The hail has long since stopped, and the sky is still overcast, but the temperature seems to have picked up a bit.

Those who were lucky enough to escape the giant hail without being injured could no longer attend to work and school, and all came out of the building where they had originally taken shelter.

Everyone called their families one after another. Some people let out a long sigh of relief after calling and knowing that the other party was safe. Some people hurriedly stepped over the ice and water on the ground before hanging up the phone and went to the roadside to take a taxi. After finding that they couldn't get a taxi, they had to walk.

Just start running.

After confirming that their family members were safe, the uninjured or slightly injured people began to spontaneously call the ambulance number and helped each other move the unconscious people who were hit on the road to the side so as not to block the ambulance channel.

After waiting for a long time, the ambulance finally arrived, and the injured were rescued and taken away from the scene one by one. Those people breathed a sigh of relief, and some people gathered together in twos and threes, discussing the previous tragic situation in a tone of fear and joy.

On the road, human blood mixed with melted hail water, which made people in peaceful times very uncomfortable.

There always seems to be a fishy smell in the air, probably the smell of blood.

Some people are anxious to turn on the TV to watch the news and want to know the latest situation. There are also people who are accustomed to using the Internet and turn on their computers. In addition to browsing news websites, they also go to large forums.

Soon, someone discovered an anonymous video post on several large forums. No characters or voices appeared in the entire video, and even the few sentences appeared in the form of black words written on white paper.

What was written on the first piece of white paper was: Pay attention to the black eggs and tiny insects in the hail!!!

A semi-melted hailstone resting on a stainless steel plate appeared on the screen. Someone wearing rubber gloves stretched out his hand from the direction of the shooting. Holding a magnifying glass in his left hand, he moved closer to the melted hailstone water, allowing the video to capture the black spots in the water.

and black worms gradually breaking eggs.

When the number of black worms with broken eggs increased to a certain number, the man folded a second piece of white paper on top of the first piece of white paper, which read: Black worms have hemotropism! Do not touch the wound!

After that, the man took out a small glass bottle with his right hand, which contained a slightly thick red liquid. The man poured the liquid on the steel plate, with a distance between it and the insects.

The moment the blood dripped, the insects immediately started moving and headed towards the direction of the blood.

Finally, the man took out the third piece of white paper he had prepared and continued to stack it. It said: Once found, burn it with fire immediately!!!

Then, a flamethrower appeared in the man's right hand - the kind of small flamethrower used by sushi restaurant chefs to make grilled food, with a long metal head.

The man pressed the flamethrower, and the blood was quickly dried and evaporated, and the black insects inside were burned to ashes.

The video ended here. There was no sound, no person appeared, and the person didn't even show his fingers.

But this video has been stacked up hundreds of times in a short period of time. At first, the bottom was full of people shouting disgusting, and then slowly began to have different comments.

——Holy shit! This post is true. I just went outside to pick up a hailstone, and there really were such eggs and worms in it!

——Administrator, please don’t delete the post yet! This seems to be a warning post! Someone is not causing trouble!

——It’s true! I live on the first floor, and the courtyard is made of concrete. Hailstones originally fell all over the floor, but now they are covered with insects. At first glance, I thought they were just a pile of hair residue. I was almost scared to death!

——Are you so scared? It’s just a bug, it’s so small, what can it do to people!

——You are not from the seaside city upstairs, are you? You really can stand and talk without back pain, what can you do? This insect has sensed the blood and is so crazy, what if it burrows into the wound with all its strength?

——I'll go! Upstairs, I almost fainted after imagining your words!

——If you think about it carefully, it’s not impossible! Damn it! I have a flamethrower at home that my mother used for moxibustion. I’m going to exterminate the pests right away!

——Coordinate Liancheng, your coastal cities are so miserable, I will donate money and materials to you immediately, buy two boxes of flamethrowers and send them to you, old man, please bear with me!

——Thank you upstairs! What should I do if I don’t have a flamethrower at home? Can I use insecticide directly?

——I tried it upstairs, and it seemed to work, and the bugs stopped moving!

——It’s useless! I just sprayed insecticide, and then I pricked my finger to try it, but the bug came back to life again!

——Use boiling water to scald!! Ah! Fortunately, I am in Fangcheng. Our place is inland and far away from your place! It’s so scary. I still have my aunt here...

As soon as this sentence was posted, a series of "me too" comments immediately appeared downstairs. Some people said that they should wear ten pairs of underwear, some said that they should use tampons and sanitary napkins together, and some people were more reliable and said that they could buy one.

Wear protective clothing.

After that, the crooked building resumed its path.

——That person upstairs can’t be killed by pesticides, but can he be scalded to death by boiling water? Moreover, these bugs fell together with the hail. Don’t you think something is very wrong?

——You are all stupid! If I step on such tiny insects with my feet, I will crush them to death!

…

As soon as this floor was opened, there was immediately a large area of ​​"..." below.

Yes, everyone was shocked at first when the man used a flamethrower to directly burn the bugs. They thought the bugs were scary, but in the final analysis, as long as people are not afraid of small bugs, they can do anything.

Kill them!

Then a few minutes later, the person who shouted to crush them replied again.

——Ahhh! I miscalculated! This bug is as thin as a human hair, and there is no reaction at all when stepped on! It’s like stepping on hair, but it’s still hair!! Wait a minute, I’ll try it with a knife this time.

try!

At the bottom is another series of "..." replies, some shouting "Niu Wow, I'm waiting for you", and some stubborn people saying that they should try using knives and scissors.

After a while, other people who had done the experiment came to reply.

——That "old man" upstairs, I tried it with a knife and scissors, why can this thing still move even if it is broken? Is this really a bug? Damn earthworms are not that amazing!

——I'm back! What the poster said is right. I ran to the small supermarket downstairs and bought a flamethrower. Now the bugs have been eliminated by me in an instant! Everyone, stop fussing and burn them with fire while the bugs haven't scurry around yet.

clean!

——I have tried using a lighter to ignite white paper or small wooden sticks and then throw them on the insects to burn them, but the speed is not as fast as a flamethrower because the insects will scatter, and they are too small, so it is not easy to scatter them.

It ignites, so using a flamethrower to spray fire directly is the fastest way!

After this floor, there were a lot of consistent replies: Go buy it now!

Even people in other cities that were not ravaged by hail said they wanted to prepare a flamethrower immediately. Maybe they would be needed one day?

Some people said they should call their parents immediately, some wanted to notify their friends, and some people had already saved the video and posted it to other websites and forums as a publicity warning.

Although this is not an era of rapid mobile phone app information flow, due to the hailstorm, many people stayed indoors, and young people were accustomed to passing the time on the computer.

Therefore, it didn’t take long for people in several coastal cities to know the content of this video post. Through the Internet spread, phone calls between relatives and friends, and word of mouth, many people took action to start eradicating the pests.

At the same time, in a high-security building in Hairu City, a tall man in his thirties wearing a combat uniform reported the video and post to a middle-aged man standing behind the desk.

The middle-aged man has a serious expression and a face that is familiar to everyone in Haicheng. This face occasionally appears in the news.

"Did you only mention hemotropism and elimination methods, but not the other part?"

The man who reported this nodded: "No, I have checked all the websites where this video post appeared, and that's it for this part. No matter whether this person knows the other part of the situation, or how much he knows about the whole thing, it seems that the other person just wants to warn

Everyone, try your best to reduce the occurrence of parasitism.

In addition, we have checked the IP address where this post was originally posted. It was in an Internet cafe, but the nearby cameras did not capture any suspicious persons."

In fact, the man had other things to say later.

A few days ago, someone under them was ordered to go to the community to bring back the parties involved in the previous "undersea tunnel incident". That community is diagonally opposite the current Internet cafe.

At that time, what was unexpected was that they actually failed. Although they had met each other face to face, they actually let the other party escape from under their noses without any trace.

So, does the video posting have something to do with that person?

But in the end, the man in combat uniform didn't say it.

After those people were brought back, no one could leave. In the laboratory at the bottom of the basement of their building, the scientific researchers who thought they had discovered a new species were all obsessed with it, and they had already forgotten what was on the operating table.

Treat it as a human being.

Even someone like him who is used to seeing blood can't stand it when he goes down occasionally.

Although the person who made this decision was the middle-aged man in front of him, he also said that if he was held responsible afterwards, he would bear the responsibility. But in the end, all of them were involved in it, and no one's hands were clean.

.

There was no way before, because in order to speed up research, some things cannot be avoided because of weighing the pros and cons.

But now, not only the coastal areas of their country, but also several other countries near the sea have experienced extreme hail weather. This disaster is likely to be global.

And judging from the large and small conflicts and riots currently occurring in other cities, parasitic patients had already spread in cities across the country long before this hailstorm.

They blocked the news and secretly brought people back to study. In the end, it was just a futile effort.

In this case, it no longer matters what the identity of the escaped woman is and whether it is related to this posting.

On the contrary, being able to escape is actually a good thing.

The middle-aged man's voice interrupted his thoughts: "Keep the post, no need to block it. Contact other cities and start sharing information. Notify various hospitals to classify those injured in the hailstorm as high-risk patients.

All of them should be isolated in a unified manner and do not let them leave the hospital for the time being."

"But - many people are only slightly injured, and there are many elderly women and children..."

The middle-aged man frowned and looked at the man in front of him: "In three days, regardless of age, men and women will become potential dangerous elements that may break out at any time. Remember, they have been parasitized, and they must be distinguished from ordinary people.

If even we don’t have this awareness, the entire Hairu City will suffer.”

The man in combat uniform knew that what the other party said was right. It was just a temporary isolation, not all eradication. Perhaps when scientific researchers could make breakthroughs, they could be saved...

"But there are still many people with minor injuries who did not go to the hospital..."

"There is nothing we can do about that part at the moment. Let's deal with it in three days. By then, the family members will be more cooperative."
To be continued...
