above the disease

Chapter 174 A new anomaly has appeared ([-])

After speaking, the female epidemic killer glanced at the people around Zhou Zhi and left.

Except for the plague exterminators, residents under the rule of the human kingdom can rarely see the diseased things, objects, or people with their own eyes.

From Zhou Zhi's perspective, the human-shaped objects on the wasteland resembled "scarecrows", but because of the great distance, there was no way to determine what kind of lesions they were.

The roar of the steam train sounded, surging into a crawling beast over the boundless wilderness.

As time passed, the passengers discovered that the monsters seemed unable to keep up with the train.

"Huh, what a scary thing. Are those diseases?"

Shen Wang straightened up, feeling a little frightened: "I just saw their faces a little bit. They were all wrapped in [straw]. It's really scary."

"no."

Zhou Zhi replied: "Theoretically speaking, those are not epidemics, but diseased organisms infected by epidemics. Real epidemics are at least at the [pathogen] level."

Shen Wang seemed to feel relieved after hearing Zhou Zhi's words: "So it's nothing, just look at them directly?"

On one side, a bald man and his wife pricked their ears.

Zhou Zhi shook his head: "It's hard to say, there are many ways to get sick. If the disease spreads with looser conditions, it can indeed be transmitted through visual contact."

Hearing this, Shen Wang and others, who had just felt better, shrank their heads again.

The train is moving.

In the distance, the dusk sky seems to give people a tired feeling.

In his last life, Zhou Zhi didn't have any chance to stop and read a book seriously.

It's quite pleasant now.

"Hello."

"I am back."

As soon as Zhou Zhi picked up the book in his hand, Fang Hui's voice came to his ears.

"The skills of those guys in playing cards are simply stinking. I really couldn't stand it anymore, so I took a parasite and played happily all afternoon."

Fang Hui said proudly.

"and then."

Zhou Zhi straightened up and avoided his seatmate.

"Of course, I won the afternoon."

Fang Hui became even more proud, and his little roundworm body twisted unconsciously: "But the guy I parasitized was thought to be cheating by his poker friends, so he beat him severely. In Car No. 12, The flight attendant is mediating now, so I ran back because I was afraid of being discovered."

Zhou Zhi didn't know what to say for a while.

"Oh, by the way, I am looking around the carriage. There are many interesting things. Some of them may affect our journey. Do you want to listen to them?"

Fang Hui said with a smile.

Zhou Zhi yawned.

"No rejection, just yes!"

Fang Hui said righteously: "Those medical students in the fourth carriage were classmates in ordinary schools and had a very good relationship. Later, they were admitted to different medical schools in Qamdo and they still hung out together. However, as they neared graduation, their relationship seemed to have emerged. These problems... to put it simply, it is a very bloody love story."

Speaking of love stories, Zhou Zhi remembered that he hadn't watched this week's "Ambition to End the Epidemic" yet. The story of "Wan Zhi" and "Splendid" should be more complicated than the relationship between these little guys.

"Then in the seventh carriage, there are several inner city police, that is, members of the arrest center, escorting a prisoner. The prisoner should also be an exterminator. He has been equipped with [shackles] that suppress spiritual power. He was also fed [drugs], so if something happens, it will most likely be this guy.”

Finally becoming interested, Zhou Zhi opened his eyes: "There should be special channels for escorting prisoners. Civilian steam trains are generally not used."

"Who knows, among the people guarding the prisoners, the leader is an official exterminator. The main reason is that I don't want to cause you trouble, otherwise I would have become a parasite."

Fang Hui crossed her arms.

Zhou Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "It's considerate."

Fang Hui's parasitism is likely to be detected by an official-level epidemic exterminator. If the conductor really discovers it, Zhou Zhi can only cut him off with Master Ascaris.

"In the ninth carriage, there is an epidemic exterminator who likes to show off, but it shouldn't be a problem."

Fang Hui continued.

"Uh-huh?"

Zhou Zhi looked at Fang Hui.

Fang Hui whistled twice as if nothing had happened.

"In the tenth carriage, there was an old man who forced the window to be opened for ventilation. After the conductor refused, he started to act violently, and then prepared to smoke in the carriage and the passageway, while admiring the creeping scarecrows in the distance."

Fang Hui showed a sly smile: "The tunnel was originally closed, but he opened it while the flight attendant wasn't paying attention. The wind was howling in the middle. The old man seemed to regard the disease at the far end as some kind of spectacle, and he became more and more fascinated as he watched. ".

"As a result...it seems that he has become ill."

Fang Hui said innocently: "That happened about five minutes ago."

Suddenly, the alarm bell sounded in the communicator.

Especially harsh. "What's wrong!"

Shen Wang grabbed the armrest next to him, his face turned pale.

"Dear passengers, please be patient."

"[Sick incident] occurred in the carriage."

"Passengers please do not move around and stay calm."

"There are dedicated epidemic fighters on the train who will quickly go to eliminate and suppress the epidemic."

Disease incident!

The people in the carriage moved very quickly. The moment they heard the word "disease", they immediately squatted down with their heads in their hands.

At the same time, the flight attendants quickly reassured the passengers.

"It's really an illness incident!"

"how come!"

"Didn't you check before getting in the car?"

The middle-aged bald man's face turned pale.

frame! !
At the end of the carriage, there was a strange knock on the door at the passage, but it didn't seem to be that, but some kind of impact sound.

[Environmental disease index increased slightly].

[Environmental disease index increased slightly].

Messages flow.

There was no abnormality in Zhou Zhi's body, not even any sign of an increase in disease index.

On the other hand, the symptoms of these passengers around me have improved by single digits.

There was a faint scent of fragrance in the air, which must have come from the other side of the door.

"Don't... don't be afraid, the plague exterminator will be here soon..."

The female flight attendant is not an exterminator, but she is quite calm.

Zhou Zhi stood up slowly.

"Passenger, please stay in your seat. The epidemic killer will arrive soon."

The flight attendant was a little anxious.

Zhou Zhi gently opened the black box.

The two heavy plague-killing knives, black and white, exuded a strange sharpness.

"It's ok."

The man stood up and said seriously: "It's almost nightfall, please solve it as soon as possible."

"Everyone, go to bed early."

Click.

The door was pushed open at this time. Rather than being pushed open, it was better to say that it was knocked open by brute force.

In an instant, bursting wind blew into the interior of the car.

The scream sounded instantly.

because.

What was in front of him was a terrifying [Scarecrow] with an aging human face. On top of the organ that could still be called the 'mouth', it held a bulging cigarette covered with rice ears.

The ears of rice spread out from the pores, growing on the eyeballs, in the nostrils, and on the naked skin.

"Ho...ho...ho..."

The old man's ferocious face looked like his nerves had condensed.

"Oh! Yeah! So it's right behind us..."

Fang Hui patted her head and showed a very innocent expression.

[Scarecrow-Smoker].

[Disease index: 70.00% [-]].

[Source of disease: rice blast (ear blast)].

[Disease level: Intermediate disease].

[…].

[Smoking is harmful to health, especially if you open the window on a steam train].
