After a preliminary examination of the corpses inside the container, it was confirmed that almost all of the more than a dozen corpses were severely dehydrated, and thousands of milliliters of blood-water mixed liquid could be drawn from the abdominal cavity at one time.

The results of such an examination surprised the people present, and what was even more surprising was that this was not the end, originally after all the corpses were collected and the containers were disinfected, an autopsy report came out in the real room.

Mixtures such as inside corpses and feces contain large amounts of Escherichia coli, and those people die from bacterial infections!

Holding this report, Han Mingming frowned, "In other words, when these people were at sea, they might all have died?" ”

"Well, yes."

The person sent by the forensic office was a high-achieving student who had just graduated from Seoul National University, fair-skinned and extremely handsome, and several female police officers quietly watched him along the way.

"The matter is very strict, Inspector Han, I need you to report to a higher department immediately."

Gao Caisheng stared at Han Mingming without showing weakness and said, "This matter is very dangerous, I think this may not be a simple Escherichia coli infection." ”

"Oh? But your report ......"

Before Han Mingming could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gao Caisheng: "No, although further testing is needed to confirm my guess, if it is an ordinary bacterial infection, it will not cause people to die like this." What's more, even if it's an ordinary bacterial infection, have you done a good job of disinfection? ”

"Of course, I don't even have a little bit of common sense."

Han Mingzhi threw Wen Jiàn on the table, "Okay, you can go out first if you're fine." ”

"Wait, Superintendent Han, I've heard that. Didn't one of the stowaways survive and didn't find it? ”

"Who did you listen to?" Han wisely looked at the top student.

"Inspector Han, I advise you to find that stowaway as much as possible, otherwise it will ......"

Gao Caisheng shook his head and said to himself: "I hope I guessed wrong." ”

"Smack."

The door slammed shut, making an unpleasant creaking sound. Han Mingzhi sighed with a headache, these students from prestigious schools. doesn't handle things at all, and likes to put on a face for his boss.

Of course, Han Mingzhi chose to forget that he was also this kind of person at the moment.

Either way, the proud young man was right, he had to do everything he could to find the surviving stowaway.

……

……

"Toot ......"

In a residential neighborhood on the east side of Incheon, a car drove slowly, leaving several people in place.

Take a closer look, the leader of them is Jin Yuanzheng and several others, including the girl who is still in a high fever.

"Brother Yuan Zheng. It's a pretty good place. ”

The companion glanced left and right, excited, although the house here is not a luxury villa group, but it is also a small independent house, with little traffic, many trees, and the environment is very good.

"This is my family's old house, let's go. Let's go inside, let's hide from the limelight here for a few days. ”

Skillfully take out the key and open the door. Let a few people in the back follow him in, the old furniture and floor inside, it is really an old house.

Especially if it has been uninhabited for a long time, as soon as people walk in, they can smell the dust in the air, and even a few footprints can be stepped on the floor.

"Ahh Let's sit on our own. ”

Running over in a hurry, and didn't have time to bring any food, Jin Yuanzheng opened the refrigerator, looked at the emptiness inside, touched the back of his head and said, "Alas." It's been a long time since I've been back, waiting for me to go out and buy something. ”

"Alas, Brother Yuan Zheng, let's go together."

"No, I'll just be alone, you're strangers here after all, it's better to be careful."

Be careful, after experiencing yesterday's incident, Jin Yuanzheng felt that he must have made a mistake and omission in some link, so he was found by the police.

After making such a mistake, it is natural to be more cautious in the future, otherwise there will be no such a good chance to avoid the pursuit of the police again.

Alone with his wallet and going out, Jin Yuanzheng first found a pharmacy and bought some common cold and fever medicines, and then went to a nearby convenience store to buy some food and necessities, and slowly walked home.

"Huh, what's going on?"

Just when he was still more than a hundred meters away from home, a feeling of abdominal cramping and nausea came to his heart, which made Jin Yuan's forehand tremble, and suddenly his pocket spilled on the ground and rolled into a ball.

"Vomit ......"

The sudden severe pain and nausea made Jin Yuanzheng unbearable, and he fell to the ground and vomited.

Ten minutes later, an ambulance roared in, and several first responders pulled out the stretcher and lifted the unconscious Kim Won Jeong into the ambulance.

……

"Vomit ......"

Not only vomited, but Jin Yuanzheng, who was lying on the stretcher, was also incontinent, spilling all over the stretcher truck, and spraying some on the first responders.

"Quick, get out of the way!"

The "whoosh" stretcher kept rolling its wheels on the smooth floor, and the patients and doctors and nurses in the corridor avoided it, and Kim Won-jeong was quickly sent to the emergency room for rescue.

"The patient seems to be dying."

The electrocardiogram next to him had reached a heart rate of more than 130 beats per minute, and Jin Yuanzheng was losing his mind, and his mouth was still flowing with a brown mixture of liquid, and the water and electrolytes were completely confused.

"Quick, get on a ventilator immediately."

In view of the critical condition of the patient, the doctor immediately took measures to put the patient on a ventilator to ensure that the patient received oxygen, and at the same time corrected the acid-base balance, hemostasis, anti-infection data, and did a preliminary physical examination.

Soon, after the results of clinical examination and B-ultrasound examination, it was preliminarily concluded that the patient had a systemic bacterial infection, hypoproteinemia and liver damage, and a high fever.

However, the doctor who performed the treatment was very experienced and did not panic, so the assistant who was anxious on the side also calmed down.

According to the previous treatment methods, a series of comprehensive rescue measures such as heat preservation, multi-antibiotic intravenous infusion therapy, oxygen inhalation, and total intravenous nutrition support, it was not until three hours later, after the patient's condition was initially controlled, that the doctor breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the emergency room to take a little rest.

He was still waiting for a blood test in the real room to decide on the next course of treatment, but then again, bacterial infections like this are rare. At least in his memory, he had never seen such a bacterial infection.

Looking at the onset of the disease, it seems that in a short period of time, the bacteria show a sudden burst of proliferation...... This is an acute bacterial infection, and it doesn't look like it.

Maintaining this confusion, the doctor rested for a while with his eyes closed, and unconsciously fell into a deep sleep.

Working in the emergency room for a few hours required the doctor to concentrate and consume a lot of energy on the human body, so he sat down in a soft leather chair and fell asleep without noticing.

"Physician Xu, Physician Xu......"

In confusion, Dr. Xu woke up from his slumber, looked at the anxious nurse in front of him, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Doctor Xu, no, that patient ......"

Rushing to the emergency room, Dr. Xu looked at the results of the blood test and was surprised, "How can this be?" ”

Let's not talk about the results of the examination, just looking at the patient's external appearance, the situation is not optimistic. The condition that had been stable before was like a roller coaster passing the peak, and it was a rapid sprint downhill, faster and more terrifying.

RBC, HGB, and HCT are all in constant decline, respiratory failure, and further diarrhea with a large amount of blood-colored mixture, which is expected to be the result of hemorrhagic necrosis of the intestinal tract and massive bladder bleeding.

"Hoo ......"

Dr. Xu gasped and felt a little at a loss, but before he could do anything, the heartbeat of the ECG had already become a straight line.

"Dead, dead?"

Standing aside was an intern doctor who had just come out of college, and his mouth trembled when he saw the patient's tragic condition.

"Everyone, get ready."

Physician Xu's hands were also shaking imperceptibly, "Don't run around yet, notify the higher authorities, and prepare for disinfection and prevention of secondary infection, this should be NDM-1." ”

"What? Dr. Xu, this can't be, right? It's not written in the inspection report? ”

When a few people next to them heard the words NDM-1, they were almost so shocked that they sat on the ground, this metal-β-lactamase 1 superbug called New Delhi was terrifying, but they knew it very well. It was because they knew that they were terrified.

Dr. Seo shook his head and did not explain further, as one of the few doctors in Korea who was exposed to NDM-1 at that time, he had a bad feeling as soon as he saw the results of the blood tests. After seeing that multiple antibiotics were ineffective against patients, this speculation was confirmed to the greatest extent.

He hasn't given a more terrifying explanation to the people around him, that NDM-1 can easily jump from one bacterium to another, and that once NDM-1 binds to dangerous transmissible and infectious bacteria, it will be a multi-drug-resistant bacterium. This can be seen from the unprecedented complications in the patient, how terrible it is for this superbug.

"I hope it's still too late."

Dr. Xu told everyone to stay away from the patient's body first, thinking that all contacts of the patient should be immediately quarantined, and the ambulance and corridor should be disinfected a second time......

It's a pity that before his idea could be implemented, he got news from the outside that several people with the same condition were also sent to the emergency room of the hospital.

Dr. Xu's heart cooled suddenly.

……

……

Dr. Seo still relies on experience to guess here, but E. coli containing NDM-1 has been detected in blood samples collected from the corpses in containers in Incheon's professional biological laboratory.

What is frightening is that this E. coli carrying NDM-1 is not a well-known common species, but a bacterium that has developed a genetic mutation. (To be continued......)
