Chapter 444 Determination of the boundary line action [Thanks to the leader Wurun Jiamu for the reward of 100,000 yuan, ask for a monthly ticket]
The invasion of the migratory locust swarm plunged Mobei City, which had not been completely evacuated, into chaos.
On the morning of March 19, one day after the migratory locust team appeared, a total of 100 first batch of patients came from the wasteland area riding alien birds. All of them either self-destructed successfully or were shot down by air defense. Mobei withstood this wave of aliens.
invasion, but the losses were so heavy that evacuation work in some areas had to be suspended.
An area in the city has been designated as the No. 1 isolation area, with tens of thousands of people suspected of being acutely infected.
When the carriers self-destructed, they were all within the radiation range, based on the approximately 8,000 square meters caused by Principal Cui.
There were Tianji personnel, officers and soldiers, and a large number of civilians, some with families, including the elderly and children.
Some related contacts outside the scope are also temporarily listed as suspected patients, and they are in the No. 2 isolation area.
After this day, there were no more suspected cases in the No. 1 isolation area, and everyone was diagnosed and developed symptoms of pica; in the No. 2 isolation area, more than 3,000 people were also diagnosed.
These more than 13,000 new patients have greatly tested the manpower allocated accordingly. Whether it is isolation, guarding, treatment, pain relief...manpower is needed, otherwise there will be a more terrible situation. Under national dispatch, a
Convoy after convoy came to Mobei from other places with a large number of people who had written suicide notes.
In the isolation base, the conditions of the second batch of patients continued to worsen.
After the appearance of the migratory locust team, the patients' mental problems worsened significantly. Most of the thousands of teachers and students of Mobei Senior High School already had symptoms of mental disorder. However, the medical team can also use sedation and artificial coma to treat this.
.
However, the physiological symptoms of the patients were so helpless that even though they were given nutritional solutions, their bodies still experienced changes similar to dehydration and hunger, and their blood pressure was decreasing. Examination found that the patients' cerebral blood flow was also declining, and it seemed that they were going to decline.
Progressing towards cerebral ischemia.
The normal human body is complex enough, and the comparative DNA test results of these locust disease patients confirmed Wang Ruoxiang's hypothesis.
Compared with their own DNA before they were infected, which was extracted from hair and other things collected at home, there were significant differences, and the related gene mutation sites showed the same distribution and frequency. As long as there is a mutation at one site, it can
It causes the human body to mutate, and it is not yet known how many mutations are caused by the so-called locustization. What can be determined is that the genes of the patients have indeed mutated, and a large number of them have mutated.
Including Wang Ruoxiang himself, the medical staff hope that this hypothesis is wrong, because they have no choice in the current situation.
Just like the human body needs vitamin C, this is a physiological need at the DNA level.
They know what the patients' bodies need, that kind of abnormal soil, but once given, it will only lead to death sooner.
If given enough time and global scientific research efforts are gathered, corresponding gene correction therapies may be available.
But now some time is not decades, not even a month, not even a week.
Sikou Xian, Wang Ruoxiang, Cai Zixuan and others were all at a loss.
The earliest clinical trial has long since ended, and some of the six patients who participated in the trial went to the front lines in the wasteland area to determine the dividing line with the death squads.
Patients can use their bodies to tell where the soil is normal and where the soil is abnormal. In the action plan, patients do not need to eat the soil, and the death squads will not let them eat it. They can tell by tasting it with their tongues. Because the boundary line may be very long.
, and time was urgent, so 100 patients were recruited.
They are all willing and even fighting for it.
That way you can at least eat a little bit of abnormal dirt.
"I want to do something..." Zhou Kewen, a senior high school student, said when he applied for the job, "I know that I am finished, so at least my death will be worth something..." Thinking that he will die, he is very painful, and he only has one wish, to be physically killed
Wish caused by strong influence: "Can you please let me eat a good meal of that dirt before I die, and then kill me again, please..."
"I can't just let my students go." Dean Wang Jinbo is also one of the candidates, and he also longs to eat a full meal of dirt before he dies.
It is in this complex emotion, mixed with fear, decadence, wanting to die worthily, and twisted greed for the soil,
100 mentally stable patients participated in this operation.
Among them, 63 people suddenly went crazy during the measurement process. They broke away from the supervision of the death squads and ran towards the dividing line. However, they did not intend to go anywhere. Instead, they threw themselves on the ground, dug up the soil with their hands and stuffed it into their mouths.
, some people are completely crazy, and some people are crying and choking at the same time.
They can't resist that hunger. When a person is hungry to the limit, madness is the norm.
Hungry, extreme hunger, most modern people don't know what it feels like, but blood-stained history books say it must be very cruel.
That would make people no longer human beings, and turn them into beasts that feed on hair and drink blood again. The morality, dignity, and will that humans have finally had will be shattered. They will eat mud, eat plants, exchange children for food... as long as that hunger can be eliminated.
, can’t care about anything.
Bang, bang, bang, bang...
As promised before the operation, the death squad snipers humanely killed these out-of-control patients. Director Wang, Zhou Kewen... were all shot in the head with one shot.
Minimize the pain and try to preserve the dignity of the patients.
The bodies of these patients were cremated by incendiary bombs shortly after they fell in the wasteland area.
As for the other 37 patients, because they received greater radiation in the wasteland area and their condition became more serious, most of them received euthanasia after the operation ended.
These one hundred patients chose to make valuable sacrifices, and if this civilization had not been defeated by this incident, they would be remembered.
But at the moment, everyone in the command center and various departments cannot be immersed in their emotions. The boundary line of the wasteland area has been measured, covering an area of about 2 square kilometers. The operation to establish a life circle was carried out immediately, and now it has seen its scale.
.
As a doctor, Wang Ruoxiang watched the frontline actions, observed and analyzed in front of the screen.
The gunshots shattered her heart and tore every nerve in her body.
"Are we doctors or body collectors?" she asked herself in her mind.
What can they, clinicians, do at this time?
When I was still in medical school, my teachers once said that a doctor’s major responsibility is to try his best to alleviate the pain of patients. He is not a doctor only if he can save people. If he can’t save people, then forget about it. No, many diseases cannot be cured for the time being.
There are many cancers... What doctors have to do is to relieve the patient's pain...
She hadn't slept for a long time, and even if she had some rest time, she would wake up suddenly just when she was about to fall asleep.
But it was in this state that Wang Ruoxiang participated in the diagnosis and euthanasia of those returning patients.
The locust transformation changed their bodies and eroded their will, but they were still able to leave this world peacefully.
It must have been another long day. It was still nine o'clock in the morning when a sudden change occurred.
Wang Ruoxiang was woken up in a haze and hurried to the command room of the isolation base. Everyone here was looking at the big screen. It was the situation in the wasteland area. A group of drones appeared in the sky, and there were also people on the ground.
He got a remote control vehicle and suddenly entered the wasteland area from the dividing line and from another space.
The equipment was not from their camp, and the logos on it were also very unfamiliar, with two Chinese characters on them, "mysterious".
