Chapter 378: Already infected

Shen Yu walked on the road of the sick village, except for the fog that shrouded the outer part of the village, the fog in the entire village had no effect on him.

His expression was not as relaxed as just now, but extremely serious, extremely rare serious.

He almost immediately threw away the handkerchief, which he used when he covered Xu Tingfang's mouth just now.

Xu Tingfang didn't realize that he was dying.

The woman told him all the contents of the "Sick Village Record", and there was not much content, if she remembered correctly, then she must be crazy.

Because the location of the [library] is not mentioned at all in the "Records of the Sick Village".

But Xu Tingfang subconsciously told him that there were six locations.

She counted the [library] she was in, and her consciousness had been affected by some kind of existence, but she didn't know it yet......

The "frog egg" on Xu Tingfang's face was caused by touching the book?

————

Ten minutes ago.

Through the communication with the "shopping guide", Shen Yu successfully stood at the door of the supermarket and cleared the supermarket area by not going in to "trigger the plot".

After clearing the customs, everything in the supermarket showed his true appearance.

The bloated rotting corpse standing at the cash register can vaguely be seen to be a young lady.

In the store manager's office, there is only half a head left of the direct middle-aged store manager.

A shopping guide with a large hole in his abdomen and rotting organs falling to the ground.

The security guard with a flashlight in his mouth and his head lying on his back in the corner, bleeding all over the place.

This supermarket, everyone is dead.

Their deaths were extremely tragic, but they all had one thing in common - all the corpses had their necks covered with dense "frog eggs" like sticky particles.

Shen Lu entered the supermarket, walking among the rotting flesh and fishy smell, he didn't feel disgusted, just curious.

They are dead, who gave them the person who communicated with them just now, and the state that seems to be alive?

He didn't leave the supermarket as soon as he cleared his personal area, but chose to continue exploring.

In Shen Yu's view, any action in this world is meaningful, even if a person scratches his face unconsciously, it is meaningful, because maybe that person doesn't realize that the skin is itching.

Therefore, the [Pupil Realm] broke everyone apart and divided them into different places, which must also have its meaning.

For example, only certain people in each area can "see" certain clues, which is not surprising in a village where the fog is "specially displayed" to the player.

He was very careful, the whole supermarket was not big, and the supermarket in the village was actually not that big, so Shen Ji quickly visited the entire supermarket.

He did not find any bodies belonging to "customers" in the supermarket, except for four bodies that appeared to be the original personnel of the supermarket.

So, the clue should be on these people?

Those disgusting "frog eggs" are also on them.

His instinct told him that it was best not to touch the "frog eggs", which were probably the [poisons] mentioned in the rules and needed to be sterilized.

Picked up the plastic stick that fell from the security guard's side, picked up the security guard's clothes with a flashlight in his mouth, and roughly checked his things, but found no clues.

However, his death made Shen Ji a little curious, this security guard was the only one among the supermarket staff who didn't look like he had been killed by a ghost or a monster, he was more like he was killed by a "human".

Shen Yu got up and walked towards the cashier and the shopping guide whose bodies were completely decomposed.

Whether it was their work area or their bodies, Shen Ji still didn't find any clues.

However, Shen Yu found that the "frog eggs" on these two people seemed to be alive?

When she used a plastic stick to pick open the cashier's collar just now, the "frog egg" on her neck was squirming slightly, trying to wrap the plastic stick and crawl over.

Shen Yu immediately threw the plastic stick far away and picked up a broom again.

The only place where there may be clues is the store manager.

Entering the store manager's office, a strong stench almost made Shen Yu unable to open his eyes, he frowned slightly, fanned the air in front of his nose, leaned in front of the store manager, and just picked up the store manager's clothes with a broom, suddenly!

A slender black thread shot at his face!

Shen Yu's pupils shrank, and he reacted extremely quickly to the side of his head, dodging the black line!

The black thread fell to the ground, like a strand of hair scorched by fire, curled rapidly, shrunk into a small black dot in the blink of an eye, and did not move.

Shen Ji stood in place, looking sideways at the boss's corpse, would he "die" if he broke away from the host?

It seems that the strange talk in the sick village does come from some kind of "parasite".

Shen Yu continued to move, picked open the boss's clothes, and after removing the layers of bloody clothes, a notebook rolled off the boss's body and fell to the ground.

Shen Ji picked it up and saw that it was an account book.

He threw the broom on the ground, picked up the ledger, and left the supermarket, not ready to stay here for long.

No one knows how many of those "black line parasites" are still on the boss's body.

While walking, I looked through it, and this was indeed the supermarket's ledger, recording what goods were sold today, how much income was made, and how much was spent.

All records look normal at first glance.

But...... Shen Ji's gaze suddenly stopped on one of the pages.

[Damn, it's a big loss, which old man in the nursing home came to drink on credit? ] 】

[What a fuck, no one remembers.] 】

[Thanks to Lao Tzu for a box of wine, drink it, drink it to death you old dog! ] 】

The ledger has some complaints from the boss.

But more importantly, there is the record of the day, there is an old man from the nursing home who took a case of wine on credit, but no one remembers who the old man is.

This thing is full of weirdness.

If a person doesn't remember, it can be said that it is a memory problem, but there are four people in the supermarket, the security guard, the cashier, the shopping guide and the boss all can't remember, then it is obviously something strange.

Wine, old man in a nursing home.

Shen Ji kept these two points in his heart, and now he looked back and thought, just now in the supermarket, it seems that he really didn't see any alcohol?

Interesting......

After putting the ledger away, Shen Yu glanced around, and the nearest building was the library diagonally in front of him.

And a library in the village?

It is worthy of engaging in tourism.

So...... Will there be players there?

He walked along, and when he saw the sign outside the library with the rules written on it, he knew that there were eighty percent of people inside.

Shen Yu glanced in the direction of the library, the door was closed, but the window at the back was open.

He thought about it for a moment and went straight through the window.

However, as soon as he entered the library, Shen Yu felt an extremely oppressive and cold atmosphere.

I didn't see anything in the library, but it was like a black patch, crowded with people.

At this moment, he suddenly heard some slight movements.

Gazing intently, he saw a figure.

Is it Xu Tingfang?

From his point of view, he could see that Xu Tingfang was constantly moving some books to the ground, however, when he saw Xu Tingfang's face, Shen Yu's complexion suddenly changed.

The sporadic "frog eggs" have already been lying on Xu Tingfang's neck, and even her chin, almost to the position of her lips, there are some "frog eggs"!

Didn't she find out herself?

Shen Ji walked slightly to the wall behind her, watching her movements.

Judging from her actions, Xu Tingfang should still be a human, but there are already sporadic "frog eggs" on her neck and chin!

It's the same as the corpses I just saw in the supermarket......

Shen Yu took out a handkerchief and looked at her, that ...... Let's try to get those things down.

After Xu Tingfang leaned over, Shen Ji covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and when he let go, he quietly put his chin up.

However...... Completely useless.

Those "frog eggs" were still on his chin and neck, and he had tried so hard that he still couldn't get them off.

After a short period of thought, Shen Yu decided not to tell her this grim reality.

Even the wine didn't work.

If she wants to survive, she must clear this game as soon as possible and leave the [Sick Village] before the "frog eggs" mature.

Thank you Asuka Joan, Wei Lin for the tip.
