"How can a dead thing squirm?"

Ogami demonstrated and said, "Look."

He stretched out his fingers towards the moss. When his fingers were half an arm's length away from the moss, the moss seemed to feel his fingers and twisted into a group, wanting to touch his fingers.

Ogami withdrew his fingers, peeled off a piece of dried blood scab from the bone prosthetic hand, and threw it towards the moss.

"Look again."

Chen Yan watched the moss swallow up the blood scab in an instant.

In his spiritual vision, a blush spread among the gray-white moss.

The next moment, there was a third color in the gray - that extremely beautiful emerald green, spreading like waves in the moss.

"They consume the blood and make it their life force."

Ogami said:

"Plants that can swallow blood are not common."

Chen Yan was silent for a moment and nodded:

"Yes... I think this thing should be the spore of some kind of fungus, because fungi include Haemophilus and Hemolyticus, and both genera have bacteria that can swallow blood..."

He paused and added:

"Of course, maybe this is an unusual creature that has never been discovered."

The way he looked at these bloodthirsty bacteria suddenly changed.

"If we can't handle it, why not just hand it over to the zoo..."

After saying this, he felt that it was unreliable. If he gave this thing to the zoo, he and Gotlind would not be able to get along with each other in the future.

Ogami said: "In any case, they have no biological activity and only rely on the blood they get to replenish their lives. Such things... are no different from zombies."

Chen Yan looked at the bloodthirsty strain that was "jumping" in the plastic bag, recalled what Ogami had just described in the basement, and had some guesses in his mind.
