Chapter 323: 186 Hypocrisy (Second Update)_2

Just who did she think she was, acting so accusatory?

A man glared at Lin Feiyin coldly and spoke in a chilling tone, "When the zombies are attacking the city, they won’t consider whether or not they are disturbing the people!" After he spoke, he pushed against the door forcefully!

Lin Feiyin, being a woman with a Mutated Water Element Awakening and not a strength enhancement, did not have the physical strength to compare with him. Thus, when the man pushed, she staggered backward.

Her dissatisfaction grew, and she shouted, "Don’t forget who I am! Aren’t you afraid I’ll report you to your superior for offending me?"

The man was already irritated, a combatant himself who, after fighting off zombies, simply wanted a good sleep. Hurriedly handling his tasks, he then received numerous complaints about stolen goods and Crystal Cores!

As a result, he couldn’t sleep and had to lead a team to search house by house, feeling his ire mount!

Lin Feiyin chose perhaps the worst moment to flaunt her status as a doctor; how could he possibly hold back?

He stooped slightly, looking down at Lin Feiyin, and roared angrily, "You still remember you’re a doctor? Where were you when so many injured people needed you? Huh? Aren’t you a doctor? Why didn’t you go to save people after receiving the notice?"

"I..." Lin Feiyin did not expect his retort, feeling a pang of guilt before swiftly regaining her composure and defending herself stoutly, "I also wanted to go help, but there were people here who needed my protection! How could I abandon them? All lives are equal; the lives of the injured are lives, aren’t the lives here lives too? There are so many doctors in the Safe Zone, wouldn’t it be fine without one more? There are other doctors to tend to the injured, but they only have me! If I left, who would protect them?"

The man did not expect Lin Feiyin to boldly argue back, especially her statement that "all people are equal," which he found contemptible. So, he scoffed dismissively, "Since you believe all people are equal, why did you just ask if I knew your identity? Humph!"

With that, he ordered, "Search! See if there’s anything suspicious!"

His subordinates, also simmering with anger, glared at Lin Feiyin as they purposefully made a great deal of noise during the search, leaving the house in disarray until they finally reported to him, "Captain, there’s nothing suspicious!"

With a wave of his hand and one last cold glance at Lin Feiyin, he led his men out. Once outside, someone cautiously inquired, "Captain, there are two seriously injured people inside, shouldn’t we help them?"

He shook his head, a cold smirk tugging at his mouth, "If they’re associated with that Lin woman, why should we care?"

After saying this, he strode away from the site, with his men exchanging looks before hurrying to follow.

Inside, Shen Xi, overhearing this, suddenly had a bad premonition. They had been rescued by that man only to be deliberately handed over to Lin Feiyin, and he had originally thought that with her credentials as a doctor, finding a Wood Element Superpower User to treat their injuries would be simple.

However, he did not anticipate that Lin Feiyin would manage to offend the military so thoroughly! This probably meant that those Wood Element Superpower Users would no longer respect her!

What were they to do now?

He hesitated momentarily and then feigned weakness, "I’m sorry, I didn’t think it would still affect you like this... cough, cough... if it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have been blamed... cough, cough, cough..."

Seeing him in distress, Lin Feiyin immediately went to rub his chest to ease his breathing. However, as soon as she touched him, Shen Xi’s face turned deathly pale, "Don’t... splurt!"

Shen Xi’s ribs were fractured, but fortunately, none of the broken bones had punctured a lung lobe. However, Lin Feiyin’s action had caused a bone fragment to puncture inwards!

Thankfully, Lin Feiyin didn’t use much force, and she quickly realized something was wrong with him and stopped; otherwise, Shen Xi’s life could have been in jeopardy!

His previous coughing had been feigned, but now with an injured lung lobe, even shallowly punctured, it was incredibly painful. Each breath he took was agony!

He glared furiously at Lin Feiyin, unable to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

Lin Feiyin was taken aback and instinctively took a step back. Seeing her reaction, Shen Xi immediately regretted his impulse.

He shouldn’t have been so rash! His injuries still needed Lin Feiyin’s attention, and if she became wary or saw through his thoughts, both he and Shen Xin’s lives would be in danger!

However, as he watched Lin Feiyin anxiously, he saw her initial wariness quickly turn back into concern and self-reproach.

She looked heartbroken, reproaching herself, "It’s all my fault... Is your condition getting worse?"

Shen Xi said nothing; he found it difficult to breathe now, and if he tried to speak, he might actually start coughing blood. He silently watched her, his gaze softening, quickly enveloping Lin Feiyin in his presence.

Lin Feiyin instantly felt even more guilty, her hands unsure where to rest, wanting to check Shen Xi’s injuries but fearing she might hurt him again.

She cried out in panic, "What do I do? How can I save you? Tell me!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it with a recommendation ticket or monthly ticket at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
