Chapter 361 Problematic Sea Fish
In the next few days, Li Yu'e and Xia Xiaoman stayed at home obediently.
In order to avoid suspicion, Xia Xiaoman didn't even need space and all he ate were the pumpkins that were placed in the house as decorations.
There are many ways to cook pumpkin. Xia Xiaoman steams the pumpkin and mixes it with tapioca flour. Part of it is fermented to make pumpkin steamed cake, and the rest is steamed to make pumpkin thousand-layer cake.
When Zhao Anqi came over, a basket of steamed cakes had just been cooked. Xia Xiaoman picked up a few and placed them on the table, "Sister Anqi, come and try my cooking."
Zhao Anqi didn't hesitate to pick up a piece of steamed cake and took two bites. The steamed cake was chewy and elastic, but the sweetness was relatively light, and it took a few more chews to taste the light sweetness.
"Did you forget to add sugar? It doesn't taste sweet at all."
Xia Xiaoman smiled and said, "I didn't add sugar. White sugar is too expensive. I thought these pumpkins have been stored for so long, they should be sweet enough, so I didn't add sugar." The main reason was that Maodan didn't like to eat sugar.
"Sister Anqi, what brings you to my place in such a cold weather? What's the matter?"
Zhao Anqi took a sip of ginger tea and said, "Didn't you bring a fish to me a few days ago and ask me to check if there was anything wrong with it? The test results of the fish are out, and I waited for a few days at the medical station but didn't see you come to see the test report, so I came to see you in person."
Xia Xiaoman slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, Sister Anqi, I'm sorry. I was a little busy that day and I forgot about it."
She really forgot. On her way back from Li Yu'e's house that day, she was thinking about Huang Hai and forgot to go to the medical station. Later, she was busy catching Huang Hai and completely forgot about it.
"What are the test results? Are there any problems with those sea fish?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
Zhao Anqi sighed softly, "Sometimes I don't understand you. You are out of touch with the news, but you know some special news better than anyone else. You are well-informed, but the team selling sea fish has been arrested for two days, and you still don't know about it."
"The convoy selling sea fish was caught? Is there really something wrong with their fish?" Xia Xiaoman looked at Zhao Anqi.
Zhao Anqi nodded. "My colleague found an unknown virus in these fish. This virus is very tenacious and high temperature cannot guarantee that it will be killed."
"My colleague suspects that this virus might be the one that turns babies into monsters. He is currently conducting experiments on steel-toothed rabbits. Once the pregnant steel-toothed rabbits give birth to pups, we will know if this guess is correct."
"The authorities have issued a notice asking people who have eaten marine fish to go to a medical station for a blood test to see if they have any health problems. If there are any problems, they should get treatment as soon as possible. If you have friends who have eaten marine fish, you can remind them to go to a medical station."
Xia Xiaoman frowned, "Do all the marine fish have this virus, or is it only the marine fish in the fleet that have the problem?"
"Don't worry, only the marine fish in the convoy have problems. The ones in the trading point are fine."
Zhao Anqi said: "It is actually very easy to distinguish fish with problems from fish without problems. You can tell by observing the fish's eyeballs. Fish with problems will have some black bloodshot eyes, while fish without problems will have normal eyes."
Xia Xiaoman thought about it carefully. The eyeballs of the fish that Li Yu'e brought back that day seemed to be a little black and gray. She thought that all frozen dead fish would be like this after being thawed.
"So if you eat problematic marine fish, can you still get well?"
Zhao Anqi shook her head. "It's not clear yet. We need to check what virus it is first, and then look at the patient's physical condition. Did you eat those sea fish?"
"I didn't eat it, but many people in Yunhai City did. I heard that these teams had been selling sea fish in Yunhai City before. If there is no cure, I'm afraid many people will not be able to give birth to the next generation."
Hearing Xia Xiaoman's words, Zhao Anqi sighed, "There are very few medical equipment and drugs now, so we can only do our best."
The authorities attach great importance to this matter. The future of mankind needs the next generation to continue development, and we cannot allow the next generation to become deformed babies in any case.
…
After sending Zhao Anqi away, Xia Xiaoman told Li Yu'e the news about the sea fish and asked Li Yu'e to check if anyone in the Lingxu Gang had eaten the sea fish of unknown origin and go to the medical station for examination and treatment as soon as possible.
Just as the gang members gathered together to announce the matter of the sea fish, the security team suddenly appeared. Li Yu'e walked up and asked, "Brothers, what do you want to do here?"
The security captain glanced at the crowd gathered nearby and said, "I have a few questions for you about the criminal who stole confidential documents last time. Is it convenient for you to do so now?"
"It's convenient. Come with me into the house and we'll talk inside." After Li Yu'e finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Qiuyang and ordered, "Xiaoyang, tell everyone about the sea fish. If anyone has eaten sea fish, ask them to go to the medical station for a checkup."
After arranging the following matters, Li Yu'e led the security guards into the living room.
"I wonder what you guys want to ask? As long as I know something, I will tell you everything." Li Yu'e placed the poured water in front of the security guard.
The captain of the security team said, "I'm sure you know exactly what the 'confidential documents' I mentioned are. I'm too lazy to beat around the bush, so let's just be frank."
"The suspect Huang Hai said that you are very familiar with space. After you injured him, you took off his space ring immediately and you also know how to use space."
The security captain stared into Li Yu'e's eyes and asked, "How did you know about space, and why are you so familiar with it?"
Li Yu'e chuckled, "I thought it was something else, but it turns out you're asking about this!"
"My friend in Yunhai City told me about the space. As for who that friend is, I have no idea. He took the risk to reveal this information to me. I can't betray him and sell him out."
Li Yu'e continued with a normal expression, "My friend also heard it from others. He said that the Americans who came to our Xia country some time ago came with a mission. Their main purpose was to see if there were any spacers in our Xia country. If there were, they would capture them at all costs."
"When I heard the word 'space user', I was curious, so I asked a few more questions. My friend used to like to read novels about cultivating immortals, so he guessed that this space might be some kind of accessory. As long as you drip blood on the accessory, the accessory will recognize its owner, and the person holding the accessory can gain access to the space inside."
"On that day, the only suspicious thing on Huang Hai was the purple jade ring, so we took it off and followed my friend's advice to identify the owner by dripping blood. Unexpectedly, it actually worked."
"Is it that simple?" asked the security captain.
Li Yu'e nodded firmly, "It's that simple. If you don't believe me, you can go to Yunhai City and ask. I think most people there know about the existence of spacers."
