Song Zhi didn't want to go at first, but when she saw Luo Xi agreed, and Si Qing insisted, she didn't say much.

Following Si Qing and Luo Xi, I went to the base building.

On the way, Si Qing thanked Song Zhi.

"I'm sorry, Boss Song. You saved me last time, but I never had a chance to thank you."

Ever since he was able to get out of bed, he has been busy with various things in the base and has not found a chance to go there in person.

I could only choose one gift and ask Gu Si to pass it on to me.

"It's okay. Besides, didn't you give me a pistol last time and ask Gu Si to pass it to me?" Song Zhi waved his hand and didn't care.

She saved people just because she didn't want to lose a future partner.

"You're too polite, Mr. Song. When I'm done with my work, I'll find a gift that you'll like." Si Qing said sincerely.

Song Zhi looked at Si Qing and said calmly, "All is fine."

If you insist on giving her a gift, that's fine. It would be best if it was a crystal core or something like that.

As they were talking, the three of them soon arrived at Si Qing's office.

Once inside.

Si Qing closed the office door.

This door has excellent sound insulation and is made of special materials. Even if you shout inside, no one outside will hear you.

"Boss Song, please sit down first." Si Qing directed Song Zhi to sit on the sofa on the other side of the office.

"it is good."

Song Zhi nodded in agreement without saying anything more.

This was mainly because Si Qing and Luo Xi were talking, and she was just listening on the side.

Luo Xi glanced at the closed door, then looked at Song Zhi who was sitting on the sofa with a happy look on her face.

In the end, he no longer hesitated and spoke to Si Qing.

"Si Qing, I suspect there is a plague in the base."

Luo Xi's expression was serious and his tone was solemn. When he said the last two words, his expression was even extremely painful.

"What! Plague? Luo Xi, are you sure? It's not some other disease, but... plague."

Before this, even though Si Qing had already guessed something about what Luo Xi would say next, he still stood up in shock when he heard it with his own ears.

recently.

Si Qing went back and forth in the base to check for dangerous places and met many people in the base.

Compared with before, Si Qing made a strange discovery that some people's conditions were so much worse than before.

His face was pale and his movements were slow. He would occasionally squat on the spot or lean against the wall to rest.

Even if the weather outside is hot, they will stay where they are and not move.

Only when their bodies were soaked with sweat would they stand up shakily and walk weakly towards the shade.

At first, Si Qing thought that they were slow in movement due to heatstroke caused by the hot weather, so he asked his subordinates to distribute cooling medicines.

But, this is where things go wrong.

Some of the people who went to distribute the medicine also had the same symptoms when they came back.

They were extremely weak, dehydrated, vomiting, and had a high fever. They experienced almost all the uncomfortable symptoms.

From that time on, Si Qing began to suspect whether everyone was infected with some virus.

But at that time he thought it was a virus, but he didn't expect that Luo Xi would say today that they were infected with the plague.

"Plague", as long as these two words appear, no matter in which dynasty, a large wave of casualties is inevitable.

What’s more, we are now in the end times.

There is nowhere to escape for your life, and no place to go for quarantine.

"I checked it carefully and concluded that it was a plague, not some other virus or bacterial infection," Luo Xi continued.

"It is said that after a natural disaster there will be a major epidemic. The weather outside is still abnormal, and it is only a matter of time before an epidemic occurs. But I didn't expect that the epidemic would come so quickly. Now the number of people diagnosed by me has reached 200."

"I have temporarily isolated them in the hospital and did not allow them to go home."

As Si Qing listened, his face grew darker.

"Have you developed any treatment drugs yet?"

If a drug is developed to treat it, there is still hope.

"No."

Luo Xi shook his head helplessly and gave a bitter smile.

"There are very few drugs left in the base, and my abilities are limited. I may not even be able to supply drugs that can alleviate the symptoms, let alone special drugs."

"Besides, the plague spreads very quickly. It won't be long before the entire base falls."

Luo Xi looked heartbroken, but still had to tell the cruel truth.

In history, when plagues occurred, a city or even an entire province could be easily destroyed.

But now this is just a small base, how can we have the confidence to survive?

"Is there no other way?" Si Qing didn't know anything about curing diseases and saving lives, so he could only continue asking Luo Xi.

Luo Xi didn't know either, he shook his head, and then suddenly thought of something and said.

"The only thing to be happy about is that this plague doesn't seem to have much effect on people with special powers. Those who are now infected with the plague are also people without special powers."

Si Qing listened quietly, his dark eyes so gloomy that they seemed to be dripping with ink.

The news of the plague cannot be released directly, otherwise everyone will panic and flee, which will not help control the plague at all.

"Well, first we will temporarily form a special ability team to check the people in the base one by one and isolate them temporarily. Then we will disinfect the entire base. We will not tell the public that it is a plague, but find another excuse."

As expected, it’s Si Qing.

Accustomed to making decisions for many years, he quickly came up with a plan.

"Okay, I'll go down and prepare the disinfectant first. I'll leave the investigation to you."

After Luo Xi finished speaking, he was about to go downstairs to prepare.

At this time, Song Zhi, who had not interrupted the conversation from beginning to end, suddenly spoke.

"Um...excuse me for asking, do you need my help?" Song Zhi spoke in a relaxed tone.

It was as if what Si Qing and Luo Xi were talking about just now was not a plague, but a sudden cold.

"Boss Song, do you have a solution?"

When Si Qing heard this, his eyes lit up and he paused as he was about to leave.

Since Song Zhi was able to save him from death, maybe there really is a way.

"Si Qing, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you expecting a supermarket owner to be able to solve this problem?"

Luo Xi felt that Si Qing was simply crazy. Instead of hurrying down to arrange for people to isolate those who had contracted the plague, he still had the mood to chat with Song Zhi here.

Isn’t Song Zhi just a supermarket owner? He just has more supplies.

But what the base lacks now is not supplies, but medicines that can treat the plague.

This kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can have.

She asked if I needed help, but did she really have the ability to help?

Luo Xi didn't believe that the young girl in front of him had such ability at all, and just thought that what she said just now was bragging.

"Luo Xi, I know you are very anxious, but please be nicer to Boss Song." Si Qing's slightly displeased voice sounded.
