Chapter 158: Strange Taste!
Chapter 158: Strange Taste!
The car left the Biology Institute, and Ellie stayed by Lake's side, looking at Lake with self-reproach. Wei Dong was lying next to Lake, and Venter had been watching over him.
Ellie risked her life and brought out the jar from the institute and placed it next to her calf. It was a silvery-white, cylindrical tin can.
Ellie doesn't understand, what is it for? I don't understand why I did everything possible to find this thing, and I even poisoned Lake and them.
Nothing was written on the jar, not a single useful clue. In terms of appearance, it looks like a thermos flask that I have seen on weekdays, nothing special, very ordinary.
Ellie also thought at one point, did she be deceived? Get a worthless thing.
The car drove back to Zud's residence, and he sent his men to pick up Lake and Wei Dong and take them to their infirmary, where the doctor could examine their bodies.
After a preliminary diagnosis, they were hit by a chemical poison gas. The toxins cause damage to the lung tissues, causing coma, difficulty breathing, and wheezing.
To prevent them from breathing being interrupted, doctors put on respirators and sent people to monitor them.
Fortunately, they escaped in time, and if it had been in the evening, it would have caused suffocation! Generally, it takes about 7 to 14 days to recover from the damage caused by this gas.
The duration of coma also varies from person to person, and those with good physique will wake up faster. If the physical fitness is poor, it will be relatively late, and there is no danger to life.
In the evening, Ellie falls asleep next to Lake, who wakes up from his hospital bed and opens his eyes to see Ellie, the respirator full of fog.
Ellie held one of his hands, felt the other's hand move, and glanced up at him. Finding that Lake was awake, he smiled at him excitedly.
Taking the respirator off, Lake gasped for breath and struggled to breathe on his own, no longer relying on the respirator. He suddenly thought of Wei Dong, who had saved him, and hurriedly asked about the other party's situation.
Ellie said that Wei Dong was fine, and he had just woken up, and Wente had been by his side all the time, so he didn't have to worry. And he handed him the medicine and the cup of water that had been prepared on the table.
Lake put the medicine in his mouth, tilted his head and took it with water. Feeling very thirsty, she drank all the glasses of water, and Ellie asked him not to move and pour him water herself.
Lying weakly, Lake seemed to have lost half his life. In the past, he would not care about the life and death of others, let alone be stupid enough to put himself in danger in order to save others.
He was with Ellie, and his whole person changed. From the time he met Ellie, he may have changed and gradually become a good person.
In the past, he was only one of Karn's orders, just one of his killing tools, cold-blooded and ruthless. There's only one task in mind, and that's to find Ellie!
He can do whatever it takes, and even suffered several injuries in order to take Ellie back, and he did not hesitate to disguise himself as a vaccine injector and swallow his brain.
In order to achieve a real effect, he is also hard enough. But in the end, my efforts were in vain. The safe Van Ersai is still occupied by mutants.
Ellie told him to rest so that she would not bother him, and besides, the doctor had told him that the patient needed to rest. She walked out of the infirmary and sat down in a chair in the hallway.
Zude's shelter is a hospital in the city of Toron. This place is much bigger than the exhibition building they used to have, and the people here are very well-behaved.
If you want to stay here, you have to do something for this place, you can go out and look for supplies, or you can stay and work and wash the clothes here.
There are currently five part-time workers in the washing room, and the clothes sent here are washed, dried, and then ironed by people.
The clothes they wear are also disinfected to reduce the chance of getting sick. Each piece of sterilized clothing will be affixed with a smiley face logo on the chest.
When going out to find supplies, it is all approved by Zude, and several people travel in a team, and it is forbidden to travel alone! It hasn't been a long time since anything went wrong.
Zude manages this place very well, Ellie is not wrong, he is indeed a good leader. Thanks to the order he had established, the place had been running in an orderly manner.
Sitting on a chair in the hallway, Ellie didn't feel sleepy, looking around boredly. At the end of the long hallway, a little girl walked by.
The girl, who looked like she was five or six years old, looked very cute, she was wearing a clean dress with a smiley face logo on her chest.
In the girl's hand, an uncle in the washing room, stuffed in her pocket, gave her lollipops, and this happened more than once.
The uncle liked her very much, and would always stuff a lollipop in the girl's pocket every time he ironed the clothes, and no one else had this privilege.
For some reason, when the girl approached Ellie, Ellie suddenly felt a spirit, as if there was something in her that could stimulate her instantly.
At first, she thought it was a delusion. Although she has eaten brains, she has not yet reached the point of eating human flesh, so she thinks that this feeling is a liking for girls.
The girl was close to herself and kept eating that lollipop. Ellie gradually discovers that she doesn't seem to be interested in her, but in the lollipop!
The lollipop, like a brain, tempted her vision and made her want to take a bite. She crouched down and smiled at the girl, keeping her eyes on the lollipop.
The girl understood what she meant, and handed the candy to Ellie, motioning for her to take a bite. Ellie glanced around, then approached the lollipop.
She stretched out the tip of her tongue and licked it tentatively, her brain seemed to be electrified, and a comfortable feeling spread throughout her body, she didn't know what was wrong.
This feeling is the same as the special feeling when she eats her brain. She couldn't control herself, snatched the lollipop and put it all in her mouth.
The girl was frightened and cried out. Ellie, intoxicated by her feelings, ignored it and began to bite the sugar in her mouth.
She didn't lick it to eat, it would be too time-consuming, and she just bit it all in her mouth. It's a great feeling, it's as enjoyable as eating a brain!
Chewing and swallowing the candy, Ellie stuffed the deformed plastic stick with a bit of sugar and the front end into the girl's mouth, and the girl immediately stopped crying.
Ellie touched the girl's head and hugged her comfortingly. The girl stopped crying when she had candy to eat, and her face changed to the smile she had before.
Ellie recalled, the taste, and the feeling, that this was no ordinary lollipop! In that lollipop, she actually ate the taste of the brain.
She didn't know that the scene just now was seen by a figure hiding at the corner of the stairs.
Peeking at him was the mysterious uncle in the cleaning room. Seeing Ellie's change, he smiled strangely.
