Chapter 706: District 6
The death toll is still rising, the young executive officer walked all the way, the air was filled with a disgusting smell, in addition to the rich blood and pungent disinfectant, the deceased's various organs, filth and pus also produced a strong pungent smell after dissolving and mixing, and the entourage around him took out their breathing masks and buckled them on their faces, gulping into the purified air.
One soldier tried to hand the executive a breathing mask, but the other waved his hand, frowned, and stepped into the viscous plasma with one foot deep and one foot shallow, walking deeper into the quarantine area.
There are not many people working in the quarantine area, there are hundreds of medical staff alone, and even more people can be sent here for genetic injections - this was originally an empty square used for market trading, but now it is occupied by tens of thousands of hospital beds full of people, and those medical staff are completely in a state of rotation, without a moment of rest.
As for the clean-up work in the square, it was simplified to the extreme, at first if someone died due to genetic collapse, the medical staff would carefully record his symptoms, the cause of death, and collect the corpse, and later, if someone died, half of it was to hastily pack the body in a body bag, flush a bucket of water on the ground and the bed board, and wash away the blood stains that were splashed everywhere.
Fortunately, the square was sprayed with a large amount of disinfectant, and mosquitoes and flies could not breed, otherwise I am afraid that more people would have died from the plague, malaria or some other serious infectious disease.
The executive had barely walked to the middle when the head of the medical team hurriedly greeted him.
"The executive came in person, and he couldn't greet him from afar, which is really ......"
"Come on, I'm not one of those old things who like to put on a show, this kind of polite talk will be saved next time, report the latest death toll, and in addition, is there any breakthrough in rescue?" The executive interrupted him, speaking at a rapid pace.
"Death Toll ......" As soon as the head of the medical team spoke, the body of another genetically broken person exploded on an iron bed twenty meters away, and several medical personnel quickly ran over and began to process the remains of the deceased.
"You see it too...... The numbers are changing by the minute, and the death toll is now approaching 3,100. His voice was muffled through the breathing mask.
"Three thousand...... Did you get any useful information? Don't tell me your people are just morticians and cleaners—"
"Yes, yes...... I hurried here, and I had an important discovery to report to the executive! The person in charge nodded repeatedly.
"Hurry up, don't grind!"
"Yes, yes...... Just five minutes ago, the second group discovered a special case, which was a second-level evolutionary who survived the genetic collapse, and although the tissues in his body were also severely damaged, but he did not die......"
"Survivors?! Where is he? The young executive's eyes lit up and he asked.
"I've been sent to a makeshift lab, and I'm guessing I'm undergoing an autopsy ......."
"Anatomy? You killed the only survivor? He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to slap the person in charge in the face, who was about to be sixty years old, but fortunately, he stopped his movements when he raised his hand.
"This ...... We had to do this in order to find out why he survived...... This means saving more people, and his whole body is already on the verge of failure, even if we use the best medical means to treat him, he will only have two months to live at most. Instead of ......"
The person in charge did not continue, but everyone present knew that the sentence he did not say was nothing more than "instead of living for two months, it is better to use it as research material......
"Okay, what about the results?" The executive grabbed the head of the medical team by his shoulder, pulled him over, and asked word by word.
"It takes time...... Your Excellency the Executive...... Labs take time, trust them, they are all the top talents in this industry, it only takes half an hour at most, and half an hour can draw conclusions! ”
"Half an hour, let me ask you, at the current frequency of attacks, how many people will have to die in half an hour?"
"Five hundred to eight hundred."
As soon as the head of the medical team finished speaking, an assistant behind the executive officer immediately said: "Sir, the number of deaths and the rate of growth have been calculated, according to the current mortality rate, there will be 671.4 deaths in half an hour, but if you take into account the rising mortality rate, the accurate death toll in half an hour should be between 1,121 and 1,237." ”
"A thousand...... The cost is heavy, but we can afford it, and I hope to hear something useful in half an hour......," the executive said, letting go of the head of the medical team.
"Your Excellency, the environment here is too harsh, should you consider changing places and waiting for the results of the research...... Also, Warrant Officer Eugene wants you to go over to him, you see? The assistant leaned into the executive's ear and whispered.
"Warrant Officer Eugene? Which Eugene? The executive officer asked with a frown, one glance at his assistant.
"It's Warrant Officer Eugene of the 1st Squadron of the Consortium Alliance Military Police Force, he is now the unit commander of the 6th District to hold the witnesses of the 'special situation', the news from his side, those soldiers who have been controlled are now a little unstable, and there have been several protesters, including many officers at the rank of colonel, Warrant Officer Eugene does not dare to let his subordinates use violence to suppress them wantonly, he is afraid that the situation will get out of control, so he hopes that you can go over and calm down the situation, at least, stabilize the situation......"
"Okay, then we'll go over now." The executive said.
Unlike those powerful children who have been shouting, these people are all soldiers, including a large number of naturally evolved evolutionaries, although their weapons have been taken away, but their number is much more than the guards, once there is a riot, only those under Eugene's men, I am afraid that they will not be able to control the scene.
No one can say for sure, under the influence of anxiety, suspicion, and fear, what will happen to these soldiers who have witnessed the pus and blood of their comrades, not to mention the number of officers among them, if anyone raises their arms...... The executive couldn't believe what was going to happen next.
Keeping all these witnesses in a prison-like factory is a real strategy that has no choice but to catalyze and swell negative emotions in such a confined environment, like dough with yeast...... Until the end...... "BOOM! "The ground exploded.
And what he needs to do is to find a way to calm down the emotions of these detainees before reaching the critical point of the explosion, and it is better to block them than to let these people constantly speculate in their hearts, it is better to tell them the truth of part of the matter, anyway, they have seen enough things.
As long as they were sure that their lives could be safeguarded, there would be much fewer dangers, or at least they wouldn't have to worry about witnesses rioting on the other side when dealing with the injectors.
