Only then did everyone notice the two distinct wounds on Shen Yiyue's legs.
There was a severe gash on her calf that had torn through her pants, with blood soaking the wound area.
Most suspicious was her ankle, where there was a somewhat circular wound with torn socks, very much resembling a bite mark.
At once, the schoolchildren, Teacher Zhang, and the two who had just entered all changed their expressions simultaneously.
"Damn it! I told you not to randomly open doors to rescue people!"
Fatty Zhao, who had just been upset, wouldn't miss such a good opportunity and immediately started berating Teacher Zhang.
Sun Jiao acted like a frightened damsel and quickly hid behind Fatty Zhao.
Teacher Zhang's face turned ashen, unable to argue back, after all, if someone had truly been bitten, they would turn into a zombie before long.
The students nearby, who had just been enjoying their snacks in happiness, were now startled and all retreated to the corners.
Keeping far away from Shen Yiyue.
Many of their classmates had turned into zombies after being bitten, and they had witnessed it all clearly.
Ning Yu suddenly spoke up:
"Sister Yue was cut by glass on the road, you're all misunderstanding!"
But Fatty Zhao wouldn't believe it at all, shouting:
"Stop lying! That wound on her ankle is definitely a bite! Do you think we're stupid?"
He pointed his finger between Ning Yu and Shen Yiyue, wavering between them:
"Both of you get out of here! Stop endangering everyone!"
Teacher Zhang wanted to say something, after all, the two had just helped his students.
But if she had really been bitten, it would obviously pose a threat to his students and everyone taking shelter here.
He remained silent.
Seeing that they couldn't fool anyone, Ning Yu gave Shen Yiyue a meaningful look.
Shen Yiyue immediately drew her knife and held it in front of her, the blade still covered in zombie blood.
Ning Yu made no move, just innocently staying close to Shen Yiyue.
Seeing that violence might break out, the atmosphere instantly became tense. Teacher Zhang quickly ran to his students' side to prevent them from getting caught in the crossfire.
But his eyes were fixed on Ning Yu, who appeared harmless.
He hadn't noticed earlier, but where had her red knife gone? It was nowhere to be seen.
He hadn't forgotten what happened when they opened the door earlier.
Although Shen Yiyue was the one holding a knife now, he knew clearly that if Ning Yu were to act, perhaps no one alive would remain.
Fortunately, the conflict wasn't centered here, and as long as he protected his students, they should be safe.
He just wasn't sure if that girl, Shen Yiyue, had really been bitten by a zombie.
When Fatty Zhao saw they were ready to fight, he became nervous, his expression awkward, as he hadn't brought any weapons when he came to the activity room.
At this point, Ning Yu spoke again:
"If you don't believe us, you can lock us up for half a day, then you'll know."
"We'll stay together."
Hearing this, Teacher Zhang knew there was a way to defuse the situation, and he quickly tried to ease the tension, saying:
"There's a storage room in the back that can be locked, I trust them!"
Since Ning Yu offered to be locked up with the supposedly bitten girl, she must be confident that the girl hadn't been bitten.
Hearing this, Fatty Zhao seemed to have nothing left to argue about.
Seeing they had weapons and weren't pushovers, he feared an actual conflict.
Since they were willing to be locked up, wouldn't they be harming themselves if they really turned into zombies?
So, with some displeasure, he gave another look at Teacher Zhang and the two girls, and Fatty Zhao meaningfully said:
"Fine then, Teacher Zhang, make sure you lock them up properly, your students are all here after all!"
After saying this, he turned and left with Sun Jiao.
Teacher Zhang gave the two an apologetic smile, but his eyes once again deliberately swept over Shen Yiyue's wounds.
The leg injury was indeed a cut, but the ankle wound, no matter how he looked at it, seemed like a bite.
But there was nothing he could do now, they couldn't fight them off or drive them away.
Since they were willing to prove themselves by being locked up for half a day, this was the only option.
Ning Yu held Shen Yiyue's hand, appearing docile as they followed Teacher Zhang to the storage room at the very back.
It seemed no one had been there for a long time, as there was quite a bit of dust.
Teacher Zhang very kindly brought a cloth and broom, cleaned the room briefly, and then let the two enter.
Before leaving and locking the door, he said once more:
"I'm really sorry about this, I'll definitely come to open the door in the evening!"
Then he locked the door with the key and left.
Hearing the footsteps fade away, Ning Yu's pretense of docility disappeared, returning to her usual indifference.
This lock, or even this door, posed no obstacle to her at all - she could easily cut through it with her crimson blade.
However, this was perfect for clearing their suspicions and allowing them to continue staying in the gymnasium to complete their mission.
Taking out a medical kit from her storage space, Ning Yu prepared to treat Shen Yiyue's wounds.
Shen Yiyue cooperatively rolled up her pant leg and asked:
"I've already taken that medicine, so I won't turn into a zombie, right?"
Although she fully trusted Ning Yu, this was her first time being bitten by a zombie, and she felt somewhat uneasy.
Ning Yu, while helping clean and disinfect the wound, casually replied:
"You will~"
"Oh, I thought so... Wait, what??"
Shen Yiyue was dumbfounded, not expecting Ning Yu to say that.
Then she quickly realized and said, both embarrassed and angry:
"You little brat, who taught you to tease me like this?!"
She made as if to punch the annoying little loli with her fists.
However, the little loli easily dodged her punches without even pausing in treating the wound.
The bite wound on her leg wasn't too bad and could be treated simply.
However, the gash on her leg from the butcher's hook was quite deep - that weapon was truly terrifying, to have such power even after being deflected.
"Bear with it, this is going to hurt."
After disinfecting the cut, it needed stitches, and Ning Yu showed the needle to Shen Yiyue.
But Shen Yiyue had always been quite tough; she immediately gritted her teeth with a martyred expression and nodded.
Without anesthesia, getting stitches was very painful, and cold sweat immediately broke out on her forehead as Ning Yu worked.
Finally finished with the treatment, Ning Yu put away the medical kit.
"Little Yu, what do we do next?"
Shen Yiyue lowered her pant leg and asked about their subsequent plans.
"We'll stay here for two days until your wound heals."
And complete the two missions while we're at it, Ning Yu added mentally.
One was the mission to kill the butcher, and the other was the gymnasium mission.
"Okay, good."
Shen Yiyue nodded in agreement, though her face showed some hesitation:
"Did I... hold you back today?"
She was concerned about her performance and whether she had truly helped Ning Yu.
"No, stop overthinking it, you did well today."
"Besides, we ran into that monster today, that's why you got hurt."
If they hadn't suddenly encountered the butcher, the two would have probably reached the gymnasium unharmed. That kind of monster wasn't something ordinary humans could handle.
Ning Yu delivered a light chop to Shen Yiyue's head with her small hand, immediately stopping her overthinking.
The points from the zombies she killed today had all been credited to Ning Yu's score, much to Ning Yu's delight.
Though Shen Yiyue herself had no idea about this.
Hearing Ning Yu's words, Shen Yiyue immediately cheered up.
But she quickly became playful again:
"Aww~! I'm injured, Little Yu's energy is low, I need a hug to recharge!"
"Get lost."
The little loli immediately rolled her eyes, not wanting to deal with this idiot.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
