Chapter 33: Strange Beasts Infest

On the day of the national holiday, fine snowflakes drifted in the sky.

Thin pieces of snow fell like velvet from the sky to the earth, onto the streets, on the eaves, on the metal facades of the oasis.

As peaceful and peaceful as the old world before the apocalypse.

It's just that this snowflake is black and has a strong corrosive effect, which makes people avoid it.

As a result, there are almost no pedestrians on the streets.

The windows of the houses on both sides of the street let in warm light, and a few girls and Kaito huddled in the small but cozy living room, hot broth, stir-fried vegetables and multigrain cakes on the table, ready for a festive meal.

"Knock knock—"

A short, powerful knock on the door interrupted their dinner.

"I'll do it." Si Moxue jumped out of the chair and said to Kaito, who was about to get up.

Who will come to visit this weather and this time?

With doubts, Si Moxue opened the door.

There is only one small package at the door, which is tightly wrapped in cloth.

Si Moxue held the doorknob and hesitated for a moment, then bent down to pick up the package.

A note was attached to the package, and the note was written in a strong note: "Miss Si Moxue receives." ”

The moment she saw the note, a chill spread from the tail of Si Moxue's spine to her whole body like an electric current, and the conjecture she had come up with for so many days based on clues really came true-

There have always been people silently "watching" her in the corner where Simxue can't see.

Moreover, the "surveillance" person didn't care if Si Moxue had found out that she was being watched, and even took the initiative to send a package and tell Si Moxue about his existence.

It's just that whether the person who comes is good or evil, Si Moxue doesn't dare to make a conclusion for the time being.

"Mo Xue, what's wrong?" Seeing that Si Moxue was standing still, Tao Er asked.

Si Moxue leaned over, revealing the package in her arms: "I received a package...... I don't know who sent it. ”

"Then bring it in first, it's cold at the door." Kaito spoke - Si Moxue can hold the package for so long without an accident, it shouldn't be a bomb or something.

Si Moxue hesitated for a moment, she was a little suspicious, she really didn't dare to take the package into the room rashly when she wasn't sure about the contents of the package.

"Take it in, people are going to freeze to death." Mia, who was seated near the door, rubbed her exposed neck and said coquettishly.

Si Moxue tried to pinch the package, and the contents of the package were very scattered, as if it contained several different items.

After much hesitation, she finally took the package into the room, closed the door, and kept the cold air out.

Si Moxue put the package on the ground, and Dore and Mia had already come up to see what was in the package.

As she opened the outer packaging of the package layer by layer, the contents of the package were gradually exposed to everyone's eyes......

It was actually rice, flour, cakes and fresh fruits that Sim Moxue had never dared to think of before, and even a handful of sweets with exquisite packaging. These delicacies, which are rarely seen in the outer city, seem to be less conspicuous than the large bag of Gray coins underneath.

The eyes of the people were straight, and their hands were ready to move.

Si Moxue stretched out her hand to stop the others: "Don't eat yet, maybe ......"

Mia "poofed", stretched out a hand from the side, took a piece of candy and stuffed it into her mouth at the speed of light: "Hmm, it's so sweet." ”

"Spit it out, it could be poisonous!" Si Moxue grabbed Mia's cheeks and reached out to dig into her mouth.

"Don't, don't, don't~" Mia's face was pinched into a hamster shape by Si Moxue, but she still chewed the sugar and swallowed it strongly.

Smoxue & Doll Keto: "......"

"It's so sweet, I haven't eaten sugar meow in a long time." Mia sighed as she reminisced, "It's still an orange-flavored meow." ”

Si Moxue was stumped in her heart by Mia's wave of operation show, and it took a long time to hold back her words: "It may be a poisonous ......"

"I know, sugar dies in the mouth, ghosts are also romantic, life is short, and I have fun in time." Mia said nonchalantly.

Si Moxue was really choked up and speechless this time.

A few people waited for a while, but Mia still looked nonchalant and didn't seem to have the slightest problem.

"Why don't you ......," Dore said tentatively, wanting Mia to try another wave of poison, "you eat an apple." ”

Kaito was surprised to look sideways, this girl who looked well-behaved and clever was so black-bellied!

Mia was not polite, picked up an apple and wiped it on her body, and nibbled on it.

"Click, click, click—"

The room was filled with the sound of Mia nibbling on apples for a while, and the rest of the room was filled with frenzied saliva secretions.

This apple must be delicious......

Dore swallowed hard and asked, "How is it, it's not a problem, is it?" ”

"No problem, it's sweet." Mia swallowed the apple in her mouth and took the time to reply.

Then it looks like the food in the package is fine.

Coming to this conclusion, the remaining few people almost rushed up.

Mia nibbles the rest of the apple in a few bites and joins the rush to eat.

Originally, Kaito was embarrassed to grab food with the girls because of his status as an elder, but he couldn't bear to stuff things into his arms with Si Moxue and Taoer, and couldn't help but feast on it.

With this unplanned holiday package, Kaito and Sim Xue enjoyed an extra sumptuous holiday feast.

The next day, the snow stopped, and people took to the streets again in the afterglow of the festival.

However, before people had time to reminisce about the rest of yesterday's pleasures, an explosive piece of bad news spread through the crowd -

It is rumored that a strange beast has appeared in the human agglomeration, and this strange beast is bloodthirsty and abnormal, and its movements come and go without a trace. Some claim to have seen it try to climb over the façade of the oasis.

For a time, both inside and outside the oasis, people were panicked.
