Chapter 914 George Is the Real Protagonist
Marvel 199999 Universe On January 1, 2010, a super-zombie virus crisis broke out in Washington DC, and was captured by zombies before midnight.
After urgent discussions on Air Force One, the president and his team decided to tell the public the truth first.
Without him, with the existence of the Xingyao Society, it is impossible to cover such a big matter. They are worried that if Xingyao will be the first to reveal the truth, their last bit of authority will also be lost.
But before addressing the public, the president did several important things, including notifying friendly nations and mobilizing the military in the name of the commander-in-chief.
In this era of advanced information, less than an hour after the incident, the major countries knew the situation in Washington one after another.
The president is clear about this, so he called his allies separately, mainly to express an attitude. Judging from the current situation, whether it is the lighthouse country or himself, there may be a moment when they need the help of other countries. At this time, show some sincerity Come out and talk later.
As for the army, there is no need to say much about this. The president is very clear that now he really has the meaning of "power is not used, expired and invalid".
While you still have the final say, do your best to plan, and if you can fool around, you can count as one.
Of course, the truth is always a little more skeletal than expected.
In fact, the real power controller of the army is neither the president nor the minister of defense, but the big bosses of various "outlets". brand.
In normal times, these bosses can still obey Shangfeng's orders, mainly because the price of disobedience is often too heavy.
But at times like now, it can be discounted.
Bullying but not hiding, several big shots have their own plans. Before the president's order arrived, they had already contacted their reliable subordinates and started some more selfish operations. It's pretty much the same.
Even the heads of institutions such as the CIA, FBI, and NSA have made small moves.
In fact, it is all human nature, and I and my subordinates are also ordinary people. There are family members, relatives, friends, lovers, etc., and they hold power, but they can’t even guarantee their safety. .
In this country, in this society, and under the capitalist system, that kind of leaving home for everyone's sake generally only happens in film and television.
What is advertised means what is lacking. Such a statement is a true portrayal of the current situation.
In addition to issuing orders to the military, the President also issued orders to the National Guard and the police before giving a speech to the public, requiring them to dispatch urgently to guard vital points in various places, such as granaries, water plants, power plants, communication centers, transportation centers, official office.
As for traffic control, this has been notified before boarding the plane, and it is treated differently, such as Washington and its surrounding areas, it is simply prohibited, no matter entering or exiting, it is basically not allowed.
A little further, it is conditional passage.
Now there are two head-scratching, even hopeless, questions on this front.
The first is the first outbreak of the super mourning virus (referring to the two cases caused by George and Donnie), it has not been more than 24 hours since now, and the official does not even have the ability to identify the super mourning virus.
The checkpoints opened in the New York area were built by relying on the three-in-one technology of the black technology from SHIELD, the specific energy field from the Hill, and the extraordinary means of the mystics.
That's why internal shelters were established at JFK, LaGuardia, and Roosevelt Island.
The output ability is poor, and there are not so many people in the security check, so the group with a low probability of "winning the bid" will come first, and the rest will go to the refuge. If it goes well, it will be their turn to go through the security check starting in the early morning of the 2nd.
Under such a background, Washington exploded, and the officials have been fooled. They clearly know that the uninfected people in the disaster-stricken areas are still in the majority, and they are now robbing people with the virus.
Every time a person is exported, the probability of being infected and spreading the infection will be reduced; the speed of virus transmission will be slowed down; one future zombie will be reduced.
But because he couldn't identify it, he didn't dare to take the risk and let it go.
Secondly, the time is too short. Even with the capacity of the Lighthouse Country, the army, guards, and police cannot be in place in time. Checkpoints can only be deployed on important roads.
For this reason, the president has issued an emergency order for the troops to act quickly due to the New York funeral incident, so that within 72 hours, they can replace the mystics and become the main force to besiege the city.
These troops don't have to go to New York anymore, they should be deployed nearby.
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and West Virginia, with the explosion in Washington, these 9 states are in danger, at least some of them are on red alert level.
And even if it is successfully deployed, it only prevents the main body of the flow of people from moving quickly along the main road, but it cannot prevent people from crossing farmland, rivers, and mountains to leave.
Even if a large number of helicopters are dispatched, patrolling 24 hours a day, and shooting when they see it, they can't be blocked. The area to be defended is too large and there are not enough personnel.
Just these two items are enough to make the president deeply pessimistic about the future development of the situation.
Of course, the reality is even worse.
Although Donnie followed her aunt and left New York through Manhattan exit, but because of the massive funeral in Washington DC and the new ban, she can only stay in Newark for a while, even if her aunt's new boyfriend is very Energy is also not working well, and now that the army has taken over, there is already a tendency of disowning relatives.
Donnie was blocked, but George was not.
This one is already in Albany.
Like many ordinary middle-aged men, George's life is not easy. His wife is a housewife, and the family is supported by him alone. Finally, his daughter is older, and the money owed by the marriage is almost repaid. I want another child, but lose my job and lose my house.
This crisis allowed George to see the plastic friendship between colleagues and the warmth and warmth among neighbors.
Corresponding to the phrase "justice does not kill many dogs", it is "most people who are heartless are scholars." '
The community where George originally lived was mostly scholars.
So only drinking buddies are left for George to chat and vent.
Then, with the infection of the super mourning virus, his wife died, his daughter went crazy, and his drinking buddies were all infected. George had no one to talk to, so he thought of his father.
After finally coming to Albany, the harvest was disappointing.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand, no one is specially prepared for another person, just when you want to see, just when you are free, just when you are in a good mood, and you can listen to other people's complaints and vent.
After George's father was widowed, he originally planned to die alone. He claimed that his heart followed his wife and he could no longer love.
As a result, an unexpected encounter sparked a second spring, and the two went to Australia to celebrate the New Year.
He once vowed to be a widow, but now he is passionate about adultery. George's father didn't feel ashamed to call his son to inform him, lest something bad happen and affect the mood of the trip. After all, going out to play is also considered a honeymoon trip.
And George, like most of his peers, has lost touch with his father.
Parents pay more attention to their children than children do to their parents. This is generally the case for human beings, regardless of East and West.
George rushed to nothing, it was getting late, because his identity was sensitive, he consciously found a San Wu Hotel for accommodation.
Depressed, not thinking about anything, let's go to sleep, sleep to relieve all worries, for this reason, he sold two bottles of high-alcohol alcohol, he is not thinking about it now, he doesn't care about the onset of alcohol addiction, and he became addicted to alcohol again.
However, he has a special constitution, and he is not drunk after a thousand cups, but he is even more hungry.
George is not a bad person, he doesn't want to eat people, and as a middle-aged man, his endurance is also amazing, he is not as neurotic as Downey, nor as unscrupulous as Reed and Susan, he is deeply affected by inertial thinking Binding is the most conservative and restrained of the four virus sources.
But so what?
The desire to eat will eventually overcome reason. George's will is not strong enough to starve himself to death, nor does he have such a will. He can only endure a little more and let those who are destined to be eaten by him Yes, enjoy more time as a human being, even if the person concerned does not have this awareness, and may not be grateful, he still has an explanation for himself.
But there is a couple of dogs next door, first they quarreled, and then reconciled with each other, this is understandable, many times they have a 'deep' communication, no matter who is happy to serve the other, they will calm down.
But after the work was done, they quarreled again, and then forced to do things, George couldn't stand it anymore.
The sound insulation of Sanwu Hotel is poor. With the repeated ghost crying and wolf howling + cat meowing in spring, it is impossible for anyone to be in a good mood if they are passively listening to the room. Just when the spirit of wine was on the rise, Xun Xun became cowardly, so George broke into the wall directly, grabbed the two of them one by one like a chicken, and gnawed.
The moment George broke through the wall, the dogs and men were already shocked by the old king next door. Before they could scream, their necks were bitten off.
George also became murderous, purposefully pointing at the vitals, so that the other party would not be zombified.
Perhaps it was this mentality that made him let go of his emotions completely, his appetite was surprisingly good, he was like a glutton incarnation, and he actually ate the dogs and men with only some scraps left.
For example, the food in the intestines and stomach is either sticky or something that is changing like shit. He doesn’t eat this, and he doesn’t eat the bladder. The heart muscle is chewy, and he likes to eat it.
In short, after eating two hundred catties, my stomach did not swell up.
But he grew bigger and more muscular. He looked majestic and handsome, more handsome and manly than before.
While he was eating, there was an episode. The hotel owner knocked on the door, and he took out two 50 dollar bills and stuffed them through the crack of the door.
The boss took the money and said loudly: "If you make a big noise again, it's not as simple as a fine. If you break something, you have to pay for it!"
This is obviously for other people staying at the hotel, and there are others who are suffering from the movement here and have been complained.
After eating and drinking, George went to take a shower, rolled up his blood-stained shirt and packed it in a bag. There was also blood on his trousers, but because the trousers were dark in color, it didn't show.
Then he put on his coat, took his bag and left.
When passing by the door, the innkeeper was staring at him in the window, but he didn't dare to say anything. After George left, he murmured, "When did you let such a murderer in?"
The innkeeper was frightened just now. George was constantly transforming, not angry but mighty. Sensitive people could already detect his aura like a scourge.
Leaving the hotel, throwing away the bloody clothes, George took a taxi, and Jean's brother introduced a bar.
He's not hungry now, but he hasn't had enough wine yet.
The bar introduced by my brother is quite reliable, a clean bar with a good atmosphere.
George sat on the bar stool and ordered a bottle of whiskey, a bottle of tequila, and a large pitcher of stout, the whiskey and tequila mixed, and the stout for tea.
The bartender is a woman in her thirties, named Jessica, mature and charming, with a bit of amorous feelings. ), George with small melancholy eyes.
And George, who was relaxed, felt guilty and disgusted for his cannibalism again, and was not in the mood to chat with his sister.
It was also because the two were destined to each other, and the drunken maniac appeared. Taking that shitty thing in New York as a gimmick, saying that human beings are going to die, and carpe diem in time, is actually taking advantage of the alcohol to harass Jessica, who has just arrived in January.
George usually hated this kind of person, and now he hated it even more. Xin said: "If you are paralyzed, can you drink some wine, there are ghosts crying and howling everywhere!"
"Get out!" He squeezed out the word through his teeth, and the temperature around him felt a few degrees lower.
The drinkable, half-drunk, flirtatious alcoholic is dull, and the drunk is ready for BB.
As soon as he opened his mouth, George's big hand pinched his head, pulled it back slightly, and pushed it again, and the man flew more than 2 meters away, fell to the ground, sprained his neck, and had five clear red spots on his face. Fingerprints, which quickly turned into bruises.
The two companions of the rotten alcoholic looked at this, and then looked at George who was standing there like a boiler. They didn't dare to blow the stab, so they settled the bill and helped their companions go to the hospital to have their neck checked.
"Thank you." Jessica said affectionately.
George waved his hand and continued to drink.
After a period of time, Jessica tried some methods without words. Seeing that George still refused to accept the move, she gritted her teeth and resorted to the ultimate method—"I get off work at 23:30, and I have good wine... "
This time George understood that the other party was picking on him.
George felt strange, and said to himself, "Since when did I have such a charm?"
Should it? Of course, as long as he has a way to vent, he is willing to try. It's useless, it's due to inertial thinking, but as he breaks the fast again and again, he is not too far away from being unscrupulous. Like before, he will never meddle in bars, mainly because of his wife and daughter. If something happens, it will affect them.
Jessica doesn't actually have alcohol at home, but she has color.
When the two were together, they were dry wood and fire, Jessica was in a long time, and George was so full of fire that he was about to explode.
So the interest-based card enjoyed the blessings, and it was the first time she knew in such a big life that it turned out that it could really feel like flying.
And as George, after completing a round of Killing and Song of Grass, the evil fire went away a lot, and his heart wanted a sustenance more and more.
So he asked Jessica, "Will you follow me?"
Jessica said mysteriously: "Yes, no matter where you go or what you do!"
Very sincere.
Perhaps after getting real satisfaction, women's sensuality will come up, and it's just so easy to talk. Anyway, another pair of dogs and men was born.
The process of getting acquainted is very exaggerated, but unexpectedly affectionate. It seems to answer that sentence: Some people, even if they have known each other for a lifetime, cannot open the door of each other's hearts, while some people can walk into each other's hearts within a short period of time.
Of course, the florist has a more poetic and concise statement: once the golden wind and the jade dew meet...
George told Jessica about his past without hiding anything.
Jessica was naturally extremely shocked, and once got goosebumps in horror.
But in the end, Jessica, who also has a story and is very unusual, chose to accept George. She said: "God sent a disaster (referring to the super bereavement virus), and I accepted the trial, but I still hope to be with good people, George, You are a good person, you have a kind heart, let me introduce myself formally, my name is Jessica Jones..."
In this way, the treasure girl of the Marvel 199999 universe met the special mourner George, and activated her super power by actively accepting the high-level super mourner virus.
In terms of the ability to roam around, Jessica is much more experienced than George. Although affected by Kane's devouring of the Infinity Gems, she did not activate her superpowers with radioactive chemicals, but her family was killed in a car accident. Although she was also adopted by the Jones family, she still could not forget her blood relatives. Drop out of school to break into society.
Without superpowers, she would never have thought about the business of a private detective, but she still learned a skill, that is, bartending.
It's a pity that her personality is actually not suitable for service work in places like bars where the three schools and nine streams gather, so she always stays in one place for a while, causing troubles, and she has no ability to be tough, so she can only run away.
She chose George, and took the initiative to accept the so-called judgment from heaven, and she also wanted to become stronger in it. She felt that since the spread of the super mourning virus has become inevitable, why not be more calm and proactive, and perhaps gain more benefits.
After Jessica learned about George's past, she quickly realized that she couldn't stay here, unless George wanted to be shot or enter the laboratory to be sliced. Exchange has been infected, but it has not been alienated yet.
Before she offered to let George bite to speed up the infection efficiency, her alienation began and ended within 1 minute.
Then she needs to eat.
So under her instruction, the two packed up, directly abandoned the rented house, and went to a nearby dark den.
Both of them are people with a certain conscience, and they are a bit reluctant to deal with innocent people, but they are completely fine with sluts and villains.
This black den was also learned by Jessica overhearing a leak when she was working. On the surface, it was a car modification factory, but in fact it was a stolen car and used the interlayer to traffic drug powder.
Albany is not far from New York. It was slightly affected by the electromagnetic nuclear explosion, and many cars were in need of repair. Jessica was sure that there were repaired cars in this dark den, which was one of the reasons why she chose to take the money from the gangsters and help her poor.
How can ordinary people be the opponent of this pair of CPs? George is a battering ram.
Jessica, who has awakened superpowers, is powerful and can jump and fly like the Hulk. She and George are a tough couple. Although they are not complementary, they don't need to worry about each other. They are tough enough.
The two bloodbathed the black den, Jessica finished the first meal after alienation, and George ate some more understandingly, trying to resolve Jessica's embarrassment.
But in fact, Jessica's heart is much bolder than his, or darker, at least she has seen more bad things, and her three views are more extreme.
So, although it was George who brought Jessica into the business, it was Jessica who took George on the road later. George didn't have this kind of thinking in the first place, even though Jessica suggested it, he didn't think it was too new. But in this world, many times the gap between people is just such a little, and you can understand it when you say it, but let yourself think that he can't think of it, can't think of it.
With the addition of Jessica, the two became able to discuss things more carefully and premeditatedly. Even if the people in the black den had food leftovers, they all had their heads in different places, so there was really no way to alienate them. Yes, although the super mourning virus is powerful, it is not a ghost movie element. Without the life instinct to send commands, it will not be alienated, so the brain and central nervous system must be kept intact, which is a minimum requirement.
When the police arrived, the two had already driven away.
It's also because the lives of the two of them should not be lost. If a series of events were delayed by even an hour, the situation would be completely different.
Because around midnight, the local police received an order from Shangfeng to start an emergency plan.
In the next half an hour, all police officers were ordered to put down everything in their hands, concentrate and arm themselves, and then held a briefing meeting to assign tasks.
This led to a pause in the investigation of the case after the hotel owner called the police.
George did not check out when he left, fearing that the hotel would clean the room and find out the situation.
But he carried a bag when he went out, and the hotel owner became suspicious, after all, he did this.
When George was drinking at the bar, the hotel owner finally connected him with the strong man who frightened him, and he frowned at the time, thinking: "My cognition is so outrageously wrong, are they the same? "
With doubts, he knocked on George's door, but no one answered. After thinking about it, he finally opened the door with the spare key. Then it was naturally attracted by the big hole in the wall, and then the dead souls sprang out of fear from the leftover bits and pieces eaten in the blood.
When the police arrived, the old detective was frightened. Or rather surprised. The main reason is that I can't figure out where the bones are. In fact, when I really care about it, it's not that I can't figure it out. After all, the remaining wreckage has bones and clear bite marks on them.
But people's thinking is limited, even if they eat it, they think in a normal way. The meat can be eaten raw, but the bones are generally stewed or crushed to make bone soup, otherwise those fascia or something It's not very picky. Even though dogs can eat bones, it takes a lot of time. It's unimaginable that a person weighing two hundred catties can be eaten within an hour or so.
In any case, it is true that this vicious case has attracted enough attention from the police.
Anyone with common sense in criminal investigation knows that the most critical time is within 48 hours of the incident. The sooner you get important leads, the better.
What is beneficial to criminal investigation is that once the time of occurrence is night, the mobility of the population drops sharply. Er George is tall and burly. According to the hotel owner, he is over 195cm, and he doesn't look like he weighs more than 300 pounds. Three George was drunk. FourGeorge doesn't have his own car.
So soon, the brother who drove George and the rotten alcoholic who was beaten by George were found by the police.
Both of them had a deep impression on George. My elder brother felt that George alone was equal to two ordinary people. This was the experience of the old driver on the details of the vehicle after the person was on board.
Needless to say, Lan Jiugui had bruises from five fingers on his face, and his psychological shadow was even bigger. At that time, he thought that his face would be crushed by George.
But when they found Jessica Jones, they got stuck.
Jessica's working hours are still short, and the people in the bar don't know where she rents a house.
The clue is that Jessica has a very handsome Harley motorcycle, which is a low-seat super version of the Sportsman 1200L, which is easy to identify.
So the investigators went to the traffic bureau to adjust the monitoring.
Since it was night, and due to the impact of the nuclear explosion, there were few available vehicles, so it didn't take much time to find Jessica's whereabouts.
When the investigators came to the door, there were indications that Jessica and George were indeed together and had not been away for a long time.
Just as I was about to continue the investigation, an emergency order came down, death order, no joke.
After returning to the police station for a brief meeting, people's minds changed at that time. After New York, Washington City exploded within two hours and fell directly.
This is terrible, but anyone with a little connection ability will know that even if this country will still exist, at least the east coast will probably end, especially the coastal areas, which are densely populated, and it is estimated that no one can escape.
Many people thought at the time, in this context, what should they do with themselves, and what should their family members do?
The leaders of the police station can naturally guess people's thoughts. They said at the time that it is for the safety of ourselves and our families that we must be strict in prevention, fulfill our duties, and focus on key points.
Of course, it’s not enough to just talk about great principles, but you have to be moved with emotion. The leader said: "I am a person who knows how to take care of my own people. Civil servants are fighting on the front line at this time. Naturally, their worries must be resolved. You are worthy of yourself." I will be worthy of you, this is my promise."
One sentence is enough. The reason is very simple. At this time, when it comes to being well-informed, the public has civil servants who are well-informed, and when it comes to solving problems, ordinary people have official channels and are more powerful? impossible!
Including those who are superstitious about gangsters, those without official status turn a blind eye and smuggle a piece of wool. It’s all about being smart and changing tricks all day long. What kind of cost is that? Black business is also a business. If it’s a business, the cost is too complicated. Can't compete!
So the police and gangsters are not talking about it. Those who don't know how to make connections are not qualified gangsters, and they can't work for a long time. If they can't do it, they barely survive.
So all civil servants know that the most powerful organization in the world is the civil servant team. If you lose this job at a time like this, you'd be an asshole.
You can only obey orders, and do your best to satisfy Shangfeng, otherwise your colleagues will not be spared.
As a result, a certain Fu Zhixin from the task force got connected and told the case under investigation in public.
At that time, the place with hundreds of people was silent, and everyone was horrified...
