19 Chapter XIX

At first, only a small number of people noticed the rumors of mutated rabies in H City.

That is the marketing account operated by the major social entertainment sections.

They are like hyenas swarming to smell meat, integrating the information collected at the first time, whether it is true or false, with vague network maps, and frantically forwarding them on major traffic platforms.

#突发! Autumn flu appeared in H City, as long as you come into contact with it, you are at risk of getting sick#

#传染病疑被证实为新型传染病, the fatality rate is as high as 100% #

#莫慌张! Keep the following precautions in mind to keep the new infectious disease away from you and your family#

#辟谣, the counterfeit drug dealers have fabricated a new type of virus in order to increase sales, is it a distortion of human nature, or a moral degradation#

In today's era of information explosion, the Internet is full of true and false news.

It often happens that the melon in his hand has not been eaten yet, and he is kicked over in the next second, and he is stuffed with a mouthful of new melon in a daze, and he chokes on his throat.

As a result, all netizens who have been poisoned by false information immediately looked at it and immediately filled their minds with black lines.

"Just ask if it's okay, the flu every year says every year, there's no news to post, right?"

"The last time I saw it was mutant rabies."

"The last article spread rumors, the next article refutes rumors, or the same media, can you unify your voice before publishing the article?"

"If you step on it, there is still a 100% lethality rate, who believes it and who is stupid."

……

"My home is in H City, can you send someone to take care of those animals running around first, there are still tigers and lions running outside for so long, what are you kidding? :)”

"In a trance, I thought I was living in a primeval jungle."

"In the same city of H, I am panicking when I go to work now, for fear that a tiger will come out of nowhere and bite me to death!"

"Tell you the truth, those big animals are so conspicuous, why haven't they been caught yet??"

"There have been 7 people who have been bitten into the hospital, and even 3 people have been bitten to death, can you pay attention to it!"

"Help, the accident site seems to be not far from my house!"

Compared to influenza infection, animal biting people is real.

As soon as the bloody pictures full of mosaics spread on the Internet, they instantly aroused panic and anger among the masses.

No one wants to try what it's like to be bitten alive, and netizens in H City complained and flocked to the traffic security account to protest.

For a time, everyone's attention was on the incident of the escaped animals hurting people, and few people paid attention to the influenza virus.

Even the official warning suggestions were drowned out in the noisy human voices.

Until incidents of people biting start to happen frequently.

The first case occurred near the wet market, where the biter was a mentally ill person who had not been shut down, and the vendor hung up the lottery with passers-by who were kind enough to help, and it took several ambulances to pull all the injured away.

The second case occurred in a restaurant less than 300 meters away, and at least three people were killed.

The third case occurred in the hospital, where the patient had a sudden seizure and bit the doctor's throat, leaving blood splattered all over the bed and floor, and the biter was confirmed to have rabies.

……

More and more patients are biting people in the streets, and more and more citizens are witnessing their seizures.

People were stunned to find that those patients were not only delirious and unrecognizable, but even their appearance had changed drastically.

Some people can't help but upload a video, and the panic in the text is visible to the naked eye.

"My dad was bitten by a madman who jumped out of the roadside and suddenly became like this, his jaw couldn't be closed, and he drooled vigorously, what should I do?!"

The man in the video is firmly bound by the sheets, and basically no longer sees his original appearance - his skin is abnormally swollen, his eyes are red and dripping blood, and turbid and yellow saliva flows down the corners of his mouth, and he opens his mouth to let out a beastly roar.

People who see this video feel as if they are in cardiac arrest.

They trembled their fingers and wanted to download.

The next second the page refreshes, showing that the account has spread false statements and has been banned.

It's like God played a ridiculous joke on the people of H City.

In the days that followed, the injured appeared in large numbers, the major hospitals were broken through the thresholds, and even the beds in the clinics began to run out.

Grain prices have risen, supermarkets have been swept away by buyers, pharmacies have been robbed, and scalpers have raised drug prices.

The road out of the city was blocked, and citizens were forbidden to travel.

And similar disasters are also being staged in other cities.

.

At the same time, G City, near the Wenxinjia community.

Tang Qi walked briskly while swiping the page of his mobile phone.

But no matter how he refreshed it and changed the traffic card back and forth, the page only showed network error 404.

He couldn't help but curse secretly: "Are these true news or P pictures?" What the hell is the official doing, don't come out to refute the rumors! ”

Wen Xin stared ahead, and saw someone rampage behind him, and hurriedly pulled Tang Qi.

Tang Qi staggered away, watched the man pass by them, rushed into the supermarket in front without looking back, and roared angrily: "Running so fast and in a hurry to reincarnate!?" ”

But they can't bother to quarrel now.

G City is far away from H City, and a lot of news and news have been suppressed by secret forces, and by the time people got the news, there were already more than a dozen cases of new rabies virus patients in the city.

Moreover, it was the official announcement of the People's Hospital of G City, which did not even give people a chance to close their eyes and listen.

At this moment, the supermarket is full of people, all of whom are in a hurry to stock food after reading the news on the Internet.

There were even teams of vans that pulled out in boxes.

Tang Qi was in a hurry, grabbed Wen Xin's wrist and squeezed it in.

Wen Xin hurriedly grabbed the canary who came to help, in case the boy was scattered in the crowd.

In order to improve the efficiency of purchasing, after entering the supermarket, the three of them acted separately, Tang Qi went to buy snacks, and Wen Xin took the canary to buy rice and noodles.

The scene of the robbery can only be described as chaos.

Someone just wanted to stretch out his hand to the shelf, but when he saw that the entire row of instant noodles was pulled into the shopping cart under him with one arm, he was so anxious that his voice was two decibels: "Buy so much, do you plan to eat it for the next life?" ”

"Fuck you, you don't care if you can finish eating."

"The news on the Internet is not necessarily true, the official hasn't given a word yet, can you calm down, I just want to buy some meat and vegetables to cook at home!"

The staff hurriedly organized a crowded crowd: "Don't rob, don't rob!" Our supermarket will stock every day, don't crowd! Line up in the back, don't grab it! ”

"Stand back, I'm going to step on someone—"

Wen Xin put his arm around the canary and stood side by side with another girl in a sweatshirt.

Seeing that the girl in the sweatshirt was being pushed and was about to hit the iron shelf, he said, "Be careful! ”

At the same time, he stretched out his hand and quickly blocked it.

After the sweatshirt girl stood firmly, she immediately reacted and elbowed away from the person who hit her behind.

Then, she quickly scooped up the two remaining bags of rice and threw one bag into each of her and Wen Xin's shopping carts.

This made the people who tried to cut the line in the back almost red-eyed.

But because he was surrounded by people, he would be crowded out of place if he stopped a little, so he had to give up and go with others to grab the loose rice.

"Let's get out, let's get out!"

Wen Xin blocked the canary behind him, and the three of them managed to squeeze out the pile of people in front of the shelves and come to an open space.

The girl let out a long breath and almost squatted directly on the ground.

The month's workout has been fruitful, and compared to her, Wen Xin can still stand firmly, but he is also made by people's madness.

He looked at the extra bag of rice in the shopping cart and said to the girl, "Thank you." ”

The girl in the sweatshirt gasped for breath and bowed her chin: "Thank you too, you helped me block it just now." ”

The girl had other things to buy, and after saying this, she rushed out again and went straight to the canning area.

Wen Xin didn't care about resting, stared at the shopping list in his hand, and rushed to other shopping areas in turn.

There were a bit of a lot of things planned to buy, but luckily the canary was with him.

As a mutant, the canary has much more strength than ordinary people, and halfway through, he saw someone sneakily trying to push Wen Xin away, and directly kicked it unceremoniously.

"Damn, who kicked me! Ah, don't squeeze—"

The purchase, which usually takes only half an hour, took an extra two hours due to the crowding and queues.

The moment they got out of the supermarket, the three of them felt that the air was much fresher, and they were lucky to see the light of day again.

Tang Qi didn't know how his step-by-step daily life suddenly became like this.

"I really regret that I didn't buy more food when I went to the supermarket with you before."

He looked back at the crowd behind him, and only felt that his scalp was numb, "It's terrible, grass." ”

When he saw the news, Tang Qi suspected that his eyes were wrong, and swiped more than a dozen pages of netizen comments, and the more he looked at it, the more his hair stood on end, so he hurriedly ran to Wen Xin's house to inform his good friend.

He was so shocked that he didn't even react to the problem of hoarding food, but Wen Xin quickly calmed down and reminded him, and the three of them hurried to the supermarket.

Right now, they have bought almost a week's worth of rations, plus those stockpiled in the Wenxin utility room, which is enough to eat for more than a month.

Wen Xin rubbed his brow.

With the presence of the regiments in front of him, he will not be like others, and it will be difficult to accept this earth-shaking reality for a while.

He just looked at the network map shared by Tang Qi, and felt that things might not just be as simple as needing to stock up on food and medicine.

Why did Wen Jinfeng remind him to stock up on food a month earlier? Why is the infection so slow to be controlled? Why do those patients look less like humans at all, more like mutated monsters? ……

This is only the first day that City G has reported the emergence of a mutated rabies virus in the city.

The next day, something even more magical happened.
