Chapter 178: Deterioration
Just by waking up, the world seems to be changing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Du Shen walked down the street and was fascinated by the TV in the roadside shop. On the TV, an old man with thinning hair and gray hair was wearing a snow-white lab coat and was hastily explaining. The old man's face was anxious and he was out of breath: "Viewers in front of the television, I am going to disclose a terrible piece of news to you now. Our country is currently spreading a terrible disease. It mutates the human body......"
Before the old man could finish speaking, the TV screen suddenly flashed, the screen was full of blue, and then changed to the usual picture when the TV was off.
In the store, the middle-aged shopkeeper got up inexplicably and looked for the remote control: "What's the matter? Why did an old man suddenly jump out and say something about viruses and mutations." ”
The shopkeeper stood in front of the old TV and kept changing the channel with the remote control. Everything on the other TV stations is normal, and the content is normal.
The shopkeeper put down the remote control with some uneasiness and turned to look out the door at the street. The streets are noticeably quieter than ever. The shopkeeper remembers that police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, and even military trucks have been driving past the door from time to time since early in the morning.
The shopkeeper was worried: "Could it be that there is really some virus infection? Maybe it's just the flu recently?" The shopkeeper secretly hesitated whether to close down and go home.
Du Shen stood outside the store for a moment. When the shopkeeper stopped changing the channel, Du Shen continued to move forward casually. Yesterday, Du Shen found out on the Internet that infectious diseases and influenza were sporadically mentioned elsewhere. Today, the situation in Xiangling City seems to be out of control.
There are very few pedestrians on the streets, and even the traffic is noticeably sparser than usual. Occasionally, Du Shen could see some strange people wandering the streets. These people were scarlet-eyed, as if they were blind, and as if they had lost their minds. They were aimlessly pacing the streets or in a daze.
Du Shen wandered around the city for most of the day, and he had given up his plan to find money to buy supplies. He wandered around, looking for warehouses and supermarkets that were closed. Du Shen intends to collect supplies directly from these places.
Du Shen was still relatively unfamiliar with Xiangling City, and before he could search for a suitable target according to his memory, a police car suddenly stopped beside him.
In the police car, Li Xi drove alone. Her police uniform and face were stained with large patches of undried blood. Li Xi beckoned to Du Shen and said loudly: "Du Shen, do your words yesterday count?"
Du Shenle leaned to the co-pilot's window: "If I am obliged to help, of course it counts!"
Li Xi beckoned irritably: "Then hurry up and get in the car!"
Du Shen got into the car. When the car started, Du Shen looked at Li Xi's embarrassed appearance, and then looked at the strange passers-by outside the window: "Officer Li, what's the situation now? Today's city is particularly quiet......
The vehicles on the road became more and more sparse, Li Xi stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and kept accelerating: "You don't have to guess. Soon the city will report the situation and organize a retreat. I'm going to take you to help now, to carry supplies. ”
Du Shen was confused, and looked at Li Xi brightly: "Officer Li, what is the retreat? Where to retreat?" You can explain in detail. ”
"Got it," Li Xi twisted the steering wheel anxiously and kept overtaking, "The virus spread, and overnight, it seems that someone in every citizen's family is sick." Since early in the morning, hospitals and police stations have been receiving calls for help, and they are simply too busy. Not long ago, we received a notice from our superiors. The disease that is currently circulating is a terrible biological virus. Viruses can make people irrational and aggressive. ”
Li Xi raised his chin and motioned to Du Shen to look out the window: "The red-eyed pedestrians outside are patients." Don't look at the way they look now. That's when they just got sick. Based on experience from other regions. The patient will gradually become bloodthirsty, become more powerful, and ignore the pain. They will keep biting at normal people nearby. ”
"Be careful. Li Xi irritably tugged at the collar and placket, revealing a little snow-white vest. She tugged at the neckline of her vest twice, opening it slightly, as if it was very hot: "According to the intelligence of the superiors." The virus appears to spread in two ways, one by air and one by the body fluids of the patient. The incidence of airborne transmission is low, and the incidence of bodily fluid transmission is extremely high. So, beware of not getting bitten by the sick!"
Du Shen pointed at Li Xi's face in surprise: "Officer Li, blood is also considered a body fluid, right? You are covered in so much blood, will you also be infected?"
"Shut up," Li Xi glared at Du Shen fiercely, "The blood on my body was left behind when my colleague was injured." He's normal!"
"That's not right," Du Shen leaned back slightly in fear in order to stay away from Li Xi, "Officer Li, I don't think something is right with you." Your eyes are so red right now!"
Li Xi was startled, and hurriedly leaned slightly to look at the rearview mirror in the car. Sure enough, she saw that her eyes were abnormally red. Not because it was bloodshot, but as if there was a reddish fluid flowing in the sockets.
Li Xi's face instantly became gloomy. She yelled at Du Shen irritably: "Shut up! If you talk nonsense, I'll bite you to death first!"
Du Shen nodded and quieted down. How could he be afraid of Li Xi's mutation?
Li Xi picked up the speed again, and there were two slight scrapes along the way. She swerved sharply, slammed on the brakes, and slid by inertia. Ahead, several trucks are parked on the side of the road. Through the low fence, Du Shen saw that there were more large trucks parked in the yard next to the road. The trucks are scattered, with the rear of the trucks facing two large warehouses. In the warehouse, a large number of figures came in and out. The figure either operates the machine, or directly does it, constantly moving the bags and boxes in the warehouse into the truck.
The police car slowly stopped at the gate of the yard. Du Shen looked through the car window and saw the door number of the yard. It turned out to be a food processing plant.
Li Xi turned his head to look at Du Shen and warned sternly: "I'm helping you." The army and police are about to leave the city and are collecting daily necessities from place to place. You go in to help, retreat with the big group, at least you won't starve, and you'll be protected. Get out of the car!"
Du Shen got out of the car and said worriedly: "Officer Li, what about you? I'm really worried about your situation......
"Get out!" Li Xi scolded. Without waiting for Du Shen to close the passenger door, Li Xi suddenly started the police car and left, faster and faster.
Du Shen shook his head, secretly speculating that Li Xi was probably really infected by the virus. He watched as the police car walked away towards the factory gates.
At the gate of the compound, two men were smoking leisurely. The two men had been staring at Du Shen for a long time. When Du Shen approached, one of the elders asked, "Who are you, what do you want to do?"
Du Shen smiled: "I am a volunteer. The female police officer just sent it. I'm here to help with the supplies. ”
The elder nodded, flicked his cigarette butt, and pointed to the courtyard: "Then hurry in and help! Time is tight, the task is heavy, and the machine alone can't keep it busy." It takes manpower to do it yourself. ”
Du Shen nodded, walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped. He smiled and asked, "Since the situation is urgent, why don't you two go in and help?"
A 20-something smoker was furious: "I can't move." If you don't want to move, give me ......."
The elder in his thirties gently tugged at his companion and blocked his companion's angry scolding. He smiled and said gently: "We have been busy just now, now we are resting! In addition, there must always be people at the door to keep an eye on it, so as to detect danger in advance." You get the idea!"
Du Shen glanced at the two smokers. The clothes of the two were clean and tidy, and there was no sweat or sweat stains on the surface of their bodies. Du Shen smiled, turned around and walked into the yard: "So that's the case!"
Du Shen's smile was meaningful, obviously not believing the elder's explanation. The young doorman was annoyed, threw the cigarette butt hard, raised his foot and rushed towards Du Shen, and was quickly stopped by the old man.
Du Shen walked into the depths of the courtyard. There was a man who was really out of breath and asked him. Du Shen explained briefly and joined the team carrying flour according to the arrangement. He made a lot of effort, but in fact, he secretly restrained his strength, so as not to be noticed by others.
The amount of products such as flour and biscuits hoarded in the factories is huge. As soon as Du Shen was busy, he passed twenty years. Du Shen was about to imitate the performance of others, drinking water and resting. Suddenly, he heard an anxious shout coming from the door: "Evacuate! ”
Du Shen, like everyone else, bypassed the shelter of the truck and observed the situation outside through the fence. Sure enough, he saw a large number of figures, stumbling forward. The figure was densely populated, blocking almost the entire road.
The people around Du Shen instantly became chaotic. Everyone climbed into the truck and urged the driver to hurry up. The driver was also in a hurry, jumped into the driver's seat, and immediately started the car. Ignoring the fact that there were people crawling into the carriage behind him.
Several trucks rushed to the factory gate at the same time. Because it was too urgent, several trucks collided with each other one after another. The collision was more violent, and the two trucks at the front stopped at the same time, blocking the road. The other trucks in the factory, regardless of it, still rushed to the gate. In the blink of an eye, the vicinity of the gate was completely blocked. In a short period of time, even the first two trucks could not get out.
Figures in trucks and factories are in chaos. Someone shouted, "Don't get in the car, it's too late, let's run......" The crowd responded.
Du Shen didn't rush to the factory gate like others. Instead, he secretly hid in the depths of the factory. Du Shen planned to wait for everyone to escape, and then use the crystal dust to collect all the materials here.
