"It's disgusting...... Qiao Jiajin frowned and looked at the dirty things on the ground, "This pungent smell, it can't be excrement, right?" ”

Excreta?

Qi Xia suddenly turned his head to look at Qiao Jiajin.

That's an interesting point.

In other words, there are other people here besides the nine of them and the animal masks.

Or rather...... Other "things".

This person or "thing" seems to have lived here for a long time, otherwise it would not have been possible to leave excrement all over the floor.

Everyone rummaged around, but they couldn't find any needle and thread or gauze. And there are no pharmacies or clinics outside the convenience store, so blindly go out to look for it, Han Yimo is afraid that he will not be able to hold on for so long.

"What can I do......" Officer Li crossed his hands on his hips and looked at Dr. Zhao helplessly, as if asking for his opinion.

Before Dr. Zhao could speak, there was a sound behind the cash register of the convenience store, and the door of the staff lounge slowly opened.

The nine were stunned and immediately took a few steps back to look at the slowly opening door.

An emaciated figure flashed out from behind the door.

When I looked closely, it was a girl who was so thin that she didn't have a human shape, and she couldn't tell her age at all.

Her cheeks were deeply sunken, and her eyes bulged outward, as if there was no flesh left on her entire face.

She pursed her chapped lips and looked at a few people curiously.

After a short pause, she seemed to react, hurriedly tidied up her dirty and shabby clothes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Welcome......"

Welcome...... To?

Officer Li carefully understood the meaning of this sentence and seemed to understand.

"Are you...... Shop assistant? ”

The girl nodded: "Hmm." ”

The crowd did not speak again, because the incident revealed an irrationality.

Not to mention why there are other humans here, even if she is really a "store clerk", why would she work in a completely dilapidated convenience store?

Seeing that everyone didn't move, the clerk could only say tentatively: "Please choose at will." ”

That being said, where is there room for "picking"?

There were almost no goods on the shelves, and what was left was rotten and stained with filth.

The clerk's eyes were glazed, and he looked at a few people.

This gaze scared a few girls.

"Do you have a needle and thread?" Qi Xia asked the clerk without changing his face.

"Needle...... Line? The clerk's eyes moved slightly, and then he stretched out his hand, simulating the movement of threading a needle, "You mean...... This kind of needlework? ”

Only then did everyone realize that her hands were covered with dried black blood, which was very terrifying.

Qi Xia took another step forward and said, "It's this kind of needle and thread, do you sell it?" ”

"Liar, you ......" Before Qiao Jiajin met Qi Xia, he felt that he was the most courageous person in the world, but now even he didn't dare to talk to this woman, "This woman is abnormal, can't you see it?" ”

"What do you see?" Qi Xia said steadily, "Our situation can't be worse than it is now. ”

The female clerk pondered for a while, and suddenly opened the partition at the front desk and rushed out.

Only then did the crowd see her in full detail.

She was wearing a dirty, fat white shirt that looked as incongruous as if it were hanging on a hanger.

I don't know what was smeared on my shirt, it felt like oil, and it looked like blood.

The shirt was almost up to her knees, her lower body seemed to be without pants, and her thighs were covered in dried blood.

Qi Xia frowned slightly, wanting to take a step back, but was choked by the female clerk.

He felt as if his wrist was entangled in an old vine, dry and painful.

"I've got it here!!" The female clerk opened her mouth, revealing her yellowed teeth, "There is a needle and thread!" Come with me! ”

Her hand kept pointing at the "staff lounge", as if she wanted Qi Xia to follow her in.

Everyone was really scared by her, and judging by the woman's current behavior, it was really not a good idea to walk in with her.

"Forget it...... We don't buy it! Qiao Jiajin walked up and tried to pull the woman's hand away, "You let go first." ”

But the female clerk didn't seem to hear it, and she showed a happy smile while pulling Qi Xia to move her steps.

"There's needlework in this room! Here you go! ”

Her strength is even greater than that of Qiao Jiajin and Qi Xia combined.

"Hey!! Come and help! Qiao Jiajin turned around and roared.

Officer Li and Dr. Zhao came back to their senses and hurriedly rushed forward.

The female clerk couldn't help but quicken her pace.

Qi Xia only felt a huge force dragging him, and he couldn't break free at all.

The two of them were not far from the staff lounge, and now they had entered the door after six or seven steps.

Dr. Zhao and Officer Li were pulling Qi Xia out, but they didn't expect the female clerk to suddenly let go of her hand.

"Ahh

With an exclamation, several people almost fell.

After each of them stood firm, they saw that the female clerk didn't care about a few people, but turned around and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the house to find something.

The four men also looked at the room in shock.

It was slightly cleaner than outside, with a folding bed in the corner and yellowed bedding.

There is also a large pool of blood on it, which looks relatively fresh.

In another corner, a rusty iron pot was sitting on a makeshift stove, gurgling with something cooking.

And the female clerk is oblivious to everything and is rummaging through an old box.

"Where is it...... ......"She kept throwing out the contents of the box, which contained cans, old magazines, pots and pans.

Qiao Jiajin touched his nose and looked at the iron pot.

"Speaking of which, I'm really hungry." He whispered to Qi Xia, "If only she wasn't a crazy woman, I want to ask her if she can let me have a meal." ”

Qi Xia glanced at the iron pot, and there was a white thing boiling in it.

He was also feeling a little hungry.

"You dare to eat anything from this place?" Officer Lee asked, "Who knows how dirty that thing is......

"But it smells good."

Qiao Jiajin is right, thanks to the blessing of this iron pot, the smell in the room is actually fragrant, covering the stench.

"What are you cooking?" Qiao Jiajin asked boldly, it seemed that he really wanted to take a bite.

"Little piglet." The female clerk replied.

"Little piglet?"

Qiao Jiajin became interested and was about to go to the iron pot to have a look, but the female clerk exclaimed.

"Ahh Got it! ”

I saw her turn around, holding an object in both hands, and said to everyone excitedly: "Look! Sewing! ”

Officer Li stepped forward to look at it, and his face was a little embarrassed.

It's not a "needle and thread", but a rusty hook with a small bundle of messy fishing line.

He turned to look at Dr. Zhao and gestured to him with his eyes.

Doctor Zhao thought for a moment, stared at the hook and line, and asked, "Girl, are there any other needles and threads?" ”

"Nope." The female clerk shook her head, "Only this, do you buy it?" ”
