She has hundreds of thousands of supernatural powers, but she always says she is weak.
Chapter 33 A New Beginning, a New Life
"Sizzle..." The sharp sound of boiling water brought Zuo Xiuyan back from his thoughts.
She poured some of the water into the cup and the rest into the thermos.
Watching the mist dissipate and listening to the sound of water hitting the bottom of the bottle and then gradually rising and turning dull, the desolation on her face gradually faded away.
“It’s good to be alive.”
Can see, hear, feel...
I still have a healthy body.
She is a contented person.
Just treat it as a new way of life that you have never experienced before, and start over in this world.
Zuo Xiuyan walked towards the bedroom, ready to get some clean clothes and take a bath.
As soon as I entered, I saw the conspicuous plastic wardrobe. It was crooked and it seemed that it was not stable.
When I opened the closet door, I saw only a few clothes that looked relatively new and brightly colored.
Most of the clothes inside are black and have been worn for seven or eight years. Although there are no holes, they are obviously ill-fitting and have bulges at the elbows.
A shirt, pants, jacket and underwear can all be folded up and fit into just one compartment.
Zuo Xiuyan picked up a set at random and went to the bathroom.
The inside was even simpler, with a toothbrush holder and a bottle of shampoo on the shelf, and a hard, pilled and discolored towel hanging on a hook.
Zuo Xiuyan put the clothes and bracelet on the first layer of the shelf, walked to the side and turned on the shower with cold water.
She subconsciously filled the basin beside her with cold water.
Well, is it purely the original owner's muscle memory? Usually, this water is used to mop the floor or do other things, which is very economical.
When I was taking a shower, I found a lot of large bruises on my body. They hurt a lot when touched. My back must be pretty bad too.
It took her less than 15 minutes to get dressed and come out. There was really nothing to wash.
There was no hair dryer at home, so after she had dried her hair almost completely with a towel, she kept scratching it with her hands, trying to make her hair dry faster.
Zuo Xiuyan walked into the kitchen, put his mouth close to the cup and blew gently, then drank the warm water bit by bit.
I went back to the bedroom and lay down on the bed. The checkered bed sheet looked like the country color scheme that was popular decades ago, and it looked old and stiff.
She covered herself with the lumpy quilt, let out a long sigh, and felt that she could finally rest in peace.
I had eaten at the restaurant and wasn't hungry, my body just felt tired and sore from the intense fight.
Her mind had already become somewhat confused after the series of stimulations.
Before he could think more, he fell asleep.
……
What woke her up the next day was not the sunlight, but the cry of her bladder.
Get up quickly to calm this restlessness.
The sky outside the window was gray. I looked at my bracelet and it was just past 5 o'clock.
Zuo Xiuyan packed up everything, washed up, and changed the medicine on her hands. She walked into the living room, put the combat suit box on the sofa and opened it.
In addition to neatly stacked black clothes and shoes, there are also some accessories.
The clothes are divided into two sets, the inner layer is a tight-fitting long-sleeved trousers, while the outer layer is a loose-fitting zipper jacket and trousers with cuffs.
There are several pockets on the coat and trousers for storing some supplies.
The size of the clothes will be determined based on the awakened person's body data when they are purchased, so there is no need to worry about the size not fitting.
After putting on her clothes, the bracelet indicated that her mental level had increased by 60 points.
Zuo Xiuyan took out the belt and as soon as he passed it through the buckle, it automatically tightened to the appropriate size.
He took the dagger from the table, connected the hanging buckle on the scabbard to the belt, and then hung the small storage bag.
He put on his military boots, tucked his trouser legs into the boots, and turned the slightly raised coin-sized knob on the side to tighten the shoelaces.
Zuo Xiuyan raised her hand to tie her shoulder-length hair into a ponytail and walked towards the full-length mirror in the living room.
The person in the mirror looked 90% similar to her in her previous life.
The original owner always lowered his head, but now he raised it and looked straight ahead. His gentle eyebrows and eyes, however, had a hint of strength because of his sharp gaze.
Her shoulders, which were always tight, have now expanded. Combined with her smart outfit, she looks more dignified and heroic.
The weapon at her waist made her feel somewhat dangerous and kept away from strangers.
Zuo Xiuyan looked at everything in the mirror for a long time without moving. In a trance, it seemed as if the two people were gradually merging.
She smiled, slowly placed her hand on the mirror, and said softly:
"Hello... Zuo Xiuyan."
From now on, I am you and you are me.
……
After taking some necessary items, she carried the medical kit out of the community, sat down at a nearby steamed bun shop that had just opened, and ordered a basket of buns and a bowl of soy milk.
"Is that Xiao Zuo? Wait a minute." The boss shouted from the kitchen. Soon, she came out with a steamer in one hand and soy milk in the other.
As soon as she put the food on the table, she froze.
"Oh, I'm sorry, little girl. I think your voice sounds familiar. I'm sorry..." The old lady smiled embarrassedly, then spoke slower and slower, and began to look up and down in confusion, "Hey? It looks like Xiao Zuo to me?"
"I'm."
The old lady clapped her hands and said, "Oh my goodness, he's so handsome!"
"I didn't recognize you at first when you were wearing this dress. But with your hair tied up, you look much more energetic! You look good, girl!" The old lady nodded frequently and even sat across the table.
"Thank you, Auntie. I have something else to do, so I'll eat first." Zuo Xiuyan thanked her with a smile and picked up the chopsticks.
She didn't have time to chat; time was running out.
Every day at the hour, the processing bureau would send a vehicle to the wilderness, and she planned to catch the earliest one that departed at 6 o'clock.
"Eat slowly. If you don't have enough, ask auntie for more."
"Okay." Zuo Xiuyan nodded, still smiling, and started eating seriously.
But the old lady didn't leave. Instead, she sat at the table and continued, "You've worked so hard, getting up so early in the morning and running so far to go to the university. The school is really bad, the accommodation fee is so expensive, isn't this a complete rip-off? How nice it would be if you could live in the school so you don't have to travel back and forth."
"Be careful on the road later. I heard that things are not peaceful here recently. It seems that there have been a lot of unusual incidents in the area next to you, causing many stores to close. I really hope nothing happens here, otherwise how can I make money?"
Zuo Xiuyan responded to her gaze and nodded, without stopping eating the buns.
The old lady continued to mutter about various little things. After a while, Zuo Xiuyan finished his meal and stood up to pay.
"Hey! No more, no more!" The old lady came forward and blocked the cash register with her hands, "Are you being so formal with your aunt? It's not easy for you, a little girl. Wait until you graduate and make money, then give it to me. I'll treat you to dinner today."
"Save some money and dress yourself up nicely. Auntie will be happy to see you."
"It's okay, Auntie. I've found a job now and I can get a salary." Zuo Xiu said softly.
The lady in this shop helped the original owner a lot and often invited her to dinner. She was considered to be someone the original owner was quite familiar with and close to.
In addition to treating her to meals, the lady would also give her some clothes, fruits and delicious snacks from time to time.
Those brightly colored, relatively new clothes in the closet were given to me by this lady.
"Oh, you found a job! Okay, okay, but don't work too hard and delay your studies. This is different from meal money. The auntie who should be treated should treat you. Just consider it as congratulations on finding a job."
"Auntie, I should still give you this money. How about we pick a day when you are free, and I will cook you a meal. We can get together and chat, and it can be considered a formal celebration."
"Okay, okay, little girl, you never responded when I talked to you before. Today you took the initiative to find me, and I'm happy. Okay, okay, you've really grown up."
Zuo Xiuyan picked up the medical kit, immediately set the payment amount, put it on, and ran away quickly.
The lady who was cleaning the table heard the announcement from the counter:
"Your personal merchant account has received 888 yuan."
The old lady's face changed, she quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks, ran out and chased after him: "Xiao Zuo, you made a mistake with the money!"
"That's right!" After responding loudly, Zuo Xiuyan also ran around the corner.
"Oh! This child!" The old lady saw her disappear and couldn't catch up. She stamped her feet and went back to the store. "I'll give it back to her next time she comes."
……
For Zuo Xiuyan, this money can be regarded as repaying a favor, fulfilling the kindness that the original owner had always wanted to repay.
How could the help that the old lady had given the original owner be measured by a few hundred dollars? But this was also one of the few savings that the original owner had. In the future, he could make money in the awakened organization, so he didn't have to worry about not having enough money to spend.
Who has an easy life? Since life is not rich, how many people are willing to lend a helping hand to others?
Good people should be rewarded.
