Chapter 268 Find the Infected
Chapter 268 Find the Infected
They shared out the work. Elyse registered an account and posted it on the Internet, indicating that she
had a way to treat the RS virus. They could only wait for the infected to take the bait.
There were many posts like this on the Internet. Everyone knew that these people were cheating
money. They were different from those people.
After posting, it attracted the widespread attention of netizens. They were onlookers who were unaware
of the facts. Some people believed it and discussed the anti-virus online.
"That sounds not good, Jane."
Robert was busy for seventeen or eighteen hours a day, only resting for a short time, but he was forced
to sleep by Pearl.
After Robert woke up, he felt much better. He drank a bottle of functional beverage before turning on
the computer to check the posts Elyse posted. In a few hours, there were already hundreds of replies.
"Is there no effect?"
Jane asked.
Currently, no one could think of any other way. They couldn't go into the Quarantine Zone to find
someone, which was too dangerous. If something happened, no one could bear the consequences.
"That's not the problem. The problem is that Elyse forgot to hide her ID and she was targeted."
The one targeted on Elyse was not the mastermind of the Evil Organization. There were too many
posts on the Internet. They did not take it seriously at all. Instead, Elyse was targeted by the authority.
Rumors were spreading on the Internet more than five hundred posts were reposted, one would be
imprisoned.
"Seriously?"
Jane was anxious and worried. It's not Elyse's fault.
Jane came up with the idea when Elyse happened to see Robert. Hearing what Jane said, Elyse
volunteered to help.
There were so many such posts on the Internet. They did not expect them to be so unlucky.
"Jane, don't worry. They are tracking our IP address. I'm setting up a counter-tracking system, and they
can't find anything about us."
Robert only typed a few letters on the keyboard and everything was settled. He carefully looked at
every reply, including the people who sent private letters to others. More than ten of them claimed to be
infected with the virus and they were gravely ill. They volunteered to be researched, hoping that they
would succeed.
"Most of the infected people are in the Quarantine Zone. Some died and some were reported by
relatives and friends."
Robert rubbed his chin and wondered, "How could there be so many infected people with just a post?
That's impossible."
"I think so," Jane said.
Jane couldn't understand why. She didn't expect someone to add trouble to it. She wondered what
benefit they could gain from pretending to be infected. After all, they could not earn money nor hook up
with someone.
"Maybe it's true. We'll know once we check it out." William said.
He was always so calm. The first factor that infected people had was that they had to be in a relatively
remote or deserted place. Otherwise, they would be reported and locked up in the Quarantine Zone,
where they could not be surfed.
"Yes, you are right, lock the IP address!"
After Robert heard it, he snapped his fingers. William was smart. Why didn't he think of it?
They checked the IP addresses and found three people met the requirements. Robert positioned them
on the map. After William got the location of them, he asked someone to bring them back. He was
afraid that they would find clues and the post was permanently deleted.
"Three experimental subjects are still not enough. If we want to conclude the experiment, we need at
least a hundred infected people."
Robert's mentor conveyed the opinion of the specialist team. Three people could not prove anything.
"No way? One hundred? Are you serious?"
Robert thought that was unbelievable. His mentor did not say it before!
Most of the infected have been quarantined. Perhaps some did not be isolated. However, as time goes
by, the chances of them surviving are not big. They can't just find the corpses!
"At least one hundred."
There was no other way. All experiments required large amounts of data. Three people tended to make
the conclusion accidental, so they needed at least one hundred.
"I think we need to find the infected first," Robert said.
So many experiments were a headache for Robert. He was depressed and worried that Pearl would
have to suffer more pain. He wondered if he could go back on his words.
"We still need another more ninety-seven people. Shall we post again?"
This time, with Robert's help, Jane used a hidden IP to send out the post, and they received several
hundreds of replies.
Every post had sparked heated discussion, but most of it was limited to the netizens. And they received
dozens of private letters with their IP around the city center, so they could not confirm which one of
them was infected.
The three people who only appeared a few hours later came back to report. The speculation was
correct. He found two infected people according to the IP address. The other one was not infected. He
just went to write and lived in the wooden house in the village for a few days.
To avoid being exposed, they pretended to be employees of the authority. They confessed everything
and made an apology. They thought it was fun and exciting when they saw many violent scenes on TV.
But in a country with more than a billion people, people like them were the minority.
"Then there are only two people now, that's far more enough!"
Robert gently hit his head. The sooner he found the infected, the better. The experiment had to be
completed as soon as possible. There were no problems with the specialist team. Now, all of them
were studying the infected people.
"How about getting a hundred monkeys to inject the virus into them to replace humans?" Frederic
asked.
It was said that monkeys were the ancestors of humans. Many viruses were first studied by animals.
Frederic was involved and felt that he was too smart. Ordinary monkeys were not wild animals. It
should not be difficult to get one hundred of them.
"No, the monkey is only one of the stages. In the end, we still need to research humans. In other
words, we have already skipped this stage because we do not have enough time."
Robert refused the suggestion. He could not find a shortcut for the infected. It was not a small number.
He was considering whether to enter the Quarantine Zone again.
"I think we should think out of the box. Many people are staring at the Quarantine Zone. If we make a
commotion, not only the people from the authority but also the mastermind of the RS virus will also
watch us." Jane said.
She stood up and shared the data with them. In terms of the development of the virus, we already had
many mature experiences, but it was not the case abroad. They cared about human rights and would
not allow their freedom to be restricted.
"Yes! We can't find the infected in the country. We can go abroad to find them!" Robert said.
He slapped his thigh and stood up excitedly. Sometimes, things would be much easier when we take a Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
