When the epidemic was discovered, all the police forces in Yunhai City had been mobilized.
The public service system of the other ranks still had the most basic staffers to maintain the operation of Yunhai City. Only Zhang Chengtai could mobilize these civil servants.
" But..." Zhang Chengtai's face was still filled with despair.
"No buts!" "Chief Zhang, the epidemic is out of control. No one knows when the next outbreak will happen!" Liu Mingsong shouted. Currently, the epidemic was only spreading in Changning District. It was not too late to seal off the entire Changning District! If the epidemic spreads to other districts or even other cities, you and I will be sinners of the country!”
"I understand." Zhang Chengtai had been in this position for a few years.
After being reprimanded by Liu Mingsong, he finally came back to his senses and began to give orders to the public servants in the other districts to block the streets and routes.
At this time, the experts of the analysis team also made a preliminary analysis.
"How is it?"
Liu Mingsong massaged his temples and walked to the analysis team.
" Chief…the situation is not good…"
A white-haired analyst said in fear,""According to the information we have so far, once these infected people have formed a scale, it will be difficult to lock down and control them without several times their number!”
"Moreover, from the spread of the infected people in the surveillance cameras, these infected people…are like…like…"
"Like what?" Liu Mingsong said anxiously.
"It's as if someone is controlling these infected people from behind and allowing them to spread at the fastest speed possible…" The analyst was a little hesitant.
"Impossible!" Liu Mingsong frowned and said decisively,"The infected have all lost their minds and are only left with their instincts. This is the conclusion reached by many hospitals and scientific research institutions. How could he control the behavior of such an infected person?”
"There is another possibility." The analyst thought for a moment and said," The other possibility is that these infected people have developed some kind of collective consciousness. From the moment they found the infected, they showed a characteristic, which is to spread the virus in their bodies. In the beginning, most of the infected would immediately change their target after biting a person and look for the next person.”
"If it was an ordinary infectious disease, it would be impossible for it to have such characteristics. The biggest possibility is that these infected have already developed some kind of collective consciousness. The purpose of this collective consciousness is to expand as soon as possible and strengthen themselves…"
"The collective consciousness…is it like ants and bees?”" Yes," Liu Mingsong thought for a moment and said," Submit the mutation of the infected person and your analysis results to the hospital and scientific research institutions. Let them carry out a deeper analysis." Have you analyzed the future spread of the infected?”
" The analysis is out…" The analyst wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in a trembling voice,""According to our preliminary analysis, after the mutation, the speed at which the infected spread the virus has more than doubled!”
"Currently, the number of infected people is more than 13,000. In half an hour, the number of infected people may reach 30,000. In an hour, the number of infected people…may reach 100,000!”
"100,000!"
Liu Mingsong slammed his fist on the table.
He was not a medical scientist or biologist, so he could not understand how the infected developed a collective consciousness. He wasn't an expert in analysis, so he couldn't calculate the spreading range and speed of the infected from a few pieces of data.
However, he knew what it meant for 100,000 infected people to appear in Changning District!
This meant that Changning District had fallen completely!
As one of the largest coastal cities in the Huaxia Empire, Yunhai City had a population of ten million. Changning District alone had a population of over a million.
A hundred thousand infected people had appeared in the densely populated urban area. With their aggressiveness and spread, it would not be long before this number became hundreds of thousands!
At that time, not only would Changning District fall, but the entire Yunhai City would fall!
There were a total of ten million people!
Even during the war a hundred years ago, how many people in China died?!
Dozens of hospitals and research institutes were conducting research on infected people and the virus in hopes of coming up with a treatment plan or a plan to suppress the epidemic, but there was no progress.
It could be said that after becoming infected, although these people were still identified as patients, they were not much different from dead people...
Liu Mingsong felt a chill in his heart. He asked with difficulty,"What if…what if the army can arrive within an hour?”
The analyst shook his head in fear and said,""Chief, you know very well that the military region closest to Yunhai City only has 100,000 troops stationed there. Even if these 100,000 people can all arrive within an hour, it will be difficult to stop the spread of the epidemic…"
"This is the city! Unless they went on a killing spree, it would be difficult to control the infected without several times the number of people!”
Liu Mingsong's heart trembled and he fell silent.
Whether it was him, Zhang Chengtai, or the analyst, they all knew that there was actually the fastest and most thorough way to solve the epidemic, and that was to kill!
The infected were powerful, irrational, and tireless, but they were still at the human level. The infection could only be transmitted through bites and bodily fluids.
If the infected were found in the early stages, a few armed police officers would be able to kill the epidemic.
Even now, as long as 100,000 troops arrived, they could easily eliminate these infected.
However!
No one dared to give such an order!
Liu Mingsong did not dare, Zhang Chengtai did not dare, and the Imperial Cabinet did not dare!
Before confirming that these infected people were no longer human and could no longer be cured, even the emperor, who was the symbol of Huaxia's spirit, did not dare to give such an order!
According to the current judgment, the infected were still humans, patients, and Chinese.
Anyone who issued a massacre order would be nailed to the pillar of shame and go down in history!
"100,000."
After punching out and venting his anger, Liu Mingsong calmed down.
He looked around the command center and said,"The analysis team will continue to analyze. The receiver should not leave his post. The rest of you, come with me to Changning District! Even if it's difficult to resist, we have to give it a try!”
