Volume 1 Cataclysm Chapter 2 Influenza
A month later.
"Why did you get the seventh in this test?" Alberta was puzzled when she saw the rankings.
"Recently, I've been trying to refine a model, and I've spent a lot of energy." Mo Jue shrugged his shoulders.
"But this time the content is all the knowledge points that have been learned, right?" Ulland hits the nail on the head.
"Life is already so difficult, can this kind of thing save me some face?" Mo Xuan made a very decrepit expression.
At this time, two people walked into the classroom, Anna and Hamura.
"Yo, Hamura, you did well in the exam this time." Mo Xuan said hello.
"Barely tenth, you didn't catch up with you if you failed the exam, I'm very uncomfortable." Yumura came over and patted Mo Xuan's shoulder with a smile, "I really don't know how you people can learn so many things while still maintaining the state to learn the compulsory courses, what a pervert." ”
"Promise, I know you're not serious."
"To be too modest is to be hypocritical – yes, I don't really take it seriously. By the way, Xuanjun, please let me come out for a while. Hamura thought of something and motioned for Mo Xuan to go out with him.
"What's so mysterious, aren't you afraid that Anna will be jealous?" Alberta raised her eyebrows cheerfully, but Anna just smiled and didn't say anything.
The two came outside the door, and Yucun said to Mo Xuan: "What you told me to pay attention to, there are some results." ”
"How?"
"Have you seen the news lately?"
"Something to do with the flu?"
"That's right, and the severity of the flu area is related to the number of meteorites that fall."
"But the piece that fell on our side is not small, but it doesn't seem to be a problem."
"I don't know, maybe the radiation can't be isolated, but it's slowed down. Is Ling Zun still working overtime? ”
"Yes, it's still there, so it seems that the broken stone hasn't been salvaged yet? It shouldn't be, something so big, it's been a month and it's been a human dive. ”
"I don't know, anyway, this flu is quite serious, so be careful."
"Thank you for this time, I'll invite you to dinner when I come back."
"I don't have such a keen sense of observation, thanks to Anna."
"You husband and wife are of the same heart, the same." Mo Xuan teased.
Then the face of the majestic head of the kendo department turned a little red.
In the evening, Mo Xuan and Su Hao went to the park on a date, and the sky above Atlantis was very clear, and the bright Milky Way could be seen meandering at night.
Su Hao is a rare girl who has been interested in medicine since she was a child, the two are classmates, but they are not too enthusiastic at the beginning, and the reason why they know each other and love each other is because Mo Xuan was accidentally injured in a ball game, and Mo Xuan, who was lying on the ground, endured the pain and saw Su Hao who commanded his classmates to rescue him in an orderly manner, and suddenly felt very warm. It is said that strong stimulation is the key to opening the love valve, and it must be the so-called unpredictable love in the past life.
Two people snuggled on the bench in the hill park, Mo Ying looked at the original North Atlantic, the current Atlantis West Sea, and then looked at the brilliant sea of stars in the sky, not knowing whether he was just enjoying the silence or thinking about something else.
"You don't seem to be in good shape lately, what's wrong?" It was still Su Hao who opened his mouth first.
When Mo Xuan heard his girlfriend's words, she lowered her eyebrows, her lips opened slightly, but she suddenly didn't know whether to tell her or not, and she was a little entangled. After a while, he gave up, just said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, I encountered some complicated things, and it will be fine after a while." ”
"You've never asked me to help with anything." Her voice was understandably reproachful, after all, love is a matter that requires both parties to participate in each other's lives to the best of their ability.
Mo Xuan touched his girlfriend's hair with a smile and comforted: "It's enough for me to worry about some things by myself, if I tell you that I am also annoyed when I see you later, I will feel distressed." ”
Su Hao snorted and said, "But I will too," and then got up and said angrily, "It's not fun here, I'm going to have supper." Mo Xuan nodded with a faint smile and followed.
The night is still beautiful, the coastal city is still bustling, and the endless voices of people are still boiling.
There was little progress in research, and scientists from all over the world watched as meteorites turned into quicksand.
"It's disintegrating too fast, it's impossible. If it decays at this rate, how fucking big does it have to be? Melvin, the socially averse academic maniac, was watching the news when he suddenly burst into a foul mouth. In fact, he had been specially admitted to a major university a long time ago, but he turned down this seat, and now he regrets it a little, if he goes to that school, maybe he can get close to the meteorite fragments.
After another half a month, the flu began to appear in the city of Kesto, where Mo Xuan lived, and many civil activists began to organize demonstrations, roughly blaming the government for its poor behavior.
There are also fewer people in the school.
It seemed that all of a sudden, everyone became very irritable.
On this day, Hu De came to Mo Xuan's class to work together, and as soon as he entered the door, he talked endlessly.
"Why hasn't the school stopped? It's already so serious. "Hood doesn't seem to be in a good mood lately, and his grandfather has that weird disease.
"What were your grandfather's symptoms?" After listening to Hood's chatter, Su Hao tried to make some suggestions from a professional point of view.
"The muscles are stiff and feverish, but the mobility is strong." He frowned.
Mo Xuan muttered, "Muscles are stiff...... but he didn't say anything further, because it sounded like a dead man.
Su Hao didn't have a good way, so he could only try to say: "In traditional Chinese medicine, this should belong to dryness, take some medicine to clear heat and replenish qi, I'll give you a prescription for you to try." ”
Hood took the list, thanked him, and then left after a brief chat.
"Ah Yu didn't come to class......" Mo Xuan said to Su Hao with a frown.
"Xuanjun, I must remind you that this disease is very likely to be contagious, and there is no cure for it at present." Hamura in the back seat reminded him when he heard his string song and knew his Yaxing's words.
Mo Xuan sighed lightly, but still insisted: "No way, they are all friends, I still have to go and see." ”
"When are you going to go?" Alberta asked, turning her head.
Mo Xuan looked at her and seemed a little surprised. "You're going to go too?"
"We're academics."
"Good reason."
"Count me as one, but the queen plans to go, will the emperor go?" Cui Shengzhi laughed.
"He's not my boyfriend, you ask him yourself." Alberta rolled her eyes.
Mo Xuan learned the tone of Alberta and said, "You are lacking in ladylike upbringing. ”
"I'm not a lady in the first place."
"But if you go, he'll definitely go, right?" Choi Sung-ji gossiped again.
"Nope! Know! Road! ”
Su Hao waved his hand to interrupt everyone and asked a constructive question: "When are you going to go?" ”
"Just this Saturday." Hamura proposed.
There was no objection from others, so it was decided.
On Saturday, a group of people came to visit Holland at the central hospital in Kerto, but this time Hood, who loves everything, did not show up, and he needed to go home to take care of his grandfather.
On the hospital bed, Ulland's heart rate was very fast, but it did not reach a very frightening level, he was playing hanging water, often turning his body, and he looked very hot.
According to the latest regulations of the Health Bureau, all people infected with the flu must be quarantined for observation, and no one except the doctor is allowed to come into contact with the patient. Outside the glass window, the doctors and nurses in white coats had no leisure, Mo Xuan put the gifts and books to relieve boredom at the door, told the nurse to remember to bring them in to him, and then left.
"This asteroid is nothing short of a catastrophe for scientists on Earth." At the entrance of the hospital building, seeing the full parking lot and the crowd of visitors, Cui Shengzhi thought of the chain reaction after people found the meteorite, and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's the same with students." Omega is also saddened by the fact that he is training with less and less.
"It's really not normal for schools to stop classes." Hamura Masashi expressed the same opinion as Hood, his eyebrows were resolute, and although he was not particularly tall, he was still seen by others as a serious and dignified kendo chief.
Anna rarely took the initiative to speak: "Actually...... Since the discovery of the meteorite, my heart has ...... I've been uneasy. ”
Hamura stretched out his hand and hugged Anna and said softly, "Don't be afraid, there is me." "The way the kendo minister comforted his girlfriend made people feel safe.
Mo Xuan also quietly held Su Hao's hand, and Omega peeked at Alberta, but was ignored.
It was getting dark and dusk, and they didn't know that in the laboratories where meteorites were studied around the world, the meteorites were gradually turning into black sand and dust and were getting faster and faster.
Inside the office of the Legion of the Marine Corps of the West Sea Fleet of the Atlantis.
"I couldn't find it then, and I can't find it now." A scientist stood in front of Mo Jun.
Mo Jun is Mo Xuan's father, a middle-aged man with a square appearance, who was promoted very quickly, and before the age of forty-five, he was already one of the commanders of the Marine Corps in the West Sea Fleet.
He was of little help in such matters involving great expertise, but the orders from his superiors were that the Marines should always maintain at least Level 2 combat readiness until the problem was resolved, and directly command and protect the scientists assigned by the central government.
This is a routine report.
"Have you made any new discoveries?" In fact, Mo Jun didn't have much hope.
But the scientist surprised him and nodded: "Yes, we have found that although the sea water cannot block the radiation, it can slow it down, and this radiation prefers to move in the direction of the ocean current, and there are not many that escape from the surface of the sea." That's why we have a better flu situation here than in other places. ”
Mo Jun's brows stretched slightly, which was one of the few good news recently.
"But it's strange," he continued, but Mo Jun chuckled in his heart, and there was indeed a turning point in his heart, "because radiation is generally only deflected, but their orientation with the flow of liquid is not quite in line with existing knowledge, and they occasionally adjust their orientation." ”
"What's wrong with that?"
"Yes, it's a big problem, which means they may not be radioactive, but more like a living thing, and we haven't found a way to get rid of it yet."
"Isolate that sea?"
"Sir, we can't isolate this ...... Let's call him Radiation. ”
“…… Well, I'm going to write a report asking the government to stop all work that requires seawater, and hopefully you'll make a breakthrough soon. ”
"Yes, but I have to warn you at the end."
"Please."
"Although the number of escapes is small, there are always some, and the size of this meteorite is large, so maybe the situation in the city of Kerto is not as optimistic as imagined."
“…… I wonder why I couldn't find that meteorite. ”
"According to the results of the research of the central laboratory, although the thing is very dense, it will still look like a ...... when it falls into the water. Effervescent tablets like that. It doesn't dissolve as quickly, but at least it's much faster than in air. He paused and emphasized, "Many, many. ”
Mo Jun frowned.
"And ......," the scientist thought of one more thing, "Captain, summer is coming, and in China, it should be called the rainy season." ”
Mo Jun nodded, and then signaled that he could go, and after a while, he got up by the window and looked into the distance independently, like a majestic sculpture.
Sunday night.
"Is your grandfather feeling better?" Mo Xuan met Hood in the corridor and asked.
Hood seemed to be in a good mood, and said to Mo Xuan: "You Chinese medicine has something, my grandfather looks much better." ”
Mo Xuan smiled and said, "That's the best, I still remember your grandfather's roast suckling pig, I hope he can get better soon." ”
"No problem, I'll invite you to the house when he's well." Hood is a rare comparison.
"But I have a question, why didn't you take him to the hospital?" Mo Xuan asked.
"The old man is not in good health when he is old, the hospital is densely populated and all are sick, and he gets better more slowly when he goes to the hospital, and my personal doctor is a very famous doctor, who has published nearly ten SCI papers, if he can't do it, it is not of much use to go to the hospital."
"It's not that I have to rely on my family's vague Chinese medicine prescription." Mo Xuan suddenly began to his nose.
"Yes, yes, China NO.1." Hood rolled his eyes and almost turned his back on his breath.
In the days that followed, more and more people got the flu, and Gouland finally decided to suspend all classes except for the third grade and switch to independent study, but all students who showed symptoms had to go home for quarantine and observation, and the students who lived on campus started closed management, and the students complained for a while.
It's just that in Guland's classroom, there are still many people studying on their own every day, and their number is still about a quarter full.
It's been two months since the meteorite fell on Earth, and the newspapers attributed the flu to a mysterious alien virus, and the reason for the leak was actually related to the government.
Mo Xuan counted the time, and the scientists on TV said that in three months at most, the largest meteorite fragments would also turn into sand, and the time was almost up.
Suddenly, the church bells startled him.
I don't know if there is really another mutation, whether the Western saints who were tied to the cross will come down and save the world.
Father Mo Jun...... Still not home.
