"Boom ......"
The noise of the helicopter echoed wildly in the sky.
On the way to the White House, Swift looked at the information about the virus in his hand and used the communication equipment on the helicopter to make a phone call.
"Admiral Swift?"
The phone was connected, and a voice came from the pair of super-closed headphones on his head.
"It's me, Mr. President."
Swift's face was solemn, and he opened his mouth and said, "I'm rushing to the White House at full speed right now, and I need to see you in person." ”
"What's the matter?"
The president asked.
"About the outbreak of the viral plague in eastern Portland."
Swift said in a heavy tone.
"I'm having a headache over this plague event, what did you find over there?"
The president asked.
"When I get to the White House, I'll give you a detailed debriefing."
Swift said.
"Okay."
The president answered and hung up.
Taking off the headphones, Swift bit his teeth slightly, and a look of extreme complexity appeared on his face.
Although the study of super soldiers is an order given by the president himself.
However, the plague caused by the research of super soldiers was something that no one expected, even if Huaxia had sent an early warning document in advance, Swift was confident that there would never be a situation where super soldiers would mutate and spread into a plague.
But in front of him, this kind of plague, which is insignificant in his eyes and in the eyes of major researchers, has become a reality.
No doubt.
It was undoubtedly a great mistake for him not to report to the president and to speed up his research, knowing that the plague might spread.
You know, the consequences of this plague are something he can't afford to bear.
If it is revealed that the source of the plague is a super soldier, then he will face accusations and abuse from everyone in the United States.
The United States is a liberal democracy.
If such a big incident cannot be controlled, he must give an explanation to the whole people.
Swift shuddered at the thought of his mistake and the danger of the plague that had plunged his country into the plague.
Soon.
Helicopters came within the White House bounds.
After layers of security checks and vetting, the helicopter finally landed on the huge lawn of the White House Garden, and finally under the determination of the president.
"Click."
Pulling open the door, Swift looked solemn and hurriedly ran into the White House with the materials.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
After being notified by the president's assistant by phone, Swift knocked on the door of the president's office, and pushed the door directly.
"President Taylor."
As soon as he entered, Swift immediately walked to the president's desk.
Ahead.
At the desk, with the large bulletproof glass window as the background, sits a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a black suit and white shirt, with a black bow tie tied around his neck, and slightly curly hair neatly combed back to his head.
This person is the current president of the United States, John Taylor.
"General Swift."
President Taylor, who was looking at the information documents, raised his head slightly, his face was a little solemn, but his tone opened his mouth without waves: "Please take a seat." ”
"President."
Swift raised his eyebrows and said, "I think it is necessary for us to convene an emergency meeting for this sudden outbreak of the plague to determine the virus and isolation methods of the plague, as well as the development of an antidote. ”
"Yes, I have an arrangement."
The president nodded.
Closing the papers on the desk, he got up and said, "Follow me to the conference room." ”
With that, step out.
The presidential aide followed.
Swift did not dare to hesitate, and immediately followed behind the president and rushed towards the conference room of the White House.
White House conference room.
This is a conference room made entirely of warm wood, and the whole room is furnished and constructed to look like an ordinary courthouse.
At the top, there is a semi-circular table with an American flag on it.
Behind it is a wooden chair.
On the right side of the room, there is a small fence with 12 wooden chairs.
In the center, there are two separate tables, each equipped with two wooden chairs, behind which are several rows of benches like a courtroom, separated from the benches on the left and right sides, separated by a path facing the door of the conference room.
Come to the conference room.
President Taylor, without question, walked straight to the rostrum and sat down.
Follow it.
As soon as Swift entered the door, he saw that the entire conference room was already full of various interior ministers, including some experts and scholars.
Don't hesitate.
Swift walked to the front and sat down at the wooden table closest to the president.
"The meeting begins."
As the president spoke, the door to the conference room was tightly closed.
"Everyone is well aware that the recent outbreak of the plague in Portland has seriously threatened the security of our country and its citizens."
Taylor glanced at the people in the conference room and opened his mouth to say, "For today's emergency meeting, I need everyone here to give some good enough advice. ”
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone in the conference room immediately expressed their opinions and put forward various suggestions and measures.
"General Swift?"
As everyone scrambled to speak, President Taylor suddenly shouted and said, "You are the center of this meeting, let me tell you what you think first." ”
"Yes."
Swift stood up, raised the information in his hand, and opened his mouth to say: "This is all the information on this plague virus, and in order to express my opinion, I apply for a research evaluation of this plague virus by the White House research department." ”
The president immediately agreed.
Soon.
The results of the assessment are in.
"Mr. President, after evaluation, the plague virus that broke out in Portland this time has completely surpassed SARS in terms of destructiveness!"
An evaluator announces the results.
The words fell.
Everyone in the conference room immediately couldn't help but gasp.
More destructive than SARS?
How can it be so scary?
If this plague broke out completely, wouldn't it be able to destroy a country?
At this moment, everyone dared not speak.
"What the hell is going on with this plague event, how did it suddenly break out?"
The Minister of Defense couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up and looked at the president and asked.
"This news must be blocked immediately."
The president did not reply, but immediately ordered: "The entire region of the United States, only entry and exit are allowed, the National Science and Technology Research Center, the Epidemic Prevention Center, must develop an antidote in the fastest time, and if the epidemic spreads, immediately lock down the entire state where Portland is located!" ”
The order is given, and everyone executes it at once.
The discussion continued.
At the end of the meeting, President Taylor opened his mouth and ordered: "All news about the plague must be sealed off in the country, and no one shall leak it!" ”
With that, the meeting ends.
Back in the president's office.
"General Swift?"
As soon as he arrived at the office, the president immediately opened his mouth and asked: "The location of the plague outbreak is within the jurisdiction of your military restricted area, what is going on in this matter, you must give me an answer?" ”
"Mr. President."
Swift gritted his teeth and hesitated for a while before he walked up to the president and whispered, "The results have come out, the source of the plague this time is caused by the super soldier studying the mutation of nucleic acid in the body." ”
"What?"
The president was shocked.
"At the moment, the military exclusion zone is not infected by the plague."
Swift said.
"What the hell is going on here?"
The president asked.
"A month ago, a half-finished super-soldier escaped from the military exclusion zone and was eventually annihilated in the small town of San Simons."
Swift said with an ugly face: "And after investigation, the small town of St. Simons is the source of this plague outbreak. ”
"Is there such a thing?"
The president was immediately furious and said: "You have a military base, and you can't control a half-finished super soldier? ”
Swift's face turned pale.
He knew that it was indeed his responsibility.
No matter what he does, he can't hide.
"Anyway, you'll have to take care of this for me."
With an angry face on his face, the president slapped it on the desk and opened his mouth to say: "Otherwise, you will wait to give an explanation to the entire American people!" ”
Hearing this, Swift's face became even more ugly.
Even so, though.
After thinking about it for a long time, Swift couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "Actually, there is another thing that I haven't reported to you. ”
"What's the matter?"
The president's eyes widened.
"A month before the outbreak of the plague, an early warning document was sent from the subordinate side, and I was informed in advance that the research of the super soldiers is likely to lead to the emergence and spread of this plague."
Speaking of this, Swift couldn't help but lower his arrogant head, not daring to look at the president.
"Huaxia?"
President Taylor was taken aback and opened his mouth to ask, "How would they know?" Could it be that the secrets of the research super-soldiers have been leaked? ”
"This ......"
Swift hesitated for a moment with an embarrassed face before opening his mouth and said: "Before, when the super soldier was just successfully developed, he was hunted and killed by that agent in Huaxia, Du Zhong, so he ......."
Hear the words.
President Taylor's face instantly turned red.
"That's what you did?"
A roar of rage came from the mouth of President Taylor.
Swift didn't even dare to say a word.
"No wonder you want to kill Du Zhong at all costs!"
In a fit of rage, President Taylor took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart before he opened his mouth and said, "This matter must not be spread outside." ”
"Yes."
Swift Heads should be.
"What if you know?"
President Taylor took a deep breath and opened his mouth to say, "There may not be any way over there. ”
Swift nodded in agreement.
"Before the plague is discovered in Huaxia, let me solve this matter completely, and talk about the rest later."
The president squinted.
"Guaranteed solution!"
Swift jerked up straight and gave a military salute to the president.
