Darkness is Coming

Chapter 15: critical moments

   After floating on the river for a long time, the ferry finally swayed to Paradise Island.

  Yang Xiaoqian handed out a tissue to Yang Yan to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and said with relief, "Dad, don't be nervous."

  Yang Yan wiped his forehead and shook his hand and said, "I'm not nervous, this sweat is stuffy, it's really hot wearing a windbreaker today."

   "Then why are you still wearing it?"

"Momentum! For the sake of momentum! When the gambling sage returns, he has to assume the correct posture to open the door. You must push the door open. With a piece of chocolate in my mouth, I walked gracefully into the venue, dressed in clothes and dancing. I have all the chocolates. When I'm ready, it's almost BGM, but unfortunately I don't have a sound system, why did my chocolate melt, the weather is really hot." After speaking, Yang Yan asked back, "Then why did you wear a windbreaker like me?"

"I didn't learn from you, I wear a windbreaker for safety." Yang Xiaoqian explained seriously, "Who knows if there are really zombies, what if there are zombies on the island attacking me? I'm not like Yu Qian and He Yu. , I have to wear a long-sleeved trench coat and leather gloves to protect myself, I can't let a zombie bite and get infected."

   "It's as if the windbreaker can really block the bite, and it's not for pretending to be handsome." Yang Yan hit the nail on the head and exposed his son's careful thoughts.

   "If there is a son, there must be a father." Yang Xiaoqian, not to be outdone, fought back fiercely.

   "You two, stop arguing and go to work." Yu Qian listened to the father and son chattering non-stop along the way. His patience was exhausted, and his explosiveness was about to reach the threshold.

According to Yang Xiaoqian's plan, He Yu stayed behind to guard the ferry to prevent the boat owner from running away, while Yang Xiaoqian and Yan Yuqian went ashore with the weapons they needed to enter the casino. Beckoned to bring the weapon back.

   "Is it okay to leave him here alone?" Yu Qian poked Yang Xiaoqian's arm with his elbow and asked while walking on the road.

"It doesn't matter." Yang Xiaoqian replied firmly, "He's not a fool, can't tell how to choose in this situation? Besides, he can't make any waves with you, so give him a chance to see his choice. Well, if he uses crooked brains, it means that he will not only run away or cause trouble sooner or later if his position is not firm, but also has insufficient IQ balance and needs to be recharged, so it is meaningless to keep him."

  Yu Qian is still a little worried: "If he doesn't give him a chance, he will naturally have to be obedient. This gives him a chance. Maybe he will not run and will run away if he is shaken?"

Yang Xiaoqian sighed helplessly: "Hey, is it okay to have a little confidence, and a little trust between people? If he really wants to run, can you stop him? Do you still need to take care of him 24 hours a day? Besides, The weapons have already been shipped, and if he really escapes, we won't lose much."

   "I think it would be better for them both to disembark with us."

"No, no, let's not talk about He Yu for the time being. If the owner of the ship does something, we will be very passive. When they enter the casino, we will have someone come out to watch them. I can't go and see, you Let's see, who will take care of the security of the casino owner? Well, don't think about it, if He Yu was really such a stupid person who couldn't tell the difference between the priorities, he would have died a long time ago, and mercenaries are not so easy to be."

  Yu Qian had to keep his mouth shut. Whenever he disagreed with Yang Xiaoqian, Yang Xiaoqian always had a way to persuade him, which made him have the illusion that he was the thug Yang Xiaoqian was the leader, and this feeling made him very unhappy. But objectively speaking, Yang Xiaoqian's analysis is indeed more reasonable, and he has to listen.

   After the disaster outbreak has initially stabilized, if Yang Xiaoqian is still just an ordinary person or has not awakened any powerful abilities, his attitude towards him should also change, and the majesty of the superior must be established. Yu Qian thought secretly in his heart that he had to hit the big stick and give the carrot, so he had to think about it carefully.

  …………

In the    air raid shelter command post, Liu Xie supported the desk with both hands, and his hair was disordered. From yesterday when he learned that the disease broke out in Yuanjiang until now, he has been standing on the command line and only rested for three hours. When he was middle-aged, he was obviously a little physically exhausted under such high-intensity work, but he couldn't relax. Yuan Jiang's situation did not improve by half, but accidents occurred again and again.

  The number of patients has grown in a straight line, and major hospitals are almost full of patients and their families who vomit blood, which is very easy to cause cross-infection.

   Coupled with the riots and parades and traffic paralysis in various places in the market, the situation in Yuanjiang is eroded…

   Secretary Li hurried over with a field worker behind him, his face solemn.

   Is there any worse news? Liu Xie felt the pressure in his heart, but the city government that had accumulated in the official establishment for many years made him not change his face, and looked directly at Secretary Li and waited for him to speak.

   "Operators from the Guards brought back a person, most likely an antibody carrier."

  Liu Xie's eyes lit up with joy, and finally there is good news! "Can you be sure?"

The operative who came to report with Secretary Li replied: "I haven't had time to use medical means to check and confirm, but according to Liu's analysis, it can basically be confirmed that Li Jinkui - that is, the person we brought back is indeed an antibody carrier, but he seems emotional Not quite stable, he kept roaring on the way back, bloodshot eyes, one of our team members went to comfort him and he was bitten hard, a little sign of mental disorder, he stabilized after calming down. And Liu Chu…”

  Liu Xie looked at his sad expression, his heart sank, and he clenched his fists without any restraint and asked anxiously, "Where are the others in Yuanzhou?"

"All the brothers Liu Chu brought sacrificed. Fortunately, Liu Chu was rescued by the support troops who rushed to the scene of the exchange of fire. He was seriously injured and not life-threatening. He has been sent to the ICU. The doctor said that there will be no serious problem." replied.

  Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, patted the operatives on the shoulders with relief and said in a deep voice, "Their sacrifices are all honorable, meaningful and valuable, and the party and government will never lose sight of their contributions."

  Those sacrificed operatives will be posthumously buried as martyrs, and their families will receive adequate pensions and care.

   "Inform the vaccine development team that Li Jinkui has been confirmed as an antibody carrier and will start developing serum immediately." Liu Xie ordered, he obviously had absolute confidence in Liu Yuanzhou's judgment.

The door of the conference room was opened again, and a group of people filed in. They were all the top and second leaders of various departments. Another new meeting was about to start. In an emergency, Liu Xie was even exempted from asking for instructions. The meeting table began to discuss.

  Liu Xie waved his hand to signal for Secretary Li to step back temporarily and listen carefully to the reports and suggestions of various departments.

"The wireless signal transfer base has shut down the wireless services in the city, and all networks have been blocked. Unscrupulous elements can no longer use the Internet to spread rumors and confuse people, but they can still use the phone to communicate with each other. Do you want to block the power-on signal as well? ?" The head of the propaganda department made a suggestion.

"No, not for the time being." Liu Xie shook his head and vetoed, "Paper can't contain the fire, even if there is no Internet, the news of Yuanjiang's blockade will soon spread in the city. If the situation is fully controlled, if you lose contact with your relatives In this way, a large number of people will definitely go out to find relatives and friends, and under the instigation and use of intentional people, it is likely to cause large-scale traffic paralysis or even uncontrollable riots.”

   "But..." People from the propaganda department wanted to fight, but were interrupted by Liu Xie's wave. "How's the security in the city?"

"The troops of the provincial military region have been stationed, and all the armed police forces have entered the urban area to maintain stability and law and order, which is generally stable. However, many people in the urban area are now spreading rumors to deceive the people, forming gangs of different sizes and creating violence. How do these people deal with the incident?"

   "One warning." Liu Xie waved his hand, "Anyone who doesn't obey the warning, refuses to surrender, and continues to make waves, regardless of their status, will be killed on the spot!"

   The person in charge froze and tentatively said with a slight hesitation: "This may cause a large number of unnecessary casualties among the people. After all, many of the people accompanying the riot are just ordinary citizens who don't know it."

"In extraordinary times, deal with it very much! We must not let Yuanjiang continue to be like this, or more people will die. Tell me what I said, no matter how big something happens, I will bear it alone! Even if I can't bear it, Even if I bear legal responsibility afterwards, I must let Yuanjiang settle down as soon as possible!"
