Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Third(1/2)
In early April, Cao, a retired professor from the Central University of Finance and Economics, was seeing a doctor in the hospital, causing some medical staff to become infected.
Cao’s wife, son, daughter-in-law, grandson, daughter, son-in-law, and grandson were admitted to the hospital with fever one after another. Six of his son’s colleagues in the work unit were also infected, and more than a dozen people in his community were infected...
In later generations, there was a name called "Poison King", but many poison kings in later generations were subjective and intentional. Cao was of a different nature and was also a victim - he died due to ineffective rescue.
Immediately afterwards, Sun, a student at Northern Jiaotong University, became infected, and soon a large number of patients with low fever appeared in the school...
By this point, people in the capital were beginning to panic.
…………
"drop!"
"34.5 degrees!"
At the entrance of the stairwell on the 13th floor of the newspaper building, Liu Weiwei was fully armed, wearing a mask and holding a thermometer. She had just finished testing an employee and shouted: "Clip the thermometer and stand next to it, who let you in!"
"This thing is not accurate, why pay 34.5?"
The employee put the thermometer under his armpit and squatted with his head in his hands, feeling aggrieved.
"I know it's not accurate, so I'll take a few more tests! Come here!"
Liu Weiwei called another person and took a test, which showed 37.2 degrees.
"What a piece of shit!"
She was very irritable and shouted to Han Tao: "When will the correct one be delivered?"
"Afternoon, that's a big deal!"
Han Tao was also fully armed and was busy spraying disinfectant, causing the elevator and corridors to smell.
These days, portable thermometers, also known as the common body temperature guns we have now, are only for industrial use in China. Their measurement range is as low as tens of degrees below zero and as high as several thousand degrees. When measuring the human body, the error is very large and it is harmful to some extent.
There are also ones for medical use, which can measure temperatures accurately, but require an external computer and large equipment, and one costs more than 10,000 yuan. Yao Yuan didn't do anything wrong and got one.
It is precisely because of this epidemic that China has begun to develop portable body temperature guns for medical use...
While they were measuring here, the elevator door opened again, and Yao Yuan came out. He was faced with Liu Weiwei, who had gone from irritable to furious. She shouted to her boss: "Clip the thermometer and stand next to her!"
whispering sound!
Yao Yuan didn't care about her, just clamped the thermometer and crouched down with his head in his hands.
There are hundreds of people in the company, and it takes a while to enter the market every day. Naturally, there are complaints, but Yao Yuan is not merciful in this matter. He even quoted quotes from capitalists:
"If you don't do it, someone else will!"
He leads by example, and others below him have nothing to say.
After struggling for a while, Yao Yuan finally entered the office that smelled of disinfectant. He fanned himself in disgust and turned on the computer to read today's news about the epidemic.
Beijing is increasingly unable to keep its lid on the situation.
Guangdong Province and Hong Kong are already very serious. Hong Kong is the most frightened. Leslie Cheung committed suicide not long ago, and the Hong Kong Film Awards happened. Many people called for the event to be canceled this year, but it was still held.
Tony Leung Chiu-wai's "Infernal Affairs", Lai Lai's "Going Home", Tony Leung Ka-fai's "Twin Eyes", Leslie Cheung "Alien Space", Andy Lau "Infernal Affairs" were nominated for Best Actor.
When Leslie Cheung passed away, he said that this year's best actor should be awarded to him. In the end, he followed the procedure and Tony Leung won the best actor.
However, at the beginning of the show, the Four Heavenly Kings sang a song called "The Love of the Past".
This year's Academy Awards are not as entertaining as previous ones. The men all wear suits and leather shoes, matching black and white, while the women also wear plain colors. The atmosphere is serious and heavy.
To use a metaphysical saying: it seems to herald the end of an era, and the Hong Kong film industry is slowly coming to an end.
Oh, "Hero" was also nominated and won a bunch of technical awards.
"..."
After Yao Yuan finished reading today's news, he felt unhappy and called his parents:
"How's it going over there?"
"Oh, don't take it seriously... pay attention and tell me if anything happens!"
The Northeast was not affected much by this crisis. In my impression, it was only tense for a while, and then it was time to eat and play, but before we realized it, the epidemic was over.
In fact, except for a few hard-hit areas, the response in other places is not big. Unlike the new coronavirus, which comes one after another, no one can escape.
Immediately, Yao Yuan called Zhang Yin again:
"How was school?"
"We are mobilizing and calling for volunteers. I signed up."
"Didn't you say the school was closed?"
"No, have you got the news?"
"No, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble if I go back to school, so you can stock up on snacks, mineral water, etc."
"Isn't that true?"
"As for that, forget it, I'll send it to you later."
…………
Beijing University of Science and Technology.
Zhang Yin was playing in Dai Hanhan's dormitory. When she hung up the phone, she felt that it was a bit of a fuss and said helplessly: "He will bring me food later."
"What to eat?"
"I'm afraid that if we close the school, people will be short of food and clothing."
"Ha, he really dares to think about it. In what age is the school still closed? But it also shows that people care about you."
Dai Hanhan's eyes left the computer screen and suddenly became gossipy, asking: "Hey, do you two have that?"
"Which one?"
"This is it……"
She inserted a fat finger into her fist and thrust it a few times.
"What are you talking about! We just hugged each other..."
"A hug?"
"Kissed me too."
"Kissed?"
"It's really gone!"
"Then you have quite a lot of self-control! Young people nowadays are all suffering from excessive hormones. Hey, I heard that there is a girl in the next class who cheated on her boyfriend for a netizen. She is so playful.
I stayed in the hotel for three days and didn’t go out. I was going up and down... The netizen was still posting in Maiwo to show off, and his boyfriend was checking..."
"and after?"
"I heard that my boyfriend stabbed me, but I haven't seen him since. This kind of thing happens a lot in Maiwo. They are all college students. If you chat with someone from the same city, you can make an appointment the next day. If you make an appointment, you can book a room.
, just open the room and do it..."
"Oh, the more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes!"
Zhang Yin blushed and her heart skipped a beat. At the same time, she was also confused. Isn't Maiwo a good community? Why has it become a hookup website? Isn't that what a pimp does? Is my brother a pimp?
After Dai Hanhan finished telling the gossip, she went back to surfing the Internet and asked casually: "By the way, does your mother know?"
"I didn't tell her because I was afraid she wouldn't agree."
"You didn't say anything, how do you know she doesn't agree?"
"Because she allowed me to be friends only during my junior year."
"You're already a cucumber in your junior year, where can you make friends?"
"She may have thought that she would be mature and stable by then..."
Zhang Yin shrugged and said, "I probably wouldn't like them even in my junior year. I always think they are so childish."
Yao Yuan said he would be here soon, so she kept waiting. As a result, she received a call in the afternoon and said he couldn't come.
"I really can't get out of bed today. I'll send it to you tomorrow."
"Are you really giving it away?"
"Of course!"
"Then you can do it tomorrow morning, I want to go home today."
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
Zhang Yin packed up, said hello to her roommates, carried a bag and went downstairs.
My roommates are very envious. Local students are just good and they can go home if they want.
She left the dormitory and walked through the campus. She saw many teachers and students busy. Some had just bought a batch of masks, some were spraying disinfectant, and some were changing the posters in the bulletin board, which were all about epidemic prevention knowledge:
"Practice good personal hygiene, wash your hands after sneezing, coughing and cleaning your nose, and do not share towels..."
