The zombies with straight pupils had already smelled the scent of humans and ran out first.
Su Yu stood up and wanted to stop him, but saw that the person who came had already taken out a tranquilizer gun and aimed it at the zombies running towards him.
Before the zombie could reach him, he was shot between the eyebrows and collapsed to the ground.
Su Yu saw that this man had come prepared and must have some unusual secret, so she quietly retreated into the corner.
The visitor turned the screen of his hand into flashlight mode and shined it around a few times. When the beam of light swept over, it hit Chou Chou's face.
Chou Chou paused while swallowing, and the beam of light turned elsewhere without stopping.
After checking the fourth factory area, the man dragged one of the feet of the zombie with straight pupils and threw it directly into the glass room.
After finishing all this, the man stood in front of the door of the monitoring room opposite and dialed the phone.
Su Yu happened to be able to faintly hear his voice in the corner where he was shrinking:
"The team leader... um... ran out again... open the door yourself, okay, okay."
The phone call was concise and clear, and Su Yu only heard a few key words.
The man hung up the phone, checked the door lock again, and confirmed that the glass door was really closed before leaving.
Su Yu watched Chou Chou finish the meat, and then turned on the small light after making sure that the man was gone.
She felt that everything was unusual, and she didn't know what was wrong that she couldn't explain, so she decided not to show up when the man came just now.
Su Yu took care of everything about Chou Chou. Before leaving, I couldn't help but take a look at the glass room opposite.
It must be that the anesthetic is still taking effect, as the zombie inside is still lying on the ground, motionless.
Su Yu used his screen to illuminate the nameplate on the glass room and found that it clearly read:
The person in charge of the anatomy team: Mao Yun
Teacher Mao from Zombie Biology?
The face of the middle-aged female teacher with a flamboyant personality appeared in Su Yu's mind.
So what kind of research is her research team doing? Zombies can actually escape on their own?

Starting from the second day after successful registration, preparations for the Demon Hunting Competition were put on the agenda.
Su Yu was not present at last night's dinner party because he went to the zombie training base to feed Chou Chou. The other four people just had a simple meal.
In fact, there is no cooperative training that requires all five people to be present. The most important thing for a new team like them to get together is to improve their marksmanship and accuracy. Therefore, everyone unanimously decided to go to the training ground to practice marksmanship in their spare time. When the competition is approaching, they will go together to familiarize themselves with the actual battlefield and formulate tactical plans.
Chen Yiqian seemed to have some problems with his recent research project. He said that he was going to go outside the central city recently, but did not elaborate on the details. From what Hao Tian said, Chen Yiqian seemed much more serious than usual when talking about this topic.
This class was about the boring history of zombies. Neither Su Yu nor Hao Tian was interested. They chatted for a long time.
When it came to Chen Yiqian not being able to participate in training together, Hao Tian still felt a little regretful: "Anyway, he is a sharpshooter. It doesn't matter if he doesn't practice. I just won't see him for a while."
Su Yu kept thinking about what happened at the training base last night, and was a little distracted when chatting with Hao Tian. When he heard what she said, he turned to ask her: "How is the progress?"
"What's the progress?" Hao Tian frowned.
"Of course it's your progress in chasing the male idol." Su Yu joked with a smile.
Hao Tian sighed, surprisingly not so confident, and flattened her mouth at Su Yu: "I don't think I like him that much, especially after we have more contact with him."
"I know, I know," Su Yu held his chin: "He has too much aura, but as soon as he comes into contact, there will be a gap."
After finishing speaking, he felt that he still had to keep some moral integrity towards his God of Wealth, so he added: "But he is still a nice person."
Before Hao Tian answered, Yu Xuexuan on the podium called their names.
"Tell me, what am I going to talk about in this class?!"
The bald old man blew his beard and stared in anger.
Su Yu had been a little disturbed by what happened last night all day long. Even talking to Hao Tian had to force himself up, let alone listening to the history of zombies that made him sleepy as soon as he learned it. So she had no idea what Yu Xuejun was talking about, and even the book on the display board didn't have the exact number of pages.
Hao Tian also didn't know what to ask.
"You two, copy the chapter on St. Anthony's Fire three times for me! Copy it on paper!" Yu Xuejun angrily drove the two of them to stand outside the door, and also issued such a heavy punishment.
Hao Tian and Su Yu stood outside the door speechlessly. The classmates and teachers coming and going looked at the two of them, and they knew that they had made a mistake without asking.
"Hey, I thought university teachers wouldn't use such old punishment methods." Hao Tian complained.
"There is no way, Yu Xuetu is relatively old." Su Yu also sighed.
Hao Tian leaned against the wall with her hands behind her back, and suddenly asked: "Why did you come back so late last night? You must be very scared to be alone in the training base."
Su Yu paused for a moment and then said vaguely:
"Fortunately, I helped Xu Tutu write the monitoring log, which wasted some time."
Hao Tiantian nodded: "It's dark everywhere at night. I'll go with you next time."
Su Yu said softly "Hmm".
She had been hesitating whether to tell Hao Tian and the others what happened yesterday, but every time she thought of Song Zaihu's instructions, she felt that the rest of them should not be involved in such a dangerous matter. After all, the whole incident was a bit confusing, and even Teacher Song’s reaction was a bit strange. So she wanted to talk to Hao Tian several times today, but held back at the last moment.
After class, the two had to complete the punishment homework assigned by the academic in the classroom before going to the training ground to train.
Fortunately, the chapter "Saint Anthony's Fire" does not have many words, so it was not difficult for Su Yu and Hao Tian to copy it.
Su Yu looked at the history described in the textbook and was surprised that this actually happened in the European Middle Ages. The entire onset process of "Saint Anthony's Fire Disease" was more terrifying than the Black Death that ravaged Europe at that time. At that time, people who were sick had limbs falling off and becoming necrotic, their bodies were stiff, and they even had hallucinations and even attacks on other people.
The culprit of all this is ergot.
People at that time had no choice but to watch the patient's limbs become mutilated and insane.
However, this "fire disease" is not spread through blood, and is more likely to cause neurological disorders in people.
This period of history is summarized by the origins of zombie history as the time when zombies first appeared. Su Yu has never been interested in this course because she feels that history like this can never explain the current mutated ergot bacteria.
Ergot mutans does not produce ergot alkaloids to attack human nerves like the ergot bacteria in the Middle Ages. Instead, it directly controls the entire human race and then exists as a parasite.
Su Yu thought of the parasitic brain in the herbarium, and then suddenly thought of Teacher Mao Yun.
What happened last night came to her mind again. Su Yu thought for a while, put down the pen in his hand and dialed Song Zaihu's phone number.
