Chapter 364 Death from Infection

In about an hour, Gao Yi arrived at the port of return.

After last night's joy, there is only an emptiness left today.

Beside the sparsely populated market, there were countless pieces of waste paper and deformed cans everywhere on the ground. Sanitation workers used large dustpans to sweep them together, repeating the same process back and forth.

Gao Yi spotted a fish market that had just opened, and was about to go up to inquire about the dead fish, but he didn't expect a sudden sound of gongs in the alley behind, followed by the sound of wooden fish drums, like a scene.

It’s as lively as water and land.

"...all are merciful, not limited to ordinary saints. The sins in the underworld are numerous, and it is difficult to be reborn, so I know this sutra. Practitioners should make it full of merits and virtues in seven or thirty-five days, and there will be ghosts and gods appearing in the distance.

bow……"

"What's going on?"

Gao Yi looked over: "Someone is doing something?"

Ah Shen, who had been staying in the city before, had never seen such a battle before, so he couldn't help but cast his eyes curiously. After many inquiries from Gao Yi, he finally learned the general outline of the incident from a local who was willing to talk.

"That family is miserable."

The man had a complex look on his face: "There is only one child in the family, and he has worked so hard to take the exams and get a job from the government. Who would have thought that it would only be so long ago that he would be taken away so unexpectedly..."

"A young man?"

"Yes, you should know each other too."

The man pointed to the east: "That young man used to work as a lifeguard on that beach. Yesterday, a big ray washed up on the shore. I don't know if he was stung by a poisonous stinger or something. He left yesterday evening..."

Gao Yi didn't listen at all to the other party's subsequent sad words.

At this time, there were only two words in his mind.

——"Big Ray"!

According to the previous inference, this big ray must also be one of the problematic creatures.

But it is so different. Its life form is far superior to crabs, but it still cannot get rid of the anomalies passed down by the food chain...

"He ate that big ray?"

Gao Yi's sudden voice awakened the man from his own world.

Then he shook his head as if he heard some big joke: "Of course it's impossible! Who would eat marine life of unknown origin? That thing has been disposed of by the relevant departments."

"This is strange."

Gao Yi murmured to himself: "Since you didn't eat these problematic marine creatures, why did you die suddenly? Unless..."

A terrifying possibility suddenly occurred to him.

"Unless it spreads... there is no need for both parties to form an ecological relationship of prey and prey. As long as physical contact is completed, any creature that has come into contact with the host can be killed..."

"So-"

Gao Yi suddenly thought of something and looked behind him: "Ah Shen!"

This guy had frequent contact with crabs in order to save people last night. Could it be that he has become a carrier of that unknown disease?!

Behind him, Ah Shen, who had not been very active since arriving at the port of return, looked exhausted.

Previously, it thought that the physical discomfort was just due to acclimatization, but as time passed, inexplicable fatigue gradually spread throughout the body and mind, causing it to lose the strength to even speak.

At this moment, it finally realized the problem.



Bang!

In the hotel room, large beads of sweat appeared on the man's forehead. He struggled to maneuver his body to reach the landline phone, but because he lost the support of the wardrobe, he fell to the ground with the phone in hand.

On the ground in front of you is a pair of water shoes with sand and gravel.

The man clutched the lapel of his chest and tried his best to ask for help through the microphone: "Quickly... call an ambulance... I... feel so uncomfortable... so uncomfortable... sizzling..."

"Hello?! Sir? Sir!"

The hotel receptionist put down the microphone and looked at his colleagues: "The guest in room 5236 is dead! Call an ambulance!"

Ping-pang-pang-rang!

"Xiaoyue, what's wrong with you?"

In the lounge, a group of colleagues looked at the nurse who suddenly sat on the ground and comforted him: "Don't worry, the cause of their death has yet to be traced, and they won't be implicated casually, so don't worry..."

"No...no, Sister Qin..."

Nurse Xiaoyue was leaning against the closet, her whole face without any color.

Her lips trembled, as if she had been fished out of the river in the cold winter, and her breath was weak: "I feel so tired... my whole body has no strength at all..."

"Hey, Xiaoyue, what's wrong with you? Don't scare us!"

Other nurses came forward to help her stand up, but the latter slowly closed her eyes and murmured vaguely: "I'm so tired... I want to sleep... just for a while... just for a while..."

"Xiaoyue!"

There was also noise outside at the same time.

"Nurse, someone here has fainted!"

"Xiao Wang? Xiao Wang?! Are you okay?"

Different place, almost the same time.

The nurses who had examined the deceased together with Xiaoyue all fell into coma uncontrollably.

The blood on their cheeks seemed to be their life, and it was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by lifeless white.

"There is news from the East Coast Disaster Prevention Office."

Donghai Building, inside the director's office.

Director Wang looked at an urgent document and frowned: "Last night, an abnormal swarm of crabs landed on the white beach. A total of seven people were injured. They lost their vital signs around three o'clock in the morning. The cause of death is currently unknown."

"Everyone, what do you think?"

On the sofa opposite, Ville and several directors thought for a moment and all conveyed the same point of view.

"In extraordinary times, any abnormal things may be related to the thing we are looking for."

"I think it is necessary to take over Dongbin Bay and report this information to the General Administration at the same time. The Sky Eye should have departed from the nearby port by this time. As long as we work together, we can save a lot of research time."

"Um."

Director Wang nodded: "In less than a few minutes, seven people died without exception. We all need to find out whether it was an unknown virus or some kind of supernatural force.

"

"Local scientific research institutions have collected samples of those sea crabs, and we should be able to get specific results soon."

Jingle bell bell!

The landline phone on the right rang at this moment, and Director Wang picked it up in a hurry: "Hello? It's me, please speak."

"Are those sea crabs okay?"

Everyone couldn't help but frown, and Director Wang repeated it again as if confirming: "Are you sure?"

"Hmm, hmm? What?"

"Okay, I understand, thank you for your help."

Ended the call.

Director Wang tapped the table lightly with a thoughtful look on his face: "Those things that cause death are neither viruses nor bacteria."

"What is that?"

The rest of the people couldn't help but look at each other.

"He said... it was 'death'."
