small season

Xin in the isolation room of the hospital. One day and one night have been spent.

This is a new morning. To Xin Lai. Nothing has changed. She is also in this ward that is closed on all sides.

Waiting just as impatiently as everyone else.

The doctor who came in took her blood and tested it. She got a piece of news from this doctor.

Regarding the answer to why there was such chaos in the hospital square that day.

The doctor told Xin what happened. And the severity we are facing now.

Because we had to find all the people who were in the hospital lobby that day. That is impossible.

Xin's mood became even heavier.

Now that the news has gone out. Xin asked the doctor. Could you please let me contact the outside world?

The doctor shook his head.

"So, how long will my quarantine last?"

Like a doctor, he shook his head.

After completing all the inspections. The doctor withdrew.

Xin looked out from the window. Doctors and nurses in protective suits were all standing outside.

This corridor seems to be lively.

She saw in the room opposite. There is a male colleague who is quarantined with her. Also looking towards the corridor. He saw Xin. Smiling tiredly.

Xin knew that no sound could be heard from the isolation ward. So she gestured with her hands on the glass. meaning is. How are you?

The handsome male colleague opposite, about 30 years old, also responded with gestures with his hands.

  He means. not good.

So they both looked at each other and smiled.

When Xin had nothing to do, he would go to the glass door and look out. Watching the doctors coming in and out. Pushing the instrument around.

You will also find that the male colleague opposite is looking at him.

Forgot to introduce.

His name is: Shi Jun.

I just came to this hospital not long ago. So Xin only met face to face. But I have never chatted or anything. Later, they were transferred to the isolation layer together. It's also difficult to say a word. His pattern is clear. and. Every time we meet, there is always a smiling person inside. Even with that mask on. You can also feel that he is smiling.

I don't usually talk much. And now we are looking at each other from the opposite side. I couldn't even say a word to each other.

It seems that in this 26th floor. Many quarantined patients came.

Xin learned from the doctor that there were more than 100 people. Only a few came in.

Then, we should live on this floor together.

She saw Shi Jun opposite him again. He looked at it with the same boredom. Then when Xin's eyes came over. He said hello.

When they were gesticulating with each other and trying to chat to relieve their boredom. Shi Jun suddenly made a gesture. He means look to the left.

Only saw. A white hospital bed rolls out from the corridor on the left. There was an unclear patient lying on the hospital bed. He was wearing an oxygen mask. Hanging bottles. He was pushed in from the isolation door on the left.

That must be the patient who was admitted today. One of those more than 100 people.

Doctors wearing white protective suits were escorting them.

Then walked over from the corridor.

Shi Jun and Xin watched the hospital bed passing by their door.

That face was already covered with black marks. There is a yellow rash among the black marks. The white sheet covered his whole body. But at a glance you can see the bulge in the middle. It must be his belly.

It's the same patient they saw on the 27th floor. A person infected with corpse bacteria.

Wen Suo is sitting at the computer desk and browsing the Internet.

His mother came in and told him: Ji is coming.

As soon as he turned around, Ji had already walked to him.

"It's really weird these two days. How far is it from where I live to your home? We don't have a car." Ji complained.

"No, don't you go out casually these days?" Wen Suo.

"Then you can just let me stay at home." Ji.

Wen Suo glanced outside the door. The mother in the living room is looking here.

He stretched out his foot and kicked the door shut.

"Look, look...since I can't stay at your house. I went through all the trouble and walked from my house to your house for half an hour. You should have something to say."

Wen Suo immediately hugged Ji and left a kiss on her face.

"However, it's only this time. Come to me again when the situation outside is not so bad." Wen Suo warned.

"It's me. I'm here to see you. You still dislike it. I asked you to go out, but you didn't want to. The situation outside is chaotic."

Wen Suo took Ji's hand and said,"It's true. It's best not to go out outside now. Be obedient."

Ji smiled and said:"I know, I know... you are really useless."

During the period of Wen Suo and Ji Xiao. There was a knock on the door.

Wensuo knows. That must be his mother.

Every time Ji Yi stays in his room. She will surely knock on the door.

"What's going on? Mom," Wen Suo asked impatiently.

"Ask Ji to come out."

Wen Suo glanced at Ji and said,"My mother is calling you."

"It's definitely up to no good." Ji.

She understood that Wensuo's mother, father and grandma who lived here did not like her.

Because she is a foreigner.

"Go quickly, don't you want to have a good relationship with my mother?" Wen Suo.

Ji then opened the door in a dull voice and said,"Auntie, you are looking for me..."

Wensuo then went online.

That season seemed to be doing something with her mother. After a while, I heard the sound of opening and closing the door.

Wen Suo walked to the living room. I saw my father and mother watching TV.

I just didn't see Ji.

"Where is she?" Wen Suo asked.

Wensuo's mother replied:"I asked her to go shopping downstairs."

"What stuff? Didn't we buy quite a lot?" Wen Suo.

"Feng Youjing. I have a headache." Wen Suo's mother.

Then continue watching TV.

Wen Suo sighed angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

So I returned to the room.

"Why are you nervous?" Wen Suo's mother shouted. "Can't I even give her orders?"

Wensuo remained silent.

Then I heard the conversation between mother and father.

"Look at your son. I didn't introduce him to him, but he found such a woman. He just asked her to buy it, and she glanced at me."

"Okay, okay. Farewell."

． ．．． ．

"Vegetables are expensive now and can't be bought. I want to save money and come to our house. I'll have to cook more for her later..."

Wensuo closed the door.

During lunch. Ji hasn't come yet. So Wensuo called her. Just discovered. She didn't take her cell phone with her when she went out just now.

The bags are still in the room.

"Eat. The rice is almost cold."

At the dinner table, Wen Suo's parents had already started eating. Grandma also sat down. Everyone moved their chopsticks.

"Why does the season last so long?" Wen Suo.

Wen Suo's mother put down her chopsticks.

"Eat. You have to wait for her. Eat when she comes. If she doesn't come, don't eat."

Wen Suo walked to the window and took a look. The streets are empty. There are no cars or pedestrians.

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat. Go find her." His mother was angry.

Wen Suo had no choice but to sit down. Started eating.

"Don't go to the hospital recently. It's not clean there. Besides, you're still a trainee doctor." Wen Suo's father.

"Yes. At this time, don't go out. Don't let those people come to our house. Do you understand?" Mother followed.

"In the evening, I called the food delivery guy. Are your recent items really ridiculously expensive?"

． ．．． ．

Wen Suo was thinking about Ji because of the things his mother wanted to buy. I probably haven't seen any stores nearby. Where did she go?

Wen Suo put down his chopsticks. "I want to go out and have a look. The store has been closed these two days. How can I buy it?"

"Sit down." Father. "You still want to go out at this time. You're not allowed."

Wen Suo sat down again obediently.

"It's really the opposite. You used to be quite sensible. Why are you so confused when you meet this woman?"

"Farewell." Wensuo's grandma never said much. Say something now.

So everyone ate quietly.

It was around 2 in the afternoon. Still no Ji back.

Wen Suo became more and more anxious. he thought. This one-sided woman. Can't buy anything. Shouldn't we keep walking?

And her belongings are all here. I didn't even take my cell phone with me.

Could something happen?

But, at home. Parents' words are always the greatest. Wen Suo never dared to resist directly.

My parents are still watching TV outside.

He is only in the room. Wait quietly.

About four in the afternoon. Another routine inspection was conducted.

Xin heard something from the doctor who examined her.

"The results of the experiment have come out. This is a disease that has never been seen before. After they dissected the people who died after being infected with the corpse bacteria, they found that their burst stomachs were full of ascus."

Xin listened curiously.

"So the virus is spread through the air?"

"That may or may not be the case. The 38 people who were infected at the beginning have all been treated now. They were infected through contact. They came into contact with the spores of the corpse bacteria. These spores have been tested and can survive less than half an hour in the sun. So if If there is moisture or water in a place, these spores can survive for more than 2 days. However, the laboratory speculates that under certain conditions such as lack of oxygen, they can survive for a longer period of time. This is beyond our imagination and understanding. Maybe it was the virus that infected them in the first place."

Xin held down the arm where blood had been drawn. The doctor glanced at Xin. Then: "This virus has characteristics. Those who are infected do so because of the spores sticking to the surface of their skin. These spores are slightly smaller than grains of rice. But they are very invasive. They are like a reddish-brown tadpole. They open their hyphae." When it grows, it looks like a flower. Or it can be described as an umbrella. Once it comes into contact with human skin, the hyphae will directly insert into the epidermis, burrow into the tissue, and grow rapidly. Symptoms will appear in less than half a day."

"Then, we should have no possibility of infection." Xin asked. Because of the rapid onset of the disease, she understood it. But they still don't have any symptoms. Infection should be ruled out.

"I hope so. We found nothing when we checked your blood and tissue samples. We don't have a procedure yet, so we have to be careful. Maybe you can be discharged from the hospital in a few days." The doctor.

"Are there a few patients coming in outside?" Xin asked.

"Yeah." The doctor said.

"Can you tell me the situation?" Xin asked.

"More than 20 people have come in. Most of them are family members calling. So now this building has been completely isolated. It has become an isolation hospital."

  I see.

"So, is there anything new?" Xin asked.

The doctor was silent for a moment. Then his worries came out.

"This virus has a special characteristic. It uses mycelium to control the host. And it is constantly adapting. You should understand this. The first 38 people on the 27th floor have all died."

Xin recalled the scene of that day again. The patient whose body was covered in erosion opened his eyes. He grabbed the doctor's arm. Then the stomach collapsed.

"I've seen it." Xin.

"You know. When the corpse bacteria matures, it must be spread. So those infected patients will wake up when someone passes by them, and then look for new hosts to spread it."

Xin was shocked. she asked worriedly.

"You mean. Can they spread themselves more and more perfectly?"

The doctor nodded.

"This is what we are worried about. We are not familiar with its form yet. We only understand the method of transmission. But they can change the transmission method on their own. Today there was a patient on the 25th floor. When our protective personnel entered, he actually stood up Get up. And come to us...Okay. It's time for me to go to the next ward."

"Thank you. I don't know your name yet. Although I see you every day." Xin smiled. All she could see were the eyes exposed in the protective hood.

Those are a pair of very kind eyes.

"Just call me Doctor Zhang. I'll be transferred from the capital." He.

  "Thanks."

  "You're welcome."

Xin watched him leave the ward. There are two protective personnel standing next to the door. When the door is sealed. She looked through the glass into the corridor. at this time. A new patient just arrived. Her hospital bed was slowly pushed from the corridor.

Shi Jun on the other side happened to be looking around.

The hospital bed was pushed past their door. The man on the hospital bed seemed to be awake. Her body was covered by a white sheet. Showing her beautiful head. There is no oxygen mask. There are no hanging bottles either. Her long wavy hair was spread out on the bed. When passing by Xin's window again. She glanced at Xin with her big eyes.

She was pushed to the room next to Shi Jun. So she saw it clearly.
