Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 447: Possibly Related to the Heavy Rain
Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Possibly Related to the Heavy Rain
Zhang Tiezhu felt that she was probably worried about not being able to find it later.
"Hmm, okay!"
She didn’t say much else, probably just felt uncomfortable.
After that was settled, she and Song Yi went to the laboratory.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jhiang Xingzhi also went to the space; both Song Yi and Ye Mianmian knew her secret.
Zhang Tiezhu wasn’t very cunning, very easy to deceive.
It was only when they arrived that they realized everyone else had come over as well.
Clearly, they had been discussing for a long time.
"Song Yi, Jhiang Yuan, come over here and sit~"
Camp Commander Xie called out, and there were a few others he didn’t recognize beside him.
They all looked like soldiers, probably their internal members.
The others didn’t get up but nodded in acknowledgement as a form of greeting.
The two of them sat down and listened to their continued planning.
"The classification work has already started, and it is expected to take about three days to complete.
After that, we will need to gather everyone."
Camp Commander Xie said so, and Jhiang Yuan understood.
It was probably the proposal mentioned before, to separate those with bugs.
And also, those who are unwilling to be inspected can be grouped together with them, so there won’t be any worries about those people.
"We can’t be careless. Some are about to mature, and if they stubbornly refuse to speak, we’ll have to think of some special measures."
The speaker was an unfamiliar face she had not seen before, but seemed to have a lot of influence.
"Actually, it’s not necessary to go that far, just tell everyone directly.
In that situation, it could harm others.
Tell them that if anything goes wrong, they’ll all be dealt with.
Of course, there will be some who are unwilling.
Moreover, the relief base here is free of charge.
They’re not fools; they’ll make their own choices."
Jiang Yuan’s words clearly hit the mark.
Everyone started to consider the feasibility of implementation, and after a moment, Camp Commander Xie and a few others nodded in agreement.
"Right, about the commonality among those people we mentioned before.
I also asked, did all our own people take a vacation during the extreme heat?"
"What?"
This time, even Jhiang Yuan was surprised.
"Do you still remember the extremely hot days last year?
At first, it wasn’t very severe, and people could still go out.
But when it got more serious, it suddenly cooled down and rained.
They took their vacations during those two days."
In the military, vacations aren’t taken collectively.
They are only allowed for one or two people, provided that most of the unit is present.
So, everyone’s time off needed to be staggered.
For this incident, Camp Commander Xie investigated the detailed records of all the personnel over the past three years.
And that led him to a bit of a discovery.
"Are you suggesting that there was something wrong with the rain that day?"
Jhiang Yuan posed her question, feeling quite astonished at the time.
"Yes, they all went out on that same day.
The places they visited and the incidents they encountered were all different.
The only thing in common was that they were exposed to the rain that day."
"I remember now, the rain that day started off light, but then got very heavy.
At the time, Kaiyang also went out to shop and eat.
We didn’t know each other then, but he was showing off his gourmet finds in the group chat, with quite a few people @ing him, asking him to bring some back for them!"
This issue was somewhat memorable for Song Yi.
Back then, Zhang Kaiyang was quite an active figure in Lushan Garden.
Especially the aquatic group, they were quite active.
"If that’s the case, the rain that day was too abnormal."
"Yes, I still remember, it started pouring down heavily that day, then it turned into a downpour, and eventually it froze, becoming extremely cold."
Jhiang Yuan recalled the previous situation, her emotions fluctuating as she also tried hard to remember the details of that day.
Hearing her recount, Song Yi started to add to her account.
"At that time, we were in West City.
During the intense heat, larger green bean flies and long-legged mosquitoes started to appear.
Later when it rained, all those insects died.
Or they got wet from the rain and stuck to the windows.
At that time, we didn’t clean them up.
I wonder if these things are somehow related to the current insect outbreak?"
Insects, they might be connected, you know~
Jiang Yuan thought swiftly, as if catching something but not being able to fully understand it.
"Could it be that those flying insects laid their eggs on them.
Animals are much more perceptive to weather than humans.
It’s very possible that sensing the crisis, they began to lay eggs en masse."
His analysis made the people below him feel it was incredible.
"If that’s the case, then these insects have been inside for a very long time.
Not only that, but they also grew out little by little.
They didn’t burrow in directly?"
As Song Yi summarized, it left people even more astonished.
"I’m not clear on that, later, I’ll organize this matter.
I’ll discuss it with researchers from other areas, then we’ll see."
"Uh-huh, exactly, it might not be true, there’s no need to overthink it."
They comforted each other a bit and casually discussed what to do next.
Then, they parted ways.
On the way, the two of them didn’t talk much, instead, they felt quite emotional.
"Song Yi, if it really was those green bean flies and long-legged mosquitoes.
We all are in danger, I remember you mentioned the issue with the rainforest hosts."
"Yeah!
That’s right, we were cautious at that time, don’t worry too much about it.
Just be vigilant, as long as we detect it early, there won’t be a big problem."
He offered a few words of comfort, as that was all they could do under the circumstances.
"Come with me later, let’s take a shower."
The moment she finished speaking, the other person stopped in his tracks.
His eyes filled with a mix of disbelief and excitement, "What did you say?"
Seeing his reaction, Jhiang Yuan immediately understood and punched him.
"What are you thinking? I’m taking you to shower, to check.
Don’t be like Kaiyang, thinking it’s just dirt on your body."
"Ah, I thought I could take a beauty home."
Song Yi feigned a sigh, and Jhiang Yuan gave him a shove.
He caught her hand, grinning from ear to ear.
"Don’t be mad, I just can’t help thinking about it, I’m obsessed."
At his words, she rolled her eyes dramatically.
"All day long, what on earth is going on in that brain of yours, let’s get moving~"
"Alright, alright!"
The two hurried off toward the residential area, now that Zhang Kaiyang and Fan Qing were gone.
They had to go back and check on Ye Mianmian, knowing that she likely wasn’t in any danger, but they still needed to ask.
However, what they didn’t expect was to find the two of them waiting at the door.
"Mianmian, what happened?"
