Following the direction Elder Miao pointed to, Xiao Lin saw Lao Li and about ten others gathered far away, looking over here but not daring to approach. About ten meters away from where Lao Li and his group stood, four young strong men faced them, presumably guarding those people.
"Elder Miao, is it just them? With so many virus carriers, is Xiao Jiu handling it all alone?" From outbreak to death took merely three to four days this time, this new mutated virus spread wider compared to the HTC4 outbreak years ago, with a startlingly short incubation period and rapid onset rate.
Elder Miao's eyes carried countless emotions as he puffed on his pipe, then lightly uttered two words.
"Yes, if not for Xiao Jiu, there'd be no doctors left!"
After a resolute silence, Xiao Lin walked toward the crowd, followed by his driver carrying a medical kit. Without confirming the transmission method of the mutated virus, any impulsive action was suicide.
