[I report @Apple Hotel! Their fish meat is all spoiled! I was almost sickened to death that day! ]
[Could it be fish? The mortality rate of fish caught in Pisces City recently is very high. According to statistics in recent years, the fish delivered to the store died inexplicably on the way.]
[Where is the giant squid? Didn't it say it would protect us?! Why is no one talking to it now? ]
[It can’t control these, right? ]
【......】
There are good and bad comments online, and there are many people who curse and spit.
Lu Zhi and Yuan Shuo put on masks and went out on the street to observe the so-called parasitic citizens up close.
They aged quickly, their cheekbones protruded, their eye sockets sunken, their faces lost all flesh and drooped like wrinkles, and their hunched bodies moved at a snail's pace.
If it happened in the dark night, the slow drifting of the lanterns would probably scare a lot of people to death.
They saw many people consciously wearing medical masks on the road, and they couldn't tell whether they were players or ordinary NPC citizens.
...
...
After returning to the cabin, the two had no intention of going out to buy food.
Lu Zhi had just taken out dozens of flavors of instant noodles and selected them one by one when a bowl of rice with minced meat and potatoes suddenly appeared in front of him.
The fragrant aroma of rice wafts into your nose, triggering your taste buds and your growling stomach.
The room was very quiet. Lu Zhi's face flushed as she covered her stomach, feeling a little embarrassed.
The man in front of her seemed not to have heard her, and greeted her with a smile: "Eat something nutritious."
"Where did you get it from?" Putting aside the embarrassment, Lu Zhi returned to his normal expression and took it, "Did you make it yourself?"
It wasn’t Yuan Shuo who did it.
Well, I must learn cooking in the future, Yuan Shuo thought secretly.
Although his space has been weakened, the effect of time standing still is still there. The hot food will not get cold when put in, and it will still be delicious when taken out.
Tears of envy flowed from her mouth. Lu Zhi swallowed the rice. Her watery cat pupils narrowed into crescents as she ate with great relish.
As the sun sets, the orange and yellow afterglow paints the sky with reluctant clouds, the gorgeous rays of light cover the fiery red salted duck eggs, and time passes quickly.
Meanwhile, the busy hospital was choked by the flow of people.
The cold iron chairs were filled with people who were as thin as skeletons, their chests rising and falling weakly, their ribs exposed. The family members beside them had red eyes from crying, and they kept begging God to hear their prayers.
In a cold office, a veteran doctor and department head hurried in.
They gathered around the table and looked down at the glass containers on the table.
The embryonic body soaked in nutrient solution showed no signs of life activity, but it was enough to make everyone present frown.
"The parasite species is an embryoid? The machine scan can't identify the species?"
"Yes, just as we took it out completely, the man started bleeding profusely without warning and never recovered."
Their hands have saved many lives but have also taken many lives.
I have been in this industry for many years, but every time I hear the news of someone’s unfortunate death, I still can’t help but feel sad and hate my own abilities.
"We must find out the source and develop a treatment plan as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
People came and went in the room, and soon after the crisp sound of the door closing, a strange noise came from the glass container placed on the table.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines into the room through the glass windows, penetrating the nutrient solution to produce a strange Tyndall effect, and also awakening the dormant embryoids.
The thin film wrapped around its body was torn apart, and blood filled the nutrient solution.
The slippery tentacles covered with mucus swayed in the light blood-colored nutrient solution. The little squid with human eyes opened its bloody mouth, and its mouth full of fangs frantically devoured the surrounding nutrient solution.
It grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, expanding by a full circle in just a few minutes.
......
The next morning, the hot air that Lu Zhi exhaled instantly solidified around his lips, feeling cold.
The city of Pisces has lost its warm sunlight since yesterday. Autumn has been driven away by the raging cold wind, and winter has poured in with great force.
It was difficult to draw warmth even when standing in the dim light.
Regarding Yuan Shuo's "Doraemon Pocket", Lu Zhi said that he was so surprised that he became numb.
After breakfast, Yuan Shuo turned on the TV and tuned to Empire TV as if he had changed his personality.
All four satellite TV stations in Pisces City are reporting on a recent disease with an extremely high mortality rate that has been named "parasitic virus."
The relentless reporter used sharp words to interrogate the doctor, whose forehead was sweating, just to dig up hot first-hand information.
The city guards who arrived quickly controlled the situation that was spiraling out of control and responded to the anxious citizens: "The Empire will not abandon any of its citizens! Please believe in us! Believe in the Empire!"
The higher-ups took action quickly. All the people were quarantined at home, and the delivered supplies were checked by professionals before being delivered to each area one by one.
In the eyes of some people, the parasitic virus is no different from the common bird flu, and they secretly curse the empire for making a fuss out of nothing.
After all, it hurts only when the knife is stabbed into one's own heart. Those who are not parasitized cannot feel the pain and despair, and they just grin and add fuel to the fire.
Putting down their phones, Lu Zhi and Yuan Shuo planned to go to the hospital today.
The game is almost a quarter of the way through, and you might find important clues in the hospital.
Lu Zhi did not stock up on protective clothing in advance, but instead bought some from Yuan Shuo and kept them in his space.
Wearing two layers of thick medical masks, he got into Yuan Shuo's black car and drove all the way to the city center.
The epidemic prevention measures were carried out thoroughly. The once bustling streets were now deserted. People hiding at home locked their doors and windows and drew their curtains tightly.
The prosperous and magnificent water empire was unprecedentedly silent.
Like the dead silence before a storm, the heart-pounding drumbeats sound the countdown to death, and endless uneasiness and ominousness spread silently.
On the way to the hospital, the two were stopped by the public security brigade. After being asked about their destination, the captain rejected their request with a serious look.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to give advice, the sight of three white flying cars speeding up from behind made his expression change drastically.
The captain saluted and stepped forward, showing his badge of identity.
The leading white car rolled down its window, and the man sitting in the passenger seat was wearing a neat white shirt with the buttons buttoned up meticulously, locking his neck.
He took out his ID tag, and his white coat made him look cool and aloof.
Lu Zhi was standing not far away and happened to catch a glimpse of the three words "Research Institute" on the identity tag.
The captain did not make things difficult for them. Apparently, he had already received the notice from his superiors. He held the intercom and spoke a few words to the people below.
The general meaning is that vehicles from scientific research institutes should not be stopped and should be allowed to pass when the red light turns green.
Lu Zhi turned his lively eyes and tilted his head to look at Yuan Shuo, who had the same idea in mind and lowered his eyebrows.
The two looked at each other and smiled, nothing could be said.
The captain withdrew his gaze from the speeding white car, coughed lightly and was about to drive them away, and was ready to force them back.
Unexpectedly, the man with a sick face showed his identity badge, and it turned out that he was from the research institute.
The captain was a little suspicious for a moment, he pulled over the ID badge and looked at it again and again. But no matter how he looked at it, the seal and signature were undoubtedly from the research institute.
He had no choice but to let him go.
As for why Yuan Shuo did not move with the main force, the captain did not dare to think about it too much, for fear of touching something that should not be touched.
The two followed the three white vehicles of the research institute and arrived at the hospital unhindered.
There were many experimenters getting off the white car, and it seemed that there were more than ten of them.
The dean was waiting in front of the hospital gate early.
He led the experimenters in with a flattering and fearful smile on his face.
It wasn't just Lu Zhi and the other person who witnessed everything.
The players are not useless either, many of them have escaped through their own channels or methods.
The woman hiding in the dark tightened her fists after seeing Lu Zhi's familiar cat-like pupils. Her nails dug into her palms, forming crescents, and she stared at her hatefully.
Lu Zhi... Could it be that the person Li Haoyu was looking at at the beginning was Lu Zhi? !
