I leaned against the glass and fell asleep, perhaps because my nerves had been tense for a long time and I was too tired. However, this sleep made my back hurt and my hands and feet were numb.

I moved my hands and feet, and when the discomfort subsided, I lifted the corner of the curtain again.

Outside, there was still a dead silence, but at some point the dark clouds had cleared, and the orange sun and the position of the sun told me the approximate time. It should be around four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

I let go of the curtains and lay down on the floor, the cool marble relieving me of tension and stress.

By night, if they don't come out at night, then I can basically conclude that they are dormant or metamorphosing. This idea comes from a novel I've read before, and if that's the case, it's certainly best for now. As long as I don't alarm them, then I can get out of here safely. However, at the far end of the day, this is the worst, because if they can continue to evolve, it will make the surviving humans despair!

Perhaps one day when they are born with wisdom, we will be at the bottom of the food chain, reduced to animals in their eyes.

I shook my head, suppressing the horrible conjecture for a moment. Maybe they're really like vampires, and though I had rejected the ridiculous idea before, it was able to suppress the horrible conjecture from spreading in my mind.

It gets dark very slowly, and in the absence of any electronic products and information exchange, as a modern person, its pain can be imagined. Loneliness, this is a feeling that cannot be accustomed, unless you become sacred or become a nerve.

I squinted my eyes and stroked the fruit knife in my hand over and over again, wondering if I should go to find survivors like me here, after all, people are social animals, and when the individual is not strong enough, the group is more powerful. However, there are too many risks.

"Shhh

The dark red blood flowed, and I subconsciously sniffed my nose, and there seemed to be a strange fragrance.

I put my finger close to my nose and sniffed it closely, but the smell was not stronger. I got it on the tip of my tongue again, and it was still the usual coppery smell.

I stood up, looking for the source of the scent. In such an environment, any sudden and unknown event can cause a strong reaction. I have to find out the root cause, or I won't be able to stay in peace anymore.

This time I took off all the clothes that were hanging and looked at them in the open area, even inside the big washing machine. However, there is still no abnormality, which is enough to show that this strange fragrance is from outside!

However, there doesn't seem to be any movement outside. The damn smell touched my sensitive nerves now, and I punched the air in frustration.

When the sun went down, I still hadn't found the source of the smell. There was no electricity, and the house was dark, but even if there was electricity, I wouldn't turn it on, I didn't dare to turn it on.

The night I was looking forward to had arrived, and the road outside was dark, and I could only hope that the moon would be good enough tonight so that I could know what was going on outside.

It doesn't need to be too bright, as long as I can see those blurry figures.

Peel aside a lollipop and put it in your mouth to taste it. This is a good thing that I picked up on the road, for those who can smoke, the smoke of the last days is a rare treasure, and for people like me who can't smoke, it seems that you can find the feeling of smoking with a lollipop in your mouth.

Today's moon is really powerful, big and round enough! But I didn't notice any rickety figures, which is very bad! The suppressed horror conjecture turned over again!

"If that's the case, what should we do, and where is the future of humanity?" I muttered to myself. At this point, I completely forgot one thing, that is, I convinced myself to believe this horrible conjecture without any evidence, knowing that this conjecture was only because of the post-apocalyptic novels I had read before!

I don't know when I slept last night, but when I woke up in the morning I found myself lying on a pile of clothes, and although it was summer, it was really not warm this year.

I yawned, and if it weren't for this disaster, I might have chosen to stay in bed for now. But it was time for me to get up and run, and I didn't find anything alive until I fell asleep last night. So now I'm going to seize what seems like the safest time.

I ate a few leftover biscuits, but this time I ate a few more, because I wasn't going to have lunch, and after I finished eating, I cautiously hit the road again.

The weather is sunny and cloudless, and the only ones who are not affected are this old man. When it should rain, it will rain, and if you want to be sunny, it will be sunny.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and walked slowly without being overly nervous, my steps gradually becoming brisk. It's just that the smell I smelled yesterday is still the same, and even stronger, but the smell is not as strong as that of inferior perfumes. Even if it's strong, the taste is still good.

I noticed something strange along the way, as all the sewer manhole covers I passed had been lifted aside, leaving large patches of black blood and lumps that looked like sun-dried pieces of meat.

At first, I didn't care, but after seeing too much, I subconsciously chose to retreat, and these signs seemed to reveal a message to me: they were all dormant underneath!

In fact, what really stopped me was a hand that was clinging to the edge of the well, and all I could see was four thin, stained fingers.

I am afraid that the sound of my footsteps will alarm the owner of this hand, and this is the way I must go!

I can already hear my heart beating stronger and stronger.

"MD!" I cursed inwardly as I gripped the bloody spear tightly.

"Afraid of death! You shouldn't have walked out of the grocery store that almost became your grave!" I was annoyed by my hesitation and cowardice!

"It's a big deal, you're cheap!" Taking advantage of the current enthusiasm, not only did I not take a detour, but I also strode directly towards that hand.

I gritted my teeth, and I could feel how fierce I looked! When I walked to the edge of the well, I leaned my head over, and all I could see was a severed hand, which was clutched at the edge of the well! Other than that, it was pitch black underneath! And it seemed that the smell was stronger, as if the smell was coming from here. I recalled, and it seemed that every time I felt the smell of this fragrance become stronger, there was a sewer near me!

I felt a chill on my sweaty back, and my vision suddenly became blurry, and I felt dizzy and my legs were a little unsteady, as if I was drunk.

I sat down on the ground, looking at the sun, but I didn't feel dazzling, the strange thing was that the sun turned red in my eyes, not just the sun! It was as if I had a red plastic bag in front of my eyes! I closed my eyes and gasped for breath with difficulty, and when I recovered a little, I immediately avoided it.

I leaned against a nearby car and blinked hard. And the red color gradually faded, and when I was fully recovered, I looked at the half-hidden sewer with trepidation. I'm sure that the fragrant gas has a secret that no one knows!

I stood up abruptly and rubbed my eyes to make sure there was no dazzle!

That hand is gone!
