Elijah kept his promise, as he would need to continue gaining the trust of the white-clad female zombie, Elena, to obtain more information about the virus outbreak.
At this moment, Daisy and Charlotte arrived. Elijah handed the phone to Charlotte, asking her to check its contents.
He then squatted next to Elena and said, "You need to remove the ice from this leg. While I treat it, I might need to reset the bones, so please try not to move!"
Elena did not respond verbally. However, due to Elijah's earlier action of taking a photo, she was inclined to trust him a little.
After a moment of hesitation, she finally removed the ice from her leg.
The ice had been applied swiftly after Elijah injured her, to alleviate pain and prevent blood loss.
As the ice melted, it revealed the pale, frozen wound and the disturbing broken bones within.
Elijah felt no embarrassment at the sight. In a fight, showing mercy could mean being the one injured.
