?Chapter 3: Chapter 2: The Plague of Rats_2 Chapter 3: Chapter 2: The Plague of Rats_2 Feng Yi nodded, “Heard a bit, not much. Haven’t checked the residents’ group chat lately because of the studio stuff.”
Wu Ji continued, “Then let me fill you in. Recently, there’s been another rat infestation in various parts of the downtown area. Last week, two neighboring communities hired exterminators, but instead of killing the rats, they ended up driving them to other communities. Ours is the closest, so we got hit the hardest. I heard a child was bitten by a rat, not sure if it’s true or not, there’s a lot of rumors going around lately… all chaos. Anyway, my parents on the 5th floor are so annoyed by the rats they can’t sleep at night, and those living on lower floors are having an even worse time.”
“Your place is also three-bedroom, you could stay with your parents on the 29th floor,” Feng Yi suggested.
Wu Ji waved a hand, “Different living habits with the elderly, too troublesome. Let’s just swap around and get through this rat disaster. By the way, have you had any rats in your place?”
Feng Yi thought carefully and shook his head, “Haven’t seen any, might not have noticed though.”
“Fewer rats on higher floors, but still gotta be vigilant. Heard that even the 30th floor of other buildings had rats, they’ve gotten inside the buildings. Even if they don’t use the stairs, they can still scurry over. Someone in the next building even caught a rat climbing the wall on camera!”
Wu Ji clicked his tongue, “Rats really are amazing creatures, you can find them in the highest of buildings, as long as there’s food, you can see them clambering up windows, scurrying across balconies!”
“The property management has already contacted a pest control company for a major cleanup in the next couple of days. If you go out, make sure to close your doors and windows. Your diamond mesh screen should be fine, just seal any other holes and check all the pipeline openings. It’ll be a real hassle if a rat gets in.”
After Wu Ji left, Feng Yi checked the kitchen thoroughly and didn’t find any signs of rat activity. He’d been out and about recently and hadn’t cooked at home, which was a bit messy with various documents piled up, but he had disposed of the takeout trash, and there was no exposed food to attract rats.
Stretching lazily, Feng Yi looked out at the night sky through the window. He had slept the whole day, straight through to the evening.
He filled the bathtub with water, finally in the mood for a relaxing bath.
