: I OPENED A CLINIC IN THE APOCALYPSE

• • •
When Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen arrived at the central square of Xiang County, there were already many people gathered there, all of them excited and causing a noisy commotion. But as soon as Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen appeared, the noisy square immediately quieted down.

The central square was filled with people, and even those who were farther away rushed over as quickly as possible, hoping to be lucky enough to be selected as the first batch of vaccine recipients.

The purpose of gathering everyone had already been conveyed, and all eyes were fixed on Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen.

Wen Qingling raised an eyebrow and said, “You gathered everyone quite fast.”

Chang Boheng’s face turned serious again as he replied, “Everyone wants to be the first to receive the medicine.”

With so many people and the gathering being hastily organized, they didn’t even have a loudspeaker. Chang Boheng arranged for a telepathic ability user with a loud voice to relay messages to Wen Qingling, but Wen Qingling declined, saying that there was no need since everyone could hear him speak.

There were still three vials of antidote left, and Wen Qingling allowed the infected individuals to step forward and choose from among themselves.

The entire scene fell into silence, as surprisingly, no one stepped forward.

Wen Qingling swept his gaze across the crowd and understood what was happening. Apart from the seven people who had just been injured in the battle with the zombies, there were no more infected individuals present… or rather, there might have been some before, but they were no longer here.

In a world full of zombies, there were countless infected individuals at all times. Xiang County Base wouldn’t be without them. It had been some time since Wen Qingling took the zombies from Xiang County Base. The people who were infected before either turned into zombies and were killed or left the base before the transformation occurred.

Any responsible base wouldn’t allow infected individuals inside.

Wen Qingling’s gaze fell on a young girl. The girl bit her lip tightly, tears streaming down silently. Her eyes were swollen from crying, indicating that she had been crying for a long time. Her companions were holding onto her, afraid that she would suddenly speak out or do something extreme.

If not for being noticed, the girl might have been able to endure. But when Wen Qingling looked at her, she instantly broke into tears, causing panic among her companions who hurriedly tried to console her. Some even tried to cover her mouth.

The girl broke free from her companions and suddenly cried out, “Lord Wen, I heard that you treat the zombies in the southern city well, is it true?”

Everyone turned to look at the girl who was sobbing. Some whispered among themselves, questioning if the girl had gone mad. What good could it do to be kind to zombies? Would they be spared from being eaten or infected?

The girl cried, “My father got infected. He didn’t want to burden me or make things difficult for the base, so he went to the southern city himself. He wanted to become a zombie in the southern city. Will you treat the zombies in the southern city well?”

The girl fell to her knees, crying loudly, “I beg you, please be kind to them, be kind to my father, don’t let him be killed or eaten by things…”

She had thought about pleading with Lord Wen to save her father, but her father’s injuries were too severe. He didn’t even have time to return to the base, and they didn’t have enough crystal nuclei. Even if they borrowed some, it would take time, and they simply didn’t have enough time!
