"By the way, after talking so much, why not give it a try, boys?" The aroma of wine lingered for a long time, and the old man seemed like he couldn't wait any longer, and was about to start pouring wine to a few people.

At this moment, the plundering gang finally showed their faces.

"Old man, you're not trying to stun us with this wine, are you?" Someone took out a knife.

"Ah." The old man said with a surprised expression: "Why do you think so, why... why do you want to go under the knife?"

"It's the same thing to kill him and then drink and get money." Someone said: "This is a good habitat. When the apocalypse breaks out, you can roll up something and run away."

"Move quickly."

The young man took out the knife and stepped forward. Just as he was about to attack the old man, he saw a strange smile appear on the hunched old man's face.

The young man opened his mouth, but found that he could no longer make any sound.

The aroma of wine floating in the air became more and more intense and intoxicating.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"!

There were several sounds of bodies falling to the ground, extremely heavy.

Several people fell to the ground, their weapons fell to the ground, but their bodies seemed to be numb and could no longer move.

The old man bowed his back and put on a strange smile as he resealed the lid of the wine. Then, he pressed his hand on the bar, revealing a deep passage.

He dragged those people's torn sack-like bodies one by one, and dragged the desperate people in one by one.

"cluster".

The candle suddenly lit up again, and the tavern at night returned to silence.

The slightly opened wooden door looks like the mouth of a grown beast, waiting for travelers who are confused about their future.

…

"...something's wrong."

In the room upstairs, a black-haired girl stood by the window, her face brightened by the lights. She opened her gentle eyes and looked out at the night lights of the city.

The wooden bed made a squeaking noise, and there was a damp, musty smell of wooden boards in the March air.

Since it was time to rest, Su Mingan temporarily turned off the live broadcast. He sat on the bed and held his forehead to relieve the remaining dizziness.

"...Ah." He raised his eyelids, revealing his red eyes: "What did you say?"

"The smell of blood." Yueyue said, "It's obvious."

"Your nose is more sensitive." Su Mingan lay down directly on the bed: "...but this kind of thing basically does not need analysis."

"Why?"

"What can be deduced is after all the clues are connected." Su Mingan said: "It is obviously a disease that requires mushroom treatment, but the price of mushrooms is surprisingly cheap. Obviously, those very cheap [mushrooms],

They are not [mushrooms] needed to treat diseases.”

Yueyue's long eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly thought of Su Ming'an's terrifying description of the scenes in the laboratory.

——The things that can be made into vaccines are grown from those corpses...those mushrooms?

"A black shop like this is probably a mushroom cultivation center." Su Mingan yawned: "The whole city first uses high prices to exclude outsiders who can't get jobs, and then deceives those outsiders who are unprepared and don't have money to come here.

Plant a seemingly good place to stay, trap them, and grow mushrooms on their bodies... Selling mushrooms to treat those who are sick to make huge profits. The whole city is a huge crematorium."

He put his hands on his face to block the dazzling light:

"Anything can happen in the world... Those who benefit from isolating a group by whether they are sick or not can use this method of labeling others to list people who are suitable to be called mushrooms.

And suitable for people "saved" by mushrooms.

They go to sin with a red face and think they are great because of it.

——And in a place like this, it is never disease that kills people, but their own greed..."

Yueyue stood for a long time facing the cold night wind and felt her body was a little cold.

She turned her head slightly, trying to put on some clothes, only to find that the person lying on the bed had already fallen asleep.

She heard a knock at the door.

The old man's hoarse voice, as hoarse as sawing a door panel, sounded outside the door:

"Young man, little girl, would you like to order some drinks or snacks? You haven't eaten yet."

While the old man was talking, Yueyue smelled a very obvious smell of blood.

Without making a sound, she tiptoed to the door, and then gently put her face close to the cat's eye.

——She met the old man's dark eyes, which were like a quagmire and made people addicted.

Empty and dead, like a pair of black eye sockets, with nothing in them.

She was startled by her own thoughts and looked over again, but she couldn't see anything.

A numbing trembling sensation gently ran down her back. She swallowed and moved her steps slightly to get the sword in the grid of her backpack.

"...Why don't you talk? Are you asleep?" She heard the old man murmuring outside the door.

"Creak."

The wooden boards made a crisp sound, which was particularly obvious in the empty environment.

The old man outside the door, with his hands still stained with blood, was carrying a basket of beautiful mushrooms.

When he heard the obvious sound of wooden planks inside the door, his smile spread from the corners of his mouth to the corners of his eyes in an instant. His smile was too terrifying to look like a normal human being.

"...It turns out, it's inside."

Yueyue was agitated and immediately wanted to wake up Su Mingan, but found that the door that had been tightly locked had been opened at some point.

"Squeak——"

The old man with eyes like will-o'-the-wisps and his whole body stained with large amounts of black blood was grinning at her through the crack in the door that was gradually opening.

Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and a steel pipe rubbed against Yueyue's hair, directly knocking the old man upside down.

【——HP-120!】

Su Ming'an, who was on the bed, rubbed her still sore head and sat up, with a look of sleepiness in her eyes.

He picked up another intact steel pipe, walked a few steps over the old man who was still struggling under the steel pipe, and stabbed it in, causing a large blood splash to splash on the wall.

【——HP-600! (Fatal injury, penetrating injury!)】

A few drops splashed on his face. He wiped it with his hand and applied it again without mercy.

Yueyue stood aside and looked at him with blood on his hand. She didn't say anything, but turned around and started to make the bed.

Without even looking at the miserable death of the old man, Su Mingan walked to the bedside and wiped the blood-stained steel pipe with the curtains, stuffed it into his backpack, and then went to pick up the body.

…

A series of message reminders sounded the moment Su Mingan collected the mushrooms.

"Mushrooms that can be made into vaccines?" Yueyue hugged the quilt and took a look: "...it has a very obvious smell of blood."

"A vaccine made with other people's lives is called a vaccine of salvation." Su Mingan pinched the mushroom, and what came out was not fresh juice, but a bright red liquid like human blood: "It's quite ironic...wait a minute

, what are you doing holding the quilt?"

Su Mingan looked at the girl twisting around holding the big sheet.

"Change rooms." Yueyue said.

She yawned, with a little sparkle secreting from the corners of her eyes, and walked lazily.

"Ah, by the way." She turned around and said, "Jumping jump game."

Su Ming'an was stunned for a moment, and then thought for a while before he understood what she was talking about.

Yueyue and he have been friends for several years. They usually live close to each other, and he also drags her to play some games together, such as Mario and Breakup Kitchen... But she always plays in a mess and gets to the extreme, and soon he

I don't want to play with her.

However, this girl just clung to him as if she had no friends. She kept clamoring to play with him as if she was seeing the door to a new world.

He knew that Yueyue's family conditions were not good and her temperament was withdrawn. Maybe she had not been exposed to those things before, which led to her temporary addiction.

But he refused to be a noob.
