Outside Room 1302, Yue Jiayu stood pitifully at the door, her bright, watery eyes filled with tears, her small hands tightly clasped together.
Her pretty face was etched with unease and worry; she was concerned about her sister's illness and also afraid of whether that rascal would torture her in 108 different ways.
But she had no choice; her sister was sick, and now she could only turn to this rascal, thief, exhibitionist, and murderer.
"That's not the sound of a zombie knocking; it might be our little neighbor next door.
You go into the bedroom first, and I'll go check," Zuo Feng said, gently patting Yun Qianqian's smooth back.
He got dressed, stood up, and walked towards the door, holding his sharpening rod.
"Oh, then be careful!" Yun Qianqian urged with concern, her voice soft but tinged with nervousness.
Looking out through the peephole, Zuo Feng was stunned; what met his eyes was a pair of bright, watery eyes.
It was actually a young girl whose beauty was no less than that of Da Bai Tu.
Her pitiful appearance made his heart ache with sympathy, and Zuo Feng now had only two thoughts in his mind:
First: When would those tears, swirling in her beautiful eyes, finally fall? Waiting online, urgently!
Second: Bullying her a little would surely make her cry all day; he really wanted to try.
Yue Jiayu gave off that kind of feeling; one look, and you couldn't help but want to tease her a little.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
Zuo Feng's tone was cold.
He had only seen his little neighbor next door once, and that was when her hair was completely covered.
Now, with such an exquisite young girl suddenly appearing at his door, he really couldn't be sure if she was that little neighbor.
"Little ras... you... hello, my name is Yue Jiayu.
My... my sister is sick.
Can you save her?"
Yue Jiayu almost blurted out the label she had given Zuo Feng, her voice trembling, tears rolling in her eyes but stubbornly refusing to fall.
Seeing this, the wicked thought in Zuo Feng's heart to tease her instantly dissipated, replaced by a touch of pity.
"What's wrong with your sister?"
Opening the door, Zuo Feng frowned slightly, his tone softening.
He had already realized that this beautiful young girl was his little neighbor, but he hadn't expected her to have a sister living with her.
However, getting sick at this time was not good news; unable to go to the hospital, a minor illness could easily become a major one.
"She... she suddenly has a fever and is completely weak.
We don't have any medicine at home, and I don't know what to do alone.
Can you help me go see her?"
No sooner had she spoken than tears began to patter down from Yue Jiayu's watery eyes, making Zuo Feng feel a wave of relief.
The tears had finally fallen; he felt much better.
"Is it your neighbor?"
Da Bai Tu, wearing Zuo Feng's shirt, bounced out.
This time, she had fastened the buttons and even found a pair of large shorts from the wardrobe and put them on.
Zuo Feng was startled, fearing that she might pop the buttons of his favorite shirt.
Then he felt a bit awkward; how could Zuo Feng's waist compare to Da Bai Tu's?
Although the large shorts were cinched with a belt, they looked awkward no matter how he saw them.
Da Bai Tu's appearance made Yue Jiayu pause, her tear-filled eyes making her appear even more pitiful.
"I'll go take a look.
In this apocalypse, it's not easy to survive; we should help if we can," Zuo Feng sighed, turned back into the room, and grabbed the first-aid kit.
Fortunately, it was just a fever, and the medicine box had fever reducers and anti-inflammatory drugs, which should provide temporary relief.
"I want to go too!"
Da Bai Tu jumped directly onto Zuo Feng's back, and Zuo Feng shook his head helplessly.
With Da Bai Tu on his back, his steps remained steady.
Seeing this, Yue Jiayu's eyes flashed with gratitude, and she followed closely.
"Thank you," Yue Jiayu's bright, watery eyes instantly filled with gratitude.
Yue Jiayu felt like her world was collapsing; her sister, who had been lively and healthy, suddenly lay in bed, unable to be woken, which had terrified her.
Zuo Feng gently comforted her, "Don't worry, we'll do our best to help." Carrying Da Bai Tu, Zuo Feng entered Yue Jiayu's home.
"Hehe, a delicate, soft, easily-toppled, and pitiful exquisite soft girl, oh.
Making her cry and hearing her scream would surely be very stimulating.
Xiao Nan Ren, are you tempted?"
Da Bai Tu teased, and Zuo Feng chuckled helplessly, knowing Da Bai Tu loved to flirt, so he didn't bother to argue, just rolled his eyes in exasperation.
Yue Jiayu's face flushed, and she lowered her head, remaining silent, but a warmth spread in her heart because of the joke.
Mainly, she didn't understand the double meaning of "making her cry and hearing her scream would surely be very stimulating"; otherwise, she would have been too embarrassed to find a hole to crawl into.
The three entered the clean and tidy room, and when the two saw the sister curled up on the bedroom bed, they were both stunned.
They thought they had encountered a supernatural event; there was clearly one standing next to them, but how could there be another identical one lying on the bed?
Even their figures were exactly alike.
"Da Mi Tao!"
When his gaze caught the breathtaking curves outlined by the tight-fitting sports pants, Zuo Feng immediately realized.
Wasn't this the peach-like silhouette he had seen in the kitchen?
He subconsciously glanced at Yue Jiayu, who was wearing a thin nightgown, and his nose suddenly felt warm: Good heavens! There were two Da Mi Taos.
"Wow, Xiao Nan Ren, exquisite sister flowers!
Are you tempted? Double the pleasure, oh."
Yun Qianqian was equally astonished.
She had always been extremely confident in her beauty, and now, before her eyes, appeared two sisters who were her equal, like reflections in a mirror, which was simply incredible.
A hint of excitement flashed in Yun Qianqian's eyes, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly, as the idea of playing a game of 'spot the difference' naturally arose.
She lightly jumped off Zuo Feng's back, sat on the edge of the bed, her gaze moving between the two sisters, a playful smile on her lips.
"My sister... is she still saveable?"
Yue Jiayu sniffed her delicate little nose, looking anxiously at Zuo Feng, her teary-eyed expression as if she would burst into tears any second.
"Let me check first."
Struggling to avert his gaze from the 'peaches,' Zuo Feng began to observe carefully.
The girl's tight-fitting sportswear was already soaked with sweat, clinging to her skin, revealing alluring curves.
Her slender little hands tightly clutched her heart, and seeing this, a word inexplicably came to Zuo Feng's mind—enormous!
If he hadn't seen the full scope of a basketball today, Zuo Feng might have exclaimed: It's too damn big!
But now, Zuo Feng was a man who had seen the full scope of a basketball, a man of experience!
Now? Heh, just enormous!
So-so...
Zuo Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions, and carefully examined Yue Jiayu's sister's condition.
He reached out to touch the girl's forehead, but as soon as his hand touched it, Zuo Feng quickly withdrew it, his expression suddenly becoming extremely serious: "So hot!"
The girl's body temperature on the bed had already approached 50 degrees Celsius!
This... could it be a precursor to mutation?
Ordinary high fever could never reach this point; a person would have died from the fever long ago.
But Zuo Feng also couldn't be sure if such terrifying high temperatures would occur before zombification.
"Da Bai Tu, her body temperature is almost 50 degrees Celsius.
Take off her clothes, and both of you carefully check her entire body.
Don't miss any wounds!
If she makes any slight movement, tell me immediately!"
Zuo Feng decisively turned his back to the bed.
He naturally wouldn't peek.
The reason he didn't immediately leave the bedroom was his concern that if the girl was indeed turning into a zombie, he would have to react at the first possible moment.
Yun Qianqian and Yue Jiayu quickly moved, carefully examining the girl's body, not missing a single detail.
The air seemed to solidify, tense to the point of suffocation.
Yun Qianqian's face also became serious.
She knew the gravity of the situation, her fingers lightly touching the girl's skin, meticulously searching for any possible wounds.
Time seemed to stretch indefinitely, every second a long and agonizing wait.
Tears fell from Yue Jiayu's eyes again, and she sobbed softly, murmuring, "Sister, you'll be alright..." Her trembling fingers, however, dared not slacken, repeatedly searching every corner, fearing to miss any detail.
"Xiao Nan Ren, we've checked thoroughly, there isn't a single wound." Yun Qianqian and Yue Jiayu checked several times, but found no wounds on the girl's body.
