Chapter 669 - 669: Nothing to Fear
“No problem, Brother Ye. Leave this small matter to me. Don’t worry.” Yu Feng sounded very confident on the other end of the phone. “Our people have long infiltrated the security check line. When they pass through the security check, I’ll make sure none of them can leave.”
“Send me a message as soon as you succeed,” Ye Ying said again.
“Understood.” With that, the two of them hung up and went to make their preparations.
“Next, we just have to wait slowly. As long as Yu Feng can send a message on behalf of Mrs. Hu, Elder Hu won’t have anything to worry about.” Ye Ying turned his head and shifted his gaze to Elder Qiao. “When he contacted Duo Feng, it was also the time for us to arrest him.”
Right on the heels of that, the two of them slowly retreated into the darkness.
At the same time, in the Federation’s central city, almost all the streets were the same as usual. Not a single person could be seen.
However, a large number of people had gathered at the train station and airport in Federal City. They were all commoners wearing masks, gloves, and holding weapons and clubs.
Opposite them were the Federation City’s armed forces and some assisting police. In the past, the scene of the police being close to the people was considered to have collapsed on an occasion like today.
Everyone knew the reason for today’s situation. The Federation’s Central City had gradually begun to be corroded by the virus. Although the speed was very slow, the number of people infected was still increasing.
If this situation continued, the hospital beds in the city would soon be in short supply. The infected people could only lie in their homes or hide in some corner of the hospital.
Because the antidote for the virus had not been developed for a long time, this development would never stop.
It was precisely because of this that more and more people could not help but suffer psychologically and physically.
As the panic gradually spread, for the people who had not been infected, escaping this place became their best choice.
During their escape, the armed forces became the greatest obstacle.
Although they knew that the lockdown was to prevent the virus from spreading further, when people faced a life and death situation, how could they care about the lives of others? As long as they could survive, they could pay any price.
Therefore, many people spontaneously formed the current camp with the goal of seeking justice for the survivors.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The sound of sticks hitting the floor began to spread outside. This behavior was expressing the dissatisfaction and anger in the hearts of the commoners.
They knew very well that their ability was simply like an egg hitting a stone when compared to true armed forces, they overestimated themselves.
However, they did this to fight for a chance for themselves. Furthermore, they did not believe that the upper echelons of the Federation’s Central City would dare to order everyone to be arrested.
Under such special circumstances, daring to do this would really incur the anger of the people.
“We protest. I believe you know better than us commoners what the situation in the Federation City is like now.”
An elected person stood out from the crowd. “What we don’t understand is that in such a situation, why can’t the decision be a little more flexible?”
“I know that everyone has something to be afraid of. Aren’t we the same? However, it’s the duty of soldiers to obey orders. We’re just following the orders given by the higher-ups.”
At the same time, the captain of the armed forces stood up. “We’ve already reported the situation here to the governor. No matter what everyone wants to say, they can say it later. I believe that the governor’s arrival will definitely solve everyone’s problem.”
“No problem, we can wait!”
Just like that, the commoners stopped what they were doing and stood quietly, waiting for the governor to appear.
Shan Yue, who was in the laboratory, saw everything that happened clearly.
Currently, her research on the antidote has already reached the most critical moment. As long as she broke through the last obstacle, the subsequent problems were nothing to be afraid of..
