The town is not large, and it seems that there are only one or two thousand households at most. Perhaps it is because it is in a remote location and there are not many extra entertainment programs. The residents of the town go to bed early. Now it is only about ten o'clock, but the whole town is
It was completely quiet, and almost all the houses were dark.
Only a few street lights on the street flickered.
Ye Xiu held Ye Youruo's little hand and cautiously entered the town. The further he walked into the town, the more he felt something was wrong.
Just because this town is too quiet, even if the residents of the town go to bed early, it is impossible for all residents to go to bed before ten o'clock.
From the street to the end of the street, no one had a light on, and even the few shops in the town that were labeled "commercial shops" were closed, and it was also dark inside.
Ye Xiu looked around again with some doubts and found that none of the residents had their lights on.
Ye Youruo was also a little nervous at the moment. This silent silence was even more terrifying than the dragon soul's pursuers.
"I'll go to the canteen first..." Ye Xiu whispered to Ye Youruo, and quietly came to the door of a shop on the street. The whole shop was an older kind of shop, and the door was also a glass door. Through the glass door
You can clearly see the various furnishings inside.
What surprised Ye Xiu slightly was that several shelves inside fell to the ground, and the products on the shelves were scattered all over the floor. From the looks of it, no one was cleaning them up at all.
This is extremely unusual. Normally, even if a shelf falls down, it will be cleaned up immediately and the goods will never be left scattered on the floor.
Ye Xiu knocked on the door lightly, but there was still no response. When he continued to knock harder, he found that the door of the canteen was not locked at all, so he pushed it open.
This discovery surprised Ye Youruo who was following behind.
"There's something weird..." Ye Xiu whispered, pushed open the glass door and walked in.
No matter how safe the town is, it is impossible for the doors to be unlocked, let alone all the shelves falling to the ground.
Ye Youruo followed behind and entered the canteen.
With the help of light coming from outside, the two discovered that the canteen was about 40 square meters in size, and there was a door inside, which should lead directly to the boss's accommodation.
Ye Xiu took a lighter from the counter of the canteen and walked in carefully. There was a stairwell inside and he went straight to the second floor. It was indeed a living area.
A living room, a kitchen, and a bedroom.
However, there was still no one around. Judging from the dust accumulated on the coffee table, no one had come in for at least seven or eight days.
Such a discovery made both Ye Xiu and Ye Youruo puzzled. What exactly happened here? Why was there no one in this canteen?
"Sister, you rest here for a while, I'll go look elsewhere..." Ye Xiuzai carefully checked the house, and after confirming that there was indeed no human figure, he said to Ye Youruo.
"Okay!" Ye Youruo nodded and carefully sat on the sofa to rest his bloody feet.
Ye Xiu went downstairs again. He first looked at both ends of the street. After making sure there were no other people, he then went into several houses next door. The doors of these houses were not locked and could be opened with a push. But inside
There was also no one around. When I walked to the third house, I found that this house was extremely messy compared to other houses. The sofa was overturned on the ground, chairs, tables, etc. were everywhere, and there were some signs of fighting.
, and even found a pool of blood on the ground.
The more Ye Xiu checked, the more frightened he became.
This is just a remote town, how could it become like this?
Ye Xiu, who did not believe in evil, checked a few more private houses, and the results were similar. Some were well preserved, while others had obvious signs of fighting, and some blood stains were left behind.
If Ye Xiu was alone, he might have checked the entire town, but worried that Ye Youruo was alone, he suppressed his curiosity and turned back to the canteen.
Pulling out a stack of gauze, a bottle of alcohol, a few bottles of mineral water, and some dry food from under the messy shelves, Ye Xiu came upstairs again.
"How's it going?" Seeing Ye Xiu coming back, Ye Youruo asked.
"No one is there, and depending on the situation, the residents of the town have been away for at least seven or eight days..." Ye Xiu told Ye Youruo what he had learned.
Ye Youruo frowned, also a little confused as to why this happened.
"Let me clean your wound first..." Ye Xiu walked to Ye Youruo and sat down, placing Ye Youruo's legs on his own.
Because he was worried that turning on the lights would cause other accidents, Ye Xiu could only use the street light shining in from the window to clean the wounds on Ye Youruo's feet. Fortunately, his eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people, and this weak light could also
See clearly.
The stinging pain from the wound made Ye Youruo break into a cold sweat, but she endured the severe pain and prevented herself from screaming.
"There was news on the Internet a while ago that a plague broke out in some places in Giessen Province. Do you think this town is one of the towns affected by the plague? All the residents in the town have been quarantined?" he said while holding back the words coming from the soles of his feet.
Severe pain, Ye Youruo whispered!
"Plague?" Ye Xiu raised an eyebrow. He had been busy with Dragon Soul matters during this period and had no time to surf the Internet. He had never received such news.
"Well, it's just articles published by some self-media accounts, there is no official news, and many of those self-media accounts were banned in the end. It seems that they are deliberately hiding this matter..." Ye Youruo said softly.
"If it was just a plague, why did you hide it? But judging from the situation in the town, it may be true that the residents of the town were quarantined..." Ye Xiu was a little confused and gave his own judgment.
Ye Youruo was also a little puzzled. Nowadays, medical technology is extremely advanced. As long as ordinary plagues are controlled and treated in time, they will not cause too much disaster or too much panic. There is really no need to deliberately hide it.
"But no matter what, at least we are safe tonight. Sister, do you want to take a bath first, and I will re-bandage your wound..." The two of them are currently on the run, and they are not in the mood to study the changes in this town in detail.
"Yes!" Ye Youruo nodded. After running away for a day, she was already exhausted and her body was covered with dirt. It would be good to have a chance to take a shower now.
I don’t know how long I will be on the run next.
Ye Xiu carefully helped Ye Youruo into the bathroom. He had just come out of the bathroom and was about to find some clothes for Ye Youruo to easily escape. From the east side of the town, there was a roaring sound of a motor. Ye Xiu's expression changed.
He changed slightly and rushed into the bathroom. Ye Youruo had just taken off his clothes and was about to turn on the faucet to clean himself. When he suddenly saw Ye Xiu barging in, he was stunned...
