Chapter 272: Operation White Coat
Gu Ji walked down the stairs to the ground.
A cramped "L" hallway, flanked by one fully enclosed room after another.
Based on his accumulated knowledge in the field of public health.
The biochemical laboratory of the Osan base has not yet reached the P4 level, at most it is the P3 level.
But these rooms in front of you are all equipped with metal electric doors, which have extremely high air tightness, and this electronic door is generally used in the negative pressure or positive pressure room of the P4 laboratory to store high-risk bacteria and viruses.
Gu Ji passed by a few rooms, and could even vaguely feel the slightest coolness seeping into it.
If the judgment is correct.
This basement was supposed to be the disposal area for chemical, biological and radioactive materials in the laboratories of the Osan base.
However, due to the explosion of the laboratory, the surface buildings were severely damaged.
Therefore, before the reconstruction, the military urgently transferred all the final research results, specimens and materials here.
Gu Ji also found that the "radioactive materials" label on one door had not been torn clean.
"To start sanitizing, I need a list of personnel from the underground laboratory for verification."
The basement was not big, Gu Ji walked to the end, turned around and began to direct Jiang Chengxun to carry out the disinfection work, and asked Bogard.
"Damn, what are you kidding? I can let you in, it's already the maximum, you still want the list, do you want me to give you the military secrets together? ”
Bogard snorted coldly.
Gu Ji did not quarrel with him, but asked Jiang Chengxun to start from the first room and sanitize them in turn, focusing on the rooms that Malfoy had been in contact with repeatedly for a long time.
As the electronic doors were opened in turn.
Zhang Shiyun was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, while staring at the beads of amazement, he picked up the notebook and began to handwrite the inquiry records of the laboratory personnel.
Gu Ji took the opportunity to quickly probe the situation inside.
It was evident that the explosion was so sudden that most of the documents salvaged in the room were scorched, and they were placed on the office floor one by one, piled up into a small mountain.
There are also rooms with low temperature control, which are like refrigerators when you walk in, and there are a large number of filing cabinets inside, on which are densely packed with test tubes full of specimens.
There was an entire cabinet full of blood samples.
Gu Ji noticed that the names marked on the test tubes, without exception, were all Koreans, if he guessed correctly, there was a high probability that they were Korean soldiers at the Osan base.
"Ahh
Zhang Shiyun was just about to lead people into the room at the corner of the "L" corridor, but the medical staff responsible for sanitizing suddenly began to retreat and shouted.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Ji walked up to him.
The sanitizer pointed to the cabinet in the house, and his arm trembled uncontrollably, "Virus, virus, all of them are viruses and bacteria!" ”
Gu Jigang wanted to step in.
But was stopped by the sanitized officer, "Don't go in, there are anthrax bacillus here, and Guanarido virus, this is a fourth-level biological virulence virus, once infected, the lethality rate is extremely high!" ”
As a professional CDC health care provider, he naturally understands the horrors of these viruses.
Although they are wearing fully enclosed positive pressure protective clothing, it is only a level 3 standard, and the real level 4 virus can only be stored in a laboratory with a biosafety level of P4, and the whole process of storage and disposal requires wearing a level 4 protective clothing to operate.
This kind of protective clothing is not only thicker, but also specially equipped with a separate supply pipe, which does not have a trace of active air circulation with the outside world, and completely relies on a set of nutrient circulation in the laboratory for independent oxygen supply.
In the distance, Bogard couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene, as if he was mocking the Korean CDC for being too timid.
"It's fine."
Gu Ji gently patted off the arm of the sanitizer.
Even Bogard and the experimenters in the basement are not equipped with Level 4 protective clothing, which means that there is no such danger here, after all, the front-line experimenters must be the most concerned about their own life safety.
Step into the microbial disposal room.
As the sanitizer said, there are a large number of bacterial and viral specimens, in addition to Anthracnose, yellow fever, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, brucellosis and filariasis.
There are also translucent incubators with different species of insects.
This is to breed viruses transmitted by insects and conduct specialized biological warfare experiments.
Gu Ji vaguely remembers that the United States once released a large number of mosquitoes carrying the yellow fever virus in Vietnam, and North Korea also airdropped spiders, mice, fleas and other creatures to carry a large number of virulent viruses.
"Okay, just leave the laboratory in the corner to me and Zhang Shiyun in charge."
Gu Ji knew in his heart, and he was worried that he didn't have a chance.
Seeing that the sanitized officer was afraid of being infected by these virulent viruses, he took away the disinfectant back bucket and sprinkler on his body, "Jiang Chengxun, after all areas are sanitized, outsiders are not allowed to enter within 15 minutes!" ”
"Understood."
Kang Sung-hoon drove the laboratory personnel out of the basement after the questioning.
Bogard watched Gu Ji walk into the corner, although his face was grim, but he glanced at the camera on the roof of the shed, and didn't say anything.
Gu Ji turned into the corner.
Only the last three rooms in the hallway remained.
He called out all the people in the room, and there were five of them.
One of them, a tall, somewhat balding, middle-aged professor with a hooked nose, was the current temporary head of the lab, and the one who had the most contact with Malfoy.
Gu Ji asked Zhang Shiyun to ask about the epidemiological history and activity trajectory of several people.
and prepared to drive out the five of them.
But Professor Hooknose glanced at his office and sternly refused.
"Why let me leave, you are completely wasting your time by doing this, our laboratory is sanitized according to the strictest standards every day, and it is impossible to leave the MERS virus at all."
"If the standards are so strict, why would the laboratory still operate and explode improperly?"
"You ......"
In the face of the other party's difficulties, Gu Ji only used one sentence, and he was speechless.
After a few people left, there were only two people left, Gu Ji and Zhang Shiyun, in the entire corner corridor.
He glanced at the star camera on the wall, gave Zhang Shiyun a look, and asked the kid to help keep guard.
The latter immediately understood.
Because in Zhang Shiyun's eyes, he thinks that "Kim Ji-gyu" is investigating the explosion of the Osan base.
But for Gu Ji, investigating the bombing is only one of them, and looking for these "black technology research results" and clues about the attackers is the most important thing.
Wait for Zhang Shiyun to borrow his body and spray to cover the probe.
Gu Ji decisively threw out the ERC information jammer from his wrist.
Through protective gloves, quietly press the button.
That's right.
With this thing, within 20 seconds, all the electronic monitoring equipment within 50 meters around him will be covered by AI intelligence, and his real body will be "electronic stealth", and it is impossible for the military to find him.
In about 0.8 seconds, the jammer starts working.
Time was pressing, and Gu Ji rushed into Professor Hooknose's office first.
As soon as he stepped through the door, he immediately noticed the spherical surveillance probe in the room.
Really.
Without the ERC jammer, it would have been impossible for him to search for information in such a tightly guarded underground laboratory.
18 seconds.
Gu Ji's eyes looked around, like two lightning bolts, quickly slicing through every detail of the room.
The furnishings in the room, like the rest of the room, were a mess, with boxes and boxes of folders scattered all over the floor.
There is a large desk near the innermost corner.
There were computers and papers on the table, as well as a microscope.
Gu Ji hurriedly rushed to the desk, but unfortunately the computer was locked, he didn't know the password, and the cabinets under the desk were also physically locked and couldn't be opened.
There are only 15 seconds left.
He can only prioritize browsing folders on his desktop.
"The Hill Report", "Osan Blood Project", "UP-8 Hantavirus Project", "Operation White Coat" ......"
Gu Ji swept the folder names one by one and quickly pulled out the second copy.
Then he read books at the fastest speed in his life, like the "quantum reading" spoofed on the Internet before, and browsed quickly.
With this speed of page turning, it is impossible to remember what is next.
Fortunately, he has been constantly strengthening the central nervous system, and his instantaneous memory is far beyond ordinary people, and some key words, sentences and experimental data have been spliced together one by one under the logical combing of his brain.
"Blood samples from 959 South Korean Air Force and Army soldiers who have undergone MERS screening at Osan base have observed the susceptibility of East Asians to the Cov respiratory virus......"
This, this is being studied......
Genetic Weapons!!
The first reaction in Gu Ji's mind was it.
Genetic weapons belong to the third generation of biological warfare agents, and they are the latest biological warfare agents at present.
It can use genetic engineering technology to insert genes that can resist drugs into some disease-causing bacteria or viruses, or insert disease-causing genes into some microorganisms that would otherwise not cause disease to make biological weapons.
But the most terrifying thing about it is that it takes advantage of the differences in human genetic and biochemical characteristics to make a certain pathogenic bacterium only have a pathogenic effect on people with specific genetic characteristics.
Translated in the vernacular.
Once the Osan laboratory has developed a respiratory virus that East Asia is susceptible to, it can spread wildly in South Korea and other East Asian regions, and this virus has no effect on Europe, America, the Middle East, Africa and other regions.
It's only for East Asia!
It's really horrible.
Unexpectedly, in 2015, the United States began to study such a terrifying thing.
Gu Ji only felt a chill down his spine.
It is no wonder that the military has taken such a tough attitude and has to transfer "Kim Chanwoo" back, the purpose of which is to better study why MERS suddenly broke out in South Korea on such a large scale.
Even, the 5 infections in the hospital, will they all be done by the laboratory?
8 seconds.
Gu Ji didn't dare, and he didn't have time to continue to think deeply.
Among the rest of the documents, he immediately caught "Operation White Coat".
This is a continuation of the Cold War-era CD-22 program in the United States, which appears to be researching a particularly deadly virus that originates from a 130-ton giant steel ball called the "Eighth Ball".
Operation White Coat is nominally a virus defense program implemented by the U.S. military in conjunction with many countries, and its specific content is to recruit soldiers and force them to voluntarily join volunteers and act as guinea pigs by exerting pressure.
There are too many details, and Gu Ji didn't see them all.
And by this time, there was already a violent vibration in his wrist.
Not only that, but Zhang Shiyun's coughing sound was also heard outside the corridor.
4 seconds;
3 seconds;
……
Gu Jiqiang endured his curiosity, put the documents back in place, stepped over the pile of documents with an arrow step, and rushed out of the laboratory at the last moment.
The next second, Bogard walked over with another of his men armed with a gun.
Zhang Shiyun "has a weak heart to be a thief", and immediately lowered his head to hide the panic caused by his rapid heartbeat.
And Gu Ji is like a normal person, pressing the spray gun and sanitizing the office combination lock, handle and other positions.
"Lieutenant Colonel, didn't I say you can't come in for 15 minutes?"
Zhang Shiyun was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Gu Ji to be so arrogant and dare to question Bogard first.
In fact, Gu Ji is well aware of the abilities of game items.
The ERC information jammer is a blue level, one level higher than the [Poison Needle Trap] mine, under its cover, not to mention a small Osan laboratory, even if it is the Pentagon, he will also be able to break through!
Bogard glanced at the innermost office.
Seeing that there was nothing abnormal, he said coldly: "The control center just said that the two of you have been gathering together, let me come over and take a look, you better move quickly, the room here is full of important specimens." ”
"Alright, the farther away you are, the faster we'll move!" Gu Ji said casually, and even aimed the spray gun directly at Bogard.
"Fack! You! Bogard yelled, almost raising his gun.
Soon, the sanitizing work was completed.
Gu Ji also took the CDC and police station officers, and withdrew from the Osan base under the cover of the special car of the chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense.
Along the way, he pondered the two documents in the lab.
Especially in "Operation White Coat", what is the "eighth ball" mentioned in it?
I didn't have to wait long to think about it.
His mobile phone vibrate, and without even thinking about it, it must be the phone of Lee Hyun-jeong, the head of the secretary's office.
"The investigation is over?"
"It's just over."
"You're going to come to the Blue House right away."
"Okay."
Gu had already guessed that there would definitely be such a step.
Because the Osan base is too deeply involved, it is not only the MERS incident, but also the United States and South Korea.
He followed the special car of the chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense all the way to the Blue House.
Located on the outskirts of Seoul, the Blue House was originally the Imperial Palace of the Goryeo Dynasty, built on a hill and flanked by pleasing greenery on both sides, with three classical aqua blue tiled buildings in the center.
Compared with the presidential palace of India, the Blue House is more elegant and quiet.
As soon as Gu Ji entered the lobby, he was ushered into the secretary's room by the secretary.
With a red wool carpet and a huge desk, Lee Hyun-jung, dressed in a dark gray suit, sits in the back to record documents.
When he heard footsteps, he looked up.
A pair of eyes are like CT scanners, taking a picture of Gu Ji inside and out.
"Tell me, what you found at the Osan base."
Tomorrow concludes this volume.
