Chapter 296: Troubles (Part 1)

In general, the best way to deal with Chen Yang and his right hand is to try to avoid the companion on his right hand and not get too close to him.

This is probably the most helpless but most effective method. If you don't come into contact with it, there will be no battle, and if you don't fight, you won't fail.

While Chen Yang and the two monsters on his right hand were dwelling on this troublesome problem, a shocking thing was also happening in Los Angeles outside.

After almost a week of silence, the incubation period of ndm-eh in the crowd is coming to an end, and a sudden outbreak of the disease is about to begin.

At the University of California, Los Angeles Medical Center (UCLA), Professor James looked at the emergency room hall in horror, his hands and feet were cold, and his breathing became a little short for a while.

After many years of medical experience, logically he should never be so eclipsed, but now he could not help but be shocked by the scene he saw with his own eyes.

The nurses were running back and forth, the medical treatment was started quickly, and the doctors were rushing out of the lounge. Everyone had a look of surprise and confusion on their faces, and they even bumped into others in their rush.

If it were in the past, Professor James would definitely frown and let the panicked doctors accept his roar, but at this time, no one had the mind to think about anything else, including himself.

For two hours, it was as if everyone in Los Angeles was infected by bacteria. Actually, more than 30 patients were sent in one after another, all suffering from bacterial infections! And they are all the same bacterial infection!

This is a massive epidemic of germs!

After seeing the same four or five patients, and thinking of several similar patients received by other hospitals in the past few days, Professor James immediately asked the hospital nurses to put on full isolation gowns and isolate the patients.

While evacuating the remaining patients and unrelated persons, the news was reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Unfortunately at this moment, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It had already become a mess.

In more than ten states across the United States, including well-known cities on the West Coast and East Coast, the number of patients infected with ndm-eh has increased exponentially. Currently, the number of reported symptoms alone has exceeded 2,739, and the number of symptoms continues to rise. It was so shocking that all the staff in the headquarters turned pale.

This is only in just one day!

More terrifying than Ebola virus...

The incident has been reported to the White House in Washington. As for how to deal with it...

The residents of Los Angeles are probably a little strange today. They suddenly discovered that the frequency of ambulance dispatches today is much higher than usual. No, not much higher, but much higher.

Liu Jie is a Chinese-American. It has been about seven years since he immigrated to Los Angeles in the United States. He brought his wife and children here and is now living quite satisfactorily.

I have to admit that the United States is not as good a place as I thought at home. No matter what kind of paradise it is, there is always unhappiness. After living in the United States for just one month, Liu Jie's idea that the United States was a paradise and that the United States was filled with gold was shattered in his heart.

Between turns. Liu Jie, who understood this clearly, honestly gave up his unrealistic illusions. Fortunately, I worked hard and struggled.

It took five years to go from a mobile Chinese food stall to five branches of Chinese cuisine, which can be considered "successful and famous". With money and a certain social status, Liu Jie immediately brought his wife and children to the United States, feeling that his lifelong goal had been achieved.

Let’s talk about what’s wrong with me now. That is his own child.

Although he successfully graduated from the local university, he didn't listen to his father at all. He refused to follow the arrangements and went to work in a company he had never heard of. What was his name, Andres?

This company sounds unreliable!

Liu Jie was depressed. But he soon put aside his depression and worries, holding the flowers he just bought in his hand, with a smile on his face. Today is the twenty-fourth wedding anniversary of he and his wife. Although they are an old married couple, there is no lack of romance. After all, he owed his wife too much in the past few decades. Now that he has the ability, he still has to do a good job. It’s only right to compensate.

I cannot let down my wife’s decades of happiness.

Holding the flowers in his hands, Liu Jie looked around. Just as he was about to cross the zebra crossing, a roaring ambulance rushed past him. The strong wind made the flowers in his hands whistle.

"Hey, is this the third one?"

Liu Jie was very puzzled. Walking from another street, he actually encountered three ambulances. Did something happen in Los Angeles today? Or was there a traffic accident or fire nearby?

Shaking his head, no matter what, these are none of his business. Doing your own thing is the most important thing.

Entering the restaurant, Liu Jie suddenly frowned. In the elegant French restaurant that was supposed to be quiet, there were actually a dozen people in a mess, surrounding a place not knowing what they were doing.

"Quick, call an ambulance."

"Someone passed out here."

Liu Jie has been here for seven years. No matter how bad his speaking and hearing were before, he is no different from the locals now. When he heard the shouts of several service staff, he looked forward curiously and saw that someone had fainted. ?

Wait, why did the clothes of the fainted man look so similar to what his wife was wearing today?

An ominous premonition suddenly occurred. Liu Jie took a deep breath, hurriedly threw away the flowers in his hands, pushed through the crowd and rushed forward. When he lowered his head, he couldn't help shouting, and his tears couldn't help but flow down. .

The person who fainted on the ground was really his wife!

Scenes like this are not just happening here. Throughout the United States, especially in big cities such as New York, Washington, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, the number of people who suddenly become ill has increased sharply.

Some people suddenly get sick while eating, and some people suddenly feel nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea while driving, talking at work, or in meetings. There are endless cases.

From six o'clock in the morning, the piercing sound of ambulances kept ringing in major cities. By seven o'clock in the evening, almost all hospitals were filled with patients.

Like many desperate people, Liu Jie sent his relatives to the hospital. Before he could ask the doctor about his condition, he saw people wearing white protective suits walking into every corner of the hospital and starting to register everyone.

"Oh my God, what the hell is going on?"

Some people were exclaiming in low voices, and some were trying to escape from the hospital, while Liu Jie kept looking for the doctor and wanted to ask about the condition of his wife who entered the emergency room.

"Sir, I'm sorry, please go and register."

Two personnel wearing white protective suits blocked the passage to the emergency room on the second floor and asked Liu Jie to go back and register.

"Please wait a moment, I-I want to ask my wife."

However, Liu Jie's sad expression did not arouse any sympathy from the personnel in white protective clothing. He looked at the crowd of people crowded indifferently and warily, and said loudly: "Gentlemen, please go and register. We are from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention." , please don’t worry, your relatives are receiving first aid now, and everyone will be fine."

If these people in white protective suits hadn't come in, I'm afraid that even if the people present were anxious, they wouldn't be as frightened as they are now, especially after saying this, a white man stood by the window, looking out at the terrified people downstairs. Said: "Oh my god, why did you close the hospital?"

The words were like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves. People who were still in the lobby crowded to the windows and looked outside. Sure enough, several trucks were driving over. People in white protective suits jumped out and blocked the door to and from the hospital. Yellow cordons and biohazard signs were put up.

"What do you want to do?"

"You are violating the law!"

"I want to find my lawyer..."

Liu Jie was among the excited crowd. There were hundreds of excited people, which immediately made the dozen or so Centers for Disease Control personnel present nervous. They offered persuasion and assurance. Unfortunately, these family members who came with the patients, Don't understand this. They only saw people from the Center for Disease Control suddenly barging in, wearing terrible protective suits, and the doctors and nurses were nowhere to be seen. It was very strange no matter how they thought about it.

Liu Jie listened to the roars of the white people and black people around him, his eyes filled with confusion, and his heart was filled with worries about his wife and fear of the situation he did not understand. Unknowingly, he retreated to the back of the crowd and took the He took out his cell phone and dialed his son's phone number.

"Dudu... hello?"

His son's deep voice came from the phone. Liu Jie, who usually felt that his son was disobedient, choked up and said: "Xiaoyi, your mother, your mother..."

"My mother? What happened to my mother?"

On the other side of the phone, the deep tone immediately changed and he asked hurriedly.

"Your mother, your mother suddenly fainted and is currently being treated in the hospital."

"Fainted? What happened? Why did you faint suddenly? Isn't my mother in good health?"

Liu Jie didn't know how to answer his son's series of questions. Before he could explain in words, his son's tone changed: "Wait, my mother couldn't be... Oh, why did I forget, damn it!"

"Xiaoyi, you, what did you say?"

Liu Jie was at a loss.

"Dad, which hospital are you in now?"

"UCM...I can't seem to get out."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Jie said.

"Can't get out? What's going on?"

"It seemed like a group of people from the Centers for Disease Control were not allowing us to leave and wanted to register our identity."

"Isolated you? Oh, no! Dad, don't worry, just wait for me in the hospital."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jie was still at a loss, wondering what his son's idea was.

Only then did he suddenly feel that his son had really grown up and was much calmer than his father in emergencies. (To be continued...)
