In the darkness.
Lu Li looked around and suggested, "Let's go to the bathroom first?"
In fact, the second floor was not completely silent. He could hear the sound of dripping water coming from inside.
Although the old man felt that Lu Li's origin was mysterious, he had never seen him take action, so he couldn't help but warn him again: "Let's go, if you encounter a resurrected corpse, you first use a nail gun to weaken it and create a fatal blow for me." Chance."
"Know."
After saying this, Lu Li walked forward.
If the noise caused by the use of the pistol was not too great, which could easily reveal his whereabouts, he would have even hoped to perform a headshot scene for the old man to give himself extra points.
However, be careful when sailing.
Abraham once said that these returned corpses are crawling with bloodthirsty nematodes, and as long as one burrows into the body, it will be transformed.
Therefore, Lu Li, who didn't know much about the resurrected corpses, was both confident and cautious.
When he entered the bathroom, he held the nail gun with one hand and pressed the switch with the other hand.
light is on.
The light shines through the curtains, and you can vaguely see what's going on inside.
Seeing that there was no shadow inside, Abraham breathed a sigh of relief and stood up on guard.
However, Lu Li still did not dare to take it lightly and walked slowly towards the bathing pool surrounded by a curtain.
He had met Emma, not only that, he had even dealt with her——
When he was exploring the cabin, in order to find out the cause of death of the passenger, he specially found a little girl in red to conduct on-site inspection, and she was Emma.
He is very small, less than one meter tall.
"Officer, what are you doing?"
After saying this, Abraham once again pulled out the Sword of Sadhu from his crutch and stared at the bath.
"If you guessed it correctly, there are two resurrected corpses hiding in this apartment, one big and one small."
As Lu Li explained, he approached the target from the side and whispered: "The younger one is much shorter than others of the same age, less than one meter. He is probably hiding in the bathtub."
After saying that, he opened the curtain, put his finger on the trigger, and raised the gun to shoot.
Unfortunately, it was empty inside.
I saw a little yellow duck floating in the bathtub, the water was dyed light red with blood, and a fishy smell wafted out of it.
At the same time, footsteps and calls came from downstairs: "Mr. Arnott, this is Dr. Iver from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."
Why is he here?
Lu Li was confused. He had abandoned the official organization and worked alone. How could he still meet this guy?
In a flash of thought, Dr. Ivor had arrived on the second floor and happened to see the old man and Lu Li standing in the bathroom.
"What are you doing here?"
He asked subconsciously.
Unfortunately, Lu Li didn't buy it and said succinctly: "Investigating the case."
"Are you kidding? The airport police have the power to search the victim's home?"
"Doctor, if I remember correctly, the CDC has already been out."
However, neither of the two people caught in the argument saw a breathless, pale-faced little girl wearing pink pajamas, secretly looking at them through the crack in the door.
The old man also didn't notice anything strange.
However, he didn't want to waste his limited energy on this kind of thing, so he said to Lu Li: "Disputes and suspicions are exactly what the Blood Ancestor wants to see."
Hearing this, Lu Li stopped talking to Dr. Iver and continued to focus on the bathtub while raising his hand to turn the faucet.
After a while, the trickling sound of water disappeared.
On the side, Dr. Iver, who was interested in inquiring about the news, stared at the old man and asked: "What is Blood Ancestor? Is it a proper noun?"
"In medical terms that you can understand, it's Patient Zero, an ancient creature that feeds on blood."
At this moment, Dr. Iver, who had received higher education, did not refute and listened silently.
After all, nothing in the world is more convincing than seeing it with his own eyes, and just before leaving the hospital, he personally dissected Captain Redfern who had turned into a monster.
Bloodthirsty, irrational, and able to spray snake-like organs to attack others.
And the disease goes far beyond that.
There were wrinkles on the captain's neck, which were caused by the body's rapid heating and inability to dissipate heat.
The reason for this is because of the strange spiky tongue-shaped organ.
It is thick and powerful and can easily penetrate thick wooden boards. However, this thing that goes against normal cognition consumes energy in the host's body every moment and releases a large amount of heat.
In addition, the captain also lost his baby brother, heart, lungs, and other organs.
all in all.
This is a parasitic mechanism that humans have never seen before. It rewrites the operating mechanism of normal organisms and does not hesitate to drain the host, just for the purpose of that prickly tongue-like organ.
"Doctor, now is not the time for small talk, let alone a good time to be in a daze and think about something."
As he spoke, Lu Li, who was standing in front of the two of them, took out a key from his pocket and stirred it in the blood. Soon, some long hair that had sunk under the water surfaced.
Apparently, the little girl Emma completely turned into a resurrected corpse while taking a bath.
For some reason, perhaps because his long call went unanswered, Mr. Arnott became anxious and had to come in and have a look.
Immediately afterwards, tragedy happened. When he inquired closely, a thorny tongue came out of his daughter's mouth, in the middle of the artery. Most of the blood was sucked by little Emma, and a small part dyed the water in the bathtub red.
What Dr. Ivor said next also confirmed the conjecture of the great detective Lu Li.
He came over, fished out a Mickey Mouse hairpin from the blood, and said, "I've seen this thing on the list of victims' belongings."
"In addition, last night, Mr. Arnott called specifically to thank me for sending his daughter home, and I was at St. Sebastian's Hospital at the time."
At this point, there is no more suspense.
The doctor, whose worldview was impacted, decided to join in and shoot some videos to alert senior people.
Although Lu Li felt that the so-called high-level officials were completely unreliable, he still threw out a silver dagger and told Iver: "Returning corpses are afraid of silver and sunlight, and the sun is gone now. You can use this to defend yourself." .”
Frankly speaking, both Doctors Ivor and Nora have their own shortcomings, but it is undeniable that they are both good people.
Just like myself.
Lu Li thought as he walked out of the bathroom with the nail gun and walked towards the nearest bedroom.
There was faint music coming from inside.
It's light, childlike, and reminiscent of Christmas.
Soon, the three of them walked to the door, and the old man whispered to Lu Li who was standing in front: "Be careful."
Lu Li nodded and gently pushed open the unlocked door. At the same time, he raised the nail gun and put his hand on the trigger.
The stench and smell of blood assaulted my nostrils.
Dr. Iver, who was the timidest, shrank his pupils and took two steps back.
The cool moonlight fell down, preventing the room from being completely dark.
A small music box was playing music and Santa Claus was riding an elk, spinning back and forth.
Beside it, a small, almost bald girl with sparse hair slowly turned around.
His eyes were empty, as if he were dead.
No, she was originally a soul-returning corpse!
If the scene were different, Dr. Ivor would have thought this was a little girl stealing candy.
However, the corners of her mouth were not covered with syrup, but blood, the blood of her loved ones.
"This posture is quite bluffing."
Lu Li frowned and strode towards Emma, wanting to see what the returning corpse was capable of.
Then, he saw it.
A prickly tongue covered with mucus and crawling with nematodes came out of Emma's mouth.
Because its body was too small and could not provide much energy to the monster living inside it, the forked, spiked tongue only pierced outward for three feet, about one meter, before it was pulled down.
"That's it?"
Seeing this, Lu Li didn't even bother to take a step back, he turned his body slightly and dodged easily.
Emma, who smelled the smell of flesh and blood and turned into a beast, stepped forward and spit out her thorny tongue again. Perhaps she was too impatient and staggered, almost falling to the ground.
"Sir, don't waste your time."
The corners of Abraham's eyes kept twitching. He had never seen someone so unafraid of death, teasing the resurrected corpse like a dog.
However, even the newly transformed soul-returning corpse can complete a hunt within two seconds. Why can Lu Li do it so easily?
The next moment, the old man didn't have time to think too much. He pulled out the sword of Sadhu and rushed forward, chanting: "My sword blade shines with silver light!"
White blood splatters.
A head rolled to the ground.
Dr. Iver, who was recording the video, could clearly see that there was a silver nail inserted between Emma's eyebrows, deep into her brain.
In just a few breaths, a perfect cooperation came to an end.
Even Abraham, who was responsible for the finishing touch, felt unbelievable.
In fact, he couldn't even count as a last-ditch attack, because the silver nail had already nailed the resurrected corpse to death.
