Superstars of Tomorrow

In a lounge in Zone B, fifth floor, Unit 1, Experimental Building.

The young experimenter in white overalls had blood flowing from his forehead, his lips were as pale as his face, and his whole body was trembling with extreme fear. Big drops, whether it was tears or sweat, slid to the ground.

On his neck, the sharp blade radiated cold air, and goose bumps appeared on his neck.

The man holding the knife had gloomy eyes, and the exposed skin was strangely red as if it had been scalded by hot water. Blood spots were oozing out one by one, and his breathing was short of breath.

The man holding the knife was the target of the island guards. The young experimenter who was threatened by him was a student of Nick Building Management. Here he can only do some chores, and play soy sauce with the project team leader, but this is enough for him to show off.

Today, as usual, he finished what he was assigned, and came here to rest for a while. As soon as he came in, he received a notice from the building manager, Mr. Nick, asking everyone to stay indoors as much as possible, and at the same time cooperate with the search. Report any abnormalities immediately. Ten minutes ago, a guard came over to inquire, and he said that everything was normal and he did not see any suspicious persons. The guard also told him to lock the door while inside, which he did.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the guard left, he locked the door, turned around and found a person coming out of the freezer.

The young experimenter felt that his luck was really bad today. The experiment was not going well, and this kind of thing happened again. He resisted, but he stayed in the laboratory all year round and lacked exercise. Now, his head still hurts, but his fear made him ignore the pain, and he didn't even know that his forehead was bleeding.

The young experimenter thought that his life was in danger, but time passed, and the intruder did not intend to kill him immediately, nor did he appear to flee, nor did he ask any secrets about the laboratory, his bloodshot eyes kept Stare at the door.

The initial fear passed, and gradually regained a bit of reason. The young experimenter did not dare to look directly at the intruder, but looked at the opponent's hand holding the knife from the corner of his eye. The blood spots on the opponent's forearm made his pupils shrink suddenly, and then he caught a glimpse of the sealed bottle in the opponent's other hand, and the tears that had just stopped burst into tears again.

He is too familiar with that kind of sealed bottle. As a person in the direction of virus research, he sees that kind of sealed bottle every day. It was loaded with viruses, but now, the sealed bottle in the other party's hand is open, which means that the lounge has been contaminated.

"It's time... almost..." The person holding the knife seemed to be in great pain every time he took a breath. As he spoke, the blood rushed straight into his throat, spewing out a mouthful of blood.

Looking at the blood splattered on his body, the experimenter's teeth chattered.

The other party showed a crazy smile, without saying much, covered the experimenter's mouth with a rag, and gave the experimenter a head, knocking the wound that had stopped bleeding to bleed again.

Outside the lounge door.

Fang Zhao stopped after tracking here. He raised his hand and gestured "back" to the guards who were coming towards him.

Zhao Chao and the captain of the guard, who saw this scene in the surveillance, frowned in surprise.

"What does he mean?" asked the captain of the guard.

"Maybe I heard something." Zhao Chao's face changed suddenly when he received the message from Fang Zhao.

The captain of the guard was also in a cold sweat, and contacted the people who followed Fang Zhao on that floor, telling them not to lean over for the time being, and wait for orders. At the same time, another team that changed into virus protective suits quickly walked over there.

"It's too late." Nick's building management started the isolation procedure on that floor.

The next moment, the door of the lounge in front of Fang Zhao opened.

The experimenter, whose consciousness was already blurred, could no longer see the situation in front of him clearly. He knew that he was blocked in front of him as a meat shield, and the door of the lounge was opened. He was very anxious. He knew the consequences of the virus escaping. He wanted to shout , Tell everyone what happened here, and asked Nick Lou to start the anti-virus and isolation procedures, but he couldn't make a sound. He only saw a figure in front of him, and then...

boom!

The experimenter felt the hands like the claws of death on his back loosen.

Behind him, the target pursued by the inspection team and the guards had blood splattered on his forehead, and he died with regret.

In the monitoring room of the building, the two captains were just about to urge the snipers to take their positions, when Fang Zhao raised his hand and shot on the monitoring screen.

Fang Zhao's voice came from Zhao Chao's earphones: "Report to the captain, the target has been killed."

Zhao Chao: "..."

Captain of the Island Guard: "..."

The inspection team led by Zhao Chao usually assists in tracking and arresting, and when something happens, the guards rush forward, and it is rare to encounter situations that are faster than the island guards.

As for the situation just now, taking action requires great courage and precise judgment.

The experienced island guards know that when encountering such a situation, they can be killed immediately with one shot, but the members of the inspection team are gentler in comparison. Even if there are inspection members with good marksmanship, they may consider blocking the front The experimenter, or thinking about whether to save the target's life for subsequent interrogation, hesitated to shoot, missed the opportunity, and caused greater losses.

The members of the security team who stood a little far away but clearly saw Fang Zhao shooting sharply thought to themselves: Oh, gentle?

No matter what everyone thinks, now the target has been killed, the spread of the virus has been controlled in a small area, and everyone in that area has been taken away for isolation.

Nick Lou managed to get information about the virus very quickly.

"A synthetic virus created by some deadly people is not a finished product, but a semi-finished product. It spreads through the air and has limited ability to invade susceptible organisms. However, it is also very troublesome to be successfully invaded by it. The onset time varies according to different conditions. Physical fitness can range from a few minutes to ten or twenty days. According to the experimental data we have obtained, the longest is twenty-nine days. The incubation period is difficult to detect. I am afraid you will need to be quarantined here for a month.

In other words, even if the Whale Island meeting is over, you can't go back for the festival. Welcome to the Remembrance Day team. "

In the new century, Memorial Day is the most important festival of the year. Office workers have a rare long holiday, and it is also the best day of reunion in the year.

Not long before coming to Jingdao District, when Fang Zhao was on the phone with Mrs. Fang, the Mrs. Fang asked Fang Zhao to go back to Yanzhou this year for the festival.

In this situation, I'm afraid I can't go back. I have to explain it to Mrs. Fang.

However, now is not the time to think about these things.

"If the virus is confirmed to be infected, can it be cured? What is the mortality rate?" Fang Zhao asked.

"It can be cured. The mortality rate of this virus is not high, only 17%." Nick Louguan said.

Zhao Chao, who had been silent by the side, almost jumped up when he heard this. A mortality rate of 17% is already high! ! That is to say, people like Nick who have been in contact with deadly viruses all day long will feel that this statistic is low!

As the captain of the inspection team, Zhao Chao felt guilty looking at Fang Zhao who was in isolation. Fang Zhao is not yet thirty years old and is still a temporary worker. If the situation is not critical, he would not let Fang Zhao rush forward.

The rest of the guards were fine this time. Because of Fang Zhao's reminder, the team did not approach. After the target was killed, they were quarantined quickly, and the possibility of them being infected with the virus was very low. The only ones in danger now are Fang Zhao and that unlucky experimenter.

"How is the experimenter injured?" Fang Zhao asked.

"It's okay, although he was injured a little bit, but luckily, he was injected with two antidotes yesterday because of the need for the experiment, and these two antidotes happen to have a certain preventive effect on this synthetic virus, and the efficacy period is 24 hours , It hasn’t timed out yet. But isolation observation is still needed, even if he recovers from his injuries, he will be isolated for a month like you. Both of you, as well as the security team on that floor, must join the left-behind team on Memorial Day.” Nick Lou tube said.

Zhao Chao felt even more guilty. Nick, this means that Fang Zhao is the only one in danger?

Someone in the literary and art circles was doing well, but was called to perform tasks and was quarantined. Quarantine is fine, as long as you don't get sick, a month will pass quickly. But if you get sick...

Zhao Chao wanted to comfort Fang Zhao, but just as he was about to speak, he heard Fang Zhao ask again: "The person who was killed should not have been exposed to the virus for a long time. Now it seems that he only opened the virus seal after he entered the lounge. bottle? Where did the virus come from?"

Guan Nick nodded, "The result of the test now is that only one piece is contaminated, so he did open the sealed bottle after entering that lounge, and it takes time to open this kind of sealed bottle. It doesn't matter where the virus came from." I know, it’s a matter of the Bureau of Investigation. As for why he had an attack so quickly, it’s because he was stimulated by drugs, the neuromuscular was overexcited, and then the cells and organs functioned abnormally.”

"Things are wrong." Fang Zhao said, "It's not over yet."

Before Zhao Chao and Nick could ask any more questions, they received the communication almost at the same time.

Just now, after the captain of the guard asked the injured experimenter some details, he also had a bad feeling, and asked the other two units of the experimental building to check himself again, and then received a bottle missing from the third unit of the experimental building. Super virus reply.

The management of the third unit was careless, and someone took advantage of the loopholes. The building management must be dismissed, but now is not the time to hold anyone accountable.

Zhao Chao immediately contacted the people in the team and transferred the dog who was good at this aspect in the inspection team.

Nick Louguan's expression was not good, but he was not irritable.

"The lost one is also a synthetic virus, but it belongs to the super virus level. If the virus escapes, all the vertebrates in the entire Whale Island area will suffer. However, for this level of virus, the sealed bottle is multi-layer encrypted , the material is special, and it takes a lot of time to force it to open. With the current search efforts in the island area, the person who stole the virus has no time to open it. But if he is allowed to escape, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and all the gates in the island area are now closed." Zhao Chao looked at Fang Zhao, "I borrow your curly hair."

Many inspection dogs only obey the orders of the trainers. Curly is just a dog with a non-professional background. It is smart but has no sense of the big picture and no sense of responsibility. It only listens to Fang Zhao. Zhao Chao could only bring it to Fang Zhao.

When Curly saw Fang Zhao, he wanted to rush forward, and when he touched the safety glass, he wanted to raise his claws to grab it, but Fang Zhao stopped him.

"Curly hair, take Captain Zhao Chao to search for people, find the lost bottle of virus, don't let the thief leave Whale Island!"

Curly squatted in front of the safety glass and moaned, unwilling.

Fang Zhao squatted down and looked at the curly hair outside the safety glass of the isolation room: "I can't get out now, let Captain Zhao Chao take you out of the mission, after completing the mission, go back and take you to play a new game."

Because there were other people around, Fang Zhao didn't dare to speak too clearly, but Curly understood Fang Zhao's meaning, his drooping ears instantly stood up, tail flicked, looked at Fang Zhao, and walked in front of Zhao Chao.

Zhao Chao recalled what Fang Zhao said to Curly just now, and categorized them——

One, find the missing bottle of virus.

Second, prevent those who steal the virus from leaving the island.

Nothing missing, should be fine.

I didn't finish coding yesterday.

See you tomorrow.
