Chapter 7 Bugs
"Mom, I'm back."

When Wang Hai returned home, he put on his slippers, and lay lazily on the sofa, leaving his schoolbag beside him casually.

Turn on the TV, and it happens to be broadcasting the news broadcast right now.

When he was really 17 years old, he was still chasing anime, watching hot blood series, and watching high-burning action movies.

But maybe when he reaches a certain age, his preferences will change. Now he prefers to watch news programs.

"According to the reporter in front, the heavy fog pervading Jinhai City has not dissipated yet, and the fog has begun to become heavier and darker, seriously affecting travel. Private cars and electric vehicles have been completely banned from the road in the city. Now, let's listen to the weather Professor Zhang, what do you think of the current heavy fog in Jinhai City, and what causes it?"

"The heavy fog in Jinhai City is a rare natural phenomenon. According to my experience, the fog may change to a certain extent and it will be difficult to dissipate in a short period of time. It is recommended that all residents of Jinhai City take precautions. Close the doors and windows, do not go out unless necessary, and wear a mask when going out..."

"Dense fog." Wang Hai muttered to himself, and began to search for information about Jinhai City in his mind.

Jinhai City is not a first-tier big city, but an ordinary prefecture-level city with a population of only a few hundred thousand.

Judging from the scale of Jinhai City, it is obviously impossible to achieve the level of smog like the "Foggy City".

In his memory, many demons appeared, accompanied by visions.

Strong wind, heavy rain, fire, and heavy fog may all be signs of the appearance of demons.

Combined with the flower demon Meiling he met on the road, Wang Hai frowned.

"Sure enough, there were monsters before the Era of Crisis. Could the fog in Jinhai City be caused by monsters?"

Wang Hai's gaze was a bit dignified. If it was a monster that could affect a city, its strength would be far from what he can contend with now.

The time came to eight o'clock in the evening.

It has been a while since Wang Hai came back, but his mother Zhao Hui has not come back yet.

This is unprecedented.

"Mom?" Wang Hai called again, and searched every room.

When he came to the kitchen, he found that the kitchen knife was not on the knife holder, there was water on the side of the sink, and there were shoe prints on the floor tiles in the kitchen.

This is the trace of use, which means that mother came back at night and used the kitchen.

Because Zhao Hui would clean up the kitchen after each meal, and would never leave it until the next day.

"He's back, but he's not there, where did he go?" Wang Hai thought carefully, and suddenly opened his eyes, "Could it be!"

A terrifying idea was born in Wang Hai's mind suddenly, which made him confused, and hurriedly dialed his mother's number from the landline in the living room.

But no one answered the phone.

Called several times in a row, but no one answered.

"Don't, don't..." Wang Hai's eyes turned red, and sadness and anger kept spreading in his heart.

He rushed to the monitoring room of the community and retrieved the surveillance video of this afternoon.

The video shows that Zhao Hui passed the gate of the community and entered the unit building at around five o'clock in the evening.

But at six o'clock, he hurried out again.

With a vegetable basket in her hand, she ran all the way as if in a hurry.

Wang Hai squinted and stared at the vegetable basket, his intuition told him that there was something in it, something very important.

But because the surveillance images are not clear enough, at this distance, people's faces can only be barely recognized, and it is impossible to see clearly what is in the vegetable basket.

"My mother is carrying a vegetable basket, which means she just came back from buying vegetables, but she went out again with a vegetable basket... Is it because she bought the wrong thing, or did she forget something? Then, her destination should be the supermarket. She Used to buy groceries there. Supermarket...”

Wang Hai thought of the illusion of the flower demon and ghost that he had played before, thinking that he had arrived at the supermarket, but he was led to the Beipo cemetery.

Could it be that the mother was also lured away by the monster?

Wang Hai was very anxious and was about to rush out when he heard a familiar voice.

"Old Liu, I can't find my Xiaohai, can you adjust the surveillance for me?"

The figure of Zhao Hui walked into the duty room, seeing her, Wang Hai's hanging heart finally let go.

"mom."

"Xiao Hai?" Zhao Hui was also taken aback, "Why are you here?"

"I couldn't find you when I got home, and no one answered my calls. I thought something happened to you."

Zhao Hui was startled, took out her cell phone from her bag, patted her forehead, and said, "Oh, why did the cell phone become silent? It's my mother's fault. It's because my mother didn't pay attention. Let's go, let's go home." The security guard in the room smiled, "Thank you, Lao Liu, let's go first."

"Mom, didn't you come back, why did you go out again?"

"Hey, don't mention it. I met a profiteer when I bought pork today. He told me it was wild pork. I didn't pay attention to it when I bought it. When I took it home, I saw that there were bugs in it. I took it back and he returned it. No, I said there were bugs, but he actually ate them in front of my face."

"It's disgusting..."

"It can be said that I just wanted to return the meat, but when I met such a person, is your mother easy to bully? I called the police at that time. When the police came, the stall owner was considered cowardly. The money was returned."

"Mom, you are really amazing." Wang Hai chuckled and held out a thumb.

"Hey, that's where I'm going. I'm in a hurry to come back and cook. Otherwise, I'll complain to the Industrial and Commercial Association and the Consumers' Association. Not only will he be fined, but he will also have to suspend his business for rectification. Oh, I'm just tossing about this, and I forgot to buy the meat." , Zhao Hui turned around and was about to leave.

"Mom, if you don't buy it, don't buy it. It's good to be vegetarian."

"How about that? When you are growing up, you must have a meat dish and a vegetarian dish..."

Because of the tossing and turning, it was already ten o'clock at night after they finished their dinner. Under the instruction of his mother, Wang Hai washed and lay down on the bed.

Outside, I can still hear the sound of my mother washing the dishes.

He put his hands under his neck and stared blankly at the ceiling.

The moonlight comes in and is reflected by the ceiling, forming a tree-like light and shadow on the ceiling.

"Although it was a false alarm, it still reminded me that I must be more vigilant. This time, nothing will happen."

······
"Hmph, what happened? What happened? My fifth child has never been afraid of anything in his life!"

In a room in the DC area, a man slapped the table angrily and shouted.

"What are you arguing about? If you have a big temper, I told you not to accept that wild boar. You won't listen. Come on, it's broken, it's got worms, it's in your hands." Next to him, his wife sat down slowly, counting fall on him.

"Okay, don't worry about it. The wild boar has only been bought for a few days and has been kept in the freezer. How could there be bugs? It must be that woman who tricked me. If I let me see her again..."

"Okay, okay, it's almost done, what are you pretending to do with me. Let me tell you, be more vigilant in the future, if there is a problem with the meat, it will be replaced by others. That is to say, she reported to the police today. If she reports to the industry and commerce Come to the Consumers Association, let's eat dirt for the next two months. Let me tell you, your temper..."

"Come on, are you annoying? I've been nagging all day, nagging, my ears are callused." The man stood up impatiently, and walked to the bedroom, "Sleep!"

Silent night.

The only sound in the room was the man's snoring.

The woman was sitting on the bed, unbuttoning her sweater by the dim light.

But she didn't notice that under the quilt, the man's belly wriggled strangely, as if something was about to come out of it!
