"What's not so good news?"
After a good sleep, Fan Meinan's mental state finally improved, he lifted the blanket and said.
"I found out that in the city we are going to, the number of flu patients has increased significantly recently."
"Huh?" Fan Meinan raised his eyebrows, "So... we just happened to catch a flu outbreak? By the way, when does seasonal flu usually come?"
"If I remember correctly, the peak period of seasonal influenza is from December to March to May of next year." Han Lu said.
Fan Meinan looked at Zhang Heng.
"I hope I'm worrying too much." Zhang Heng said without saying anything else.
However, Fan Meinan became vigilant after being reminded, "Well, your worries may not be unreasonable... Based on my understanding of her, if there is nothing very important, she will hardly travel far away, let alone this time. The place we plan to go to happens to be a hospital."
"Wait a minute, you don't mean to say that... this time the flu is related to her, right?" Han Lu looked in disbelief, "Flu is a respiratory disease caused by influenza viruses. It spreads through droplets, It is spread through contact between people and pollutants. This is just a common infection..." She suddenly stopped here, "I'm sorry, I'm still trying to understand your world. Before that, I Nor would I have thought that sleep could also be a means of killing."
"Welcome to this weird world," Fan Meinan said, "Anyway, it's better for us to make some preparations and buy some masks after we get off the plane."
…………
After getting off the plane, the three of them discovered that the actual situation was a little more serious than they imagined.
One-third of the people I met on the road were wearing masks. In addition, the pharmacies were sold out of isatis root and vitamin C. Although there is not enough clinical data to prove that these two things can prevent colds, most of them People still think that we should grab it first and then talk about it.
The three of them went to four pharmacies to buy the last two masks on the shelf, and the price was increased tenfold. The aunt who was busy shopping and stocking up had to lose under Han Lu's money offensive, and she was resentful. Rush to the next battlefield quickly.
Fortunately, Zhang Heng had his own mask, and the three of them were able to get the equipment together.
"You are right," Fan Meinan said, "This flu is a bit unusual. If nothing else happens, the source of the problem is probably in that hospital."
"We just need to find your sister this time and get the solution to [Death Dream] from her. It's best not to be distracted by other irrelevant things." Zhang Heng said.
"Received." Fan Meinan said.
Because the other party arrived in the city an hour and a half earlier than them, the three of them had no extra time to rest and rushed to the target hospital immediately after buying the masks.
The peak influenza season is also the busiest time for hospitals every year.
In order to cope with the surge in patients, many doctors have to work continuously, and this year's situation is quite special. Because the working hours are extended, they do not get enough rest, and the immunity of medical staff is also declining, especially when they have to face many infections every day. Source, many doctors and nurses also fell.
This has also made the hospital's manpower increasingly stretched, and the scene in the hospital lobby every day is comparable to a large-scale Spring Festival travel scene.
There were parents with their children, young people with the elderly, and some young couples cuddling together. The corridor was filled with moving heads and the smell of disinfectant, and from time to time, the sound of crying children could be heard.
"It's not easy to find someone in such an environment." Han Lu said, "What does your sister look like? Can you give me some physical description?"
"Appearance descriptions are meaningless," Fan Meinan said. "As long as she puts plasticine on her face, she can make a face for herself. This is why the three major guilds wanted her everywhere before, but no one could. The reason why she was caught.”
"Then it seems we can only implement plan B." Zhang Heng said.
"Uh, I didn't know we had plan B... what is it?" Fan Meinan asked, having to put her small body as close to Zhang Heng as possible, because only in this way can she prevent people from being squeezed here and there. .
"You said your sister came here to find something. She also did a lot of research to find this hospital."
"Yes, I saw her notes and the map. She excluded some places, compared some marks, and finally circled this place. She seemed to be looking for something or someone."
"In other words, we can find her as long as we find what she is looking for before she does." Zhang Heng said.
"Ah... Theoretically, that's true, but didn't you say before that we don't want to create unnecessary complications?"
"Like I said, plans have changed now."
"Okay, let's give it a try." Fan Meinan shrugged.
"Sorry, I don't understand...if we don't find your sister, what are we looking for now?" Han Lu frowned.
"Assuming that this widespread flu is related to my sister, at present, this is also a high probability. As long as we find the source of the spread of the flu, there is a high possibility that we can follow the clues and find my sister. " Fan Meinan explained.
"I can understand that part, I mean what exactly is the source you're talking about?"
"It could be anything, maybe a book, maybe a piece of expired cheese, a plant that makes you sneeze, even a rag, I don't know... but the good news is that my sister probably doesn't know either What exactly is that thing? It’s like a scavenger hunt to see which side moves faster, but of course she has done more homework than us and left an hour and a half earlier than us.”
"Try the first person infected with influenza during this period." Zhang Heng said, "Even if he is not the source, he must have been in contact with the source."
"That's true, but how do you determine who is the first person to be infected? After all, people come to the hospital every day to get medicine for the flu."
"We can narrow the scope. Since your sister has set her target at this hospital, it means that there is a high probability that he is still in the hospital. I can hack into the LAN of this hospital, check the hospitalization records, and find out why he is suffering from influenza. Who are the people who have been hospitalized and have not been discharged yet?" Zhang Heng said.
"Ha, I haven't seen you during the winter vacation. Have you expanded your skill library again?" Fan Meinan said in surprise, "Are you some kind of genius that only happens once in a century? Why can't I see it all the time?"
"Now that you have the time to complain about me, you might as well think carefully about what actions your sister would take in this situation and whether we missed anything."
