#13 - Chapter 13 Transfer of Supplies
"The story begins with a virus. Last month, a special patient arrived at Binjiang Hospital. From external appearances, it looked a bit like a cerebral hemorrhage, but it didn't have the basic characteristics of one. After a consultation with experts, the conclusion was brain death."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. But no one spoke, continuing to listen.
"But the strange thing happened shortly after the consultation. The patient, who had been diagnosed with brain death, miraculously came back to life." Dongfang Chen paused deliberately at this point.
The people around him also found it strange, but they could still accept it. The world is a big place, full of wonders, and many things cannot be measured by common sense.
"So, what does this have to do with the virus you're talking about?" Brother Zhang asked.
"The revived patient had bloodshot eyes, a狰狞面目 (zhengning mianmu), bared teeth, and claws, biting anyone they saw. Several people were scratched or bitten on the spot," Dongfang Chen said.
"This, this, this, doesn't it sound a bit like a zombie?" Brother Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said.
"Xiao Chen, you're not making up stories for us here, are you? This sounds like a scene from a movie." Another middle-aged man asked.
"Of course not," Dongfang Chen explained, then looked at Brother Zhang and continued:
"Brother Zhang, do you remember last month when I went to your shop and bought two packs of Huazi cigarettes?"
"I remember, could it be that day..." Brother Zhang was shocked and suddenly realized.
"Yes! It was that day! Binjiang Hospital was sealed off," Dongfang Chen replied affirmatively.
"No wonder you looked a little strange that day. But why didn't you tell me at the time?" Brother Zhang asked.
"Brother Zhang, I've told you more than once that the end of the world is coming soon, do you believe it?" Dongfang Chen asked rhetorically.
"Ah? Uh, haha, you said it like a joke, of course I didn't believe it," Brother Zhang scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Yes! This kind of thing is unbelievable. If it hasn't really happened, who would believe it? That's why I made up a story to fool you," Dongfang Chen continued:
"That's why we started frantically buying supplies, to prepare for this day. But things are more serious than I expected. I thought the virus outbreak would still be more than a month away, and that month would be enough for us to do a lot of things."
"Class monitor, does that mean that you called us here not to celebrate Hui Shan's twelfth birthday party? Is the real purpose to have us come and resist the virus together?" Ruan Xinghua suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked.
"Ai ~!" Brother Zhang sighed and said:
"Hui Shan's twelfth birthday is still a few months away. Xiao Chen suggested that I hold it in advance and gather everyone together. I didn't think so much at the time, I just thought it would be good for the brothers to get together since they haven't seen each other for a long time. As for the doomsday stuff he mentioned to me, I took it all as a joke, the purpose was to fulfill my dream. I appreciate his kindness, but I didn't believe it in my heart," Brother Zhang smiled bitterly.
"Brother Zhang, do you remember that night I said: Brother Zhang, you watch, in at most 3 months, the truth will naturally become clear. Now you understand, we bought so many supplies, not because we were worried about spending the money, but to prepare for today," Dongfang Chen explained, while looking at everyone and continuing:
"It was my suggestion to gather everyone here. In fact, if it was just to celebrate Hui Shan's twelfth birthday, there would be no need for everyone to bring their families. The reason for having everyone bring their families is very simple: the virus is coming, only by sticking together can we survive. Letting everyone bring their families is also to eliminate everyone's worries."
Hearing this, everyone understood that they had been deceived to some extent in coming here. But after all, it was out of good intentions, and everyone didn't say much.
"Is it really the end of the world? Why do I feel so unreal?" Ruan Xinghua still didn't quite believe it.
"According to my current understanding, the possibility is extremely high. It's summer now, and there are many mosquitoes. This virus can be transmitted on a large scale through mosquito bites. Moreover, the incubation period of this virus is very long, about 15 days, which also leads to a sharp increase in the danger of this virus."
Dongfang Chen told everyone the situation he learned from Xiao Lin.
"Then is there no way to treat this virus?" Someone asked.
"There is currently no effective treatment," Dongfang Chen shook his head and replied.
He had also asked Xiao Lin this question, and Xiao Lin's answer was that it would be necessary to wait until the space station was upgraded and had an experimental module before research and development could begin.
Everyone was silent. The amount of information was a bit much, and everyone frowned and remained silent.
"Although there is no treatment method, I have something here that can provide protection." As he said this, Dongfang Chen raised his left hand.
"What is it?" Brother Zhang didn't know what Dongfang Chen was doing by raising his hand and asked doubtfully.
Dongfang Chen shook his wrist when he saw that everyone didn't understand.
"A watch?" Brother Zhang asked doubtfully.
"Yes, a watch," Dongfang Chen replied affirmatively.
"Isn't this just an ordinary smart watch? How can it provide protection?" Brother Zhang still didn't understand and continued to ask.
"It is, and it isn't. As for why it has a protective effect, it's not convenient to reveal it to everyone now. Currently, I only have a hundred of these watches in my hand, which should be enough in the short term." No one could understand Dongfang Chen's mysterious words, so he treated it as a soliloquy.
Not long after, Niu Xingwang returned with the convoy.
Dongfang Chen arranged for everyone to load their families and luggage into the cars first.
Brother Zhang then led a group of brothers to the warehouse.
It wasn't until nearly dawn that all the supplies were transferred.
There were some accidents in the middle, but fortunately, Niu Xingwang still had some influence locally, and in the end, it was thrilling but safe.
......
Binjiang Park Underground Base.
Originally, Brother Zhang's comrades-in-arms had just arrived during the day. Their families and children hadn't had a good rest. After such a commotion, everyone was very tired.
Some women and children were crying, some people were complaining, and some people were arguing.
After all, they didn't know what was going on. They were resting well in their rooms, and suddenly they were brought to this dark, messy basement, and their emotions were very bad.
"Brother Zhang, after the supplies are sorted out, let everyone rest and explain to their families. We'll gather here again later for a small meeting," Dongfang Chen said to Brother Zhang, seeing the chaotic crowd.
"Okay," Brother Zhang agreed readily, covered in sweat.
Soon, the base quieted down.
When people learned that the virus was coming, they were very scared. But seeing the countless supplies being transported in, they felt a lot more at ease and slowly accepted the reality.
Gradually, the women stopped crying, and the elderly and children gradually fell asleep.
More than two hours later, Brother Zhang led the comrades to slowly gather.
Dongfang Chen also brought a few people to dismantle some newly purchased tables and chairs, and pieced them together into a long conference table.
After everyone was seated, Dongfang Chen said:
"There is a box of smart watches here. After the meeting, everyone can divide them up, a few for each family, depending on how many people there are. Everyone must have one, including the elderly and children. These watches are different from the watches sold outside, they can prevent mosquito bites, and everyone must wear them at all times."
Dongfang Chen was not polite with everyone, and directly arranged affairs in the posture of a commander.
"Next, there are several tasks to be done, let me make some arrangements:"
Everyone stopped when they heard this, and sat up straight.
Seeing this scene, Dongfang Chen suddenly felt how correct his decision was. If he had found a group of ordinary people, it was estimated that it would still be a chaotic mess now.
"First, from today onwards, we will form a guard team to protect the safety of the base. Brother Zhang will serve as the captain."
"Yes!" Brother Zhang stood up and responded, then sat down.
"Second, I will take the lead in dividing the area in the base, including: living area, leisure area, office area, training area, material area, medical area, isolation area, etc. After the division is completed, priority will be given to the transformation of the living area, and the families will be settled first."
"Third, the statistics and management of materials need to be handled by a dedicated person. Everyone discuss who is suitable, you can choose from your family members. And assign five assistants, so it will be easier."
