There were bees outside my room yesterday, and I'm not sure if they are gone now. It's a small swarm, but still a swarm nonetheless, and it freaked me out somewhat.
The revelation that there were bees out there started when I saw 2 or 3 bees in the living room. I looked out and saw quite a lot more, so I closed the all windows, since bees can fly and they could enter from anywhere. There were also 2 or 3 bees in my room, and they kept coming in, either because the windows were not closely tightly or that quite a few bees had already entered before I closed the windows but we didn't notice. I was scared of the bees, so my parents had to do the job of swatting them.
Perhaps my father is more merciful than the rest of us, he insisted that we open all the windows so that the bees could fly out. I insisted that we close all the windows so that the bees couldn't fly in (since the concentration of bees outside the room is greater than the concentration of bees in the room, probability-wise bees would spontaneously have a net movement into the rooms if we don't close the windows). Anyway, I didn't resist much. Once I saw him open the windows, I grabbed my keys and handphone and went to the opposite block to watch. I could see that the windows of my unit were all closed, and my father was spraying Baygon(of course from the opposite block I couldn't read the words on the canister, I only found out when I came back later). After a while, both of my parents went downstairs to see the big picture. The hive was at the 11th floor (we live at the 13th), nearest to my room. There was a unit at the 12 floor with the windows open.
We went for dinner outside, and after we came back it was getting dark. I suppose the bees were quite tired, so they didn't fly about, and they stayed in their hive, not disturbing anyone. At night, I heard someone scream. Perhaps it came from the unit at the12th floor with the windows open, and the owner just came back from work.
On the very same day, Shen Diao Xia Lv was showing the scene where Zhao Zhi Jing was killed by a swarm of bees while helplessly trapped in a bell. Not very pleasant, I say.
