Someone’s stomach was growling in the quiet suite. Shawn looked at Ed opposite him. So did Ed.
They stared at each other for long, and Shawn looked Ed up and down for a couple of times. So did Ed. However, he could see nothing but Shawn wrapping up in thick bath towels.
For safety concerns, Shawn did not even expose his eyes, and only left a small chink, through which he could see the other. However, the other could see nothing but a dark chink.
Finally, Ed gave up and said, “Don’t you think we should have something to eat?”
“I’m not hungry.” Said Shawn. His voice sounded rather cold and emotionless due to being wrapped in covers.
“...” Ed took a deep breath, leant against the couch, and said reluctantly, “I’m starving.”
“It’s none of my business.” Said Shawn.
Ed restrained himself, and said gently and politely, “Since I have difficult in moving, could you please find some food for me?”
Shawn raised his eyebrows and said, “What benefit can I get?”
“I will trade information on super power with you.” Said Ed. He was poor and blank now, and indeed had nothing to trade. However, based on his observation, Shawn was totally clueless about super power, and he could take advantage of it.
“Okay.” Actually, what Shawn needed most now was such information. He thought about it and said, “And the outside situation.”
“Done.” Ed agreed frankly. Most people outside were aware of such information, which was not much of a secret, and it was pretty fair to trade it for food.
Wrapped in covers, Shawn was about to go outside. He could just find some clothes to wear, he thought. Not only was it troublesome to wrap up in covers, but it was also inconvenient for him to move. Besides, it could easily draw attention from others.
“Oh, find a suit of clothes for me, please.” Ed said suddenly as Shawn was opening the door.
Shawn paused for a moment, and then pushed the door open and went out.
Zombies outside had been wiped out by Shawn. So had zombies in rooms. Therefore, he relievedly opened doors of rooms one by one, looking for food and clothes.
Eventually, he found several pieces of chocolate and bubble gum after searching a couple of rooms. Although they could not fill the stomach, they could restore physical strength anyhow. He found a towel and wrapped them up.
He felt a little regret. This brand of chocolate was rather expensive, it was heard that it tasted good, but he had never tried it. He would have tasted it if he did not turn into a zombie.
However, he was rather satisfied with what he was now. Zombies walked everywhere as it was the end of the world. What could be safer than becoming a zombie?
Ed waited for a long time while Shawn was slowly searching outside. He became a little upset and thought Shawn had run away. Just then, Shawn came back, who still wrapped up in covers but had plenty of things in his hands.
He dropped a bag, Ed grabbed clothes, and went into the bathroom to change them. Clothes Shawn had found were all high-collar and long-sleeve clothes, and pants were long, to ensure he could be wrapped tightly. He also found a motorcycle safety helmet, which could cover all his head and face.
He didn’t care how attractive he would be in such a dress. As long as his look was not seen, he would be rather satisfied.
Outside the bathroom, watching Shawn leaving, Ed opened the package wrapped with towels. What he saw were bread, milk, instant noodles, chocolate, kinds of snacks, and a suit of clothes.
Ed smiled. Shawn’s characteristic was a little hateful, however, he was a nice guy, Ed thought. Then he tore a packing bag of bread and took a bite of it.
However, his good mood lasted until Shawn came out of the bathroom.
Seeing Shawn, who was armed to the teeth, coming out of the bathroom, Ed twitched his mouth and felt speechless. However, he said nothing because he was afraid that Shawn would argue with him.
