The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol

In less than ten minutes, a decontamination tent was set up, and Jack also put on protective clothing with the help of the captain.

This airtight protective suit is somewhat similar to the space suit in science fiction movies. A square hard helmet is connected to a long breathing tube on the back, which leads to the filter on the waist.

Jack swore he'd seen this style in some low-budget sci-fi movie.

The soldiers moved very quickly. Soon, an isolation channel built with plastic sheets was put into the warehouse from the basement of the greenhouse and directly connected to the cleaning tent.

Jack entered the passage and appeared in front of Red again.

"Open the door and let me get you out and take you to the hospital."

"No, I'll just stay here. I've been exposed to the germs, and maybe I'm infected now. It's better to stay inside and look for clues."

Red's righteous look almost made Jack angry to death.

"Has the strain already infected your brain? If you inhale too many anthrax spores, even if you find the right antibiotics, you won't be able to be saved. Anthrax harms the human body because of the toxins produced by the strain, not the strain itself."

"Once the strain has multiplied to a certain number in your body, even if the antibiotics are effective, the toxins can still kill you."

"I'll give you two options, one is to open the door yourself, the other is for me to knock on the glass and take you out by force while increasing the possibility of germs leaking."

Seeing the unkind expression on Jack's face, Red shuddered subconsciously, and then obediently opened the glass door.

"That body is that of Dr. Nichols. My preliminary judgment is that he has been dead for at least two or three days, which means he was not the one who launched the attack. If we find out who killed him, it is possible to find the murderer who launched the attack."

"In addition, Dr. Nichols was once a military researcher. He should have taken insurance measures and left the corresponding 'antidote', but he may have hidden it very secretly."

Before Red finished speaking, he was caught by Jack, performed a healing procedure, and handed it over to the soldiers behind him who were also wearing protective clothing.

"I'm better at on-site investigation than you. Just go to the hospital and leave the rest to me."

With that, Jack closed the glass door and began to carefully inspect the laboratory.

The laboratory is a typical biochemical laboratory layout, with centrifuges, distillers, petri dishes, microscopes, etc. for separating samples.

Jack first checked the body on the ground. It was the thin old man he had seen in the video before - Dr. Nichols. He died from typical trauma, with a hole in his head. The murder weapon was a stainless steel gas bottle that was casually discarded. .

Rhett was right. Judging from the body, the doctor had been dead for at least three days. Since he was not the one who released the germs, there was a high probability that he was the one who killed him.

At this time, Hotchner's call came in. When Jack came in, he held the phone in his hands, and then found to his embarrassment that he couldn't unlock the touch screen while wearing gloves.

"Send me a communicator in."

Jack took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and began to observe his surroundings. It was his first time working in such a high-risk environment. Although he was wearing protective clothing and he was not afraid of being infected, it still made people feel nervous.

Soon the soldiers outside the door sent a communicator, and the person on the other end of the call was Hotchner.

"Jack, how's the situation inside?"

"Well, about the body of Dr. Nichols, Red and I agree that he died more than three days ago."

"There are some cages next to the corpse. There are dead animals in them. They should be used for in vivo experiments. I can't tell the time of death of these animals for the time being, but it is estimated to be close to the time of the doctor's death."

"Someone probably had an argument with Dr. Nichols. During the fight, he accidentally broke a test tube containing anthrax spores and then fled in a hurry."

"Because this is a standard negative pressure biochemical laboratory and it is underground, it did not cause anthrax to leak. This is also the reason why the army ignored it during previous inspections."

Jack said as he continued his inspection.

"Some equipment is missing. The cabinet that should contain the finished anthrax powder is empty. Uh. There are two tables in the laboratory."

"The big table is quite messy, and it looks like a lot of things are missing. The laptop is gone, and only the power supply for an IBM computer is left."

"The small table is very neat. The documents on it are organized in order and have different handwriting. They record some basic experimental steps and disinfection precautions. These are not notes that a senior researcher needs to take."

"So Nichols has an assistant or an apprentice?" Hotchner understood instantly.

"Wait a minute, I'll bring in Rossi and Garcia now."

"Jack, is Red okay? He just called me and said he wanted to leave a message for his mother."

Garcia's slightly crying voice came from the communicator.

Everyone in the channel fell into silence for a moment, and Jack rolled his eyes secretly. This kid had a fearless attitude before, but as soon as he turned around, he started to leave his last words.

"Don't worry, I'm here and nothing will happen to him."

Then Rosie's voice came from the channel, "Jack, Emily and I are still in Nichols' office. We just checked with the person in charge."

"Nichols has a very high status here. He is responsible for his own projects independently. He basically has no interaction with other researchers here and does not lead students."

"His main research project here is cold viruses, and that's about it. Let's leave here now and come over to meet you."

Jack quickly stopped, "Well, there's no need. The place here isn't big. One or two people are enough. What I need now is an expert who is proficient in biochemical laboratory equipment."

"Dr. Kimura has arrived and she is putting on protective clothing," Hotchner said.

"Is there anything else we need to do."

"Not yet." Jack felt that the atmosphere was too depressing, so he paused and added.

"Rhett has to take off all his clothes when cleaning, right? Isn't anyone going to take a photo? If he wants to show off those difficult knowledge in front of us in the future, we will have countermeasures."

"Jack, you should know that when you take off your protective clothing and come out, you will also have to go through this process, right?" Hotchner said angrily.

"forget it."

While talking, Dr. Kimura, wearing protective clothing, entered the laboratory.

"Hey Jack, how can I help you?"

Jack handed over a pile of information in his hand, "I don't quite understand these notes. Please do a simple analysis. We need to use this to determine the identity of Nichols's assistant or student."

While Dr. Kimura was quickly flipping through those notes, Jack was not idle either. He needed to find the most critical 'antidote'. Although Red would definitely be fine, there were still several victims lying in the hospital who were fighting death. Woolen cloth.
