Chapter 222: The Fallen City
Friday, June 3, 2022. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar.
The sixth day after Pinghu City was locked down and quarantined.
In the morning, the sun slowly rises from the east and hangs high on the ancient camphor trees of Fengguan Mountain for nearly 1,000 years. The tall canopy of trees shivered in the morning breeze. There is not a single tourist in the large Pinghu Park. The wind gradually increased, passing over the empty Pingjiang River, and the waves rushed to the Pinghu embankment, shattering with a bang. Pingjiang whimpered, rolling with a muffled thunderous sound.
The sun is rising higher and higher. The haze gradually dissipated, and the white clouds flew through the blue sky like sails. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival in the fifth month of the lunar calendar, which was originally a good day for dragon boat racing, and there are still not many people on both sides of the Pingjiang River. The rare Dragon Boat Festival is cold, and the north wind of Xiao Xiao makes the temperature drop from more than 30 degrees to below 20 degrees at once.
Rumors spread everywhere, and people in Pinghu City were panicked. Legend has it that on the eve of liberation, an alien spaceship fell in the mountains and forests south of the city. The violent impact and the raging fire were also noticed in the city, but the constant fighting was so common that even the sound of explosions and flames did not make anyone feel special. The ship and the crew in distress were burned to the ground in the fire. In the midst of this disaster, some crew members managed to escape and hid in the surrounding areas. They learn the language of the locals, have plastic surgery on themselves, and gradually integrate into the local society. With their own unique skills, they quickly made a fortune, married a wife, had children, and started a family. Still, these crew members are in serious trouble. Their constitution is different from that of humans on Earth, and they never go to the hospital to see a doctor. The deadly WXR9 virus they carried has never been discovered. The alien virus not only affects its own life, but also poses immeasurable danger to the earthlings. WXR9 has a long incubation period and may be inherited from one generation to the next. It is rumored that Ou Hai and Ou Wenjie, who died not long ago, died from a virus attack. Hu Jing and Jin Shiming, who were close to them, were also admitted to the hospital, and their companies and enterprises were also quarantined. Eurasia had been to the capital before. Soon after he returned, people continued to die in Pinghu. Eurasia is believed to be the propagator of this virus. After that, Zhao Zhiqiang and Lu Yukun, who were close to Eurasia, died, and Xie Ziyun went crazy. Jiang Caiyuan, who had contact with Eurasia, also died. Companies and enterprises with ties to Europe and Asia have either been shut down or their personnel have been quarantined for inspection. The whole city was locked under martial law, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Only the necessities of life can go into the city. It is not for the sake of receiving the necessities of life, and it is difficult for people to go out and walk.
In this catastrophe, Long Yin became a hero who saved the world. It was he who was the first to report to the relevant departments that Pinghu Ou was a descendant of aliens, and he had doubts about the Ou family decades ago. Secretly investigate his family's health and discover the latent WXR9 virus. Long Yin funded a hospital to secretly research the virus and produce a vaccine against it. At this critical juncture, his vaccine has saved countless lives.
Long Yin announced to the public through the media that the epidemic was under control and life would soon return to normal. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Sun Zhuocheng walked out of the isolation ward. He was accompanied by a group of people who walked out of the hospital. They sighed for a long time, saw their acquaintances, greeted them lightly, and left in a hurry, anxious to report their safety to their relatives.
Sun Zhuocheng lingered at the gate of the hospital for a long time, and it was not until the last suspected patient walked out of the door that he sighed and turned to leave. He was admitted to the hospital with his whole family. Epidemic prevention personnel said that his family had been in contact with Eurasia many times and could not rule out the possibility of being infected. In the hospital, he never saw his family again. He was absolutely forbidden to move, and he never heard from his family. Now that he has been removed from quarantine, why is the rest of the family still not letting go? He didn't want to ask the people in the white coats. One by one, they covered their faces tightly with large masks, and when they spoke, their voices were as cold as ice picks and stabbed with blood.
He turned and walked towards his Chenghui Flower and Bird Pavilion. Sun Zhuocheng has not entered his flower and bird pavilion for nearly a month, and he has long since withered and neglected to come to his flower and bird pavilion, and the birds have died and gone. He saw from afar that his flower and bird pavilion was still wide open, and he couldn't help but be surprised, could it be that the flower and bird pavilion had been robbed? His surprise was even greater when he hurried into the Bird and Flower Pavilion. Everything is normal in the museum, but there are still three or four clerks busy.
When Wang Siqi saw Sun Zhuocheng, he hurriedly put down the watering can in his hand and walked over, and a series of greetings followed: "Brother-in-law, I'm finally back, thank God, I was scared to death, is Huifen okay?" ”
Sun Zhuocheng's face was full of confusion: "Why haven't you been quarantined?" ”
Wang Siqi said: "This is thanks to Zhan Mengying, she asked those white coats to leave the four of us, otherwise these flowers and birds will all be finished." We promise to eat and stay in the store and never leave a step! ”
"And they agreed?" Sun Zhuocheng felt a little unbelievable.
"Hmm. Ah, no, they did. ”
"Did you send anything?"
"I wanted to send a few small mirrors, but they wouldn't ask for them."
Zhan Mengying greeted Sun Zhuocheng, "Hello Boss Sun!" ”
"Everyone's worked hard!" Sun Zhuocheng was indescribably grateful in his heart. The lights in his shop were not turned on because he could not do business, but the flowers were still so bright and delicate, and the birds were still singing so crisply.
Sun Zhuocheng asked Wang Siqi: "Isn't it impossible to do business, how dare you open all the doors of the store?" ”
Wang Siqi said: "The sun is very good today, and I want to breathe fresh air into the store. I saw people coming out of the hospital on the street, and I thought that maybe the danger period had passed, so I had the courage to open the door. I'm so glad you came back after that. ”
Sun Zhuocheng asked: "Is there any news from the family?" ”
Wang Siqi said: "Not yet, probably coming back soon." This time it's thanks to Boss Longyinlong! ”
Sun Zhuocheng's body trembled, his eyes stared at Wang Siqi, and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”
Wang Siqi didn't seem to notice the boss's overreaction at all, and continued to say to himself: "You didn't hear it? It was the dragon who discovered the disease and saved us from the plague. ”
"Oh." Sun Zhuocheng answered casually and walked inside.
Wang Siqi followed and said, "I wanted to clean your room, but we couldn't open the door!" ”
"I don't have a key either, I don't seem to need a key!" Sun Zhuocheng said and entered the back hall. It's dimly lit, but it's neatly cleaned, and it looks like it's often cleaned. The mirror on the door of the boss's room was still there, but there was no light, and there was no human figure.
Wang Siqi said: "This mirror is so strange, you won't be able to see people after you leave." ”
"I've turned off the mirror function, so you women don't have to come here to look in the mirror if you have nothing to do!" There was obviously a dissatisfaction in Sun Zhuocheng's words.
Wang Siqi screamed: "Hey, brother-in-law, the conscience of heaven and earth, I haven't looked in the mirror a few times!" ”
Sun Zhuocheng glared at her, "I didn't say anything about you!" ”
"Who is it? You see, who often comes to look in the mirror? ”
"I guess, which of you doesn't look in the mirror anymore?" Sun Zhuocheng was distraught and pushed the door, and the door opened silently.
Wang Siqi's eyes widened in surprise, and he was about to enter the boss's room with Sun Zhuocheng, but was stopped by Sun Zhuocheng.
"You go back, I want to be alone for a while."
"Yes!" Wang Siqi quickly glanced at the boss room. Aside from the bird cages hanging here and there, little has changed in the boss's room.
Sun Zhuocheng closed the door and sat in his boss's chair. He couldn't guess what Long Yin wanted to do. In the ward, Long Yin talked to him alone.
Long Yin asked him, "I heard that Eurasia has been getting very close to you recently?" ”
Sun Zhuocheng honestly admitted: "He came to my store twice. ”
"Do what?"
"Install a mirror."
"Don't ask a word, say a word, tell the before and after Xiangxiang in detail!" Although Long Yin was wearing a large mask and couldn't see his face clearly, it was obvious from his bulging eyes and sharp voice that he was angry. Sun Zhuocheng thought to himself, I don't say these things, he also knows, if he is willing to listen, let him listen to it. Sun Zhuocheng then took his father-in-law on duty, Mao Shouyi delivered food, went into the warehouse and stole a piece of glass to go home, and was later discovered by Ouya, and Xiangxiang talked in detail about the father-in-law when he sent back the glass. Long Yin didn't even interrupt him once, listening to him finish his words. Fortunately, Sun Zhuocheng did not have the slightest intention to hide. After Sun Zhuocheng finished speaking, Long Yin's words softened: "Think about it, why did Eurasia suddenly install a big mirror for you?" ”
Sun Zhuocheng thought carefully for a while, and then replied: "He said that someone is eavesdropping on our conversation, and this mirror has the role of surveillance." ”
"How does he know someone is eavesdropping?"
"He said that two people went into the back hall and came out after a long time."
"Which two?"
Sun Zhuocheng's eyes widened in surprise, stared at Long Yin for a long time, and asked, "Is this about healing?" ”
Long Yin said calmly, "I wonder if Eurasia is lying. ”
"He said that Wang Siqi and Zhan Mengying had come in one after another, but it wasn't eavesdropping, and he wasn't sure."
"How did he know someone had come in?"
"He said he was told." Sun Zhuocheng asked, "Doctor Long, I haven't been infected by Eurasia, have I?" ”
Long Yin was stunned for a moment, and laughed, "It's the first time I've heard someone call me doctor. yes, what is it that I saved so many people and wasn't a doctor? Well, with your words, you will definitely be able to be discharged from the hospital first. ”
"Thank you so much, doctor!"
"When you go back, you can resume business immediately. In the future, if someone close to Eurasia comes to you, you must notify me as soon as possible, lest you accidentally get infected! ”
Long Yin was so happy that he took off his mask at once, and showed his goodwill to Sun Zhuocheng with a smile. Sun Zhuocheng was shocked into a cold sweat on a hot day.
