Imitating Xu Zhe's movements, he concentrated all his strength into one kick and one jump. However, according to common sense, the strength was still a little lacking. But the force of the hammer pushing upwards made Wu Qian once again deeply understand what a monster is.
Wu Qian felt as if she was thrown over the wall by this strange force. She tried hard to control her body balance and landed on the ground in a half-squat position.
Before he could even catch his breath, a large hand suddenly pressed on the back of his head, pressing him hard to the cold ground.
Wu Qian was about to resist when she found that the person holding her down was Xu Zhe, who was also crawling on the ground without saying a word.
Less than ten seconds later, a circle of flashlight light swept across the backs of the two men, accompanied by the sound of guards' footsteps coming from near to far, and the crisis was resolved.
Feeling that the strength of the hand pressing on her head was gradually decreasing, Wu Qian stood up with a sigh.
"It takes about ten minutes for the guards to patrol once. We don't have much time." Xu Zhe walked forward and Wu Qian could only follow him silently.
There are no lighting facilities here, but it is still so bright.
This is simply because this is a large, open square with more than a dozen pools of varying sizes crisscrossing across the square.
Under the bright moonlight, the clear or turbid pool water ripples...
"What exactly are we going to do?" Wu Qian asked softly, unable to suppress her curiosity.
Xu Zhe did not answer, but suddenly stopped in front of the largest filter pool and sat on the cold ground.
"We are here to poison..." Xu Zhe's answer was clear and concise, leaving no room for doubt, and he took out a bowling ball-sized jar from the bag behind him.
"Are you kidding me? You want to poison everyone in the city?!" Wu Qian knew that Xu Zhe's way of thinking was very special, but she didn't expect him to be so crazy.
"One water plant cannot achieve this effect. We will have to go to other water plants later." As he said this, Xu Zhe carefully tore the pale yellow seal on the mouth of the jar. Wu Qian seemed to see a layer of green gas pouring out of the jar.
"I can't let you do this, you are killing people!" Wu Qian squatted beside Xu Zhe, her tone serious.
"Did you misunderstand? When did I ever say I wanted to kill someone?" Xu Zhe looked puzzled.
"Then why do you want to poison here?" The only thing Wu Qian could think of was death.
"Sister, this is the Tang Clan's Gu poison. Although it can kill people without any mercy, after layers of dilution and filtration, the most it can cause is vomiting and diarrhea." Xu Zhe didn't want to continue explaining.
He reached into the jar with his leather-gloved hand, and a series of chirping sounds made his heart numb.
Not long after, Xu Zhe came out with an insect in his hand that had never appeared in the biology book. Its green skin and dozens of eyes on its head looked particularly hideous.
"Hold your breath and stay away from it. If you get exposed to its body fluids, even I can't save you." There was no joking in Xu Zhe's words. Wu Qian stood aside in fear.
Then, Xu Zhe's lips moved slightly. The ancient spell was a ritual, performing a traditional black magic.
Xu Zhe didn't look anxious, but Wu Qian, who was watching, was sweating. Because the familiar footsteps in the distance were approaching again, and the flickering flashlight had shone from the factory to the wall on one side.
"Are you okay?!" Wu Qian asked anxiously.
"Just right." The tightly closed eyes opened instantly, and the hand holding the strange insect reached out above the pool.
With a slight exertion of force, the insect twitched like a groan, and green body fluids were seen dripping from between Xu Zhe's fingers into the clear pool water.
The ceremony is not over until the insect's body is thrown into the pool.
The chirping of insects was so sharp that even the flickering flashlight was paused. The guard seemed to have discovered something and ran closer.
He ran all the way to the place where Xu Zhe had cast the spell, then stopped. He looked around staggeringly but found nothing.
The guard smiled gently, mocking his own neurosis, and continued his patrol calmly...
He climbed over the wall first and pulled the rope back just before the light hit him.
Wu Qian let out a long sigh. After all, she had done many things, but this was her first time as a thief.
Looking at Xu Zhe again, he didn't seem to be uncomfortable at all. It seemed that he did this kind of thing a lot of times
Everyone got on the bus and drove to the next water plant. This night was a busy night...
It was not until almost dawn that the three returned to the hotel.
Without even taking the time to wash up, Tiechui went straight back to his room and fell asleep.
Xu Zhe's face was a little pale, he must be tired too. Especially with multiple injuries on his body, so he didn't care about anything and fell asleep directly.
Wu Qian was different. She washed her whole body carefully. It wasn't to prove how much she cared about cleanliness, but she watched Xu Zhe kill more than a dozen insects with his own hands that night. The sticky green body fluids and the disgusting insect bodies made Wu Qian want to vomit everything she had yesterday. If you don't wash yourself carefully, you can't sleep at all...
Just as everyone fell asleep, the script designed by Xu Zhe was verified in the shortest time.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Several nurses and emergency personnel rushed into the hospital, pushing a bed. Although they were running very quickly, the patient lying on the bed was not understanding and continued to vomit violently with a pale face.
"Wait, wait, what do you want to do?!" Just as the bed was about to be pushed into the emergency room, an elderly nurse blocked their way, "Which hospital are you from? Why are you pushing the patient here?"
"I'm sorry, we're from the Third Hospital." A male paramedic stepped forward to negotiate. "We really have no choice. Since 3:00 last night, a large number of patients with vomiting and diarrhea have been sent to our hospital. Now it's overcrowded, so we sent the patients here."
"Overcrowded?" The old nurse's mouth twitched, "Take a look around..."
Come to think of it, I was so focused on pushing the patient that I didn't really pay attention to the scene in the hospital.
All along the corridor, there were patients lying down, with the beds almost touching each other. Some of the poor patients couldn't find a bed, so they had to sit on the benches while waiting to see the patient and vomit.
Everywhere you look, hospital beds are being pushed around like racing cars...
"Are you kidding me?!" Wiping the cold sweat from his head, the male paramedic swallowed his saliva.
"I hope I'm wrong!" The old nurse sighed deeply, returned to the emergency room, and began her "endless" work.
At the same time, the phone in the municipal office kept ringing like a roar, and the heads of each district were standing in front of the mayor's office and stamping their feet.
Not to mention those reporters who take advantage of every opportunity...
The municipal building was completely surrounded by interview vehicles, and everyone was waiting for the government's explanation and solution.
Xu Zhe's plan was indeed thorough. In just a few hours, more than one-third of the city's citizens were poisoned, and the number was still increasing.
Even the central government was completely shaken. Medical teams of tens of thousands of people poured into this turbulent city from all directions. The scene was so lively that it had never been so lively even during the ** period.
The mayor issued the order while wiping his sweaty head, demanding that the cause of the citizens' mass poisoning be found within 24 hours and a method of detoxification be found within 72 hours.
The former is almost not difficult at all. Just ask a few patients and you will find out that the problem lies in the tap water.
But when the experts took samples for testing, they couldn't find anything unusual...
Let alone detoxification, a research team consisting of dozens of experts from various fields has been studying for a long time, but they can't even find out what the pathogen is...
The whole city was in a state of panic, but fortunately, although many people were infected, no one was reported dead. The only symptom was vomiting, and the people were almost unable to live or die.
In this regard, the Paranormal Investigation Department was much luckier. No matter how many people were sent to the hospital, the Paranormal Investigation Department was still fully present, simply because everyone's desk was filled with mineral water...
Meanwhile, Yaqi was watching the news on TV and enjoying his delicious dinner. The vomiting scenes did not affect Yaqi's appetite at all, but made him eat with a smile on his face, shaking his head and sighing from time to time.
"Sir, what do you think about this mass poisoning incident..." The boy took two steps forward, holding the expensive red wine and filling the empty wine glass for his master, thinking about something.
"No doubt, no one except Xu Zhe has such ability." Picking up the half-full wine glass, Yaqi knew what Tongzi was thinking, "This guy's thinking mode is simply a monster. Sometimes you think he is as kind as an angel? Sometimes you think he is as evil as a devil?"
“Sir, if he continues to make such a fuss, it may affect our feast in 14 days…” The boy’s meaning was already very clear.
"It doesn't matter. We are just a foil. The important thing is to see how capable that guy Daitengu is. Our job is to attract everyone's attention... be it humans or gods... all living beings must know that we are here... Isn't Xu Zhe helping us with the most effective 'propaganda'?" After taking a sip of the red wine in the glass, Yaqi had never thought that wine tasted so good. "Keep watching and see what else that guy can do. I am looking forward to his performance..."
I raised my glass to the TV as a token of my highest respect for Xu Zhe's "masterpiece".
This battle between humans and monsters had already been heated up before it officially started...
It was not until the bright moon was in the sky again that Xu Zhe woke up from his sleep. With messy hair and untidy pajamas, he walked out of the room barefoot.
Tiechui and Wu Qian were seen sitting in front of the TV in the living room watching the report. Tiechui looked shocked, while Wu Qian was filled with guilt.
"Xu Zhe, look at what you've done!" Wu Qian pointed to the flickering picture on the TV, where more than a dozen students with pale faces were sent to the ward. "Is this the effect you want?"
"Tiechui, how many people have been infected?" Yawning, Xu Zhe walked into the kitchen with an indifferent attitude.
"Oh my goodness, according to reports, 13 million people have been infected with the unknown virus. The city has ordered all citizens not to drink raw water." Tiechui was not as angry as Wu Qian. On the contrary, he was extremely excited, like a child who had just played a prank.
“The figures released by the government are never true. We have to add at least 30% to this data to get close to the actual number of infections. And this number will increase tomorrow... The poison I put in you can’t be eliminated by simply filtering or cooking it..." Xu Zhe leisurely took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and drank it.
"Xu Zhe, have you ever thought about how this will end? Is it right to use everyone's suffering to realize your plan?" Wu Qian was confused, and her sense of justice was distorted.
"Their suffering is saving their own lives..." Xu Zhe did not have a trace of doubt, his tone was firm, "If everything goes well, they will return to normal in 15 days and return to their previous lives, living a happy life with their wives, lovers, children, and mistresses.
Without these fifteen days of suffering, their only outcome would have been death.
Watching someone you care about die...
Let the people who care about you watch you die...
No matter how they die, their lives will be devoured by those damn wandering monsters.
Stop thinking of yourself as pure and innocent and look at the world we live in now…
God has abandoned us...
If you want to survive, you must learn to endure and save yourself..."
Xu Zhe was not giving any passionate speech, nor was he trying to shock people.
It is just stating a fact that does not need to be debated, telling innocent people the truth about the world.
Maybe Xu Zhe's method is really too cruel and ruthless, but in his opinion, this is the fastest way to make people grow up.
If you want to survive, grow up...
The night passed by unknowingly...
