Chapter 251 How long will it take you

Minister Song's assistant shouted into the conference room and slapped the table hard with his hands, and the noisy conference room instantly became quiet again.

Minister Song, who had just paused deliberately, continued, "These few days are considered paid vacations for everyone. Apart from the possibility of you helping to kill zombies, there is nothing else to do. Once this matter is resolved, you will all be awarded third-class merit!"

After these words were spoken, the discussion in the conference room quieted down a little.

Minister Song was somewhat satisfied when he saw this, and gave them one last reassurance, "In addition to you, I, and the president of SZ Biosciences, Ms. Shen Linglan, will also be here with you for fourteen days, so please rest assured."

As soon as she finished speaking, dozens of pairs of eyes in the conference room fell on Shen Linglan. Huang Linfeng frowned so much that he almost crushed the revolver with his hands.

Shen Linglan did not waver at all, and there was even a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. However, she did not echo Minister Song's words, did not speak out to support Minister Song's decision, and did not slam the table to reject Minister Song.

Keeping silent at this time will be good for everyone.

Minister Song waited for Shen Linglan for a full ten seconds. When he found that she hadn't expressed her opinion, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed across his face. But in the blink of an eye, she put on a friendly smile again, as if tacitly acknowledging Shen Linglan's agreement, and added: "So don't worry, just treat it as a vacation. I will also ask my assistant to arrange a room for you."

She had finished her words here, and they needed some time to digest them.

Minister Song walked down from the main seat in the conference room and waved to Shen Linglan cordially, "Linglan, come, please come out with me."

Shen Linglan nodded and stood up cooperatively. Huang Linfeng followed her footsteps and left the conference room.

After they came out, the guard outside turned around and locked the door again.

Huang Linfeng and Minister Song's bodyguards stood not far from the two of them. They could see them but could not hear their conversation.

When Shen Linglan and Minister Song stood face to face, Minister Song's face turned ugly, with a hint of annoyance, and he spoke with a hint of command, "Mr. Shen, I'm afraid I have to condescend to let you stay here for a few days."

Minister Song did not ask Shen Linglan for an immediate response at the meeting, nor did he dare to mention the fourteen days in front of Shen Linglan, but he still asked Shen Linglan not to leave the prison.

Firstly, she didn't want Shen Linglan to leave the prison and lose her control, and secondly, she needed Shen Linglan's help.

Although Minister Song has always thought that Shen Linglan is just lucky and makes money from whatever she invests in, which is why she is now wealthy, but just looking at the few times Shen Linglan shot the zombies with a gun, and her calm expression when facing the zombies.

Minister Song no longer dared to look down on her.

Minister Song came here today just to repay Shen Linglan for a favor. From the beginning to the end, Shen Linglan wanted to catch Xiangtian, but Minister Song only wanted to catch the people above Xiangtian.

But who would have thought that this setup of a fake zombie would end up with a real zombie.

Although Shen Linglan appeared in prison as an informant, she has also become one of the people who are most likely to be infected. Minister Song, out of his responsibility to the citizens, asked Shen Linglan to stay with him, which is naturally understandable.

"Minister, what are your next plans?" Shen Linglan did not respond to Minister Song, but asked instead.

Minister Song had already worked out a draft with his superiors and his confidants before the meeting. Now that Shen Linglan's attitude was unclear, Minister Song wanted to completely bring Shen Linglan under his command, but also wanted to hear Shen Linglan's opinion.

After a brief thought, Minister Song decided to tell Shen Linglan: "First, lock down the prison. Cut off the network signal, and then send people to deal with the prisoners in the prison. Only then can we completely eliminate the trouble in the future."

Unexpectedly, Shen Linglan shook her head after hearing what Minister Song said, "Minister, you got the order wrong. The most important thing now is to cut off the water source in the prison and prevent the water from flowing outside to avoid contamination of people outside. The second thing is that everyone, including you, should not drink any water or eat any food in the prison."

After hearing what Shen Linglan said, Minister Song patted her head, as if she was annoyed that she had just thought about it and actually forgot such a crucial thing. She raised her eyebrows and immediately called her assistant, "Go, have someone cut off the water source in the prison and cut off the water supply."

Shen Linglan watched Director Song finish his instructions. After the assistant left, Shen Linglan said, "If you really want me to stay here with you, I'd be happy to do so. After all, there have been so many things going on at SZ recently that I haven't slept well for several days. But at the SZ Life Sciences Department, whether it's the laboratory or the hospital, things tend to go wrong whenever I'm not around."

She did not comment on Minister Song's decision to "forcibly detain herself", but only told Minister Song that the implication was that if she detained herself in prison, SZ Laboratory and Yunlan Hospital would go on strike. By then, not only would the prison be filled with zombies, but it would also be possible that those infected people outside who were waiting for medicine would become zombies.

By then, a zombie crisis will break out in City A, no, the entire province or the entire country.

But Minister Song had been in office for many years and had always been soft-hearted. After hearing what Shen Linglan said, his face was still very stiff and his brows were wrinkled so much that they could kill a fly.

Shen Linglan knew that after saying something harsh, she naturally had to say some soft words as well, using both soft and hard tactics.

"But don't worry, as long as you allow me to go back once a day, I can not only supervise my subordinates to avoid chaos, but I may also be able to help Minister Song solve the chaos inside the prison."

Go back once a day. What's the difference between that and free access? Minister Song's face darkened again. Although he was quite dissatisfied in his heart, he knew that Shen Linglan was not someone she could easily manipulate.

She knew that Shen Linglan was giving in and saying that she would help. Minister Song couldn't help but soften his expression and asked Shen Linglan, "Mr. Shen, do you mean that there is a better solution to everything in prison?"

Shen Linglan said: "There are two types of people in the cell now. One is already zombified, and the other is just bitten. A professor in our laboratory recently developed a new drug that can inhibit the transformation of humans who have just been bitten."

Minister Song's eyes lit up instantly, "Really?!"

She didn't want a zombie crisis to break out in a prison that held hundreds of people, so she had to kill them all. Even if the cause of everything had little to do with Minister Song, she was sent here to work. If a major incident occurred in the city that required the execution of hundreds of "people", it would definitely have a huge impact on her promotion after it was spread out.

"Um."

Shen Linglan nodded, "But Minister Song needs to have someone separate the people who were just bitten from the ones who have completely turned into zombies. I will personally bring the drugs in and bring the most authoritative professor in our laboratory to see if there is any way to solve the zombie problem. What do you think?"
