8 Pier

Zhang Yang reminded in a low voice: "No one believes in giant insects!"

Ye Han was worried and said loudly: "This is not an accident, this is a terrorist attack. Heavy firepower must be sent here. If the special police cannot do it, please contact the armed police and the People's Liberation Army immediately."

"What? Are you kidding me?"

"Who are you kidding?" Ye Han was furious, "Don't you know how to check the monitoring of the island in the middle of the lake? If it doesn't work, contact the military, use drones, helicopters, and military satellites!"

"Are you crazy?"

"Let me say it again, this is a terrorist attack. The situation is extremely serious. If you don't want the police to die in vain, you must send heavy firepower!" Ye Han yelled at the phone, "What are you talking to me about when you answer the phone? Hurry up and tell your leaders what I told you.

Report it. If you don’t report the accident, you are fully responsible. If you report it, you have no responsibility. Do you understand?”

The other person was silent for a moment and said, "I know!"

"Go quickly!" Ye Han hung up the phone angrily and handed the phone back to Bai Xiaoting with a sullen face.

"Is it possible?" Bai Xiaoting asked.

"Do your best to obey fate." Ye Han smiled bitterly, "This is a bug, the bug with the strongest vitality."

Ordinary police officers are only equipped with pistols, and submachine guns are already considered heavy equipment in police equipment. Insects are extremely vital, so it is a bit unreliable to use light weapons to deal with giant insects.

"As long as you have a gun, this is not Starship Troopers. Is it possible that you can't kill the bugs with a gun?" Wu Liang said, squinting at Ye Han.

Professor Qin said angrily: "You are still studying biology, don't you know how vital insects are?"

Wu Liang argued: "A giant insect is so big, can it be compared with a small insect?"

"How do you know that giant insects are different from small insects?" Professor Qin asked.

"Professor, listen to me." Ye Han advised, "There are other people calling the police. Something must have happened on the island. This place is not safe. We must leave immediately!"

He jumped up loudly: "Yes, yes, something must have happened before someone called the police!"

Ye Han nodded: "There are usually a lot of people in this place, but today there is no one. It's so abnormal." Just now, he was just running for his life and didn't pay attention. It wasn't until now that he realized that something was wrong.

Professor Qin’s voice was low, “Where are we going?”

"Go to the dock, there is a boat there, let's run as far as we can!" Wu Liang said eagerly, "I don't want to stay here any longer for a minute or a second."

It’s not like I’ve read a lot of fantasy novels. Anyone who encounters something as bad as today would have a nervous breakdown.

Wu Liang's opinion was unanimously approved by everyone. Ye Han was the most familiar with the situation on the island in the middle of the lake, so he walked at the front and led the way without hesitation.

The island in the middle of the lake is not large, only about one square kilometer, but this island was originally a mountain, so the island has mountains and valleys and the terrain is complicated. Not far from the lake shore, you will walk on the mountain path leading to the pier.

The path is hidden among the lush trees, and the cool shade of the trees dissipates the heat of midsummer almost instantly, refreshing everyone's spirits.

Bai Xiaoting walked past a section of knotted tree roots protruding from the ground and asked curiously: "Grandpa, why are there red strips of cloth tied to these trees?" Although the woods are dense, there are no shrubs in the forest, so the sightline is excellent and you can see it at a glance.

You can see far away, so you don't have to worry about giant insects hiding nearby.

Ye Han glanced at her in surprise, when did she think of this? Women are too nervous, right?

"This is a century-old tree. Different places have different customs. In some places, red cloth strips are tied to pray for blessings, while in other places they are afraid that the old tree will become a spirit." Professor Qin explained.

Wu Liang sneered: "I don't know if the tree has become a spirit or not. I just know that the bugs have all become spirits. I took them to film Starship Troopers, and even the special effects were omitted."

Zhang Yang asked thoughtfully: "Professor, where do you think the giant insects come from?"

"It may be a genetic mutation caused by chemical pollution, or it may be a genetic mutation caused by radiation, but too little is known now. Without investigation, we have no right to say. It is difficult to say what the cause is." Professor Qin said cautiously.

Ye Han was startled when he heard this: "Professor Qin, tell me, have all the fish in the lake been eaten by these insects?"

"It's possible, very possible!" Professor Qin nodded heavily, "Giant insects cannot grow so big out of thin air. They must consume enough food."

Ye Han's eyes were distant: "Could it be that they were so hungry after eating all the fish that they came to the shore to eat people?"

The path was neither long nor steep. As they spoke, a few people crossed the ridge. From a high position, everyone looked down at the dock at the island in the middle of the lake.

Ye Han suddenly waved his hand: "Stop!"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Zhang Yang, who was following Ye Han, asked softly: "What's wrong?"

"Look!" Ye Han pointed towards the dock.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Yang poked his head curiously.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, what can you see with those big glasses? Look at me!" Wu Liang pulled Zhang Yang away, glanced in the direction of the dock, and exclaimed in surprise: "Where are the boats? Where have all the boats gone?

?”

Ye Han took out a pocket telescope from the small bag on his waist and held it up to his eyes to carefully observe the situation on the dock: "There is blood on the dock, a lot of blood, but no bodies."

The dock was paved with blue-grey stone slabs, and the blood stains on the stone slabs were extremely obvious.

Professor Qin sighed: "We take it too much for granted. The giant insect must have been here. How could the ship continue to stay on the dock when such a surprising thing happened?"

Several people's hearts sank in unison.

"Then what should we do? Are we trapped here waiting to die?" Wu Liang shouted anxiously.

"What's the fuss about? Haven't we already called the police?" Zhang Yang raised his voice unconsciously, "We'll take the police boat and leave by then."

Wu Liang pursed his lips and remained silent. Ye Han put down the telescope and said, "Professor, there are also blood stains on the edge of the square. Maybe the giant insect can come ashore!"

The pier of the island in the middle of the lake is connected to a small square, and the farthest point from the water is more than a hundred meters away. If the giant insects could not come ashore, there would never be so much blood on the edge of the square.

Everyone was stunned. Bai Xiaoting grabbed Professor Qin's arm in a hurry. Wu Liang's face turned pale: "What should I do? What should I do?"

At the critical moment, Professor Qin calmly patted his granddaughter's hand: "Xiaoye, if there are any sturdier buildings on the island, let's find a place to hide first."

"Yes!" Ye Han's eyes lit up, "Lake View Hotel, that must be the strongest place on the island!"

Bai Xiaoting was extremely surprised: "Is there a hotel on such a small island?"

"Xiaoting!" Professor Qin glared at her dissatisfied, "Xiaoye, please lead the way."

"No problem." Ye Han nodded happily, "The hotel is at the southernmost part of the island in the middle of the lake. Go all the way south, and that's the tallest building."

Bai Xiaoting looked south curiously, but her eyes were blocked by the layers of tree trunks and leaves, and she couldn't see any clues.
