Simulation Game: Crisis Management

Chapter 572 - 260: Virus Company

"Hoo—hah..."

Gu Ji suddenly opened his eyes, hearing someone calling his name beside him.

As he looked up, he saw a nurse in a light pink uniform standing in front of him. It was Xizhen, the nurse responsible for guiding them to the respiratory department at the triage desk.

I’ve respawned after death!

He instinctively glanced at the top right corner, seeing the red heart had turned into two.

"Aigoo..."

Just then, a commotion erupted behind him.

Before the other person could finish speaking, Gu Ji quickly covered his mouth and nose, dodging forward to avoid the grasp from behind, successfully distancing himself from the white-haired uncle.

"Ah, shi—!"

The white-haired uncle missed his grasp and turned back, pointing at Gu Ji and cursing loudly.

[The items and privileges you’ve brought have been delivered...]

[The crisis begins!]

[Please choose your initial reward!]

[Language Proficiency (Large)] or [Anthrax Antibody (Special)]

Without a doubt, Gu Ji chose the first option.

But he finally understood why this historical mark appeared in the game level.

Putting aside the factor of Wushan Base.

The cause of death in the last level was that male nurse who appeared in the middle of the night and injected him with a high concentration of anthrax bacilli!

Gu Ji did not die immediately on the spot.

Instead, he died from repeated torment of pain and coma.

The culprit speaks for itself.

Only Shansang had the motive to eliminate him.

"It seems the honest suggestion, the South Korean Government simply won’t listen, so don’t blame me for breaking the rules!"

After experiencing the powerlessness of the last level, Gu Ji saw through the nature of the South Korean Government and financial magnates.

So he couldn’t follow the same path of cruise, flood, and those levels.

"Seoul Central District Prosecutors Office, immediately instruct all medical staff to take protective measures and shut down the emergency room."

Gu Ji didn’t bother talking nonsense with the white-haired uncle and his family, directly showing his credentials.

Xizhen, having never seen such a scene, immediately rushed back to the triage desk and picked up the phone to notify the higher-ups.

Meanwhile, Gu Ji began contacting the CDC, "This is Jin Zhijiu from the Public Security Department, I’m investigating a case involving weapon-grade anthrax leakage. Currently, a highly suspicious patient has been found at Seoul Shansang Hospital, requesting CDC to immediately deploy personnel to lock down the hospital and conduct disinfection and extermination."

"I, I will immediately request my superiors!"

Over the phone, the CDC operator’s tone drastically changed upon hearing the words "Public Security Department."

Afterward, Gu Ji called the Seoul Central Police Station in the same manner.

Exactly.

Since Shansang could fabricate facts using an "anthrax attack" to incite public opinion, why couldn’t he use this reason to mobilize the medical system and law enforcement agencies?

After all, it’s already a fact that the US military secretly researched weapon-grade anthrax in South Korea.

At this time, Li Minfu, bald and wearing a white coat, hurriedly ran to Gu Ji’s side with the nurse, proactively extending his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Jin, I’m Li Minfu, the vice president on duty. Closing the emergency room isn’t a small matter. Could you tell me if something particularly serious has occurred?"

"I suspect a terrorist attack, someone is using weapon-grade anthrax powder!"

"What!? Quickly, masks!"

Li Minfu’s face turned deathly pale upon hearing this, immediately grabbing the mask from the nurse’s hand, "Get one for Mr. Jin too, and also notify the broadcast room and security personnel to close the emergency room immediately."

Looking at the other person’s cowardly behavior, Gu Ji nearly found it amusing.

The creation of two completely different outcomes is primarily due to two reasons:

First, anthrax is a bacterium, with a short incubation period and relatively low transmission, making it easier to control compared to viruses;

Unlike respiratory infectious diseases like MERS and SARS, which have high infection rates and mutation risks, requiring close contact tracing and long-term hospital lockdowns;

Second, people fear death;

Antrax plus terrorist attack makes people easily think of biochemical weapons, and compared to the income loss from closing the emergency room, Li Minfu naturally values his own life more.

"All emergency room staff and patients, please take note. Due to an emergency, we have decided to temporarily close the emergency room, suspending all personnel entries and exits. Please do not panic, remain in place, and cooperate with hospital arrangements..."

Presumably, Li Minfu’s orders had been conveyed.

The speakers mounted on the ceiling of the entire emergency room building suddenly began broadcasting an emergency announcement.

Patients who had never encountered such an event before immediately panicked.

"What’s going on?"

"I haven’t even seen the doctor, and now it’s suddenly shut down!"

"Oh dear, my forehead is still bleeding, can’t someone at least stop the bleeding for me first!"

"Please, everyone, try to understand we’re handling an emergency situation. Please cooperate with the hospital arrangements!"

...

Watching the patients arguing with the medical staff, Li Minfu kept wiping sweat from his forehead and cautiously asked Gu Ji.

"Mr. Jin, does this arrangement work? How long do we need to keep it closed? Is the suspect still in the hospital, and will he injure others indiscriminately?"

"I’ve already notified the CDC and police, they’ll arrive soon. Ensure patients are spread out to rest and not gathered together, and distribute masks to them."

"Alright, alright, I’ll do exactly as you say!"

Seeing Gu Ji’s gaze turning gloomy, Li Minfu was frightened and did not dare to defy any of his orders.

Soon, the hospital security team assembled at the emergency room entrance, taking up stainless steel posts and ribbons to begin cordoning off the area.

"Look!"

"The hospital is really closing the emergency room!"

Seeing the hospital truly about to close, patients in the emergency room began to panic, pressing against each other, pushing and shoving to reach the main door and find an exit to safety. Some showed fear on their faces, while others anxiously looked around the crowd, seemingly at a loss for where to go.
