Chapter 9: The Rat Plague
Liuba Village, No. 96 East Ring Road. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It was a private villa with a small courtyard, and at this time there were many brave local residents watching in fear from afar. On the second floor of the villa, someone was shouting for help through a layer of glass, but the surrounding residents were holding sticks and brooms, but they didn't dare to rush up to save people.
Why?
It turned out that the outside of the villa was surrounded by dense and thousands of rats. There are their figures on the ground, on the roof, and on the railing, and the black pressure is a piece that makes everyone's scalp tingle.
Chirping! Chirping!
The cries of rats were incessant, especially the sound of rats gnawing on the walls, which made everyone feel worried.
No matter how weak a creature is, when it reaches a certain level in number, it becomes a disaster. There were so many rats gathered around this villa all of a sudden, and it naturally became a rat plague.
"Is this He Youliang doing too much for lack of virtue on weekdays, and now retribution has arrived." A young resident said disdainfully to his relatives and friends.
"Don't say that, although He Youliang is not very good, his wife is still quite good. And the child is innocent, we have nothing to say about this retribution to He Youliang, but the retribution is on his wife and daughter, it is really ・・・・・・" An elderly man looked at the mother and daughter who were shouting for help through the glass, and couldn't help but feel unbearable.
"Did you call the police? It's up to the police to deal with this, and it's not enough for those rats to rush in. ”
"Someone went to report, no matter how much he said that the surname He is also the head of our Liuhu District, and there are a lot of people who want to pat that person's ass and run errands for him."
"Be careful, the man surnamed He is hiding there now, and let him hear what you say, but it will be enough for you." A man pointed to the group of people standing on the road not far away, and said with a wink.
"I'll be afraid of him!" A young man pretended not to care, but his deliberately lowered voice could also show that his low breath was insufficient. Although military control is practiced today, it is the officers who are in charge.
But even so, those in power in the government still have a lot of power in their hands, and there are still ways to deal with them and ordinary people.
The rats seemed to be looking for something, and one by one they were scurrying around the villa. The residents of the neighboring villa were so frightened that they left their homes, hiding in the distance and watching the rats scurrying around their homes, and they really wanted to cry without tears.
It's okay that they're just the ones who have been affected, or it's time to escape. And as the main target of those rats, the people inside don't even have a chance to escape. If it weren't for the fact that the house was built very solidly and the doors and windows were of good quality, I am afraid that these rats would have washed into the room long ago.
"Why haven't the police arrived yet, don't you know that this is something that happened to my family? If anything happens to my wife and daughter, I will definitely go to the mayor to react and remove him from his position surnamed Zhao. He Youliang looked at the situation in his home, and shouted loudly with fear and anxiety.
If he, the head of the district, had the same authority as he did before the disaster, I am afraid that he would dare to say that he would even be removed from the post of head of the police station in this district. It is a pity that in today's world, all armed personnel are led by military personnel, and they, the members of the government, cannot command those armed forces at all. If a district chief like him has an opinion about the police, the most he can do is to react to the top.
"District Chief, Xiao Zhu has already gone to call the police, I believe that the people from the police force will arrive soon, and Mrs. He and Miss He will be fine." A person next to him wiped the sweat from his forehead and said carefully. Now their district chief is a ball of gunpowder, which will explode at one point, and this person is also afraid.
"Wait, if we wait, my wife and daughter will feed the rats." He Youliang's eyes were red and he shouted loudly, he didn't go home last night and spent the night at his lover's. Because he had to go to work, he went home in the morning to get his things, but he didn't expect to get this bad news.
Hearing his words, although the people around him made empathetic looks, they thought disdainfully: I care so much about my wife, what did I do that morning, leaving my wife at home, I must have secretly met my mistress!
Da! Da!
The sound of horses' hooves sounded, making the district chief look at the sound in surprise as if he was grasping a life-saving grass.
There is only one police station in this community, and there are only four or five people working in the station, and now this kind of police force is only available in the Liuhu District Bureau. The Liuhu branch is a long way from here, so it will take a lot of time to get here.
Today's society is no better than it was before the disaster, when gasoline was ridiculously expensive due to the disruption of oil transportation lines, and no one could afford to drive those oil-burning machinery. Many people use traditional mobility tools such as horses and bicycles. However, because there are relatively few mounts such as horses, few people can own them, and they basically ride bicycles.
It's a world where bicycles are the main means of transportation!
"Is it District Chief He in front?" The policeman at the head sat on his horse and shouted at He Youliang's group.
"Captain Zhao, I'm He Youliang, I didn't expect you to lead the team personally. My house is full of rats now, please save my wife and daughter, and I will definitely come to the door afterwards to thank you. ”
Although He Youliang was very dissatisfied with the other party's condescending appearance, he was now asking for help, so he couldn't help but keep his voice down.
"District Chief He is too polite, it is our police's responsibility to protect the citizens, please rest assured, I will definitely rescue your family."
There was a black mole next to the nose of Captain Zhao, who led the team, and he touched it with his right hand and said proudly. Seeing that District Chief Zhao, who was arrogant and domineering on weekdays, whispered to him, he couldn't help but be secretly refreshed.
On weekdays, He Youliang relied on himself as the head of Liuhu District, and he held the logistics power of Liuhu District, he had begged the other party a lot before, and he had suffered a lot of anger, so now he wants to get his face back whenever he has the opportunity.
"Yes, there are too few policemen like Captain Zhao who serve the country and the people. Afterwards, I will definitely ask the mayor to give you a certificate of merit. ”
Although He Youliang was very uncomfortable in his heart, he endured it for the sake of his wife and daughter. The two belong to two factions, and there is some friction on weekdays, and he knows all about it in his heart. Now he has a request for the other party, so he has to bow his head, and he is recovering face in the future.
"District Chief He has won the award, I'm just doing my job. Every police officer in the force is responsible for protecting the public, and I am just an ordinary police officer. ”
Hearing the other party mention the mayor, Captain Zhao knew that he couldn't go too far. Although the police station is under the control of the Liuyuan City City Defense Commander, and the mayor can't control them, he really has a good time letting the mayor go to his own commander to say something.
"Brothers, save people. I don't see that human life is at stake! Thinking of this, Captain Zhao raised his head and turned over and dismounted, then pointed to the location of the villa with a whip and shouted to his subordinates.
Today's state is under military control, and the status of military personnel who own guns is higher than that of government officials who are in charge of administration.
After all, power will come out of the barrel of a gun, and this sentence is true at all times.
Therefore, in Liuhu District, Captain Zhao, who is in charge of the Liuhu District Police Bureau, is more confident than District Chief He, who is in charge of the district government.
This time, Captain Zhao brought his two squadrons over. A squadron of twenty people was divided into two ten-man squads.
After listening to the words of their superiors, the two squadron leaders hurriedly dismounted and instructed their subordinates to prepare tools to clean up the rats.
Because they had already been informed of the situation in advance, they had prepared a lot of tools to clean up rats.
And Captain Zhao walked to the side of District Chief He with a horsewhip behind his back, this kind of thing naturally does not need him to command in person, he just came to sit on the scene.
Although I heard that there were many rats, everyone still felt their scalps tingle when they saw the black pressed patch clearly.
Even when the three horses arrived, they were not at peace, and they roared and kicked their hooves restlessly. If it weren't for the police, they would have fled.
"Captain, we're really rushing in!" A policeman looked at the villa and asked his captain with some wistfulness.
"You think we're here for sightseeing! Put on your armor and see if this situation is not good, there are monsters to make trouble. The questioned squad leader glared at it and spoke.
"Captain, don't scare me, even if we are the opponent of the Warcraft, it is not enough to stuff its teeth." When a policeman heard this, he was immediately frightened.
"Look at you, is the gun you have for fire?" The squad leader glanced at him.
"But the object is a demonic beast, our broken gun is okay against ordinary animals, what can it be used against demonic beasts." When the policeman heard his captain say this, he couldn't help but find a reason to refute it.
Warcraft is really the biggest enemy of mankind in this era, although on the surface of the human race still dominates the land, but for most areas, humans have lost control and are occupied by those Warcraft.
Every year, many people have been sacrificed to clean up the demonic beasts in the area of human activities, and they don't have the strength to clean up the rare deep mountains and old forests.
I'm afraid that no one will go to those places except for those professional hunters who hunt demonic beasts for a living.
"Not all demonic beasts are so powerful, and some demonic beasts are not much stronger than ordinary animals. Don't scare yourself. The team leader was silent for a moment and said with relief, this was not yet a move, and he was scared of his courage before he made a move, and how much strength he could exert later.
"Yes! Besides, we can't, and there are soldiers and mysterious hunters! Another policeman said jokingly.
With their words, the surrounding policemen relaxed and began to prepare tools. They brought with them tools to deal with rats, which were special animal repellent devices.
The animal repellent is a non-toxic and irritating liquid, which is a special equipment used by the police to drive away animals.
In some places, there are often swarms of various insects and snakes, which are not easy to clean. So this tool was made to disperse them.
