"According to the data of the General Administration of Communications in previous years, China's railways during the Spring Festival, the average single-day passenger volume, is 5.5 million passengers, this year's Spring Festival, started late, but the amount of sending is larger than in previous years, according to our estimates, 28 years to the present two days, at least 13 million passengers! Until now, millions of people are crammed into the railway. The person from the Social Investigation Division read a hastily sorted out form in a stiff tone.

Jia Zhongquan's face is very bad, even if he doesn't need to be reminded by experts from the epidemic prevention department, he can hear the clues from this astronomical number, if the Huanzhou virus can really spread through the air, then the current Chixian is a giant ship with a time bomb on its keel, and it is also sailing in the boundless sea, which may explode and sink at any time. The crowded carriages provide enough hosts for the virus, and the railway network extending in all directions has become an accelerator for the spread of the virus.

"Professor Zheng, do you have anything to add?" Once, Jia Zhongquan annoyed Zheng Bihuang to death, because this old madman was nagging about how terrifying the new virus was all day long, which made everyone unhappy, but he didn't expect that now, this old madman's "cranky thoughts" are becoming reality little by little.

"I hope to mislead the country!" Professor Zheng's tone was not without anger and pride. Angry, his bitter heart has been repeatedly regarded as nonsense, and proudly, Fang Xizhi is finally infamous and no longer qualified to fight him. Since ancient times, literati have been contemptuous of each other, Zheng Bihuang and Fang Xizhi have been sworn enemies since they were studying, their views often collide, and their published papers are often-for-tat, in short, the two have fought for a lifetime, winning and losing each other. If there is any difference between the two, it is that Fang Xizhi met a confidant, while Zheng Bihuang could only isolate himself from his peers, succumb to the infamous General Bureau of Investigation, and rely on the pitiful "charity" of the General Bureau to continue his career.

"I'm not here to listen to your quarrel, I'm here to ask, if there is really an extreme situation, can Haoshan's broken ground meet your research needs?"

When Zheng Bihuang heard this, he immediately took out a form from the folder on the table and handed it to Jia Zhongquan: "Mr. Jia, Hao Shan is honest, there is no laboratory. If you want to study viruses there, you have to make the following changes. ”

"What is this? B…… SL, what is this thing? Jia Zhongquan put on his reading glasses and frowned. Liu Xiaoyi, who was on the side, immediately explained to him that this is a biosafety level, and that the laboratory can only study what kind of virus can it meet if it meets what requirements, and the laboratory that Zheng Mihuang hopes to build is BSL-4, and the table he listed includes why it should be built, how it was built, what equipment is needed, and the quotation of the equipment. In fact, Zheng Bihuang also knew that Jia Zhongquan could not satisfy him, not to mention money, just time, the incubation period of the virus is four days, and a laboratory of the highest specification should be built within four days? It's impossible to think about.

Jia Zhongquan didn't dare to be interested in any of this, he had only one focus - money! So Liu Xiaoyi immediately helped him turn through the pages, and at the end of the table, he pointed out the total. Jia Zhongquan's expression changed from indifference to panic, and then from panic to doubt, and only after a long time did he say in a questioning tone: "Xiao Liu, did you forget to hit the decimal point?" ”

"Commissioner, here." Liu Xiaoyi immediately pointed out the decimal point at the very end, "There are too many numbers in front." ”

One, ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, thousand, one hundred thousand, million, million, million, billion...... 150 million! It's still dollars! Reading glasses silently slipped from the bridge of Jia Zhongquan's nose, smashed on the form, and then fell down the form to his knees.

"Take it away, take it away! As for it? Jia Zhongquan waved his hand annoyantly and motioned for Liu Xiaoyi to take away his glasses, "Old Professor Zheng, you didn't report the big number?" ”

"Mr. Jia, the price can be found on the Internet, and it can definitely stand up to verification."

"Three million at most!" Jia Zhongquan pushed the form back, and felt depressed in his heart: I want to have a little bit of 500 million, and if it is US dollars, I will get a Dongning councilor, and go to enjoy Qingfu, isn't it? I'm still here to do this?

Zheng Bihuang still wanted to argue, but when he looked up, he saw that Liu Xiaoyi was giving him a look, so he had no choice but to stop talking.

The door of the "knock knock" conference room was suddenly knocked on from the outside, Liu Xiaoyi opened the door and saw that it was a person from the confidential department, claiming that Director Xu had come with a warrant, Liu Xiaoyi took the fax and sent him away.

"Commissioner, this is Director Xu's warrant."

Jia Zhongquan took a look, his expression changed from annoyance to shock and finally to helplessness: "It seems that the big guy is going back to Haoshan with me again." ”

Everyone present was unhappy, what kind of place is Haoshan? In ancient times, the exiled prisoners were too far away, and it was not easy to get out, and now they want to go back? But the most unhappy thing is Director Xuan, who is sitting at the head of the right side - he is about to become a single commander, and now not only does not mention the supplement, but also continues to pump his people! So how can his work be carried out?

However, Jia Zhongquan didn't have the heart to understand Director Xuan's suffering, so he raised his head and glanced at Zheng Bihuang, who was sitting in second place on the left: "Old professor, you can pick and choose the affairs of the laboratory, and the rest will be talked about later." ”

According to Director Xu's instructions, the investigation offices of the General Investigation Bureau in various provinces were evacuated to the special bases of the five commissioners' offices, and the laboratories under the epidemic prevention department of the headquarters were also required to evacuate, and in order to minimize the risk of infection among the staff, all staff were required to immediately wear unused individually packaged medical masks wherever they were, and were not allowed to take public transportation to the office, but were instead picked up by the commuter buses of each investigation room.

"Teacher, such a centralized method, in case it ......" Leaving the corridor of the conference room, Wei Yilin asked Jia Zhongquan with a puzzled expression, because this kind of practice of gathering everyone together will not only cause the underground forces in many places to grow wildly due to the loss of suppression, but also if one of the people gathered is infected, it will be a big disaster for the entire base.

"There are some things that can only be gambled." Jia Zhongquan naturally knew what the student was thinking, so he didn't wait for Wei Yilin to finish speaking, he gave the answer, "The difference is only what your bet is." ”

Wei Yilin froze in place, cold sweat poured up on his forehead, and the teacher's words were like a spell, lingering in his ears: What is your bet? So what is the stake of the dragon shouyuan?

The sun gradually set westward, and the night rising from the East China Sea was like a gluttony with a bloody mouth, devouring the land little by little: three infected people were found in Yinggan Louyang, suspected to be one hundred and twenty-seven! Twenty-six infected people were found in the three places of Lanwen Road, and one hundred and three people are suspected to be there! Nineteen infected people and 211 suspected infected people were found in Hanzhou, Longzhong, and 57 infected people were found in six places in Qinyuan, and 1,259 people were suspected of being infected......

"Bang", "bang", "bang" bunches of fireworks, rising from the villages on both sides of the road, exploded next to Sirius, blooming blood red, "crackling", "crackling", a series of cannonballs were ignited, exploded, red confetti flew all over the sky, together with the fireworks, driving away the monster named "Nian". Strings of bright red lanterns are hung high, meaning festive and auspicious. The food of the three animals was respectfully placed at the door of the house, waiting for the ancestors who followed the voice; Three teas and five wines, waiting for the gods of the earth, people in this way, express their gratitude to the ancestors and gods for their protection and protection for a year.

That night was a time of celebration and wailing, a moment of juxtaposition and elegy. Jia Zhongquan turned off the radio that had no good words, put down the chair, put his coat on his body, and the sunroof of the commuter car was not closed, through it, he could see Sirius in the sky, the star that had not appeared for a long time, it was exceptionally bright tonight, and it seemed to be announcing to the world in a high-profile manner that it was the king of the night sky!

The wolf is bright, and he is fighting to the end.

Bai Yunlian didn't expect that what she only dared to think about when she was a student turned out to be a reality tonight - her crush called her. But Wei Yilin didn't come to talk to her about the pain of lovesickness, but to "torture" her.

Wei Yilin's first sentence was: "Is it okay in Yuanzhou?" ”

"Things? What's the matter? "Thanks to the Spring Festival, more than half of the three streets and six alleys in Yuanzhou are empty, and such a small population naturally greatly reduces the probability of large-scale transmission of severe diseases, and because Yuanzhou is an important town in China, it has been under the heavy care of Longshouyuan and down to Koshiko Pavilion (Yuanzhou Administrator's Office), so the number of infected people has been surprisingly in the single digits. Moreover, what Jia Zhongquan heard on the bureau channel, Bai Yunlian could not see it on the TV, so her understanding of the current situation still stayed on "everything is fine".

But Wei Yilin, who was on the other end of the phone, seemed to have lost interest in explaining, and asked again: "Has the commuter bus arrived?" ”

"No, I don't know what time it is, so I don't dare to sleep. Is something wrong? ”

Pigs? I'm just reacting now!

"Get your family ready." After speaking, Wei Yilin hurriedly hung up the phone.

"Hello? Feed? Feed! ”

"What?" Bai Yunlian pursed her lips and pressed the phone screen heavily in retaliation. She turned around from the window, and then the faint light of the street lamp not far away, looked at the living room in front of her, in the small living room, there were five or six pieces of furniture, the largest was a wooden sofa bed full of waste newspapers, toolboxes, incense candles and other things, and the second largest was a pull bed, the naughty Zhenzhen was lying on it looking at the sky and making hexagrams, he refused to go back to the study to sleep with his mother, and insisted on squeezing into the same bed with his sister. In this way, as soon as Bai Yunlian moved, he woke up.

"Sister, the leader is looking for you again?" Zhen Zhen got up with a grunt, "Mom's leader always likes to look for her mother at night." ”

"No, not the leader." Bai Yunlian smiled slightly, sat back on the pull bed, and sat side by side with Zhenzhen.

"Who's that?"

"Zhenzhen, if my sister tells you, my sister will be like my father back then, go to ......"

"I don't want it! I don't want you, I don't want you to leave me! Zhen Zhen's immature pupils were quickly occupied by fear, he covered Bai Yunlian's mouth with one hand, and kept beating her chest with the other, "Sister! No! ”

Silly brother, do I just want to leave you?

Bai Yunlian lit up the screen of her mobile phone, and flipped out the chat interface with Wei Yilin in the chat at any time, there was only one line of words "We are already friends, now we can start chatting~", she "clicked" a few words, but after thinking about it, she deleted it again, because she didn't know how to tell Wei Yilin, or rather, she knew that even if she told Wei Yilin, the other party couldn't help her, after all, who didn't have a scripture that was difficult to read?

Daddy, can you come back? Bai Yunlian raised her hazy eyes and looked out of the window with a "bang" sound, the sky gradually turning red - this was the prelude to the coming of the wind and rain.
