The cross is a U disk with a special structure.

It took Li Xuanyuan half a day to successfully import the contents of it into the computer—since Li Xuanyuan got this desktop computer, he spent a lot of time on it, and a layman like Hou Ying stood aside and watched Tian couldn't see what he was messing with with the computer. The old-fashioned computer display was unexpectedly clear, it could be seen that Li Xuanyuan had altered it, and the file in the cross was opened as a video.

At the beginning of the video, it is the environment of the medical research room. There are noisy conversations from time to time, and the people in white coats inside are very busy, working at a very fast pace. Judging from the perspective of the video display and the reactions of the people inside, it is obvious that it was secretly shot by some kind of miniature camera installed on the wrist watch. Thirty seconds later, the video suddenly went black, and then a person clearly appeared on the computer screen.

He was driving, raising his right hand to adjust the camera, with a very anxious expression.

"dad!"

Meng Hanghai wanted to pounce on him, but soon realized that it was just a video. Hearing his father's voice again, Meng Hanghai cried and trembled. The adults couldn't bear it, Hou Ying brought him back to her side, patted his head silently to comfort him.

In the video, the middle-aged man with facial features very similar to Meng Hanghai said: "Son, Dad is on his way to pick you up from school now, and Dad will take you out of this city to a safe place far away."

The man covered his mouth, sorted out his thoughts sadly, and then continued: "Dad originally thought that this day would never come. Dad can accompany you to study, grow up, make a girlfriend and give you back just like other children's children. Dad has a grandson... But we have to get out of here now, son, I think you need to know why I did this, if I don’t say it now, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance in the future.”

"What you saw just now is the place where Dad worked before he was thirty-five years old. The address is under the lake in Lake City. Dad is a doctor inside, but it's not the job of treating diseases, but researching a kind of medicine. The lab's The original intention was to develop anti-cancer drugs that can restore human body functions, but they all failed. Until their father was not born more than 30 years ago, they accidentally got a meteorite from the sky. They accidentally discovered the unknown substance carried by the meteorite , can stimulate human body activity, so they have been researching, and my father joined them after graduating from university."

"However, the experiments all failed. The infected body of the meteorite material, that is, some patients in the laboratory's experimental subjects, proved that the meteorite material can indeed activate the human body and restore their health in a short time, but some people died soon .Most people had lesions before they died, and they suddenly became very aggressive and violent... Just like the patients that Dad saw in the department today, Dad knew they were this kind of disease when he saw them. The unfinished drug was leaked. After these people mutate, they will have abilities that ordinary people don't have, such as great strength and fast speed, but they all died and turned into very ugly monsters. It means something that only kills and eats people.”

"Dad... Dad is sorry for you. When Dad was in a car accident, while waiting for rescue... he was injected with a drug stolen from the laboratory."

"Over the years, my father always wondered, if I had died on the spot in the car accident, wouldn't it have hurt you. After my father was rescued, he was in the same body as an ordinary person. Later, I quit the laboratory and met Your mother, and you. I didn't expect that this medicine would be passed on to you, making you a different person. You can't live as happily as ordinary children. It's all dad's fault... "

The narration in the video was interrupted for a while, because the over-excited man ran a red light and almost caused an accident, and was issued a ticket.

When talking about it again, the man skipped the previous topic: "Dad has a very bad feeling in his heart. If the secret of the lake bottom laboratory is revealed, Dad will not be able to escape the punishment of the law. Before they find Dad, Dad will Take you out of here and send you to a safe place where there are no disease variants. If Dad fails, Dad will leave this video for you."

"Listen son, Dad has already told you the source of the mutated energy in your body. Then you have to listen carefully to what Dad said next. It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, but you must keep it in your heart. After your mother...'s accident back then, Dad has been trying to let you control the abilities in your body. Because Dad found that you are different from those diseased variants. You have not lost your human thinking, nor have you shown anti-social violent tendencies and destructive desires. You just have what ordinary people have. no ability."

"It's just that when you showed this ability, you were too young and didn't have the ability to control yourself. Later, Dad really had no choice but to ask a friend of Dad to perform hypnotism on you, so that you would forget the existence of the ability. Forget that pleasant memory. But it is strange that the operation was not successful, you still remember your mother's death and your grandma's rejection, you still remember that you have this ability, but you can't use it and never use it again The doctor told me that it might be hypnotic suggestion that blocks your brain's ability to use it. Dad hasn't found the real reason all these years."

"But you have to remember, if Dad is taken away, you must find a way to use this ability, protect yourself and live well!"

The car stopped, and the middle-aged man looked in the direction of the school gate, and smiled at the camera, "My dear son, Dad hopes that all this is just Dad's imagination, and we can all be fine in the future. But no matter what the future holds, Xiao Hai , you must remember that mom and dad love you very much, you are our most precious treasure in this world. You must be strong and live well."

The middle-aged man took off his glasses, wiped his eyes, and turned off the camera.

The computer screen returned to the main interface again, and Meng Hanghai was already crying. The grown-ups looked at each other, and waited for a while for Meng Hanghai to calm down before Hou Ying whispered, "It's all right, everything will be fine, uncles will always be with you."

Meng Hanghai was sobbing and didn't speak. Seeing him was really uncomfortable. Gongsun Jing used some medicine to make him fall asleep, which made the sad atmosphere better.

Jiang Tao said: "I didn't expect this child's life experience to be so rough. It's not easy for him to be as strong and optimistic as he is now."

Qiao Daye came over and patted his head, "Now this child has become an orphan, I will treat him as my relative and take good care of him. You can also be a witness to me, if anyone dares to bully him in the future, I will Who are you in a hurry with?"

Wang Hehe also nodded in support.

Hou Ying smiled wryly: "The situation you are worried about will not happen. If there are outsiders who bully him in the future, you don't need to say, none of us will agree."

Liu Zhan hesitated and said, "Brother Tao, Xuanyuan, second child, what do you think? That meteorite...?"

Jiang Tao nodded, and several people exchanged a look, with heavy expressions on their faces. He said to Hou Ying who didn't know why: "Before we received the order to go to Hucheng for disaster relief, we had just completed a special mission. The satellite detected a large-scale meteor shower in late February, and some of the meteorites may enter the atmosphere. Relevant places land on the land or sea of the earth, causing earthquakes and tsunamis, or reflective disease disasters. So we go to these places to evacuate people."

Qiao Daye continued: "But when we arrived at the mission site, we received an order from above that those meteorites were consumed and weakened when they passed through the earth's atmosphere, and only a few large meteorites would land in the no man's land of the ocean. Let's stop the mission so as not to cause unnecessary panic in the society. At that time, we saw meteors passing by, and we could still see them very densely in broad daylight, but there was no expected disaster, so we all retreated. Immediately afterwards, we received Lake City earthquake support mission."

Jiang Tao nodded and said, just like what Qiao Daye said, "After we arrived in Hucheng, we determined that the earthquake in Hucheng was not a natural disaster but was caused by a large-scale explosion accident at the bottom of the lake in Hucheng. Now it seems that it should be after the virus infected body appeared. The laboratory under the lake has received word that it is destroying the evidence."

Liu Zhan took the words: "If it is true that Meng Hanghai's abilities and the zombie-like infected body his father found are true, then the source of the zombie virus...is probably related to that meteor."

Li Xuanyuan said: "The probability of this is more than ninety percent."

Hou Ying had never heard of this matter, so she couldn't help asking: "Since it is a large-scale meteorological event like a large-scale meteor shower, why is there no news about astronomy? The news is blocked by the higher authorities. It is not because of the early detection of this meteor. Is there the radioactive infectious material you mentioned? After you evacuated, didn’t the higher-ups take any measures against this matter?”

Liu Zhan shook his head with a wry smile, "Our soldiers are dispatched from above, who will get to the bottom of it?"

He couldn't answer Hou Ying's question.

Gongsun Jing did not attend that mission. She joined them during the disaster relief in Hucheng, so she also heard about the existence of this secret mission. She said with an ugly face: "It's definitely not wrong. The zombie virus is infected all over the world, which means that the virus carried by the meteorite material has spread throughout the earth. I think, no matter what is predicted above, if it is this level of harm Incident, they really can't take any measures in advance."

Unless all of them emigrate from the earth, the radioactive virus in the meteorite will be a catastrophe for all mankind, and no one can do anything about it, whether it is a country or a world organization.

Don't say anything stupid about informing the people in advance to let them hoard food and distribute it to avoid such stupid things. What if everything is just speculation and won't come true? Who will bear the responsibility for causing social chaos? Therefore, before this potential crisis becomes an established fact, the public sector will absolutely not disclose the news to the public.

As for whether the country will make preparations in advance... Everyone thought of the Yellow River base in the capital and the more than three million survivors in the base at the same time, and they had mixed feelings for a while.
