Chapter 156 Quarantine
[Only released by Jinjiang Literature City]
This is a private hospital, not too far from Youxi and You Zhengqing's apartments, you can get there in just ten minutes by taxi.
Before, You Zhengqing's condition relapsed, and it was Kong's father who helped arrange for him to enter the hospital. At that time, he was considering that his condition was not very good. He might continue to be hospitalized in the future. It would be convenient for You Xi to take care of him in the future.
There are many private hospitals like Huaguo. In order to encourage more people to set up businesses, Huaguo will provide certain subsidies for such treatment-related business premises.
Under the background of sufficient resources, Huaguo will also subsidize most of the personal medical expenses, so the treatment costs here are not expensive, but the conditions and facilities are very good.
It is said to be a hospital, but in You Xi's eyes, this place looks more like a vacation sanatorium.
The average ordinary ward here is a maximum of two people. The private ward has a bathroom, kitchen and balcony, with bright windows and clean rooms, good privacy, and looks like an apartment suite in her native world.
In You Xi's opinion, such a ward can be used as an apartment. Even if she stays in the hospital and doesn't go back, she can do it.
When You Xi walked into the ward, a nurse was pushing the cart out. After asking You Xi's identity, the other party told him that the patient had just finished chemotherapy and was now very weak and had just fallen asleep.
You Xi thanked the other party, closed the door, put the things he brought on the table in the outer room, and then walked into the inner room with a lighter pace.
To be honest, she was quite afraid of seeing a person who looked 70 or 80% similar to You Feng or exactly the same as when he was young lying on the hospital bed.
Even though this is the mission world, even though she knows in her heart that this person is not her biological father, because of cancer, she is very reluctant to see someone similar to her biological father lying there and suffering.
Fortunately, the person on the hospital bed did not look like You Feng—not only did he not look like you, but he didn’t even look like You Feng’s shadow.
Perhaps because of illness, the other person's face and lips were pale, his cheeks were a little thin, his eyes were closed, and his brows were frowning when he was asleep. However, even so, it was hard to hide the other person's elegant and handsome appearance.
The moment he saw the other person, the pictures of the world with his brother that had already existed in You Xi's mind became clear, as if the black and white paintings were dyed with colors and injected with emotions.
Even though he and You Feng looked completely different, she still felt heartbroken.
She is an only child. She used to not know what it would be like to have an older brother. Now she knows that this feeling is different from the last time she has had the sister You Qi. Because You Qi is exactly the same as the young Fan Qi, she always treats her as her mother.
But You Zhengqing is an independent individual. After his parents passed away, he replaced the roles of mother and father, and was strict and gentle.
You Xi admitted that even though the "You Xi" used to be just a mechanical consciousness that sets a good track, she still empathized with "her".
World Mission 2 ensures that the other party spends the last few months of his life safely. But she doesn’t know how long the months mentioned here will last. Based on her first mission, the longest will not exceed six months, and the shortest may be only two or three months.
She looked at the person on the hospital bed and asked the system in her heart: How many months will You Zhengqing live? Is there any chance of saving and change?
The system did not speak out, and there was not even a speechless state that he usually did not answer but showed.
You Xi sighed and walked back to the outside room.
The outer room is similar to a living room, with a sofa, TV, dining table, cabinet, and facing south is a not-so-large balcony. Open the glass sliding door and you can see the grass and garden in front of the ward. The world is in autumn, and the surrounding environment is very good, with birds singing and flowers fragrant.
The sun is about to set, and the western sky is rendered in large red by the afterglow. It is beautiful, but the redness is too bright, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps because this red color is too blood-like...
You Xi had dinner alone in the room. This should be the most comfortable and relaxing meal time after she arrived in this mission world.
Since the haunted house in the L City Amusement Park, she has been on the way to escape. Even if she has time to eat, it is indeed inconvenient to be with so many classmates.
She first took a long-handle pot and rice, and used the induction cooker in the suite to cook a pot of porridge for You Zhengqing. She took a bowl of spicy beef ramen, accompanied by a portion of scrambled pepper eggs and a cup of Nicara milk tea, and had a simple but happy dinner.
When the porridge was almost ready, You Zheng woke up. When he saw her standing by the bed, his eyebrows were tighter: "What's wrong with your hair? Why did you suddenly come back? Isn't studying abroad what you always want to do?"
You Xi raised the backrest of the bed for him and handed the served porridge to him: "You eat something first, and I'll tell you after you finish eating." She was really afraid that when she said it now, he would not even swallow a bite of porridge.
You Zhengqing sighed and drank the porridge quickly.
"I also brought the soup, it was very light, drink it?" She served another bowl of soup.
You Zhengqing:...
After You Zhengqing finished drinking the soup, You Xi handed over his phone directly and showed him the video of the "varmire" attacking people.
The bloody and violent scene made You Zhengqing frown again: "What is this? The movie?"
"This is the picture I took at the L City Amusement Park."
"What!?" He looked up in shock.
"Don't worry, we are all fine, we escaped in time, and left Country D by plane that night... Later, there was a little accident on the way, but fortunately everyone was lucky and worked together to return safely in the end."
You Xi would definitely not tell him the most thrilling part, after all, he could not explain his high military power and coping ability.
In fact, You Xi had originally thought about whether to hide it from him. After all, he was a patient, and Hua Kingdom would sooner or later. He would naturally know that he could continue to live some stable life before that.
But looking back at You Zhengqing's courage and ability in work in the world, she felt that she had to say first, because she would stock up on his medicine for several months and medical supplies for the next few months. Without his cooperation, it would be not convenient to rely on her alone. After all, the medicine he needed is quite complicated and she did not have this knowledge.
You Xi took back his phone and explained in detail the characteristics of the change itself.
You Zhengqing was just sick, but his mind was very clear. He immediately thought of his current situation. If this disease spreads in Hua Kingdom and the normal order of life collapses, he will only become a burden to You Xi.
At the request of You Xi, You Zhengqing wrote down all the names of the drugs he currently needs and circled out several of them, saying that if the condition is not allowed to treat, he can rely on these drugs to delay the pain.
"I will rest in the hospital for one night and go home with you tomorrow and prepare as soon as possible."
You Zhengqing didn't know that their home was already empty.
You Xi didn't say much, helped him get out of bed, asked him to go to the bathroom to wash and solve his personal problems, and then obediently responded to his every advice and comforted him to sleep.
It doesn’t matter whether You Xi returns home or not. Now she has nothing short of anything except medicines and medical supplies. She has to find a way to get everything she needs into the Xingwu warehouse before leaving the hospital.
Including the time she spent last night on her flight in Nigeria, she hasn't slept well for three consecutive days.
Even if You Xi is physically strong, she feels tired at this time. She decided to sleep for six to seven hours tonight and wait until her condition recovers.
She cleaned up the bowls and pots, locked the door of the suite, then took a shower in the bathroom and changed into clean sportswear, dragged the sofa to the door of the inner room, then took a thin blanket and slept on the sofa.
While sleeping in a drowsy mood, You Xi heard a disturbing noise. This sound came from a distance, but made her awake instantly.
Did she hear it wrong?
That's... a roar?
She lay there motionlessly with her eyes open, and listened carefully again. After a while, just as she thought the previous sound was an illusion, she heard a vague familiar roar again.
The sound came from somewhere in the hospital.
You Xi sat up all of a sudden, and she took out her cell phone. It was around three in the morning, and she was the most sleepy.
There is no doubt that it is the voice of a blood-mutant patient, which sounds like the third stage, with a roar with vague words, indicating that language function is being lost.
From the third stage, blood mutant patients are highly aggressive and powerful, and a large amount of flesh is torn and separated. Once discovered by people around them, it is easy to cause panic.
But how could a third-stage patient appear in China so quickly?
Zhoucheng is just a second-tier city, not even an international airport, so the speed of infection is really terrible.
You Xi walked to the window, opened the blinds, looked out from the gap, trying to judge where the mutant was based on the sound. But soon, she withdrew her gaze because she found that the source of the sound was not in other buildings outside.
The faint roar came from her feet, and the place where the patients with mutants appeared was the building where they were!
You Xi looked at You Zhengqing lying on the bed, but she still held back her steps to go out.
It’s useless. The appearance of a patient number zero represents the appearance of countless hidden patients. The end of the world has officially kicked off in Hua Kingdom, and she cannot stop it. Her most important task is to protect the person on the hospital bed.
This building has ten floors in total, six to nine floors are private wards, ten floors are senior private wards, and below the fifth floor are ordinary double wards.
Some functional rooms are distributed on various floors, with private wards relatively empty, and the double wards are about 60% to 70% full. Currently, she and You Zhengqing are on the eighth floor.
The sound comes from the downstairs. According to the strength, the distance between the sound source and them can be distinguished. It should be about one to three levels.
These three floors are double wards, and no matter whether the mutant is a patient or a medical staff, they will be discovered soon.
As expected, almost as she finished analyzing, a terrifying scream came from downstairs, with voices ranging from one to several, and during this period, there were roars and fighting sounds of mutants. But soon, the situation was controlled, and the speed was much faster than she imagined.
You Xi breathed a little relieved, but the remaining half night was not stable.
More than half an hour later, she heard the sound of fire trucks and ambulances in the city, not in one place, but in several places at the same time.
A few hours later, it was dawn, and police cars sounded outside the hospital. The streets outside the hospital were emptied and the guard rail was pulled out around the hospital.
Soon the nurse knocked on the door and notified her with a slightly uneasy expression, saying that the hospital had an infectious disease and was temporarily isolated. All patients and the families of the accompanying families could not leave. If there was anything needed, they could tell them that they would let people outside come in.
"You can't leave either?" You Xi looked much calmer than the nurse with a pale face.
"It seems like this, but don't worry, it is said that the examination is being arranged now, and as long as you pass the examination, you can leave. OK, I will also notify the next ward, you will stay first, don't walk around casually if you have nothing to do."
"Wait a minute." You Xi called out, "I'm afraid this infectious disease will not be solved in a short time. I want to give my brother some more medicines first."
The other party looked through the medical record book in his hand: "I'll go and ask the doctor, it should be OK. There is a pharmacy in the building. I'll come over again at noon."
"Thank you." You Xi smiled at the other party.
At noon that day, the nurse brought them medicine and lunch on time. The dosage was not too high, about one and a half months. She knew that the hospital had its own rules and could not give her medicine for several months at once, but it was better than nothing. She would think of another way to the rest.
When You Zheng woke up, he knew that the hospital was isolated, but he still couldn't help but blame himself.
In his opinion, he had not been able to survive for a long time, and it didn't matter what his death was. But You Xi was still young and she was very healthy, but now he couldn't accept it because he was trapped in the hospital.
"Brother, it's not just the hospital that is quarantined. I've checked it online. Last night, more than a dozen places in Zhoucheng City had mutated patients attacking people. It looks like the same group of infected people. This matter can't be hidden... Now Zhoucheng is not safe anywhere. It's actually good to be isolated in the hospital. At least there is everything you need here."
On this day, You Zhengqing spent the comfort and trepidation of the isolation.
Although the hospital was isolated, everything inside was still calm.
