Chapter 32: Giant Centipede
Hearing the gunfire, Chu Fei and Liu Min stopped at the same time, turned around with heavy faces, and looked in the direction of the building together.
Beibei, who was held in Liu Min's arms, had tears in his eyes and called him uncle in a low voice. Seeing this, Liu Min said Beibei was good, reached out and stroked Beibei's head to comfort him.
A few people walked along the street. Near a park, Beibei suddenly stopped and looked at the slide in the distance.
This is the place where Beibei's mother often takes her to play, and the past is vivid in her mind. The situation in the pet shop also makes Beibei more worried about her mother and wants to find her quickly.
"Uncle, Beibei misses her mother! Beibei wants to go home!"
Beibei grabbed Chu Fei's collar with his hand, and looked at Chu Fei with tears in his eyes. Chu Fei then squatted down, stroked her head, made her obedient, and promised to take her home.
Beibei stopped crying, nodded obediently, bit her lip and said she was obedient. According to Beibei's recollection, her family lived in a place called Garden Community, and there was a bank nearby.
Every day when her mother goes to work, she takes her past a kindergarten. Among the shops on the roadside is a department store called Sanmao.
Relying on these clues, Chu Fei used the help of the system to search for Beibei's home in his brain. After finding a community with the same description, the system gave a route map.
On the ground in front of Chu Fei, dotted arrows began to appear, guiding Chu Fei forward. After walking for about twenty minutes, they finally found the place.
The road in front of the community was crowded with many abandoned vehicles, and two zombies were wandering around. Chu Fei handed Beibei to Liu Min, stepped forward and killed the zombies with a knife.
Lying on Liu Min's back, Beibei stared blankly at one of the car windows. Following her line of sight, she saw that it was a private car with a small green dinosaur tied to the rearview mirror of the car.
Beibei recognized that this was exactly her mother’s car!
The door of this car was wide open, there was no one inside, and the car key was still in the car. It looked like he was leaving in a hurry.
Passing between the vehicles and approaching the community, Chu Fei saw bloodstains on the ground. A small rabbit doll with one arm torn off was discarded at the door of the unit building.
Beibei stepped forward and picked up the rabbit doll. It belonged to a child she often played with. It must have encountered something unexpected.
Entering the unit building, Chu Fei pressed the elevator and found that it could still be used. Looking at the dark stairwell, he felt that it was safer to take the elevator.
"Beibei, do you still remember which floor your family lives on?"
The elevator door slowly closed. Chu Fei turned around and asked Beibei, who was looking excited and happy to be able to go home soon. Hearing the sound, Beibei showed a thoughtful expression.
Recalling that her mother once taught her to press a button above the number key 6, Beibei asked Chu Fei to pick her up and stretched out her index finger to press the button on the 9th floor.
When the elevator started operating, Liu Min touched Beibei's head and praised her for being awesome. When the elevator ascended to the fifth floor, there was a sudden sound above his head. Chu Fei took out the knife vigilantly and stared at the top of the elevator with one eye.
Something fell on the elevator!
The light above his head flickered a few times. Liu Min looked nervous and hid in a corner of the elevator holding Beibei. Chu Fei was also ready to fight.
At this time, the elevator had reached the ninth floor, and the elevator door slowly opened. Chu Fei rushed out of the elevator with a knife, but found that there was no one outside, and there was not a single figure in the aisle.
Seeing that everything was safe, Chu Fei asked Liu Min to take Beibei out.
Standing in the hallway, Liu Min asked Beibei which house was hers. Beibei thought for a while, pointed to the door on the right, then pointed to a pot of flowers on the ground, and said the key was under the flower pot.
Sure enough, when Chu Fei picked up the flower pot, he found a key underneath.
After turning the door lock and opening the door, Chu Fei walked to the switch and turned on the lights in the living room. The home was very warmly decorated and kept clean. There were many photos of Beibei and his mother posted on a refrigerator.
"Mom, Beibei is back! Mom, where are you? Mom! Mom..."
Beibei began to search from room to room. Every time he opened a door, he felt more disappointed.
After opening all the doors, her mother was not found. Beibei bit her lips in disappointment, her big eyes filled with tears.
Chu Fei took out the milk bottle from his backpack and handed it to Beibei, but Beibei only wanted his mother, so he reached out and knocked the bottle down. Chu Fei and Liu Min looked at each other and sighed together.
At this moment, the door handle was suddenly turned. Seeing this, Beibei thought that her mother was back, and ran over to open the door excitedly.
Chu Fei felt vaguely that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted to Beibei not to open the door! As soon as Beibei walked to the door, he also noticed that something was wrong. People outside the door started to knock on the door, which scared Beibei and backed away.
After a while of impact, a hand suddenly broke into the door and grabbed the wooden board directly. Looking at a black arm with a faint red light, Chu Fei hurriedly ran forward, picked up Beibei, and returned to the
In the middle of the living room.
Immediately afterwards, a familiar figure crawled in from the hole. Looking at the person's clothes, Beibei called out "Mom" excitedly.
Chu Fei hugged the struggling Beibei tightly. The woman in front of him, with red eyes, a human upper body, and a centipede body connected to the lower body, showing a pair of fangs, was no longer her mother.
"Mom! Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Beibei stared with her big innocent eyes, thinking that this monster was still her mother. After hearing her voice, the centipede monster was stunned for a moment, then opened its big mouth and roared at them.
The monster's body was very large, and what they saw was only a small part of the monster's entire body.
This is a fourth-level mutant centipede that evolved by eating other zombies. The mother body is Beibei's mother. Those little mutant centipedes use Beibei's mother as a nest, lay eggs in her belly, and hatch out small centipedes.
Eventually it merged with her body and became one.
While staring at the monster, the system sent a prompt that inside this giant centipede, there was the evolutionary bug Chu Fei needed.
Oops!
While Chu Fei was stunned, the centipede raised a sharp long leg, bypassed him, and attacked Liu Min and Beibei behind him.
Liu Min screamed in fright, and Chu Fei quickly turned into a violent state. Before the giant centipede could hurt them, he cut off the centipede's legs with one knife. The centipede roared in pain.
A ball of something like spider silk quickly spurted out from Beibei's mother's abdomen and a big open mouth. Chu Fei was unable to dodge, and his whole body was fixed to the wall.
"What is this?"
Chu Fei tried to break free, but found that as he struggled, the thing shrank tighter and tighter, and in the end he couldn't even lift his arm.
Then, the centipede crashed through the wall, took Chu Fei out of the building, and slammed his body to the ground.
"uncle……"
"Xiao Fei!"
