Chapter 574: Self-Help (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

It's her?

Gu raised his eyebrows imperceptibly.

The figure that appeared in front of him was the female cleaner who had escaped just now.

Perhaps knowing her previous sin "Gu Ji", the female cleaner was so scared that she was so nervous that her whole body trembled uncontrollably, "Don't kill me!" I don't have any ill will towards you! ”

"It depends on how much information you can give me,"

Gu Ji didn't raise his eyelids, and the muzzle of the gun was never lowered, "What's your name?" ”

"Kaf."

"Carf, now answer my question honestly, why am I being locked up in a confinement cell, what are those professors and experts studying, and why is the hospital the way it is?"

"I, I'm just a cleaner, I don't understand a lot of things, but the guards have repeatedly warned us, saying that you are dangerous, forbidding us to communicate with you, as for the hospital, it was ...... the morning before yesterday"

The female cleaner, Carf, hurriedly waved her hand to clear up the relationship, and immediately told the story of what had happened in the past few days.

Originally.

Ever since Gu Ji fell unconscious, there was a problem with the white coat that was fighting with the guard Tapa.

That night, while distributing food, he got into an argument with a patient in the confinement cell.

At that time, Carf and the guards thought that he was in a mood because he had been beaten too hard during the day, but when it was time to distribute food the next morning, he actually directly pinched off a patient's wrist.

By the time the tall guard Ratwu arrived at the scene, he had completely lost his mind.

Outcome.

The scene of yesterday's quarrel and mutual assault was staged again.

But the difference is that Latwu actually shot him directly.

Seeing that his state was not quite right, Kafu hurriedly took advantage of the chaos to escape.

The guards, attracted by the sound of gunfire, could not wait to persuade them, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out between the two sides, and the more difficult the matter became, the bigger the trouble.

Moreover.

Similar incidents of violence have occurred among health care workers.

"You mean, the female nurse who gave me medicine at the time stabbed the doctor's eyeball with a hemostat?"

"Yes!"

Seeing that Kafu's expression didn't look like he was lying, Gu Ji's brows furrowed even tighter.

From her description, it can be concluded that Tapa, who went crazy first, was the first person to be infected by this "disaster", and the male white coat and Raut, who had close contact with him at that time, were all infected.

Although Kraft was also on the scene.

But she wore chemical protective clothing and gas masks throughout the whole process, and even the medical rubber gloves were double-layered, how could bacteria and viruses easily infect the body?

Then there is only one possibility:

In fact, the virus has already spread in the hospital, but Tapa is the first infected person to enter the outbreak period and develop symptoms.

This is also confirmed from Kaf's later description.

Xia Denan, who was in charge of managing the experimental area, that is, the guy who ordered Gu Ji to give injections, suddenly asked the guards to move all the materials and equipment, and left the hospital with the professors and experts overnight.

They, the doctors, the peripherals, and the patients, were left to fend for themselves.

It was at this moment that Carf began to waver in her belief in what she called "Abba".

But just as she was about to leave yesterday afternoon, a large number of police officers and white coats suddenly came outside the hospital, and began to prohibit insiders from going out, and then sent a team of police and a medical team to come in to investigate.

As a result, it was in the evening.

Outside, the police suddenly tightened the blockade and sealed off the entire hospital completely.

What's even more outrageous is that not only they can't get out, but even the police and doctors who came in were stopped here.

Several clashes also broke out between the two sides.

But the official attitude was very resolute, even at the expense of firing warning shots, resolutely not letting anyone out of the hospital, and sending more police and armed police to ensure that the lockdown was tight, that is, the people who were just outside the window.

"So, you risked your life to come to me because you wanted me to take you down?"

Gu Ji glanced at her.

It seems that I didn't expect this inconspicuous-looking female cleaner to have such a scheming.

No wonder it has survived until now.

"How do you know?"

Carve's eyes widened, her face full of panic as her thoughts were punctured.

Actually, it's not hard to guess at all.

A normal psychiatric hospital only has outpatient clinics, laboratories, wards, and offices, but the "experimental area" in Kafu's mouth is obviously not a normal department.

Most likely, it is a secret base used by this extremist group to research unconventional weapons.

Don't underestimate extremist groups.

As early as 2015, intelligence agents in the United States and Iraq claimed that extremist groups had set up branches to study chemical weapons, conducting research and testing.

This was reported by a senior Iraqi government official.

Extremist groups control scientists with both civilian and military backgrounds, from a variety of countries and regions, including Iraqi military researchers during Salim's time.

And this was only ten years ago.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has long stated that the way modern extremist organizations carry out terrorist attacks is escalating, and that in the future it is likely to face the risk of chemical warfare and bacteriological warfare by extremist groups.

Because for terrorists.

The harmful effect of a single poisoning is far greater than that of a car bomb.

The police and medical team that were the first to be sent in by the Nepalese government should have also investigated this and immediately reported it urgently.

But I didn't expect it.

The magnitude of this matter is far beyond the control of the authorities.

Whether it's mysterious radiation, or an unknown mad virus.

They don't have a solution for the time being.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the people, the government can only use the brutal method of "one size fits all" for the time being, and close the hospital tightly.

And this group of people in the advance team has undoubtedly become cannon fodder and victims.

But they certainly won't sit still.

In particular, those biochemical experts will inevitably prioritize screening for high-risk targets in the hospital and isolate them together on the floor of the experimental area with the strongest radiation, so as to curb the continued spread of infection.

This is also why Gu Ji has been "shopping" for so long.

I only saw two people alive, oh no, now only the reason for Kafu is left.

"That's right, that's what I thought, those policemen forced us to stay in the experimental area, although I was wearing a protective suit, but when I thought of what you told me that day, what did you say that there was radiation here, my clothes couldn't stop it at all, and if I continued to stay here, I would die, I didn't want to die......"

In the end, Carf even began to cry through the mask.

Gu Ji looked at her appearance.

But it's normal for a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl to be afraid of death.

Now, the situation is cleared.

A preliminary analysis can be carried out.

Gu Ji lowered his head, and his brain began to run rapidly.

First of all, there are three risk factors in front of them: radiation, unknown viruses, and infected people and police.

Gu Ji didn't know why he hadn't been infected until now.

It stands to reason that when Tapa and the man in the white coat were fighting each other, he had no protection at that time, and he should have been hit a long time ago.

But since this is a completely new virus.

The characteristics of the infectious disease model that cannot be applied to any of the human public health history may be due to the special mode of transmission, it may be due to the excessive radiation absorbed in his body, and it may even be related to the injection of central nervous system drugs he was taking at that time.

For the time being, though, one thing is certain:

The incubation period of this infectious disease is very short, only 1~3 days, although there are no symptoms during the incubation period, it is already highly contagious;

After the outbreak of the disease, the infected person is irritable, uncontrollable, extremely aggressive, and is not afraid of pain or death......

The latter point was inferred by Gu Ji based on the male doctor who attacked him just now.

"It's not good, if you continue to stay here, there is only a dead end!"

Gu Ji sighed secretly in his heart.

In the experimental area, there are not only a large number of radioactive substances, but also a hard-hit area polluted by infectious diseases, coupled with the harsh air environment, there is feces and urine everywhere, and there are proper drug king aggregates.

Every second you spend here will reduce your lifespan by one more minute.

"You told me about the structure of the hospital and the number of people downstairs, especially the police, and the weapons they carried!"

"I, I'll think about ......"

Carve raised her head slightly, her eyes squinting at the ceiling, thinking seriously.

It took half a minute before she opened her palm and said, "There are less than twenty people downstairs, including seven medical staff and four policemen, all of whom are holding spears like you!" ”

Four armed men, armed with assault rifles.

It's not easy to do......

Gu Ji asked Carf to take her to the hospital's fire escape map.

In the emergency escape corridor, he finally saw the whole picture of the hospital, which has a total of seven floors, one of which is the outpatient and examination area, and the second to fifth floors are wards, which are divided into two categories: open wards and closed wards.

When it comes to the enclosed wards, the stairwells are equipped with access control systems and barbed wire.

This is mainly to prevent severely mentally ill patients from getting emotional and committing some radical behaviors such as jumping off buildings to commit suicide, and ordinary people will stop at this level.

If you want to enter the closed ward, you must make an appointment in advance.

And the experimental area is even tighter.

It is almost completely cut off from the ward, but there is a special passage that leads directly to the parking lot behind the hospital, which is the area that Gu Ji had seen from the window earlier.

But now, whether it's the main entrance, or the secret door.

All of them were blocked by the police, and the electronic access cards that could enter and exit the experimental area were all snatched by them.

"How many people are there in the experimental area now?"

"Excluding Dr. Kieran, who you killed just now, there are thirteen left, and most of them are being held in the confinement cells on the top floor."

"In other words, there are still living people in the activity area?"

"Bang dang! Bang Dang! ”

As soon as Gu Ji's words fell, there were suddenly two loud noises at the door of the stairwell on the sixth floor, which frightened Kafu to pounce on him in an instant, grabbing his arm.

"Right...... Right! There were also three seriously ill patients and a nurse who had gone insane when they were brought in, and Dr. Kieran was afraid that these people would attack us, so he locked the staircase door on the top floor. ”

"I see."

Gu Ji squinted.

It seems that if you want to go on, you will have to face the attacks of at least four madmen.

He raised his wrist and glanced at the firearm in his hand, this little bit of ammunition is still too little, he has to collect a wave of supplies first, otherwise even if he can deal with those crazy infected, he will have to face the four policemen downstairs.

Thereupon.

Gu Ji first returned to the corridor of the confinement room, forcibly endured the stench in the air, and stripped off all the usable equipment on the corpses of the two guards.

Pistols, rifle magazines, military daggers, tactical boots, VOODOO vests, M50 masks.

And most importantly, the biochemical support system!

Gu Ji turned on the Geiger counter.

"Buzz~woo~"

The familiar and classic murmur reappeared.

And when he fixed his eyes on the numbers displayed on it, his pupils shrank sharply.

708 millisieverts!

Seaver's unit is huge.

Therefore, it is often used to convert 1 sievert to 1000 millisieverts, and 1 millisievert to 1000 microsieverts.

As we all know, imaging examinations in hospitals are radiation, such as CT scans, ranging from 700 to 3,000 microsieverts, and the Fukushima nuclear power plant has radiation levels of 1,015 microsieverts/hour, which is equivalent to 10 X-rays per person.

A radiation of less than 100 millisieverts has no effect on the human body.

When the radiation dose is 1000~2000 millisieverts, it may cause mild acute radiation sickness, but it can be cured.

When the radiation is between 2000 and 4000 millisieverts, the bone marrow and bone density of the person are destroyed, the number of red blood cells and white blood cells is greatly reduced, and there are symptoms such as internal bleeding and vomiting;

More than 4000 millisieverts can be life-threatening, but it can still be treated, and the success rate can reach 90%;

When it exceeds 6000 millisieverts, there is a certain difficulty in treatment;

When it exceeds 8,000 millisieverts, there is very little hope for a cure!

In other words, as long as you don't do a good job of protection in the seventh-floor area of the hospital, you have already been damaged by radiation and have suffered from radiation sickness.

And that's just the hallway.

Because when Gu Jige counters moved towards the confinement chamber, the value continued to increase!

In other words, in the days he has been imprisoned, he has been exposed to an unknown number of sieverts, and his whole body, whether bones, cells, or internal organs, has been destroyed by radioactive particles.

He won't live long!

"Damn, where did these extremist organizations get the radioactive materials, obviously there is nothing in the confinement room, and they can have such a strong amount of radiation just by relying on radioactive dust?"

Gu Ji gritted his teeth and cursed secretly.

Now, he had to find the military hazmat suits as soon as possible, but the clothes on the two guards had all been torn by bullets, and they were useless, and he wanted to get new ones.

You can only find it on the next floor, the sixth floor.

But on the sixth floor, there are crazy infected!

"This knife is for you, and if anyone attacks you, kill him."

"Huh? I, I'm not going to kill people......"

Kafu took the dagger handed by Gu Ji, and when he heard the word "killing", he was immediately frightened and threw it on the ground.

Gu Ji didn't pay attention to it, and just left a sentence: "Then you can ask for more blessings, I won't save you." ”

Looking at his departing back, Cave looked down at the dagger stained in a pool of blood, gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, but still picked it up and followed.

Come to the stairwell.

Gently push the door open.

Gu Ji noticed that the fire staircase on the sixth floor, which was closed just now, had been opened.

This is also what he thinks is the most powerful thing about this unknown virus, that is, it can make people emotionally uncontrollable and aggressive, but still maintain the basic thinking of normal human beings.
