    After returning the salute to the sentry at the door, "he" left the property center and walked towards the community hospital opposite. Along the way, people saluted "him" from time to time, and "he" saluted back one by one, "Where is Captain Gu Wei?"

    "In ward 302, she just completed an amputation operation."

    "He" had a calm expression on his face, but he was a little unhappy in his heart. Amputation surgery - this meant that the limited anesthetic was less.  Damn it, these resource homes can't be produced at all now. Last month, they issued a document requiring that minor surgeries should not use anesthetics "unnecessarily" - in other words, just bear with it!  But Gu Wei, this kid, wasted limited resources on a civilian, and a worthless civilian at that.  Really, too willful!

    ¡°He¡± came to Ward 302 and opened the door.

    Standing beside the hospital bed, Gu Wei turned his head and smiled: "Mom, why are you here?"

    "He" is actually her, a middle-aged female officer with the rank of colonel. She is a bit thin. Although the military uniform is straight, it feels a bit empty when she wears it.  Just looking at the background, it was impossible to tell whether she was a man or a woman, and working late at night for a long time made her voice as hoarse and unpleasant as a man's.

    Seeing her daughter with a bright smile, she rarely relaxed her expression, but soon she became serious again: "Captain Gu Wei, you went out privately again today."

    Gu Wei seemed to be used to her mother's blunt attitude. She walked to her mother with a smile, held her hand and said, "Mom, luckily I got there in time. The child's frostbite was already very serious. I took her to the hospital."  After getting in the snowmobile, I kept rubbing her whole body with snow cubes until she got to the health center. However, a few of the child's toes could not be saved. If she wears special shoes in the future, it will not affect her life. "

    Facing her daughter¡¯s bright smile, the female colonel could not maintain her seriousness.  He sighed: "You child, you are the only one in the family who always violates various regulations. When you perform operations on this child, you must have used anesthetics again, right? I have said it again and again. Anesthetics are a first-level controlled resource.  , for a long time, we simply couldn¡¯t produce it. A few days ago, Academician Zhong had a toothache and needed to have a tooth extracted. He is an old man in his 70s. In order to save some anesthesia, he did not have the tooth extracted with anesthesia. But you are good, but  Using such precious resources on an alien survivor"

    The female colonel became more and more angry as she spoke, and her voice gradually became louder. With her mother's accusations, the smile on Gu Wei's face gradually faded. She couldn't help but argue: "Mom, the child is still young. If we don't use anesthesia, it can be removed."  The severe pain in her toe would send her into shock. I couldn't take the chance."

    "This shows that you should not have brought this child back in the first place! It is strictly forbidden to take in foreign survivors, which is a resolution unanimously passed by the committee, Captain Gu Wei. Your unauthorized actions violated military orders!" The female colonel suddenly removed her daughter from her palm.  Withdrew his arm.

    Gu Wei has been making concessions since her mother entered the house, and now she can't bear it anymore. She sneered and said: "Committee? They are just your followers! They never object to anything you say. To them,  As long as we keep this home¡ªthis place that is barely surviving¡ªthat¡¯s enough!¡±

    Bang, a crisp slap sounded in the ward.

    The female colonel gave Gu Wei a hard slap in the face. Looking at the swollen palm prints on her daughter's face, the female colonel shouted sternly: "Captain Gu Wei, you have been detained for three days because you insulted your superiors and disobeyed orders."

    Gu Wei calmed down at this time. She trimmed her hair, raised her head and said, "Did I say something wrong? Huh, under the guise of saving all mankind, in fact, I am just shrinking here and being a tortoise. It's almost over."  It's been a year, but there's no trace of the legendary vaccine! It obviously has such powerful force. It can obviously save more survivors, but it has done nothing, just hide here and live a small life. Vaccine! Vaccine!  How long will it take for this thing to come out?! Maybe by the time you develop a vaccine, all the survivors outside will have died! By then, the vaccine will be useless!"

    The female colonel remained calm in the face of her daughter's questioning. She walked to the door and shouted: "Here comes someone."

    Immediately, a soldier wearing a "duty" red sleeve ran over and stood at attention: "Commander, please give instructions."

    "Arrest Captain Gu Wei, suspend all her duties and corresponding treatment, and conduct a trial by a military court. The crime is"

    "The crime is that the daughter disobeyed her mother." Another voice came from the door.

    The female colonel and Gu Wei turned their heads at the same time, and an old man came in the door. He had gray hair, rimless glasses, a tall and thin figure, and a thin and narrow face - his image appeared in the media many times during the SARS period, and also  Only he dares to say the truth that many people dare not say.

    The female colonel immediately greeted him: "Academician Zhong, why are you here?"

      The old man, who was called Academician Zhong, smiled and said, "I heard a daughter quarreling with her mother, so I came in to take a look."

    He said to the soldiers on duty who were still standing at attention: "Let's go, let's go, two women are quarreling, what are you doing to get involved?"

    The soldier on duty looked at the female colonel, who nodded imperceptibly. He quickly saluted Academician Zhong and exited the ward.

    The female colonel pulled up a chair and asked Academician Zhong to sit down: "Mr. Zhong, I'm so sorry that I alarmed you. Your time is so precious"

    Academician Zhong waved his hand: "There is nothing alarming about this old turtle that is still alive."

    Gu Wei's face turned red. She knew that the old man had heard everything she had said in a moment of urgency. She dared to accuse her mother, but she did not dare to be disrespectful to this old man with a very upright conscience. She turned to Academician Zhong with a blushing face.  Bowed: "Uncle Zhong, I'm sorry, I, I said nonsense."

    Academician Zhong waved his hand: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you. In fact, not only are you anxious, I am anxious too. You are right. A year has almost passed, but we have made no progress at all. Old man, I'm sorry for this  The young and old in our homeland have no face to see those comrades who have already sacrificed their lives. And the people we feel most sorry for are the countless survivors outside who are struggling to survive."

    There was silence in the ward for a while. Academician Zhong sighed and said to the female colonel: "Commander Xia Zhen, just think of me as asking you for a favor. Let this little girl stay at home. Her rations will come from me."  Every portion is deducted.¡±

    Female colonel Xia Zhen nodded: "I understand, I will notify the logistics department."

    Gu Wei was so angry that he gritted his teeth - his mother was so unkind, Academician Zhong was quite old.  How could his food quota be deducted?  !  She stood at attention and said loudly: "Captain Gu Wei, deputy chief physician of the field hospital, is reporting and asking for permission"

    Colonel Xia Zhen interrupted her: "Please do not allow it." She helped Academician Zhong up and said: "Mr. Zhong, I will accompany you home."

    Academician Zhong said: "People are old. Unlike young people who are sleepy, I have thought of some plans for vaccine research and am about to go to the laboratory. Commander Xia, if you are fine, come with me."

    Colonel Xia Zhen helped Academician Zhong walk a few steps when Academician Zhong turned around.  He said to Gu Wei who was gritting his teeth and staring: "Son, don't blame your mother, she is an amazing woman."

    Gu Wei was about to chase her out and continue arguing with her mother when a painful groan came from the hospital bed. She knew that this was the little girl's anesthetic that had failed. She didn't know why there was a lack of anesthetic in her home, so it was used for the child's surgery.  It is the minimum dose, after the effects of the drug wear off.  The child will be in great pain - the toes lost feeling due to necrosis of peripheral nerves after frostbite, but now after surgery, the necrotic part has been removed.  That kind of numb, itchy and painful feeling is not something a child can bear.  The reason why she stayed by the hospital bed was to take care of her child after the medicine wore off, but she didn't expect to have a big quarrel with her mother, and even scolded Academician Zhong for a while.

    Gu Wei hurriedly ran to the hospital bed and held the hand of the dancing child: "Good boy, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you have been saved."

    Not to mention Gu Wei taking care of the young patients, Colonel Xia Zhen helped Academician Zhong all the way to the top floor of the health center.

    After opening a gate guarded by two fully armed soldiers.  The two walked and talked.

    Academician Zhong sighed: "Commander Xia, everyone is in a bad mood. There must be a lot of people like Xiao Gu who are doubtful about the progress of the vaccine, but they don't dare to say it in public."

    Colonel Xia Zhen said hurriedly: "Academician Zhong, don't listen to this child Gu Wei's nonsense. She is always talking nonsense and violating discipline just because she is my child. I should have disciplined her well long ago."

    Academician Zhong shook his head: "Commander Xia, although I am immersed in the laboratory, it does not mean that I am really deaf to what is happening outside the window - in fact, not only the soldiers, but even the committee have no interest in vaccine development.  We are dissatisfied with the lack of progress. I have heard that many people are already discussing that instead of waiting for years to develop a successful vaccine, we should use the force we have to fight out, gather more survivors, expand the construction of our homes, and even  Simply occupy an old industrial city and use guns and cannons to kill zombies."

    "Short-sighted!" Xia Zhen said flatly: "As long as I am the commander of my homeland, I will never allow this kind of thing to happen at the expense of others."

    Academician Zhong said: "Don't blame them, they are actually good people - everyone in their homeland is a real warrior. They just can't bear to see the survivors outside suffering a lot, but they do nothing."

    Xia Zhen sighed: "Regarding this issue, when we were building our home,?This has been debated many times, and those who have different opinions have chosen their own path. I don't want to waste my precious time on this meaningless line dispute.  Looking left and right, losing ground, and ultimately accomplishing nothing.  I firmly believe that vaccines are our only hope.  Mr. Zhong, I believe you think so too.  "

    Academician Zhong nodded: "You are right, but once again, as a scientist, I tell you seriously that vaccine research is not a matter of luck. I cannot guarantee and cannot guarantee when it will be successful - maybe,  We can never succeed."

    Xia Zhen said flatly: "If we can't succeed, then leave this business to Gu Wei and the others. One day, we will definitely succeed."

    The two of them walked and talked all the way. On both sides of the laboratory they passed, there were anatomy beds with zombies tied up on them. Some were complete, and some were already in parts. There were also zombies placed beside the anatomy bed.  The glass container is filled with various kinds of internal organs in an unknown liquid. The most numerous ones are zombie heads. If you look closely, you can see that the lips and eyelids of the zombie head soaked in the container are still moving. You can see two people walking by.  , the teeth will also chatter and bite each other.

    There were several autopsy beds with smart zombies tied up. Their appearance was much neater and cleaner than the zombies. When they saw Academician Zhong and Commander Xia Zhen coming in, one of the smart zombies even said hello loudly: "Alas,  Old Zhong, are you here again? It¡¯s so tiring to stay awake so late. You¡¯re not a wise corpse, you can¡¯t imitate us and not sleep. You¡¯re not young anymore, so you need to take care of your health.¡±

    Commander Xia Zhen hasn¡¯t been to the laboratory for a while.  It was the first time I saw such a "enthusiastic" Zhizi, and I couldn't help but take a second look.

    Academician Zhong noticed her expression and said casually: "It - well, he knows me. You know, I am somewhat of a celebrity, and I have a high exposure rate. So after he was captured by our soldiers a few days ago,  He recognized me immediately.¡±

    Zhishi said dissatisfiedly: "Old Zhong, I not only know you, I admire you very much. What you have done deserves the evaluation of a traditional Chinese intellectual with backbone. But then again,  Lao Zhong, your research on me and my colleagues is all in vain. Really, I won¡¯t lie to you. I know what you are doing. Isn¡¯t it just researching vaccines? I can think of it with the heel of my leg as soon as I get here.  But you are doomed to fail. There is no vaccine for biochemical viruses. I think this thing is an evolution. Look at me, immortality, isn't it cool? I said, Lao Zhong, don't work in vain.  Really. You are over 70 years old now. 70 years of life are rare. Who knows when the Lord of Hell will come. If you ask me to bite you, you will be immortal like me. Good luck  If so, you can still retain your IQ like me and become what you call a wise corpse."

    Academician Zhong looked at Colonel Xia Zhen.  He winked mischievously like an old child and said, "Let's see how I tease him."

    As he spoke, he took out a strawberry from his pocket, deliberately stood in front of the chatty zombie, slowly put it into his mouth, took a bite, and said, "Hey. The strawberries in the greenhouse were harvested a little early.  It looks red and a little sour.¡±

    The verbose zombie¡¯s eyes were as wide as searchlights: ¡°Old Zhong, Old Zhong, you are not kind, you are not kind, you clearly know that what I crave the most right now is this bite, damn, you can¡¯t understand that we have no feelings at all.  The pain of a human being - even if I eat an apple in my dream, I still feel nothing. You are torturing me on purpose, right? It's too damaging to you."

    Academician Zhong ate the whole strawberry and wiped his mouth: "So, I don't want to be a walking zombie like you. What's the difference between this so-called 'alive' and dead."

    No longer paying attention to the intelligent corpse, Academician Zhong opened his office at the end of the laboratory, invited Colonel Xia Zhen to enter, and then closed the door with a bang, leaving only the intelligent corpse still muttering: "Who said I am dead?  I still feel good eating raw meat.¡±

    As soon as he entered the closed office, Academician Zhong immediately returned to his old self. He sat behind his desk and tapped the table with his fingers covered with age spots: "Commander Xia, you saw that biochemical viruses evolve too fast.  Too fast. What is the difference between that intelligent corpse and a human being? We have measured his metabolism, heartbeat, blood pressure, and body temperature to confirm that if this is really a human being, it can only be a vegetative state. But since he entered the laboratory  After that, I didn¡¯t eat a morsel of food or drink a sip of water, but I was still alive and kicking.¡±

    Colonel Xia Zhen remained calm. Academician Zhong¡¯s words were all commonplace. We had to deal with zombies in our home more than once or twice. At first, everyone would be surprised, but now they are familiar with it and turn a blind eye.  Everyone has to admit that these intelligent zombies are more advanced beings than ordinary zombies, and the "intelligent zombie" that Gu Wei accidentally blurted out has become the standard name for this new type of zombie.

    Enter Xia ZhenThe principal coughed: "Mr. Zhong, although I don't want to rush you, I still want to ask, how is the progress of the vaccine?"

    Academician Zhong did not answer. He fumbled and took out a key from his body. He walked to an insulated box with a password lock on the wall. He first entered a long list of passwords, then used the key to open a mechanical lock. Then, he opened the insulated box from the insulated box.  A test tube was carefully taken out of the box.

    In the test tube, there is a small half bottle of transparent liquid.

    Without Academician Zhong¡¯s introduction, Colonel Xia Zhen¡¯s breathing immediately became heavy - vaccine, this is the biochemical virus vaccine developed by Homeland after nearly a year of killing and injuring countless people.

    Academician Zhong¡¯s hand suddenly loosened, and the test tube fell to the ground. The wall of the glass tube broke easily under the impact of the cement floor, and the vaccine turned into a thin puddle of water on the ground.

    Before Colonel Xia Zhen could go crazy with anger, Academician Zhong chuckled bitterly and said, "Vaccine? This thing is not even as harmful to biochemical zombies as a pipe of water."

    "It failed, it failed completely."

    ¡°Biochemical viruses are completely different from any viruses I have studied in my life.¡±

    "You must know that any disease on the earth can actually find its source. They have existed on the earth for hundreds of millions of years. Some viruses are even as old as the earth. In the long history of evolution, they have continued to mutate and evolve.  . They have killed countless living creatures, but they have also been destroyed by the evolved immune systems of living creatures."

    "The pathogen of SARS comes from civets, AIDS comes from orangutans in the African forest, and bird flu comes from migratory birds - we can always find their original source. Find the original strain of the virus and peel away the layers of migration between different organisms.  Disguise, we will definitely find a way to kill it. Of course, from a pathological perspective, it is easy to kill any virus. The difficult thing is how to kill the virus itself without harming its host.  ¡ª¡ªpeople."
