Indescribable cyberpunk

Zhu Jue hung up the phone and prepared to rest.

Newcastle, however, lingered in the office because of the content of the call.

Could that be the original source of the virus or the source of infection?

Can important data and information be obtained through its analysis, and then medicines targeted at it can be produced?

All kinds of thoughts wandered in Newcastle's mind, which made him even a little restless for a moment. He wanted to call the laboratory and ask the laboratory to prepare manpower and equipment in advance, but he was afraid that doing so would make others guess that he still had contact with Rona. , picked up the phone several times, but finally chose to put it down.

"Mr. Newcastle, it's late at night now, and it's been 5 hours since get off work. I suggest you prepare to rest."

A smart secretary dedicated to Newcastle sends reminders via a computer in the office.

"These are extraordinary times. If you cancel the rest reminder, I will take care of it myself."

Leaning on the sofa next to the door, listening to the sparse and almost inaudible footsteps outside the door, I caught a glimpse of the two hands of the clock on the wall turning into "1", Newcastle wrapped his coat tightly,

"Prepare a rest room for me. I will spend the night in the epidemic prevention center today."

"Okay, please wait. The administrator of the epidemic prevention center has been notified. A confirmation reply has been received."

After intermittent replies, calm returned to the office again, leaving only the rhythmic sound of the metronome.

After leaning for a few more minutes, Newcastle sighed, and was still going to go to the laboratory and the intensive care unit to see the progress of the disease research and the status of the infected people.

Who knew that as soon as he opened the door and walked out, he saw the old man appearing at the other end of the corridor.

"teacher?"

He shouted subconsciously, and the figure in front of him paused and turned around. It was the director of the epidemic prevention center, Ge Lang.

"Newcastle, you haven't rested yet?"

The old man had his hands empty and looked a little surprised when he saw Newcastle.

"Teacher, didn't you take a break? Are you here to check on the infected people?"

Newcastle looked at the old man in front of him with some emotion, thinking that it must be because of Teacher Grand that he developed such a habit now.

"Well, the problem of the epidemic has not been solved, and it is always on people's minds. I just had a chat with the people from Life Medical Group and stopped by to take a look. Go back and rest. Don't care about your health just because you are young. This is what someone has experienced. advice."

With gray hair and a tired face, Grande stood upright. Looking at Newcastle at the door of the office, his eyes were full of himself from decades ago.

Suddenly feeling a little at a loss, he took a step forward and then stopped, put his hands in his pockets, looked at his protégé, and forced a smile.

"I still need to go to the laboratory to have a look. It's a special period. You should go back and rest quickly. As you said, I, a young man and the deputy director of the epidemic prevention center, have to shoulder the burden."

After saying that, Newcastle turned around and prepared to walk to the elevator next to him.

"Hey Newcastle, I'm sorry."

Director Ge Lang's voice came from behind, and it sounded a little hoarse.

"Feel sorry?"

As soon as the elevator door opened, Newcastle looked back.

"If I were younger, you wouldn't have to be so tired."

"Haha~ Teacher, you have to obey your age. Leave the next thing to me, a young man!"

Smiling and waving his hands, he walked into the elevator.

In the corridor outside, the incandescent light showed Grande's old age. He turned around and crossed the corner. The loose skin on both sides of his cheeks trembled, and his figure became much more stooped.

Hoo~ho~

A low roar woke up Zhu Jie from his deep sleep.

This voice was familiar yet unfamiliar to him. It was familiar because he knew in his heart that it should be the voice of the silver ferocious beast transformed by his own spiritual will. It was unfamiliar because he had never heard such a boring tone.

It wants to wake itself up. It seems weak!

The moment strange thoughts appeared in his mind along with a sense of panic that had not appeared in a long time, Zhu Jue began to recover.

The quilt on my body was a little heavy, so I subconsciously raised my arms to pull it away.

There was no movement.

Zhu Jue reluctantly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was two layers of brown bedding. This was not his room.

Turning his eyes to the surroundings, he realized that this was the cabin he had seen once when he was in a coma after drinking the Gadamon daughter potion in the lower-level community.

But compared to the last time he came in, the scene inside the wooden house has changed.

The bonfire in the center of the room seemed to be missing firewood. The flames were no longer as strong as they were last time, and the beeping sound when burning was also much muffled.

The dimness of the bonfire made the light in the entire cabin look very dim. The shadows cast by the cabinets and tables covered half of the room. The LCD TV facing the bedside no longer had the indescribable series of videos on it, but flickered in black and white. The colorful snowflakes made a harsh crunching sound.

Outside the window was darkness, no wind, snow, or lake.

Roar~

A roar came in from outside the door, a little impatient.

There was another dull pain in the skull cavity. Zhu Jue frowned and wanted to get up to check the situation. At this time, his body was suddenly able to move.

He stood up suddenly and lifted the quilt. The soreness in his arms and the numbness in his left foot when he landed on the ground surprised Zhu Jue. His body was actually extremely weak.

My bare feet stepped on the cold floor of the wooden house. The roar at the door had not stopped. I could still vaguely hear claws scratching the door, which was like the sound of the wind chimes outside the bathroom door when I was taking a shower.

He reluctantly walked to the door like a zombie, turned the door handle and opened the door. The cold air rushed into the room. While Zhu Jue was shaking all over, he also saw the silver ferocious beast that squeezed in the door the moment he opened the door.

It was not in good condition. It had its head lowered and its tail drooped. It was not walking as neatly as before, as if it had just fought something. Glancing sideways at Zhu Jue, I saw that he had not closed the door yet. He came over and humped him with a "purr~" sound again.

Zhu Jue raised his hand to comfort it, resisting the physical discomfort, and used the light from the bonfire to look at the dark world outside the house.

There seemed to be cracks on the frozen lake not far away, and large shadows clung to the bottom. Even a brief gaze still made Zhu Jue subconsciously want to retract his gaze.

Along with the wind came the sound of branches or tree trunks breaking. Zhu Jue knew that it was coming from the jungle further away, and there were some weird things that were difficult to describe in words wandering among them.

Suddenly he looked up at the sky.

Darkness filled that place, but Zhu Jue felt that something was watching him at that moment.

"Tsk, I don't let you sleep at night, it's up to you!"

He raised his middle finger to that place fiercely and cursed loudly.

So his mind was in a trance again, everything in front of him was quickly retreating, and his body was swaying and falling backward.

Bang~

The sound of butt colliding with the bed board.

Zhu Jue woke up in the bedroom of the clinic with cold sweat all over his forehead. He touched his back and his back was dripping with sweat!
