Chapter 276 Wall
It is naturally not easy for someone to become the chief secretary of the Blue House.
Gu Ji knew in his heart that Li Xuanzhen had long guessed that he had been targeting the Wushan base and must have other desires besides the MERS virus.
There was nothing he couldn't say.
Anyway, "Jin Jijiu" himself has the title of investigating the Osan base laboratory explosion case. Calculating this, the role assigned to him by the game this time can be said to be quite reasonable.
After listening to Gu Ji describe everything he saw.
Even at her age, Li Xuanzhen was a little helpless. She stared straight ahead into nothingness, as if she had lost her soul.
After a long time, he realized that he had lost his composure.
"I understand. Thank you for the information you provided. Regarding the Wushan Laboratory, please refrain from making any announcements to the public, including your boss, for the time being."
"Understood, Director Li."
Prosecutors investigated the Osan base in order to use the information to blackmail senior military officials.
The person behind the secretary's office is the President of South Korea. Lee Hyun-jung said this. It seems that the President is preparing to take action himself and does not want the prosecutor to seize the opportunity.
Come out of the Blue House.
Gu Ji continued to think about the content of "Operation White Coat".
He carefully combed through all the text fragments he saw, and temporarily came up with a few relatively simple guesses:
1. Are the weapons-grade anthrax and special staphylococci that the military used to attack him related to the planned "special deadly pathogenic organisms"?
Special microorganisms come from a giant object called the "Eighth Ball";
So was the "eighth ball" independently developed by the United States, or was it an unknown item obtained through some means?
Gu Ji prefers the second option.
This is also his second hypothesis;
The action book mentions that "Operation White Coat" is a virus defense plan.
If the "eighth ball" was really self-developed by a certain department or laboratory in the United States, why waste so much effort on defending itself?
Make a judgment based on both.
The U.S. military supposedly obtained the "Eighth Ball" by accident and extracted a special deadly pathogenic organism from it.
On the one hand, it is using the "Paperclip Project" after World War II to introduce a large number of Hans scientists, plus the information of Unit 731 in exchange for secret verbal agreements, to research and derive various special bacteria and viruses;
On the other hand, the government and military are also worried about backlash.
Therefore, in order to prevent the leakage of lethal substances and the outbreak of biochemical crises, "Operation White Coat" was formulated to conduct targeted drills in advance, just like the "201" global epidemic drill organized by the director of the CIA when the DePauw Laboratory was closed in 2019.
The purpose is to nip problems in the bud.
The circulation network was clarified.
Gu Ji had more questions in his mind.
Where does the "eighth ball" come from, and is it related to the game? Will there be a "seventh ball", a "sixth ball", etc.?
Including Wang Xueming's previous interrogation of Ryomoto Shado Moto Shuichi, this guy once said that the "Paradise" drug was stolen from the Xiaguo Research Institute, and it was only one of its derivatives, so could it also be related to "Special Staphylococcus aureus" The same thing, also comes from "a certain ball"?
All kinds of complicated problems piled up in front of him.
Just like the Jingzhou Ring Road during the evening rush hour, all the vehicles were blocked at the intersection and motionless.
"It seems we still have to find a way to collect more intelligence."
Gu Ji gave up "Operation White Coat" for the time being and switched to focusing on MERS infection.
After all his troubles.
Almost all the main sources of virus outbreaks in South Korea were strangled in their cradle by him, and the remaining infected people and close contacts were quarantined and observed by the CDC and major private hospitals.
As of July 18, South Korea has had no new MERS cases and no deaths for 13 consecutive days, and the number of people who have recovered and been discharged has increased to 135.
At 0:00 on July 27, 2015, the last quarantine subject of the MERS incident in South Korea was released from quarantine.
According to World Health Organization standards, if there are no new cases within 28 days from the date the last patient recovers, the public health event can be declared over.
So at half past seven that morning.
The Blue House held a press conference, and the President of South Korea personally announced that the 2015 MERS incident was completely over.
At that moment, the AM hospital ward cheered collectively.
Through the window, Gu Ji could even hear a series of car horns ringing outside the street.
It took 68 days since the first first-generation infected person, the white-haired uncle, was diagnosed on May 20. This national public health crisis, which would go down in South Korea’s history, finally ended safely.
Fortunately, thanks to Gu Ji's tough approach to investigate the Wushan base.
The death toll was also narrowly kept at 36.
[The ultimate goal: completely prevent the public health emergency in South Korea and control the number of confirmed deaths below 36 people! 】
[Open the hidden goal: Find the "wall" of the South Korean virus crisis! 】
Gu Ji looked at the game text floating in front of him.
To be honest, I haven’t experienced this classic level in person.
He may also follow the summary of events recorded by the World Health Organization, thinking that this is just the inaction of the Korean government and that the chaebol are unscrupulous in pursuit of profits;
But in fact;
The real "wall" is much more than that.
The Korean people themselves also have a selfish side; leaving aside the "ugly things" he witnessed in the clinic lobby, just take the two patients who spread the virus across borders, knowing that they were close contacts, Still no adjustments to the itinerary.
Supermarkets compete for food, masks, medicines and scalpers sell them to sky-high prices, ignore quarantine regulations, forcibly visit infected people, and many other things...
But what frightened Gu Ji the most.
Or the military represented by Osan Base.
Human life is barely considered human life.
And since he reported the matter to Lee Hyun-jung, until now, Blue House has still not given any explanation, nor has it officially publicly investigated the Osan base.
Even the fact that he was attacked was covered up by the Blue House security room.
"Prosecutor Jin, it turns out you are here. I called you several times." Behind him, an elegant and tall figure walked towards the corner, it was Jiang Youzhen.
As a director of AM Medical.
Thanks to Gu Ji's help in the MERS incident, she can be said to be the biggest winner this time.
Not only has she successfully built the brand of AM Hospital through expert live broadcasts and excellent management methods, but she has also made a lot of money from medical protective equipment alone.
"Maybe I didn't pay attention just now."
Gu Ji had just been attracted by the sight of the people celebrating and the game missions.
Jiang Youzhen stroked the ends of his hair and smiled slightly, "I brought them here because some patients called for you."
After she finished speaking, two people appeared behind her.
He had met these two people before. They were Cui Idou's grandmother and mother whom he had met in the clinic before.
Although grandma was infected with MERS.
But AM's medical skills were good, and she was protected by the state, so she was not afraid of spending money. She finally recovered by luck. She was hunched over, supported by her middle-aged daughter, and walked to Gu Ji with a tremble.
"Old man, you should rest more, why..."
"Child, no, Prosecutor Jin, Director Jiang told me everything about you and Il Dou. Il Dou is really not a kid. It's all my fault for being an unfilial son. He has been gambling since he was a child, and often followed some unscrupulous people. People come and go and lead him to bad things. Prosecutor Jin, can you let me treat him regardless of the past suspicions? I really..."
As she spoke, the old lady's voice became choked with sobs, and she even had to kneel down a few times.
Gu Ji and Jiang Youzhen hurriedly stretched out their hands to stop him.
The middle-aged woman who was supporting the old Korean lady took out a banner from her arms and unfolded it. The names of AM Hospital and "Prosecutor Kim Ji-goo" were clearly written on it.
"Grandma, Auntie, you are so kind. I am just an errand boy. It is the hospital and the country that really cured your health. You have to thank Director Jiang."
"Prosecutor Kim, you are too humble. Without you, AM Hospital would have been investigated by the government long ago like Sansang and Mary."
Jiang Youzhen didn't expect that Gu Ji would take the credit for himself.
When he turned around in surprise, the sunlight from the corridor window hit Gu Ji's rough side face, as if with some kind of halo.
The respect for him in his eyes increased a bit, and there were even some other factors hidden in his eyes.
"Prosecutor Jin, you must accept it!"
The old lady thrust the banner into Gu Ji's hand, "Not only do I thank you for curing my illness, but I also thank you for disciplining that child, Ridou. I know that Ridou is not rotten to the core yet, and he is with you." , I’m relieved.”
"Yes, yes, a while ago, that kid Rito often boasted in front of me, saying that he was now helping the prosecutor. He looked so proud, not to mention how proud he was."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged woman's face was filled with a smile unconsciously.
Although she always says she looks down on Choi Il Doo, which parent in the world wouldn't be happy to see their child on the right track?
But smiling, the middle-aged woman suddenly changed the subject:
"However, Prosecutor Jin, I haven't seen Rito recently. Even her grandma was discharged from the hospital, and this kid didn't come to see her. I don't have his phone number. Do you know where this kid is now?"
"Yes, Prosecutor Jin, if you can find Il Doo, go home with him when you have time. I will make kimchi pancakes for you. Il Doo liked to eat the food I cooked the most when he was a child..."
Looking at grandma's smiling expression.
Gu Ji didn't know how to answer for a while.
Jiang Youzhen on the side seemed to see what he was thinking. He pursed his lips and smiled, stroking grandma's shoulder and said, "Grandma, MERS has just ended. Prosecutor Jin has been busy recently. Let's do it this way. After this period of work is over, I will take the How about he come to your house to visit you?"
"Ouch! I'm such an old fool. Why did I forget you, Director Jiang? Well, welcome. You must come when the time comes!"
"Don't worry, grandma!"
After seeing the two of them off, Jiang Youzhen returned to Gu Ji.
The black short-heeled shoes under his feet made a "kick-kick-kick" sound when he stepped on the tiles, which also brought Gu Ji back to reality.
"Prosecutor Jin, is something wrong with you?"
"Are you investigating me?"
Gu Ji's eyes turned cold.
Jiang Youzhen quickly changed his words, "I'm just worried about you. You have been frequently harassed by the Mountain Dog Gang before, so I sent security to protect you secretly. This is not stalking."
"Something happened."
"Is it related to the military and Cheong Wa Dae?"
Jiang Youzhen's words made Gu Ji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
It seems that the children of chaebol families are not good at it. They are not only good at business, but also have a deep understanding of politics.
In fact, South Korea’s capital model.
It is destined that large chaebols must participate in state power. Many chaebols will use their children to marry officials to ensure the stability of their business empires. Among them, the chaebols most like independent prosecutors like Gu Ji.
"Prosecutor Kim, if you want revenge, I might be able to help."
"No need to help, but I need to ask some questions."
Gu Ji declined Jiang Youzhen's kindness.
He was just about to take the elevator downstairs.
They met Lin Renna and Jiang Songyuan in the elevator.
After not seeing each other for a few days, the relationship between the two seemed to have changed.
Jiang Songyuan looked at his sister Jiang Youzhen excitedly, "Sister, after this incident, I have decided that I will develop into a reporter in the future, and I will become the most famous reporter in South Korea!"
"You want to be a reporter? Dad won't agree. Besides, the family business also needs you."
Jiang Youzhen's relationship with his younger brother should be very good. Although their words are all about education, they are a bit more doting.
"No, dad usually only praises you and eldest brother, and ignores me."
As Jiang Songyuan spoke, he turned to look at Gu Ji, his eyes full of admiration, "I have decided to become a person like Prosecutor Jin in the future, specializing in investigating and tracking crisis incidents. Wherever there is a crisis, I will go and expose it!"
ha! ?
Gu Ji was immediately stunned by his words.
Good guy, Jiang Songyuan chose to go to Ethiopia to film the PM massacre, wasn’t it just because of me?
Is this the so-called butterfly effect?
"Let's talk about this later."
Jiang Youzhen glared at his younger brother, "Prosecutor Jin, where are you going, I'll take you there."
"Blue House."
ten minutes later.
Gu Ji was sitting in the back seat of Jiang Youzhen's car, driving on the way to the Blue House.
After the MERS incident, there were obviously a lot more people and traffic on the streets. The first thing everyone did was to take off the masks on their faces, which seemed to symbolize taking off the panic caused by the virus and the effects of control. of bondage.
After arriving at Blue House.
Gu Ji called Li Xuanzhen directly.
Unexpectedly, this time, Li Xuanzhen refused to meet him.
"Jin Jijiu, I know what you want to do, but as a prosecutor, you should understand the law. We cannot touch the U.S. military. However, the president has used the information you provided to win the power of the U.S.-South Korean joint military. Ukraine The virus project researched by the Shan Laboratory has also been shut down. I have asked the Supreme Prosecutor's Office to stop this case, so you should not continue investigating it in the future."
"hehe……"
Gu Ji subconsciously laughed and hung up the phone.
Because he no longer wanted to hear a word Li Xuanzhen said.
It seems that for these senior officials.
When we use you, you are a valuable talent;
But once you hinder their interests, they will be treated as waste paper and thrown away.
No one will ever know about Choi Il Dou’s death.
In other words, during the entire MERS incident, how many unknown people like "Cui Il Dou" died in dirty and dark corners instead of dying in the fight against the virus.
Gu Ji seemed to understand the last wall of the virus.
Interests and compromises.
[Hidden goal: The search for the "wall" of the South Korean virus crisis is completed! 】
[Level settlement statistics are in progress...]
"Prosecutor Jin, have you not eaten yet? How about we find a restaurant first?" Jiang Youzhen was very good at observing words and expressions. From the change in Gu Ji's face, he could tell that he had been dug up by someone from the Blue House.
"Let's go."
Gu Ji knew in his heart that the level would be over soon, and he didn't bother to worry about it anymore, so he just said it casually.
He's not Korean anyway, so why does he care so much?
Just complete the level tasks assigned by the game and you'll be fine.
While Jiang Youzhen asked the driver to turn around, the settlement began, and Gu Ji's vision was gradually covered with a red filter.
And at the moment when his consciousness was about to leave his body.
Through the window, Gu Ji suddenly spotted a suspicious black modern off-road vehicle. The next second, the window slowly lowered, revealing a mysterious man wearing a black mask! !
