Chapter 399 The Evacuation Bus 【Seeking a Monthly Pass
On March 14th, Beidian Village became increasingly restless from early morning.
Low houses are scattered around the farmland. The courtyard is surrounded by a wooden fence in front of the house. It is also full of fruits and vegetables, and there are chickens and ducks that roam around.
"Baby, look, there's a helicopter!" The sun rose at 6:46 in the morning. When it was past eight o'clock, Zhang Shuqin, the mother of one of the families, held her baby in her yard and pointed to the sky happily. The five-year-old
My son was excited to see several military helicopters flying over.
The baby's father, Guo Lei, was watching at first, but he immediately felt something was wrong and muttered: "Why did this helicopter stop at our place?"
The five helicopters roared to a stop on the ground, and they were from the forest farm contracted by Old Man Tian.
Did Mr. Tian commit a crime? Such a big thing?
Guo Lei felt strange about his guess. The permanent population of the village was only three to four hundred people, and everyone in the neighborhood knew him. Old Man Tian was famous for being hardworking and willing to work. He did not engage in gambling or fighting. He was a farmer.
If you plant trees and there are no conflicts on farmland, what can you do?
After a while, a motorcade passed by on the road outside, with the logo of the Bureau of Secrets on the car. Something must have happened.
Guo Lei was worried and followed several villagers to get closer to the forest farm to take a look at the situation, but they were all stopped by the police and the road to the forest farm was blocked.
More than an hour later, it was almost 9:30 in the morning.
There were helicopters again, and a larger convoy drove into Beidian Village, including buses, medical vehicles, armored vehicles...
Old men Zhang, Old Wang and a group of other old people were gathered around to play chess, villagers were busy in the farmland, and Guo Lei and others were talking about the situation at the entrance of the village.
All the villagers suddenly heard a loud voice, which was a helicopter hovering in the sky broadcasting to the ground: "Dear folks, fellow villagers, something happened in the nearby forest farm, for the sake of everyone's safety, we will immediately evacuate the whole village.
."
At the same time, the village chief and many other cadres have been anxiously telling everyone to follow the state's arrangements, pack up quickly, and evacuate immediately.
"You don't need to bring anything to wear or eat! The most important thing is to bring your documents, medical records, ID card, household registration book, bank card, and any valuable gold items. Hurry!"
The villagers were all stunned, listening to the sound of the radio and looking at the helicopters and vehicles... An epidemic broke out? But no one in their village has fallen ill recently...
"Mom, there are so many cars!" The little baby was ignorant and pointed to her mother excitedly, but Zhang Shuqin was speechless and just hugged the baby tightly.
The radio rang over and over again. The vehicles were parked at the entrance of the village. Teams of people got out of each vehicle. They were all wearing fully enclosed protective suits of different colors and had different responsibilities. Most of them walked quickly towards the village.
The vigilant barking of dogs suddenly sounded everywhere.
Some personnel went to each house and led the villagers to evacuate. Most of the villagers were elderly. The elderly and aunties followed them tremblingly.
Some personnel used unknown detection equipment to detect something in and outside the village, and reported using walkie-talkies.
Guo Lei went to find his elderly parents, while Zhang Shuqin quickly found a luggage bag, took out the family documents, money and valuables and put them in. Although the broadcast said that there was no need to bring clothes, Zhang Shuqin still grabbed a few pieces of clothes that she liked.
Take away the children's clothes.
Someone in protective clothing walked into the house and told her it was time to leave, so she picked up her duffel bag, hugged her child, and left.
At the edge of the village, more than 400 villagers boarded buses with the help of these protective clothing personnel.
Before getting on the bus, each villager needs to show his ID card to verify that he is indeed a villager here. However, because there are many elderly people, many of whom are 70, 80 or even 90 years old, even asking them to find their ID cards is difficult.
It’s difficult, not to mention that now, those who can’t show their IDs are all gathered in a car at the back.
No one's mobile phones have been taken away, but the signal here seems to be blocked, and they can't access the Internet or make calls.
When a bus is full of people and the door is closed, the driver immediately leaves, heading for a destination unknown to the passengers.
Guo Lei met his parents, wife and children at the entrance of the village. At this time, the family was on one of the buses, sitting near the back of the bus. Everyone else around them knew each other, some were silent, and some sighed.
, some complained excitedly.
"Mom, Mom, where are we going?" the child asked in a low voice. Although he was young and ignorant, he could feel the gloomy atmosphere at this time and was a little scared.
"It's okay." Zhang Shuqin patted the child's hand, "Didn't Mom tell you, those uncles and aunts are good people, let's go play with them."
"Mom, will we come back?" The child seemed to hear this as comfort, blinking his eyes in anticipation of a positive answer.
No matter what they said or did, the adults in the car were haunted by a fear of whether they and their families could survive.
Now that I heard this child ask, I suddenly thought about this question, will we come back?
Guo Lei looked at his son, at the villages and fields outside the car window, and felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.
He had already moved to the city a few years ago, but the cost of living was too high and he didn't like that kind of lifestyle, so in the end he chose to return to his hometown. He hoped to live a good life here and build the place well. Originally, he wanted to
Let's learn from Old Man Tian and contract some wasteland to plant trees...
But now, will you come back? Can you come back?
"Yes, of course I will come back." Zhang Shuqin nodded and forced a smile on her child, "This is our home."
At this time, the bus drove onto the highway and was gradually moving away from the village.
There were some people in protective clothing accompanying the car. At this time, one of the middle-aged women stood up and said: "Fellow folks, my name is Fang Tian and I am a doctor. If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me immediately. I want to
Do some research, have any of you ever had thyroid disease?"
Everyone cooperated with the inquiry amid doubts, but none of Guo Lei's family had any history of this.
After the inquiry, Dr. Fang asked several other staff to distribute a small tablet and a small paper cup of water to the villagers who clearly had no medical history.
"This is an iodine tablet." Dr. Fang said, "Swallow it now."
Iodine tablets? Guo Lei and Zhang Shuqin didn't understand why they were taking this. Many villagers asked about it, and some elderly people swallowed it obediently.
"Folks, the cause is a radiation problem at the forest farm." Dr. Fang said, having been allowed to explain to the folks to a certain extent.
When she talked about the radiation issue, the old people couldn't understand it. The faces of young people like Guo Lei changed. Radiation? What kind of radiation?
"Don't panic, everyone. We have not detected radioactive materials in the village. The contamination is only limited to a small area in the forest farm. Everyone should not be harmed. In other words, you have nothing to do now. The evacuation is a safe transfer. Taking iodine tablets is for
It is an emergency prevention, but if you have thyroid disease, you may have problems if you take this. When you arrive at the resettlement site, you will have a detailed physical examination. If the examination results are okay, you will only take the iodine tablets this time."
Dr. Fang has a positive tone and tries to speak plainly so that the elderly can understand.
But the old people still looked at each other in confusion. If they didn't understand something, they just followed the state's arrangements.
On the contrary, the young people in the car were really relieved. It was not Legionnaires' disease, not a plague, but radiation, but the village was not polluted, and they were fine...
Zhang Shuqin hugged the child, and Guo Lei was about to ask something: "Doctor Fang..."
Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound came from behind! I don't know whether it was affected by this or the road was uneven, but the moving bus bumped slightly.
"Ah...what, what's going on?"
"Is it an explosion? It seems like an explosion..."
"What exploded?"
The passengers suddenly panicked. On the faces of Guo Lei, Zhang Shuqin and others, the haze that was about to disperse suddenly became heavier. They looked out of the car window one after another, but could not see any flames or smoke, but the sound of explosions
The direction is towards Old Man Tian’s forest farm.
"Everyone... don't worry." Dr. Fang's words were a little slow. She, the driver, and other Tianji personnel all had frowns on their faces in their protective suits.
This explosion was not part of the action plan.
It was still morning, the sun was shining brightly outside the car, but they only felt cold.
