My cells devour all worlds.

Hearing the sound from outside the door, Yu Qingxuan and Yu Qingyi exchanged a glance, subconsciously picked up a black cloth from the side and covered the potted plant with the strange fruit, then carefully pushed it under the bed.

"Bang bang bang!"

The door shook more and more violently; if it weren't for something blocking it, it would probably have been pushed open by now.

The person outside seemed to be losing patience, and their voice grew increasingly anxious, "Damn it, can't you hear me? Get out here right now!"

Yu Qingxuan's heart skipped a beat. She gripped the sharp knife in her hand tightly and tried to calm her tone as she spoke:

"Who is it? What do you want? Please come during the day if you need to see a doctor."

"Damn it, the captain would be dead by daytime, let me break it open."

The rough voice rang out again, but was quickly drowned out by another voice.

"Tiger, don't be impulsive!"

Then, the man spoke into the room:

"Dr. Yu, we mean no harm. We are from the nearby Flying Eagle Squad."

"Our captain was accidentally slashed by a ferocious beast outside the city. The wound is deep and bleeding profusely. Only you can treat it here. Please help us. We are willing to pay ten Hope Coins."

Ferocious beasts are awakened animals, and like awakened beings, they possess strange abilities and are extremely dangerous to deal with.

As for Hope Coins, they are the official currency of Hope Gathering Places. A single point can purchase an energy bar sufficient to supply one person's daily activity needs.

If used sparingly, it can last for half a month.

So it was them.

Yu Qingxuan recalled some of her impressions and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

She gave Yu Qingyi a reassuring look, then picked up her medicine box and walked towards the door.

"They're here."

As she spoke, she slowly moved the heavy object behind the door, opening it a crack.

Yu Qingxuan first glanced at the four people at the door.

One of them immediately assured, "Dr. Yu, don't worry. As long as you treat our captain's wound, we promise we won't do anything to you."

Yu Qingxuan nodded silently, then pushed open the door and went out.

She simply couldn't refuse.

Before anyone else could look over, Yu Qingxuan had already closed the door. "They're outside, right? Where are they?"

The group quickly stepped back, revealing the figure on the makeshift stretcher behind them.

The person on the stretcher was pale and had their eyes closed, clearly having lost consciousness.

Yu Qingxuan squatted down and untied the blood-soaked cloth strip on the man's chest, revealing several wounds, as if he had been scratched by something.

It was the length of a palm, deep enough to see the bone, with flesh turned inside out and blood still oozing out.

Some blood-soaked medicinal powder was sprinkled around the wound.

Yu Qingxuan's expression remained unchanged. She calmly took out a clean cotton cloth from the medicine box, wiped the wound clean, and then took out a needle and thread to sew the wound up stitch by stitch.

The bleeding stopped somewhat, but it was still slowly seeping out.

Yu Qingxuan put away her needle and thread. "I've already stitched up the wound, but I don't have any medicine to stop the bleeding."

"It's alright, we have our own."

The man glanced at the finely stitched wound and nodded in satisfaction.

With a wave of his hand, someone immediately took out a medicine bottle and applied medicine to the captain on the stretcher.

He reached into his pocket, counted out a few Hope Coins, counted them twice, and stuffed them into Yu Qingxuan's medicine box.

"Dr. Yu, I've left the money here as promised. Sorry to bother you tonight."

Yu Qingxuan hummed in agreement, watched the four people carry the patient away, and then picked up her medicine box and returned to her room.

As soon as she entered, she bumped into Yu Qingyi, who was hiding behind the door with a knife. Her eyes were filled with worry. "Sister, they didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Yu Qingxuan shook her head and breathed a sigh of relief. "It's alright, they're still keeping their word."

The two of them had to use something to firmly barricade the door before they could feel a little more at ease.

Even though they pay rent for this house, those people don't care about their lives at all; they only show up when it's time to collect the money each month.

Their safety depends on themselves.

"Sis, go wash your hands."

Yu Qingyi brought over a basin of clean water.

"it is good."

Yu Qingxuan put her hands into the water and rubbed them vigorously to clean the bloodstains off them.

Then, he carefully dragged the potted plant with the strange fruit out from under the bed and carefully examined it under the black cloth.

Seeing that the fruit was undamaged, Yu Qingxuan was finally relieved.

This is their chance to change their fate, so she can't afford to be careless.

Yu Qingxuan stared at the hint of green on the top of the two exotic fruits. "They're almost ripe. They should be ready by tomorrow."

Yu Qingyi ate the strange fruit without knowing it.

Later they learned that the exotic fruit could only be maximized and its power enhanced when it turned completely red and fully ripe.

As for eating more, it won't have any effect; on the contrary, it will just be a waste of a rare fruit.

The two sisters carefully placed the potted plant, covered it with something, wiped it down briefly, and then prepared to go to bed.

Yu Qingyi took off her coat and was the first to crawl into bed.

She reached behind her back and quietly untied something, then let out a long sigh of relief.

"Phew~ It feels so much better without it on. Sis, can I take it off tomorrow?"

"If we don't tie you up, you'll just be waiting to be arrested. They love girls like you the most."

As Yu Qingxuan got into bed, she said 'fiercely'.

"Then forget it."

Yu Qingyi shrank her neck, looking somewhat troubled. "But it hurts so much to be tied up, sis, don't you feel it?"

"Sis, why are you ignoring me?"

"sister……"

Yu Qingxuan turned over, yawned, and said, "I'm sleepy, let's go to sleep."

Seeing this, Yu Qingyi had no choice but to shut her mouth, but she still couldn't understand why her sister wasn't in pain.

As time passed, their breathing gradually calmed down, and they both fell asleep.

"..."

Lu Sheng blinked, finally feeling a huge weight lifted from his heart.

Fortunately, they came for a medical checkup, not one of the people he had met before.

If those people come, they will definitely kill them after discovering the strange fruit.

Given his current situation, he can only become a fish on the chopping block, at the mercy of others.

This feeling is not good at all.

Lu Sheng tried to move his hand, but only his index finger trembled slightly in response.

Wow, what kind of medicine is this? It's so potent.

At the current rate, he probably won't be fully recovered until tomorrow morning, which will take at least seven or eight hours.

The key is that he cannot show any sign of something amiss during this time, otherwise Yu Qingxuan will definitely continue to give him acupuncture.

Who knows if the other party has any other medicine?

The medicine the other party had given him earlier was definitely not an ordinary anesthetic. Those kinds of drugs usually only last for a few hours, unlike now where his body couldn't even resist it.

It's probably a product unique to this world.

He needs to be careful.

In Lu Sheng's memory, during the two days he was imprisoned, he was only conscious for a short period of time, able to eat half an energy bar and go to the toilet.

Then you'll soon get a shot and go to sleep obediently.

Forget about explaining, even the slightest movement will be misinterpreted as resistance, and you'll get a shot.

There was always a sharp knife pressed against his back, preventing him from having any thoughts of resistance.

Lu Sheng abandoned any other thoughts and decided to just wait for the effects of the medicine to wear off.

Anyway, he had vaguely heard that one of the two sisters was already a support-type Awakened, so there would definitely be one of the two exotic fruits left.

Once he regains his mobility, we can find another opportunity to take it.

After thinking it over, Lu Sheng calmed down and tried to use his internal energy to see if he could speed up the recovery process.
