After learning that Cai Fei might be infected by the virus, Ray-Ban, who originally planned to inspect the ruins of the accident submarine, immediately decided to return.

On their way back, the news that Cai Fei might be infected with the virus had reached Qin Hao and Fangyuan Yuan.

"Immediately set up a negative pressure transfer channel and activate a contactless isolation room, and make sure all isolation facilities are available before the Taotie returns."

After exchanging views with Qin Hao, Fang Yuanyuan immediately conveyed the order.

Qin Hao, who was originally very excited when he heard about the virus, now looked a little ugly. After all, according to the information sent back by the accident submarine, this virus is no less dangerous than Ebola.

While the work on the sea was proceeding in an orderly manner, Cai Fei, who had isolated himself in the transfer cabin, slowly took off his protective clothing.

The wound on his previously injured right leg was still showing signs of hemostasis. Cai Fei used the disinfectant in the transfer cabin to perform a simple disinfection, and then simply treated it with a bandage.

After everything was dealt with, Cai Fei came to a mirror. He slowly raised his head and nervously looked at his neck from the corner of his eye.

Two rows of dark red spots were neatly arranged on both sides of the throat. Although the color was not very eye-catching, it was particularly dazzling to Cai Fei's eyes.

From the information he read yesterday, Cai Fei knew that these two rows of dark red spots were the early symptoms of virus infection. An inexplicable anger suddenly surged up, and he punched the silver mirror in front of him heavily.

"Click, click..."

There was a series of sounds of glass touching the ground, and blood dripped on it.

However, Cai Fei didn't care about his injured right hand at all. Instead, he walked to the seat in the cab and took out a photo from his pocket.

It was a family photo of Cai Fei, his wife, and their daughter. It was taken at home during the Chinese New Year. The front of the photo was their New Year’s Eve dinner that night. The odd-shaped dumplings that stood out were the first time that their daughter made them.

With flour on their faces, they smiled very happily, as if happy flowers were surrounding them.

Big teardrops kept dripping on the photo. Cai Fei wiped it over and over with his injured right hand, but he couldn't wipe it clean. Instead, it was covered with light blood stains.

"call......"

After an unknown amount of time, Cai Fei took a deep breath, put the photo close to his body again, and then turned on the communicator.

A deep voice sounded in the cockpit of the Taotie: "Old Lei, help me pick up the person in charge of the laboratory."

"Okay, how are you doing now? Do you feel uncomfortable in any way?" After Lei Ban agreed, he immediately asked about Cai Fei's situation.

"Don't worry, don't you know my body clearly?" Cai Fei replied loudly.

"This is Qin Hao, the person in charge of the laboratory." After Lei Ban connected to the laboratory, Qin Hao's voice sounded in the Taotie and the transfer cabin at the same time.

"Hello, Mr. Qin, I have some questions that I need you to help me answer." Cai Fei's rich voice also passed over.

"If you have anything to say, I will tell you everything I know."

"Is the virus that appeared on the accident submarine really unknown?"

"According to the information sent back by the accident submarine, the virus they encountered on the seabed at that time is indeed not understood by us, so if nothing unexpected happens, it should be the first virus discovered by humans."

“How dangerous is this virus?

How is it?"

"Let me give you an analogy. Have you heard of Ebola?"

"I know."

"If the transmissibility and lethality recorded in the data are followed, the risk level of this virus will definitely not be lower than that of Ebola, but it is still unknown."

"Well..." Cai Fei fell into a brief silence.

"What would have happened if they had not given up the return flight?" Cai Fei's voice sounded again.

"It's hard to say because they were in a very closed space at the time, so some of the data they got about the virus's transmissibility were not very accurate. It's possible that they were only infected through contact with each other, rather than airborne transmission.

If this is the case, it will not cause too dangerous consequences."

"What if it is really airborne as recorded in the data?"

"This is what I think is great about that group of team members. If it is really airborne as recorded in the data, I think mankind will fall into an unprecedented disaster, just like the Spanish Flu that year."

"What do you think are the chances of me getting infected?"

"You can rest assured. Based on your injuries, I think the chance of infection is very slim. After all, the dry environment in the accident submarine is not suitable for the virus to survive for a long time. Even in a dried body, it is difficult to survive for 5 years.

.”

"What if I do get infected?"

"Well...if you are really infected, then another danger label will be added to the virus."

"Thank you, Mr. Qin, I have no problem." Cai Fei said lightly.

"Don't worry, even if you are really infected, I believe we will be able to save you." Before ending the call, Qin Hao did not forget to encourage Cai Fei.

After ending the call, Cai Fei turned off the communicator without giving Ray-Ban and others a chance to interrupt.

Cai Fei sat quietly in the cab, his confused eyes had lost focus, "Is there really a solution to this problem?", he kept repeating this question in his mind.

His injured right hand unknowingly took out the family photo from his pocket. Cai Fei looked at the wife and daughter on it carefully, and stroked their cheeks from time to time, as if they were trying to copy the bright smile through the machine.

The fingers are engraved in the heart.

"well......"

Cai Fei sighed deeply, but it contained the firmness, confusion, reluctance and determination in his heart at this time, and a calm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But just when Cai Fei was about to place the photo close to his body again, he suddenly discovered that there was a noble woman in gorgeous palace clothes in the photo, looking at him kindly.

Cai Fei rubbed his eyes vigorously, but found that the noble woman was still looking at him kindly in the photo, just like a mother looking at her beloved child.

"That's not right, I have just been infected by the virus, shouldn't I have hallucinations?"

Cai Fei's brain was running rapidly. From the previous information, he had learned that people infected by the virus would have hallucinations for a period of time when they entered the excitement period, and most of them had seen it in their fantasies.

A noble woman, they called her "Mother".

"My child, have you really decided?" the noble lady asked with gentle concern.

"Who are you?" Cai Fei asked in horror.

"Don't be afraid of my children, I am your mother."

noble

The woman's peaceful smile gradually relaxed Cai Fei's tense heart, and he couldn't be wary of the woman in the photo.

"Have you really decided? Then you won't see them for the last time.", the noble lady asked again.

"I can make the same decisions they can. I can't take the risk of bringing the virus back, otherwise the people I love will be hurt first." Cai Fei replied firmly.

"That lock was opened five years ago. It doesn't make sense for you to do it now. It's just a small fluctuation in time. You can definitely go back and see them."

After confirming Cai Fei's decision, the noble lady felt a little regretful and gently persuaded him.

"They will always stay with me. There is nothing to regret. This is a decision that a husband and a father should make. They will be proud of me."

Although Cai Fei's words were gentle, they revealed his perseverance that refused to change.

"Okay, kid. It's just your own choice. I will always be with you in the last period of time."

A short sentence, but like a fire bed in the cold winter in the north, Cai Fei felt endless warmth, and he gradually closed his eyes in comfort, feeling like a baby in his mother's arms.

Suddenly, with a sudden shudder, Cai Fei's unfocused eyes became clear again. He had almost fallen asleep just now, which made him break out in a cold sweat.

Looking at the unchanged photo in his hand, Cai Fei was a little confused. Was the noble lady just now really just an illusion? Why was that warm and kind feeling still in his heart?

After placing the photo in his hand close to his body again, Cai Fei turned on the communicator and connected to Ray-Ban's private channel.

"Old Lei, what I say next is very important and you must remember it."

Cai Fei's sudden voice sounded in Lei Ban's mind, making him vaguely feel that something was wrong with Cai Fei's state.

"What do you mean? Cai Fei, don't scare me."

Cai Fei ignored him and continued talking.

"I have determined that I am infected. There is no problem with the data returned by the accident submarine. There are also two rows of dark red spots on both sides of my throat."

"I have a gut feeling that once this virus is allowed to leave here, the world will face irreversible disaster."

Cai Fei's words made Lei Ban fall into silence, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"And I just met the legendary 'mother', but I can't be sure whether she is real or an illusion, because I haven't reached the stage of hallucination yet."

"Say to me, Lin Yuan and Xiao Ai that I love them!"

"Lao Cai, what are you going to do?" When he heard Cai Fei's last words, Lei Ban had already vaguely guessed what he was going to do and shouted loudly.

But Cai Fei had turned off the communicator, which made Ray-Ban punch the table in annoyance.

"Team leader, the exit of the transfer cabin was opened from the inside and locked."

At this time, a somewhat nervous voice came over.

"Immediately call up the screen where the transfer cabin is located." Ray Ban immediately ordered.

In the picture, Cai Fei is seen smiling at them through the glass of the cab, and then gently waving his hands, as if saying: "Brothers, see you in the next life."

"No!"
