Chapter 594 Public Health Emergencies of International Concern
"Xima, are you saying they are fake?"
"Do you think a regular official would have this attitude?"
Faced with Catherine's question, Gu Ji just explained softly.
As expected.
Not long after the two finished talking, a scream suddenly came from next door, followed by a series of sounds of things falling.
Raja put down his phone and frowned, "The police force in Tamil District is seriously insufficient now. They said it would take at least half an hour to arrive!"
"Half an hour, the daylily is cold!"
Gu Ji muttered coldly, picked up the shovel and came to the door, and at the same time signaled him with his eyes to find a shooting point and be on guard with a gun.
About ten minutes later.
Through the window of the living room on the first floor, Catherine noticed that the door next door was opened again.
The armed men were holding boxes, which were either filled with jewelry or food.
One of them had a lot of blood on his chemical protective suit.
It can be imagined what kind of beating and torture the owner of this house suffered.
Just when she thought that the militants would leave after robbing something.
Unexpectedly, the militant covered in blood walked to Raja's house and banged on the door.
"I know there are people inside. Your neighbors have already told you to open the door and accept the inspection immediately, otherwise I will not be polite!"
"Well..."
Catherine covered her mouth and looked at Gu Ji with a panic, as if asking what to do now.
Gu Ji just narrowed his eyes.
He signaled her to stay where she was and not move, and at the same time gave Raja's wife a look.
Standing at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, he scolded: "This is the home of Captain Raja of the Metropolitan Police Security Force. We have not received any inspection information. You should leave!"
"Is this family a policeman?"
"Damn..."
After a few quarrels were heard outside the door, there was no response.
Just when several people thought that these militants were scared away by Raja's identity.
Suddenly.
With a loud bang, the door shook violently, and even the entire door frame trembled.
They were smashing the door!!
For this kind of ordinary wooden door lock, it could not withstand such violent destruction, so that before Raja and his men could recover from their shock, the door opened with a "click"!
A black shadow rushed in instantly.
"Dang!"
In a flash, Gu Ji's eyes turned cold, and he swung his arms with full force, and the sharp blade of the shovel slashed on the black shadow's calf.
Before the black shadow could scream.
At the moment he fell forward in pain, Gu Ji turned his strength and stabbed diagonally again.
The cold light came in an instant and hit the black shadow in the face.
You can even hear the crisp sound of a broken nose bone. At the moment he fell to the ground, Gu Ji let go of his grip and rushed to the side with his men, "Do it!!"
"Bang! Bang!"
Everything changed too quickly, almost in just one or two seconds.
Fortunately, Raja reacted in time.
The moment he heard the order, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot from the corner of the stairs at the door, just forcing back the accomplices who were about to rush in from behind!
Roll to the wall.
Gu Ji didn't care whether the black shadow in his arms was unconscious.
He clamped his legs together, locked his lower body, and his left hand went around his neck to control the rifle handguard on his chest. The other hand quickly reached to his waist and pulled out the pistol.
His fingers sensed that the rear of the slide was loaded, and he opened the safety and pressed it against his temple.
"Don't move the person outside the door! Otherwise, he will die immediately!"
"Damn it! Lagu was caught!"
"Don't shoot!!"
At this time, several armed men hiding outside the door hurriedly shouted loudly.
Gu Ji took the opportunity to control the black shadow to quickly move away from the door. He used his left arm and elbow to strangle the man completely to suffocation and unconsciousness, then he put away the pistol and snatched the AKS-74U from his chest.
"Let's talk it over. As long as you let them go, we will leave here immediately!"
"Click!"
Gu Ji pulled the bolt to check, then leaned his shoulder to look outside the door, "Who are you?"
"We are officially recruited mercenaries, responsible for checking whether the residents in the city are infected with the virus. Please rest assured that we really have no ill intentions. Let's all put down our guns and talk face to face, okay?"
The voice came from behind a tree outside the house closest to the door.
To show his sincerity, this guy even took off the weapons in his and his companions' hands and displayed them outside, as if he really wanted to negotiate.
He glanced at it twice.
If I remember correctly, a total of four militants got out of the car just now.
Now he knocked down one in the house, and two were responsible for negotiations.
That is to say, there is another one hiding in the dark!
What a calculation!
If Gu Ji and Raja believed the other party's lies and chose to put down their guns and go out to negotiate, they would inevitably be shot and attacked by the hidden Lao Liu.
At that time, they will go from being the active party to being completely passive.
So, without saying anything, Gu Ji pulled the trigger and broke one of the men's wrists. The AKS fell to the ground along with the spurting blood.
"Ah! Ah, my hand!!"
The militant covered his broken arm and lay on the ground screaming, scaring another companion to curse, "Basha! Basha! You, you are fucking crazy, you dare to shoot at official personnel!"
Gu Ji was not in a hurry.
"Your tricks may fool fools, but let the remaining person come out!"
"Damn it..."
Although the militant was extremely angry.
But he did not dare to get angry at all.
If they had just fired directly through the door, four against one, they could have easily broken into the house.
But now.
They had already lost two people, and there were two people on the opposite side with guns.
Two against two, they couldn't gain any advantage, and maybe someone would get hurt.
The most important thing is.
From the beginning to now, the combat capability shown by Gu Ji was too strong, and it was a one-sided crushing.
After half a minute of hesitation.
In the end, the militants chose to surrender.
"Radam, come out!"
With the shouting, the old man who was hiding behind the car on the street in the distance finally showed up, "You should be satisfied now, can you let us go?"
"Throw all your weapons to the side, then come in empty-handed and take the people away!"
"Damn, what if you shoot!"
"You are not qualified to bargain with me!"
Gu Ji's tone was grim, full of oppression.
As if if they didn't do what he asked, they would die in the next second! !
Forced to do so, the two militants had to throw their weapons on the side of the road, and then, under the supervision of him and Raja, they raised their hands, slowly walked into the house, and dragged their unconscious companion out.
Wait until everyone left completely.
Catherine and Raja's wife finally dared to breathe a sigh of relief and took a deep breath.
"Huh, I didn't expect it to turn out like this!"
"Now the door is broken, and the shops outside are closed. How should we fix it!"
"There's no need to fix the door. We have to hurry up and leave!"
Gu Ji walked to the door with a gun, looked around, and observed a few times.
"Ah? Change place again?"
Catherine was stunned.
After all, the two had just moved to Raja's house, and they had to leave before they even had a chance to sit down.
Raja also hurried downstairs at this time.
"Xima is right, we have to leave as soon as possible. This group of people is not an ordinary gangster at first glance. If I guess correctly, they are probably private armed organizations that want to take advantage of this virus disaster to make a lot of money!"
"Oh?"
Seeing that Gu Ji was a little curious, Raja explained a few words.
It turns out that Nepal has not been completely peaceful since the end of the civil war in 2006.
In addition to the gangs hiding in the dark side of the town, there are also some private armed organizations. Some of them are teams that broke away from the rebels, and some are from abroad.
For example, the Indian anti-government armed forces: the Naxal armed guerrillas, fled to Nepal after being defeated by the Indian army.
And now.
Because of the chaos in the capital caused by the virus, order is about to collapse.
These monsters began to emerge.
"But it's so late, where can we go?"
"We can only go to your parents' house to take shelter first!"
Raja hesitated for a moment and looked at Gu Ji and Catherine, "It's just that my wife's house is relatively small, and her brother also lives there, so you may have to sleep on the floor!"
"It's okay, in this situation, it's good to have a place to live!"
Catherine clasped her hands together and thanked the two.
"Let's go!"
Gu Ji observed for a moment, confirmed that the block was safe, and immediately began to move supplies.
Fortunately, the things that were moved in before had not been sorted out, which was convenient for them to transport them to the car.
In less than ten minutes.
Everyone evacuated the house.
Raja's wife's home is on the edge of the Tamil District, which means they have to cross the most prosperous commercial district in the city center.
At night.
Every household turned off the lights, but the town was not quiet.
There were strange noises everywhere, some people smashed things, some people cursed each other, and some people groaned in pain, as if crocheting the background music of a horror movie.
Although it can't be compared with the scene of the collapse of order and complete chaos in the Mexican drug war.
But the current horror level in Nepal is no worse than the former.
Raja was driving on the road and had encountered two waves of people deliberately chasing up, cursing and swinging stones to hit the car.
Gu Ji couldn't even tell.
Are they gangsters who want to rob on the road, or lunatics infected by the berserk virus?
This is the most terrifying part of the Nepal checkpoint.
Because as long as the virus cannot be handled.
It won't be long before this city will become like a scene in a zombie movie, no, it will even be more terrifying than the movie!
Countless humans infected with the virus destroyed and attacked each other;
Until the end, all lives were dissolved by the high fever and the muscles and internal organs were completely reduced to a dead city.
The scene of corpses all over the city, rivers of blood, and rotten smells.
Gu Jiguang felt unbearable just thinking about it.
Don't think this is exaggerated.
The Black Death in the 14th century killed nearly 50 million people, and the death toll was close to 1/3 of the total population of Europe. It was one of the deadliest public health crises in human history;
The Spanish flu in the early 20th century spread rapidly around the world. In two years, 500 million people were infected and the death toll exceeded 50 million.
So, in comparison.
What is a small Nepal?
I came to the door of Raja's wife.
It was also a single-family courtyard. Perhaps this was related to the frequent earthquakes and few high-rise buildings in Nepal.
Two houses, one for parents and the other for Raja's wife's younger brother.
Gu Ji noticed that none of his family wore masks when facing strangers, and even his younger brother wanted to hug Raja directly.
This can be seen from this.
How difficult it is to prevent and control infectious diseases in Nepal.
Citizens’ basic medical knowledge is really poor.
Catherine hurriedly reminded a few people, and then she and Gu Ji were arranged in the utility room next to them where farm equipment and goods were stored.
"Sima, the bed is already made!"
In the utility room, Catherine used an alcohol spray bottle to completely disinfect their mats.
Gu Ji then took off his mask and lay on the mat two meters away from her.
She looked at him holding the phone with a sad face and saying nothing.
Catherine couldn't help but worry a little: "Sima, do you think this epidemic can be successfully solved?"
"Yes, as long as the official orders a lockdown tomorrow, there is still hope."
Gu Ji turned off the phone screen.
He just wanted to click on the web page and browse the domestic news.
After all, the driver who lost control and crashed into the bar door was very similar to the symptoms of these crazy infected people in Nepal.
If the two are really the same disease.
Then there will probably be infected people in the country now.
And the scariest thing is...
He and Li Yanan both had contact with the driver who caused the accident!
That's right.
Gu Ji's body in the real world is very likely to face the risk of being infected by a virulent virus!
This is also the reason why he is so eager to solve this crisis and makes the matter so big.
On the one hand, he is worried that his reality will be damaged;
On the other hand, even if there is no infection, once the news is received in China and disease control is involved, he and Li Yanan, as the first close contacts, will inevitably be taken away by the authorities for medical isolation and observation.
But he hasn't succeeded yet.
If the authorities came to see him at this time and found him in a coma, wouldn't it be completely embarrassing?
Until now.
Gu has never tried to figure out the consequences of being woken up from the real world when his brain enters the game world to break through levels.
"Don't turn me into a fool or a vegetable..."
Since Nepal’s official network has not been opened yet, Gu Ji can’t find anything now.
With such worries and distracting thoughts, his consciousness could no longer bear the physical and mental exhaustion of the whole day, and he slowly closed his eyes.
"Sima! Wake up! Wake up quickly!!"
"What's wrong?"
Early in the morning, Gu Ji was woken up from his sleep by Catherine.
Seeing the excited expression on the other party's face, he sat up from the mattress suddenly, knowing that something big must have happened.
as expected.
Catherine said she had just received a call from the French teacher in the morning. The World Health Organization had noticed the incident and had communicated with the Ministry of Health of Nepal last night.
According to the International Health Regulations and the Emergency Response Framework, it was determined that this was a public health emergency of international concern.
"Currently, according to data released by Nepali officials to the WHO, rough statistics show that the number of infected people in Kathmandu has exceeded 1,200!"
"so much?"
"Moreover, just now, Xia Guo also reported suspected cases to the WHO, infected people: 2 people!!"
