Chapter 12 The whole world has become like this.
"Leigh, what's wrong?" Komuro asked Miyamoto as he approached, and by the way, they looked in the direction she was looking.
On the wall of the office, there is a television. Now the TV is on, but there is no sound. Apparently the sound was turned off. Poison Island picked up the TV remote control at hand and turned up the sound a little louder. When they heard the sound on TV, everyone was surprised.
"In the face of frequent riots across the country, the government has begun to discuss emergency measures, but for the Self-Defense Forces to be dispatched to maintain law and order, both the government and the opposition parties... Poison Island picked up the remote control and changed the channel. "It is not clear that according to some estimates, there have been more than 10,000 victims in Saitama Prefecture, and the mayor has declared it an extraordinary situation at the moment..." Suddenly, there was a gunshot on the TV, and although the female reporter who was interviewing the scene was very scared, she was still dutifully reporting the current situation: "The shooting, the police finally fired, what did they shoot for?" Ah~~~ Impossible... Stay back... Help me! Ah~~~~~" The report was interrupted, and a moment before the interruption, all the people watching the channel saw that the deceased who had been carried to the stretcher and covered with a white cloth sat up again...
There was a second-long silence in the officeγγγγγγ The TV station turned the picture back to the studio, and a female anchor took a document from her colleague and looked at it and said, "It seems that something is wrong, now... Now turn back to the studio for you to report, according to intelligence, the outdoors is very dangerous at present, please do not go out as much as possible, after the broadcast resumes, will immediately let the reporter send back to the scene report. β
"Dong" Komuro angrily slammed his fist on the table, "Is that all?" Why is that all there is to it? β
"I'm afraid it will cause panic." Gao Cheng's seemed very calm, as if he was not surprised by this kind of time.
"Only now?" Miyamoto wondered.
"That's why it's like this." Gao Cheng pushed down his glasses. "Fear leads to chaos, and chaos leads to the collapse of order. Once the order collapses, how to fight the zombies that can move. Gao Cheng's expression was serious.
"Even if all the zombies can be eliminated in the end, the rioters are more terrible than the zombies, after all, these people are just leaders, even if they have weapons, they dare to release nuclear weapons against their own country. Unless the upper echelons of all countries reach an agreement, your nuclear bomb will be thrown to me here, and my family will be thrown to you. It's that simple. Feng Yue followed Gao Cheng's words and said something unacceptable.
At this time, there was a broadcast on TV again, but this time it was foreign "The current abnormal state has spread throughout the United States, and there is no possibility of control for the time being, the head of the US government has abandoned the White House, and it is scheduled to transfer government functions to sea aircraft carriers, for the transfer of announcements, there are rumors in the outside world that it is preparing for tactical nuclear weapons, and the current contact with Moscow has been interrupted, and a large fire broke out in Beijing, but it has been extinguished by the local fire organization within an hour, Locals claim to have seen a man who has created a lot of water out of thin air to help the fire fighting organization put out the fire, London is still maintaining a certain level of security, Paris and Rome are looting, the streets are under martial law, and the raccoon market, which is currently the worst of the situation, has cut off all information, and the countries are urgently convening a decision meeting... Seeing this, Poison Island turned off the TV.
"It's this kind of thing all over the world right now." Komuro felt that these things were too sudden.
"How could it be... I didn't have anything when I surfed the Internet in the morning. Hirano was also incredulous.
"I can't believe it." Miyamoto stroked his chest, and anyone could see the wavering in his eyes. She slowly stepped back behind the small room, and gently grabbed the corner of the small room's sleeve, "It has developed like this in just a few hours!" There must be a safe place, and it will be restored soon. That's right. There was a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
"Obviously impossible." Takashiro's language was like a bucket of cold water poured on Miyamoto's head.
"You don't have to say that." Komuro wants to maintain Miyamoto.
"It's a pandemic, what's the solution?" Takashiro replied.
βpandemicοΌοΌβ Shizuka's brows furrowed.
"It means an outbreak of infection, and the same disease is rampant all over the world."
"Something like the flu?" The small room doesn't understand very well.
"The Spanish flu of 1918 was exactly that. With more than 600 million infections and 50 million deaths, isn't there a recent uproar due to the new flu? β
"Maybe that's more like the Black Death in the 14th century." Shizuka thinks this is probably a more appropriate description.
"A third of people in Europe were killed at the time." Takashiro took Shizuka's words.
"How does that stop the spread of disease?" Komuro asked.
"Although there are many possibilities, the death of the person is almost the same. Because there are no more people to infect. Shizuka explained.
"But the dead will still move, and they will attack the living." Hirano said as he looked at the zombies dangling outside the window.
"That is, there is no reason to stop proliferation?" Poison Island also has a dignified face.
"By the way, the weather is getting hotter, and when the meat rots to the point that only the bones remain, maybe it won't move." Shizuka seemed to have thought of something.
"How long does it take to decay into bones." Poison Island asked.
"In the summer, it will be partially ossified in 20 days, and in the winter, it will take months. In short, it won't take long. Shizuka's idea is optimistic.
"I don't know if it's going to rot." Gao Cheng chimed in.
"What do you mean by that?" Komuro looked at Takajo.
"Walking around attacks the bodies of living people, which is beyond the scope of medical explanation. It's not going to rot all the time. Gao Cheng didn't seem to want that to happen either. But someone shattered everyone's hopes.
"It won't rot." Everyone looked at the sound. I saw Fengyue sitting there, and Minmi was also kneeling next to him, holding two bottles of mineral water in her hands. "They don't rot, and they're not infectious diseases."
"How is this possible? It's all spread to the whole world, isn't it an infectious disease? Ishii pushed his glasses in surprise.
"Ah, that's right. Remember what was reported in the news just now? β
"Just the news?" Komuro recalled.
"Didn't the news just mention a raccoon market that completely cut off information?"
"So what?" Gao Cheng looked very unhappy.
"These zombies came from there." Fengyue said. "This is a new type of virus that has been developed. It multiplies the body's functions, but at the same time destroys brain tissue, leaving only the instinct to eat, and the virus spreads through the bloodstream. The human body that becomes a zombie will rot, but it will not rot completely, and will remain at the point where it has just begun to decay. Only when the zombie is completely dead will the laws of nature reappear on the corpse. β
"Then get the news to the people in the leadership." Miyamoto said anxiously.
"Do you think you'll be fine if you tell them? Impossible, if you tell them, you will be put to death on a trumped-up charge. And, do you think they don't know about it? I just saw that a lot of things here have a red umbrella logo, and even this icon appeared in the news just now. β
"What's wrong with that sign?" Komuro wondered.
"It's the biggest company in the world, it's called Umbrella, and it's a company with industries that span all walks of life around the world." Gao Cheng gave the answer.
"And this virus was developed by Umbrella Company." Fengyue looked at everyone and said.
"You're saying that governments around the world actually know who is responsible for this time, but they can't do anything about them?"
"Yes, because the hand of the umbrella is stretched too long. So, if they're going to move the umbrella, there's a lot going on. Fengyue continued to explain, "Now that Raccoon City has completely lost contact, then it can only mean one thing, that is, there are no living people in that city anymore. Even if there are survivors, it won't be long before it's over. β
"Is there no way?" Ishii hopes to hear good news.
"Yes." Fengyue's words made everyone feel refreshed. "Since it is a virus, there will naturally be a corresponding vaccine, but this vaccine must be injected within half an hour of being bitten, and even if the vaccine is injected after half an hour, it will not work. And this kind of vaccine, ordinary people will definitely not have. Fengyue's words disappointed everyone.
"And... Fengyue's words made everyone raise their heads again, looking at him full of hope. "It's people who are born with antibodies. If you are infected with this virus, not only will you not become a zombie, but you will also awaken your superpowers. The hope of the people was dashed again.
"Okay, you all know, now let's get some rest. After all, if you don't have enough physical strength for a while, it can be very dangerous. Fengyue said, closing her eyes.
