Chapter 96 Let's Die Together
Many people did not want to pay the money, so they started gathering and causing trouble at the resettlement sites.
However, officials neither sent anyone to suppress nor to evacuate the rioters.
Let them make trouble!
It’s just that the official broadcasts some words over and over again.
These words are all about the symptoms and consequences caused by the T1 virus.
Let everyone enter the room and avoid being exposed to the poisonous fog. Be careful of infection!
Some people didn't take it seriously at first.
However, when the officials issued another notice, anyone who did not cause trouble that day would be given a free mask the next day.
Everyone can supervise and report each other.
If the situation of the person reported is true, he will not be eligible for the free masks distributed the next day.
Not only that, the authorities will not provide food to the rioters and will even deprive them of the right to purchase supplies!
Those in serious cases will be forcibly taken away. The official side has some areas where manpower is needed, such as retrieving supplies from the water.
In troubled times, severe punishments should be used!
The disaster-stricken area across the country is too large, and the authorities may not be able to take care of some phenomena in other places.
However, at the resettlement site right under our noses, we may not be able to take care of the trivial matters of the family.
But the authorities have plenty of ways to deal with such major incidents.
After all, the government holds the lifeline of drinking water firmly in its hands, who would dare to really make trouble?
In fact, most of the people who cause trouble are just following the herd mentality.
They believe that as long as there are enough people, even if they cannot get the benefits they want, they will not be held responsible for the majority and they do not need to take any major responsibility.
But when causing trouble involves life, few people have the courage to do so.
Their food and daily necessities all depend on the resettlement site, so food is easy to solve. Now is not the time when food is really in short supply, and there are always people willing to sell some food at a high price.
But what about the others?
Such as masks and protective clothing?
These are things that concern your life.
Those who are still staying in the resettlement site are those who are very afraid of death. They don't leave because they are afraid of the poisonous fog outside.
Who among them would be willing to sell these life-saving items at this time?
Without masks and protective clothing, they can indeed hide in their rooms most of the time without coming out.
After all, there is glass in the room, so not much poisonous fog comes in.
But how can they cause trouble if they are hiding in the room all the time?
Therefore, the authorities do not need to suppress these troublemakers. As long as they control their lifelines, who can still cause trouble?
After all, nothing is more important than your own life.
The people who had caused the trouble gradually calmed down, so many people began to question.
Questioning why those infected people should be taken to resettlement sites for quarantine?
Isn't it said that the infectiousness is very low?
Can't we just let them isolate themselves at home and wait?
Ordinary people naturally cannot imagine the official intention of doing this.
It’s true that the infectiousness is very low!
But on the one hand, the authorities also need these cases to be treated slowly in order to find the best treatment plan.
Secondly, people infected with the late stage of the T1 virus will attack others crazily, and their attacks are indiscriminate.
I won't hold back even if they are my closest relatives!
The authorities have a third purpose for gathering these infected people together.
That's the worst possible scenario.
Only Han Ying, the reborn person, knows this worst-case scenario.
That means there is no possibility of recovery for people infected with this virus!
So what should we do when these infected people know about this, or when they wait and see no results from treatment?
What happens when they are desperate?
They will either find a way to settle the past grudges, or they will start a newspaper!
Anyway, I am destined to die, so it would be a good thing to drag some people I disliked in the past to take them with me before I die.
Also, why would I be infected and die, but you can live well?
Since I'm going to die, you guys can forget about living a good life. If we die, we die together!
A large proportion of the desperate infected people have this idea.
By then, the whole country will be filled with unwilling infected people burning, killing, looting, raping and plundering.
The infected people have been infected and are no longer afraid of the poisonous fog outside.
But those who are not infected not only have to worry about the poisonous fog outside, but also have to resist the infected people who break into their homes and kill people.
At that time, the entire social order will be destroyed overnight.
It is no exaggeration to say that people were living in misery and corpses were everywhere.
If that day really comes, it would be better to suppress these infected people in a centralized manner rather than scattering them across the country and threatening ordinary people.
Therefore, in order to prevent this phenomenon from happening, the authorities must gather these infected people together.
When Han Ying saw the news, she could only sigh helplessly.
At the beginning, each of these infected people still held on to hope, hoping that experts could develop a way to treat the disease as soon as possible.
But as the days passed and they watched more and more people infected with the disease die, the hope in these people's hearts turned into despair.
At that time, they were no longer grateful to the authorities for bringing them here for unified treatment, but were angry!
They were angry that the authorities had deceived them, telling them that the disease could still be cured.
Angry that they had deprived themselves of the last few days they spent with their loved ones.
By that time, all the infected people in the resettlement site will unite to resist and report to the newspaper!
Although the suppression was successful in the end, countless officials and volunteers were killed and injured.
This also became a precursor to the complete chaos of social order.
Han Ying had no way of judging whether the authorities' decision to gather all the infected people together was right or wrong.
If we don't gather them together, and once the infected people go crazy and start smashing, burning and killing, who knows how many people will die at their hands.
When they came to know that there was no cure for the disease, they started reporting it in desperation, and it was the ordinary people who suffered.
Then the price the authorities will pay for suppressing it will only be greater!
But if you gather them together, you will find that the infected are also ordinary people with flesh and blood. How desperate must they be in these ten days before they die?
You can never have it all.
The authorities can only choose the lesser of two evils!
We reluctantly took the least harmful approach and gathered all the infected people together.
What's more, the original intention of the authorities to gather the infected people together was really to find a way to cure them.
....
The virus outside seemed to have nothing to do with Han Ying. She continued to live her life with the door closed every day.
Every day she turned up the volume of the TV at home, trying her best to block herself from hearing the miserable wails downstairs.
Han Ying has been making desserts these past two days. Yesterday she spent the whole day making tiramisu following the video.
The teaching video claimed that anyone with experience could do it, and sure enough, by following the steps and proportions, Han Ying succeeded after just one try.
In addition to the chocolate, strawberry, and mango flavors taught in the video, Han Ying also made three more flavors: durian, orange, and Oreo.
In order to make it easier to eat and take, Han Ying makes it directly in a disposable lunch box. After it’s done, she puts the lid on it and just takes out a box when she wants to eat!
In one day, Han Ying made more than 40 boxes of each of the six flavors of tiramisu, enough for her to eat for a while.
