Chapter 302 Question

Everyone stared at the crystals on the screen, which looked like falling shards from a glass chandelier. It's hard to believe that these things and their kind have caused so much suffering and death to humans, let alone how many animals have died. A seemingly dead microorganism comes back to life and multiplies rapidly once it invades living cells, and within forty-eight hours it produces a strong man of nearly two hundred pounds, can this not make people afraid?

Dr. Liu reached out and turned off the TV monitor. Theresa asked Dr. Liu if it was yesterday morning, because it was past midnight, and Dr. Liu said, "They were a little nervous." Vidi complained about a migraine, so they decided to go home. None of us was surprised by that. ”。

Hearing this, Sean asked very directly, "Do you think they brought anything from here yesterday?"

Dr. Liu thought for a moment before replying, "I don't know, how could I know?";

Theresa asked, "How hard is it to get out of here?, what would you do if you were you?";

"Well, I can take the test tube from this, or even the other room, and then go into the women's locker room and put the tube or bottle in the vent in the room. No one cares where a vial goes, especially if the vial is not registered. Next, I walked into the shower, threw my work clothes into the clothes basket, showered, and walked to my locker. At this point, I can take the test bottle and stuff it into my handbag. I put on my clothes and walked through the corridor to leave the building. Hop on the bus to the ferry port and head home. No one is watching you shower, and there are no cameras. You'll find out when you go out later. ”。 Dr. Liu said.

Sean asked, "What about the big items?" Too big to ...... Well, it's big anyway. ”；

"Anything that can be hidden in the work clothes of the real yàn room can be brought to the shower. You'll have to use your brains when you get there. For example, if I want to bring a bottle of sequential analysis gel into the shower, I'll hide it in a towel. Dr. Liu said.

Theresa thought for a moment and said, "You can also hide it in a basket of clothes with your overalls." ”；

"No, then you won't be able to come back. The clothes were all contaminated. In fact, your used towels have to be put in another basket as well. At this time, if someone is watching, they can see that you have brought something out. But if you come out to shower at a special time, it's likely that you're the only one in the shower. Dr. Liu said as he looked at Theresa.

Sean imagined yesterday when Viddy and Tom were in the shower. The scene of taking things out of the building without permission. Then he asked, "If everything here is contaminated with different processes, why do you hide the test tube containing the things in your clothes?"

"Of course, you have to do basic disinfection first," says Dr. Liu. You wash your hands with the special soap in the rest room, put a test bottle or tube on a plastic sleeve, and use disinfectant gloves or latex film for larger items. You have to be careful, but don't be too paranoid. ”；

At this point, she paused, and then continued, "As for computer information. They can be transferred from a computer in the bio-quarantine to a computer in the administrative district office, so you don't have to steal disks or tapes. For handwritten, printed records, charts, etc., it's common practice to fax all of these things from this to your own office. You can see that there are fax machines everywhere, and there is one outside every office in the biocontainment. That's the only way you can take the record from here. Many years ago. You'll have to soak it in a special paper solution, let it dry, and then take it away the next day. Now use the fax machine, and when you get back to the office, the records have been faxed over and waiting for you to pick them up. ”；

Sean said, "See, the real room records are stained with germs, fax the records to your office." You need a shower to wash away germs, and they don't. ”。

Theresa looked at Dr. Liu and asked, "Do you think the Bartys took something from here that would be dangerous to living things?";

"Oh, no, it won't. Whatever they take, if they do take something out, it will not be pathogenic, but therapeutic, beneficial, detoxifying. I vouch for my life, it's definitely a good thing. Dr. Liu said.

Theresa looked at Sean and said, "Our lives are on the stake." ”。

Then, everyone left Dr. Liu and the X-ray room and continued to walk forward.

As the crowd walked, Clinton said, "As I said before, and Dr. Liu agrees, if the Bartys steal something, it's a genetically mutated virus vaccine, most likely the I-Bora vaccine, which is the goal of their research." ”；

Everyone seemed to agree with him. But Sean thinks Dr. Liu is a little too proper, too perfect, and she doesn't know the Barty as she or Dr. Clinton says she does.

As Sean and others stride down the labyrinthine corridors, Dr. Clinton explains: "We study viral diseases such as malignant mucositis, hemorrhagic fever and bluetongue, and we also study various pneumonias, a wide variety of bacterial diseases and various parasitic diseases. ”；

"Doctor, I got a C in biology because I cheated on the exam. What you said about bluetongue confuses me. But what I want to ask is, you're going to make a lot of viruses for research, aren't you?", Theresa asked.

"Yes, but I can assure you that we don't have the capacity to make enough microbes for use in bioweapons, if that's what you're referring to. Clinton looked at the long-legged chick and said.

"She's referring to the occasional radical action, are you making enough bacteria?" asked Sean.

Clinton shrugged and said, "Maybe." ”

"It's possible again. Sean said with a smile.

"Oh yes, enough for a terrorist operation. Clinton said.

"Take a coffee can full of anthrax to the San Francisco neighborhood and spray it into the air. Is it true that you can kill 200,000 people?" asked Sean.

Clinton didn't answer right away, but thought for a moment before saying, "It's possible." Who knows? It depends on the direction of the wind. The wind, and is it in the summer? Is it at lunchtime?", Sean asked, "Tomorrow, no." Is it the rush hour this evening?";

"Well, 200,000, 300,000, 1 million, it doesn't matter how many numbers it is, because no one knows, and there's no one who can have a coffee can full of anthrax. We're especially careful with that virus. Clinton said.

"That's good, but the other viruses aren't particularly tightly managed?" Sean asked.

Clinton was a little helpless. Looking at Sean, he said, "I've already said that if something is missing, it's an antiviral vaccine, which is what the Barti couple are studying. You'll understand. Wake up tomorrow morning, you're all still alive, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. And six or seven months later. If a pharmaceutical company or a foreign government announces the development of an I-Bora vaccine, the World Health Organization will buy 200 million first, and if you find the person who has profited the most, you will find the murderer. ”；

After a few seconds of silence, Sean said, "The FBI has decided to hire you." Doctor. ”；

Everyone laughed. In fact, everyone wanted to believe at this time, and they did believe his words, and everyone felt a little relieved, full of joy for the good news that Clinton said, and unconsciously happy to think that they would wake up tomorrow and not be infected with bluetongue or something, and there really was no one who paid as much attention to this case as they did at the beginning. Except, of course, only Sean.

Clinton continued to lead the crowd through various rooms, introducing them to diagnostic methods, reagent replication, monoclonal antibody research, genetic engineering, spreading viruses, and vaccine propagation.

People who engage in this kind of research are generally eccentric personalities. But in Sean's view, the Barty couple are normal ordinary people, so their colleagues must think they are more ostentatious, and that's how Clinton describes them. "yes, I'm a bit of an introvert, like most scientists," Clinton said. Do you know the difference between an introverted biologist and an extroverted biologist?".

"I don't know. Sean shook his head.

"Extroverted biologists will stare at your shoes when they talk to you. With that, Clinton burst out laughing, even though Sean didn't like the joke, he laughed too, and it was in the other party's room.

The group looked at the various places where the Bartis' research project was taking place, and then visited their own room.

In the Bartys' small room, Dr. Clinton said, "As project directors, the Bartys mainly supervise and direct the research, but they also do some of their own research here. ”；

Theresa asked, "Isn't there anyone else working in this real room?";

"Well, there are a few assistants, but this is the domain of the two Dr. Barty. I spent an hour here in the morning to see if anything was wrong, but nothing suspicious remained. Clinton said this like a detective.

Sean swept the entire environment. Actually, I thought, maybe there was evidence of a crime before, but if the Barty couple had planned to finish their secret activities yesterday and finally steal things out of the real room, they would have cleaned up the place as early as yesterday morning or the day before yesterday. But the premise of this inference is that Sean believes that the case is related to the I-Bora virus. Of course, it is impossible to make up the conclusion at this time, so he just believes, the word "related"!

Theresa looked at Clinton and said, "You shouldn't go into the murder victim's workplace, and you shouldn't look around, move or touch objects." ”；

Clinton shrugged his shoulders and said, "So, how do I know this? Do you know what my job is?";

Theresa said, "Well, I just want you to know. ”；

"Okay, the next time my two senior scientists are murdered, I definitely won't go into their real room. Clinton said.

Theresa was still clever enough not to dig into it and say nothing.

Everyone looked around in the real room, but they didn't find any notebooks or beakers marked "Youtong", there were no mysterious messages on the blackboard, there were no corpses in the closet, and there was nothing that a layman could imagine when solving the case. If there was any evidence of a crime, it is now gone. This is probably a good thing that the Barty couple or Clinton, who may have been here earlier, did.

Unlucky, I found nothing in Barty's real yàn room. Even Sean didn't find anything related to the case, so everyone had to continue visiting.

After that, Sean and the others worked with a dozen or so couples with Barty. or the scientists they had worked for, Sean summed it up in his mind and came to several conclusions: first, everyone liked Tom and Viddy, two, Tom and Viddy were excellent, three, Tom and Viddy would not hurt even a fly unless it could benefit the development of science and serve humans and animals, four, although they were loved, the Barty couple were a little eccentric, and five. Although the Bartis were honest in their personal dealings, they could also make a fool of themselves by stealing vaccines for the same price as gold. In the end, Sean's feeling is that the word is all spoken.

The group continued to walk up the stairs to the second floor.

"Sometimes I feel like I'm claustrophobic," Clinton said. ”

"Me too. Sean continued to talk nonsense.

Dr. Clinton went on to talk about the training program and the visiting scientists, graduate students, and veterinarians from around the world who want to study and teach here. He also mentioned the Agency's foreign cooperation projects in Israel and Color, Kennya, Modongo, Mina and Inge Bamboo. "Actually, Mr. and Mrs. Batty went to Ingerbamboo's Wright room about a year ago, in the south of London, and that's our sister room. ”

Sean asked, "Have you ever been to the military's chemical troops?";

Clinton looked at Sean and said, "No matter what I say, you always have a problem." I'm glad you're listening carefully. ”

"I listen to find answers to my questions. Sean said.

"The answer is that it's none of your business, Mr. Sean. Clinton finally got a little impatient.

Sean smiled and said, "It's my business, doctor." If we suspect that the Bartis stole microorganisms that could be used to make biological weapons, and that led to their murder, we must find out if there are such microorganisms here. In other words, are there bioweapons experts in this building?

Dr. Clinton looked at Theresa, and the tall and short officer combination, and said, "I'd say that no one in the military's chemical unit has ever been here, and that's lying." They are extremely interested in vaccines and antidotes against biohazard hài. The U.S. government does not conduct research, development, and manufacturing of offensive biological weapons agents, but if it does not even study defensive measures, it is tantamount to suicide. Only with defense measures can we protect people's lives one day when that villain with the anthrax canister rows a boat around wreaking havoc. I assure you, Mr. and Mrs. Barty have no dealings with the military, they have not done any research in that area, and they have managed to get their hands on such a deadly poison!";

"Except for E. Bora?" said Sean.

"You did listen very carefully, and my scientists should be as attentive as you are. Clinton said, "But why are we asking ourselves for trouble with the I-Bora weapons? We have anthrax." Improving anthrax is like improving gunpowder. The anthrax virus is easy to multiply, easy to handle, easy to spread into the air, people infected with anthrax do not die very quickly, which is conducive to the spread of the virus, its disability rate and lethality rate are comparable, can bring down the enemy's medical system. However, I officially declare that we do not have anthrax bombs or shells. The point is, if the Bartis wanted to develop biological weapons to sell to foreign countries, they didn't have to bother with I-Bora at all. They are all smart people who understand this. So, you don't have to doubt that. ”；

"I'm so relieved. Sean smiled and said, "By the way, when did the Barty couple go to England?"

"Let me think about it...... Last May. I remember envying them to go to England in May. Why do you ask this?", Clinton said.

Sean did not answer the rhetorical question, and said: "I guess the cost of the Barty couple to go to the UK is paid by the government, right?";

"Of course, it's tolerance. "I remember the fact that they spent a week in London at their own expense," Clinton said. ”；

Sean nodded, but he couldn't remember that Barty's family had a particularly large credit card bill in May or June last year. Where the hell were they that week? It won't be in a London hotel, unless he runs away from paying the bills. Sean also doesn't remember any of the large amounts of cash they had withdrawn.

The crowd walked down a long hallway, and no one spoke, and then Clinton asked, "Do you hear the noise?" and he stopped, put his hand to his ear, and said, "Can you hear me?"

And they all stood still, and listened intently. The tall officer asked, "What?"

"Roar, roar, ......" Clinton was talking about this, but saw the short policeman crouch down, put his palm on the ground, and asked, "Earthquake?";

"No!" Clinton said, "it's my stomach that screams, and I'm hungry." He laughed out loud and patted his big belly as he said, "Don't be too nervous," a phrase with an accent that made it even more comical. Everyone laughed, except for the short officer, who stood stiff and patted the dust on his hands as if he had been infected with the virus.

Clinton walked over to a red-painted door with six standard Occupational Health and Safety Agency markings: biohazard, radioactive, chemical waste, high voltage, poisoning hazard and untreated household waste. Clinton opened the door and said, "This is the lunchroom." ”。 (To be continued) RQ
