After getting the clue from Old Mrs. Lin, someone went to retrieve the cafeteria's surveillance footage.

The food and accommodation provided by the animal laboratory is different from that of other units. Some larger factories have their own canteens, but the animal laboratory has few staff, so it shares a small canteen with several nearby laboratories.

The food supply in the small canteen is relatively good, and because it is shared with the cultivation laboratory, all kinds of fresh ingredients and fruits are supplied to the small canteen first, and the chefs are also the best of the best.

It can be said that, except for a few people who are particularly particular about food or are not used to the taste, no one in the Anping base would dislike eating in the small canteen.

There was no need to check the surveillance footage. After checking the number of times the meal card in Xiao Wang's name was used, everyone realized something was wrong.

It has been several weeks since Xiao Wang started working, but he has not eaten a single meal in the cafeteria and there is no record of his meal card being used.

When we contacted Mrs. Lin again, she said she had never seen him go to the vegetable market, so we checked the communication records on his communicator and found that he had not called anyone other than his colleagues, so it was naturally impossible for him to order takeout.

Shi Weiming touched his chin and asked, "What kind of people don't need to go to the cafeteria to eat?"

Gu Zisu continued, "Even if he is not used to the taste of the cafeteria, he has to go to the cafeteria to eat once before he knows that it is not delicious. This person has never eaten in the cafeteria, and it is a small cafeteria that is famous for its good food. He is also a survivor found on a small island with few resources. Generally speaking, when such survivors come, don't they usually go to the cafeteria to have a big meal first?"

Mo Qingxue thought about it, contacted the staff in the interrogation room, and said, "Ask Mrs. Lin if she has ever smelled the stench of a rotting corpse on Xiao Wang?"

Shi Weiming and Gu Zisu were a little confused when they heard Mo Qingxue's question.

The staff was also puzzled, but still repeated Mo Qingxue's question.

After listening to what happened, Mrs. Lin thought about it, nodded, and said, "Xiao Wang looks like me, he is socially anxious and doesn't like to talk. He hardly interacts with other people. He also dislikes others getting too close to him. But I work with him, so sometimes I have to stand closer. When he stood upwind, I smelled a faint odor from him. I thought it was because the boy didn't like to take a bath or keep clean. Now that I think about it, that odor is a bit familiar. I should have smelled it before. What was it?"

Mo Qingxue asked: "Have you ever seen a zombie before? Does this smell like a zombie?"

Mrs. Lin, who heard the question, looked up suddenly and said, "Yes! It smells like zombies, but not that bad."

Now, not only the people in the interrogation room, but also Gu Zisu and Shi Weiming widened their eyes.

Gu Zisu said in disbelief: "This Xiao Wang...is he a zombie?"

No one had thought about it in this direction before, because no matter how you look at it, Xiao Wang looks like a human being, and a large number of zombie alarms have been set up where he works, but none of the alarms have ever gone off.

Mo Qingxue's expression was not happy when she got a positive answer to her guess. She said to others, "I have encountered a high-level zombie king in Qing City. It has a high level of intelligence. It also knows to take a bath, and the odor on its body is relatively light. Is there a possibility that Xiao Wang is not a human, but a zombie king?

"Do you remember that a train disappeared in Jiangzhou? Xiao Sang went to investigate and could not see the footage. Later we concluded that the train was affected by the mechanical failure and teleportation abilities. Could this incident be related to Xiao Wang?"

Mo Qingxue asked Mrs. Lin on the other side of the screen: "Anything else? What else do you think is wrong with Xiao Wang?"

Mrs. Lin thought about it carefully and said, "He didn't go to the cafeteria when we were having lunch at noon. He went into the toilet and didn't come out. He stayed in the toilet for the whole afternoon, and when he came back, I could smell that he was even more smelly. It wasn't the faint zombie smell, but another complex smell. Let me think... what was that smell?"

Everyone held their breath and waited patiently.

If it’s not the smell of zombies, then what is it?

Mrs. Lin thought about it carefully for a while, and suddenly realized: "That's right, it smells like the sewer!"

sewer!

The entire sewer system of the base was rebuilt and put into use after the water plant was built. It was impossible for all the water pipes to be laid over the ground.

With the assistance of earth-type mutants, a tap water system was built at the Anping base.

Mo Qingxue slapped the table and said, "Send someone to check his laboratory and the sewer near where he disappeared. Be careful! Set the alarm value of the defense watch to a lower level."

The patrol leader immediately said, "Okay, Base Commander, I'll lead the team out right away!"

The patrol team members immediately set out. As soon as they set out, the security team leader called and said, "Base commander, we have sent all the items found in the homes of the residents who have mutated into zombies to the laboratory for testing.

"The cockroaches in their house have also mutated. When we entered, the cockroaches jumped on us and started biting us. They are also larger than the common cockroaches in the south."

Ever since Mo Qingxue knew that Xiao Wang could accelerate animal reproduction, she has always felt vaguely uneasy.

After hearing the report from the security captain, she finally understood where the uneasiness came from.

Xiao Wang is a zombie himself, so it is not difficult for him to infect animals into zombies. He can also speed up the reproduction of these zombie-like mutated animals.

The species he chose was also very tricky, he actually chose cockroaches.

Soon Mo Qingxue saw the photos sent back by the security captain. The mutated cockroaches had grown a little bigger, but they did not mutate to an exaggerated degree. They looked like larger cockroaches.

In this direction, the security team carefully examined the two zombies and found small wounds on their bodies caused by cockroach bites.

Wounds were also found on the bodies of those who were found to be carrying the zombie virus.

Now a new question arises: where does Xiao Wang usually breed this kind of cockroaches? Are there more of these cockroaches in the Anping base? How many have been bred? Is this the only cockroach he breeds?

Not far from the animal laboratory, fully armed staff wearing the latest version of protective clothing equipped with air purifiers and oxygen systems opened the manhole cover and crawled in.

Before reaching the most core section of the road, the defense watch detected the signal.

Going further in, you will find Xiao Wang’s secret base. The specific scene is very disgusting.

The drone flew in and transmitted the images back. At the first glance, everyone in the conference room felt goosebumps.

This reinforced room was filled with three layers of mutated cockroaches.

The only thing to be thankful for is that this group of cockroaches have not yet run outside in large numbers.

The door of the room was quickly closed, and the patrol members killed the cockroaches that had already flown out, and only caught a few for experimental research.

The patrol captain called Mo Qingxue and asked, "Base Commander, what should we do with those mutant cockroaches?"
