After He Xuzhou left, Cheng Ling naturally wouldn't stay, leaving only Pei Yu and Bai Ran in the room.
He took a chair and sat slightly far away from Bai Ran's bed, waiting for her to wake up. As for the distance between the two of them that could fit three Bai Ran, it was just to make Bai Ran no longer feel uncomfortable. .
Ever since he heard Bairan's explanation, he would take the initiative to leave some space between himself and her. Physical illness is a very painful thing. It is an existence that is difficult to escape despite trying to struggle. It is always good to make her feel more comfortable. .
Bai Ran fell into a coma for a long time. When she regained consciousness and opened her eyelids tremblingly, her eyes were staring directly at the high ceiling. Looking sideways, she saw Pei Yu, who was drowsy with his chin propped up on his palm and his eyes closed.
What's wrong with her?
Pulling her memory back a few hours ago, she remembered that she had made a fortune from Cheng Ling and was about to leave when her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.
Bai Ran: System? What's wrong with me?
System: o(╥﹏╥)oRanzi, you scared me to death! A red exclamation mark and warning text suddenly appeared on my program panel. I thought you had ascended to heaven.
System: Fortunately, it’s not the case. I checked and found that you fainted due to high-intensity contact with people.
Bairan: No matter how serious it used to be, it was just vomiting.
System: Yes, for this reason we have applied for a comprehensive examination of your body. It's because of drinking. Although it can temporarily eliminate the social fear response, the body will be under greater pressure subsequently, leading to nerve overload and syncope. Don’t do this next time, your health is the most important thing.
After hearing the system's explanation, Bai Ran became more and more irritated. Before she came to the end of the world, she would use this method to suppress the panic in her heart when she encountered some occasions that she had to attend and conversations that she had to have. She didn't like the feeling of falling off the chain. .
Others can't understand it. They think it's social fear. It's just an Internet term. It's just a bit introverted. I really can't talk to others normally? Is it really impossible to speak in public? Just pretend.
But only those who actually have this symptom understand that it is actually quite painful.
Some introverts, those who are not as serious as her, and people with social fears may not be able to understand her sorrow. She went to see a psychiatrist and took medicine, but the side effects were too strong. She could not sleep all night and her hair fell out. Stop and switch to psychological counseling. It is effective in the short term, but it only lasts for two or three days. It may even bottom out if the frequency is high.
What the doctor means is that you should take it step by step, find a few good friends to enlighten you, and you will slowly get better.
But people around her came and went, and no one could stand her character.
Finally, I discovered that drinking a little wine can temporarily suppress me. Now I can't even drink wine. Bai Ran smiled helplessly, what else can I do? I'm really alone.
Perhaps her laughter was too obvious in the quiet room. Pei Yu, who was holding his head, suddenly woke up, blinked his eyes, and said happily, "Ranran, you're awake! Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Did you faint because of social anxiety?" Pei Yu thought for a long time while guarding Bai Ran. Cheng Ling said that it was an ordinary fainting. After thinking about it, it can only be related to the personality of social anxiety. After all, last time He even made Bai Ran vomit.
She was so close to Cheng Ling and He Xuzhou today. To be honest, he was shocked when he came in. He thought he was the only one who had to stay away from Bai Ran.
Bairan nodded. She looked at the series of changes in Pei Yu's expressions, as if she saw an obedient dog waiting for its owner to come home. She said a few more difficult words, "I used to drink a small amount of alcohol, and at important moments... I suppressed my fear, but unexpectedly I fainted this time."
"Then you can't do this next time! I talk a lot. If you have anything, ask me to negotiate! Although sometimes I talk a lot and it's useless, but sometimes I can still help." Pei Yu said seriously. I don’t feel like this sentence is slandering me at all.
Bai Ran curled his lips and said, "Pei Yu."
"exist!"
"Did you feel like there was something on your head?"
"Huh?" Pei Yu was a little confused and reached out to touch his head. There was nothing there except hair.
Bai Ran coughed lightly, and there was clearly... a pair of pricked up dog ears.
If her parents had given her a cute and lively brother, maybe her personality would not be like this.
But there is no if.
Her parents could not give birth to such an optimistic and cheerful child.
…
After repairing in the room for a while, Bairan proposed to go out to the store. Pei Yu did not agree at first and hoped that she would rest for a while, but Bairan refused.
She didn’t want to stay in a tacky rose-red bedroom, and more importantly, how to open source.
He Xuzhou placed four more orders with her, each worth up to 6,000 brain coins, so she was easily promoted to lv2, but it was precisely because of this upgrade that she realized that the differences between each level were not the same. , it takes 30,000 brains to go from lv1 to lv2, but it takes 300,000 to upgrade from lv2 to lv3.
A leap that is incredible and even impossible to achieve in the short term.
Bai Ran was shocked and checked the system many times before accepting this result.
The words the system said at that time still echoed in her ears: Ranranzi, you have to know that there are 12 billion people in the world before the end of the world. The casualties in the end of the world are immeasurable, but most people will either become zombies or aliens. For those who are capable, only a small number of human beings are not infected and still live a meager existence.
The system didn't say anything further, but she suddenly understood the number of zombies she needed to face.
The system once said that it needed to remove the zombie brains because the only way to completely kill the zombies was to remove their brain stems. At the same time, to restore order to the world and rebuild civilization, scavengers are needed. Neither broken nor established, Nirvana is reborn.
Bai Ran was horrified, even if there were only 10% zombies.
She was faced with quantities of over 100 million.
Can the Galaxy Base kill tens of thousands of zombies? Can it kill hundreds of millions?
She must combine all available forces, otherwise she may be unable to do without this "game" for the rest of her life.
After returning to the shop, Pei Yu reheated the cold chicken soup and put it on the coffee table in Bairan's lounge. Looking at her troubled expression, he wanted to ask, but he heard someone shouting at the door, "Is there anyone here? These are How to sell things.”
Pei Yu could only suppress those words and left the lounge first.
There were two people standing at the door, a man and a woman. The man looked a little embarrassed, while the woman looked very comfortable. Their clothes were stained with blood and covered with dust.
The woman, who was probably in her early thirties, asked, "How are these things sold?"
"Zombie brain, every item has a price."
Upon hearing this, both of them showed doubts and shock expressions without exception, and Pei Yu was used to it.
After all, using zombie brains as currency is unbelievable no matter where it is placed.
"Okay." After knowing this, the two of them walked out, preparing to hunt zombies.
"Wait." Bai Ran came out of the rest room and waved to Pei Yu.
"You two, these are the owners of our store, please wait a moment." Pei Yu smiled at them, and then ran quickly into the lounge.
