Jiang Li barely slept that night, waking up startled every now and then. Later, they ended up watching movies together, "Nezha" and "Castle in the Sky"
Gu Yan kept an eye on Jiang Li, pausing the movie whenever she fell asleep. When she woke up, he’d play it again, his arm numb but holding steady.
Finally, when Jiang Li drifted off and didn't wake up, Gu Yan gently placed her head on the pillow.
Opening the door, he found a refreshed Zhang Jie in room 1702. Before Zhang Jie could react, Gu Yan wrapped his arms around his neck from behind and pushed him down.
"Gently, gently, my brother."
"What a mess, in the morning!" Zhang Jie’s face turned red as he loudly protested.
Afraid of waking Jiang Li, Gu Yan pressed pressure points on his neck with his other hand. Zhang Jie couldn't make a sound, his face a picture of anger.
Was this guy seeking revenge early in the morning? Always like this to him,
Without any restraint...
Gu Yan estimated the time was about right before asking, "What were you doing in 1701 yesterday?"
Zhang Jie's face flushed red with embarrassment. Asking such a private question so early in the morning, and he knows he likes Xinyi~
Seeing his brother's furrowed brow and serious expression, Zhang Jie regained his composure and pointed to his throat.
Gu Yan impatiently handed him water. Zhang Jie took a drink to calm his nerves and said,
"Doing what couples do."
"Nothing else?" Gu Yan pressed.
"No, and we took precautions. Didn't spoil the garden." Zhang Jie was confused. Hadn't his brother used that yet? Starting to learn so early?
Ignoring Zhang Jie's ambiguous gaze, Gu Yan went back to accompany Jiang Li.
...
The living room was warm because of the electric heater.
So Jiang Li brought the food Wang Xinyi had left for them to the dining table.
Gu Yan quickly helped set the table, scooping a bowl of pork rib soup.
"Here, drink it while it's hot."
Jiang Li obediently took the bowl and sipped it.
There were still a lot of ribs in the bowl. Jiang Li couldn't finish it, so Gu Yan took it and continued eating.
This was his first time eating someone else's leftovers, and he didn't feel disgusted at all!
Gu Yan also had a hearty appetite, eating two bowls of rice and three bowls of pork rib soup, leaving nothing in the pot.
After eating his fill, Gu Yan felt a little embarrassed and took the initiative to wash the dishes.
Seeing how excited he looked, Jiang Li let him.
After washing the dishes, Gu Yan felt awkward about staying in front of Jiang Li any longer.
Although he really didn't want to leave, he couldn't just stay like a prisoner. He forced himself to leave.
After Gu Yan left, Jiang Li let out a long sigh of relief.
Leaving a note, Jiang Li decided to go to the hospital.
In her previous life, the hospital was also flooded, and access was by assault boats, kayaks, or small boats.
Hospital equipment was moved to a newly built, unused inpatient building for temporary storage.
In her previous life, people lacked fresh fruits and vegetables for a long time, with vitamin deficiencies leading to weakened immunity and declining resistance.
The extreme cold period had exacerbated food shortages, and more and more people died from freezing or illness.
Without heating at the hospital, patients with third or fourth-degree frostbite would still suffer long-term consequences.
All medicines and equipment were planned to be collected.
In her previous life, this building collapsed in the flood. The dean, afraid of being held accountable for negligence, hid and barely survived outside the base.
Once, someone bullied him and kicked him in the head. Every day he foolishly told everyone he met that he was the hospital dean and would have them all committed to a mental hospital.
He also said the building collapsed and it was his fault...
Jiang Li had worked as a caregiver in the hospital for a while and knew this was the real dean, not a fraud.
Medicine is essential. Although she had obtained a lot of emergency supplies at the Zhongheng Hotel before, they were not as comprehensive as the hospital's.
Hospital equipment was mostly imported and impossible for private individuals to purchase.
Upon arriving at the hospital, the atmosphere felt instantly eerie. Patients who had difficulty moving underwater were permanently left in their rooms, along with the cadavers/anatomical specimens that were already in the morgue.
Jiang Li decided to search quickly and leave before dark. She finally managed to climb to the 32nd floor.
Just as she was about to start working, she looked down and saw a helipad on the roof of the old inpatient building, so the new one must have one too.
It was just like a temporary helipad. Twelve helicopters were in sight, with three empty spots. It seemed many important people had been flown out.
The hospital was Grade A Class A, with the government pouring in all its resources for policies, talent, and funding.
After all, many people had booked future retirement spots there, treating it as a form of "retirement insurance." No wonder it was so lavish.
So why be polite! She took everything – tools for inspection, adjustment, testing, cleaning, and replacement original aircraft parts like blades, etc.
Going downstairs according to the signs, she quickly found the general pharmacy. The special pharmacy was not on this floor. Half was Western medicine, half was herbal medicine.
Cold medicine, antidiarrheal medication, antihistamine, cefazolin, burn ointment, etc.
Jiang Li packed them up with their packaging. The formulas inside would be of great use.
In reality, many people find medicine packaging takes up space and will unbox their purchased medications into a medicine box.
Opened medications can be easily confused with others, and the packaging box also serves as a simple instruction manual, convenient and accurate when needed.
Panax notoginseng, saffron, Magnolia flower, ginger, white onion, stone coriander, Xanthium, Mulberry leaf, chrysanthemum, gypsum, Coptis chinensis, Phellodendron chinense, rhinoceros horn, mirabilite, Gentiana, Glechoma longituba, many were in snakeskin bags.
Jiang Li couldn't recognize many of the characters on the outside labels, but it didn't slow her down. She even took the small cabinets for the Chinese herbs.
On the 30th floor, when she opened the door, she was instantly met with a large, open space. The walls were covered with transparent windows full of medicines, insulin, and tetanus vaccine.
Jiang Li was stunned when she saw it, and then let out a silent scream of joy in her heart.
This was tetanus vaccine!
In the apocalypse, fighting was common, and tetanus was the most frequent infection. If a blade was rusty, there was a high chance of death from infection.
Take it, take it, take it all!
Next were several vaccines. Flu, rabies, hepatitis B, HPV, and various other common vaccines were available, though the quantities varied.
As Jiang Li moved them into her spatial storage one by one, she marveled at how many vaccines could be stored.
Now they were all hers.
Thanks for nature’s bounty! Thank the dean!
When storing them, Jiang Li restored the external and internal medicines to their original positions in the hospital, storing them separately. Some external medicines had high concentrations.
If accidentally ingested, they could cause corrosion or burns to the digestive tract, so they were stored separately from internal medicines to prevent accidental ingestion.
Adult medication and pediatric medication also had to be stored separately. Pediatric medication dosages were smaller than adult dosages. If an adult dose was mistaken for a child's, it could endanger the child's life.
However, they were all in the same spatial area. She put the hotel's supplies in there too.
Soon, she reached the last floor, the 28th.
According to the strict classification of medical devices by the Galaxy Nation, Class III medical devices were the highest level and had to be strictly controlled. Yet, there were many here.
Surgical instruments, medical X-ray film, surgical gowns, surgical caps, etc.
Medical suture needles, sutures, sphygmomanometers, thermometers, ECG machines, EEG machines, microscopes, hearing aids, ultrasonic cleaning equipment,
Pacemakers, hemodialysis devices, implantable devices, vascular stents, anesthesia machines, medical absorbable sutures, and so on.
Jiang Li took them all; this haul was truly a blessing.
