At this moment, Li Lechen had already quietly walked to the entrance with his luggage and quickly put on his shoes. At the same time, he gave F001 another thumbs up. This guy is too smart, isn't he?
Of course, Zhou Mi was also acting very strangely today. How could she usually watch TV? And how could she possibly come to the kitchen to help out just to eat some fruit?
Given Zhou Mi's personality, she'd be fine with eating anything, as long as it's convenient.
Just as Li Lechen was about to quietly open the door, a voice came from the kitchen again: "Cut it into pieces, it'll be easier that way." It was F001's voice. Zhou Mi then responded with "Okay."
It was during their conversation that Li Lechen quickly slipped out the door, gently closed it with his key, and tried to keep the noise down.
Of course, Zhou Mi and F001, who were listening intently in the kitchen, could still hear it clearly.
Now Zhou Mi was even more certain that someone had just gone out, and it should have been Li Lechen.
"he......"
Zhou Mi couldn't help but ask again.
Number F001 still shook its head in response.
So the two of them actually continued cutting the cantaloupe together, cutting more than half of it and making a whole plateful.
It wasn't that F001 knew Li Lechen could hear sounds from a great distance, but rather that he subconsciously felt it was best not to speak carelessly for a while—better safe than sorry.
Zhou Mi was also cooperative; since F001 wasn't speaking, she wasn't in a hurry to speak either.
At that moment, Li Lechen dragged his luggage and rushed out the door.
He left through a side gate of the residential complex, so he didn't run into Xiao Zhang, the security guard who was always on duty at the main gate. Of course, he did encounter other security guards along the way, but they weren't as gossipy as Xiao Zhang, and they didn't find it strange that a resident of the complex was dragging his luggage out of the complex.
Therefore, Li Lechen's trip went smoothly.
Then, he easily hailed a taxi and headed to the bus station.
You need an ID card to fly, you need an ID card to take the train, but thankfully you don't need one to take the bus. Li Lechen only needs to hide for three days. He doesn't plan to go to a very far place, just a small hot spring resort in the county town next to Lingcheng. He can stay there for three days without anyone noticing.
About ten minutes after Li Lechen left, F001 estimated that he should have left the community. Then he spoke up: "I am F001."
Zhou Mi smiled and nodded: "I know."
“I know you know.” F001 smiled as well.
“I know you know I know.” Zhou Mi’s smile widened.
"Cough cough!"
F001 actually wanted to continue, saying that he knew Zhou Mi knew about him and that she had seen through him while they were eating. However, if he said it out loud, it would just be a series of "I know, I know, I know."
In short, F001 knew about the whole process, and Zhou Mi also knew about it.
For a moment, neither of them had anything to ask or say, and they simply watched TV and ate cantaloupe.
Of course, the fact that neither of them spoke doesn't mean they weren't thinking anything.
Zhou Mi actually wanted to ask "why", while F001 wanted to find a time to explain what needed to be done next.
In fact, Li Lechen did not know that if Zhou Mi hadn't come over that night, F001 would have definitely used many reasons to make Li Lechen give up his idea of switching people in a short time. After all, switching between two completely different people might not be a problem in the short term, but if it went on for more than a few days, he would be exposed at any time.
But then Zhou Mi arrived.
For F001, Zhou Mi was one of their own.
With Zhou Mi by my side, my role as Li Lechen here is much easier to achieve.
Why did you...?
"Actually, this time I was..."
Suddenly, Zhou Mi and F001, who had been silent for a long time, spoke almost at the same time.
After such a long silence, they spoke at the same time with such perfect understanding, and they must have been talking about the same thing. The two couldn't help but look at each other and smile.
They really have great chemistry.
“I will be staying here for three days this time,” F001 quickly explained. “During this time, I will be Li Lechen, not F001.”
Zhou Mi listened attentively without interrupting.
F001 continued, "So there's an SW18 virus outbreak here?"
"Um."
Zhou Mi nodded.
"This virus was called the HI25 virus back then, and it only broke out in 2025. When this virus broke out, 80 million people died."
"Eighty million?!"
Even though F001 was said in a very calm tone, it still sounded terrifying to Zhou Mi.
It is an indisputable fact that the SW18 virus is terrifying. Zhou Mi has personally experienced the large-scale quarantine that has been in place for the past two weeks. However, it is still unbelievable to say that the SW18 virus is the same as the HI25 virus, which will kill 80 million people in the future.
Eighty million people died because of a mutated flu virus?
"The official figures only show a little over a thousand deaths," Zhou Mi asked, puzzled.
That's right, the official data does show that it was more than a thousand people. A mutated flu killing more than a thousand people is really not a big deal. Even a normal, more severe flu could cause this result.
Of course, the SW18 virus is very dangerous because there is still no effective treatment or vaccine. It is basically a death sentence once you are infected.
Therefore, the most important thing is not to get infected.
If isolation measures are implemented well, the chances of not being infected are still very high.
At least, although Lingcheng was previously a high-risk area, after half a month of quarantine, most public places have reopened to the public, and it is basically safe.
