Doomsday rat

Chapter 122 Suspicious
Although he joined the rescue team late and was not an official member of the field team, he still participated in the operation to clean up the zombies. He went to the light training no less than three times, and he knew more or less about the body structure of the zombies.

Those guys have no blood and body fluids, their internal organs and muscles are all fibrous, and even their bones are harder than humans.But even though the arm in front of him had the blue-gray skin of a zombie, it was flesh and blood. How could it be a zombie!

"Yes, a zombie with flesh and blood and certain intelligence. The reason why it is said to be a zombie rather than a person infected with a disease is because they eat people! I want to study it carefully and see if I can find the cause of this disease from it Or something else. It is difficult to completely eliminate the zombies by killing them bit by bit, and finding a cure one day earlier is the right way, right?"

Just when the zombie was picked up by Randy with two shots, Hong Tao realized that it was different, so he took the risk and went back to take pictures, and took an arm by the way.

It is said that all the corpses should be brought back, especially the head.It's a pity, I'm not a superman, and I really can't take a corpse up and down to avoid the swarms of zombies. I can only abandon it first, and go back to see the situation in a few days.

"...OK, I'll do the autopsy! Team leader, I need some surgical equipment...and disinfection and isolation equipment. It's best not to do it here, can you find a more independent place?"

Hearing that Hong Tao wanted to find the origin of the disease, Hu Ran blushed a little.As a doctor, it is said that this kind of thinking should be more than ordinary people, but since the catastrophe, I have been preoccupied with how to live, and I don't think about it at all.Now being pointed out in person, at least he is a man of eight feet, but if he wants to show his face, he can even pinch his nose!

"Yes, this proposal is very correct... Let's go, I'll take this with you, pack up and go to the public toilet diagonally opposite."

If you want to say that a profession is a profession, Hu Ran reminded Hong Tao in one sentence. Although the Westinghouse is not populated, the small courtyard is a restaurant for big guys after all. It’s fine to keep a zombie and do pathological anatomy tests. My little life is serious.I don't need to care about it, but now I am not alone, so I have to be more or less considerate of other people's feelings.

"Ah? Go to the public toilet for an autopsy!" Chu Qiu didn't express any opinions since she came in. She knew that what she said was meaningless, and once the landlord made up his mind, no one would be able to explain it.But at this moment, I really have to talk, who has ever heard of using a public toilet as a laboratory!
"Hey hey hey, that place is independent and close enough to pull wires. Even if it's polluted, it doesn't matter if it's set on fire. Don't think it's dirty or smelly. It hasn't been used for more than a month. It's actually a house. I Go to pull the wire first, hurry up and prepare, don't talk to others, I will ask Jiao San to guard and not let anyone get close!"

With the people and the place, Hong Tao didn't want to wait for a moment, and immediately got to work.In less than an hour, the public toilet laboratory was ready, with lights, medical equipment, high-pressure water guns and power tools.The chemical protective suits just found from the embassy in the afternoon were also used, and the three wore the same clothes as astronauts, and got in one by one.

"Group leader Jiao, what is Lao Hong going to do?" It was impossible for this torment to attract the attention of others. Liu Quanyou had only received a notice that he could not approach, and he had to go to Jiao San if he wanted to know the details.

"I wish I knew...Brother Hong said that it's a bit dangerous to conduct an experiment, so don't let others get close. Let's stop worrying about it and wait for the news."

It's a pity that Jiao San really didn't know, and didn't bother to ask.The relationship between him and Lin Na has made a lot of progress these days, and he is thinking about how to strike while the iron is hot, and he can't think of other things at all.And he knows that he can't control it if he wants to, so why bother to scold him.

The light in the toilet lasted until midnight before it went out. Three tired figures came out, sprayed each other with alcohol on the chemical protective suits, then rinsed them with a water gun, sprayed them with disinfectant, rinsed them again, and finally took off the chemical protective suits Take a bath in the enclosure by the lake.

"Doctor Hu...Doctor Hu!" Hong Tao and Chu Qiu returned to the small courtyard after washing. Hu Ran walked to the nearby No. 52 courtyard alone, and was about to lift his legs to enter the door when a figure suddenly stood in front of him.

"Oh, I was shocked... Captain Liu, who is this?" After seeing that it was Liu Quanyou, Hu Ran put his little heart back into his stomach.

"Isn't it because you guys stayed up all night? I asked team leader Zhou to make some wontons to make up for it..." Liu Quanyou explained with a smile, holding a steaming bowl in his hand.

"Oh, you're too polite...how about asking Captain Hong and Team Leader Chu to eat together?" Hu Ran quickly took the bowl and thanked him repeatedly, mentioning Hong Tao and Chu Qiu by the way.

"No, Team Leader Zhou has already sent them there..." Liu Quanyou smiled more kindly.

"Group Leader Liu, do you want to ask about the test results?" Hu Ran is also the master who has worked in a large unit for more than ten years, so he doesn't know why Liu Quan is so polite. Don't make it clear, just say it yourself.I just stood in the public toilet for more than three hours, and my whole body was sore. It is true that I hurried to sleep after I finished speaking.

"Hehehe, if Captain Hong has an order, then I won't ask. Don't get me wrong, this bowl of wonton has nothing to do with your experiment. I'm in charge of logistics, so of course I have to take care of the lives of the front-line comrades!" Liu Quanyou He neither affirmed nor denied, and assumed a business-like attitude.

"Captain Hong didn't tell you not to tell you. I guess he will discuss it with you first tomorrow morning. Oh, it's stuffed with leeks..." Hu Ran really didn't receive Hong Tao's order to keep it secret, so he naturally felt pressured to say it.

But the taste of the wontons surprised him a bit. Those leeks were Hong Tao's treasures. They were planted in several big foam boxes covered with gauze, saying that they were afraid of being eaten by birds.Usually, Yang Ping and Yang Ling are responsible for watering and fertilizing, and no one is allowed to touch it.

"Don't worry, there are still a lot of fillings that Captain Hong allowed. We will also eat wontons tomorrow morning, everyone has a share!" Seeing Hu Ran's appearance of wanting to eat but not daring to eat, Liu Quanyou hurriedly explained.

He didn't lie, those boxes of leeks had to be cut short from time to time, otherwise they wouldn't grow strong.Today was just in time for Yang Ling to cut leeks. The quantity is not too much, and it is not enough for everyone to eat after frying. You can even taste the taste by making stuffing.

"Hehehe, then I'll be rude... Oh yes, the zombie arm that Captain Hong brought back is indeed different..." Hu Ran was relieved at this point, and while stuffing wontons into his mouth, he briefly talked about the anatomy just now the result of.

How should I put it, from his doctor's point of view, this arm is neither human nor zombie.The reason is very simple, the skin, tissues, muscles, blood vessels, and bones are all different from those of humans. To be precise, they are parasitized by some kind of organism, including the blood is also full of an unknown creature.

The reason why they are called organisms is because I can’t tell whether they belong to bacteria, viruses or other things. After all, I am not engaged in pathological research, and I don’t have such knowledge reserves.

At present, we can only do this step. The muscle, bone, and blood samples collected from the arm are already being cultured, and the specific situation depends on the results of the culture.In fact, Hu Ran knew that even with the cultivation results, he still couldn't define the attributes of those creatures, and had to find more professional people to do further experimental analysis.

"Then what did Captain Hong say?" Liu Quanyou was not interested in professional issues, he just wanted to know the result.

"Captain Hong said that this kind of zombie eats people, has a certain amount of intelligence, and knows how to hide and sneak attack... Oh yes, it doesn't seem to be afraid of zombies, and can coexist with zombies."

Hu Ran thought about it, but he didn't come up with a reason, because Hong Tao didn't say much from the beginning to the end, but just introduced the situation at that time, so as to analyze the behavior pattern of this kind of thing.

"...Is that so... Oh, it's getting late, you've been busy all day, go back and rest quickly, I'll ask Captain Hong for the details tomorrow." Hearing Hu Ran's introduction, Liu Quanyou felt relieved.

He wasn't worried about the mutated zombies. Now that he had so many weapons, even if he couldn't go out and use them indiscriminately, it would be no problem to defend the courtyard and the circular fortifications.The surroundings of these two places have been cleaned up, and the gunfire will not summon too many zombies.

What he wants to know is whether the disease will mutate, or become more contagious.If there is danger in this regard, then you have to find a way to retreat to a place with few people, such as a mountainous area outside the city.In that case, some things have to be planned in advance, such as how to go, what to take, where to go, where to go, how to survive and so on.

"Don't worry. Didn't Dr. Hu say that those creatures will die soon after leaving the human body, and they don't have the ability to spread through the air?" Liu Quanyou was relieved, but Hong Tao was still frowned, lying on the bed in a state of anxiety. Knowing about smoking, he even ignored Chu Qiu around him.

"I'm not afraid of airborne transmission... Do you think there will only be one?" Hong Tao was already very tired, even when he touched Chu Qiu's greasy body, he didn't respond at all, especially in his mind, the bacon was always reflected, And the picture of it peeping on the wall.

"...I heard from Randy that you cleaned up all the zombies in the yard. It was hidden in the chimney of the fireplace and finally escaped." Chu Qiu didn't understand what the landlord meant, and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It's scary, except that the cannibal part is a bit disgusting, it seems to be not as powerful as zombies.

"...Well, that's right, go to sleep!" Hong Tao hesitated to speak, turned over and hugged the woman, and reached out to turn off the bedside lamp.

Some things can't be said nonsense now. What he worries about is not how powerful this thing is, but whether it will become the leader of zombies.It is known that this thing can coexist with zombies, and it is also infected with a similar disease. At least the zombies don't attack it, so they let it live on the second floor of the embassy.

In fact, Hong Tao suspected that it was also responsible for the human flesh in the basement of the Hilton Hotel. His previous judgment was a bit wrong. This guy is not afraid of zombies at all. It should also be looking for survivors everywhere and kill them as food.

The cold storage is one of its strongholds, as is the Indian embassy. Maybe there are similar places nearby. It is known that at least two survivors died under its hands.

What about what you don't know yet?For example, can this thing communicate with zombies?If you can, then trouble is coming soon, and it is still a big trouble!

Just imagine, a zombie with not low intelligence, leading thousands of zombie army without fear, exhaustion, and pain, organized, premeditated, and planned to search and besiege survivors everywhere. Can you live in low gear?
Even if everyone has enough weapons and ammunition, the number of zombies is too large, there must be at least several million in the urban area alone.A few million... Even if it comes to hundreds of thousands, it won't be enough to scrap all the barrels.

As for whether it evolved from zombies or a separate species, both myself and Hu Ran prefer the latter explanation.If it evolved from a zombie, where did its muscles and blood vessels come from? It can never change back from fibrosis. Doesn't this mean taking off your pants and farting?

If it is a single species, no matter how small the chance of transformation is, there will definitely not be only one.Maybe in other parts of the city, or some parts of the world, this kind of thing still exists, and it is slowly evolving...

In addition, Hong Tao is still thinking about why this kind of thing didn't turn into a zombie, what are the unknown creatures in their body, and why even the doctor can't determine... Each of these problems is more complicated than the other, and there are so few clues in hand, it is simply unreasonable After thinking about it, there is no more.
