Yongan City Hall.

As the leader of Yongan City, Li Zhenying has been sitting in this position for nearly five years, and if there is no accident, he will go further to Lingyun City after the parliamentary elections in February and March next year.

Today, during the Ten Thousand Flowers Festival, he accompanied his family to eat at home and watched the fireworks show on the beach by the way.

Until there was a terrifying scene on TV, the table that had been full of laughter fell silent, and only his phone rang non-stop in the dining room of Nuoda.

Li Zhenying didn't answer the phone, he looked at the TV with a blue face.

Although the picture on TV is still a fireworks show, Lee Chun-young still found something strange - the TV content broadcast at this moment is from last year.

Something happened on the other side of the beach.

And it's still a big deal.

Putting down the chopsticks without saying a word, Li Zhenying took out another mobile phone, and after making the call, he asked what the situation was.

I don't know what was said over there, Li Zhenying hung up the phone and walked outside, leaving the family looking at each other but not daring to ask.

Ten minutes later, Lee Chun-ying arrived at the city hall.

Looking at the beach surveillance footage uploaded on his mobile phone, a layer of fine sweat broke out on Liu Zhenying's forehead.

He had never been so scared in all these years, and he felt a tightness in his chest and ran into his office regardless of his image.

Instruction after instruction came out of his office.

During this period, the secretary kept coming in and writing down some updates on the situation on a piece of paper and handing it to him.

When he completely figured out what was going on at the beach fireworks show, he couldn't hold back his emotions anymore and cursed a swear word!

It's not normal that something so big has happened, and there hasn't been a little wind beforehand.

Someone must have done it on purpose.

Will he be able to keep his position? Now the only one who can save him is his old father-in-law, who has an important position in the House of Lords.

What to do?

He felt that it was better to listen to the old father-in-law's opinion first.

Li Zhenying took out the phone and took a long breath, trying to make herself appear as calm as possible.

"Father, ...... disturb you so late" The phone was connected, and Li Zhenying said humbly.

"Zhenying, your call is a little later than I thought." He said, "I happened to see Your Majesty in a while, what happened to you over there, is it serious?" ”

"It's supposed to be a genetic mutation that causes people to be like crazy, bite when they see someone, and the bitten person gets infected very quickly, so the situation is a bit serious now."

"How many people have been infected?"

"At least thousands."

"What are you going to do?" Asked on the other end of the phone.

What to do?

Li Zhenying had already thought about what to do just now, but the incident happened suddenly, and he felt that the top priority should be to save people when he encountered this situation for the first time.

But he knew that his sophisticated old father-in-law might not agree with him, so he was silent.

"The first step is to block the news from the outside world." Seeing that Li Zhenying didn't say anything, the voice on the other side of the phone came.

"Whether the infected are a hundred or a thousand, it's just a cold number for the old slippery heads in the council, but the people need a sense of security, you know what I mean?"

"There are too many infected people, and whether they can be treated or not, what about after they are cured? Do you want to give them relief from time to time? What if they are instigated to make trouble? ”

"So I suggest that in order to prevent the virus from spreading, we should deal with it once and for all."

"It doesn't matter if the public opinion is in an uproar, I will send an investigation team over, so it will be ...... three days at most" The old father-in-law paused and said in an aggravated tone: "Yong'an will recover as before in three days." ”

"The investigation team went over and asked them to release the results of the investigation to the public."

"Also, let the people learn to be silent."

Li Zhenying listened to the old father-in-law's earnest teachings, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Go get busy, kid." After that, he hung up the phone.

Listening to the beeping sound on the other side of the phone, Li Zhenying had not yet recovered from the other party's words.

After a while, he put down his phone, looked at the secretary who was about to speak, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The secretary hurriedly reported back: "The heads of the three urban districts of Changwen, Yongle, and Le'an in the conference room have basically arrived, but Li Lao from Le'an has not arrived, and Zhong Yi came to attend the meeting on behalf of Le'an. ”

The secretary hesitated as he spoke, but still told the news he knew: "I heard that when the fireworks show began to have an accident, the same situation occurred in the Li family, Li Lao is fine, but there are more than a dozen people in the house who have been infected." ”

Li Qianfan......

Thinking of the accident of the Li family girl a few days ago, and tonight's incident, is all this a coincidence? Thinking like this, Li Zhenying called the secretary over and whispered a few words.

He decided to listen to his old father-in-law because they were a family.

And Yong'an is the Yong'an of Yong'an people.

Lee Chun-ying first arranged for the secretary to release the news to refute the rumors, and at the same time ordered all Yongan citizens to stay at home immediately.

And the most important directive: if you find an infected person, if you resist, kill them on the spot, and cremate the body as soon as possible.

With that said, he walked to the conference room.

Up to now, we can only have a future if we advance and retreat together.

Otherwise, when the investigation team comes three days later, will Yongan still be the same Yongan as before?

……

Chu Huan, who was wet all over, came out of the sea, listening to the dense gunfire not far away, he knew that it would not be long before all the living dead on the shore would be wiped out.

What's next?

Not in his position, not in his politics, this is a sentence that Sister Mei taught him, it's just ...... He always felt that things like this about his life really had to be decided by those in power?

"What's the fuss?" When the security police arrived, Sister Mei, who got off the fishing boat, saw Chu Huan looking at the direction of Yong'an City and was stunned, so she asked.

"Nothing." Chu Huan glanced Sister Mei up and down as he spoke, and after making sure that Sister Mei was safe, he looked at Liu Ruyun and Jiang Xiaoling who were walking towards him, and continued: "I didn't expect a good fireworks show to become like this. ”

The world is impermanent, if it weren't for the mutation of their own bodies, ordinary people would face these changes as if they had encountered a disaster, what were the chances of surviving?

"yes, I didn't expect it to end like this." Sister Mei was a little sad, the person who was standing next to her before lost his life in a blink of an eye, and anyone who saw it would be a little sad.

Jiang Xiaoling and Cicada on the side greeted each other, Sister Mei recognized Liu Ruyun, but Liu Ruyun didn't know who Sister Mei was, and after a brief introduction, the two groups of people separated.

There were at least a thousand people who had been hiding in the sea before, and as the living dead on the shore were wiped out, these still alive walked silently on the way back to the city.

No one spoke, only silence.

As they walked, they didn't know who couldn't help crying first, and more people in the crowd began to cry bitterly.

Sad all the way.

The road was full of vigilantes in groups of three, holding megaphones in their hands and shouting the latest announcement from the city hall:

Yongan immediately began a curfew, and do not go out during the day.

Chu Huan took out his mobile phone, he wanted to make a call.

More people are looking at their phones.

I don't know when the city's communication system was cut off.

From this moment on, Yongan entered the era of no communication network.

People can't get online, they can't make phone calls.

The ancient city fell silent.

Only the night breeze blew gently, as if nothing had happened.
