Jiang Fei looked at the back of his right hand.
On the skin at the base of my thumb, several small blisters the size of sesame seeds appeared at some point, connected in a line.
It was as if something had drilled into the cave and dug a tunnel.
Lu Yu also has it in his hand.
Not knowing the reason, Jiang Fei did not dare to act rashly. He took out the walkie-talkie and tried to call his teammates.
The three-member team hasn't finished get off work yet at this time. I wonder if I can contact the chatterbox and the others.
Unexpectedly, I got a reply from Xiao Chuxia.
She worked overtime at the research institute all night yesterday and took a break today to catch up on some sleep at home.
"When did you come back, young lady?"
"We used the teleportation charm two or three hours ago."
Jiang Fei told Xiao Chuxia about the symptoms on the back of his hand:
"Have we been bitten by some bug?"
Xiao Chuxia's voice suddenly became anxious: "Miss, please prepare the alcohol, needles, and medical kit. I'll be downstairs right away!"
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Yu walked over and opened the door.
Xiao Chuxia outside was wearing medical protective clothing, covering herself from head to toe.
Jiang Fei had already taken out the corresponding items from the supermarket warehouse as she said.
Xiao Chuxia closed the window first.
Use the high-concentration alcohol given by Jiang Fei to disinfect 102.
Especially the window position, Xiao Chuxia disinfected it four times before taking off her mask and asking Jiang Fei:
"Which hand did you get the blister on, little sister?"
"This one." Jiang Fei stretched out his right hand.
Xiao Chuxia disinfected the needle.
Then he pricked a small blister on Jiang Fei's hand and gently scraped both sides with the other end of the needle.
After a while, two small black spots appeared where the blister broke.
Like two black sesame seeds.
Xiao Chuxia wiped it off with a tissue and disinfected Jiang Fei's wound.
Use the same method to treat the blisters on the back of Lu Yu's hands.
He squeezed out more black spots than Jiang Fei, six in total.
"Do you have any blisters anywhere else on your body?"
Jiang Fei and Lu Yu shook their heads.
They were wearing thermostatic suits to protect themselves from bites and knife cuts, but their hands and heads were the only ones that were not protected.
Unable to tell what kind of bug the small sesame seed was, Jiang Fei asked:
"What kind of bug is this?"
"I don't know either. I just know it's a tiny flying insect that likes to drill into the bodies of humans and animals, chew their flesh, and lay eggs."
Xiao Chuxia told Jiang Fei and Lu Yu about the base.
Three months ago, the eternal night ended and they welcomed endless cloudy days.
Fortunately, no new disasters occurred.
I thought the end of the world was over, but a week ago, a large number of transparent small flying insects suddenly appeared in the base.
They are barely visible to the naked eye.
The body of this insect is very hard and only turns black after death, like a black sesame seed.
The little flying snakes will sneak into the body through the eyes, mouth, nose, ears, minor wounds, or by biting through the skin and flesh.
Laying eggs while crawling.
The initial symptoms of those infected are very similar to those of scabies.
Small blisters and tunnels may appear on the skin, accompanied by itching and minimal stinging.
The itching will get worse at night, and people will want to use an iron brush to scrub the affected area to relieve the itching.
If the bugs are not picked out in time, they can cause fever, infection, nerve damage, allergies, deafness, loss of vision and other problems.
In severe cases, brain death may occur.
Because the tiny flies will eventually burrow into the human brain and have a feast.
No one in the entire base knew about this kind of bug, and there was no medicine to deal with it.
In just one week, the number of deaths and infections exceeded four digits.
What is certain is that infected people are not contagious.
And high concentration of alcohol can kill small flying insects.
Therefore, the base will be disinfected every two hours.
At the same time, residents are required to wear protective equipment when going out, and spray their whole body with alcohol every time they enter and exit to prevent the survival of small flying insects.
After all, their reproductive capacity is very strong.
A small fly can lay a large number of eggs in a few minutes, which hatch very quickly.
There is no end to the killing.
The reason why Lu Jiangfei and Lu Yu were infected was because they had just opened the windows for ventilation.
If they hadn't been lucky and the base had just completed a wave of disinfection, the situation would probably have been even more serious.
Xiao Chuxia: "Although the small flying insects in your hands have been picked out, the insects have laid eggs."
"The eggs in the human body hatch very slowly, taking about four hours."
"There is currently no way to remove the eggs from humans and animals. We can only wait for them to hatch and then pick them out."
"You will have high fever, fatigue and other symptoms later. I will stay in 102 to watch over the little sister tonight."
"After the eggs hatch, they will burrow everywhere. It's inconvenient for me to help Brother Lu pick out the insects."
"Wait for Liuyuan and Zhaorui to get off work, and then I'll ask them to come over and look after Brother Lu."
Jiang Fei and Lu Yu felt their scalps tingling after hearing this.
Everyone wants to peel off the skin and flesh and carefully look for the insect eggs inside.
Jiang Fei couldn't help feeling annoyed when thinking about his behavior of opening the window.
She had no idea that a new disaster had occurred at the base.
I opened the window because I was dissatisfied with the dust in the room and the choking feeling.
If she had known this would happen, she would rather be choked to death by the dust than sit there in a state of restlessness.
The only thing to be thankful for was that she didn't take the rhubarb and the others out of the supermarket after finishing her work.
Just in case, Jiang Fei took out two life-saving pills and gave them to Xiao Chuxia.
If her and Lu Yu's condition is serious, feed them.
Less than half an hour later, Jiang Fei felt a little dizzy.
Xiao Chuxia took a thermometer to measure her temperature.
38℃.
She started to have a fever.
Lu Yu's body temperature also rose.
"Miss, Brother Lu, each of you take a pill of the enhanced special medicine."
"The specific medicine has little effect on the high fever caused by the small flying insects, but it can relieve some discomfort."
102 There was no drinking water, so Jiang Fei took out two bottles of fountain water and took medicine with Lu Yu.
Xiao Chuxia helped Jiang Fei back to the bedroom.
Lu Yu was lying on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Su Liuyuan and Ling Zhaorui.
After locking the door, Jiang Fei took off his clothes and went to bed, leaving only a set of underwear on.
Afraid that she would be cold, Xiao Chuxia turned on the air conditioner.
The base's air conditioning ducts and external chassis have been re-protected to prevent small flying insects from flying in.
Xiao Chuxia sat beside the bed and shone a small flashlight on Jiang Fei's skin, looking for any new blisters.
As time passed, Jiang Fei's dizziness became more severe.
My whole body is hot and I shiver from time to time.
Consciousness gradually becomes blurred.
Jiang Fei fell asleep unknowingly...
