Chapter 259 The Quarantine Zone
Chapter 259 The Quarantine Zone
Jane and William finally had time to rest at home. They cooked together. Jane was washing the
vegetable for William to chop, fry, and make soup. He made a lot of food.
"William, that's too much. We can't eat them up."
Jane tasted the dish one by one. They were all delicious. He cooked as well as a chef.
William was indeed a fast learner.
He was bad at cooking at the very beginning, but now that his cooking skills had improved a lot. Jane
had eaten too much again.
After walking in the yard for half an hour, Jane ate some fruit. They leaned against the sofa and
watched TV, which was broadcasting the news that happened that day. The situation was worse than
imagined. The goods of several supermarkets in City J had been snapped up and closed early.
There was no one on the street. Occasionally, a few cars passed by, and each car maintained a certain
distance. It seemed that it would take some time to restore order.
"If anyone knows the news of the infected, please call the citizen hotline and provide clues. The police
will be on duty all day."
People who were infected with the RS virus were no longer suitable to live in a group. They had to be
forcefully isolated as soon as possible. However, no one wanted to be isolated and died of despair.
Out of despair and desperation, they felt disappointed and they would likely take retaliatory acts to the
mentality.
That's the ill-nature of humans. No one could avoid it. If they couldn't find the antidote as soon as
possible, the situation would be worse, just like a plague, spreading in a large area.
After a while, Jane fell asleep.
William covered her with a blanket and walked out the door with his phone.
"Sir, are you going out?"
Lainey was trembling with fear asked William. She had been reading the news recently. Fortunately,
there was a lot of food at home and vegetables in the backyard.
The backyard was once filled with flowers and plants instead of vegetables.
Because Jane was pregnant later, William felt that eating the pollution-free vegetables planted at home
would be better, so he started to grow vegetables. Now that the situation outside was in danger, but the
house was safe.
"I need to go out for a while. Lainey, please take care of Jane."
Frederic went to Pearl's house and found that it was in a mess with the door open as if it had been
robbed. He did not know where Pearl was.
The International Mansion was also in a mess. The security guards had left. All the monitoring cameras
were destroyed.
Frederic had called Pearl, and William was ready to find her as he called Robert back. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
William said to Robert, "Pearl will not act recklessly. She will be alright."
Hearing the news, Robert was extremely anxious.
"I'll find her. Don't worry, I'll find her." William said in a low voice.
As long as he went to investigate, there must be clues. Pearl's social relationship was very simple, and
there were not many people she knew.
Pearl could not go many places in City J, but there was one thing that William had to keep from Jane.
He thought that Janie was likely to be born premature and he must keep her unknown."
William felt sorry for his wife, Janie. From the time she was pregnant, she had suffered a lot.
Robert said, "Thank you for helping me."
He was conducting a research project. Once the antidote was developed, it would benefit the world.
Therefore, he could not relax.
However, Pearl meant a lot to Robert. Giving up the person he liked at the critical moment made him
very painful.
He could only continue the experiment before he could go back as soon as possible.
"Alright."
William was as calm as usual. After that, he went out.
He met up with Frederic and told him about the situation at home.
"Let's go and take a look."
William followed Frederic to Pearl's house and found that many valuable things were gone. The
footprints on the ground were messy. There should have been many people coming here.
The TV was still on, indicating that Pearl was watching the news before she left.
She did not want to go out, or else the house wouldn't be so messy.
"Did she have been robbed or kidnapped?"
Frederic looked at the house and asked William.
"Neither," he answered.
There were still many valuable items in the house that had remained good, and a group of people
came and went hurriedly.
The news on the TV said that City J had especially drawn out a place as a Quarantine Zone.
The Quarantine Zone was full of people and citizens were asked to report by evidence instead of doing
it blindly. It was more likely that Pearl was taken away by a group of people and was quarantined.
Frederic thought Pearl was so unlucky.
William and Frederic drove to the Quarantine Zone to see if Pearl was there.
There were people at the entrance, and they had specially built a medical staff lounge.
The Quarantine Zone was once a factory with two-story red bricks. In a place like City J where every
inch of land was expensive, it was very hard to see such a place like this.
The factory and dormitory district were dilapidated and they were about to be demolished. The space
inside was very large.
"What are you doing here? This is the Quarantine Zone."
The guard at the door was a little impatient, but his attitude became better when he saw the luxury car.
They needed to register if they wanted to deliver things to their families.
"We are looking for someone. We are looking for this girl."
William turned on his phone and gave the guard a photo from Pearl's Moments.
"Hundreds of people come in a day. It seems that there is such a girl who has a fever before."
The guard took a look at the picture. He had some impression that she was reported and sent here.
"Everyone is quarantined separately in a single room. Someone would give out steamed buns and
water in the mealtime."
Anyway, they didn't have to starve to death.
If he could survive for a month, then he definitely wouldn't have been infected by the virus.
However, people went in here alive, but except for the staff, they died and were carried out.
William asked, "Then can we give something to Pearl?"
He was sure that Pearl was there and wanted to give her something.
There were rules in the Quarantine Zone. People had to send some medicines, food, and
communication devices.
If Jane knew, she would come over.
"Well..."
The guard blinked his eyes and looked shrewd.
William returned to the car and let Frederic negotiate with the guard. As long as the guard got benefits,
things would be much easier.
There was a store in the Quarantine Zone of the factory. Because they gave some benefits to the
guard, Pearl was allocated a room with a bathroom, which was not bad.
Pearl said to William, "Mr. William, please don't tell Janie about me."
Pearl's mood was not bad. She thought that she didn't have a video call with Robert, that's why he was
anxious to ask William for help.
"Robert asked me to find you. He's doing experiments, so he can't leave."
William was not good at comforting her, so he gave the phone to Frederic and told Pearl not to give up.
"I will."
Hung up the phone, Pearl was sitting on the ground and sobbing.
In the next room, there was a banging sound, and a woman was crying.
The woman shouted, "Why? Why did you send me in? I won't let you go!"
The people here, as long as they came in, would either wait for death in despair or go crazy. The funny
thing was that most of them were sent by their families.
The Quarantine Zone was a nightmare for them.
