Chapter 11 Departure

"Pain, pain, pain!" I straightened my back like a child being injected, hoping to alleviate the pain caused by Ban Zhiyu's treatment of the wound on my back, but the effect was minimal, "Ahhh ”

"It's not that exaggerated......" Ban Zhiyu looked at me with disdain, he shook the medical forceps on his hand, and the disinfectant cotton sandwich on it was also dipped in brownish iodine solution, "It's just to help disinfect your wounds......

"Try it!" I'm not convinced.

"Yes, yes, I'm not as lucky as you, I have so many wounds on my body, and I haven't even been bitten or scratched by a mutant. You're lucky...... Don't move now, I'll stitch you up. "The work at the base's medical station in the past few days has made the originally weak Ban Zhiyu an out-and-out war doctor, but judging from his operation of these medical equipment, the level is still in the amateur stage.

"Lucky? Being pressed to the ground by mutants three times in one day, and seeing all kinds of bloody violence, you say this is lucky? ”

"That's not, it's not lucky to be crushed to the ground three times by a mutant and still be able to yell here? The chest was purple and there were no broken bones. Ban Zhiyu smiled while bowing his head to help me stitch up the scratches left during last night's battle, "If you want me to say that you are too annoying, hell is too lazy to ask for you." ”

"Sounds like you'd like to see me die."

"Nope! I don't dare ......."

Although the words are still so hard-mouthed, I have to admit that I was really lucky to survive last night's battle. Overnight, there were no less than a dozen large and small wounds on my body, dredging and various abrasions were indispensable, and even the gunshot wounds that had healed before were torn. The chest that was hit hard by the mutant was not a big deal under the protection of the battle vest, but it left a large bruise like a tribal tattoo, and the wound on the back about five centimeters long was the most concerning, but after repeated examinations and tests by the doctors, the results finally came to the next morning - it was just a scratch. I don't know where I got this wound, but no matter what, we are in danger. The doctors also handed over this kind of suturing work, which did not have much technical content, to the intern Shui Pin's Ban Zhiyu.

"Hey! It hurts! "The tugging of the flesh around the wound made me restless, so I naturally sent all these complaints to Ban Zhiyu.

"It's okay to bear with it!" Ban Zhiyu ignored my protests and continued to concentrate on giving me stitches, and I didn't expect him to stitch well, leaving an ugly scar seemed inevitable.

I pursed my lips impatiently, hoping that he would quickly finish it for me so that I could go and see what was going on at the base after the war. Having said that, Huang Weizheng and Long Hao disappeared after they left me here, and I don't know what the other people are doing now.

"Are you feeling better?" Chen Mo took a cup of hot coffee, walked up to me and handed it to me and said with a smile, "Here, drink a cup of coffee to refresh yourself." ”

"It's a rare ......"

"What?"

Chen Mo didn't hear my whispered sarcasm clearly, so I hurriedly bluffed: "Ah no! Put it on that table, it's so hot, how can I drink it! ”

"Good intentions are not rewarded." Chen Mo pouted and put the coffee on the table in front of me, then found a chair to support the back and sat in front of me, looking at Ban Zhiyu with a new look on his face to help me sew stitches.

Being stared at by this unresponsive fool made me suddenly feel embarrassed. "Look at it!"

"It's fine. Did you get hurt like this in the past? ”

What's the problem...... I really don't know if Chen Mo's brain has fully developed, I am angry and funny: "What are you kidding, I am like a school bully." Besides, if it happens like this every time, I'll still have to work. ”

"Oh, too......" Chen Mo put her head on the back of the chair and posed thoughtfully, not knowing if she understood what I said.

"Ok, no problem! You can apply some potions and stuff to the rest of the bruises, don't waste them! Ban Zhiyu handed me a small bottle of potion as he gathered his tools, judging from his expression, he was quite satisfied with his "masterpiece", hoping that it would not be too bad.

I took a small pill bottle about the size of an eye drop bottle and said dissatisfiedly, "How can I use such a little bit!" ”

"Now that medicine is scarce, it's good to give it to you." Ban Zhiyu picked up the medical plate and shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'll go and see if there's anything else I need to help outside, you can rest here." ”

"That's right! Liang Minxi: They came back early this morning, there are some wounded, and Dr. Liu just said that he wants you to help. Chen Mo, who was thinking slowly, suddenly shouted.

"Why didn't you say it earlier...... Ban Zhiyu walked to the door curtain with a wry smile, shrugged helplessly and said, "Okay, Du Yuheng, don't run around, the wound will open again later." ”

"Yes, yes, I'm not a child." I glanced impatiently at Ban Zhiyu, who was looking at me with a distrustful expression, and seeing that he was still a little uneasy, I swept the air with my hand and coaxed away this verbose guy.

Ban Zhiyu knew that I was afraid that I would have to do it if I stayed any longer, so he hurriedly slapped his ass and left with a grin. I don't know when he became like another Huang Weizheng and began to like to talk nonsense to me, and I was like a troublesome ghost in this group of friends, always making them feel uneasy. Am I that reckless?

After the verbose ghost left, only me and Chen Mo were left in the room. Often only at this time will Chen Mo's sense of existence be improved, and when I look back, she is still staring at me as she did just now. In fact, I also have some secret joy in my heart, if I choose one of the girls we know to be my girlfriend, I will definitely choose her. The reason is very simple, it's a bully!

I thought so, but naturally I wouldn't show it so easily, so I put on a stinky face and said, "What are you doing here?" Go outside and help. ”

Unexpectedly, Chen Mo stomped his feet and shouted: "I kindly brought you coffee, why do you always dislike me!" ”

It seems that if I continue to say this, Chen Mo will definitely be angry, so I had to coax when I saw this: "Okay...... Miss, do you have anything to do with me? ”

"Can't you be here if you're fine?"

The most common vexatious joke for girls is starting to be staged, and I don't want to start a scolding war with her at this time after a tired day, compromise is the only option now. "Yes! Of course! You can stay together for as long as you want! Then I'll take a nap against the wall, and you continue to be busy. ”

"Hey, wait!" Seeing that I was about to get up and leave, Chen Mo hurriedly shouted, "I have something to do with you......

I knew that girls at school usually only asked me to do something, and never to do anything good. I sighed habitually, silently avenged myself, found a table to lean on, and said as I drugged myself, "Okay, what's the matter with me." ”

"You have the best relationship with Huang Weizheng, right......"

The conversation immediately piqued my interest, and I could feel the muscles in my face twitch unnaturally at this point. "yes, what's wrong with him?"

"Do you think he's a little strange lately......" was really said by this slow-responding girl, and I have more or less felt the subtle changes in Huang Weizheng's behavior in the past few days.

"Well, it's a little, but it's okay......"

"Are you sure?" Chen Mo looked at me and reconfirmed.

After a few seconds of staring at her, my own will began to waver, and before it could get stronger, I hastily shouted "Uh...... What are you doing! He's fine! You're worried! ”

"Good...... All right...... Since you've said so...... "Chen Mo's unnatural expression caught my attention, and from experience, I can guarantee that she still has something to say.

I put the medicine bottle aside, and I was not in the mood to rub the medicine in this case, so it was better to solve Chen Mo's problem as soon as possible. "Oh my God...... Sister, do you still want to say something! There are no outsiders here, you just say it! ”

Du Yuheng...... We're good friends, aren't we? ”

Suddenly asked by Chen Mo, I became a little stammering when I spoke, "Ah? Oh, count...... But then what? ”

"I've been thinking about something for a long time, and I think it's better to tell you." Chen Mo also lowered her head shyly, fiddling with her fingers, as if she had mustered up a lot of courage before she was about to speak.

Wouldn't it be that I thought of it with her? I couldn't help but hold my breath and looked at Chen Mo expectantly, my chest thumping, as if every second of this moment had become extraordinarily long.

"Uh......" After feeling like it was a long time, Chen Mo finally raised her head and looked at me with her clear eyes and said, "I...... I've liked Huang Weizheng for a long time! ”

"Huh?" My shoulders slumped, and my whole body seemed to be poured with cold water, and I suddenly sobered up a lot. It's really stupid, the topic of our conversation has always revolved around Huang Weizheng, how could it be around me! Besides, who would like an unreliable guy like me......

"Right...... That's right! So I hope you can take care of him more......" Speaking of which, Chen Mo talked about the boy she liked like other infatuated little girls, bowing her head slightly like a budding jasmine, and her face glowed with a fresh red, "You know, he always looks serious, but he is more fragile than we imagined...... But he was always reckless...... I'm too embarrassed to ask him...... You usually walk closest to him, please pay more attention to him, okay? ”

I looked at Chen Mo blankly like a blurred in the warm winter sun, and I couldn't help but envy Huang Weizheng; I didn't hear what Chen Mo said later. The sudden loss and self-deception embarrassment struck my chest again and again, and the ensuing labor pain was no less than the pain of the wound. The scenes that had been conceived and the conversations that had been silently prepared were all crammed into the deepest part of my heart.

"Du Yuheng?"

"Huh? Oh! No problem, I'll do it if you don't say I'll do it! Who is me or him! I gritted my molars and forced a stiff smile.

"Really? That's great! My assurance was like a stimulant that made Chen Mo smile all at once, and she rushed forward excitedly and gave me a big hug, not caring about the potion that had not yet dried on my body and my gloomy smile.

"Pain, pain, pain!" I tried to stop Chen Mo with both hands, but she was already holding me in her arms. At this time, I realized that her body temperature was so warm, but unfortunately there should not be such a chance in the future.

"I know that you Du Yuheng is righteous enough!" Chen Mo let go of her hand contentedly, but I still maintained the statue-like posture I had just made.

As soon as the two of us finished hugging, the distance between the two had not been completely widened, and Huang Weizheng, Long Hao and Liang Minxuan walked in with a smile. After seeing Chen Mo and I turn our heads in unison and hide the panic on our faces, all three of them nodded at us with a wicked smile and began to count the two of us in a self-righteous manner.

"Oooh! What are you two doing while we're not here? Long Hao has always been a pawn who ridicules me, and he was the first to take the lead and laughed, "Lonely men and widows are whispering here!" ”

"And Du Yuheng, you haven't dressed yet, what do you want to do to our family Chen Mo?" Liang Minxuan is really ruthless, and she finally settled such a big trouble, and she still has some virtue.

"I didn't ...... No! ”

"I didn't ...... No! Long Hao followed Chen Mo's denial in a toneful manner, and said with a grimace, "You have the potion that Brother Heng rubbed on your body, and you are embarrassed to say no!" ”

Chen Mo has never lied, so I grabbed the conversation and explained casually: "That, that Chen Mo got it when he was helping me with medicine!" ”

"Huh?" Chen Mo glanced at me, hesitated for half a second, and immediately understood, "Yes, yes!" ”

Huang Weizheng will never resolutely stand by my side at such a time, and he will definitely give me the final fatal blow. "Then where did Chen Mo help you wipe the medicine just now?"

"Waist!"

"Back!"

What a back! The potion on his body was obviously stained when he hugged just now, and no matter how it is, it won't be on his back! At this time, you can still think that you are really convinced of this stupid girl.

Huang Weizheng smiled and patted me on the shoulder, I looked at him innocently, not only did he not get sympathy, but he also fell into the well and said, "Yes, brother." ”

"It's a fart!"

I angrily put aside his hand, and was just about to start a counterattack, but Huang Weizheng deliberately changed his words and said: "By the way, you hurry up and change into a dress, Captain Liu is going to hold a base-wide meeting, and everyone must participate." ”

"I'm really going to pick a time to talk about things...... I muttered quietly, still waiting for an opportunity to explain the misunderstanding just now, but I can only swallow my anger when I see this situation.

"Now, your clothes." Liang Minxuan's face was still immersed in the joke just now, and she couldn't help but hand me a white long-sleeved shirt.

I took the clothes and asked as I put them on, "Are you going to leave now?" ”

"Then when do you want to wait until everyone else gathers." Liang Minxuan urged loudly, "Just you swallow slowly." ”

I rolled up my sleeves, pointed to the bruise on my right wrist and said aggrievedly, "Why do the wounded still attend......

"You're not seriously injured! And that Captain Liu also said that he wanted to apologize to us solemnly, and asked you to be there by name. Liang Minxuan smiled mysteriously, "That's right, Du Yuheng, you can be a soldier." The commander of the army values you! ”

I know that Liang Minxuan is teasing me again. Growing up, being a soldier was never on my mind, and one of the most important reasons was that I didn't want to be locked up in a barracks every day for training. Even so, this did not affect my love for military affairs in the slightest, and I was able to quickly master all kinds of military equipment and training movements. But then again, does it make a difference if you don't have to be a soldier now? We fight for our survival every day. In the aftermath of the apocalypse, combat basically took up the vast majority. Liang Minxing, who was pampered in the past, is not a hidden master?

"If you want to be a soldier, you should go, and I'd better go back to my Nanning." With a wave of my hand, I impatiently put an end to their endless reipire jokes and led the way out of the medical station.

Last night's fierce battle turned the originally vibrant and orderly Tianyang base beyond recognition. Our makeshift medical post was set up in the base's former military-controlled zone, and the damage here was not severe. The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant potions, and all the corpses on the road had been disposed of, but the dreaded blood stains had not yet had time to be washed away. The charred equipment everywhere was cleaned up centrally, and the living materials piled up on both sides were labeled with the names of each area of the base, which I guess was probably the emergency supplies of the base.

We didn't see anyone along the way, and most of the people we met were military and civilian volunteers who were in charge of the clean-up. Closer to the open meeting space in front of a hangar, the number of people to be seen gradually increased, but not as many as when we first arrived at the base. The scene was not as lively as before, people's faces were as gray as a layer of haze, the air seemed to freeze without a trace of life, and the coldness of autumn made it all more sentimental. From time to time, we could hear people sobbing and some whispering, and we didn't dare to break the silence, so we had to find a slightly remote corner to settle down and wait silently for the meeting to begin.

"There are so few people...... Is everyone here? I approached Huang Weizheng and asked.

"Well, counting the troops, there are probably only about a hundred people." Huang Weizheng stared at the helicopter parked in front of the hangar and said, "I did a little bit of statistics last night, and among the more than 100 people, there are twenty or thirty wounded, and it is difficult to rebuild the original base." ”

"Rest assured, all the people in our emergency brigade are men, and the lives of the residents can still be basically guaranteed." A tall figure emerged from behind us, and when we looked back, it turned out to be Xie Tao who had changed into a new combat uniform, he was already much taller than us, and standing straight behind us gave people a sense of potential oppression, if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice that he still had gunshot wounds on his body.

I looked at him from beginning to end, and secretly sighed in my heart the strong will and vitality of the soldiers. In fact, it can be seen from the standing posture that although they are peers, regardless of the degree of injury, at least Xie Tao is still in good spirits after a night of fierce fighting, and I am obviously inferior to him in this regard.

Standing next to the tall Xie Tao, I was like a street gangster, and Hang Erlang was greeting him: "Are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay after the bleeding stopped last night." Xie Tao was still a little embarrassed and said, "This little injury is commonplace for us." ”

Ban Zhiyu, who was barely enough to be shoulder-high Xie Tao, followed him honestly like his younger brother, and the moment he made eye contact with me, he immediately sensed from the crooked smile on my face that those unkind jokes were coming, and before I could open my mouth, he glared at me and said, "I know what you want to say, please don't open Chrysostom." ”

"You know what I'm trying to say?"

"It's not going to be a good thing to say anyway."

Now that the conspiracy has been exposed, I don't have much more to say, but Huang Weizheng, who is standing next to me, has been looking for something left and right, and is a little absent-minded about the conversation between a few of us. Looking around at my friends, I realized that Zhang Xiaoying and Lin Qu were not standing with us, as if they were deliberately avoiding people's eyes, hiding in the outermost layer of the crowd. After Huang Weizheng found the two of them, I also followed his gaze to find these two guys who seemed to be outsiders.

Zhang Xiaoying, who was still wearing that dark green jacket, had her hair in a ponytail, and if you added her recurve bow, she looked more like a real post-apocalyptic hunter. Lin Qu, who was earthy, also saw us at the same time, and beckoned to Huang Weizheng and me amicably but with some concern. Zhang Xiaoying leaned over, crossed her waist with her left hand and swung her right hand in the air at will, nodded to us seemingly unkindly, and pulled the corners of her mouth disdainfully like the head of a bad girl gang to show her kindness at the minimum. I have always respected this kind of big sister who is a little ruffian and domineering, but Huang Weizheng seems to be willing to bow down under her jeans, and also responds to her cold greeting with a smile without leaking.

"Hey, someone's coming." Liang Minxuan had been paying attention to the situation at the venue, and after seeing Liu Licheng appear solemnly in the crowd accompanied by several officers, she greeted us as if she was in the fun, "Let's start soon." ”
