In the small refrigerator in the corner, Xu Tutu had already put the meat he had received in the morning. He only needed to thaw it with water before feeding it to Chou Chou.
Su Yu put on gloves and put the meat into the iron bucket.
The Chou Chou in the glass room was just like Su Yu saw it for the first time, with his back to the monitoring room here and his head facing the wall, as if he was asleep.
Su Yu has always been curious. According to normal knowledge, zombies do not need to sleep. Most of the time when they don't need to hunt, they will just stand there as if they are down.
After thinking about it, she opened the door quietly and walked out. The glass room was transparent on all sides. She wanted to go around to the front of Chou Chou to see if it was really sleeping with its eyes closed.
Although, theoretically speaking, sound would not cause zombies to have a strong predatory reaction, but in such a quiet environment, Su Yu still tried to walk as lightly as possible. Like a sleeping child, gently approach the glass wall that you can see clearly on that side.
Slowly walking around to Chou Chou, Su Yu could clearly see through the glass that Chou Chou was lying on the bed on his side with one hand under his head and his legs slightly bent. It really looked like that.
But when Su Yu squatted down to be level with Chou Chou's face, he instantly met a pair of big eyes.
Chou Chou didn't react at all. Although his eyes were staring, they were dull, just like when he was awake.
This made Su Yu relieved. She planned to write this matter in today's observation diary and then take the time to discuss it with Xu Tutu.
At this moment, Su Yu's screen suddenly lit up. She looked down and saw that it was Hao Tian who sent a message asking her when it would be over.
After replying the message, Su Yu stood up and prepared to go back to the monitoring room, but suddenly saw Chou Chou, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, stood up.
Its eyes were still empty, but they were staring straight at Su Yu.
Su Yu looked at Chou Chou thoughtfully.
She squinted her eyes, turned on the screen on her phone, and let the bright light shine on her face.
Su Yu looked at Chou Chou again and found that it was still facing him, with a pair of eyes staring at his face. From its motionless pupils, you can see your own face illuminated by the light.
Su Yu moved two steps to the right slightly, and Chou Chou in the glass room suddenly made a new move. It mechanically turned its stiff neck and swung its head towards Su Yu.
When Su Yu moved to the left again, Chou Chou's head also moved to this side.
Su Yu turned off the screen in his hand and was already very sure. Just like what Teacher Song Zaihu said, they had reason to suspect that the zombies had undergone unknown changes.
Perhaps there are high-level personnel or research groups who are aware of this change, but in terms of public awareness and authoritative identification in textbooks, people's understanding of zombies has lagged behind.
Su Yu turned on the always-on mode of his hand screen, raised it in front of his face, and slowly walked from Chou Chou's glass room to the zombie's glass wall next to it.
Under the dim light, there was a zombie with intact eyes standing quietly inside.
Su Yu shook the screen vigorously a few times, and the light of varying brightness illuminated her serious face.
She leaned closer to the glass wall to take a look, but the zombies inside didn't move at all.
Su Yu moved to the next glass room.
In the dark factory area, Su Yu was like a watchman holding a lamp. Using this method to wake up a sluggish zombie also proved her determination.
She walked all the way down and put all the zombies in the fourth factory to such a test.
Among the one hundred and fifty zombies, except for the fifty-three zombies whose eyeballs fell off or were completely necrotic, the remaining twenty-five zombies reacted to Su Yu's face illuminated by the dim light.
Most of them will shift their gaze with weak light, but when it changes to strong light, they will turn their heads to avoid the light, just like paramecia seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
Su Yu didn't know what sensational effect it would have if she wrote this discovery into a paper or submitted a report, but she gave up the idea after thinking about it.
Su Yu still clearly remembered what Teacher Song Zaihu said. Hu Yue's accident had never been investigated clearly. There were still many secrets in the entire domestication base.
She quickly returned to Chou Chou's monitoring room and wrote down all the findings tonight in Chou Chou's monitoring diary. Xu Tutu encrypted these records so that only he and Su Yu could view them, so they could safely write them down.
Su Yu's brain was running rapidly. If it was proved that the zombies had vision problems, then the hatred of the red-eyed zombies she saw should also be real.
And if zombies have feelings, everything will change qualitatively——
They are no longer the walking dead that people call them.
When Su Yu was halfway through recording, she heard a slight tapping sound in the glass room, and she felt a thrill all over.
He turned to look at the glass room, only to find that Chou Chou was facing the glass in the monitoring room. He extended an index finger and tapped it lightly with his long nails:
Boom, once.
Boom, twice.
Su Yu stood up and looked at it, and found that it still had empty eyes and an ignorant look on its face.
This glass is single-sided. Even if it has been confirmed that Chou Chou has partial vision, it is still impossible to see Su Yu from it.
Su Yu felt that Chou Chou's behavior was not unconscious. It might be to attract the attention of people in the monitoring room.
Su Yu then remembered that she had walked around the fourth factory area and had not yet fed Chou Chou the meat in the tin bucket. It might be very hungry, so he was reminding her.
Under Xu Tutu's careful raising, Chou Chou seems to have changed more advanced than other zombies.
But even so, when Su Yu lifted the tin bucket in, Chou Chou still reacted violently. The smell of humans made it lose its dull look just now, and began to bare its fangs at Su Yu and keep spitting.
Su Yu pushed the fresh meat in front of Chou Chou, and it pounced on it crazily, biting and eating it into its mouth.
Suddenly, it twisted its neck and glanced outside the glass room. Su Yu followed it suspiciously.
The door of the glass room opposite suddenly opened silently, and a zombie staggered out. It pressed its withered face against the ugly glass wall, and seemed to be looking at Su Yu seriously.
Through the dim light in Chou Chou's room, Su Yu saw that this zombie's eyes were different from other zombies. Its pupils were a horizontal straight line, like the eyes of an old goat.
How did the glass door open this time? Why isn't there even an alarm sound?
Su Yu realized that things were not simple, and hurriedly turned off the lights in Chou Chou's room and retreated to a corner.
The zombie with straight pupils lost its direction in an instant. It sniffed with its nose that only had two holes left, and stayed in front of the door of Su Yu's monitoring room for a long time before wandering away.
Su Yu just watched it pass by the glass doors one after another, its stiff legs swaying in the entire passage.
At this time, there was a burst of footsteps at the door of the fourth factory area.
Someone came in from the factory gate.
