Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Brothers, how exciting!

With Zhang Xiaohu’s right hand returning, there wasn’t just the crude fishing rod he had fashioned himself.

There was also a black, writhing mass, one end of which was still hanging midair and twisting slowly.

That thing was tightly attached to his wrist.

But because it was so large and long, not only did it cover half of Zhang Xiaohu’s hand, a large part of it was still exposed.

Just as Jiang Yan was about to enter the fire escape, she saw this scene, her pupils contracting as her footsteps abruptly halted.

That was an even larger-sized leech.

When a leech first attaches to human skin, there is no pain felt, only a tickling sensation.

However, that was before leeches had mutated.

Now, with this leech being so large and covering a significant area of his skin, not to ntion the weight and the distinct feeling of it hanging down, it was obvious.

Zhang Xiaohu should have been aware of it.

Unless he was afraid of his mother’s scolding and thus didn’t dare to look back to see what the weight on his hand was.

The woman obviously saw it too, and she let out a sharp and ghostly shriek, “My God!”

“Smack!”

Another slap rained down on Zhang Xiaohu’s face!

The woman, with a mournful and violent air, berated, “What the hell are you holding in your hand now?! Please, can you give so peace of mind?!

If this goes on, sooner or later you and your father are going to drive insane!!! Do you only feel happy by tornting to death?!!”

“…” This bizarre scene left Jiang Yan speechless and wide-eyed:

“Big sister, your son has been bitten by a bloodsucking leech, shouldn’t you be getting the leech off him first?”

When she accidentally broke a bowl or fell while walking as a child, her parents also had angry expressions.

They almost always scolded her for not holding things steadily or for not watching where she was going and tearing her pants, never once asking if she had cut her hand or hurt herself from the fall.

But her parents actually did cherish her deeply, and it was also a simpler and rougher way of parenting back in those days.

She never expected that more than a decade later, this person would be the sa.

“I am disciplining my child, what does it have to do with you?!! When you reach my age and live a life full of chaos, you’ll be even worse than !!”

The woman glared fiercely at Jiang Yan, then her pupils constricted as she realized what the black, slimy creature was:

“A leech??”

She reflexively stretched out her hand to pull at the leech.

“Don’t pull!”

Before Jiang Yan could finish her words, the woman had already yanked on it.

“Ow!!”

Zhang Xiaohu’s body contracted, his face crumpled into a ball as he let out an agonizing scream, a small patch of skin being torn straight off his wrist.

Blood oozed out like a mass of densely packed pinpricks.

But the leech still clung steadfastly to his hand, unaffected, and the blood plasma oozing from his arm seed to excite it, making its body twist even faster.

“Don’t yank it hard! That’s a leech, slap it! Slap it hard!!”

Jiang Yan quickly rembered the thods of the farrs and hurriedly advised.

Leeches have strong suction cups on their bodies that only release when they’re slapped and beco irritated.

Now that the leech had mutated, she wasn’t sure if this sa old-fashioned thod would still work.

The woman hesitated for a mont, then “smack!” she slapped her hand down hard on the body of the leech.

This “hit the cow from a distance” strength made Zhang Xiaohu, who was already injured, feel even more pain.

But the leech dropped to the ground with a “plop.”

It slled the blood and wriggled its body, crawling towards Zhang Xiaohu’s foot.

Too late to realize what was happening, Zhang Xiaohu threw down his homade fishing rod and hopped back ho on trembling feet.

“Zhang Xiaohu! If I don’t break your legs today, my last na isn’t cow! See if you run around again!!!”

In the midst of her palpable fear, the middle-aged woman picked up the stick with the fishing line tied to it and dashed into the house, brandishing it.

The house soon was filled with the sound of a child’s painful cries and the woman’s angry scolding.

Jiang Yan’s brows furrowed slightly as she glanced at the leech still squirming in the corridor and suddenly rembered that alcohol could also kill a leech.

But these leeches had mutated, and she wasn’t sure if it would still be effective.

She quickly pulled out a 500-milliliter glass bottle of alcohol from her backpack, in reality from the Space, and, fighting back her inner fear, walked towards the leech.

“Creak,” the door of apartnt 1604 opened even wider.

A man with ssy hair clumped like a bird’s nest and a rugged beard, limping and leaning on a stick, stepped out.

He had old clothes ripped into strips tied around his leg, and freshly seeping traces of blood, indicating a recent injury.

“This was found by ! In front of our door, it’s ours!”

He glared fiercely at Jiang Yan, swinging the stick in his hand and stabbing it into the leech.

“Pia ji!” A pale-red thick juice sprayed out from the leech’s body.

“…” Jiang Yan’s pupils shrank, and she instinctively stepped back.

The leech twisted in pain and started writhing madly.

Unfazed, the man pulled out a crumpled plastic bag from his pocket and used the stick in his hand to gingerly push the leech into the bag.

Supporting himself with the stick, he slowly crouched down, skillfully tied the bag tight, and with a “bang,” threw it into the house.

Under Jiang Yan’s incredulous gaze, the man picked himself up, returned to the window with his cane, and stuck his head out.

He quickly turned around to address Jiang Yan:

“Girl, these leeches were discovered by my son after he maid his hand for it. If you dare tell anyone else in this building about it, I’ll make you regret it!”

“Heh! I live just as many lives as you, just co and try!” Jiang Yan said coldly, not deigning to argue any further with such a person. She turned and headed upstairs.

Clearly, the man was planning on using these mutated leeches as food.

Which sounded sowhat unimaginable.

However, during tis of famine, there were people who ate leaves, bark, and even “buddha’s soil” to fill their stomachs.

What’s more, this was fresh, high-protein food delivered right to their doorstep.

She feared leeches, but that didn’t an others did too.

If these leeches were dealt with by him, it could actually reduce her troubles substantially.

Thinking this, Jiang Yan felt much lighter.

At this mont, having confird there was no one around, she directly willed the flashlight from the Space and illuminated the dark corridor, taking quick strides towards the upper floors.

When she reached the 19th floor, she heard the sounds of a man and a woman engaged in unspeakable acts coming from behind the fire escape door.

They must have been on the floor of the hallway, and the noises were not faint.

Jiang Yan twisted her brows. In broad daylight…

Just as she was about to continue upwards, she heard heavy and disordered footsteps coming towards the direction of the fire escape.

“Holy shit, Zhang San, you’re really sothing! Doing it right in front of everyone, huh!”

“Brothers, this is exciting!!”

“Hey! It’s better to be happy together! Count in too!”

“…”

A group of people were jabbering away, and from their voices, they all seed quite young.

Judging by their vulgar language, they didn’t seem like they were residents of Building A.

Jiang Yan’s brow furrowed tighter, and recalling the figures she had seen on a rainy night before, she hastened her pace up the stairs.

She had only made it halfway when the fire escape door was pushed open with a “clang.”

A burly man with scars on his face ca in.

From the way he reached for his waist, he was probably coming to the hallway to relieve himself.

Clearly noticing Jiang Yan’s silhouette, his mouth curled into a sinister smile and he said with a sneer,

“Hey, sweetheart, you weren’t hiding behind the door just watching us, were you?!”
