Chapter 117: Heat Flow in Silence
Norton also knew that his subordinates would not make such jokes casually, and he did not hang up the phone, so he immediately sat up straight and opened the mailbox in front of the computer.
The content of the email is basically all video materials, and there are voice-over explanations on the side, or it should be the voice records of experimenters and medical staff.
"The first case confirmed that the time of death was around 2 p.m. on the third day after being taken to the hospital, and we obtained the consent of the family to perform an autopsy on the patient's body. ”
Then the video continues to be recorded in the dissection.
"Oh my God, he had severe burns to his chest, lungs and airways, and a small part of his lungs showed signs of burning, and I can't imagine what the patient was going through!"
The lungs were removed directly, and other organs were examined one after another.
Dr. Aven, the medical expert who first discovered the peculiarity of this disease, made a timely and efficient follow-up response, so that the second patient has maintained stable vital signs to this day. ”
After this episode, the autopsy has removed all the thoracic organs next to the lungs in the deceased's body.
"We found that in addition to the severe lung injury, the deceased also had some damage to other organs, but this was basically in the category of passive burns at the edges, rather than spontaneous fever like the lungs. ”
This is the end of the dissection, and some specimen studies and virus analysis are also carried out.
"At present, it is basically confirmed that this pulmonary fever is not contagious, and there is no sign of spreading or metastasis to other parts of the body, but the cause of its disease is still a mystery. ”
Norton's brow furrowed, and he continued to click on a few other videos.
"People from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with the cooperation of the St. Louis police, quarantined the Bevo community today, and asked more than 10,000 citizens in the community to evacuate first. ”
It was a recording of a journalist with a rather noisy background.
However, most of the people on the video screen are police, there are not many people at the CDC, and there seem to be a lot of angry people on the community side.
"We're American citizens! We have our rights, so why should we leave our home?"
"We refuse to leave!"
"Yes!
。。。
Seeing this small-scale riot of resistance, Norton couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his forehead and nose even at the end of the video.
Democracy is used in this kind of place by this group of people ... ’
Although it cannot be said that I do not understand the feelings of the people, it is inevitable that I will be irritated by this kind of behavior that hinders the correct actions of the government.
Directly changed a video.
This time it was an environmental survey by a research team, and the site was in a fast-building isolation shed, which was supposed to be the building of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Is the air normal?"
"The air composition is normal, but the fungus environment doesn't seem to be right, and some fungi or viruses that prefer low temperatures and humidity have been greatly reduced. ”
Norton tensed up and put the video in full screen before continuing to play.
"Could it be an isolated phenomenon? or is it a seasonal reason?"
"No, after stumbling upon it, I took samples from 12 different locations in the community, and all of them were in some areas where mold can easily grow, but the results were very different from other normal environments. ”
"It should be said that the mold in these places is almost extinct!"
One of the researchers in the video has a distinctly serious voice.
"Is it all the places, or is it just the places where the patients are present?"
"I'm sure it's all locations!"
There is a brief video pause in it, I don't know if it is to stop recording or something else, and when the video continues, you can see that two hours have passed in the upper corner of the video.
After a period of busyness that Norton couldn't understand the process, it was still that serious voice.
"Notify the CDC immediately, recommend, no, that all people in Bevo be evacuated!"
This is the end of the video, and presumably the cause of the evacuation video is also because of this.
So far, it has been possible to classify the event as an unknown disease, and it is not so special that it can directly establish a mutation event.
But I have a hunch that this kind of thing is sometimes so annoying.
That's how Norton is now, there's a voice inside him that keeps telling himself, this is the anomaly, absolutely!
And this time the incident is probably more intractable than ever.
Not only because the type is unknown, but also because of the large scope and high population density this time, it is quite difficult to keep the work confidential or deal with it.
The responsibility is on your shoulders, and you can't pretend to be stupid.
So in a short time, the 19th Organization Department mobilized again, and Norton even hesitated whether to transfer the "Eagles" back, but he still restrained himself.
。。。
Outside the St. Louis Bevo district, Josephine of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was suddenly notified last night that she was no longer the head of the area.
In the morning, with a slight anger in her heart, she drove to the scene.
'What's going on?'
The quarantine lockdown is much stronger than yesterday, and the police, who were originally on the front line, have now retreated to the periphery, and armed forces have appeared inside, not so much the National Guard, but more like the US Army.
Josephine got out of the car and walked outside the newly marked cordon and was stopped by two soldiers armed with rifles.
"Hey, I'm Dr. Josephine from the CDC, and I'm going in. ”
After showing her ID, one of the GIs asked for instructions in the intercom before leading her into the cordon.
"Hello, I'm Anthony from the 19th Organization Department, and from now on, we're in charge of it, and the CDC will cooperate with us. ”
This was the answer of some young man after seeing Josephine.
The Nineteenth Organization Department?
Josephine is a person with a certain level within the CDC, and she has heard of this mysterious department, and often once things involve that department, it will not be as simple as it seems.
She didn't resist anymore, showed considerable cooperation, and was very open to report on the previous work with other colleagues.
When Norton arrived, everything seemed in order.
'But that's not enough!'
This hunch haunted Norton.
For three days, the army searched the entire emptied community for three days.
There are no mutant creatures, no special dangers, no one is sick, and it seems that the Bevo community is completely safe?
There was one person who had a stronger ominous premonition than Norton, and that was Jenny.
Her aunt was a devout Catholic and lived in St. Louis all the time.
Since she was a child, her aunt loved Jenny very much and regarded her as her daughter, so Jenny would visit her aunt in St. Louis many times a year.
But this time, when she happened to pass by Bevo, she felt that something was wrong!
The Mentor's magic has always been silent and immovable, but almost the moment the taxi passed by the community of Bevo, it spontaneously became irritable, and it spread directly to the skin, completely enveloping Jenny.
A burning sensation came from outside the magic, and at the same time there was a strong sense of crisis.
Jenny, who was in the taxi, forced herself to calm herself down and glanced at the blockade visible from the taxi window.
"Mr. Driver, what's going on over there?"
The driver is a black uncle, and the question of Jenny has actually been discussed for a long time in their rental circle recently.
"It was the Bevo district, and it was said that there could be a hidden danger of toxic substances that would cause a disease, and although it was isolated, from the CDC press conference, the disease itself was not contagious, and it should just be a physiological reaction caused by an unknown toxin. ”
"But there seem to be a lot more people over there today, and the National Guard has been dispatched?"
The hairs on Jenny's body were standing up one by one, and in a short period of time, the sense of crisis of the magic feedback continued to rise.
She looked up at the sky, her pupils narrowing.
A feeling like the scorching air on the side of the highway on a hot summer day is permeating the air in bursts, and it seems to contain some kind of pattern!
Almost resisting the thought of immediately turning the driver away, she continued to sit in the car, taking deep breaths and silently reciting the oath of the Silent Knight.
My aunt's house is near the Bevo district, and she has to convince her to leave!
PS: Chapter 1/3.
Here I want to apologize, because the starting point writer can't see the background, so I didn't pay attention to the book friends over there in the creation and book city before, although there are not many collections, but there are friends who have been supporting this book, thank you very much!
