Chapter 532: A Peculiar Case
First of all, more than one piece of this kind of meteorite fell and there were several pieces on the “Meteorite Home” forum alone.
Secondly, this kind of meteorite had a common feature, which was it contained liquid inside. Once it fell to the ground, the liquid would flow out from the cracks in the meteorite.
Finally, the liquid in these meteorites had a fishy smell, reminding people of animal body fluids.
“Forget it, I’ll stop thinking about this. I’ll keep it for now.”
Han Zizhe shook his head. He placed the meteorite on the coffee table, washed up, and then lay on the bed and played with his cell phone.
Unwittingly, he slowly fell asleep.
“Squeak squeak...”
When Han Zizhe was falling asleep, a special sound came from this meteorite, and then suddenly more liquid flowed out of it. This liquid flowed out across the coffee table little by little as if it was alive and then flowed in the direction where Han Zizhe was sleeping...
Han Zizhe had a special dream.
In his dream, he walked alone on a dark street. It seemed that because it was late at night and there was no one anywhere in the street, only a few cars driving on the road.
A night wind blew past and the empty streets seemed filled with odd loneliness.
‘Where am I...’
Han Zizhe had some doubts but this kind of doubt only lasted for a moment before dissipating again. Human beings rarely doubted the logic in their dreams. This was a subconscious evasion.
Why, why was there no one on the street?
Looking at the empty street, Han Zizhe suddenly became a little confused and at the same time, an inexplicable feeling came into his heart.
This was a feeling of emptiness and a special desire.
Han Zizhe took a deep breath but felt that the loneliness was getting heavier and that he was going crazy from the silence of the street devoid of people.
How he wished he could be with people, sticking to them, melding as one, fusing flesh and blood, connecting vessels...
Suddenly, there was this feeling deep in his heart that Han Zizhe was at once startled by his thoughts in this empty and quiet street.
This scare woke him up.
Han Zizhe opened his eyes abruptly, only to realize that it was already the next day. Dazzling sunlight shone in from the window, completely dispelling the deep desire from the dream.
“In my dream, why did I have that idea?”
Immediately after waking up, Han Zizhe frowned. “Surely I’m not becoming a pervert?”
Thinking of this, Han Zizhe could not help but shiver. He only felt that his stomach was empty, racked by the unique hunger pangs of the morning.
He stopped thinking about that unique dream but looked at his watch and saw that it was almost twelve o’clock, so he got up and went out quickly.
Han Zizhe just graduated from university this year, but he had not found a job. He had only one job at present, which was to receive the allowance given by his parents, and eat, and wait to die.
Still, fortunately, his family was pretty well off. Even if he did not go to work, he would not starve to death.
Driving the car that his parents paid for, Han Zizhe first sent a WeChat message to his girlfriend. Seeing that she did not reply, he drove to his favorite restaurant and ordered a barbecue meal.
On the TV in the restaurant, the noon news was broadcasting about the meteor shower last night.
According to the news, the meteor shower last night was a large-scale meteor shower that was rarely seen even in a century. There had been more than one million meteors descending to the earth, but most of the meteors that were not large enough were burned up in the atmosphere, and only about one percent of the meteorites had fallen on Earth.
One of the most sensational ones was a giant meteorite the size of a house that fell in Mumbai, India, but fortunately, it fell on the outskirts of Mumbai without causing any casualties.
Seeing this, Han Zizhe also paid attention, wanting to hear about these meteorites, especially whether there was liquid in those meteorites. However, in the next second, the program turned to other news, and coverage of the meteorites was quickly over.
Seeing this, Han Zizhe lowered his head again. He simply opened the browser by himself and started searching for news about meteorites.
It was just that most media on the Internet was self-produced content that only talked nonsense. After reading a few articles, he lost all interest to continue reading.
After lunch, his girlfriend still did not reply, so he made a call.
Soon, Zhang Qi’s blurry voice came on the phone.
“You haven’t got up yet, little sleepyhead?”
Han Zizhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he teased her. “Would you like me to pick you up now? How about we go to a movie today?
“Okay, you wash up first, I’ll come right away.”
Hearing an affirmative reply from his girlfriend, he did not continue to stay in the restaurant, but paid the bill and drove in the direction of his girlfriend’s house.
An hour later, he waited for his girlfriend Zhang Qi outside the community area.
The moment when he saw his girlfriend Zhang Qi, Han Zizhe suddenly felt his mouth becoming a little dry. At this moment, he suddenly had the urge to become one with his girlfriend.
He pursed his mouth. He did not understand why this feeling suddenly appeared. Is it because he had been holding back for too long recently?
That could not be it...
Little did he know, the moment his girlfriend Zhang Qi saw him, she also froze for a moment, and then her expression returned to normal again.
“Why did you get up so late today?”
Seeing his girlfriend getting in the car, Han Zizhe quickly shifted his thoughts and asked casually, “I thought I had gotten up late enough today, but I didn’t expect you to not be up even by one in the afternoon. Isn’t that too much?”
“Isn’t it because I accompanied you to watch the meteor shower late last night?”
His girlfriend curled her lips, then rolled her eyes. She took Han Zizhe’s hand and said, “By the way, I had a bad nightmare last night!”
“Nightmare?”
The strange dream from last night flashed across Han Zizhe’s mind, after which he smiled. “What sort of nightmare?”
“I dreamed that I was walking in an empty city and I couldn’t find anyone anywhere...”
His girlfriend said mock-seriously, “I also saw a lot of people staring at me, they almost scared me to death!”
“So, were there no people or many people?”
Han Zizhe raised his eyebrows and started the car. “You first said that no one was to be found and then later that there were many people looking at you. Did you dream of people or not?”
“I’m not sure too...”
His girlfriend frowned suddenly, seeming to be very confused. “It feels like I didn’t see anyone and also that there was a group of people watching me from the distance, and I very much wanted those people to approach me...”
“And then?”
Hearing this, Han Zizhe’s heart suddenly leaped.
“Then, I was woken up by your call.”
His girlfriend replied, “When I think about it now, it’s really scary. If it weren’t for your phone call, I don’t know what nightmare I’d have had!”
“...”
Hearing this, Han Zizhe was silent for a moment. He was about to tell her of his dream, but suddenly noticed the red light in front of him, so he hurriedly stepped on the brakes!
There was a loud squeal. Their car had almost hit the car in front.
“Phew, so close...”
Han Zizhe heaved a sigh of relief. After this interruption, his notion of telling her his dream was also forgotten.
After arriving at the movie theater, the two negotiated and finally decided on a superficial romance. Then, they bought two buckets of popcorn and two bottles of Coke and entered the venue.
The two found their seat numbers. This time, they had deliberately chosen the last row. They sat down with enthusiasm, but at this moment, Han Zizhe felt that inexplicable impulse hit him again...
However, the source of this impulse did not originate from his girlfriend, but from somewhere near the entry.
Han Zizhe looked there instinctively, only to see a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and refined clothes walk into the venue, toward the last row where they were.
At the same time he walked in, the man seemed to feel something and suddenly raised his head. His eyes immediately met Han Zizhe’s.
At this, they both felt a jolt.
In the next second, the man recovered immediately. He smiled politely at Han Zizhe and then began to find his seat, which happened to be next to Han Zizhe’s girlfriend.
Han Zizhe observed the other party secretly for a while. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about the other party, he then turned his head back.
Just then, the lights in the venue turned off!
The movie — was starting.
This romance movie was no different than other romances. Inevitably, it was the story of a couple who fell in love, had a misunderstanding, broke up, resolved the misunderstanding, met again, had another misunderstanding, and after a series of separations and reconciliations, finally stayed together for good.
Both the male and female leads gave an average performance, but at this age, few of the viewers were looking at the acting. Most of those who came to watch were young people in love. To them, watching the movie was just a pretext.
At this time, Han Zizhe had this kind of thought. As the plot was unfolding halfway, there was a special desire stirring awake in his body. He looked around, only to find that the entire venue was dark and he could barely see half a meter away. Only the deafening acoustics could be heard throughout the venue.
Seeing this, he had impure thoughts and wanted to lean in the direction of his girlfriend.
Even so, Han Zizhe found that no matter how far he leaned over, he could not touch his girlfriend. The seats in the cinema might seem to be close, but in fact, the space between them was not that small.
Seeing this, Han Zizhe also had to dispel that notion. Anyway, there was time after this, so he was not in a hurry...
Thinking of this, Han Zizhe calmed down. After that, he even felt rather drowsy. This was obviously caused by staying up too late last night and his consequent lack of sleep.
Thus, he closed his eyes alone while listening to the sound coming from the stereo sound system.
Soon, Han Zizhe fell asleep again...
...
Looking at the deserted streets, Han Zizhe only felt a special desire in his heart surging throughout his body. He could not describe what kind of feeling it was as if it was the most primitive desire of humankind, silently burning Han Zizhe’s nerves. This caused him to be tormented by the idea of wanting to fuse with others as one.
“How I wish... How I wish to be with them, to stick with them with no distance between us, fuse into one, until our flesh and blood are fully merged and our vessels flow into one another’s. How wonderful that would be...
“Come on, let’s fuse, for we’re all alone...”
Han Zizhe murmured as he walked but at this moment, he suddenly saw dark figures appearing on the street. These people kept coming toward him. Han Zizhe did not even think about it, and immediately walked up to them...
“Agh!!!”
After some time, just when Han Zizhe was feeling dazed and dreamy, a sudden piercing scream woke him up.
This scream was full of fear as if one had seen the most horrible thing in the world. Then, the scream continued to expand and new screams even joined the chorus. At the same time, there was the commotion of many people running.
This tumultuous noise woke Han Zizhe up at once.
He first rubbed his eyes confusedly and opened his eyes to look at the source of the scream, only to see a group of men and women in the seats in front of him, with their eyes widened, looking at the seat next to him in horror.
This seat was...
Han Zizhe turned his head, still blurry, then his pupils shrank, and he suddenly jumped up!
“How, how could this be...”
Looking at his girlfriend next to him, Han Zizhe only felt cold sweat drenching his body. His face was pale and he wore an expression of extreme terror...
He saw that in the seat next to him, his girlfriend had tilted her head and was lying quietly in her seat, but what was strange was that her head and upper body had fused with the man in the gold-rimmed glasses in the neighboring seat!
Yes, fused!
The bodies of those two were glued together like conjoined twins. The heads of the two fused at the cheeks — the right cheek of Han Zizhe’s girlfriend and the left cheek of the man had merged into each other’s, embedded deep into each other’s skulls. Even their eyeballs had pressed together and then were squeezed out of their eye sockets...
At a glance, it looked like a bottle gourd was dangling on their faces...
The corners of their mouths were also merged and the tension in their skin caused the corners of their mouths to rise, creating a very peculiar curve as if they were laughing at the world...
The same was true for the bodies of the two. Han Zizhe’s girlfriend’s right arm and the man’s left arm had fused into each other’s body, even protruding from the other side, just like a deformed monster that would only appear in a horror movie or even a nightmare!
Seeing this terrifying scene, Han Zizhe only felt a deep sense of nausea. He quickly covered his mouth, but still could not hold back. He lowered his head and vomited furiously...
...
A day later.
In the morgue of the Shangdu Police Department, a body covered in white cloth was pushed in by several workers in protective suits.
Unlike ordinary corpses, this corpse seemed so huge that it could not even be covered with a wide white cloth. Several ashy gray arms protruded from the edge of the stretcher.
One, two, three...
A total of five arms protruded from this stretcher.
In the morgue, several forensic doctors who also wore protective suits were holding some tools. One of them walked up and pulled the white cloth off. At once, shock emerged in everyone’s eyes.
“This is the fourth case...”
One of the forensic doctors gasped sharply. He looked toward the stretcher and saw four or five humans fused together like a deranged and evil lump of dough...
