Chapter 48 Chapter 46 Outbreak

OK, dear.he groaned.He had to see a doctor tomorrow morning. Instead of getting better, his condition got worse.Although he takes two painkillers every four hours, he still suffers from headaches.It would be nice to get some sleep, but I couldn't sleep at all.He was exhausted and felt as if he was floating around.He got up and wanted to go to the bathroom, but it took him a long time.His wife wanted to help him, but he refused, because this is not what a man should do.On the other hand, she was right that he did need to see a doctor.He thought that if he had gone yesterday, he might be better now.

This is not difficult for Planbo.The audiovisual room is equivalent to a considerable library, and it is easy to look up things.On the fifth shelf were three boxes of high-fidelity videotapes.Plumbow took the case down, removed the video tape, put the blank tape in its place, and put the three rolls of tape in the briefcase.Twenty minutes later, when he returned home, he played the tape of his first interview, and it turned out to be intact.They must be taken to a safe place. Prombaugh then spent an hour drafting a three-minute op-ed for tomorrow night's evening news; it was a commentary on Wren's presidential campaign.When he was satisfied, he saved it on a floppy disk, which he would use later when making teleprompter content.Then he wrote another review paper of about the same length.Prombeau spent even longer on this piece; if it was the last of his journalistic career, it should have been taken care of.When he was finally satisfied, he printed it out and put the manuscript in his briefcase along with the video.This time he didn't file.

I think they've ended the exercise.said the Master Chief. The footage sent back by the Predator unmanned reconnaissance drone showed that the roof of the tank turret was open, and the soldiers on it were clearly visible.The maneuvers were quite successful for the newly formed unit of the United Islamic Republic, which even now is marching in orderly formation. That's odd, said the Master Chief in surprise. What's wrong?Major Sabah asked. Hold on to me, sir.He stood up, went to the cabinet in the corner and took out a map. There was no way.You see, sir.He opened the map and compared it with the coordinates on the screen. The unmanned reconnaissance drone has a global satellite positioning system and can automatically tell its location. He tapped on the right half of the map, see?

Sabah compared to the map and the screen.At this point, there appears to be a path on the screen.This is not difficult to explain, a column of a hundred chariots can force a way on any ground, and this has happened before in this area. But there had never been a single road there before, and the tanks had passed through the area only a few hours earlier. It's a change, Major.Iraqi troops have always been limited by road conditions. Sabah nodded.The Iraqi army is no stranger to the desert, and they should be used to operating there, but they often get lost in the desert, so in the desert storm, it eventually led to self-destruction due to its overreliance on road operations.

But now this situation has changed. Do you think they have GPS too?asked the Master Chief. They're not going to be that stupid forever, are they? Adler is now in Taipei. Taiwan may be small, maybe apart from its economic prosperity, it is just an insignificant player in the international community, not because it does nothing, but because there is a relatively backward but large country to the west of it, but it does have a Elected governments, this is what the international community, especially democratic countries, should face up to. However, China established the country with the barrel of a gun and massacred millions of its own people. The Great Leap Forward Movement caused a major tragedy, while the Mingfang Movement before the Cultural Revolution used students with high revolutionary enthusiasm to draw out dissidents, and then further eradicated them. The enthusiasm of the students in "Mao Quotations" was unprecedented, but it almost destroyed Chinese culture.

Another student revolutionary movement against the established political system was crushed by chariots and machine guns in full view around the globe. Although all these actions are heinous, the world still dare not comment on the oppression of Taiwan by the People's Republic of China. This is the political reality, Adler thinks, even his own country declares a one-China policy, although the tacit additional clause is that China will not attack Taiwan. In case China does invade Taiwan by force, the United States may intervene; Or maybe not. We have missile fragments that hit the wing, which are undoubtedly made by the CCP. The Taiwan Defense Minister said that your country’s technical personnel can come to investigate and test to confirm the facts.

Thanks, I will discuss this with my administration. They allowed direct flights from Beijing to Taipei, made no private protests against the dispatch of the aircraft carrier, and claimed no responsibility for the plane accident.I admit I can't fathom their intentions.said the foreign minister. I am glad that they have indicated that they are only interested in restoring stability in the region. They said such things after deliberately creating confusion, said the Minister of Defense, they are really good people. This has done a great deal of harm to our economy.Foreign investors are nervous, and the outflow of money makes us uncomfortable.Do you think this was intentionally planned by them?

Minister, if that's the case, why are they asking me to fly straight here? Obviously they harbor evil intentions.The Foreign Minister replied. If so, what is their purpose?Adler wanted to know too.Really, they are all Chinese, maybe they can understand. We understand that it is safe here, but foreign investors do not understand this.However, the situation is not entirely rosy, we are like living in a castle, and the lions are watching outside the moat.It knows that it can't jump the moat, but it doesn't give up.I hope you understand our concern. I understand, the Minister, the Secretary of State said to him, if the Chinese Communist Party is willing to keep a low profile, can you do the same?Even if they can't speculate on the CCP's intentions, they may be able to ease tensions.

We agree in principle, and we will study on how to do it specifically.We are very reasonable. It was this short sentence that was all that was needed for the whole trip.adler now has to fly back to beijing to deliver the message and win them over Where does it hurt? He described his symptoms.His family doctor is an old friend, and they often play golf together. Well, you have a fever, one hundred and three degrees Fahrenheit, is a little on the high side.The blood pressure is one hundred and sixty-five, which is a bit low.your complexion is bad I know, I feel nauseous. You are sick, but nothing will happen.Possibly caught the flu in some tavern, and I keep telling you to drink less, or it will only make things worse.Did you start feeling sick last Friday?

Thursday night, maybe Friday morning. Going to play again? Because I was not feeling well, I only scored 80 points.he admitted. You are already in your fifties, don't think that you can still be alive and well after indulging in pleasure, you should take a complete rest now, drink more water and less alcohol.Continue to take painkillers. Out of prescription? The doctor shook his head.Antibiotics are useless against infectious viruses, your immune system will naturally deal with them.But now that you're here, I'd like to do a blood test for you, you haven't had your cholesterol test yet.I called the nurse in.Did someone drive you home?

Yes, I don't want to drive by myself. Well, rest for a few days.Your company can get by without you, and when you recover we'll go play golf again. Thank you very much.He already felt better.Every patient has this psychological feeling when the doctor tells you that your life is not in danger. I am looking for you.Planbo said. Well, replied Van Damme, what's the matter?Although Plumbow is no longer on his list of Christmas cards to send, unfortunately, Plumbow still has his dedicated line number. I know what you're thinking. Very well, Planbo.Then I don't have to repeat it. Watch tonight's show, I'll be there at the end. Why? You can see it, Arnie, goodbye. Van Damme hung up, wondering what Plumber meant. I don't know anyone around who has a cold.The auto executive put his shirt back on, and it took him a while to get dressed because he was sore. Viruses are everywhere, the doctor replied, you have the flu. Anything to watch out for? Take it easy, don't go to work, lest you drag the whole company down.Hold on, the weekend will be fine. The National Special Intelligence Assessment Team is meeting at Wrangley.There are piles of new intelligence coming from the Persian Gulf area, and they are sorting it out in the conference room on the sixth floor.The photo of Da Yelan taken by Chavez has been developed and enlarged, and it is hanging on the wall.Maybe someone will try to shoot darts, Chavez thought. That chariot really looked like a toad with tracks.Travez snorted contemptuously as he watched videotape from the Predator drone. These things always scare me.Clark said. Light anti-tank rockets will take them out, Mr. Clark. What's its range, Chavez? Four or five hundred meters. Those rockets can hit two or three kilometers away.Clark pointed out that you think about it. I'm not familiar with these things, Visco said, pointing at the screen, what does that mean? A CIA military analyst replied: This shows that the military power of the United Islamic Republic is stronger than we originally thought. The Army major at the Defense Intelligence Agency shared the same opinion.This is quite impressive to me.There was nothing special about the exercise but they kept the troops organized and no one got lost Do you think they are using GPS by now?asked the military analyst. Anyone who subscribed to Clipper magazine could get that thing, and the last time it was down to four hundred dollars.This way, the major said, they would have better control over their mobile units and artillery fire would be more effective.As long as everything is known, the first shell can hit the target with great accuracy. Can quadruple the performance? It's easy, said the major, that old guy Dayelan now holds a lot of military power, and I think he will let his neighbors know who is the boss in the Middle East. Visco, what do you think?Clark asked. Visko squirmed in his chair.I'm already getting worried, and things are moving faster than expected.If Da Yelan can sit back and relax, then I am even more worried. Ask yourself what kind of a man he is, Kirti said in front of his camera, who has lost five lives and who has yet to see the need for gun control laws.I really don't understand how he could be so callous.Alas, he doesn't care about those heroic bodyguards, but I do.I really don't know how many American lives he will cause?Did he have to wait until he lost his family to understand that?He continued talking to the camera. The car stopped in the driveway, the two operators got out of the car and walked towards the door, one of them knocked on the door. who?asked the hostess of the house in confusion. FBI, Mrs. Smington.He flashed his ID card, may we come in? What's up?asked the sixty-two-year-old widow. If you don't mind, we'd like to ask you a few things. please come in. Thanks.Mrs. Smington, do you know the gentleman who lives next door? You mean Mr Achille? Yes. Not very familiar, sometimes say hello. Do you know he is home now? She turned to look, and then said: His car is not there.Two operators have already discovered this.Achille owned a blue station wagon with Maryland plates, and the police within a two-hundred-mile radius were looking for it. Do you remember when was the last time you saw him? let me see.It was Friday, and there were some other cars parked there, and a truck. OKAn operator took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket.Get moving, get moving, the bird may be out, repeat, the bird may be out. Right in front of the shocked old woman, a helicopter appeared in the air three hundred yards in front of the house, and armed operators slowly descended from it.At the same time, four cars drove over from both sides of the country road and parked on the wide lawn in front of the house.After receiving the operation order, the operators broke in through the front and rear doors at the same time. Half a minute later, the siren sounded.It appears that Achille had installed an alarm in his home.Then a voice came over the intercom. Empty, no one in the house.This is Bates. After the search, there is no one in the house. Let the inspectors come in.Then two vans drove up and parked in the driveway, and the inspectors first took samples of the gravel and lawn on the road surface to compare with the debris left on the car at the Big Foot Nursery. Mrs. Smington, we would like to ask you a few more questions. How about it?Murray asked when he arrived at the FBI command center. Nothing to be happy about.Said the operator sitting in front of the console. damn it.His reaction was not violent, because in fact he didn't have much hope for this operation.The laboratory has collected all kinds of physical evidence.Gravel samples from the tires confirmed which driveway it was from, while grass and dirt found on the fenders and bumpers of the cars proved that the cars had been parked in front of Azil's house; Removal of carpet fibers also suggested the men had visited Achil's house.Now the investigative team has started to track down who is Aqier. Command Center, this is Bates.Bill.Bates, in charge of the Baltimore bureau, had been a supersonic transport gunner before, so now he was leading his men in a dramatic landing from a helicopter. Bill, this is Murray.What do you find? Do you believe?Chief, we found a half-empty box with 762 balls and lots of fuses.There is a small red rug in the living room that we will search carefully.The master bedroom closet was missing some clothes and I daresay it hadn't been here for days.The inspectors have already started work. With forensic experts drawn from the FBI, the Secret Service, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Arms, which specializes in tough problems, its technicians are undoubtedly excellent.Each of them put on gloves and prepared to take the fingerprints on each item so that they could be compared with the fingerprints of the dead terrorists. After a string of speeches targeting conservative votes, President Wren remains on the road in the run-up to congressional elections and flatly rejects proposed changes to gun laws as federal officials investigate the terrorist attack on his daughter.The following is our correspondent Hank.Roberts reports.Donner looked into the camera until the red light went off. I thought his speech today was wonderful.Planbo said. The words I love Lucy must have been written by Carly when her periods were irregular.Downer flipped through the manuscript in his hand and said, it's really interesting, she used to write wonderful speeches for Fowler. Ten seconds left.The director's words came from their headphones. By the way, here's the good news.In the last three seconds, Donna's face turned into a smile. A federal task force is now investigating Friday's death of the president's daughter.Here is Karen.Stapler reported from Washington. You'll love it, Tom.Planbo said.The lights dimmed again, which was better, and he'd have a clear conscience later. VC｜Two-five took off on time, and in order to avoid the bad weather over northern New Mexico, it flew straight north.Van Damme is in the communications bay of the plane, which is filled with a number of important-looking boxes that take up half the space, while a satellite dish is hidden inside the aircraft skin, and its expensive target-finding system can almost lock on to it. All Electronic Communications.Now, it's targeting NBC. The following will be by special correspondent John.Planbo came to make final comments.Tang Na turned his head smartly and said, John, please. Thanks, Tom.I have devoted myself to journalism for many years because it was a dream I had since I was young."I remember I used to own a solid-state radio," he explained, with a smile on his face. "I remember it allowed me to listen to the reports of many great predecessors who worked so hard to get to the bottom of the truth that all of America trusted them." , Their words have drawn pictures in my mind to accompany me to grow up.So I regard it as the sacred mission of journalism to seek the truth and let the people have the right to know. In this industry, no one is perfect.Prombaugh went on. Donner to his left is staring at the teleprompter in bewilderment, the words don't match the scrolling subtitles.He began to realize that although Plumbow had a printed speech in front of him, he was delivering another script he had memorized, just like his predecessors had done in the past. I'm proud to be in this line of work, and I used to believe in it. A few weeks ago, we visited President Wren twice on the same day.There is a reason why the questions asked were a bit different between the first morning taped interview and the second live broadcast.After the first visit, we were called to meet with a man who told us some unfavorable information about the president, but at the time it seemed very fascinating.We didn't figure out the truth then. So we lied, we lied to Chief of Staff Van Damme because we told him the tape was broken, and in doing so, we lied to the President.And worst of all, we lied to society at large.Those straps are in my hands, not damaged at all. This is not illegal, the First Amendment to the Constitution gives us full freedom of the press, because all people are the final judge.But the only thing we can't do is lose the public's trust in us. I am not defending President Ryan.I personally disapprove of many of his policies, and if he were to run for re-election, I probably wouldn't vote for him.But I was involved in lying, and it gave me sleepless nights.Whatever Wren's faults, he was a respectable man and I should not allow my personal prejudices to interfere with my work. So I was wrong on this matter, and I apologize to the President, and I apologize to the community.Perhaps my career as a reporter will come to an end, and if that is the case, I hope that I will do my best to let the public know the truth as I did when I first entered the industry. Good night, this is NBC.Prombeau looked at the camera and breathed a deep sigh of relief. What the hell are you doing? Plumbow stood up, and replied: If you must ask that question, Tom At this moment, the phone on the desk rang, and Plumber decided not to answer it, and he turned to the dressing room.All of this was left to Tang Na to figure out for himself. Two thousand miles away, over Rocky Mountain National Park, Van Damme turned off the machine, removed the strap, and walked down the winding stairs to the presidential cockpit at the front of the plane.Wren is reading the final speech of the day. Jack, I thought you'd be interested in this.The White House chief of staff grinned. There is always a first time for everything, and this time the first time happened in Chicago.She had seen the doctor on Saturday morning, and the diagnosis was still the same: cold, take aspirin, drink water, get plenty of rest.But when she looked in the mirror, she was horrified to see spots appearing on her fair skin.She called her personal doctor, who wasn't there, but the spots couldn't drag her any longer, so she drove straight to the University of Chicago Medical Center, one of the best hospitals in the country.She waited about forty minutes in the emergency room, and when it was her turn she got up and walked to the table, but suddenly passed out in front of the nurse.The hospital took immediate measures.A minute later, two paramedics put her on a stretcher and took her to the treatment area, followed by a nurse with her medical chart. The first person to come to see her was a recent graduate internist who happened to be on duty in the emergency room that day; he loved working here. What's wrong?he asked, while the paramedics began to measure pulse, measure blood pressure, and perform artificial respiration. Here.The nurse handed over a medical chart.The doctor took a rough look. It looks like a cold symptom, but what is it? Heartbeat 120 beats, blood pressure, etc., the nurse measured it again, the blood pressure is 90 and 50?She doesn't look that abnormal. The doctor unbuttoned her blouse, revealing the spots.At this moment, some passages from the textbook flashed clearly in the doctor's mind, and he raised his hand. Everyone stops working.We may be facing a tricky case.I want everyone to put on gloves and a face covering immediately. Body temperature is 104.4 degrees.A nurse backed away from the patient immediately after speaking. It's not a cold, it's severe internal bleeding, and those are bruises.As he spoke, he put on his mask and gloves, and went to fetch Dr. Quinn. A nurse ran out, and the doctor took another look at the chart.It could be a hemorrhagic fever, but it can't be, this is Chicago.He picked up the syringe. Everyone back away, don't get close to my hand.After speaking, he inserted the needle into the patient's vein, and then drew out 5 cc of blood and injected it into the test tube. What happened?asked Dr. Quinn.The resident doctor recounted the symptoms once.After putting the test tube on the table, he asked his question. What do you think, Joe? If this is not America Yes, then it may be hemorrhagic high fever. Has anyone asked where she has been?asked Dr. Quinn. No.the nurse replied. She hasn't had a fit yet.Dr. Quinn took out his surgical scissors and cut off the patient's underwear straps, which still had more bruises on her body.She is very ill.Nurse: Call Dr. Kelan quickly, tell him that an infectious disease has been found here, and ask him to come over immediately.We've got to get her fever down first, get her back to life, and find out what the hell she's been to.
