Fear of food

Chapter 72 Meeting an Acquaintance
Outside Jinghai Medical College.

Dabing looked anxious as he paced back and forth outside his car, glancing down every now and then at Chen Qi, who seemed to be asleep in the passenger seat.

Coffee and the others also gathered around, their expressions somewhat grave.

Zhui Feng kept circling around in place: "It's been more than half an hour, and neither the person nor the dog has returned!"

"Something must have happened!"

Swill looked at Coffee and asked, "What do we do?"

Coffee was the most rational among them. He sighed and said, "The best way is to wait, of course, and contact the group leader to see if we can get some support. But can you wait?"

Just then, Dabing saw a stray dog ​​passing by on the roadside and had an idea.

He waved, and his animal affinity kicked in; the stray dog ​​wagged its tail and came over happily.

Big Pancake fed it a bite of ham sausage, then said, "I'll climb into the dog's body and take a look too."

Coffee frowned: "The cookies couldn't get out even after going in this way, so why are you delivering them the same way?"

Big Pancake thought Coffee had a point, and his eyes lit up: "I've got it! I can bring a few more dogs in! I'll direct the dogs to check the situation, and I won't go in myself."

The pancake ate the sausage in its hand, then possessed the stray dog ​​and rushed out.

Not long after, he came running back with three or four stray dogs behind him.

With a bark from Dabing, a pack of stray dogs stopped climbing over the wall and charged straight in through the front gate.

The security guard at this time is already asleep. There are gaps in the iron gate, and a small dog can easily squeeze through.

These stray dogs were all skin and bones, and they could pass through easily.

Coffee and the others watched helplessly as the dog possessed by the pancake ran away, and could only stay where they were, guarding the bodies of the pancake and Chen Qi.
-
In fantasy.

Despite the aches and pains all over his body, Chen Qi got up from the ground.

As Xia Huiyun smashed the door open, she rushed inside.

Entering the door offers hope of escaping the illusion, but also means facing Xia Huiyun.

But he had no choice. Chen Qi picked up the flashlight, patted it, and the light came back on. He then prepared to go inside.

Just then, a voice called out from behind: "Wait for us!"

Two people, who appeared to be officials, ran over quickly.

Chen Qi cut to the chase and asked, "Are you government officials?"

The two nodded, and one of them said, "Let us go first. Judging from your appearance, you should still be a college student. We have no reason to hide behind you at a time like this."

Another person explained, "Besides, you won't die here anyway."

Can't you die?

Chen Qi thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. These people were originally corpses in the illusion, and they kept waking up only to be killed again and again.

However, Chen Qi knew his own situation. He was different from these people. Just because others couldn't die didn't mean he couldn't.

So he nodded and handed the flashlight to one of them.

The two officials were about the same height and age, both young men under thirty.

However, one had a larger frame and fairer skin, while the other was leaner and had darker skin.

The two men led the way through the door, with Chen Qi following closely behind.

The beam of the flashlight shone through the door, allowing Chen Qi to see what was behind it.

The ideal scenario did not occur; they did not escape the illusion as soon as they entered the door.

Behind the door was a room much smaller than the laboratory. Although the end was not yet in sight, the ceiling height and width were significantly less than those of the laboratory, making it appear somewhat cramped.

The room was covered with vine-like veins and intestinal-like tissues on all four sides, including the ceiling.

These blood vessels and intestines, like ivy, covered the walls and ceiling, making it impossible for Chen Qi to see the original color of the walls anymore.

There are fewer of these vascular structures on the ground now, at least there are places to put your feet.

Chen Qi and the other two were on tenterhooks, because Xia Huiyun had disappeared without a trace after barging in; they couldn't find her or hear her anywhere.

The three of them had to use their flashlights to illuminate their surroundings with every step they took, fearing that the old nurse might suddenly appear from some corner.

"what is that!"

Of the two officials, the burly young man with the flashlight pointed to a spot.

Without him pointing it out, Chen Qi and his companion followed the beam of the flashlight and saw a "giant egg"!
A giant egg about 1.5 meters tall, which a normal adult male cannot hug with both hands.

However, the surface of this egg-shaped object did not have an eggshell, but a layer of fleshy membrane. On the surface of that fleshy membrane, blood vessels bulged and twisted like varicose veins, spreading all the way to connect with the blood vessels and intestines on the ground, forming a whole with the blood vessels and intestines that filled the entire room.

The dark-skinned youth took a deep breath and asked, "Is this an egg, or a giant tumor?"

The sturdy young man wondered, "If it's an egg, what's inside?"

Chen Qi's gaze sharpened: "Whatever it is, smash it open first!"

"Maybe breaking it open will allow us to escape the illusion!"

The two officials also felt that Chen Qi's words made sense, but still said, "Let's check for dangers here before taking action."

The three quickened their pace, scanning every corner with their flashlights, but they still couldn't find Xia Huiyun.

"Another one!"

The three hadn't gone far when they discovered another giant egg within the extreme range of their flashlights.

"Wait, there seems to be something on this egg!"

The three took a few steps closer, shone their flashlights on the object, and finally saw clearly...

"It looks like a human head!"

A human head grew on a giant meaty egg!

This bizarre scene made the three of them instinctively stop in their tracks, fearing that danger might be brewing.

This giant egg can even grow a head; who knows if it will attack?

Just then, Chen Qi frowned and said, "Show me that head again."

The muscular young man immediately shone the flashlight beam at his head.

"Get closer."

"Closer!"

Although the two officials were puzzled, they did as instructed.

However, when they turned to look at Chen Qi, they saw that he looked like he had seen a ghost, his eyes wide open, his face filled with shock and confusion.

"What's wrong with you?"

Chen Qi swallowed hard, his voice dry as he said, "I know him."

The two officials' eyes twitched slightly: "You know him? Who is he?"

"I don't know his name, but I killed him."

"You killed him?" Both officials looked wary.

One of them instinctively reached for his waist, but found nothing.

Chen Qi shook his head and explained, "Don't be nervous. He used to sell pork at the market. He's a parasite. You understand what I mean by parasite, right?"

The two nodded, their expressions relaxing somewhat, but the way they looked at Chen Qi still changed noticeably.

Being able to kill the parasite, regardless of the method, is quite impressive.

They no longer viewed Chen Qi simply as a "brave college student".

Of course, they subconsciously regarded the butcher as an ordinary "family-level" parasite and never dared to think of him as a "domain-level" parasite.

Chen Qi pondered, "Why are the parasites I killed here?"
