In a lounge on the fifth floor of the laboratory building, block b.
The young experimenter in white overalls had blood dripping from his forehead, his lips were as pale as his face, and his whole body was trembling with extreme fear, and large drops of tears or sweat fell to the ground.
Around his neck, the sharp blade radiated cold air, and goose bumps appeared on his neck.
The person holding the knife had sullen eyes, and the exposed skin was eerily red as if it had been scalded by hot water, with blood spots oozing out, and shortness of breath.
The knife holder was the target of the island guards. The young experimenter threatened by him was a student of Nick's building management. This year, he won the opportunity to stay in the island because of his excellent grades. I can only do some chores here, playing soy sauce with the project team leader, but this is enough for him to show off.
Today, as he did in the past, he finished what he had been assigned, and came here to rest for a while. As soon as he came in, he received a notice from the building manager, Mr. Nick, asking everyone to stay indoors as much as possible, while cooperating with the search, and reporting any abnormalities immediately. A guard came to ask about it ten minutes ago. He said that everything was normal and that no suspicious people were seen. The guard also told him to lock the door when he was indoors, which he did.
However, as soon as the guard left, he locked the door and turned around to find a person coming out of the freezer.
The young experimenter felt that his luck was really bad today. The experiment was not going well, and he encountered this kind of thing again. He resisted, but he stayed in the laboratory all the year round and lacked exercise. He was beaten as soon as he plucked up the courage to make a move. Now, his head still hurts, but the fear made him ignore the pain, and he didn't even know that his forehead was bleeding.
The young experimenter thought his life was in danger, but the time passed, and the intruder did not intend to kill him immediately, nor did he appear to be fleeing, nor did he ask any secrets about the laboratory, and his bloodshot eyes were always there. Stare at the door.
The initial fear passed, and gradually regained a little sanity. The young experimenter did not dare to look at the intruder directly, and looked at the other person's hand holding the knife with his peripheral vision. The blood spots on the opponent's forearm made his pupils shrink suddenly, and then he caught a glimpse of the sealed bottle in the opponent's other hand, and the tears that had just stopped opened again.
He is too familiar with that kind of sealed bottle. As a person in the field of virus research, he sees that kind of sealed bottle every day. It was a virus, but now, the sealed bottle in the other party's hand is open, which means that the rest room has been contaminated.
"Time... It's almost time..." The person holding the knife seemed to be in great pain with every breath. As he spoke, the blood went straight down his throat, spewing a large mouthful of blood.
Seeing the blood splattered on his body, the experimenter's teeth were chattering.
The other party showed a crazy smile, and he didn't say much. He blocked the experimenter's mouth with a rag, gave the experimenter a blow on his head, and bleed the wound that had stopped bleeding again.
Outside the lounge door.
Fang Zhao stopped after tracking here. He raised his hand and made a "back" gesture to the guards who were coming towards him.
Zhao Chao and the captain of the guard team, who saw this scene in the surveillance, frowned and were surprised.
"What does he mean?" asked the captain of the guard.
"Maybe I heard something." Zhao Chao's voice just fell, and his face changed suddenly when he received the news from Fang Zhao.
The captain of the guard team was also shocked into a cold sweat, and contacted the people who followed Fang Zhao on that floor, telling them not to lean over for the time being and wait for the order. At the same time, another team that changed into virus protective clothing quickly walked over there.
"It's too late." Nick's building manager started the isolation procedure on that floor.
The next moment, the door of the lounge in front of Fang Zhao opened.
The experimenter, whose consciousness has become somewhat blurred, can no longer see the situation in front of him. He knows that he is being blocked in front of him as a human shield, and the door of the lounge is opened. He is very anxious. He knows the consequences of the virus escaping. He wants to shout. , tell everyone what happened here, and ask Nick to start the anti-virus and isolation program, but he can't shout. He only saw what seemed to be a figure in front of him, and then...
boom!
The experimenter felt that the hands behind him that were like the claws of death were loosened.
Behind him, the target pursued by the inspection team and the guard team had blood spattered on his forehead, and he couldn't rest his eyes.
In the monitoring room of the building, the two captains were just about to urge the snipers to take their place, when they saw the call from the monitoring screen raise their hands and shoot.
Fang Zhao's voice came from Zhao Chao's earphone: "Report captain, the target has been killed."
Zhao Chao: "..."
Captain of the Island Guard: "..."
The inspection team led by Zhao Chao generally assists in tracking and arresting. In some cases, the guards rush forward. It is rare to encounter situations where they are faster than the island guards.
In the situation just now, it took great courage and precise judgment to do it.
The experienced island guards know that in such a situation, they can be killed in one shot, but the members of the inspection team are milder in comparison. Even if there are inspectors with good marksmanship, they may take care of blocking the front The experimenter of the spy, or still thinking about whether to save the target's life for subsequent interrogation, and hesitant to shoot, miss the opportunity and cause greater losses.
The members of the guard squad who stood a little far but clearly saw the scene of Fang Zhao's neat shooting: Oh, gentle
No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, now the target has been killed, the virus escape has been controlled in a small area, and everyone in that area has been taken away and quarantined.
Manager Nick quickly got information about the virus.
"A synthetic virus created by some people who want to kill can not be regarded as a finished product, but a semi-finished product. It spreads through the air and has limited ability to invade susceptible organisms, but it is also very troublesome if it is successfully invaded. The attack time depends on different The physical condition can be as short as a few minutes, or as long as ten or twenty days. According to the experimental data we have obtained, the longest is twenty-nine days, and the incubation period is difficult to detect. I am afraid you need to be quarantined here for a month.
In other words, even if the Whale Island Conference is over, you can't go back for the holidays. Welcome to the anniversary team. "
In the new century, Remembrance Day is the most important festival every year. Office workers have a rare long holiday and it is also the best reunion day of the year.
When Fang Zhao talked to Mr. Fang not long before he came to Jingdao District, the old man also asked Fang Zhao to come back to Yanzhou to celebrate the festival this year.
Now in this situation, I'm afraid I can't go back. I have to explain it to Mrs. Fang.
However, now is not the time to think about that.
"If I am diagnosed with the virus, can it be cured? What is the mortality rate?" Fang Zhao asked.
"It can be cured, and the mortality rate of contracting this virus is not high, only 17%." Nick Lou said.
Zhao Chao, who had been silent next to him, almost jumped up when he heard this. The death rate of 17% is already very high! ! That is, Nick, who is exposed to deadly viruses all day long, will think this data is low!
As the captain of the inspection team, Zhao Chao looked at Fang Zhao who was quarantined and felt guilty. Fang Zhao was only under 30 years old and was still a temporary worker. If the situation was not critical, he would not have let Fang Zhao rush forward.
This time, the rest of the guards were fine. Due to Fang Zhao's reminder, the team did not approach. After the target was killed, the isolation was quicker, and the possibility of them contracting the virus was very low. The only people in danger now are Fang Zhao and the unlucky experimenter.
"How is the injury of the experimenter?" Fang Zhao asked.
"It's okay, although he was injured a little bit, but fortunately, he needed to inject two antidote yesterday because of the experiment, and these two antidote happened to have a certain preventive effect on this synthetic virus, and the effective period is 24 hours. , it hasn't timed out yet. But isolation and observation is still needed. Even if he is injured, he will be quarantined for a month like you. Both of you, and the security team on that floor, must join the team to stay on the anniversary." Nick Lou Tube said.
Zhao Chao felt more guilty. Nick means that Fang Zhao is the only one in danger
Someone in the literary and art circles had a good time, but was called over to perform a mission and was quarantined. Quarantine doesn’t matter, as long as you don’t get sick, a month will pass quickly. But if you get sick...
Zhao Chao wanted to comfort Fang Zhao, but when he was about to speak, he heard Fang Zhao ask again: "The person who was killed should not have been exposed to the virus for a long time. Now it seems that he opened the virus seal after entering the lounge. Bottle? Where did the virus come from?"
Nick Lou nodded, "The result detected now is that only that piece is contaminated, so he did open the sealed bottle after entering the lounge, and it takes time to open this kind of sealed bottle. Where did the virus come from? You know, that's the matter of the Bureau of Investigation. As for why he had such a rapid attack, it was because he had been stimulated by drugs in the first place, and his neuromuscular hyperexcited, and then his cells and organs functioned abnormally."
"It's not right." Fang Zhao said, "It's not over yet."
Without waiting for Zhao Chao and Nick to ask more, they received a communication almost at the same time.
Just now, after asking the injured experimenter some details, the captain of the guard team also had a bad premonition. He asked the other two units of the laboratory building to check again. Then, he received a bottle that was missing from the third unit of the laboratory building. Super viral reply.
The management of Unit 3 was careless and someone took advantage of it, and the building management will definitely be slapped down, but now is not the time to hold anyone accountable.
Zhao Chao immediately contacted the people in the team and transferred the dogs in the inspection team who were good at this.
Nick's face was not good either, but he wasn't too irritable.
"The lost one is also a synthetic virus, but it belongs to the super virus level. If the virus escapes, all vertebrates in the entire whale island area will suffer. However, for this level of virus, the sealed bottles are encrypted in multiple layers. , the material is special, and it takes a lot of time to force it to open. With the current search efforts in the island area, the person who stole the virus has no time to open it. But if he is allowed to escape, the consequences will be disastrous.”
"Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and all the gates in the island area are now closed." Zhao Chao looked at Fang Zhao, "borrow your curly hair."
Many inspection dogs only obey the trainer's orders. Curly hair is just a dog, non-professional, it is smart but has no big picture, no sense of responsibility, it only listens to Fang Zhao's words. Zhao Chao can only bring it to Fang Zhao.
Curly hair wanted to rush forward when he saw Fang Zhao, and he wanted to raise his claws to grab it when he encountered the safety glass, but was stopped by Fang Zhao.
"Curly, take Captain Zhao Chao to search for people, find the lost bottle of virus, don't let the thief leave the whale island!"
Curly squatted in front of the safety glass, humming, unwilling.
Fang Zhao squatted down and looked at the curly hair outside the safety glass of the isolation room: "I can't go out now, let Captain Zhao Chao take you on a mission, and go back to play a new game with you after completing the mission."
Because there were other people around, Fang Zhao didn't dare to say it too clearly, but Curly Hair understood what Fang Zhao meant, his drooping ears instantly stood up, he twitched his tail, looked at Fang Zhao, and walked to Zhao Chao.
Zhao Chao recalled what Fang Zhao said to the curly hair just now, classify it
One, find the lost bottle of virus.
Second, do not let those who steal the virus leave the island.
Nothing is missing, it should be fine.
Lazy speech
Didn't finish it yesterday.
See you tomorrow.
