Chapter 258 Threat
"Prosecutor Kim, is there something wrong?"
Lin Renna saw that Gu Ji's face darkened obviously.
Gu Ji did not answer, but continued to ask about the test report from the testing center. As he thought, there was still no progress.
You know, the one responsible for sampling and submitting samples for inspection is the Seoul Central Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC agency in the capital of South Korea, with their equipment and laboratory technician capabilities, couldn't identify a virulent virus that the WHO had already disclosed in half a day?
Obviously, someone must be causing trouble.
"CDC said that the researcher responsible for the identification suddenly took leave."
"It seems that they have taken action. This is Shansang's usual method. They want to delay time and suppress the matter before reporting it to the public."
Lin Renna has been fighting with Shansang for so many years and has already figured out all their dirty tricks.
"Shan Sang simply doesn't have the ability to suppress him."
Gu Jireng snorted.
Even if the Sansang Group can really dominate South Korea, it cannot really compete with the national government agencies.
Moreover, judging from the final outcome of the incident.
Even if the South Korean government tried its best, it could not prevent the spread of the MERS virus. After the incident, the following year, in 2016, another viral infection broke out in South Korea.
Lin Renna rolled her eyes and took out a voice recorder and notebook from her handbag.
"How about, Prosecutor Jin, please give me the materials and information you have at hand first, and I will write some reports and send them out on the online media. Maybe it will make Shan Sang take notice."
"That's all we can do now."
While Gu Ji recounted to Lin Renna everything that happened in the hospital emergency room during the day, as well as the diagnostic analysis he and the two doctors made, he took out his phone and asked his subordinate Zhang Shiyun to investigate the file information and home address of CDC researcher Jiang Chengxun.
That's right.
He planned to use a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, he would use public opinion to put pressure on Shan Sang. On the other hand, he would privately look for Jiang Chengxun and find a way to get him to announce the identification results.
Suppose Shansang sent someone to kidnap Jiang Chengxun, or go even further and kill him directly.
Then Gu Ji doesn't have to worry.
Because prosecutors have great judicial power in South Korea, they can mobilize their investigators, local police stations and customs officials at will.
If Shan Sang really dares to commit a crime, he can justifiably use the power of the prosecutor to investigate.
"Prosecutor Kim, is that all?"
"That's all. During the day, many people in the hospital took out their mobile phones to record the video, and people from the CDC were also photographed. It is estimated that it has been posted online by this time. You can search for it."
"Okay, thank you very much Prosecutor Jin for the information. I will work overtime when I get back tonight to write out the news!"
Lin Renna closed her notebook, stood up and bowed to Gu Ji.
After leaving the coffee shop, Gu Ji drove back to his apartment.
He also found the address from the life information on the mobile phone software. It is a luxury apartment located in the center of Seoul. With the salary level of a Korean prosecutor, "Kim Ji-jiu" can definitely afford it.
Fortunately.
Although this guy has some photos of women on his phone, he is still single, which is undoubtedly a lot more convenient.
When he got home, from getting off the car to entering the elevator, Gu Ji kept disinfecting himself with alcohol.
Although the apartment of "Jin Jijiu" is not large in size, the decoration and appliances inside are very exquisite, all in dark black matte style. Sitting in front of the sofa in the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, you can have an overview of the neon bustling city of Seoul.
He took off his clothes and carefully sprayed his body with alcohol to disinfect his body. Finally, he took a hot bath and put on new clothes.
Open some software commonly used by Koreans such as NAVER Cafe and Little Bluebird.
Gu Ji searched for information about the Sansang Hospital in Seoul during the day. Most of them were information on treatment, rescue, and help. There were only a few items related to the CDC and MERS, and they were all blurry photos.
During the day, there were at least a thousand people in the lobby and department corridors of the emergency department, and at least a hundred people took videos and photos. There were security guards and patients in the corridor, and they also heard the quarrel between him and Li Minfu. Logically speaking, there should not be so little information. That's right.
It seems that Shan Sang's hand was at work again.
With heavy sleepiness, Gu Ji fell asleep on the sofa.
The next morning, he was woken up by the sunshine from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, it was now seven o'clock in the morning. I opened my phone. The first message was Lin Renna. The message sent at about three o'clock last night said that the news had been sent out. Although other media platforms had little effect, they But it caused a heated discussion on Little Bluebird.
After all, there is an American company behind Little Blue Bird.
Take a look at what time it is. The title of the article is:
A virulent virus with a suspected fatality rate of 38% has invaded South Korea? A patient highly suspected to be infected with standard MERS was discovered at Sansang Hospital in Seoul!
Currently, the number of likes on this article has exceeded 1,000, and there are more than 300 comments.
[Ah Yigu, is what she said true? 】
[It’s true. Yesterday I went with my girlfriend to see a doctor. I saw the CDC wearing protective clothing entering the emergency department. I heard that prosecutors were also involved. Something big must have happened. Please don’t go to Sansang Hospital recently. 】
[Axiba, it’s so scary. I quickly went to the supermarket to stock up on some food! 】
[It’s all gone. It must be fake. If there is really a virulent virus, do you think the government can not inform us? 】
[Please click on this person’s homepage. This person is a professional black fan. He was probably bought by a hostile business to splash mulberry waste. 】
…
It says everything in the comments.
However, Gu Ji found out that there was a private user account specifically for criticizing and reporting Lin Renna. It was most likely a troll from the public relations department of Shansang Media.
However, Lin Renna's professional level is quite good.
Three elements of news: authenticity, timeliness, and freshness.
The content of the article was written in a tense, serious, well-founded and attractive way, and she rushed to publish it in the early morning in order to attract the group of witnesses who were in the emergency room yesterday as quickly as possible.
At least the "MERS virus" thing has begun to ferment.
It was only a matter of time before it caused a stir.
Gu Ji called CDC researcher Jiang Chengxun again, but the phone was still turned off.
At this time, Jang Se-yoon suddenly sent a message saying that the file address of "Kang Sung-hoon" had been found and a photo of the document was sent.
Gu Ji didn't even have time to wash up, so he quickly grabbed his briefcase and rushed to the underground parking lot.
Jiang Chengxun's home is in the south of Seoul, next to Pyeongtaek City.
When we arrived at the address, it was a mid-rise apartment in the suburbs.
He parked his car downstairs and showed his ID to the property manager. Then the security staff took him in the elevator to the center of the fifth floor.
Gu Ji knocked on the security door to identify himself.
"Jiang Chengxun, I am Jin Jijiu, please open the door, Jiang Chengxun..."
"Stop knocking, Chengxun is not at home."
Just as he yelled twice, the security door suddenly opened next door, and it was an old woman with silver hair. He looked at Gu Ji curiously, wearing a suit, a mask, and gloves, "You are..." "
"I'm a prosecutor from the Central District Prosecutor's Office. I have important matters to see Jiang Chengxun. People at work said he took leave and went home. You said he didn't come back last night, right?"
When Gu Ji saw that the other person was an old man, he deliberately took a few steps back to avoid spreading the virus.
"This should be."
The old lady seemed to be very familiar with Jiang Chengxun, and said slowly: "I usually sleep very lightly, and the sound insulation of this apartment is not very good. Every time Chengxun comes back, I can hear it. I am sure he did not come back last night." , didn’t you call him?”
"His phone is off."
"Oh, maybe he returned to his hometown due to some urgent matters. His mother's health has never been very good, and she gets sick basically once a year."
"Hometown?"
Gu Ji took out his phone and found Jiang Chengxun's hometown address from the file, which was located in a remote village in Gijang County, Busan City.
He tried to call the landline number above, but unexpectedly it actually got through.
A voice called "Aniha Seyo" came from the other side of the phone, and it was Jiang Chengxun's voice.
"Jiang Chengxun, I am Jin Zhi..."
"Dudududu!"
Before Gu Ji could finish speaking, the other end of the phone was hung up. When he called again, he was told that the call could not be connected, perhaps because the phone line had been unplugged.
Jiang Chengxun behaves so strangely.
There is only one possibility.
He is threatened!
So Gu Ji found Jang Se-yun again and asked him to contact the police station in Gijang County, Busan City and go to Jang Se-yun's hometown to investigate the situation.
After doing all this, he drove to the Central Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Seoul.
On the way, he found a black Hyundai car on the right side behind him. If he remembered correctly, Gu Ji saw this car when he came out of the underground parking lot in the morning. Even the license plate was exactly the same.
Someone is following me!
It seems that not only Jiang Chengxun, but also someone has started to attack him.
But who is Gu Ji?
A master of counter-reconnaissance, bomb levels, and Japan's overseas operations, he has already practiced "disguise tracking" very well.
Directly lead the tracking vehicle into the city, specifically lead it to an area with many traffic lights, and use the "accordion effect" to frequently stop and start, quickly throwing away the tracking vehicle.
Arrive at the CDC parking lot.
Gu Ji directly showed his ID and found the person in charge of the inspection center.
"How are the test results sent for yesterday?"
"The test results have come out, it's bacterial pneumonia."
The person in charge was a middle-aged uncle wearing black-rimmed glasses. He pulled up the identification documents from his computer, which showed that the virus-specific IGM antibodies had increased fourfold.
But Gu Ji discovered something was wrong.
"Isn't there a total of four samples, divided into two people, two blood samples, two lower respiratory tract extracts, and there is only one serum report here!"
"Four samples? I don't know that. We only received one sample for testing."
"One copy? Where is the person who brought the samples back yesterday?"
"Jiang Chengxun is responsible for these samples. He took leave and went home last night."
The person in charge passed the responsibility to Jiang Chengxun again.
Seeing this scene, Gu Jizhen wanted to punch the other person in the face. The Central CDC ignored such an obvious cover-up. Are they really not afraid of the spread of the virus?
"Then I can find someone to go to the hospital to take samples now, okay?"
"Seoul Sansang Hospital has its own laboratory testing center. Unless there are special circumstances, we generally do not participate."
The person in charge spread his hands as if it had nothing to do with him.
This road doesn't work anymore.
Gu Ji quickly made a judgment. He knew that the two patients must have been isolated by Shansang Hospital long ago and had no chance to obtain samples.
Now there are only three roads left.
One is to find Jiang Chengxun, the other is to create a public opinion offensive on the Internet through Lin Inna, and the other is...
Director of the respiratory department of the emergency room: Han Zaiyuan!
That's right.
Although Han Zaiyuan had a somewhat bad attitude towards him at the time, judging from the way he tried his best to save people, he should be a good doctor who treated his patients sincerely.
If he can get the identification report of the MERS virus or patient samples through Han Zaiyuan, then things will turn around.
So he decisively left the CDC.
Emergency Department, Sansang Hospital, Seoul.
On weekend mornings, there was still a steady flow of people coming and going in the parking lot, even more than yesterday.
"Cough cough cough..."
"Ouch! It hurts so much!"
"Doctor! Doctor! Please save me no matter what..."
In the lobby of the emergency room, there are countless patients coming to see the doctor. One group is sitting on chairs waiting to be called. Another group is gathering at the triage table to let the nurse decide which number to call. There are also a group of people blocking the registration window, waving their hands. Korean won and credit card.
Gu Ji couldn't imagine it.
If a nosocomial infection occurs, how many people will carry the virus out?
He walked down the hall to the respiratory department.
The stools in front of the department door were also crowded with people. Through the crack in the door, Gu Ji heard the moans of patients coming from inside, as if they were undergoing a physical examination.
open the door.
The nurse inside shouted: "Close the door quickly! Are you here to do... Jin, Prosecutor Jin?"
Unexpectedly, the female nurse was the same Xizhen who helped the white-haired old man and his family yesterday.
She didn't react at first, but she didn't recognize Gu Ji until she saw the green N95 mask he was wearing and his sharp eyes.
Hearing the word "prosecutor", Han Zaiyuan, who was examining the patient, turned around in surprise, "Prosecutor Jin, what are you doing here?"
"I have something important to discuss with you, something related to the people of Seoul..."
"Xizhen, take the patient to take a film first."
"okay."
Halfway through Gu's words, Han Zaiyuan felt something and hurriedly interrupted him and sent everyone in the department away.
After everyone leaves.
He just closed the door and stared into Gu Ji's eyes with a serious face.
"Stop talking nonsense, please leave the emergency room immediately. Now the hospital's senior management is very dissatisfied with you!"
"What are you dissatisfied with? Are you dissatisfied that I told the truth?"
Gu Ji squinted his eyes and looked at Han Zaiyuan's anxious and panicked look. He knew in his heart that it had been confirmed that the patient carried the MERS virus.
"What is the truth?"
Han Zaiyuan asked him back, "CDC has sent news this morning. The serum test showed that the patient only had bacterial pneumonia."
"Oh? Not to mention the problem of sample loss, bacterial pneumonia deserves your attention. From the moment I entered the door, all the medical staff in the hospital put on masks and gloves. The infectious ability of ordinary pneumonia seems to be Not so strong, right?"
