Chapter 275 Rat Catching Plan

Qin Jun didn't know if it was because of his anxiety, his voice was hoarse as if a piece of sandpaper was being rubbed on the ground, and there was a hint of relief mixed in with his grief.

He first asked, "Giant rats appeared in the city today. How is it in your mountain?"

When Shi Jiaojiao heard these words, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Giant rat?

Is that really a rat outside?

Or the Mouse PLUS version?

She put aside her doubts and reported that she was safe first: "There's nothing wrong on the mountain. We only heard some noise after the safe period ended. We were planning to go out and check again tomorrow during the safe period."

Qin Jun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that everyone was safe and sound, and then continued to explain.

He did not mention the tragedy in the city, but simply reiterated the conclusions of the official research.

The soldiers who were searching for supplies outside during the safe period not only saved people, but also brought back the corpses of several giant rats.

The staff of the institute had no time to grieve and started research as soon as they got the giant rat.

Thanks to the efforts of all the staff, the research report was soon placed on the desk of the official leader.

Qin Jun made this call as soon as he received the news. It had been so long since the end of the world, and there were not many people he could remember.

He also knew that Shi Jiaojiao and the other three were in good conditions and could take good protective measures, otherwise his call would have been to instruct them to stay indoors and not go out.

After listening to this, Shi Jiaojiao didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although Qin Jun only stated the conclusion, she was not a fool. She could tell from his tone that something big must have happened in the city.

The giant rat's fangs are poisonous and can kill a person with one bite. If there weren't so many deaths, how could they have come to this conclusion so quickly?

But there is good news. The giant rats outside do not carry any bacteria or viruses except for their highly toxic teeth.

And after experiments, giant rat meat is edible!

You know, in the end times, the most scarce things are food and water.

Now we still have cacti and aloe vera to support us, but it is still a question whether these two plants can continue to grow after the polar day ends.

Now the appearance of the giant rat undoubtedly provides everyone with hope of survival!

We should be happy about the new rations.

But at this moment, she could not feel any joy, only a sense of anger as if she was being played around by God.

Shi Jiaojiao took a deep breath, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and asked, "Can all parts of giant rat meat be eaten?"

Qin Jun explained: "The internal organs are not okay, because they contain toxins that the human body cannot metabolize. Other parts can be eaten, but for safety, they must be cooked at high temperatures."

Before hanging up the phone, Qin Jun gave one more reminder: "The teeth of giant rats are very poisonous. Once a person is bitten, the symptoms will develop very quickly. There is no possibility of rescue. In addition, there is no drug that can detoxify. So you must be careful when catching them. It is better not to catch them than to be bitten."

Qin Jun's tone was filled with a pain so strong that it was almost unresolved, and Shi Jiaojiao's heart became heavy as well.

She knew that there must have been heavy casualties in the city.

And every time a disaster occurs, the group of lovely soldiers are always at the forefront.

At this moment, she didn't know how to comfort him.

After hanging up the phone, Shi Jiaojiao sighed deeply, and then suddenly laughed.

But there was a strong sense of sarcasm in that laughter.

She looked at Mu Ci: "Brother, do you think the giant rat that suddenly appeared is like a piece of candy wrapped in poison?"

If humans want to survive, they cannot miss this opportunity. After all, this is a rare food supply.

But the giant rat's fangs ruthlessly harvested human lives.

Mu Ci touched Shi Jiaojiao's head and said, "At least God didn't give me a dead end."

Shi Jiaojiao curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer.

It is indeed not a dead end, but this road is full of disasters and traps.

Even the little bit of hope that God casually bestows upon mankind is wrapped in a thick layer of murderous intent.

She calmed herself down, then picked up the intercom and told Wang Jia and Tang Wei the new news.

When Wang Jia heard the intercom ringing, he thought it was Shi Jiaojiao asking if he and Tang Wei had any wounds.

So as soon as the call was connected, Wang Jia spoke first: "Jiaojiao, don't worry, Tang Wei and I just checked, and we don't have any injuries."

In fact, after the examination, she and Tang Wei also breathed a sigh of relief.

They were not afraid of being infected or anything, after all, the plague was just speculation.

They are afraid that if there is a wound, they will not be able to go out during the safe period tomorrow.

They didn't want to put all the responsibilities on Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci's shoulders, nor did they want to fail at the critical moment.

However, Shi Jiaojiao's next words shocked the two of them so much that they couldn't close their mouths for a long time.

Tang Wei was so shocked that his hairline moved up.

The rats that Shi Jiaojiao described before were scary enough, but who would have thought that the rats outside were actually an even stronger version of them!

Is this not enough to let people survive?

"Giant rat? How big is it?" Wang Jia asked, closing his jaw in shock.

Shi Jiaojiao: "Qin Jun said it was about the same size as an adult cat before the apocalypse."

As soon as these words were spoken, two simultaneous gasps of surprise were heard from the receiver.

Both of them had goosebumps all over their bodies and felt numb all over.

However, Shi Jiaojiao's next words directly made the two people's hearts, which had already fallen to the bottom, be lifted up again.

Giant rats can actually eat!

Is it a disaster if it is edible?

No? That's takeaway delivered to your door!

Wang Jia was extremely excited.

It is true that she and Tang Wei are not short of food for the time being, but no one knows when this damn apocalypse will end. Who would complain about having too much food now?

Not to mention, this is meat!

If rat meat was mentioned before the end of the world, everyone's first reaction would be disgust. But now it is the end of the world, and meat is as precious as gold in the past, even rat meat.

Wang Jia and Tang Wei felt their mouths were drooling profusely.

Shi Jiaojiao sensed the two's excitement and silently poured a basin of cold water on them: "Although the meat is edible, don't forget the giant rat's fangs. If you get bitten, we'll have to see each other in the next life."

Wang Jia and Tang Wei calmed down a little after hearing this.

Yes, meat is important, but not as important as life.

The giant rat must be caught, and Shi Jiaojiao doesn't want to miss it. After all, she still has a fat tiger to raise in her space, and she doesn't know when she will have such a good opportunity again in the future.

In the following time, the four began to discuss the rat catching plan.

Stab-proof clothing is a must, and it is best to have a helmet to protect your head, and gloves should also be worn.

Wang Jia suggested: "Wouldn't it be more convenient to change the weapon to an electric baton?"

Shi Jiaojiao nodded and accepted the suggestion.

"I have several electric batons here. You can come get them tomorrow."

The information they have received so far was all sent by the Qin army, and no one has ever seen the speed of the giant rat with their own eyes.

If the speed is too fast, the knife may not be able to kill the giant rat immediately.

But the electric baton is different. If it touches a giant rat, it will definitely be knocked unconscious.

Although the giant rat is a mutated rat, it is still flesh and blood no matter how mutated it is. If it can really withstand electric shocks, it is no longer a giant rat and should just be called Pikachu.
