Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 595 Infinite Flow Cannon Fodder (42)
The interior and exterior of the villa were quickly cleaned up, and people moved in one after another.
Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen had been gathering information outside recently, asking for work again and again, and as expected, they were given a hard time when they returned to work.
Shen Yao:......
I almost forgot my character as a cow or horse.
It’s not that Shen Yao hadn’t thought about resigning, but because the situation of the copy was unclear, she was afraid of missing out on some important information, so she endured her temper and continued to work.
"Xiao Shen, send this document to General Manager Yang, and readjust yesterday's plan."
"Xiao Shen, the company has been busy recently and everyone has to work overtime. You are the backbone of the company, so you must set an example and not let your leader be dissatisfied."
"Xiao Shen,..."
Shen Yao just listened to her leaders painting a rosy picture for her. From the company manager to the department heads, every one of them was really ambitious.
Every time Shen Yao faced it with a smile and nodded no matter what the other party said. As for the work at hand, it was just a piece of cake and there was no need to devote too much to it.
"Ahem, Sister Shen"
Xiaoling covered the corners of her mouth, leaned her neck forward, and looked around with her eyes rolling around.
Shen Yao looked sideways at her colleague who had been coughing non-stop for the past two days, and said with concern, "Let's go to the hospital."
His face was pale, his eyes were lifeless, and it seemed as if all the energy in his body had been sucked out.
The company has been very busy recently and has been working overtime a lot. Although the salary has been increased, some fragile people may not be able to bear it physically.
Xiaoling had a fever after being exposed to the rain, and although she later returned to normal, Shen Yao felt that it was only on the surface and the deep disease was still there.
Sure enough, there were coughing sounds one after another in the company, all coming from the mouths of those who had a high fever after being exposed to the rain, and the stench on their bodies was slightly stronger than what Shen Yao had smelled before.
Shen Yao privately asked many people about this stench, including those who were also taskers in the infinite world, but they didn't feel it. Even Xu Ningchen could only vaguely feel it. It seemed more like an ability of Shen Yao herself.
"Alas, the company won't give me leave. I saw Sister Ma saying something ambiguous this morning."
Xiaoling sighed and held her chin to say that her throat was just itchy and it could be relieved by taking some simple medicine. A trip to the hospital would cost hundreds of dollars. How much did she earn in a month? She couldn't bear to spend that money.
The topic came to an end here. Shen Yao got off work, and because it was a little late, she had to take a taxi.
The driver was a talkative middle-aged man who drove around Feng City every day. He complained to Shen Yao that the hospital was crowded and it was difficult for ordinary people to see a doctor for minor illnesses.
"Really? Didn't the fever just pass? There are a few young people in our company. They are in good health and enjoy eating."
"Hahahahaha, my girl, what you said is really interesting. Aren't there more people catching a cold and coughing? They are all old people and children.
I tell you, prepare some cold and anti-inflammatory medicines, so you don’t run out of medicine when you’re late.”
The uncle didn't say where he got the information, but just advised Shen Yao to buy medicine in a mysterious way.
Of course Shen Yao couldn't let the uncle down, so she ran to the pharmacy at an intersection on her way home and bought some daily medicines, spending a few hundred dollars on it.
“My daughter, it’s a good thing to listen to advice, unlike some people who always think I’m lying to them.
Hey, wait, in less than two days, all the medicine in the market will not be enough."
The uncle complained while driving and said a lot of words.
Shen Yao acted as the supporting actor, and was very supportive no matter what the uncle said. When they got off the car at the destination, they even gave him a little extra money as a thank you fee.
Uncle:......
The uncle was even happier and wanted to tell everything he knew.
Of course, some things are internal secrets. The uncle has some exposure to them because of his juniors, so he is definitely not as good as the real insiders.
After waving goodbye to the uncle whom she had only met once, Shen Yao turned and walked into the villa area. She told Xu Ningchen the news she had heard and placed the medicine bag she had bought on the coffee table.
He Jie, a rich second-generation, is living with them temporarily. This guy is uneducated and likes to enjoy life. Apart from shopping all day, he just lives a life of drunkenness and dreams.
Seeing such a big bag of medicine, He Jie shuddered, "What happened?"
"No, this is a reminder from a kind uncle," Shen Yao spread out her palms innocently, "Those who got caught in the rain and had a fever are now coughing, and the hospital has recently admitted patients of this type."
He Jie propped himself up and asked, "Are the protective clothing, masks and disinfectant we prepared earlier enough? Should we stock up some more?"
A lot of daily food and clothing supplies are stored in the basement of each villa. This time, Changping Guild and Shen Yao both came for the territory tokens. Most of them are wealthy, and the things prepared in the villas can only be regarded as backup options. What they really rely on are the things in the space.
"No need. If you hoard too much, you'll be easily investigated," Xu Ningchen took out a report and sent it to the group. The content was about a leak caused by an earthquake in a neighboring country. The page was small and the number of words was not large, but it is often at times like this that people become scared.
He Jie touched his chin and hissed, "There are many volcanoes and earthquakes next door. Don't tell me they are behind this."
Shen Yao knocked on the table, "Previous sewage discharge, subsequent rainfall."
No matter which copy, the little Sakura next door is still annoying.
The group was criticizing the immoral behavior of the people next door, but the topic inevitably turned to other directions after a while.
The taskers are all experienced, and those who dare to take on high-difficulty dungeons have life-saving methods at hand. They didn’t even touch the rainfall a few days ago.
"First there was a high fever, then a cough. Will it develop into difficulty breathing, lung infection, and finally death if rescue efforts fail?"
"Maybe vomiting and diarrhea, body aches, and eventually loss of consciousness."
“Epidemics tend to develop rapidly, and generally speaking, infectiousness and mortality cannot be achieved at the same time.
Most of the cases so far are people who have been caught in the rain, which shows that the scale of the disease is limited."
When it comes to serious matters, people in the group spoke one after another, and their words were very reasonable.
Shen Yao tapped the phone and said, "First observe the situation of these coughing people." It's a high-difficulty copy, so you have to be mentally prepared.
…………
Xiaoling became Shen Yao's observation object. The two sat at adjacent workstations and had a good relationship.
Taking this opportunity, Shen Yao used herself as the control group to compare the differences between Xiaoling, herself, and other people.
The next day, the cough worsened.
On the third day, he began to have difficulty breathing and his face turned purple, signs of lack of oxygen.
On the fourth day, his face turned pale, he couldn't eat, and he was unconscious.
Shen Yao immediately helped to dial the 120 emergency number, but unexpectedly the call failed to go through. After asking for leave from Sister Ma, Shen Yao called a taxi to take Xiaoling to the hospital.
The number of patients in the hospital was unexpectedly high, so Xiaoling was urgently arranged to the emergency room, but due to the shortage of medical staff, she could only be given a simple IV drip.
Shen Yao waited until Xiaoling's friend came to take over before she got up and left the hospital.
It was already dark by this time, and Xu Ningchen drove over to pick her up.
The smell of disinfectant in the hospital was very strong. Shen Yao got in the car and sighed, "The situation is a bit bad. I heard the nurses passing by complain that the entire hospital is short of medicine and staff, and now it is just barely holding on."
Raising her wrist and making a gesture, Shen Yao indicated that it was only five days and Xiaoling's cough had progressed very rapidly.
Xu Ningchen unscrewed the water bottle and handed it to Shen Yao, "In the previous owner group, those owners who had gone to the hospital were all thankful to have been given intravenous drips."
Because their symptoms are not as severe as other patients who suffer from high fever.
It can be seen that the several hundred dollars spent at the time was not a loss at all, it was absolutely worth it.
Driving back to the villa area, He Jie and others gathered in the lobby on the first floor, with serious expressions on their faces.
Shen Yao asked the reason with a smile. It turned out that it was an official internal notice. Although it has not yet been popularized to the whole population, when you hear the term "home isolation", you can tell that the medical conditions have collapsed.
"There are too many patients in the hospital, and we don't know the extent of the disease's spread." Home isolation is a better option, but suspending work will lead to an economic shutdown. Everything is fine in the short term, but something bad will happen in the long term.
He Jie asked Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen what they thought. They all wanted to get the territory token, whether for their own use or to sell it, so that they would have no worries about food and drink in the infinite world in the future.
"Just wait and see, the virus changes quickly." Perhaps this epidemic is not just one disease, but a continuous attack one after another.
Xu Ningchen suggested that everyone should not completely isolate themselves from the environment, but should still interact with people, as they might be able to discover some important clues.
"I always feel that this dungeon mission is a little unclear. Is there really a territory token here?"
"Of course, each territory token is difficult to obtain, otherwise why would so many people come one after another to obtain it."
Rather, this current situation of seeing flowers in the fog and the moon in the water makes everyone more convinced that there is a territory token in this copy.
It is certainly easier to clear a dungeon with a clear structure, but they don't just want to clear it. Otherwise, why would they want to break through a high-difficulty dungeon? Wouldn't it be more comfortable to just play around with medium and low-difficulty dungeons?
Shen Yao continued to work, but after only a few days, the company responded to the government's call and chose to work from home.
During this period, the number of Shen Yao's colleagues who chose to be hospitalized soared.
The good news is that everyone's recovery is generally good. The bad news is that they cannot be discharged from the hospital for the time being and can only recuperate in the corridor or makeshift wards.
"Sister Shen, I clearly feel much better, but the doctors and nurses won't let me leave the hospital. I'm locked in my room every day and can't go anywhere. Sigh..."
In the mobile phone video call, Shen Yao was chatting with Xiaoling face to face.
Xiaoling in the picture has a ruddy complexion and bright eyes. It is hard to imagine that she was seriously ill a few days ago.
Shen Yao was sitting on the sofa in casual clothes, with a work notebook in front of her.
"The doctor also took your physical condition into consideration. There is no difference between staying in the hospital and staying at home."
Even if you are seriously ill and stay at home, you don’t have the privilege of having doctors or nurses visiting you at any time.
"But," Xiaoling in the video was a little confused. She didn't know where to look up, and muttered in a low voice that the place where she lived was dark and scary, "and there were inexplicable screams at night. I really hope I can go home earlier."
Xiaoling still wants to go home. She is a little scared living here. She can’t say what the problem is, but she just can’t feel at ease.
This cannot be blamed on Xiaoling. She went to the hospital quite late and the hospital wards were not big enough to accommodate so many people, so they had to transfer those who had recovered well away.
Xiaoling is currently located in a ward converted from an old gymnasium in Feng City. It is surrounded by small separated houses, and medical staff will arrange people to check on her every day.
The small living quarters and the restriction on moving around freely made Xiaoling feel depressed and fearful.
Fortunately there is internet for communication and video chatting, otherwise Xiaoling would have made a fuss a long time ago.
After smiling and comforting Xiaoling, Shen Yao made an excuse that she was busy with work, and the two hung up the video call.
Shen Yao placed the phone on the table as if nothing had happened, opened her notebook and entered the URL to check.
Then, Shen Yao got up and called Xu Ningchen, who lived next door, to come over.
"Look at the geographical locations of these places," Have Xiaoling and others' conditions really improved?
Shen Yao's face looked a little ugly. From the map, it could be seen that the old gymnasium where Xiaoling lived was located in a remote area, and there was a hospital and research institute not far away.
That hospital had a bad reputation in Feng City. It used to be a specialist hospital that treated various infectious diseases. There was a crematorium behind the hospital, and the people who were sent there basically went in sideways to be turned into ashes.
Nowadays, hospitals are well developed and some infectious diseases are no longer serious diseases.
Gradually, the hospital was unable to admit any patients and gradually declined.
It's just that this sudden illness has given this hospital a chance to keep operating.
Xiaoling once complained in the video about the smoke and dust outside, and that she would be stopped by medical staff when she occasionally opened the window for ventilation. Shen Yao deliberately zoomed in on two locations and found that the chimney above the crematorium was facing the old gymnasium. If a timid person knew this, they would probably not dare to sleep alone at night.
"He Jie just got the news through the channel. Of the patients admitted to the hospital, only a few have been discharged so far."
Xu Ningchen and Shen Yao’s characters are both ordinary office workers, and they come into contact with many colleagues on a daily basis.
First, Shen Yao kept in touch with Xiaoling, and then Xu Ningchen called to show his warmth.
The two of them have several colleagues who are sick, and all those who are hospitalized are currently not discharged. The situation is not good if they stay at home, so they can only take medicine and wait and see. If the situation takes a turn for the worse, they will be sent to the hospital.
Later, Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen drove to the old gymnasium where Xiaoling was to inquire.
"The road ahead is closed, please take a detour."
Traffic police are responsible for intercepting vehicles, and no one except ambulances can leave.
Shen Yao and Xu Ningchen tried another path but still couldn't get around it.
Helplessly, they could only park their car in an underground parking lot not far away, and then slowly grope their way there on foot.
There are few surveillance cameras along this route and the surrounding light is relatively dim. If the two people move more quickly, they will not be discovered at all.
"You can't go forward, there's an infrared detector," Shen Yao pointed to something that was glowing not far away, and touched the wall next to her, "Climb."
The physical enhancement points make their jumping and climbing abilities several times that of ordinary people. Even those specially trained special forces cannot touch the corners of their clothes.
With a leap, Shen Yao easily climbed up the several-meter-high wall. Then, she half-crouched down, took out a telescope, and looked at the buildings in the distance with a furtive look.
