After the whole species mutated, I hung up

Under Sister Li's withered palm, the place where she was covering was the aorta on the side of the neck. At this time, on the skin outside the aorta, there were three deep wounds, which were radial, centered on a point, and extended outwards, almost across the entire neck.

Lu Mian leaned closer and took a closer look, "It should be bitten by something. This thing...sucks blood? Or it sucks other things, such as water, and it sucks at an extremely fast speed."

Lin Feng also took a closer look, "What could it be?"

Lu Mian looked at the three scars and fell into deep thought. He always felt that he seemed to have seen such wounds before, but he couldn't remember them for a while.

He straightened up, covered Sister Li with the blanket again, and then took the flashlight from Lin Feng's hand, "Let's go out first."

A few people came out slowly, Lao Wang and Brother Chen took Xiaosun out of the door and squatted, Lao Wang couldn't hold back his craving for cigarettes, squatted at the door, and smoked, the cigarette butts that were clearly extinguished burned silently.

Lu Mian took a flashlight and looked around the dark room, and Lin Feng followed behind him.

Lin Feng: "It's very late now, the light from the candles is limited, why don't we go back first and come back tomorrow?"

Lu Mian turned around and smiled at Lin Feng, "It's okay, Brother Lin came to look for me in the middle of the night because he was worried that the thing that attacked Sister Li would appear again at some point? Xiao Sun was right Wrong, the doors and windows here are all closed, but Sister Li was still murdered, we'd better find her as soon as possible."

The two walked around the whole room, but did not see any useful clues, so Lu Mian joined the ranks of squatting at the door a little frustrated.

He sat down next to the door frame, staring at the basin of apples on the ground.

At this moment, a flash of lightning flashed outside the window, and the room was instantly bright as day, and a second later, it returned to darkness.

Lu Mian: "..."

He seemed to see something just now, it was on the ground...

A second bolt of lightning flashed across, and the room lit up again.

Lu Mian raised her eyebrows, reached for the flashlight that was put aside, got up and walked towards the house.

He looked left and right, then took a few steps back, turned on the flashlight, put the flashlight on the ground, and he followed suit on the ground.

Brother Chen: "Little Lu?"

Lu Mian adjusted the direction of the light and stopped at a certain position, "Do you want to take a look?"

Hearing this, several people stood up one after another and walked towards the living room.

On the ground, the adjusted flashlight light source shines all the way to the direction of the bathroom, and on the ground where this beam of light shines, there is a shimmering thing with a width of □□[-] centimeters that appears in everyone's eyes. There are messy footprints all around.

Old Wang: "What is this?"

Lin Feng: "Looks like glue?"

Lu Mian stood up and walked to the door of the bathroom along the trace, "This should not be some glue, but rather a trace of something crawling with mucus. It has been almost destroyed. It is not very clear. Trouble. Get the flashlight here."

Brother Chen took a few steps forward, took another flashlight from the table and handed it to Lu Mian: "Use this one, and leave that one there."

Lu Mian hummed, then turned on the flashlight, lay down again, and looked for the ground.

This time, he found two traces in total.

He called everyone over, then stood up, pointed to the thinner mark on the ground and said: "This one seems to have climbed up from the floor drain. Look, the filter screen of this floor drain has been pushed up. The other one The big, connected place is the toilet."

Old Wang was too lazy to use his brain, he opened his eyes and asked directly: "So what is this?"

Lu Mian thought for a while, and then replied: "I only have a rough guess. Judging from these two traces, the thing should have climbed up from the floor drain, and then crawled all the way to the living room... Wait!"

At this moment, Lu Mian seemed to remember something, picked up the flashlight on the ground and walked to the bedroom. In front of Sister Li's window, he bowed to the figure on the bed three times as usual, and then opened Sister Li's door again. The white blanket on the body.

He walked out of the window and shone the flashlight on Sister Li's soles.

Lin Feng: "What's wrong?"

Lu Mian frowned, and started looking for it. Finally, he found a small wound between his two toes, "Look at this wound."

Several people approached one after another and took a closer look.

The wound is very small, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.

On the crease between the two toes, three radial wounds are exactly the same as the huge wound on the neck artery!

Lu Mian visually inspected the distance from the position of his feet to his neck, and couldn't help hissing, taking a breath.

Lu Mian: "If I'm not wrong, the thing was originally very small. It crawled up from the floor drain in the bathroom and climbed all the way to the living room. Sister Li accidentally stepped on it, and it sucked blood on the bottom of Sister Li's feet. , fed her own body, then climbed up along Sister Li's feet, and bit the aorta of the neck..."

That's why Sister Li's feet have such an unnatural twist.

After figuring this out, Lu Mian felt a little nervous: "This thing seems to contain a certain amount of neurotoxin, which can make people lose their ability to resist, otherwise, when it was still young, it is entirely possible for Sister Li to mess with this thing." Come down, how can you let that thing suck itself dry?"

Speaking of this, Lu Mian paused, and then said: "And, judging from the two completely different traces on the ground, its appetite is a bottomless pit, and it can completely suck a person, but only let its little thumb The size has grown to a size of nearly one meter wide, and it is not exhausted. If it sucks a second person, will it continue to grow?"

Several people frowned, and after covering Sister Li's body, they filed out again, facing the trace on the floor of the living room with a bitter expression on their faces.

Brother Chen: "Climbing up from the sewer means that this thing lives in a wet place, or in water, and it can suck blood, and it still has mucus on its body. Everyone, I... thought of something. …”

Old Wang: "Me too..."

Lin Feng: "Me too..."

Xiao Sun: "..."

Lu Mian shook goosebumps all over the ground, "You should be right, it should be a leech."

Leeches generally live at the bottom of water with many rocks, or at the bottom of pools. They can also be seen in sewers and everywhere in paddy fields. They are quite disgusting things.

Lu Mian sighed and said, "However, normal leeches don't have such a big appetite. What they suck is blood from the capillaries, but the one that attacked Sister Li sucked directly from the aorta, which is unreasonable..."

Hearing this, Brother Chen couldn't help complaining: "The butterfly with a human face is also unreasonable, and the queen butterfly is even more outrageous. This world has gone crazy, and it is not impossible to have such a leech."

Lightning flashed outside the window again, and the rain became heavier.

Lu Mian, who was standing by the window, paused, and seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye.

Since Queen Huna came back, his eyes have been different, not only has a much wider field of vision, but also is more sensitive to moving things.

In the short second or two when the lightning flashed on, even if he wasn't facing the window, he could still see the objects wriggling on the outer wall.

He picked up the flashlight and shone it towards the outer wall.

On the damp outer wall, yellow and black molluscs are crawling up the wall in groups. They are of different shapes and sizes, but without exception, it makes one's scalp tingle!

This is exactly the leech they just guessed!

Old Wang: "I'm stupid! There are so many!"

Lu Mian took a flashlight and looked around, and saw a particularly large leech in the atrium.

Compared with it, the battery car on the side looks petite!

Lu Mian gasped, and said hastily: "It must have been raining recently, which expanded their range of activities. No, we don't know how big the appetite of these leeches is. If anyone encounters them, It's going to be sucked dry, we need to call everyone!"

Lao Wang rubbed his arms, "I have a loudspeaker, and it's in Building 3, 202. If I want to inform everyone, it's too inefficient to go door-to-door, or..."

At this moment, a terrified scream resounded through the night, shocking everyone!

The community immediately boiled up, and something happened in the community. Everyone was so nervous about the cries for help at this time, so people kept asking loudly.

"How many buildings and zeros! Tell me quickly!"

"Building 3! Upstairs, high-rise!"

"I'm next door! Building 3, 1001! I'll go first! Hurry up!"

As a result, the door opened one after another.

Lu Mian's face changed, "Not good! It's too dangerous to go out at this time! Let's go!"

After finishing speaking, several people ignored other things and ran downstairs to Building 3 one after another.

When we left the hall on the first floor, the raindrops were so big that people couldn’t open their eyes, but Lu Mian didn’t feel it at all. He looked up to the building, and the places where the flashlight passed were full of leeches, which were in the shape of long strips. Use the suction cup to move upwards in one bend.

Lu Mian: "Brother Wang, you and Xiao Sun go to get the loudspeaker, Brother Lin and Brother Chen go directly to 1001, remember, once you get the loudspeaker, tell everyone what we know!"

Lao Wang made a gesture to express his understanding, and they were divided into two groups on the second floor, and Lu Mian followed Lin Feng and Brother Chen to climb directly up.

Lu Mian observed the two people in front of him. Lin Feng had been a soldier, so it was understandable that he had good physical strength. What he didn't expect was Brother Chen.

Brother Chen was very thin, and he didn't seem to have much flesh on his body, but he was able to keep up with Lin Feng's footsteps without blushing or panting.

What he didn't know was that the two people in front had turned their heads to look at him more than once.

Due to staying at home for a long time and not getting much exposure to the sun, Lu Mian's complexion is very fair and he doesn't look very strong. Both Lin and Chen were worried that he would not be able to keep up with such high-intensity physical exertion, but after several observations However, they found that this fair and clean young man followed behind them effortlessly. It seemed that he still had some strength left?

The author has something to say:

I searched a lot of videos of leeches, and the whole person is not very well......
