Dense Fog

After the meeting, two days passed in a daze. Except that I couldn’t leave the school, I heard from time to time that there were mutants in some departments, and the teacher’s roll call during class became more and more strict, and absenteeism would be taken care of immediately. Everything else was as usual.

Lin Wu didn't understand at first why the school would continue to teach after such a big event happened.Later, I gradually recollected it. This time is different from the heavy fog not long ago. At that time, the school was closed and classes were closed. Everyone knew that it was because of the bad weather. Just wait patiently for the fog to pass. But now, if the two points and one line Routine is broken, and no one knows what to expect next.

Sometimes, the order of life is the most solid psychological support. When facing a storm, it will keep people from collapsing no matter how anxious they are, and never lose control no matter how frightened they are.

However, when passing each other on campus, you can still clearly feel the vigilance and nervousness among the strangers, as if you are afraid that if you are not careful, you will encounter a "mutant".

On the third day, Ren Feiyu couldn't take it anymore and wanted to go to the academy to "surrender himself".Although he didn't experience any abnormalities again, what happened that night weighed on his heart like a burden, which made him unable to sleep or eat well for the past few days, and the youthful collagen on his face began to lose.

"Then go." Lin Wu and the three of them have always supported Ren Feiyu unconditionally.If Daewoo wanted to go to the room, they would build a ladder; if Daewoo wanted to drink soup, they would stew chicken.

Ren Feiyu was sad: "But if I go, I will definitely have to be hospitalized..."

Lin Wu said: "It's a big deal, we will accompany you."

Ren Feiyu shook his head immediately: "That won't work, you haven't mutated."

Li Junchi held his left arm: "You are hospitalized, can we be far behind?"

Xia Yang picked up his right arm: "Let's go, my brother."

The four of them generously went to the college office, and told the counselor about the situation, including how Ren Feiyu fell and fell that night, so detailed that they almost could act it out.

The counselor took a small notebook to record the whole process in detail, and interrupted to ask a few questions such as "Is it just that one abnormal reaction", "Is there any other physical discomfort?" and so on.

Ren Feiyu answered all honestly, and those who answered were not comprehensive enough, and the three brothers next to him "checked for gaps and made up for gaps".

After all the situation was reported, the four of them stood there holding their breaths and waited.

As soon as the counselor put down the pen, he closed the notebook: "Okay, let's go back first."

...seems to be a bit different than expected?

"Don't you need to go to the hospital?" Ren Feiyu was most afraid of this before he came here. In fact, he was hiding his illness and avoiding medical treatment. But now that the instructor doesn't mention it, he has no idea.

"No need. I just received the notice. From now on, if the degree of physical abnormality does not affect normal life, the college will record the information and report it." The counselor has actually been dizzy for the past two days, and can only be As soon as the order is moved, he will convey the spirit to the students, "Go back and continue to pay attention to the changes in the body, and let me know if there is any new situation."

The four looked at each other.

Lin Wu asked: "Mr. Gao, what kind of abnormality is considered to affect normal life?"

"Wait a minute," the counselor dug out the notice file that was pressed down in the small book, turned to the relevant information page, and began to read, "Any behavior that endangers oneself, others or public safety, including but not limited to emotional loss, manic violence, beating Destruction, uncoordinated behavior, etc..."

Don't "wait" anymore, this is already frightening.If Ren Feiyu hadn't been supported by Xia Yang and Li Junchi, he would have sat on the ground in despair due to this gloomy future.

Lin Wu's voice became more serious: "Teacher, can physical abnormalities really cause these? How long does it usually take to happen..."

Counselor: "It has not been found yet, these are just estimates for the worst case."

Lin Wu, Xia Yang, Li Junchi, Ren Feiyu: "..."

Is your sense of crisis in this document too strong!

A visit to the college office is like a roller coaster ride in the heart. Fortunately, although the final result is not completely solid, it is still a lot of reassuring.

With a sigh of relief, the four turned and left.

About to walk out of the office door, I suddenly heard the counselor sternly shout: "Stop!"

The four froze and turned around in horror.Didn't you just remember what severe measures you forgot?

"Just now, you guys almost got mixed up with me," the counselor jumped up, "How many times have I told you that you must pay attention to safety on the upper bunk, you must pay attention to safety, and you all fell off me?! "

Lin Wu: "..."

Li Junchi: "..."

Xia Yang: "..."

Ren Feiyu: "No, I just want a Coke..."

Teacher Gao: "You can drop a Coke, tell me how crazy you are in the dormitory? I really..."

"It's not that I'm talking about you, you're all grown up, can you save me some trouble..."

"It's nineteen or twenty, can the teacher still follow you every day like junior high school and high school? No. I know you need freedom, space, and the madness and enthusiasm of youth..."

For the next half an hour, the four of them stood in the college office like this, listening to the earnest teachings.

The first 15 minutes belonged to Mr. Gao, and Mr. Chen, who was out for a meeting in the last 15 minutes, came back, so he handed over the baton and continued.

When communicating about mutation-related situations, the school teachers who can only take documents and explain the subject according to the text, once they enter the field they are familiar with, they are full of ideas, literary talent, and literary stars.

When they finally left, the four of them had the urge to unload all the dormitory bed boards and directly lay on the floor.

After returning to the dormitory, they were relieved.

Li Junchi: "It's so strange. Didn't someone from another hospital be sent to the hospital yesterday? Why isn't it used today?"

Xia Yang: "Didn't it mean a new notice?"

Li Junchi: "But it's only been three days since the school assembly was held, so the changes are too fast, right?"

"There may be new cases of this unknown mutation every day," Lin Wu pondered. "I estimate that measures should be adjusted only after further discoveries have been made."

Sure enough, at night, the news broadcast the second briefing——

"None of the people with physical abnormalities found in various provinces and cities has deteriorated their physical health or lost control of their behavior. The initial 'sense of loss of control' of the abnormal people mostly comes from the emotional fluctuations caused by panic. After counseling, they can control their behavior normally. , does not affect daily life..."

"But the abnormal symptoms of the body have not disappeared..."

"During the examination of the abnormal people, we found that all the abnormal people have 'gene activation' to varying degrees, which is the direct cause of the abnormal body..."

"But the cause of 'gene activation' is still unclear..."

After the briefing, the experts answered the reporter's questions——

Reporter: "Can you explain in more detail what you just said about 'gene activation'?"

Expert: "There are many gene fragments in our human body. Although they exist, they should be closed under normal circumstances. That is to say, the information carried by these gene fragments will not be reflected in our body. 'Gene activation' , refers to these gene fragments that were originally closed, reopened for some reason, causing abnormal changes in people."

Reporter: "Then why are there different types of abnormalities besides different degrees? Some are respiratory system, some are motor nerves..."

Expert: "This is still being studied at this stage, but in fact, every abnormal person does not have a single physical change, but one of them is particularly significant, and it will cover up the others."

Reporter: "Is such a physical abnormality contagious?"

Expert: "At present, no clear chain of infection has been found among abnormal people."

Reporter: "But there must be a reason for such a large-scale outbreak."

Expert: "As I just said, the cause of 'gene activation' needs further research."

Reporter: "How long will this abnormality last?"

Expert: "The gene has been activated, and the changes it brings will always be reflected in the human body."

Reporter: "That is to say, this situation will not 'self-heal'?"

Expert: "At present, the possibility is extremely low."

Reporter: "What about targeted treatment?"

Expert: "We tried some 'suppression schemes', but none of them worked. The genetic problem is a very complex and grand field, and we still need time."

Reporter: "You just said in the briefing that all abnormal people can control their behavior after counseling, without affecting their daily life?"

Expert: "Some abnormal people can continue to live normally without even needing counseling..."

Before the live broadcast was over, Ren Feiyu stood up excitedly: "Did you hear me, I'm not stupid, crazy, or contagious, just activate something, I can still live normally..."

The fear that had been suppressed for several days finally cleared up at this moment.Ren Feiyu, who suddenly relaxed, couldn't control it any longer. After the catastrophe, Yu Sheng was so happy that he was going crazy, but the words he said were crying.

"I heard it." The three walked over, surrounded Ren Feiyu, and hugged the crying guy tightly.

Ren Feiyu was afraid, so they were not.

They are not yet 20 years old, and they are far from being as strong as they think.

Lin Wu raised his head slightly and took a deep breath, then said, "Not only can you live normally now, but you can also study normally, attend classes and take exams normally."

"That's great," Ren Feiyu sniffed, saying every word from the bottom of his heart, "I just found out now that I really love studying..."

Lin Wu wanted to hug him even harder: "Treasure this moment."

Li Junchi and Xia Yang: "Because love is always fleeting."

In the next two weeks, with more research findings and news reports, this "group physical abnormality" became more and more clear-

"A storm of mutations has set off around the world..."

"Scientists from many countries have discovered that the genes that cause physical abnormalities are the oldest and most primitive gene fragments in the human body. Before humans appeared, these gene fragments were already common in various animals..."

"The physical and behavioral changes of abnormal people all present a certain type or even a specific animal nature. Experts say that this may be related to the difference in the activated gene fragments..."
