Chapter 805: Meeting Zhong Yi Again, He's Here Too (Two Updates Combined into One)
Jiang Fuyue also had a request: "Not too many people."
She is going to work, not a celebrity going out, so there is no need for her to be surrounded by people.
"Okay, then two, no less."
"……good."
The next day, Jiang Fuyue met the "bodyguard" assigned to her.
The two young men were wearing camouflage uniforms, with shoulders straight and backs upright. When they stood there, their long legs stretched against the sky and they looked full of energy.
From a distance, they look like two tall little poplars.
However, these are not the main points. The main point is that Jiang Fuyue knows these two "little poplars"——
"Yi Ci? Zhong Ziang?"
"Hehe..." Yi Ci showed a standard eight-tooth smile, and his beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed.
Compared to the young man in my memory who had red lips and white teeth and was a little too handsome, the skin of the man in front of me was several shades darker, and the impulsive and fearless youthful spirit between his eyebrows disappeared, replaced by solemnity and steadiness.
However, this smile made the mature look fade a little, and some of his former spirit returned. Deep down, he was still the "X the world" school bully Ci Ge.
"You never thought of that, did you?"
Jiang Fuyue: "I really didn't expect it."
Zhong Ziang spread his hands, tilted his head, and suddenly became a dandy: "Surprised? Unexpected?"
Like Yi Ci, he was tanned, but still whiter than ordinary people.
She still has the habit of slightly lifting her chin when speaking, and remains as arrogant as ever.
The same person, the same smile, but that smile was less frivolous and more serious.
They are still the same as before, but not exactly the same as before.
Just like Jiang Fuyue now, wearing a white lab coat, professional and formal, she has long lost the childishness and immaturity she had when she wore a school uniform.
If she was a flower in bud back then, then Jiang Fuyue in front of him now was a fruit gradually ripening.
Everything has changed.
Become a better self.
"Why are you here?"
Yi Ci: "Temporary transfer."
After the college entrance examination, he and Zhong Ziang both signed up for military service. It was a strange fate that they were assigned to the same class.
The main purpose of coming here this time was desert survival training. They were supposed to go back after the training, but Suweitan was short of manpower, so they were temporarily transferred here.
There were more than a dozen companions who came with him.
At first they didn't know Jiang Fuyue was here. Yesterday, their superiors suddenly found the two of them and asked them to be responsible for protecting a "key person" and gave them a lot of information.
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it, it’s Jiang Fu Yue!
"There were originally more suitable candidates, but considering that you were classmates and were more familiar with each other, we ultimately decided to send you."
The two came out of the office, still a little confused.
Zhong Ziang: "Why is Jiang Fuyue in F Continent? Shouldn't she be studying at Ming University right now?"
Yi Ci: “Just ask and you’ll know.”
Please forgive these two people for not having touched their mobile phones for a long time and having no idea what is happening in the outside world.
Later, the two men found other soldiers at the base and, speaking broken English, they were able to roughly understand the situation.
It seems that they are doing some scientific research on the Shenkwo virus, and have achieved great success so far.
Jiang Fuyue is the most critical link among them, her personal safety is of vital importance!
That’s why superiors take it so seriously.
After hearing this, Yi Ci smacked his lips and said, "She's really worthy of it."
I thought things would quiet down for a while after going to college, but I didn't expect them to become more and more outrageous.
Zhong Ziang didn't say anything, feeling very uncomfortable.
I thought I was running fast enough, but I didn't expect you to leave me further behind.
Yi Ci: "Are you going to Duhe?"
"Um."
"It's a severely affected area with many infected patients."
"I know. This trip is to see those patients."
"What?" Zhong Ziang's eyes widened. "What do you want to do?"
"Looking for new variants."
Vaccine A can effectively prevent all mutant strains discovered so far.
However, the epidemic is spreading, and the virus may mutate at any time after entering the human body, which will lead to the emergence of new mutant strains.
Whether vaccine A is immune to these undiscovered mutant strains requires further research.
The prerequisite for research is that you first have to find a new mutant strain.
After listening to this, Zhong Ziang scratched his head, his expression slightly confused: "Um... I seem to understand it, but I also seem not to."
Jiang Fuyue: “…”
"Anyway, we have to go to Duho."
Zhong Ziang: Oh, I totally understand this time.
Yi Ci: "When do we leave?"
"tomorrow."
…
On April 24, Jiang Fuyue set off from the base with the first batch of vaccines and headed for the severely affected area - Duhe!
Accompanying them were Zhong Ziang, Yi Ci, as well as transport personnel and security guards.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the off-road vehicle set off on time.
Trucks transporting vaccines followed closely behind.
The drive took a full six hours, and we only stopped once when passing through the city to refuel and have lunch.
Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci went over to get their lunch boxes and brought one for Jiang Fuyue as well.
The dishes were cold and the rice was hard. It looked unappetizing and tasted even worse.
In the past, Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci would never touch this kind of thing.
Now he can swallow it down mouthful after mouthful without changing his expression.
Because I'm used to it.
It is already good to have food to eat. During the wilderness survival training, let alone food, there is not even a drop of water. You have to find it yourself.
When I was the hungriest, I even ate insects.
The two of them quickly finished their lunch boxes and suddenly remembered that Jiang Fuyue had not received military training like them, and probably would not be used to this kind of food.
But unexpectedly——
Although the girl didn't eat as fast as them, she still ate carefully, bite by bite.
Most of the food in the box has been eaten.
Her expression was calm, without showing any disgust.
In the end, Jiang Fu Yue was too full and couldn't eat any more, so he threw away the little food that was left.
Perhaps she was choking, so she took out a bottle of mineral water from under the seat, unscrewed it, and drank two sips.
Zhong Ziang was secretly shocked and asked her, "What do you think of the taste of this food?"
Jiang Fuyue said frankly: "Not very good."
"Then you still eat?"
"Will I starve if I don't eat?"
“…” How come his awareness is so high without any training?
Seeing that the large group had no intention of setting off for the time being, Jiang Fuyue simply got off the car, put on a sun hat and started walking back and forth.
Yi Ci and Zhong Ziang also got out of the car.
Their mission is to protect Jiang Fuyue every step of the way.
There were a total of eight trucks transporting vaccines, lined up in a row like a long dragon.
Jiang Fuyue walked along the side of the road to the position of the last truck. When he was about to turn back, he suddenly found that there was an off-road vehicle following the last truck.
There's no one up there, it's empty.
She didn't think much about it. She probably arranged for someone to take care of her and went to eat.
Ever since the Wei Yuan incident, the base has been extra cautious in these areas.
Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci were temporarily transferred to provide reinforcements, probably due to this consideration.
Soon, the team continued its journey.
Finally arrived in Duho at 4pm.
Everyone put on protective clothing and masks in advance. When they entered the temporary vaccination site, everyone had a serious expression and was nervous.
Especially Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci, they should not only pay attention to their own safety, but also observe their surroundings at all times to prevent accidents.
Jiang Fuyue was protected in the middle by the two of them.
In the evening, the vaccines were unloaded and transferred to the cold storage at the vaccination site.
At this time, Jiang Fuyue, Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci were no longer in the vaccination site.
Because the three of them went to the largest local hospital as soon as they arrived.
Although it is called a hospital, its scale is not even as big as a slightly larger specialist clinic in China.
There are also two areas: emergency and inpatient.
The emergency room has been taken over by the Doctors Without Borders team. There are more than a dozen people running around and they are too busy to handle everything.
Although we tried very hard to maintain order, the patients who were shrouded in the shadow of death simply refused to listen.
They vented their panic by screaming and fought for medical resources by crying and kneeling.
There may even be physical conflicts and fights.
Faced with all this, every medical worker at the scene had an almost numb calmness in their eyes.
From the outbreak of Shenkwo last year to the current pandemic, they have been stationed here for more than half a year. From being flustered and reluctant at the beginning, they are now calm and used to it. Their hearts have long been tempered into steel.
Jiang Fuyue found the head of the medical team and explained her purpose: "I want to collect virus samples."
"Who are you?" The other person looked her up and down.
Both of them were wearing protective clothing and isolation masks, and could not see anything except each other's eyes.
Jiang Fuyue stated her identity and provided a valid work ID.
“Are you a virologist?”
Jiang Fuyue shook her head: "I'm just researching vaccines."
The person in charge nodded, putting away the wariness and precaution in his eyes: "I'll have someone take you to the inpatient area. All the patients there are critically ill. Be sure to take precautions."
"Thanks."
The person in charge waved: "Xiao Zhang, come here——"
"Doctor Wang?"
"You take them to the inpatient area for sampling."
"Now?" Xiao Zhang looked embarrassed. There were so many patients waiting and he had no time to spare.
Jiang Fuyue spoke at the right time: "It's okay, we can go there by ourselves. The main reason we told them is to get their consent."
The person in charge didn't force it, as they were so short-staffed. "Okay, everyone, make yourselves at ease. Feel free to contact us if you need anything."
Jiang Fuyue thanked him again and walked straight towards the inpatient area.
This place is scarier than the emergency room.
The hospital beds are in short supply and overcrowded, with no room to step in the corridor.
Order was once thrown into chaos.
Jiang Fuyue frowned, his expression solemn.
This was probably the first time Yi Ci and Zhong Ziang had seen such a scene, and their eyes revealed behind the isolation masks were filled with shock.
"H-They're just lying there like that?"
Jiang Fuyue cruelly reminded: "During this critical period, beds are in short supply."
As long as I can receive treatment, what does it matter if I lie on the ground?
At least it was still the hospital floor, with an IV drip, and the patient's vital signs had not disappeared.
However, some people don't even have such an opportunity because the disease comes on too suddenly and they die at home or on the way to be sent.
Almost all the local medical staff in Duhe are concentrated here, roughly estimated to be more than twenty people.
People were walking in a hurry, with fatigue and anxiety on their faces, and they were spinning like tops.
Occasionally, two people running face to face would collide with each other, and the medicine bottles would spill all over the floor. Without even having time to say sorry, they would quickly pick up the things and put them back in place, then pass each other and go their separate ways.
This is a battlefield where you race against time against death, and life is the weight in the tug-of-war between the two sides.
Maybe just one or two seconds faster can save a living person!
…
Jiang Fuyue found the head nurse and explained their purpose. She cooperated very well and took them to the innermost severe infection area.
It's quieter here than outside and there are no people in the corridors, but the risk of infection is much higher than outside.
Jiang Fuyue stopped and turned to look at Yi Ci and Zhong Ziang: "You two don't need to go in, just wait for me outside."
The two looked at each other and said, "No!"
Yi Ci: "I have a mission to perform and cannot leave without permission."
Zhong Ziang: "Our order is that wherever you go, we will follow you."
“…”
In the end, the three of them went in together.
The head nurse took them there and then left.
Before officially stepping in, Jiang Fuyue checked his own protective measures and found them to be good and no problem.
I also carefully checked Yi Ci and Zhong Ziang's, and there was no problem.
After confirming everything is correct, he stepped inside.
The two were infected by her cautious behavior and could not help but take it seriously.
Jiang Fuyue opened the box she carried with her, took out the tools from it, and then began collecting throat swabs in one ward after another.
Most of the people inside were already in a coma, relying on various instruments to keep them alive.
While Jiang Fuyue was taking samples from them, he would also observe their clinical manifestations.
But there are also patients who are awake.
They asked her where she was from.
Jiang Fuyue said, China.
An elderly man nodded and thanked her with tears in his eyes, saying that the Chinese people had helped them so much.
Since the end of last year, Doctors Without Borders have come in waves, all acting spontaneously to support them.
He thought Jiang Fuyue was one of them.
Jiang Fuyue didn't explain, she just smiled and replied, "You're welcome."
Viruses have no borders, and the destiny of mankind is shared.
The old man wiped away his tears with trembling hands.
During this period, the head nurse was worried and came to check on the patient while making rounds.
Seeing Jiang Fuyue talking and communicating with the patients smoothly, she smiled with emotion standing at the door.
When Jiang Fuyue came out of the ward, she took the initiative to ask, "Do you need help?"
Jiang Fuyue was stunned: "Is it convenient?"
"It's convenient. I'm preparing to deliver medicine to each ward."
Jiang Fuyue thought about it and did not refuse. She gave her some sterile throat swab culture tubes and blank labels, and taught her the correct way to fill in the labels.
Head Nurse: “I understand.”
Jiang Fuyue went from front to back, and the head nurse went from back to front.
With the two of them working together, the collection speed was indeed faster.
But in comparison, it can be seen that Jiang Fuyue's movements are much more agile.
Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci followed Jiang Fuyue in and out, and could only watch Jiang Fuyue busy herself among a group of patients without being able to help.
But the two never relaxed their vigilance and alertness to their surroundings.
…
It was not until it was completely dark that Jiang Fuyue collected all 134 samples and sealed them in boxes.
Before leaving the inpatient area, the three people carried out disinfection according to the procedures and changed into new protective clothing and protective masks.
Jiang Fuyue checked and confirmed it several times, and she was meticulous and cautious in every step.
This is a severely epidemic area, and the Shenkewo virus is everywhere. If you don’t take proper precautions and disinfect, you can easily be infected.
It’s true that Jiang Fuyue is not afraid of life and death, but that doesn’t mean she likes to “die”.
"Have you memorized the steps?" she suddenly asked Zhong Ziang and Yi Ci.
Zhong Ziang nodded: "Almost."
Jiang Fuyue frowned: "You must remember this completely. You must be able to replicate it by pasting it in place, not just doing it roughly."
Zhong Ziang was silent for a moment: "...Then let's go back and practice some more."
"Well, if you don't understand something, feel free to ask me."
The two nodded in agreement.
When we drove back to the temporary vaccination site, the moon was already high in the night sky, casting a bleak light over the entire temporary vaccination site.
In the distance is a sand dune desert that stretches as far as the eye can see, nearby are randomly placed tables and chairs, and in the corner are boxes of protective equipment and disposable syringes piled up.
As the three of them got off the bus and stood still, a medical officer ran up to them, looking anxious. "Where have you been? Why are you back just now? Dr. X has asked several times!"
Jiang Fuyue was stunned, the cold silver mask flashed through her mind: "Dr. X?"
"yes."
"He's here too?"
"Of course! I came here with the main force today, didn't you know?"
Jiang Fuyue then realized who was in the SUV following behind.
One of them was at the front and the other at the back, and they didn't meet each other during the period. It seemed so normal.
"You said he asked about us?" Jiang Fuyue raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, let's go in quickly..."
Been waiting for a long time.
