"Quick! Don't let her run away again!"

"You go around from the other side and outflank him!"

"If Ma Dan can't be captured alive, shoot him and his cubs together!"

"But if she dies, what will Dr. Xue do if she pursues her case? That woman is pretty, but her methods are ruthless."

"You're teaching me to do things?!"

"Brother Meng, how dare I?"

"Gouwa, are you stupid? Which one is more responsible, dead or gone?"

"Don't give me any nonsense!"

"Okay, Brother Meng"

There were whispers coming from the darkness not far away.

It sounded like the other party was working together to hunt down someone, and the person being hunted was around Jiang Yan's courtyard.

If Jiang Yan remembered correctly, there were wide areas between each building in the courtyard here.

Before the end of the world, many flowers, plants and trees should have been planted.

However, after experiencing high temperatures and heavy rains, all these flowers, plants and trees have long since died, and even the soil in the flower beds has been scraped clean.

At a glance, it was riddled with holes.

Listening to the footsteps, those people were getting closer and closer to their courtyard.

The haze was too heavy, the night was too dark, and there was no starlight outside. Jiang Yan looked through the telescope and saw nothing.

She thought quickly in her mind for two seconds, then with a thought, she took out an infrared thermal imaging camera from the space.

This device is much better than infrared night vision devices. It does not emit infrared light, so it is not easily discovered by the other party.

As long as the other party's temperature is above zero and there is infrared radiation, it can be directly detected.

Soon, a group of crooked and colorful figures appeared in the camera.

I counted about seven or eight people.

They were all heavily armed, and they were crouching cautiously, one on the left and the other on the right, surrounding the gate of the courtyard where they rented.

Someone should have a gun in his hand and a bullet was fired in front of it. The muzzle of the gun is still warm and is red.

Others probably have it in their hands, but they are not shown in the picture.

Jiang Yan looked through the lens toward the center point surrounded by the left and right sides, and her eyes paused.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, a red shadow, taller than an adult, with a small head but a fat body, appeared in the lens tube.

"this--"

Jiang Yan took a breath.

Even though its shadow was severely distorted, she quickly figured out that it was not a human at all, but some kind of animal.

And it is some kind of bipedal animal with a huge belly and a long tail, like a kangaroo.

But the one in front of me is obviously not a kangaroo.

Kangaroo's legs are not that short.

Without the cover of clothes, the red images reflected on it were much more than those on those people.

Just thinking about it, the living creature rolled and crawled into the front yard as if it had magnets on its feet.

After landing heavily with a "pop", the living creature quickly disappeared into the blind spot of the imager's sight.

"Bang bang bang!" A rapid and heavy knock on the door followed.

"Is there anyone?! Open the door quickly!!" A male voice with a fierce tone sounded.

"Bang bang bang!" The other party began to kick the door roughly.

Jiang Yan turned her head and glanced at Huabao hanging on her shoulder, and said, "Huabao, go down to the yard and take a look. What broke in?"

"Jie Jie Jie!" Okay, Mom!

Hua Bao had jumped to the ground, his head and vines turned into pieces of paper, and he slipped out of the crack in the door with a "swish". He immediately returned to his original state and jumped downstairs.

"Squeak-"

"Squeak-"

After a slight sound, the doors to the second bedroom and the children's room on the first floor quietly opened one after another.

"Brother Tao."

"Xiaoye."

It was Sun Jingtao and Ye Qing who came out after hearing strange noises outside.

"Honey, you stay in the house while Xiaoye and I go out and take a look. If anything goes wrong, go upstairs and find Jiang Yan." Sun Jingtao frowned and explained.

Su Dai's eyes were full of worry: "Okay, husband, you should also be careful.

Remember, be patient for a while, it’s just our first day here, try not to conflict with them. "

"Okay." Sun Jingtao nodded.

Hua Bao, whose transparent figure passed in front of the three of them, didn't pay much attention.

It imitated the scenes it had seen in those monster movies before. A few vines were like octopus tentacles. It stood on tiptoes and sneakily walked past the three of them. It then passed through the window that Jiang Yan had opened earlier. "Rustling" turned out.

Raising his nose and smelling the dark air, Hua Bao's little eyes full of wisdom rolled around.

Looking at some bloody footprints scattered on the ground, it bared its teeth for a second, and then quickly touched a corner of the backyard.

Soon, a giant rat slumped in the corner of the wall, with blood stains on its lips and paws, and its body trembling crazily, appeared in its sight.

The mouse looked pitiful, with a blood hole the size of a bowl on its belly, and blood was gushing out.

The surrounding hair was wet and sticky, exuding a strong and tangy fishy odor.

After taking a closer look, I found that its belly was very bulging, like a balloon about to explode. It fell to the side and undulated greatly.

Most likely it was a pregnant rat mother who was about to give birth to her cubs.

Next to its body, there was a freshly dug earth hole, and next to it was a pile of blood-stained dirt.

I don’t know if it was because the mother rat was dying from a gunshot wound, but the hole was dug halfway and then placed there.

In less than a second, the mother mouse spun uncomfortably on the spot with tears in her eyes.

It seemed like it was chasing its own tail with its mouth open.

Hua Bao blinked and silently stared at its strange behavior.

Soon, a wet pink tail was exposed under its body.

Immediately, there was an equally wet flesh-pink body, and then a head.

A baby mouse was born with its eyes closed and its body covered in amniotic fluid.

The rat babies are not small, one is as big as an ordinary cat.

The mother mouse did not continue to spin, but endured the severe pain from her belly, leaned down her plump body, and used her tongue to lick the amniotic fluid off the mouse cub bit by bit.

Soon it started spinning again.

The second and third baby mice were born successfully.

Every time one is born, the mother mouse will tremble and hold back the severe pain to lick one.

Its body was even a little unsteady.

But all the children in the belly have not been born yet, and it cannot stop at all.

"Mouse?" Jiang Yan, who received the feedback from Hua Bao's thoughts, was stunned for a second.

But she figured it out quickly.

Rats like to live in dark corners and are good at swimming. It is not surprising that they can survive high temperatures and heavy rains.

And when many coal mines are mining, they usually release some rats specifically because they are afraid of encountering toxic gases.

Over time, the harmonious coexistence of workers and rats in coal mines became the norm.
