Xiao Mo was looking at others, and others were also looking at him carefully.
Jeans, a blue short-sleeved shirt, and beach sandals. Judging from the attire, he looks very simple.
There are a lot of stains and damage on the shirt caused by the fight, which makes it look a bit embarrassing, but it does not affect the overall temperament.
Keep watching. She has a slender figure, at least 180 centimeters by visual inspection. Short hair that doesn't reach the ears, neat and tidy. He has thick black eyebrows, lively eyes, close-fitting ears, a high nose and square mouth, and extremely clear facial features. He is paired with an angular, slightly square oval face. Although he is not very handsome, he has a tough guy style.
This man has also developed good muscles and has a healthy complexion that has been tanned by the sun. Just from the appearance alone, he is very different from most weak otakus nowadays.
Everyone is affected by the first impression. Fang Zhenggang obviously had a good first impression of the man in front of him. He withdrew his appraising gaze and no longer spoke as aggressively as at the beginning. He asked in a harmonious voice: "What's your last name?"
"My surname is Xiao, Xiao Mo. Caotou Xiao, it's the end of the weekend. Hello, police officer!" Xiao Mo appropriately made himself look a little nervous, but not too much.
"It's a very interesting name. I'm Fang Zhenggang. I'm here to investigate some things here. I'd like to ask Mr. Xiao for more help in the future."
"Haha, that's right. Officer Fang, is there anything else you can do?"
"Bought for your child?" Fang Zhenggang pointed to the children's supplies in the car basket, and it was only then that he noticed the child next to Xiao Mo, but he just glanced at it and didn't pay much attention to it.
"Yes." Xiao Mo said vaguely.
"Mr. Xiao, have you noticed how things started?" Fang Zhenggang suddenly asked.
"Uh..." Xiao Mo's heart condensed, and he secretly cursed this third-level police officer for being too cunning. He first made friends to make people relax, and then made surprise inquiries to make people reveal their flaws. It was too dark, even worse than a blackmail!
"I remembered what you said. When I was shopping, I saw a young woman and a young man fighting for a pack of chocolates..." Xiao Mo recalled while describing the scene in as much detail as possible. Come out, because there is no trace of lies, it sounds more real.
Fang Zhenggang nodded while listening. In fact, he had already heard the patrol officer report the same thing to him, but only now did he know that Xiao Mo had also been one of the participants at the scene.
After explaining what happened, Xiao Mo seemed to be very embarrassed, scratched his hair, lowered his head and said with a smile: "Um... you are talking to me, do you think I also... ahem, ate something from the supermarket? I'm sorry, I "I was confused at the time. Seeing everyone eating, I took advantage of it because I was greedy and ate a lot of fruit and drank a lot of yogurt."
Without waiting for Fang Zhenggang to react, Xiao Mo immediately raised his head and said: "I can accompany Qian. I'm really sorry. I was confused at the time. You won't detain me, right? I still have children to take care of. I, I was really I didn’t think too much about it, I just saw everyone eating, and I thought it didn’t matter if I just ate a little, just... Now that I think about it, I’m really embarrassed!”
Fang Zhenggang's mouth twitched, with a half-smile expression on his face.
Xiao Mo seemed to be getting more and more ashamed, lowering his head to show that he recognized his mistake.
He had no choice but to take the initiative to confess his sins, because he had an obvious big loophole waiting for him.
There were so many people in the supermarket, and more than one saw him grabbing food. Instead of being recognized as one of the "hungry ghosts" in the future, and then being implicated in the fact that he intended to kill people, it is better to take the initiative to confess now. , first gave the police a preconceived impression, making them think that he was just trying to take advantage, not a real hungry ghost, and had nothing to do with the woman Li Xiaoshuang who was 80% likely to become a missing person.
"Mr. Xiao, what did you say? I didn't hear it clearly. Do you want to say it again?"
"No, I didn't say anything. I said I had to go home early. The chaos that happened in the supermarket just now made our children very scared." Xiao Mo hurriedly got off the donkey along the slope.
Fang Zhenggang asked him some questions again seemingly casually, and Xiao Mo answered them one by one. If he remembered, he would say he remembered, and if he couldn't remember, he would say he couldn't remember. He tried his best to tell the truth and not tell lies.
"When the power went out in the supermarket, where were you? What were you doing? Was anyone else around?"
call! You've been wandering around for a long time, but your ultimate goal is to ask these questions, right? Xiao Mo thought for a moment, put his acting skills to the best of his ability, and replied carelessly: "Because the first floor was too messy, I went to the second floor. I happened to be picking toothbrushes for my children at that time. There were not many people in the daily cosmetics section and there was a power outage. When... I couldn't remember if there was anyone else around."
Fang Zhenggang nodded, thanked Xiao Mo, and turned to leave.
Xiao Mo exhaled, grabbed the child's hand, and quickly pushed the cart to the locker area. His time was getting less and less.
The moment Xiao Mo turned around, Fang Zhenggang turned back to observe Xiao Mo's expression and movements. He didn't see anything strange for a long time.
Chen Bing, who stayed at the exit to check other customers, saw Fang Zhenggang coming back and asked him curiously: "Team Fang, does that person have any information to provide? I see that you have been talking to that person for a long time."
Fang Zhenggang stood with his arms folded, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head, "Nothing, maybe I think too much, and everyone looks like a criminal. By the way, how well do you know Wang Laoer's information?"
"No problem. If I take out the information in my hand, I can lock him up for ten or eight years at any time."
"Well done. Wang Laoer is a rat turd, but the rat that poops is even more disgusting. The people who raise rats and condone rats are not good people either. If you can pull them off this time, pull them all off. If something happens, I'm responsible."
"Drink! Is the boss really angry this time?"
"Those bastards don't even look at what time this is. It's okay for them to take advantage of it. As long as they do their job well, there won't be any public complaints and no one will care about it. But now... this place is a powder keg. , not even a single spark can escape, and they dare to light fires everywhere inside, looking for death!"
At this point, Fang Zhenggang's expression became serious, "Chen Bing, please tell Team Zhang from the armed police later and ask him to temporarily station here tonight. I always feel like something big is going to happen here..."
Fang Zhenggang was not the only one who felt this way. Xiao Mo took the items from the storage cabinet and pushed the shopping cart to the open-air parking lot with the child.
The man looked at the crowd gathered around and had not completely dispersed, feeling an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.
Just walking from the supermarket, many people stared at his shopping cart with red eyes.
There was a child grabbing the hem of his father's clothes, staring at the food in Xiao Mo's car, holding his fingers in his mouth, and kept shouting that he was hungry.
What kind of viral infection is this? Why are people so hungry after recovering without medicine? And after eating for a while, I will feel hungry again, as if I can't get enough.
But the human stomach is so big, where does all the food go? Why doesn’t anyone eat to death
And blood... Why does he feel that blood attracts him more than any food
"You feel attracted to new flesh and blood. A large part of the reason is because the Mother of Gluttony is nearby, which affects your appetite. And hunger is caused by the carbon-based synthetic metal virus and has nothing to do with Gluttony. These are two types of Different viruses." The system suddenly spoke in his mind.
Xiao Mo was a little surprised. This was the first time that this rigid and cold system had given him an additional explanation.
Regardless of what the system was thinking, Xiao Mo took the opportunity to ask: "What is a carbon-based synthetic metal virus?" He didn't know that he asked directly in his mind.
The system paused for a moment, seeming to determine whether this was within the scope of the answer.
"system?"
"It's a virus that allows carbon-based organisms to produce a special synthetic metal."
The system may feel that this answer is a bit perfunctory and adds:
"You will feel that blood is attractive to you because the blood of those carbon-based creatures now contains rich carbon-based alloy molecules, and your body is eager to absorb this alloy molecule. You will often feel hungry, also because of ordinary food It cannot meet your current physical needs.”
Xiao Mo immediately grasped the key point, "Some people produce a kind of alloy particles from their bodies after recovering from illness. Is it related to this virus?"
"Yes. This is the purpose of the carbon-based synthetic metal virus."
"Purpose? To allow humans to produce alloy particles from their bodies? What is the use of this alloy particle? Who needs it?"
The system said coldly: "This answer is not among the necessary conditions to complete the task. You are not qualified to know it at this stage."
"Then when will I be qualified?" Xiao Mo asked patiently.
"Wait until you reach level five."
Xiao Mo felt that he might not even be able to complete the first-level task! This damn heartless system!
"Okay, let's change the question. This question is definitely related to the current task." Xiao Mo asked: "Did the woman named Li Xiaoshuang carry another virus? What kind of virus is it? What harm will it cause?"
The system answered: "The mother of gluttons naturally carries the glutton virus. Carriers of this virus like to eat raw flesh and blood, and will quickly lose all rationality, leaving only the instinctive desire/desire of 'eating'."
"Zombies?"
The system's database also seemed to have the term "zombie" in it, and he quickly replied: "There is a certain similarity."
"What's the difference between the two?"
"The zombies you are talking about mutate after death and are not easy to be killed completely. Those infected with the Gluttonous Beast virus are among the living. They have strong mobility and retain a certain amount of wisdom. Their vital organs are the same as before being infected, including the head, heart, and spine. , massive blood loss, etc. will all cause its death.”
The system continued to explain clearly but mechanically: "Furthermore, the infectivity of the Gluttonous Beast virus is not as strong as that of the zombie virus. Even if the blood is directly infected, there is only a 10% chance of being infected. In addition, wherever the Gluttonous Beast exists, according to its Depending on the ability, the appetite of nearby creatures within ten to a thousand meters will be affected."
Xiao Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face suddenly changed, "Oh no, that woman had bitten someone else before she was recovered. Even if there is only a one-tenth chance... will the virus spread as a result?"
The system replied coldly: "No. The time limit has not yet expired, and the virus of the Mother of Gluttonous Beasts does not have the ability to infect."
“Would that lie dormant and erupt later?”
"Won't."
"How can you be so sure?"
"You can understand it this way. The mother of the gluttonous beast is carrying virus source a. When the time limit comes, virus source a will encounter the inducer and then become the infectious virus b. But before the time limit comes, no virus source a is encountered. Even if the virus source A of the inducer is transferred to another person, it will turn into a non-threatening virus C and will be quickly eliminated by the body."
Xiao Mo finally understood a little bit.
"What is the time limit? What is the inducer?" Xiao Mo couldn't help but ask again.
System, "It is not related to the task. The system will not give any answer. You should concentrate all your attention on completing the task now to avoid being wiped out."
"If this task cannot be completed, or cannot be completed within the time limit, will the gluttonous beast virus spread?"
"yes."
"Can I get this news out?"
The system answered the question completely: "Even if I am dissected, your technological level will not be able to detect my existence."
Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment, and then understood: it was announced, he was arrested, the mission was not completed, he died, and then was dissected, and the system escaped and searched for a new implanter. And if he can complete the recycling task before the time limit is reached, it will be meaningless for him to announce the news, but it will bring him great trouble.
Is this what the system means? In short, no matter whether he announces it or not, it has no damage to it. Anyway, he is the unlucky one!
