Chapter 322: The Smell of Blood
Although the ghoul virus caused panic in the whole city, many city residents usually hide at home and do not come out, but life always has to go on.
Some of the places that sell the necessities of life will become more lively than before.
For example, in the vegetable market right now, everything sold here is closely related to the lives of ordinary people, not to mention ordinary people, even if it is a mutant like Ye Xun, it is inevitable to come and visit every now and then.
After entering the vegetable market, Ye Xun immediately chose a place with fewer people, stood on a high place, and looked around the market.
The market is crowded, it seems to be very lively, and there are many middle-aged aunts who are bargaining in front of the stalls, and the spittle stars are flying all over the sky, which sets off the atmosphere of the whole market extraordinarily noisy.
Ye Xun looked around for a long time, but he didn't sense anything wrong, so he had to walk to the most suspicious butcher shops, pretending to pick fresh ingredients, but his eyes kept sweeping over the faces of several butcher shop owners.
Generally speaking, people infected with the ghoul virus, even if they are in the incubation period of the virus, can also see a rough idea with Ye Xun's perception ability.
It's a pity that these butcher shop owners are quite normal, Ye Xun looked around for a long time and didn't notice any problems.
He was a little disappointed in his heart, and was about to turn around, when a vendor in the market who was patronized by him walked up with a smile, "Boss Ye, come to buy food again?" Why don't you choose something fresh to go back today, I have a batch of meat rabbits here, it's quite fat......"
Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, looked back at the man who spoke, and said with a smile, "It's Brother Li, I still have a lot of inventory at home recently, and I don't want to buy meat...... By the way, if you are free now, I would like to ask you something. ”
Ye Xun will come to these markets every once in a while to "buy" because of his special appetite, and after a long time, he became familiar with these butcher shop owners, so he directly handed over a cigarette.
Brother Li took the cigarette with a smile and put it directly on the back of his ear, "What's the matter, you say." ”
"That is, have there been any cases of missing people in this area? Secondly, your market is so big, people come and go all the time, and the probability of 'flu' is quite high, right? ”
Brother Li was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said no, now the market is so strictly managed, disinfectant water has to be sprinkled several times a day, as for the missing case and the like, I have never heard of it, anyway, it is quite safe here, at least there have been no "cases" in the past few days.
Ye Xun sighed, but he didn't hear the news he wanted, so he turned around and left.
At this time, your brother seemed to think of something, and said coldly,
"When you asked, I really remembered that on the street behind the market, there is a private hospital, and it is said that there are always inexplicably throwing corpses recently, and there is a nurse who was almost attacked by something when she got off the night shift, which made people panic."
"Hospital?"
Ye Xun paused, looked in the direction indicated by Brother Li, thought for a while, and immediately walked in the direction where the hospital was located.
Ye Xun suspected that the person who left the pile of bones might be the owner of a butcher shop in the vegetable market, after all, these people are skilled in knife work, and they are doing the work of cutting meat and removing bones all day long, so they are very suspicious.
But he ignores that there is another profession in this world, where the knife worker is even better than these butcher stall owners, and knows more about the structure of the human body.
That's the hospital's surgeon.
Thinking of this, Ye Xun decided to go to that hospital again to see the situation, maybe he would find out.
He quickened his pace, and within a few minutes came to the door of the private hospital, and when he was considering whether to go in, he saw a rather slender figure appearing from the entrance of the hospital.
"Li Xue?"
Ye Xun was stunned, and hurriedly walked towards the slender figure, and the other party was also stunned for a moment, looked back at Ye Xun who was waving to him, and walked quickly, and said in surprise,
"Ye Xun, why did you come to the hospital?"
Ye Xun smiled, didn't explain why he went to the hospital, but asked Li Xue why he was here?
Li Xue sighed and said, "Didn't I hurt my shoulder before, although I have recovered, but the meridians on my arm are still a little blocked, some people say that in this private hospital, there is an old doctor with good acupuncture skills, so I plan to come over to recuperate." ”
Ye Xun sighed, and said, "Don't let the fat man accompany you for Mao." ”
"Don't mention that guy, hmph, now I only know how to play with my mobile phone all day long, and I still chat with the little girl at night, so I don't have time to care about me." As soon as she said this, Li Xue's little temperament suddenly came up, and she stomped her feet and snorted, looking very angry.
Ye Xun smiled and hurriedly covered for his good buddy, "Actually, Wang Gang is quite honest, you must have misunderstood him...... By the way, since I met, I still have something I want to ask you, is it inconvenient to find a place to talk with me? ”
Li Xue nodded, "Okay, I haven't eaten anyway, let's find a place to fill my stomach first." ”
Subsequently, the two found a small restaurant on the road opposite the hospital, and after taking a seat, Ye Xun looked at the menu and asked Li Xue, "Have you been coming to this hospital often lately?" ”
"yes!"
Li Xue ordered a simple meal, and winked at Ye Xun in confusion, "What's the problem?" ”
"I didn't ...... I just suspect that there may be some kind of criminals hidden in this hospital, since you often come here for acupuncture, can you keep an eye on it for me? ”
Ye Xun ordered a raw steak and told what happened to him.
Hearing this, Li Xue suddenly looked very surprised, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "No, how can there be such a pervert, are you sure you are not mistaken?" ”
Ye Xun smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I really hope that I made a mistake, but unfortunately the appearance of that corpse makes me can't help but take it seriously." ”
Li Xue agreed, and after eating, she stood up and looked at her watch, saying that it was getting dark, and she had made an appointment with a doctor, so she wouldn't talk to Ye Xun first.
Ye Xun nodded, watched Li Xue leave, and was about to run to the counter to settle the bill, but he was cold, but he saw a middle-aged doctor in a white coat with a relatively thin body, who was walking out of the other direction of the restaurant, and was immediately attracted by him.
The man in the coat was about fifty years old, middle-aged, a little tired, carrying a lunch box in his hand, and was hurrying towards the hospital across the street, thinking that it was the employee of the private hospital.
The reason why Ye Xun paid so much attention to the other party was mainly because there was an extremely faint smell of blood on this person's body, although it was covered by disinfectant potions and medical alcohol, but the faint fishy sweet taste could not hide Ye Xun's perception.
Out of curiosity, Ye Xun silently followed, until he walked into the hospital, and watched this person turn into an outpatient room, open the lunch box and eat the contents of it, and didn't seem to make any abnormal reaction.
But for some reason, Ye Xun always felt that there should be something wrong with this person, the place where he was on duty was an ordinary outpatient clinic, and it stands to reason that there was no need to operate on the patient, but why was there that faint smell of blood on his body?
