Chapter 89: A dilemma
In the face of disaster, everyone has a different position, some people want to go to a safer place, and some people want to make their place safer.
This will inevitably lead to a collision, after all, few people can face the panic caused by the epidemic.
Lin Feng's younger brother, Lin Shu, chose to escape before the lockdown of Wubei City, and he has not returned to his hometown for three consecutive years in order to work hard in the big city. This year, I have long been ready to go home for a reunion dinner, and my luggage has been packed. So as soon as I heard that Wubei was going to close the city, I immediately took my wife and daughter and set off.
And called to suggest that his brother do the same.
In the early morning of the day of the lockdown, Lin Feng was woken up by his younger brother's phone call, saying that Wubei was going to be locked down. At the same time, many relatives and friends who knew him in Wubei sent greetings, asking if there was anything he needed help and if he was missing, and they would mail it to him.
"To be honest, the first time I heard the news of the lockdown, it was the same idea as my brother, which was to leave overnight. I don't want to stay here, I want to leave quickly with my wife and son, probably this is the instinct to survive, the resistance to the unknown. But I missed the chance to leave smoothly. ”
But his original travel plans were a few days later than his brother's, so he didn't pack his bags.
"At that time, the whole Wubei was asleep in the night, I packed my luggage in a panic, my temper was very short, and I quarreled with my wife a few words, the children were scared and cried, and there was a shortage of soldiers, and the result was that we set off late. failed to leave Wubei before the lockdown, and tossed the child with a cold and fever. ”
After that, Lin Feng's family returned to Tianjiang Community exhausted, and there was a conflict at the gate on the first day of Rob's post, and then they didn't know each other.
"Actually, after I failed to go out of the city, I still wanted to ask a friend to help me contact the car, as long as I could get out of the city, I could do anything, but some friends had a different attitude, saying that if I can go out, don't go out, and going out is hurting others. At that time, I felt that he, as a friend, didn't understand my panic, afraid that his family would be infected and unable to receive nucleic acid testing, and I was very angry when I heard his words, and even blocked him. ”
"I was thinking, I want to live, what's wrong? No one has deprived others of the right to live. Even if I have to be scolded when I leave Wubei, I must leave with my wife and children and take them to a safe place. ”
"But in the end, I still couldn't leave Wubei, so I had to go home with my wife and children. I was in a very low mood for a few days, and I was worried that I would never see my parents again, and that my younger brother would not be stopped on the road and would not be able to leave smoothly. ”
"At that time, there were all kinds of theories on the Internet. Some people say that the epidemic in Wubei will not reach its peak until March and end in June. Moreover, there is a serious shortage of medical resources in Wubei. Fortunately, in the end, my son was not infected, just a common cold and fever, and my brother and they returned to their hometown smoothly. ”
"I thought I would be okay for the time being, but the situation on my brother's side was unexpected......"
Lin Shu's family's escape journey was not as smooth as imagined. During this time, he seemed to have seen all the situations in life, as well as those human choices in the face of the epidemic.
Lin Feng said: "After leaving Wubei, in fact, he began to panic physiologically, from the beginning of the departure, he felt that his throat was uncomfortable, and he did not eat water and rice along the way, and he had no appetite at all. Messaged me during a break in the service area and said he was scared. I was on my way back to the community and was in a grumpy mood and didn't comfort him. ”
At that time, the sky was overcast, and there were many people on the road who drove away from Wubei in a hurry but failed to return, but because of the epidemic, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. Seeing everyone, they feel that they are carrying the virus, and the protective effect of masks is very limited, and the incubation period of the virus is very long, even if you don't dare to stay too long in a place with few people, every time you go to a crowded place, it is a gamble.
Wubei has become an isolated island that cannot be entered or exited.
At the same time that Lin Feng was isolated, Lin Shu had already set foot on the land of his hometown, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his family was safe.
Before arriving home, Lin Shu called his parents in the car and told them to stay in their room and not to come out to pick them up. Knowing that the eldest son failed to come back, Lin's father and Lin's mother were very worried, but when the second son came back, they were still worried.
After arriving home at two o'clock in the afternoon, the first thing Lin Shu's family of three put down their luggage was to disinfect.
Disinfect yourself first, then use disinfectant and alcohol, wipe down the furniture, floor, bathroom, living room, kitchen and doorknobs, and take a breath until the evening.
The two elderly men of the Lin family wore masks and watched them busy through the window.
In order to be cautious, Lin Shu decided not to get in close contact with the old man first, and the family of three spent the night in one room.
But early the next morning, someone called and said that according to the monitoring of the mobile phone number, Lin Shu came back from Wubei and asked them to take their temperature once a day and report.
The staff quickly came to the door and told Lin Shu the precautions for their home isolation, and added WeChat so that they could communicate directly about treatment if they were uncomfortable.
I thought that everything should be calmed down, but what I didn't expect was that the news of their return from Wubei spread in the village.
Lin Feng said: "After several twists and turns, the family of three finally returned to their hometown from Wubei, but the whole village attacked in groups regardless of the reason, regardless of men, women and children, took turns to insult and abuse the door of the house, and asked them to go back to Wubei! Because his license plate is Wubei, he can recognize it at a glance. ”
Rob knew what happened to the Wubei people during that time, and people from all over the world talked about the color change of Wubei, as if every Wubei person had a virus, and selfishness became the label of Wubei people.
said that they were a walking virus bank, and that the epidemic became like this, and that they were all harmed by the people of Wubei.
In fact, in Rob's view, most of the kind-hearted citizens of Wubei are actively responding to the call of the country and the government and voluntarily staying in Wubei. There are people who could have had the opportunity to leave, but still choose to stay.
Some people have already bought tickets, but they are afraid of bringing the virus to their families, so they choose to return the ticket to go home for the Spring Festival. Some people canceled their long-planned travel plans, gave up the joy of returning to their hometown to reunite with their parents and children, and chose to spend the Spring Festival alone in a rented house.
For the first time, I didn't have anything to eat for the New Year. Or the first time to cook by yourself, or the first time to spend the New Year so far away from home, my heart is full of grievances, but nothing is more important than the safety of my family.
The vast majority of Wubei people are not wrong, the vast majority of Wubei people are working hard, and they chose to block themselves in order to take care of the overall situation.
