32 days

Delivery is not as difficult as Yi Alan imagined.

Of course, based on the superficial knowledge obtained from Baidu, Yi Alan speculated that the mother should have had a cervix of more than three fingers very early. If there were no accidents, she would have given birth a long time ago.Perhaps it was all the doctors, nurses and family members who suddenly disappeared, which caused the mother to be greatly frightened and interrupt the delivery process. It was not until he and Zhou Yan'an arrived and gave the mother a new support that she had the courage and strength to continue the delivery.

The strength and tenacity of women made Yi Alan amazed.

An hour later, he heard a baby crying.

Seeing that wrinkled little face, Yi Alan still felt a little unreal. He actually delivered a baby on the day before the end of the world.

"It's a little boy weighing about seven catties." Zhou Yanan showed the baby to the anxious mother.

The exhausted mother smiled, her sallow face glowed with happiness, and she raised her hand with difficulty to hold the baby's tender little hand.She was already very tired, and wanted to have a good sleep, but she couldn't bear to close her eyes. Her throat was dry and hoarse, and she couldn't make a complete sound. She just screamed a few vague syllables, maybe Call her the baby name she has already chosen.

Yi Alan and Zhou Yanan looked at each other and smiled with relief.

But in fact, they still face greater challenges. The condition of the mother and the baby is not very good. It is still unknown whether they can live well without the care of professional doctors and nurses.

The two of them did some simple cleaning and disinfection work for the mother and baby, and pushed the mother out of the operating room and back to the empty ward.

Yi Alan didn't know much about nursing care for the parturient, and Baidu came with a half-knowledge, so she had to put glucose and salt water on the parturient temporarily to maintain her basic physical fitness.

Zhou Yanan found a nursery box from the newborn care center and placed it next to the maternity bed, so that the mother who was still in shock could see her baby at any time.

The use of the nursery box was learned temporarily by Yi Alan following the teaching videos of nurses on his mobile phone. He is sincerely grateful to the inventor and improver of the nursery box. He did not use some complicated and difficult operations. Basic operation.

When the mother insisted on feeding the baby with colostrum and finally fell asleep in peace, and the baby stayed behind the incubator without making any noise, Yi Alan sat down on the ground regardless of her image, sweating from her forehead.He didn't do any physical work, but what he experienced in the past few hours was enough to exhaust all his physical strength.

Zhou Yan'an was only a little better than Yi Alan. Even if he expected the end of the world would happen in his lifetime, he probably didn't expect to have to deliver a baby.

After a short rest, Zhou Yanan signaled Yi Alan to go outside the ward.

"I'll go to the hospital cafeteria to get you something to eat. What do you want to eat? You must be hungry. It's already afternoon..." Zhou Yan'an glanced at the time on his phone, his calm expression relaxed a little, and he spoke hesitantly, "Ten It's two o'clock."

Yi Alan was so flattered that she didn't notice Zhou Yan'an's brief surprise: "Anything is fine."

"Are there any taboos?" Zhou Yan'an asked.

Yi Alan shook his head hastily. He saw Zhou Yan'an open a web page "What should new mothers eat", he was funny and helpless for a moment

"I'm going to trouble you to take care of me here. It will take a long time for me to leave." Zhou Yan'an said, "I'm going to check if there are any patients left on other floors. Otherwise, so many instruments are easy to short-circuit and catch fire; on the other hand, it is also to save electricity. If there is a problem with the main power grid and cause a power outage, the hospital should have a backup power supply, so that those electrical appliances that do not work cannot consume a small amount of electricity. We still have a couple of women and children to take care of."

Yi Alan nodded repeatedly, but he hadn't realized these trivial but actually important issues.

After Zhou Yan'an finished speaking, she went to the end of the corridor to pry open the fire cabinet, took out a red fire axe, and handed it to Yi Alan when she came back, "Although I don't think there is a fifth life in this building, just in case, you'd better It’s better to hold a weapon for self-defense. But don’t carry it directly in your hand, it will scare others, and it’s easy to be frightened and hurt yourself.”

"Thank you." Yi Alan took the fire axe, looked at it, put the fire ax on an empty bed near the door in the ward, and covered it with a pillow.If there were people, or something, who wanted to harm them, he could at least try to keep the gangsters away from the mother and child.

Only then did Zhou Yan'an leave, and Yi Alan watched his vigorous back disappear into the stairwell, and the sound of light footsteps quickly became inaudible.The utter silence enveloped Yi Alan, and he had already begun to rely on a stranger whom he had only known for five hours.

Yi Alan suppressed the panic rising in his heart, he had to learn to be as calm as Zhou Yan'an, and he had to do something serious.

An hour and a half later, when Zhou Yanan came back, she saw Yi Alan sitting cross-legged on the floor of the ward, facing the medical equipment and incubator for the parturient, and the computer brought from the doctor's office was placed on the chair in front of her.He was operating the computer while ensuring that he could see the signs of the mother and baby.

"I don't have time to do too complicated things." Zhou Yan'an put a bowl of pasta beside Yi Alan, and then put the rice soup and egg soup in the insulated bucket on the bedside table of the parturient, so that she can eat it when she wakes up.

Yi Alan was really hungry, and besides, the program was running automatically now, so he didn't need to do it, so he picked up the bowl and ate it. At first, he swallowed two mouthfuls without feeling the taste, and then he marveled at the good taste of the noodles.It looks like just ordinary instant noodles, with a handful of green vegetables and a spoonful of impromptu diced meat and bean curd sauce added, but the noodle soup is very delicious, it seems to be boiled with meat and meat, and the miscellaneous sauce is neither salty nor bland, just tasty.

Yi Alan gave a thumbs up: "The cooking skills are awesome!"

"I usually like to cook something to eat when I have nothing to do." Zhou Yan'an smiled modestly. He looked at the computer screen and swiped through a lot of codes. The interface was not a regular web page. He asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Yi Alan said while eating: "I wrote a crawler program to automatically grab new developments in various large and small forums and communities on the Internet. Now the Internet is still available. If there are other people in this world, they should be able to use the Internet. For help. By the way, I also found out..."

Zhou Yanan frowned: "Are you a geek?"

"This word is so cool, it doesn't count." Yi Alan interrupted the topic she originally wanted to talk about, and laughed at herself: "I'm a social animal who does artificial intelligence programming. I stay up late and work overtime to make artificial intelligence more powerful, so that I can carry robots. To liberate the vast labor force, but I am afraid that I will not be able to liberate the poor people in a short time."

Zhou Yan'an nodded: "But you should also be proficient in hacking techniques, right?"

"As long as you have a deep enough understanding of various programming languages, you can use them in much the same way." Yi Alan acquiesced.

Zhou Yanan clapped her hands lightly: "Very good, then you should be able to hack into the hospital's security system to check the monitoring?"

Yi Alan was stunned, yes, such a simple matter of watching surveillance was ignored by him.It's also because he's used to being safe and secure, and hasn't developed a hacker awareness.

Yi Alan stood up immediately, her excitement was beyond words. After checking the surveillance video in the middle of the night, she might know what happened in this world.

Zhou Yan'an said: "I went to the monitoring room to check when I was at the police station, but unfortunately, an authorized account and password are required to retrieve previous surveillance videos, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Yi Alan suddenly felt ashamed, Zhou Yan'an's sharp mind could survive the apocalypse, even if he had a skill, he didn't know how to use it well.

The mother and baby were sleeping soundly, and Zhou Yan'an had inspected the building before to ensure temporary safety, so Yi Alan and Zhou Yan'an felt relieved to let them stay alone for a while, and went straight to the security room.

It’s not impossible for Yi Alan to hack into the monitoring system remotely, but the monitoring host is placed in the security room and no one is guarding it. He only needs to crack the login password on the main storage computer to retrieve the monitoring video at any time. A large circle of long-range attacks is a waste of time.

The five monitoring screens in the security room are still dedicatedly monitoring the empty hospital, and the low-quality video sets off the atmosphere of a horror movie.

Yi Alan cracked the password in just 3 minutes and successfully logged into the account.When calling up the surveillance video of the past ten hours, Yi Alan was a little hesitant to touch the mouse. He was actually afraid, afraid of seeing something he could not accept from the video.

He turned his head to look at Zhou Yan'an who was standing beside him.Zhou Yan'an seemed to know his timidity, and put a hand on his shoulder.In fact, Yi Alan is not used to having physical contact with others, but I have to say that Zhou Yanan made this gesture, which gave him great comfort and encouragement, and did not use redundant words to make him feel ashamed.

Yi Alan had previously speculated that the accident occurred at around two or three o'clock in the night based on the situation of the vehicle burnt down, so he broadcast the monitoring from twelve o'clock in the morning in several key areas such as the emergency room, outpatient hall, several nurse stations and hospital corridors at the same time. video.

At the beginning, everything was normal, the lights were bright, there were nurses on duty at the nurse station, and there were occasional patients in the corridor who were so tortured that they couldn’t sleep. Even though it was midnight, there were many people coming to the outpatient hall to seek medical treatment, and there were people queuing up in the emergency hall. There are even more of them, and many of them are carried over by alcoholism.

Yi Alan’s mother, Yue Ximing, is the attending physician for trauma. It was not until a dying patient was sent to the emergency department whether it was a car accident or a fight. emergency surgery.

Yi Alan noticed her and immediately held her breath, following the figure in the video.

The accident happened around this time, 31:[-] in the morning.

But Yi Alan and Zhou Yan'an didn't see clearly how the accident happened. In the blink of an eye, the video jumped to an empty scene, like a poorly crafted frame-skipping edit.

Yi Alan immediately pulled back the time point of the video for a short period of time, and then played it in super slow speed, turning the picture frame by frame.

Then Yi Alan saw a scene that he will never forget and never understand: in the last frame, the doctors and nurses were still running, and the busyness and anxiety and the pain and struggle of the patients could overflow through the screen; the next frame , everyone disappeared, without warning, without beginning, without phenomenon, the white coat had already withered from mid-air like a rose flower without a climbing frame, the medicine tray that should have been in the hands of the nurse was smashed on the ground, and the drip bottle was persistent. The medicine was dripped on the hospital bed and the floor without a destination, and the pain endured by the waiting patients disappeared with them, leaving only the light and fluffy clothes... A hospital that condenses the survival instinct of all people. There was a moment of silence so that there was neither life nor death.

God said disappear, and they disappeared.
