"Influenza?" Rong Yuan's eyes sank, and the first thing he thought of was Kayul's virus experiment, and he asked, "Are there any uninvited guests from alien planets on Earth recently?"

"No." Noah gave the answer directly.

But Rong Yuan can't directly believe that.Perhaps when the Kayul company releases the virus, it will not come directly to the surface of the earth, but will be released directly from space.If it is far away, you only need to freeze the virus in ice and launch it to the earth. The ice will rub and melt in the atmosphere, and the virus will spread silently on the surface of the earth. In this way, Noah has mastered the control of the entire planet. Surveillance can't detect the clues.

Over the years, human beings have become more and more perfect in monitoring the earth. If Kayul Corporation does not want to arouse the vigilance and discussion of the indigenous humans on the earth, the possibility of adopting this method is very high.

As for Wu Xi, he is not a human being. If he went to Juniper Country because of this influenza, then the reason is very interesting.

Rong Yuan asked Noah about the cause of the cold outbreak, the scope of its influence, and the speed of transmission, etc. Rong Yuan thought for a moment and made a decision: "I'm going to go there in person and ask Emirida and Little A to come over. "For the sake of research, it is common for him not to show up for three to five days. Even if he leaves for a period of time, no one will notice.But just in case, he needs little A to occasionally turn into his appearance and walk around the research institute twice, and at the same time let Emerida cover.

……

City L in Juniper Country is a city with low temperatures all year round. Even though the ground in Sugar Country is so hot that eggs can be cooked, the citizens of City L are still wearing long-sleeved shirts. Wear a vest or coat over the outside.Even at the hottest time at noon, the temperature did not exceed twenty degrees.

This time of year is the tourist season in L City, and the streets are bustling with tourists, shoulder to shoulder, very lively.However, at this time, it was very deserted, and even the local citizens rarely wandered on the street. People covered their faces and lowered their heads, and hurriedly passed by, and a few leaves circled in the cool wind. Sliding through the middle of the road, there are very few vehicles.The most common ones on the road are tourists from the sugar country. They happily hold up selfie sticks and wave small red flags. The discolored cold smile that is serious.

A homeless man wearing an army green coat was sitting on the ground, holding a guitar in his arms, and casually plucked a widely spread variation with his fingers. Show some vitality.The big yellow dog with a miserable face was lying beside him, pressing its paws on the small iron bucket in front of him.

On the way from the suburbs to the L City Hospital, Rong Yuan, who was sitting in a taxi, saw such depressing scenes.After getting off the car, looking at the only bustling place in the whole city before him, Rong Yuan said softly: "Noah, the impact of this viral flu seems to be greater than what you told me."

"It's spreading too fast." Noah argued: "One day ago, more than half of the factories in L City were operating normally! Now the city's disease rate has exceeded 80.00%. There are varying degrees of virus outbreaks in all regions, and similar disease symptoms have been found in several surrounding countries.

This type of influenza is temporarily named "UCOC disease".When the disease first broke out, it didn't attract people's attention. After all, the climate in Juniper Country is cold, and the average number of times a person catches a cold is at least two or three times a year. The symptoms this time are very similar to those in the past. Forget about ordering medicine, only a few people with more serious symptoms choose to see a doctor.After a short period of fermentation, the condition worsened, and many people didn't even have the strength to walk out of the house, so they had to call for help.At this point, the unresponsive L city government approved the emergency plan for epidemic control, but soon, the same cold symptoms appeared in the urban areas around L city.

Today, all sea, land and air transportation in L City is restricted, and other countries’ plans to travel to Juniper Country have also been cancelled. Many high-level diplomatic visit plans have suddenly been aborted, and foreign investment plans have also entered the wait-and-see stage. In addition, tourism, entertainment, Industries such as catering, retail and transportation have all been hit hard.

——All these changes happened rapidly within a day or two.

The worst thing is that no one can draw a definite conclusion on how this viral cold that spreads so fast came into being. Even so far, no drug can be found to effectively treat UCOC. The experts could only watch the patient's condition continue to deteriorate, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't curb the rate of deterioration.

People are not afraid of disease, what is worth fearing is the disease that cannot be cured.

So far, this kind of UCOC disease has only revealed a half-faced face.

Later, when Rong Yuan was still on the aircraft, the No.1 deceased person appeared.Then it was like knocking down the dominoes, patients died one after another, and the hospital was full of crying.At the request of the government, schools were closed, factories were closed, and everyone stayed at home as much as possible to avoid mutual infection.Although there are many sick people, the hospitals are already overcrowded, and most patients can only go home after receiving the medicine and rely on themselves or their family members to take care of themselves.

"Originally, in our Juniper Country, we couldn't even get a big news page, but now 80.00% of the countries are broadcasting this event, and basically all major media websites put it on the homepage... Although It still didn’t make the headlines, but it’s still in the top ten.” Noah concluded his statement.

"They won't be happy about it." Rong Yuan stared at the hospital gate for a while, and said, "Wu Xi is inside?"

"Yes, his hand was scratched and exploded in the hospital, and he has been there for most of the day." Noah said.

"What is he doing?"

"I can't see it, he's monitoring a blind spot." Noah loves to show off his skills, and in case Rong Yuan thinks it's not there, he immediately added: "But I can tell you which room he is in."

"Yeah." Rong Yuan agreed, stroked the mimetic dress on his wrist, bought some flowers outside the hospital door, and walked in as if visiting a patient.

……

Even in the distant Juniper Country, Wu Xi is very popular.He is sitting sideways on a hospital bed, with a little blond boy sitting on his knees, surrounded by many fans, enthusiastically wanting his autograph or shaking hands with him, the ward is filled with excited and enthusiastic pink bubbles , the powerful power of fans even the illness was temporarily retreated.Looking at a group of people who seemed to be so excited that they could pass out even if they looked at each other, even passers-by who didn't know who Wu Xi was would be infected by this atmosphere, standing around involuntarily longing for an autograph.

Wu Xi is well versed in the art of speaking, but in a moment he naturally led the topic to this cold, and learned the most intuitive and specific symptoms and feelings from the patient. At the same time, he kept his hand on the arm of the child in his arms and glanced slightly Red plaques on the sick body.

Patients with UCOC will initially have some small red spots that look like bleeding spots, and these red spots will slowly spread into inconspicuous erythema within two or three days.Then on the day when the condition suddenly worsened, the erythema would turn into a crimson lump the size of a baby's palm in just a few minutes. Although the swelling was not obvious, it would be firm and numb and painful to press.In the next less than a day at most, the surface of the tumor will become bright and bright, and a light yellow liquid can be faintly seen inside, and the patient will die immediately.

Short latency and acute onset are the characteristics of UCOC.

There are other symptoms such as fever, headache, runny nose, nausea, and constipation similar to a severe cold. In Wu Xi's eyes, they are just the unique appearance of this special creature, human beings.The focus of this large-scale cold is still on the lumps on the patients.

A silver light flashed from the ring on his hand and disappeared. The little boy who was held in Wu Xi's arms felt bitten by a mosquito. He reached out and touched his elbow. He didn't catch the expected mosquito, so he scratched The face gave up.

When the people in front of him could not provide him with more sample materials and information, Wu Xi left with a gentle smile.The unrestrained demeanor he showed without fear of the virus, and without the slightest flinch or disgust towards the patients is heart-wrenching, and almost everyone he gets along with has become his die-hard fan.Wu Xi bid farewell one by one, agreed to several invitations, and talked for nearly half an hour before standing up under the eyes of everyone, and walking towards the door.

An ordinary-looking middle-aged man from the Juniper Kingdom leaned against the door frame with his chest folded, staring at him without the slightest fascination, and there was a hint of sarcasm in the slightly raised corners of his mouth.

— a little... familiar...

Wu Xi paused, thinking with some uncertainty.

Remarks: UCOC here is not carboxylated osteocalcin.
