Abigail was a very light sleeper. She had been like this for half a month and did not dare to fall asleep deeply, so her condition was also very poor.
When she left her temporary residence, she felt her lungs felt better after breathing in the fresh air.
The girl went to the place agreed yesterday to find Dr. Coultman, but found that the man was already busy.
Doesn't he need to sleep?
Seeing Abigail coming, Zhou Jinru waved her closer and asked, "How did you sleep yesterday?"
"not good."
The fourteen-year-old girl sat down next to the man and yawned: "Sir, what are we going to do today?"
"I do have a job for you to do. Mr. David will start arranging for the people in the shanty area to move out. No one can live there and there are huge safety risks. You go and help."
"What about you, sir?"
Zhou Jinru glanced at the growing number of people outside and said seriously: "I want to go back to Gotham. The medicine here to treat the Source Stone disease has run out."
"That's it, okay."
The girl swayed her calves and looked much more relaxed.
…
After exchanging a few words with David, Zhou Jinru returned to Gotham by carriage. He went to the hotel first, but found out that Silver Fox had left first and heard that he had gone to the quarantine area to look for him. He looked helpless. Unexpectedly, they had never met. situation.
Just as Zhou Jinru was about to leave, the hotel concierge stood in front of him and hesitated, as if he had something to say.
"Mr. Cotterman, I..."
"What do you want to ask about Abigail?"
"Well, is she okay?"
"She's in quarantine now, do you know what that means?"
The concierge nodded, then shook his head, his confused look amused Zhou Jinru.
Previously, Abigail deliberately said that it had nothing to do with the concierge, but later the concierge took the risk and asked. The relationship between the two people was quite delicate.
Zhou Jinru deliberately kept a straight face: "Did you know that Abigail is only fourteen years old? Be careful about being taken into the police station as a human trafficker!"
"No, Mr. Cotterman, you are thinking too much! I treat Abigail like a sister!"
"Okay, I understand," Zhou Jinru waved his hand, "If the Sakaz people can successfully return to Gotham, then Abigail will also come back. On the contrary, you should know what I am going to say."
Zhou Jinru took his things, left the hotel, and arrived at Gotham No. 1 Hospital. It turned out that everyone had already prepared his things. He didn't even enter the door and returned to the isolation area with the medicine.
After coming and going, most of the day was gone. On the way back, it was getting late, the wind was blowing hard, and it seemed that the weather was going to change.
He looked at the distant horizon and saw thick black smoke rising. He was startled, screamed inwardly, jumped out of the carriage, and amid the astonishment of the entourage, turned into a golden light and flew away in the sky. .
…
Ten hours ago.
Doyle looked at the neatly arranged steam mechas and rubbed his forehead. The Gotham Council's discussion on the quarantine area suddenly changed. It was most likely related to the dynamics of the Victoria doctor. I heard that he was back to get it today. The first hospital also gave me medicine, and people from all directions wanted to let go.
No, we can't go on like this. That damn Doctor Victoria, I can't move him at all. To be precise, I can't even move the balance of fate rashly.
Provoking Thomas Coatman will attract the silver fox behind him, and then attract the observer. Maybe even the defender will come to intervene, and the layout that has been established for many years will be completely disrupted.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
But the most important part of the leader's plan is to expel the Sakaz people. They cannot stay in Gotham. This is the fundamental purpose.
"I heard a lot of people have been sick in the quarantine area recently, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Congressman."
Doyle stroked the hard shell of the steam mecha with one hand and said calmly: "These reliable guys have disinfection modules, let them go to the isolation area to help."
"Is this...appropriate?"
"We are helping those demons, and they will be happy because Gotham has not abandoned them yet."
…
"Be careful and don't break things when you move them!"
David directed his men to work. It took a lot of effort to persuade some of the compatriots in the shantytown to come out, but a considerable number of people were still unwilling to leave.
It has to be said that Dr. Cotman has a very vicious vision. After walking around, he can see many unsafe factors. If something really happened, it would probably cause huge casualties and losses. The compatriots are already in dire straits. If they suffer again, If you suffer a loss, the days ahead will be very difficult.
"Mr. David, a group of medical staff came from the city and said they would help us with hygiene inspections and disinfection."
"What are you doing here at this time?"
David was doubtful. The day before, he was begging his grandfather to sue his grandmother. A day later, the medical staff came directly to his door?
"Let's go and have a look."
David led a few people to the outskirts of the quarantine area. When he arrived at the garrison, he saw Captain Bart talking to someone.
"You're here just in time, Mr. David. These medical staff are making final preparations. They will help with disinfection."
Bart's words did not dispel David's doubts. He glanced behind him a few times. There were no medical staff, no medical vehicles, and nothing was found.
What do those congressmen want to do?
Boom! Boom!
Just when David was about to ask, the ground suddenly began to tremble, and steam mechas equipped with strange modules came over from a distance one after another.
Seeing these big guys, David's face suddenly turned pale, and he trembled: "What does this mean?! What are you going to do?!"
"Don't get me wrong, this is a civilian steam mecha borrowed from Victoria, and the disinfection module is used to do these tasks."
David, who smelled something unusual, firmly objected: "No! My compatriots have never seen these things! They cannot enter the quarantine area!"
These are all weapons and war machines. Even the civilian versions are very powerful.
The quarantine area is full of unarmed civilians. If the order is wrong, it will be an unimaginable terrible disaster!
"Mr. David, this is an order from the Parliament, signed by Councilor Doyle. Aren't you good friends? You can't even trust him?"
Bart's words did not waver David. He had already known clearly what kind of person Doyle was. He was just a villain who saw nothing but profit.
"no!"
"catch him!"
Seeing that something was wrong, David turned around and ran away. Seven or eight guards nearby swarmed him and knocked him to the ground in an instant.
Bart sneered and said: "The order of the council is not to discuss with you. Who do you think you are, demon guy? Why can't you figure out your position?"
David struggled desperately, but he could only watch those terrifying steam mechas drive past.
"You can't do this! Bart! Why is Gotham treating us like this!! Why!!!"
