The meat ball found from the dead body should be the source of this "virus infection", the mucus carrying the strong toxin is being continuously secreted by it, and when this source comes into contact with the air and is exposed to the outside, it will have a severe effect on those already secreted. The toxins seem to have a big impact... the speed at which those substances spread was already fast enough, and now it's been significantly increased.
If it was said that their spreading speed was 1 meter and 10 seconds, now it is 10 meters and 10 seconds, or even faster!
According to the observation results of the investigators downstairs, it can be temporarily confirmed that Chen Xian's deduction is correct. The jelly has spread to the fourth floor, and it will not take long to cover the entire building in that highly toxic substance. They won't stop there and will most likely continue to spread...
It's like a virus that houses and buildings can infect.
Inanimate substances such as reinforced concrete are the medium and carrier of their transmission.
No one knows how far these toxins can spread.
If these jelly-like substances spread to the downstairs, and then spread wantonly in the community along the asphalt road... This community is surrounded by crowded commercial circles, and it is still early and it is not dark. In about half an hour, the city It is about to usher in its evening peak. If those substances are allowed to spread out at this juncture, then this strange case will inevitably cause extremely bad effects, and there is even a high chance that it will cause panic among the people.
Although the Bureau of Secrets has all kinds of strange methods to prevent the spread of news, and can also block the information of this case to an almost seamless level, but... who can guarantee that the bad influence caused by this case will not make the public use another way? understand
Suppose someone says that Ningchuan has an outbreak of an infectious disease, or that there is a large amount of chemical waste spreading in the city without control. Education" all over the place.
During the period when the Ningchuan branch office was just completed, from the director Huo Fatty down to the most ordinary members, no one had any feelings for the branch office they were in. They were dispatched to the frontier by the headquarters, even if they made a mistake and were educated or fired, they could still deal with it with an indifferent attitude, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a broken can.
But it's different now.
Although the Ninth Bureau of Secrets has tens of thousands of sub-bureaus all over the country, the Ningchuan Branch is definitely the best among them. The status in the industry is unmatched by other places.
When the prospects were bright, the headquarters suddenly blamed him for this strange case...
Thinking of those disastrous consequences, Fatty Huo only felt a headache.
"Xiao Chen, do you have a way to solve that source?" Fatty Huo asked, and this was what the others wanted to ask, because Chen Xian was almost their only hope at this time.
Chen Xian in the picture frowned, his expression not very good-looking.
"It can't be chopped, it's very troublesome."
Hearing these words, everyone's heart went cold.
Even Section Chief Chen finds it troublesome... Then who else can solve this thing? !
"The toughness of this thing is exaggerated. It's like the meat of a hob that can't be chopped. It's a little elastic when pinched, but its hardness is higher than metal..." Chen Xian sighed.
"Then what should we do?!" Fatty Huo was a little at a loss.
"Think of a way..." Chen Xian sighed again, with a troubled expression on his face, "This thing can't be dealt with, it should be related to those secreted jelly, now the only way to prevent their spread Just get rid of this thing..."
"Do you want to burn it?" Fatty Huo asked cautiously.
Chen Xian didn't say anything, groped in his pocket for a while, shook his head and said.
"No fire."
"..."
"How about we use drones to send you fire?" Song Jueming had an idea.
"It may not be easy to use." Chen Xian sighed, "It will take a lot of time to send a fire, and it is estimated that they will spread to the courtyard of the community in a few minutes..."
At this moment, Fatty Huo suddenly thought of something.
"Xiao Chen, isn't your code name Alien Eater?" Fatty Huo said excitedly, his eyes were bright, "Why don't you just eat it?"
Chen Xian glanced at Fatty Huo through the camera, his expression became more tangled.
"What's wrong? Is there a risk?" Fatty Huo hurriedly said, "If you're not sure, don't do it, don't risk your life!"
"It's not risky."
Chen Xian frowned tightly, and spoke in a reluctant tone.
"Mainly because it's disgusting."
As soon as the words fell, Chen Xian seemed to accept his fate, and heaved a long sigh.
"Help me prepare a toothbrush, toothpaste and water."
"You... you really eat?"
Chen Xian ignored Fatty Huo, picked up the meat ball, looked at it with disgust on his face, then closed his eyes suddenly, and threw the thing into his mouth, not daring to chew it, for fear of being surprised. He took a bite of the pus and swallowed it whole, like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit.
Seeing this scene, Fatty Huo and the others felt disgusted in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces.
"How do you feel?" Fatty Huo asked nervously. After all, this meatball is the source of those "viruses". In terms of toxicity, it may be much stronger than the jelly-like substance outside. It may not be digestible... Don't be poisoned to death by it at that time.
"It's not good." Chen Xian said, pressing his stomach, his expression was very ugly, "It looks like a fishy and smelly dead fish that has been left for a few days, and it doesn't feel very comfortable in the stomach. It's a bit like eating The feeling of overeating…”
With that said, Chen Xian found a clean place by the window sill, and slowly sat down leaning against it.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Song Jueming asked with a worried face, and he was already thinking about whether to contact the medical department to rescue him.
"I'm digesting." Chen Xian replied.
At this moment, everyone outside the building has discovered that the situation has changed.
Those cotton-like substances attached to the surface of the building seemed to be starting to "wither"... If the weeds that were suddenly sucked dry, wrinkled into a ball at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As soon as the wind blows, the shriveled and shriveled cotton-wool-like substances shatter into fine powder.
At the same time, the staff of the investigation department also found something in the building.
Those jelly-like substances all over the building are solidifying at an extremely fast speed, no different from dried glue, the overall size has shrunk by half, and the momentum of spreading has also completely stopped.
Upon receiving this news, the two leaders, Fatty Huo and Song Jueming, couldn't help being overjoyed.
"Xiao Chen, you can do it! You really solved that thing!"
Chen Xian didn't answer, but just cursed in his heart, isn't this nonsense, since he entered the industry, he hasn't encountered anything that he can't digest.
This kind of meat ball carrying highly toxic substances is extremely dangerous to ordinary aliens, but the level of threat to oneself is really low.
Even if you swallow this source in one gulp, those toxins can't help you.
Even those terrifyingly powerful abnormal beings couldn't kill him, let alone this bit of poison
After half an hour, it was confirmed that there were no more highly toxic substances in the building, and the people from the investigation department entered the building with tools, and the staff from the logistics department followed...
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the largest "cleaning activity" since the establishment of the Ningchuan branch.
From ground floor to top floor.
From inside to outside.
Every place that is contaminated by the virus and causes mutations will face the most rigorous "cleaning" by the staff. First, remove those abnormal substances that can be seen at a glance, and then do a series of finishing work such as disinfection.
Fatty Huo and Song Jueming went upstairs with these staff members.
At the crime scene on the 36th floor, Fatty Huo and the others saw Chen Xian, who hadn't recovered from his nausea.
"How do you feel? If it doesn't work, let's ask those doctors to come over and have a look!" Seeing Chen Xian sitting in the corner without moving, Fatty Huo's heart immediately arose, fearing that something might happen to his love.
"No, it will be fine in a while." Chen Xian said, and raised his hand to take the toothpaste and toothbrush from Song Jueming.
It took a full ten minutes and after carefully brushing his teeth, Chen Xian felt better, at least there was no such strange taste in his mouth.
During this process, Fatty Huo and the others did not dare to speak, and stood quietly watching him.
Seeing that Chen Xian's face looked a little better, they dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Chen, where is the metal combination box you mentioned?"
"Wait."
Chen Xian walked to the metal box, bent down and stretched out his hand suddenly. The five fingers were like steel cones, directly piercing through the solidified gelatinous substance, and abruptly lifted the combination box out.
Seeing this scene, Fatty Huo and the others were ready to step forward to take a closer look, but at this moment they found that the expression on Chen Xian's face suddenly changed.
It was an expression of being on the verge of an enemy.
"So it's them..."
