: I OPENED A CLINIC IN THE APOCALYPSE

• • •
Wen Qingling’s spiritual power has always followed Miao Bo. The Yue County base is already located on the outskirts of Yue County, where there are hardly any zombies to be seen. The base is built around the granary, enclosing it within. The people of Yue County live on the outskirts of the granary. The original buildings couldn’t accommodate everyone, so they built their own shelters and houses. The base is crowded and chaotic.

Miao Bo returned to the base alone, arousing the alertness of the gatekeepers. His explanation was that their comrades who went out together got trapped in a zombie horde, and he came back to bring reinforcements.

The gatekeepers didn’t give him a hard time. Although Miao Bo was not a true resident of Yue County, he was the only ability user in the Yue County base, and the base leader valued his esper ability.

Miao Bo entered the base and headed straight in one direction, where the granary was located. However, it was an empty granary, partitioned into small rooms where many people lived.

Miao Bo walked past the door of a small room, being careful to avoid stepping on landmines along the way. The small rooms were cramped, with many of them lacking windows. To ventilate, the doors were left open, revealing the scenes inside.

Miao Bo stopped at the entrance of a small room with an area of a few square meters. Inside the room was a crude wooden bed, and four shirtless men were playing cards on it. This was the daily routine of the survivors in the base. They stayed in the base every day, finding things to pass the time out of boredom.

The small-eyed man directly across the room was Fang Zhen, whom Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen had been searching for. Wen Qingling had already “seen” him through her spiritual power. He had an ordinary appearance, small eyes, a short stature, and looked somewhat creepy. However, it was precisely this kind of person who was able to manipulate everyone around him.

Miao Bo stood at the doorway and called out, “Fang Zhen.”

Fang Zhen revealed a pair of eights, lifted his eyelids to glance outside the door, and immediately smiled, “Hey, Deputy Team Leader Miao, didn’t you go out with people? Why are you back?”

Miao Bo waved his hand, “Come out, I need to talk to you.”

“Wait a moment, let me finish this round… a pair of Aces!” Fang Zhen finished playing the cards in his hand, excitedly saying, “Sorry, I won again. Let’s settle the bill for today.”

“Hey, you want to leave as soon as you win. That’s not fair.”

Fang Zhen kicked the other person, “You’re losing to me even in pants, and you’re still showing off? Don’t forget, you owe me crystal nuclei.”

“I know, I know, next time I’ll definitely win.”

Fang Zhen pointed at another person and asked, “How much do you owe me?”

“Half a catty of rice… Damn it, I’ve lost three days’ worth of rations.”

Fang Zhen pointed at the three of them, jumped off the bed, and said, “Hurry up, don’t try to cheat me out of my money.” “We know, we won’t leave you hanging.”

Fang Zhen walked out and asked, “What’s the matter?”

When Fang Zhen first met Miao Bo and Fang Shenlong in the Yue County base, he was worried. He was afraid that these two would lead Xiao Hen to them and secretly cause trouble. Fang Zhen had a relative who was highly regarded by the leader and had repeatedly incited and slandered them. The Yue County base leader had never fully trusted Miao Bo and Fang Shenlong. He always had them do all the dirty, tiring, and dangerous tasks.
