Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 187 Emergency
"I thought this was bad enough, but a while ago, we went out in the sun and our skin got tanned, and it's getting darker. But people who have been in the sun with us haven't seen such a big change. We guess it's because our family is exposed to less energy and rain, so we're particularly prone to getting tanned!"
Zhang Heping nodded. He really had no ability to help Song Qingqing with the problems she was facing.
Although he had a lot of energy rainwater at home, he couldn't just give it away to others. Moreover, with the example of Song Longlong, he didn't dare to give the energy rainwater to others.
Zhang Heping still remembered that last year, Shen Yanming asked him to test whether there were any parasites in the energy rainwater they collected.
The test results showed that although the energy rainwater they collected was mixed with some ordinary rainwater, after testing, the water quality was super pure and not much different from pure water.
At that time, he really thought that the energy rainwater could be drunk, but he didn't expect that this thing could strengthen all living things indiscriminately. It was okay for healthy people to drink it, but once someone was in a similar situation as Song Longlong, drinking this energy rainwater could really be fatal!
After Song Qingqing said these words, she felt a lot more relaxed. Over such a long time, her family's aged appearance and Longlong's illness that could not be diagnosed made her feel very stressed, but she had no one to vent.
Although saying these things to Zhang Heping today would not help solve their family's predicament, after saying these words, it was as if a huge stone had been lifted from her heart, and Song Qingqing felt that she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Well, I just talked so much because I met someone I know. I hope you don't mind."
"It's okay, just think of it as listening to a story." Zhang Heping originally wanted to comfort Song Qingqing, but as soon as he said this, he felt something was wrong, as if he was disrespectful.
"Sorry, that's not what I meant. I mean..." Zhang Heping wanted to explain that he was just a listener and had no intention of laughing at the joke, but he didn't know how to express it.
"It's okay. We've suffered a lot of cold stares over the past six months, and we've become mentally strong. It's just that when we meet acquaintances, we still feel a little, um, how should I put it, like wanting to escape.
I am afraid that the other party will find out about my shame, and laugh at my incompetence, so I hide from you. In front of you, I..."
Song bit her lips lightly and uttered two words with difficulty, "Inferiority complex!"
Zhang Heping didn't expect Song Qingqing to say that. He opened his mouth to comfort her, but before he could say anything, Song Qingqing smiled.
"It's okay. I feel relieved when I talk it out. I've seen a lot of people and things in the past six months. I don't know why I have the urge to talk today.
Haha, it's okay, it's good, it's good to be alive these days."
Song Qingqing raised his head and looked at Zhang Heping. "Okay, I don't have anything to do. You must be very busy. I saw you were still reading some information when you bumped into me."
"Well, I've been a bit busy lately."
"Then hurry up and get to work. I'll go to the inpatient department after Longlong finishes dialysis. We're on the 7th floor, in Ward 735."
Zhang Heping nodded, "You know my office, come find me if you need anything!"
Song smiled softly, "Okay!"
Although Song Qingqing agreed, she knew that she would not go to find Zhang Heping unless it was something serious. The gap between them was getting bigger and bigger. It was impossible for them to be together before, and it would be even more impossible in the future.
After Zhang Heping returned to the office, he thought for a while, took out half of the dried meat and milk lumps that Shen Yanming had given him from the cabinet, and prepared to give them to Song Qingqing, as a last favor after their acquaintance.
Zhang Heping put the dried meat and milk lumps into a black plastic bag, then locked the cabinet door, picked up his things and prepared to look for Song Qingqing. Unexpectedly, he heard the alarm in the hospital before he even left the office.
It's an emergency?
Zhang Heping threw his things on the desk and ran out without locking the door. When he reached the lobby, he found that the hospital security was closing the door, the doctors and nurses were running to the conference room, and the patients and their families in the lobby were in panic.
Seeing the head nurse comforting patients and their families in the lobby, Zhang Heping followed the crowd and ran towards the meeting room.
When we got there, we found that it was already crowded inside and those who arrived later couldn't squeeze in at the door.
The dean directly held the wireless microphone and said: "Those of you at the door, don't push in. Listen to what I say and leave. Let those who didn't hear come in and listen to the announcement.
Now, we have received some very bad news from the Imperial Capital. The fever patients we received are highly contagious.
The reason why human-to-human transmission has only been discovered now is because the incubation period is as long as half a month. The disease came from the Imperial Capital, and our close contacts have not yet passed the incubation period, so they did not show symptoms of fever.
However, the Imperial Capital has confirmed that the disease can be transmitted from person to person, and there have been deaths there."
Zhang Heping felt his hands and feet go cold when he heard this. This was the worst possible situation!
"Right now, the research institute is still unsure of the specific route of transmission, and has no targeted treatment.
Therefore, anyone who has had close contact with a fever patient needs to be isolated.
However, apart from the patients' families, those of us working on the front lines are close contacts, but the special nature of our jobs does not allow us to self-isolate.
Therefore, when working in the future, everyone needs to put on disposable protective clothing, disposable gloves, masks and goggles.
Let everyone take protective measures, not only to protect themselves, but also to protect others to a greater extent. "
The director paused and said, "During this period, everyone knows how many times they have come into contact with fever patients, but no one knows whether they have been infected or not. Compared with other patients, it seems that we are the high-risk group."
The dean sighed, "Well, let's take precautions first, maybe with luck, everyone will be fine.
Okay, everyone in the conference room should leave, and let those outside who didn’t hear it come in.
Just do what you need to do and don’t be sad or anything like that. What should have happened has happened. We must trust the Qinghe Alliance and the Institute. No one will be more anxious than them. The Qinghe Alliance will never give up on any of its citizens. "
Zhang Heping walked out of the conference room with heavy steps. He was shivering all over and called Shen Yanming, "Old Shen, stay home and don't go out. Got it?"
Shen Yanming's heart skipped a beat, "Are you sure?"
"Um."
Shen Yanming's throat was a little dry, "You, take precautions, I'll wait for you at home!"
