeon, "Otherwise, don't blame me for turning against you and taking away both of your kidneys."
"Oh, I only have one left."
Bohemia was taken aback, "Don't you think you're having a hard time?"
In the end, it turned out that the person who was having a hard time had enough passes. After Lin Sanjiu gave one to Bohemia, the two of them tried their best to avoid the sounds of other people. They walked along small alleys like two mice sneakily dragging eggs. Finally, they reached the edge of the basement — the circular wall.
Looking up, Raven Jiang's ward was just ten meters above them. The door was closed, just like the other wards around it. Lin Sanjiu couldn't tell if there was anyone inside.
"What should we do now?" Bohemia asked as she grabbed Sesame Cake's feet. "Where is the person you know?"
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment. She had already used up all her paper cranes. Other than this last resort, she had no other way to contact Raven Jiang.
She took a deep breath, and shouted in her dantian field, "Crow Jiang! Open the door! "
