Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 234 Special Value

Thump, thump thump...

Gunshots rang out outside the window, and the police officers in the villa fell to the ground one after another, shot dead. In the blink of an eye, all the police officers were dead, leaving only the immobilized Ryan alive.

He turned his head mechanically like a puppet, staring in horror at the figure outside the window.

who is it?

The fat man's mind was in turmoil: This person killed everyone else but spared him. What untrustworthy purpose did he have?

Ou Yang didn't rush into the house. Instead, he immediately fired a shot, blowing the heads off all the officers before he jumped into the house, supporting himself on his arms.

Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, it was as if a dye shop had been opened on Ryan's face, first turning from white to red, and then from red to black.

His eyes held a mixture of apprehension and fear, but even more so, disbelief.

How dare this Easterner come back? He's incredibly audacious!
Ignoring Ryan's shock, Ouyang grinned and said, "Surprised? Unexpected?"

He realized something was wrong as soon as he said it. Given his usual personality, he would never say something so outrageous. He must have been influenced by the spores to do something so unusual.

That's right, that's it!
Renn's anger was almost overflowing from his eyes, as if he wanted to devour Ouyang whole, and he mumbled incoherent curses.

Ouyang couldn't hear what he was cursing at all, and didn't take it to heart at all.

Looking at Ryan's miserable state, he felt no sympathy, but rather a sense of amusement: "You're quite dedicated, aren't you? You're in this terrible state, yet you're still giving orders. What? Is there no one else in the police force besides you?"

Ouyang was particularly curious as to why the police officers didn't take Ryan to the hospital for treatment after rescuing him.

Kamed is not a large city, but it is not small either. Even without a second hospital, it should have several clinics.
Besides, only the hospital was destroyed, not all the doctors died.

Little did Ouyang know that it wasn't that the officers didn't want to take him, but rather that Ryan refused to leave.

This guy is extremely power-hungry. He would rather endure the pain than relinquish command to anyone else.

Its size is also peculiar.

Ouyang pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Renn, suddenly feeling a sense of the wonder of the world.

This was the third time the two had met, and the first time they had sat face to face. Given their current relationship, it could be described as a battle of kings.

One was completely unharmed and had explosive combat power; the other had all four limbs severed and would spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

Enraged, Renn roared incoherently, "Come on, kill me! Beat me to death! Come on!"

Ouyang looked at him as if he were a comical clown and said leisurely, "I've come to settle some scores with you."

He leaned forward, his smile fading, and said, "Tell me, why are you targeting me?"

Ryan paused for a moment, then grinned, revealing his toothless, chubby mouth, and laughed wildly: "Who do you think you are? Why should I tell you?"

Ou Yang scratched his forehead in exasperation: "Just tell me already, it'll save me trouble and you'll be more efficient!"

Renn's eyes were mocking. "Hahaha, wishful thinking!"

Ou Yang sighed. This matter was a bit troublesome, but not unsolvable.

He waited patiently for a while, and gradually smelled the spores in his nose. He immediately stared into Ryan's eyes: "Why are you targeting me?"

Raine remained silent, glancing away with disdain.

Ou Yangshuang waited for a while: "Why do you insist on letting me into the manor?"

Ryan simply closed his eyes: "Don't waste your breath, I'm not telling you!"

This guy is really stubborn!

Ouyang waited until the smell of the spores became even stronger before asking again, "Why are you targeting me?"

This time, Ryan didn't refuse outright, but instead showed a look of struggle and hesitation.

Ou Yang's eyes lit up. There's a chance!
He immediately circled behind Renn, and like an old charlatan, asked in a seductive low voice, "Renn... Renn... why are you targeting Easterners?"

"An Easterner?" Raine, whose consciousness was drifting after inhaling a small amount of hallucinogen, repeated unconsciously.

Perhaps because of the analgesic effect of cyclophosphamide, Ryan's pronunciation became much clearer.

“Yes, an Asian!” Ouyang quickly added, “What do you want him to do?”

Raine's voice was ethereal: "I want, I want him to come into the manor..."

What are we doing in the manor?

"Take a picture of him at the manor."

Ou Yang frowned. Why does this guy only answer one question at a time? Can't he just explain it all at once?
Spores are not truth serums. Inhaling a small amount can have a numbing effect, but continued inhalation will only produce various hallucinations. He had to hurry and find out the truth before he overdosed.

What's the point of taking pictures of him?

"Let the Orientals kill old Jason."

"and then?"

"Capture him, negotiate with the East Asian embassy, ​​and exchange benefits."

What the hell?
Ou Yang was completely dumbfounded. He never expected that the other party's purpose was this!
The question is, although he has some special qualities, how did Ryan know about them?
Ou Yang couldn't help but feel worried and immediately asked repeatedly.

The smell of spores was getting stronger, and he didn't have much time left!
As Renn's paralysis deepened, he became incredibly open and honest, revealing everything he knew. Ouyang quickly learned the whole truth from him.

According to Rennes, although there are many Easterners in the United States, they are still divided into different classes.

Those who have already become citizens are the most useless, having absolutely no value.

He was still just an ordinary student from Tokyo University, nothing special.

But it's different for Easterners with diplomatic status; their special status makes their every move attract a lot of attention.

There's no way around it; Tokyo University is the world's largest exporter, ranking first in terms of quantity, output, and product categories.

The United States, deeply mired in the pandemic, has been able to persevere in its fight against the virus thanks to the unwavering support of Dongda University.

Although the Miguel Palace failed to stop the spread of the epidemic, its demand for various supplies never decreased.

The University of Tokyo's embassy held the power to allocate all aid supplies!
In name, the power to allocate resources rests with the US government, but as the pandemic has progressed, the government's control over the entire country has weakened. Many states have long since stopped obeying orders and are no longer following directives. Although it is still called a country, it has in reality broken away from the US.

All that's left is a title.

Every state with some influence maintained close contact with the East Asian embassy, ​​trying every means to bring back more supplies.

Mule Prefecture was no exception.

With the embassy's approval, Kamed could receive preferential treatment in terms of supplies.

For both the University of Tokyo and the United States, this amount of supplies was a drop in the ocean, but for Kamed, it was a godsend, a windfall.

Upon hearing this, Ou Yang was furious and wished he could immediately shoot that bastard, Renn.

It's one thing to have designs on him, but to actually try to swindle aid supplies?

Is that guy even human?
Ryan was also getting into the swing of things and proactively revealed his next plan. According to Ouyang, it was simply a matter of seizing the evidence that Ouyang had killed old Jason, then contacting the embassy and saying that Ouyang had killed so-and-so and violated such-and-such law. They offered to help cover it up if the terms were agreed upon.

But Ryan was much smarter than expected. Instead of contacting the embassy, ​​he took the initiative to help cover it up and never mentioned the supplies.

They even used their connections to try and get Ouyang sent back to the embassy.

In accordance with Eastern customs, people will always reciprocate kindness; the less they say it out loud, the greater the reward they will receive.

……

Ou Yang was internally ranting and raving, wanting to say a million curses.

That fatso is a real talent!

The smell of spores grew stronger, Raine's voice grew lower, and his irritability became increasingly apparent.

Ouyang had gotten the answer he wanted and was about to deal with the fat man when a squeaking rat suddenly darted out from the corner.

This little thing was surprisingly fast, heading straight for Ouyang.

Ouyang kicked the stubborn rat away, not taking the little incident to heart.

But as soon as he turned around, even more rats swarmed out, squealing and rampaging.

Ou Yang was startled and almost developed trypophobia.

He leaped onto the table, avoiding the swarm of rats.

Hundreds of rats swarmed in, some pouncing on the dead corpses, others on Renn, tearing, biting, and squealing.

The surging swarm of rats sent chills down Ouyang's spine.

What's going on? Spores shouldn't have any effect on rodents, otherwise rodent populations would have emerged long ago among brown bears, snow bears, and other places, instead of waiting until today.

Ouyang was fully conscious and knew exactly what had happened.

But Raine was completely lost in the illusion, and he didn't know what the rat was. He actually waved his arm, which was barely holding the broken bone in place, grabbed a rat and put it in his mouth. He chewed it with his remaining teeth, hair and blood, his mouth full of blood. With each chew, the rat would squeak and squeal in his mouth.

They had a pretty good appetite, eating one after another.

Ouyang was completely out of sorts; nothing about him felt right.

What kind of illusion has this guy fallen into? It's way too extreme!
Suddenly, fierce barking dogs and screams of pain came from outside the window.

Ou Yang turned and leaped out of the window. The moment he landed, he immediately looked down at his feet. He breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see the rats and quickly closed the doors and windows of the villa.

Let Ryan and his friends hurt each other!

Looking in the direction the sound came from, just a few dozen meters away, a police dog pounced on a police officer, biting his neck tightly and refusing to let go.

Without a second thought, Ou Yang shot the police dog in the head.

Although he had some grudges against the police, he couldn't help but intervene when he saw a police dog biting someone.

Ouyang was even more horrified.

First rats, then police dogs—is this a mutation of Pneumocystis pneumonia, causing it to infect various animals other than humans?

The mutated spores are known to have an effect on mice and dogs, but what about other mammals? Birds? Other kinds of animals?

Is this a sign of fully embracing the T-virus?

Not knowing what would happen next, Ouyang didn't dare linger and immediately turned his attention to the two armored vehicles on the lawn.

This thing is much safer than other types of vehicles. I've never had the chance to see it before, but now that it's right in front of me, I definitely can't miss it!
The police armored vehicles are much smaller than the military models, more like extended versions of large off-road vehicles; one has four doors and the other only has two doors on the left and right.

Ouyang immediately took a liking to the four-door version. He originally wanted to check if there were any usable supplies in the two-door version and planned to loot it again, but he unexpectedly discovered that the rear compartment of the two-door version was particularly spacious, with two rows of seats on the left and right that could be used as a bed.

We can even make use of the aisle; three people can sleep there without any problem!
The interior space of the four-door version is not small, but it is much less than that of the two-door version.

Ouyang immediately switched his affections and jumped into the four-door armored vehicle to loot it.

To be fair, the police armored vehicle was well-equipped with a number of good items: four rifles, six submachine guns, two shotguns, and their ammunition. There was also an M249 rifle on the roof.

The double-door version has fewer firearms, but more medical kits, stretchers, and oxygen tanks, making it seem like an armored ambulance!
Ouyang was both surprised and delighted. "This is great! This is great!"

There is no vehicle more suitable than this one!

He only needed enough firearms and didn't take any more than necessary, but he did take several boxes of ammunition. He wouldn't dare say more, but he had at least several thousand rounds.

They didn't even spare the machine gun. When they got their hands on it, they found it was a three-feed version. Even without a belt, they could make do with a magazine.

After completing the move as quickly as possible, Ouyang sat in the driver's seat, adjusted the seat, and started the engine. The deep roar was full of power.

Ouyang was overjoyed, but he had never been in contact with an armored vehicle before. He wanted to turn on the headlights, but accidentally touched a switch, and the police lights on the roof suddenly lit up, and the piercing siren sounded far away.

He quickly turned off the siren and then grimaced for a while.

This thing is too complicated. Don't touch those switches and buttons whose functions are unclear for now. We can study them slowly in a safe place later!
He didn't even turn on the headlights; he simply put the night vision goggles on his head, gently pressed the accelerator, and the armored vehicle started smoothly.

Despite its seemingly bulky appearance, the armored vehicle is much easier to drive than expected, and surprisingly, this behemoth is even automatic, which is quite a pleasant surprise.

The only drawback is that the windows are a bit small, resulting in a relatively narrow field of vision.

However, the minor flaws are minor and can be easily overcome!

Once Ouyang identified the direction, he drove the armored vehicle to avoid the area of ​​firefight and headed south.

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other hand taking out his phone, he first let everyone know he was safe, and then immediately called Luo Hui.

The call connected, and Luo Hui's tired voice came through the receiver: "Ouyang? Are you alright?"

"So far, things are going well." Ouyang didn't have time for pleasantries and went straight to the point, "I've made some unusual discoveries!"

"Go on!" Luo Hui roused himself and immediately prepared to take notes.

Ouyang recounted how the rats and police dogs were affected by the spores, and Luo Hui's lingering sleepiness vanished instantly: "Are you sure?"

"I saw it with my own eyes!" Ou Yang said confidently, without the slightest doubt, and unaware that he had made a blunder.

"Understood, I'll report it right now!" Luo Hui said.

"Wait a minute!" Ou Yang quickly called out, "If a similar situation occurs elsewhere, don't forget to let me know!"

Don't worry, I'll let you know as soon as I have any news!

After the call ended, Ou Yang let out a soft sigh of relief, beginning to worry about whether the mutated pneumothorax bacteria would infect immune individuals.

Just as he was distracted in thought, a burning car suddenly rushed out from the side and crashed into the side of the armored vehicle with a loud bang.

your sister!
Ouyang was furious and stepped on the gas to speed away.

Theory is useless in this situation; it's impossible to reason with someone like this. The only option is to run as far away as possible!
