Chapter 27: Crawling in the Dark

Pei Du stopped in front of the gate of the villa. Two cameras were also installed at the entrance of the gate. The surveillance here was still operating normally, and there was no abnormality.

Only the cameras in the villa were all damaged and turned into black screens.

Pei Du took back his phone, glanced at Gouqiu Tuosheng, and said, "I'll go in first, you turn up the light and follow me. How about that?"

If it was so desperate, it would definitely not be willing to rush in front. In order to prevent it from turning around and running away, Pei Du simply threw out the bait.

Gouqiu Tousheng really had no objection: "Don't worry, you are my host, I will not let you not see it!"

As it spoke, it adjusted the blue light on its body to an appropriate brightness.

Pei Du didn't say anything else. He used his key to unlock the door, pushed open the door and walked in.

It was not completely dark inside the house. Although Pei Du had drawn all the blackout curtains before leaving, it was noon and the bright sunlight was pouring in from the windows, always able to penetrate the curtains and let in some light.

Pei Du did not close the door. He walked inside and glanced at the various devices in the hall.

Sheng Shixian's chair was still in its original position, near the bathroom. The handcuffs broke into two pieces and fell to the ground. The iron chain on it was dragged very long, and the end had already penetrated deep into the bathroom, so the specific situation could not be seen.

Pei Du didn't expect that Sheng Shixian could even pry open the handcuffs. The handcuffs were made of heavy metal and were specially reinforced. It was difficult for ordinary aliens to break free, not to mention that Sheng Shixian's hands had a limited range of motion.

As the sky floats in the air, the brightness of the blue light keeps increasing, making the dark corners clearer and more distinct.

Pei Du walked towards the bathroom cautiously. The sound of running water continued. Pei Du approached the corner but did not see any sign of human presence inside.

Pei Du frowned, and after a few seconds of hesitation, he opened the sliding door of the bathroom. The faucet on the sink was on, and the cool water accumulated inside and flowed all over the floor. The glass surface was full of cracks, and the trash can was kicked over and fell to the ground.

There's no one in here.

"Knock, knock."

Two gentle knocking sounds rang out behind Pei Du, as if they were intentionally exposing his position. Pei Du's nerves tensed when he heard the sound, and he turned around, and his vision was suddenly hit by a large area of ​​darkness.

"Wow—he's coming!" Gouqiu Tousheng screamed and quickly changed the direction of the blue light.

Pei Du was hit in the face by the hot air. Sheng Shiyan was as agile as a cheetah. He didn't care about the wound on his leg that had not healed yet. After lying in wait for a long time, he suddenly rushed out from the corner of the stairs next to him, and fell to the ground with Pei Du.

"Sheng Shixian--" Pei Du didn't know what was wrong with Sheng Shixian. After he fell to the ground, he grabbed Sheng Shixian's collar and tightened his throat.

Sheng Shixian's eyes were bloodshot, and the whites of his eyes were covered with bloodshot. His face was twisted and distorted as if in shock, only his fangs were bared, and his sharp claws tightly grasped Pei Du's arm.

Pei Du grabbed his neck. Sheng Shixian stretched his neck forward unwillingly, and a low threatening sound rose from his throat like a wild beast.

Pei Du was pinned down by him, and he looked up at Sheng Shixian's growl. Something was shaking on the top of Sheng Shixian's head, and Pei Du looked there, his sight instantly frozen.

Two triangular things grew on Sheng Shi’s head. They were flesh-colored and trembled in the air like new sprouts.

...and it actually grew dog ears!

Pei Du's strength paused for a moment, and Sheng Shixian took the opportunity to pinch his neck. His fangs hesitated for a few seconds before moving from Pei Du's neck to the upper part, and he bit a row of bloody marks on the side of Pei Du's ear.

Pei Du groaned. The pain in his ear was mixed with a burning sensation, and the next second he became numb and lost consciousness.

Sheng Shiyan tasted blood on the tip of his tongue.

Ordinary people bitten by alien species will also undergo mutation. Sheng Shi's ears twitched twice with envy. He wanted Pei Du to be the same as him.

This way he won't always think about going out, and he won't come back with a bunch of strangers' stinking things on him.

They will be of the same kind and will flee together in the future.

Pei Du's mind was unclear for a moment. Sheng Shixian bit his skin and refused to let go, and Pei Du couldn't pull him away.

Gouqie Toutunsheng was spinning anxiously in the air. Pei Du made a gesture to it to come over, and Gouqie Toutunsheng quickly flew over.

"What should I do? What should I do? How do you feel about me..."

Pei Du caught Gou Qie and tried to survive. Without thinking, he used its body to smash Sheng Shixian's solar plexus.

"Bang——" There was a sound of something shattering in the air.

Sheng Shixian's head was buzzing. He felt dizzy for a while and finally opened his mouth. He and Gouqiu Tousheng collapsed to the ground together.

Pei Du also breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned against the floor as if exhausted, and reached out to touch the side of his ear. Scarlet blood entangled the skin in his palm, and the background was pale, and the red liquid was glaring.

The back of Sheng Shi's head was still pressing on Pei Du's chest after he fainted from envy. Pei Du's fingertips ran through his black hair and touched the two beast ears on his head.

It has just grown out, so there is not much hair on it yet, and it feels soft and fragile when you pinch it in your hands.

Pei Du withdrew his hand, pushed Sheng Shixian to the side, and carried the exhausted Gouqiu to the sofa.

The blue light on the sphere dimmed a lot, but other than that, it didn't change. Pei Du casually placed it next to the charger and took out the medicine from his clothes.

Pei Du pulled back his sleeves, and the blue veins on his forearms had begun to change color, turning red, a symptom similar to a mutation.

The medicine that Director Gong Yuanshen had given him before was not effective. Pei Du inserted the needle into his own blood vessels, and the medicine was pushed into the blood vessels by the thrust. After a while, the color of Pei Du's blood vessels changed from red to blue again.

Pei Du is someone who will not be infected.

He was originally a mutant.

After being bitten by his mother, Pei Du had already undergone a transformation.

It's just that the change is not obvious.

Pei Du threw the empty syringe into the trash can. These drugs that only had a concealing effect didn't seem to work for Pei Du, but they could indeed reduce a lot of trouble.

Pei Du leaned on the sofa. He looked at Sheng Shixian who was still lying on the floor, and took out the gag from the drawer.

He has many gags at home, metal, rubber, wooden...

Sheng Shixian might prefer something harder.

*

Pei Du handcuffed Sheng Shixian back to the old place. After growing the beast ears, Sheng Shixian's body functions would increase exponentially, so Pei Du didn't dare to let him move around freely.

He was safer tied up.

Pei Du applied medicine to his wounds. Fortunately, Sheng Shixian did not use too much force when biting him, otherwise Pei Du would have no idea what he would have been torn into pieces.

Pei Du put away the ointment and turned to look at Sheng Shixian. Sheng Shixian had his eyes closed and was curled up on the sofa.

The bandage on his right knee was covered in blood. He was risking losing his leg just to bite Pei Du.
