Zhang Li looked at Li Nan's face and then thoughtfully patted his shoulder, "Brother, thank you for your hard work!"
Li Nan grinned, wanting to laugh but unable to do so. His own situation was not good either; having been infected by a Zombie, he would eventually become one himself. Therefore, before he transformed, Li Nan wanted to accomplish as much as possible.
Li Nan picked up the semi-conscious Liu Ziming and said to the collapsed Mo Xiaohui, "Miss Mo, let's go!"
Mo Xiaohui hesitated, staring at Li Nan. Clearly, she was greatly frightened and stimulated, remaining in a half-dazed, half-awake state. "Where are we going?"
Li Nan forced a smile, "To a safe place!"
Mo Xiaohui showed no signs of doubt and immediately stood up. However, when her bare feet touched the floor, a sudden chill rushed over her, causing her to gasp inwardly.
Seeing this, Li Nan took off Liu Ziming's shoes and threw them in front of Mo Xiaohui. "These are military rubber boots; they might be a bit big, but if you tighten the straps, it should be fine!"
Mo Xiaohui looked at the green rubber boots that were several sizes too large but showed no sign of rejection. She bent down and put them on.
When Mo Xiaohui came to find Li Nan tonight, she was wearing high heels and black stockings, along with a professional short skirt suit and a strapless top.
Li Nan intentionally raised his head because when Mo Xiaohui bent down to put on her shoes, a glimpse of white revealed itself like two rabbits ready to spring!
To be honest, if it weren't for Gao Xue's unknown whereabouts, Li Nan might have been tempted to tease such a beauty in front of him. However, after experiencing so much in the Underground Morgue, he was already exhausted. Most importantly, he had been infected by a Zombie; it was better not to cause trouble for others!
With everything uncertain, the nine people had split into two groups. Li Nan carried Liu Ziming and led Mo Xiaohui to search for medicine while Zhang Li and Han Guang along with six others headed straight to the tenth floor to use the Liquid Nitrogen Tank to eliminate the Zombies.
Just before heading upstairs, Zhang Li seriously said to Li Nan, "Take good care of my brother! This is a Bayonet; keep it for self-defense!"
Li Nan waved his hand. "No need; I have this!"
Zhang Li looked and saw that Li Nan was holding a twenty-centimeter-long surgical knife. "Is this okay?"
"A surgical knife is still a knife; doctors can also fight monsters and kill people. Of course it's fine!" Li Nan said seriously.
During their time in Underground Level Two, Liu Heping had fled in panic without a trace, leaving behind his surgical knife in the medicine storage room, which Li Nan had picked up.
Zhang Li laughed heartily. "That's good; I won't insist then!"
In the midst of their conversation, Li Nan had already ascended the stairs on the east side, while Zhang Li and the others were heading up from the north.
Due to their different destinations, the routes taken by Li Nan and Zhang Li's group were not the same.
Li Nan was looking for medication to alleviate Liu Ziming's condition and needed to go to Radiology for a full-body examination to determine his current status. Therefore, he had to take the east staircase up to the 7th floor's Radiology Department and pharmacy, while Zhang Li and his group were headed to the 10th floor's Hot Water Room for a grueling battle. Thus, their paths diverged, preventing them from going together.
Mo Xiaohui tightly held onto Li Nan's right hand, fearing that he might suddenly disappear. Li Nan felt a pang in his heart, wondering how Gao Xue was doing at that moment.
Carrying Liu Ziming on his back and with Mo Xiaohui by his side, Li Nan hurriedly climbed the stairs.
According to Li Nan's understanding, although most Zombies should be congregating around the 10th floor's Hot Water Room due to heat attraction, there should still be a few remaining on the other floors. However, he believed that it wouldn't pose much of a problem, which is why he boldly ventured alone to the 7th floor.
Uncertain about Liu Ziming's current condition, Li Nan didn't dare to move too quickly to avoid causing any jolting injuries. Additionally, Mo Xiaohui was not particularly fast either, so their pace was quite slow.
Li Nan wondered if it was due to an improvement in his physical condition; despite carrying a man weighing over a hundred pounds, he felt no strain at all and moved lightly up the stairs.
He found it quite strange that after experiencing so much underground without much rest or replenishment of water and food, he still had energy left.
Even without considering various expenditures, in his usual best condition, he wouldn't have been able to achieve half of what he was doing now—let alone carrying a living person; it would have been good enough just to climb without gasping for breath!
Li Nan indeed sensed some changes within his body but attributed it to being infected by Zombies and nearing some kind of illness. As he became aware of these conditions, he feared that time was running out and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
"Ah..." Mo Xiaohui let out a soft grunt as she fell to the ground, her knees hitting the steps heavily.
Li Nan frowned. "Miss Mo, are you alright?"
Mo Xiaohui gritted her teeth against the pain. "I'm fine, I'm fine. I can keep going!"
Her left hand never let go of Li Nan's right hand; her world had already collapsed, and this man was her only support. No matter what happened, she would not release her grip!
Li Nan helped Mo Xiaohui up and noticed that both of her knees were scraped and bleeding.
"Excuse me!" Li Nan immediately reached toward Mo Xiaohui's thigh.
"What are you going to do?" Mo Xiaohui asked, slightly panicked.
Under normal circumstances, a woman's questioning is never as quick as a man's actions, so while Mo Xiaohui was surprised by Li Nan's large hands, Li Nan had already succeeded.
When his palm touched Mo Xiaohui's thigh, he felt a delicate coolness. Although there was still a layer of black stockings on the outside, it did not affect the sensation at all.
Li Nan did not have time to tease the beautiful woman in front of him. After making contact, he forcefully tore open Mo Xiaohui's black stockings. "This material has good elasticity; it's perfect for wrapping your knee injury. The hospital environment is strange, and wounds exposed to the air can easily become infected by zombies due to contamination, so... I apologize for the intrusion!"
Upon hearing Li Nan's explanation, Mo Xiaohui was taken aback. She had thought this man was going to do something to her. But then she realized that in such an environment, who would have those kinds of thoughts!
Li Nan was in a hurry, so all his movements were swift and efficient. In just a few seconds, Mo Xiaohui's knee injury was already bandaged.
Mo Xiaohui softly said, "Thank you!"
Li Nan was not polite and immediately took hold of Mo Xiaohui's left hand, rushing upstairs.
Mo Xiaohui felt a flutter in her heart, but given the current situation, it wasn't the time to be overly concerned. Rather than daydreaming, it was better to think about how she could avoid being a burden!
