Aliens on Earth [Interstellar]

Ji Lin and Song Yao were successfully sent away from the scene, but Lu Sishui's operation was not so smooth, or it should be said that it was a serious failure.

After Ji Lin and Song Yao left, before they had time to arrange people to enter the restaurant to search and rescue the survivors, a monster rushed out of it first.When the two sides exchanged fire, Lu Sishui's special armed forces responded very quickly. In this state of being caught off guard, they still fired steadily and completed precise shooting at the target.

But - no use!Even with guns and bullets with strong penetrating power, they still couldn't penetrate the monster's scales.In a short confrontation, two armed police officers died and ten were injured, while the monster escaped from their encirclement unscathed.

That night, in the municipal public security conference room, the leaders of various departments of the police and military sat around the conference table, but the scene was deadly silent, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was almost impossible to breathe.

Regardless of whether they have been in contact with monsters before or have not, after this battle, their beliefs in the bottom of their hearts have been strongly challenged.There is not only one such monster, two appeared today, perhaps twenty, two hundred, or even a larger number will appear tomorrow.But in the face of such monsters, the guns in their hands could not hurt them in the slightest.As the country's violent machines, they are helpless, so what should ordinary people do?When encountering a man-eating beast, wouldn't he have to wait to die with his eyes open?

I don't know how long the silence lasted, Lu Sishui took the lead in clearing up his emotions, and opened his mouth to break the dead silence.

"I have two pieces of news to tell everyone here. First, not only did two man-eaters appear in our H city today, but there are also three different cities, and it is confirmed that there are traces of man-eaters."

The faces of everyone in the meeting room were a little ugly again.

"Second, the higher-level document has been officially issued. Due to the escalation of the scope of the disaster, General Nie will take over the overall command of the operation against man-eating beasts, and I will stay in City H and be responsible for the dispatch of City H. In addition, compared to Traces of man-eating beasts in other cities appeared in the suburbs, but City H appeared directly in the urban area, and the impact of the disaster was great, so a special team was dispatched from above."

The first news was terrible, but the second news was finally good news, which revealed a few rays of light in the darkness that destroyed people's hearts.

"Since General Nie took over the command, it means that the higher authorities have fully understood the seriousness of the disaster, so can we apply for the use of large-scale weapons?" Someone asked.

"I will report it to the higher authorities, but the man-eaters in our city H appear in densely populated urban areas. Even if the use of large-scale weapons is approved, it is impossible to use them in the urban area." Lu Sishui said, "The man-eaters The corpse has been sent to the research institute in City S, and the country has sent researchers to carry out cooperative research. At the same time, special weapons against man-eating beasts will be developed. I hope everyone will not give up hope before that. If we all choose to give up, There will only be more people who die that way. Man-eaters can be killed, and the corpses of man-eaters found in the alley two days ago and in the restaurant box today are the best proof."

"The man-eating beast in the alley, judging from the surveillance, was definitely killed by the long-haired man. Who killed the man-eating beast corpse in the restaurant box today?" the captain of the armed police team asked.

"We checked the fatal wound of the man-eating beast..." the forensic doctor who was in charge of examining the man-eating monster said, "It's the same as the last one, it was pierced through the head, the same wound, the same method, no accident It must have been done by the same person."

"It's still that long-haired man?" The captain of the Armed Police Force lifted his spirits, and turned his attention to the director of the Public Security Bureau. "Director Liu, have the restaurant and the surveillance cameras near the restaurant been dialed up? Did you get any pictures of that man?"

Director Liu shook his head, "In order to respect the privacy of the guests, the private rooms in the restaurant are not equipped with surveillance cameras, and the surveillance cameras in other places did not capture the man."

The captain of the armed police showed a disappointed expression.

"However—" Director Liu hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "The surveillance camera in the corridor captured two people running out of the box where we found the corpse of the man-eating beast."

Lu Sishui seemed to think of something, and hurriedly asked: "Which two people?"

Director Liu greeted a police officer and projected the surveillance image on the projector. It was Ji Lin and Song Yao that Lu Sishui met at the restaurant entrance.At that time, he didn't have time to ask these two people in detail, so he asked Xiao Chu to send them away.The two men were obviously not the long-haired man captured by the surveillance cameras near the alley, but they ran out of the box at the moment the man-eater rushed into the box, and they were not captured by the surveillance afterwards. Someone entered that box, and finally the body of the ogre was found in that box, so the person who killed the ogre was probably in the box before they came out, that is to say——these two people were very close Might have seen the man who killed the ogre.

Lu Sishui turned his gaze to Xiao Chu.

"I sent these two people to the police station to make oral records, and then sent them back." Xiao Chuhui reported.

The eyes of all the people present turned to the director of the police station, and the director immediately felt pressured.However, he was prepared today and brought the subordinates who were in charge of the transcripts. He immediately turned to look at the little policeman sitting next to him.

"This, these two people - the one on the left is called Song Yao, the second son of the Song Group, who just came back from abroad the day before yesterday, and the one on the right is called Ji Lin, who came from an orphanage. He and Song Yao are college classmates and graduated from S University. , used to work in a research institute in S City..."

"These are not important. The important thing is whether you have asked these two people if they have seen a man with long hair!" Director Liu interrupted the policeman's long-winded report.

"No, no..."

Director Liu: "..."

The little policeman glanced at Director Liu who had a bad face, "However, this is the second time that Ji Lin encountered a man-eating monster. He was also at the scene in the alley before."

Director Liu: "Why is this person so unlucky?"

"...This person not only met the man-eating beast twice, but also the man with long hair appeared twice, so he probably saw the man with long hair." Lu Sishui brought back the topic that Director Liu missed. .

"In short, we'd better ask Ji Lin again, and see if we can get any clues to find the man with long hair from him." The armed police captain concluded.

"I'll ask in person tomorrow." Lu Sishui pondered for a moment and said, "Also, the situation is urgent. We'd better put the matter of finding a man with long hair on the surface, let the media release the news, and mobilize the public to pay attention."

"I'll tell them." Director Liu said.

……

Song Yao woke up from the dream and sat up suddenly. In the dimly lit room, his mind was empty for half a minute before he realized that he slept in Ji Lin's rented room last night and shared a bed with Ji Lin.Encountering the kind of monster that can only be seen in movies yesterday made him feel very insecure in the big hotel room, and such a crowded and narrow environment can calm his frightened little heart.

Song Yao lowered his head and looked at his body, it was intact, half eaten by monsters, it was just a dream.

After exhaling for a long time, Song Yao turned his head to look at the other side of the bed. Ji Lin was lying on his side with his back to him, breathing evenly, apparently still in a deep sleep.Picking up the phone next to the bed and looking at it, it was only a little after 5 o'clock. He remembered that Ji Lin was on the night shift today, so there was no need to wake up so early, so he didn't wake Ji Lin up, and walked out of the room on tiptoe with his phone in hand.

Song Yao opened the bedroom door, and the bathroom door next door also opened.

Song Yao stood in a daze at the door of the bedroom: "..."

Standing at the door of the bathroom with a dry towel in its mouth, the black cat with wet fur: "..."

"Fuck, fuck! Ji Lin, I saw your cat take a bath by itself, and then come out with a towel in its mouth!" Song Yao was so shocked by the black cat's behavior that he forgot that he was thinking not to make a noise just now. After waking up Ji Lin, he turned around and shouted at Ji Lin who was in the bedroom.

The black cat glanced at the yelling Song Yao in disgust, jumped onto the sofa with a dry towel in its mouth, and rubbed the water droplets from its fur onto the dry towel.

"Ji Lin, come and see! Your cat has become a spirit, and it's actually brushing itself!" Song Yao yelled again.

After being yelled twice by Song Yao, no matter how deep a sleeper is, it's time to wake up.Ji Lin sat up from the bed and rubbed his temples. He didn't sleep well last night and had a headache.

Ji Lin came out of the bedroom to look, and sure enough, he saw the black cat squatting on the sofa with a towel in his arms, and Song Yao was circling around it, being baptized by the black cat's disgusted eyes from time to time.

I'm back... Ji Lin heaved a sigh of relief, his heart fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a smile spread to his eyes.

Although he had only kept the black cat for less than a week, and his temper was still very bad, but thinking about the situation yesterday, the black cat might never be found again, and he felt as if he was being pulled.Regarding the loss of something, whether it is voluntary or taken away, he has long learned to cut off all nostalgia and obsessions after losing, because such emotions are of no benefit other than making himself uncomfortable. Learned in the orphanage.No matter how sad, no one will feel bad, so I can only protect myself, so I learned to let go of obsessions and nostalgia, and make myself feel better.How many years has he not felt this feeling as if his heart was being pulled...

The black cat felt the sight on him, and turned his head to look at Ji Lin. Although he was slightly taken aback, it was the first time he saw such a light and innocent smile on Ji Lin's face.

But—why did the female look at him and smile?Is there something wrong with him?Is the hair curled up?With that in mind, the black cat raised its paws and began to tidy up the messy fur it had rubbed on the towel.

And when the black cat was busy lowering its head and arranging its appearance, Ji Lin walked up to him and raised his hand to touch his head.

The black cat looked up at Ji Lin, the hair on his head was messed up?But even if it's messed up, as a well-bred female, she shouldn't touch the male casually!Therefore, Ji Lin didn't touch it the second time. The black cat took out its signature move and slapped his hand away with its claws.

The disgusting refusal of the black cat didn't affect Ji Lin's good mood, or it made him feel better instead.

"Welcome back."

After speaking, Ji Lin went to prepare cat food for the black cat, and put it on the dining table as usual, and the black cat jumped onto the table lightly and began to eat.

"I'll buy you beef tomorrow." Ji Lin remembered the black cat eating beef with gusto in a restaurant, so he promised it.

The black cat shook its ears. Naturally, it didn't understand Ji Lin's words, but chewing the cat food reminded him of the boiled meat that he ate yesterday. Although it was tasteless, boiled meat was obviously better!Thinking of this, he felt a little angry again, it was all because of that Asi beast, he didn't finish the two plates of boiled meat!Moreover, one of the two Asi beasts that interrupted his meal ran away...

"By the way, this cat is used to eating on the table! I said why it ate so naturally on the table yesterday." Song Yao looked at the black cat, and said to Ji Lin who was looking through the ingredients for breakfast in the refrigerator.

"It's not what I'm used to. When it first arrived, it insisted on being served on the table."

"Huh? What about taking a bath by yourself? You didn't teach me?" Song Yao asked again.

"No."

"That's amazing, my little black brother." Song Yao exclaimed, "Couldn't it use the flush toilet to go to the toilet, and then flush itself?"

Ji Lin: "..." Speaking of which, the cat toilet in the bathroom does not show signs of being used...

When Ji Lin finished his breakfast and brought it to the table, Song Yao was watching TV, and the news broadcast on the TV was the monster attack on Taidou Restaurant yesterday.

It has been kept secret before, because the man-eating monster has not yet caused a large-scale disaster, so there is no need to cause everyone to panic.But yesterday the incident happened in the urban area, there were so many witnesses, it was impossible to conceal it, and now it is already foreseeable that the man-eating beast will bring about a lot of disasters. Perhaps this report will still cause panic, but it is a warning. necessary.

"Yesterday at 10:36 in the morning, Chengdong Taidou Restaurant was attacked by a monster. The police called it a man-eating monster. As the name suggests, this monster eats people..."

"It has been confirmed that 3 employees of Taidou Restaurant were injured and 8 died; pedestrians on the road, 5 people died and many were injured; the armed police officers and soldiers who had a direct conflict with the man-eater killed 2 people and injured 10 people..."

"There were two man-eating beasts that attacked Taidou Restaurant yesterday. One was shot dead in the restaurant box, and the other escaped from the scene. The following are the man-eating beasts on the surveillance camera. The general public is requested to inform them in time if they see such creatures. Police, get away quickly..."
