The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.
Chapter 56 The Albino Boy
This woman, raising her child alone in this place, must be having a tough time. Her words revealed a lot of helplessness and a resignation to her circumstances.
There are quite a few refugees outside. Ye Xiao, Zhou Qirui, and Liang Kai have a basic understanding of this place.
"mom!"
A somewhat immature yet slightly hoarse voice emerged from behind the crowd.
Ye Xiao and the others quickly turned around and saw a thin, short figure standing at the top of the stairs.
The child looked to be only about 1.2 meters tall, wrapped in a blanket, with his two small legs sticking out below, looking like two sticks with hardly any flesh.
Upon seeing the other person's appearance, everyone immediately understood why the base hadn't accepted this asymptomatic individual.
The child looked sickly, like a bean sprout.
What's most striking is his snow-white hair, pale skin, and red eyes.
This is clearly a characteristic of albinism; this child has a genetic disorder.
The woman immediately walked over to the child, anxiously trying to take him upstairs.
"Yangyang, why did you come down? Are you feeling unwell? Go back and lie down."
"Cough cough, Mom, I want to drink water!"
"Okay, Mom will pour it for you, sweetie! You still have a fever, go back to lie down, don't get up!"
The woman hurriedly led her child upstairs, seemingly unwilling to expose the child to outsiders.
The boy's coughing continued. Old Han glanced at the backpack in his arms, which contained a first-aid kit with some emergency medicines.
However, he didn't dare to move rashly. Instead, he turned to look at Ye Xiao and asked for his opinion.
Ye Xiao didn't look at his backpack, but instead opened the system shop. The medicines were priced the same as in the real world; 10 points could buy 20 amoxicillin pills.
For Ye Xiao, who now has nearly 20 points, these 10 points are nothing.
However, Ye Xiao did not rush to exchange the items, but instead said to the group:
"Let's put our things down and rest for a bit. We haven't had dinner yet. Lao Han, let's get something to eat first. Ask the landlady if she has any tools."
Ye Xiao didn't say anything, so Chen Ge and the others didn't know what to say either. They took off their shoes and went into the room.
The floor was made of various mats pieced together, and a thick carpet was laid underneath.
After putting down his backpack, Chen Ge told Da Hei to rest inside while he and Lao Han went out to borrow a pot from the landlady.
While A-Zhao and Da-Hei were chatting inside, Ye Xiao led Liang Kai and Zhou Qirui out to the living room on the second floor.
"Brother Xiao!"
Zhou Qirui lowered his voice and told Ye Xiao about some of the things Dahei had told him that day.
"From what they said, most of them have become alienated and can only survive by relying on asymptomatic blood inhibitors."
Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow. "No wonder they value asymptomatic individuals so much. Does that mean they'll mutate if they don't receive inhibitors for a period of time?"
Zhou Qirui nodded, "That seems to be the case! I heard that blockers are more effective than inhibitors."
Ye Xiao nodded knowingly, stroking his chin as he realized something.
No wonder the system shop has [Mutation Blocker].
In the system's marketplace, this thing actually has a long name, something like "Original Gene Agent" or something like that.
Ye Xiao couldn't understand it at all. In its description and notes, it was marked with the words "mutation inhibitor", which was very concise.
This thing is actually made using the blood and genomes of ordinary people like them, so it doesn't really belong to this world.
But it is something that this world desperately needs and cherishes!
Ye Xiao glanced at the system shop. There was no limit to the quantity of this item, but the price was a bit expensive, costing 5000 points per item.
He stroked his chin, his eyes darting around, thinking he could discuss with Zhou Qirui, the salesperson, to see if there was any room for maneuver.
Ye Xiao spent 10 points to redeem a box of amoxicillin in the store.
He opened the medicine box, took out the blister pack, and then spread a piece of toilet paper on the table.
I broke the granules out one by one and placed them on a tissue.
Some viewers in the live stream couldn't understand Ye Xiao's actions and were very puzzled by his behavior.
[Uzumaki Superman: What are you planning to do? Why did you create this?]
[Mimi Yako: Is this for the child? Xiao-ge is such a good person.]
[Red Hot: Why put it in a tissue?]
[Black frame: Very good, intelligent, and wary]
[Three Foxes: What does that mean? Can someone explain?]
……
Ye Xiao glanced at the comments in the live stream and whispered:
“These medicines are all from our area, and they have company names and addresses on them, which would raise suspicion.”
These medicine boxes are printed with the pharmaceutical company's address. If anything that clearly doesn't belong to this world appears, it will definitely attract the attention of these people.
Even though Ye Xiao was just a recent college graduate with little social experience, he knew that they came from another world and couldn't easily reveal that.
Ye Xiao put all the amoxicillin into a tissue, handed the medicine box to Liang Kai, and said:
"Go burn this thing, burn it completely!"
Liang Kai nodded and took the medicine box to the bathroom.
Ye Xiao winked at Zhou Qirui, signaling him to come upstairs with him.
The two stepped onto the stairs leading to the third floor. Hearing their footsteps, the woman came out from a room next door.
She stood in the doorway like a guard, blocking the door frame, and asked warily:
"What's wrong with you?"
"Big sister, I've brought you some medicine!"
As he spoke, Ye Xiao opened his palm, revealing two capsules inside.
Zhou Qirui, standing to the side, glanced in surprise at the two capsules that Ye Xiao held in his hand.
It seemed unexpected; he had prepared 20 pills, so why did he only give two?
But he quickly came to his senses and stood silently to the side without saying a word.
"medicine?"
Upon hearing that there was medicine, the woman immediately stepped forward eagerly, looking at the capsule in Ye Xiao's hand.
She was so excited that she didn't know what to do, seemingly wanting to take it but not daring to.
Seeing her like this, Ye Xiao said, "It's an anti-inflammatory, one pill at a time."
The woman immediately reached out and carefully took the capsule into her hand, nodding repeatedly to Ye Xiao and saying thank you.
The woman barely lingered before turning around and quickly entering the house.
"Yangyang, come and drink your medicine."
She picked up her water glass and moved closer to the boy. In the dimly lit room with its yellow oil lamp, the boy with snow-white hair carefully swallowed the pills.
Zhou Qirui stood at the door and spoke to the person inside.
"Big sister, how old are you?"
The woman gave the two people at the door an awkward smile. "It's twelve."
12 years old?
Ye Xiao was quite surprised; he thought she was only 10 years old, since she looked really thin and small.
