Chapter 455: For the Tribe

Li Shaoyang pushed open the small door behind him, and saw the widow standing there with a smile, and he couldn't help but step forward and hold the girl's hand: "You left without saying a word last time, what trouble did you encounter this time?" ”

The widow's eyes fluttered, and she was rarely a little shy: "I'm really sorry for you, I know that you need me the most in Kyoto, but I really have something very important." ”

She said and took Li Shaoyang's hand: "Come, I'll introduce you to a few friends first." ”

In this spacious living room, the curtains were drawn tightly, the classic English fireplace was burning warm coals, and several black men sat on the floor, with iron plates in front of them, and some rice, boiled bananas, and so on.

The black people wrapped their rice in special leaves, and ate the fish in their hands, and when they saw the widow bringing people in, they all stood up, and the leader showed his white teeth and made a humming sound, which is a pronunciation peculiar to African tribes, and the widow said, "This is Pumoti, the prime minister of the tribe of the Rum Islands in Kenya." ”

Li Shaoyang was taken aback by her introduction, the prime minister of the Kenyan tribe in East Africa, what a big background.

He noticed that the Pumoti was dressed in a bright robe, but with straw sandals tied at his feet, and two gold earrings in the shape of bananas hanging from his ears, and he looked less like a "prime minister" than a circus performer.

However, Li Shaoyang still knows a little about the country of Kenya, mainly thanks to the opportunity to trade with the African Grand Wizard in the Borderlands last time, and he has studied the situation in Africa. As a sub-Saharan African country, Kenya is a country with a decent economy and good development. Compared to its neighbors, such as Uganda and Somalia, it is simply paradise.

The country is a one-party presidential system, but there are many tribes, especially in the archipelago near the Indian Ocean, where tribes are scattered and everywhere. Larger villages may consist of a dozen or so villages, with a population of no more than 2,000. As for the smaller ones, it may be a village, with dozens of people.

Li Shaoyang was still pondering, Pumoti walked over respectfully, shook hands with him in a very Western style, and said in standard English: "Thank you very much for coming to see us, we know that your time is very busy, fortunately, our Royal Highness the King is an old friend with you, so we have this opportunity to meet." ”

is different from what he imagined, Pumoti spoke elegantly and had an excellent demeanor, but Li Shaoyang was shocked by the "His Royal Highness the King" in his mouth: "Eh, who is your king?" ”

Pumoti turned to look at the widow suspiciously, and the widow coughed: "Hey, that's me, I'm their king." ”

……

The widow was embarrassed to explain that the last time she was on a mission in Africa, she had followed a group of Somali militants all the way to the Rum Islands tribe in Kenya, which was preparing to rob the tribe.

Since the widow caught up, she showed no mercy, and when the rum tribe was at its most critical, she killed more than 200 militants by herself, and the elders of the tribe were grateful to Dade, kept her, and finally elected her as the king of the united tribe. And Pumoti is the prime minister elected by the tribe, and when the widow is away, it is Pumoti who presides over the affairs of the tribe.

Li Shaoyang laughed when he heard it: "Why did you agree to be this king?" ”

The widow squirmed, "They were so enthusiastic that they made a bunch of children beg me on their knees, and I thought it was just a name anyway, and I didn't live there permanently, so I agreed." ”

Li Shaoyang Khan: "Then how big is this united tribe?" How many people? ”

The widow thought for a moment: "There are probably more than forty tribes in the Rum Islands, and when they are put together, there should be ten thousand people, but they are too scattered, mainly fishermen, farmers, and some miners and merchants. ”

Tens of thousands of people, forty tribal associations, Li Shaoyang couldn't help but pay attention to it: "In Africa, this is already a large tribal group, and you, the king, are really cheap." ”

The widow was distressed, "What a bargain, remember the pink diamond you gave me last time?" A few months ago, the tribe suffered a famine, and I gave them all the diamonds, which is a big loss. ”

Although she said this, Li Shaoyang felt her feelings for this tribe, otherwise the widow would not have traveled all the way to bring Pumoti to Xiangjiang to meet her.

"What's going on in the tribe? How can I help? Li Shaoyang asked.

The widow beckoned to Pumoti to come over: "Tell me about it." ”

Pumoti's dark face showed sadness: "Our tribe has been hit by the plague, and the United Nations rescue organization said that it was the Ebola virus from West Africa!" ”

Li Shaoyang was suddenly surprised: "Isn't it, hasn't Ebola in West Africa been controlled?" Moreover, the Kenyan government had set up a special epidemic inspection department the year before last, why did your tribe get infected? ”

Pumoti gritted his teeth and said: "We sent the best warriors of the tribe, searched the entire archipelago, and found a strange six-year-old boy, who was carrying the virus, and after questioning, the little boy said that a group of people kidnapped him and threw him into our tribe. ”

Li Shaoyang didn't speak, and the widow said in a deep voice: "I have already found out, this is someone doing biochemical experiments, deliberately spreading the virus in the tribe, and then observing the spread and destructive power of the virus." ”

"Have you found the person behind it?" Li Shaoyang asked.

The widow shook her head: "I haven't found it yet, but Pumoti and I found the leader of this biochemical team, and he ran away, we tracked it all the way, and chased it to Xiangjiang in one go, so I invited you to come." ”

What the! Li Shaoyang's whole body was shocked: "That guy has come to Xiangjiang, does he carry the source of the virus?" ”

The widow nodded heavily: "This person carries with him the source of the Ebola virus that can spread rapidly, and the virus strains that can be extracted and used as biological weapons can be easily transmitted through gases and liquids. ”

Pumoti also said on the side: "More than two hundred people in my tribe have been infected, the spread rate is very fast, and the incubation period is only a few hours, so we have to catch him as soon as possible, God forbid, I hope he has an antiviral antidote on him." ”

The widow's eyes were burning and she kept looking at Li Shaoyang.

Li Shaoyang knew in his heart, and immediately said: "As far as I know, there is no effective antibody to the Ebola virus, and at present, in the world, only my northern pharmaceutical industry has an antibody under development, which has passed clinical trials, but has not yet been mass-produced." ”

Pumoti suddenly became excited, he was born in a tribe, but he received an elite education in the West since he was a child, and graduated from the Royal College of Physicians in the United Kingdom, so he has a deep understanding of Ebola antibodies, and he knows the weight of Li Shaoyang's words very well.

Li Shaoyang said slowly: "The reason why I didn't produce it in large quantities is that this antibody has not passed the final experiment, and I can't be sure if there are any side effects, and it would have taken about half a year to do this work...... In the current situation, we can only take some risks first. ”

He lowered his head and thought for a moment: "The Ebola virus in your tribe must be a variant, and I don't know if my medicine is effective or not, so I will arrange a special plane to transport part of the stockpiled antibodies to you first, and I will arrange a medical team to cooperate." ”

Saying that, Li Shaoyang looked at the widow: "Let Pumoti take them, you stay, we have to get rid of the biochemical **** who fled to Xiangjiang." ”

It is both a compliment and an irony to claim to be the safest region in Asia, given that the police have never really dealt with a large-scale crisis scene over the years. For the biochemical ****, they can't deal with it at all, and the troops stationed in Xiang can't be easily dispatched, so the situation is urgent.

Li Shaoyang walked out of the house with the widow, and Pumoti used a satellite phone to contact the people of the tribe and prepare in advance.

But as soon as he walked out of the house, Edward nervously ran over and whispered, "Something's wrong!" ”

Li Shaoyang raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?" Who's in trouble? ”

Edward turned on the TV, and the Xiangjiang Phoenix News Station was broadcasting an emergency report.

"It is reported that the anti-water passenger procession clashed with five mainland women in the shopping area of the North Ring Road, and the scene is currently chaotic...... The camera could not capture the scene, and it is suspected that there is an anomaly that causes the signal to be lost in this area......"

There were only a few blurry pictures on the TV screen, and the entire Northern Loop area had been blocked, but all the electronic signals in the area had automatically failed, so no picture came out.

"It's Zhao Ling'er, only she has the ability to destroy the network and signal in a large area." Li Shaoyang said slowly.

The widow looked at the TV and frowned: "This is the largest demonstration against the mainland in Xiangjiang, didn't they go shopping, why did they clash with each other?" ”

Edward sighed: "Originally, the first objection to this parade was the inland sailors, they called them 'locusts', and if those ladies went crazy shopping, it was easy to anger the 'waste greens'. ”

Li Shaoyang was not in a hurry at all, let alone nervous, but asked curiously: "What is waste green?" ”

Edward smiled: "It is the 'waste youth' of Xiangjiang, they are the new generation of Xiangjiang, facing the rapid decline of Xiangjiang, and the rapid rise of China's domestic land, and under the pressure of employment and other aspects, resulting in psychological imbalance, doing nothing every day, so they are called waste youth." ”

Li Shaoyang smiled: "Interesting." ”

He didn't care about it, turned to the widow and said, "Let's go see Inspector Liu Jianming, he is my friend, and he has a close relationship with the Xiangjiang police and security department. ”

Edward behind him grabbed his head and said in surprise: "Big man, those ladies are all in conflict, don't you care?" What to do if there is danger? ”

"Dangerous?" Li Shaoyang smiled faintly: "It's indeed going to be very dangerous, but it's not them, it's those waste youths, pray for them, I hope you won't be tossed too miserably by Zhao Ling'er and them." ”
