Every day is one step closer to reality

After Feng Yi located the direction of the "little koi", he did not wait at the same place, but asked Xiao Jia to drive in that direction.

Not long after, he discovered that the target had stopped for unknown reasons. I originally thought that the other party was just stopping temporarily and would start again after taking a short rest. Unexpectedly, this was not the case.

Are the buyers there?

Regardless of the truth, Feng Yi determined the general direction and headed there directly with Xiao Jia.

At the junction of the two provinces, there is a small county town.

A private clinic.

A small clinic with only one floor.

"Bacterial infections?!"

The driver was shocked.

He took his companion to a nearby small clinic and let the doctor here take a look first.

The reason for the injury was that they were playing nearby and their companion was bitten by something unknown. After that, he suddenly fell into a fever and became comatose, and his hands swelled into pig's trotters.

Before coming, he also made some small modifications on the wound of his accomplice, so that it was even less obvious that it was a small python bite.

There was obvious inflammation in the wound, which was too conspicuous and had to be modified to be on the safe side.

The doctor didn't doubt what he said. At most, he just thought that the way they treated the wound was wrong.

The doctor at the clinic said a lot, and the driver didn't understand a lot of it, but he understood the key sentence.

He originally thought it was some unknown snake venom, but the doctor at the clinic told him that it might be a bacterial infection? !

However, it’s not just snake venom.

Bacterial infection is such a simple thing, so common.

"So his appearance is definitely caused by... the wound on his hand?"

"It's possible that there may be some other poison. Our clinic's capacity is limited. I suggest you take him to a large hospital for a detailed examination." The doctor said.

The driver listened to the doctor at the clinic and thought that this doctor was not very reliable. As for big hospitals, it is impossible to go there.

No matter what he was thinking in his heart, he still showed embarrassment on his face, "Oh, I don't know what kind of insect bite it is."

"There are a lot of mosquitoes this season. A simple bite may not be that serious. But if you get something dirty, you will still suffer a bit," the doctor said.

The doctor at the clinic disinfected and cleaned the wounds of the unconscious man, and also gave him some antibiotics. Originally he wanted to give the patient an infusion, but the driver refused and said he was taking him to the hospital for a check-up.

Infusion takes a lot of time!

The doctor at the clinic didn't know what the driver was thinking. He saw that the patient was still unconscious and his body temperature had not dropped much.

"Then take him to the hospital quickly!" The doctor did not dare to keep this man in the clinic. What should I do if something goes wrong?

The driver quickly took his accomplice back to the car.

They won't go to the hospital, and they don't even dare to let this accomplice interact with others alone. If they become confused and say something they shouldn't say, their situation will be even more dangerous.

I found a drugstore that didn't require an ID card, bought some antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and simple supplies, and then found a short-term rental house in an inconspicuous area.

Unlike hotels where ID checks are strict, even if you need to register, you can get it done with a fake ID.

The rental area is not large, with one bedroom with bathroom and a small dining room.

The accomplice who took the medicine did not improve significantly, but he did not continue to get worse and looked the same as before.

The only difference was that the hand that was bitten was more swollen.

The driver looked at the little python in the box and couldn't tell whether it was in good or bad condition. At least it was still alive.

Carefully set the python box aside.

He thought about what to do next.

The plan has changed, and he has to deliver the goods quickly, otherwise if something goes wrong, he won't get a dime!

Fortunately, snakes don’t need to be fed frequently.

They didn't prepare food for the snakes at all. I heard that these small snakes are fed to suckling rats in the zoo. What a hassle!

Originally, according to their expectations, if everything went well, the goods would be delivered to the buyer within 24 hours, and there would be no need to feed them any food at all. Snakes are relatively resistant to hunger.

The "little koi" is very famous. There is an account in the reptile house of the zoo. It often posts updates related to the "little koi", such as what day it was fed, what it ate, and what day the snake nest was cleaned.

After all, this little python shouldn't be hungry now.

What he was worried about was that the snake was acclimatized.

The conditions in the zoo are so good, but a snake like this that is artificially fed has a delicate constitution, and this one was not in good health when it was born. What should I do if it gets sick over time?

He doesn't know how to take care of a snake!

After thinking it over, he called his employer.

"I encountered a small accident and couldn't solve it. The car can't move for the time being. I can't get to the place you said according to the estimated time. I don't dare to keep the goods in my hands. I hope to change the transaction location and deliver the goods directly here." He I didn't tell the other party that anyone here was sick.

The person on the phone suddenly paused in breathing, and then took a deep breath as if to suppress his emotions:

"Is that snake still alive?"

"It's awesome! Why don't you start a video? Or I can take a photo and send it to you?" the driver said.

This would easily leak information, and he didn't want to verify it in this way unless necessary.

Sure enough, the other person hesitated for a moment and said in a gloomy tone, "No, I'll send someone to get it right away! Remember, what I want is a live snake, a live one! If something goes wrong, I won't give you a cent!"

"I know! Call me when your people arrive in the county. I will tell you the specific delivery location as soon as possible. If you delay it for a few hours, I can't guarantee that the little snake is still alive. Also, I only want cash and I don't accept it. Transfer money!" the driver emphasized.

"Wait!"

The call was cut off over there.

Look out the window, it's dark.

The driver looked at his accomplice who was lying down, but the fever still hadn't gone away. There was no worry in his eyes, but strong disgust.

If he wasn't worried that throwing the person outside would cause more unnecessary trouble, and his time was limited, he would have just thrown the person into the mountains to feed the wild beasts!

So annoying!

So mean!

The snake is so good in the box, but I want to take it out and play!

You missed me!

Deserve it!

Don’t get any of the reward this time!

After eating something casually, the driver planned to rest first to ensure he had enough energy to deal with the next thing.

It's still early and there's some noise outside.

After falling asleep for a while, I heard the sound of a mouse running outside again.

It was creaking. I don’t know if it was flirting or a fight between people. It was quite intense. There were the sounds of overturning debris and the shouts and curses of the surrounding residents.

After a while, the mice stopped screaming.

oh.

There is a cat meowing.

The wild cats smelled the smell and came to look for food.

This is indeed not a good place, but everything is temporary.

He thought that he would soon have money.

He had already thought about how to use the money he got.

He drifted off to sleep.

The dream was full of ecstasy.

Until the sweet dream was awakened by the ringing of the phone.

The delivery person has arrived.

The driver was instantly alert.

It seems that the employer does not trust them, and there are people along the way to deal with emergencies at any time.

If it was really at the border, it would be impossible to rush over so quickly.

I made an appointment with the person who picked up the goods. It was a nearby night market. There were a lot of people coming and going, and it was not easy for them to attract attention in the past.

He did not directly report the specific address of the residence. He would decide which plan to follow after meeting the recipient.

He didn't take the little python with him when he went out. The driver didn't dare to go directly to deliver the goods by himself. He was afraid that the people would be gone before he got the money.

The box containing the python was originally planned to be hidden in the bedroom, but after thinking about it, it was moved to another place.

It's hard to guarantee that no one sneaks in during the time you're away.

There is not much space here and it is a bit messy.

Especially in the restaurant, there is domestic garbage left by the previous tenant, and cartons and empty bottles are piled in a corner.

He put the box containing the python in the cupboard. The boa constrictor didn't move even when it was closed in the box, and didn't make any sound.

The small box was inconspicuous among the piles of domestic garbage.

He also brought a T-shirt washed outside the window into the house, moved the clothes drying rack indoors, and hung the clothes in the dining room.

The clothes drying rack was right in front of the pile of domestic garbage.

Due to the small indoor area, this kind of clothes drying rack can only be placed in the dining room instead of the bedroom. Many tenants place it this way.

This way, people who come into the house won’t look through the cupboards immediately.

Before going out, lock the bedroom windows. If there are no windows in the bathroom, leave it alone.

There is a long and narrow window in the restaurant. It is a sliding window that cannot let people in. It can be opened half way for ventilation. It also has a mosquito screen to prevent insects from entering.

There is a patient in the room, and there must be a window for ventilation. We can't let him go without it now.

Check around and turn off the lights. When he went out, he made a small mark on the door lock.

When he left, the room was dark.

In the quiet room, only the heavy breathing of the patient in the bedroom could be heard.

After a while.

A furry paw parted the screen of the dining room window.

This skillful clawing technique makes him look like a habitual criminal at first glance.

Wild cats are very common in this area.

Last year, someone tried to take care of it, but later they found that there were too many rats, so they let it go.

Then these wild cats reproduced rapidly, and the rats were eliminated a lot, but at the same time, they also caused some trouble to the residents here.

For example, some cunning wild cats can break into houses!

The wild cat that came in didn't look very strong, but every time it jumped it was extremely flexible and made very little noise. It was an excellent night hunter.

There is the smell of food on the dining table.

But the wild cat just sniffed it and looked away without interest.

It came here looking for the smell.

The delicious smell attracted it as it passed by the window.

The triangular nose quickly captured the smell in the air, and the upper lip was slightly raised. The cat's cleft lip sniffing response allows the vomeronasal organ to function.

where is it?

The wild cat sniffed around, and soon, its eyes flashed with excitement in the dark night, looking at a box on the cupboard.

The little python in the box sensed the danger outside and opened its mouth. This is a warning and a threat.

However, with its current size, it is difficult to intimidate adult wild cats.

Not to mention that the box is blocking the view and the wild cats cannot see it. Even if they can see it, the wild cats are not afraid.

The wild cat scratched the box body with its scratcher and bit the lid with its teeth.

The little python bit the wild cat several times, but was blocked by the box and only hit the box.

The wild cat stopped, moved its whiskers, and then bit the lid of the box.

I got impatient with the biting, so I used my paws to push it and squeezed it with my body, and successfully pushed the box off the cabinet.

Bang!

The lid is open.

The little python inside crawled out and quickly got into the pile of debris next to it.

When the driver came back, he checked the door lock first and found that no one had touched it.

When I entered the door and turned on the light, I saw the box containing the python fell to the ground and the lid was opened.

A wild cat squatted there.

The driver was so frightened that his hair almost exploded, and he rushed over to chase away the wild cat.

The wild cat fled from the window in panic.

The two people who followed him into the house frowned when they saw the sloppy living environment in the house.

"Where's the snake?" one person asked.

The driver picked up the empty box on the ground and said with a pale face, "It was still in there before."

The expressions of the two men suddenly changed.

"What do you mean?!"

Thinking about the wild cat found in the house just now, the two of them felt bad.

You won't be eaten, right?

The driver forced himself to calm down. He knew that if the snake was gone, his end would not be good.

"Wait! The wild cat was squatting here just now, which means the snake was not eaten!"

As the driver spoke, he knelt down to dig through the accumulated domestic garbage and roughly pushed the debris to both sides.

Sure enough, I soon saw a snake body hidden inside.

"Here it is!"

The two men directly pushed the driver aside.

Seeing the little snake burrowing in again, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Able to move, alive.

Compared with the driver's rude behavior just now, the people searching this time were much more careful, for fear of accidentally injuring the little python. After all, it's about how much they get paid.

One person goes to catch the snake, and the other person takes out the new box he is carrying to hold the snake.

The driver stood aside, his eyes chasing the other person's other black bag. Inside is his reward!

Swallowing, the driver forced himself to look away and calm down.

Then, I saw a wild cat wandering not far outside the window.

He walked to the window and tried to scare them away.

However, the wild cat not only did not leave, but also squatted down and stared here.

That gesture was full of a rogue temperament.

Looking up slightly, the driver noticed that there were several wild cats squatting nearby!

"There are too many cats squatting outside, why are they all staring here? Do they smell snakes?"

Wild cats in this area eat everything from moths to grasshoppers to small birds and snakes. Maybe they are really targeting the snakes in the house.

Are artificially fed snakes extra delicious?

He didn't know if that was the case, but the wild cats outside had to be driven away.

"It's too easy to attract attention. How can we get rid of the stray cats wandering outside without alerting others?" the driver said.

I saw one of them taking something out of his black backpack, holding the thing in his hand, quickly walked to the window, opened the window, and raised his arm to face the window.

Could it be that...

The driver's heart was beating fast and he was breathing carefully.

Step back quietly.

Then, as the person at the window moved, the driver saw clearly the object in his hand.

An infrared thermometer gun.

In other words, a handheld thermometer.

Laser dot with aiming.

driver:"……"

Outside the window, the crouching wild cat was instantly attracted by the moving red dot. It chased the red dot and ran to the residents across the street.

The driver looked away.

Inside the house, people rummaging through the debris finally dug out the little python.

The driver reminded: "This snake is very vicious! Don't get bitten!"

The man sneered slightly, obviously disdainful of the driver's statement.

Even if this little python bites me, what will happen?

Within half a minute, just as he was putting the snake into the box, his finger was bitten.

The driver's eyelids twitched suddenly.

Keeping his facial expression steady, the driver urged: "Okay, the goods are in your hands. After inspecting the goods, what should I get?"

One person threw the black bag in front of him.

"Take inventory?"

"No. We've got both money and goods, so let's just say goodbye!"

The driver opened it and glanced at the money inside, picked up the bag and ran out.

The two people who got the snake had no intention of staying here.

But before leaving, they saw the patient in the bedroom.

Smile mockingly.

It's not uncommon to settle matters with a partner in order to get a bigger share of the reward.

They didn't care much, it was their mission to get this little python. As long as they are not involved, they will not pay any extra attention.

After closing the door, they quickly left and exchanged the snake for reward.

When going out, the man who had been bitten by the python felt some burning pain in his fingers and his vision was momentarily blurred.

Shaking his head, he looked ahead again.

Ignore the burning pain, and as for the blurred vision, it's probably because I didn't get enough rest. I was suddenly notified to pick up the goods here, which was a bit of a rush.

Outside the house, the driver carrying a bag ran towards the parking space.

excited! Excited!

This money is all mine!

As for the one lying in the rental house and the other person who was bitten just now, never mind him!

There are no vacancies around and the parking place is a little far away.

Opening the door, he threw the black bag into the passenger seat. The driver got into the car, opened the door and was about to leave.

Bang!

One hand grasped the car door that was about to close.

The driver looked outside.

Through the car window, he saw a pointed chin.

See you tonight!
