Chapter 455: The Black Death?
Heath was paralyzed . He was really paralyzed. Heath knew that there were some diseases from previous lives in this world, but Heath had never dreamed that there was plague in this world? And a marmot was carrying plague? Heath had always thought that plague only existed in mice.
But he didn't expect that it was also found on marmots, and this was the message given by the food identifier. Heath had no doubt that it was fake. At present, the food identifier is very stable except for Xiaohong.
Xiaohong yawned sleepily, moved its ears, and then shrank back into its nest. It was still very sleepy. After turning into this form, it seemed that it wanted to sleep every day, which made Xiaohong very troubled.
"Hurry up ! It's lost!" Heath's voice became shrill and he shouted madly. Menghuan was frightened by Heath and almost threw the mouse at Heath's face. Heath's face turned pale.
If it really got lost in his face, Heath would have to contact Miss Joy the next second and voluntarily send himself to the observation room.
He had just checked that plague was also classified as a Class I infectious disease in the Pokémon world. It was a very dangerous infectious disease. Once a patient was found, he had to be immediately sent to the Pokémon Center for treatment. At the same time, lockdown and disinfection had to be carried out. It was a fatal disease.
And the mortality rate is also very high. In the past, the Black Death that almost wiped out the entire Europe was caused by the plague.
However, in the Pokémon world, because of the existence of Miss Joy and Pokémon, the plague can be detected very quickly, and it can be quickly checked whether the patient is sick, which is good news.
Under Heath's frantic urging, Huanhuan threw the marmot outside the food truck. Then Heath, wearing a mask, took out the disinfectant prepared in the food truck and disinfected Huanhuan inside and out, and then disinfected himself. But even so, Heath still felt unwell all over, as if those deadly germs were lurking in his body.
"Sigh... Menghuan, don't leave for now. You must undergo human medical examination now." Heath sighed. He discovered the plague. Although Heath felt that he was not infected, he had to know that Menghuan might have slept with him all night last night. God knows if Menghuan was holding the damn marmot in his hand at that time.
If he held it, who knows if the fleas on the marmot would jump onto his body and bite him. Heath remembered that the fleas infected with plague would have their mouths blocked and could not suck blood, so they would jump madly onto other creatures to try to suck blood, but because they were blocked, they would only cause the spread of the virus.
"Eh?" Mew was at a loss and looked very confused. Seath was also helpless. Professor Oak had told Seath that Mew was a very special Pokémon with very few sightings. But the most crucial point was that Mew was rarely observed, so people didn't understand Mew's personality and could only speculate based on some previous literature that Mew was a Pokémon without any human moral concepts.
In other words, Menghuan is a big naughty child.
"The thing you just took is called a marmot. It carries a very deadly bacteria, the plague. People who get this disease die very quickly. Fortunately, it is treated in time." Heath was disinfecting his Pokémon, and his food truck also needed to be disinfected. Heath felt that his business in Pitch Black City was coming to an end. After all, no one would be willing to let their children or family members eat in a place where the plague might have occurred, unless Heath did not report it.
"Are you talking about this?" Dreamy waved her hand, and the next second, Heath found that there was a bubble in Dreamy's hand, a bubble wrapped in superpowers, and in these bubbles, a large number of strange things were floating in a very strange way.
"What is this?" Heath was a little confused.
He had never thought that super powers could be used in this way, and weren't germs very small? Why could he see them?
But looking at the Mew in front of me, everything seems to make sense again. After all, Mew is a Pokémon with psychic attributes. There is nothing strange about having such special abilities. Well, it is very reasonable.
"The marmot just now, when I woke up I found it next to your big thing, so I grabbed it, and then I found these little things on its body." Menghuan said blankly, and Heath's mouth twitched. Fortunately, he didn't catch it yesterday.
"Wait a minute, Charmeleon come here!" Heath called Charmeleon over and performed a series of high-temperature sterilization operations. Then he breathed a sigh of relief. He had just asked Mew, and neither he nor Pokémon had this strange little thing on them. But just in case, Heath still contacted the Pokémon Center and did a simple test.
Under Happiny's inspection, Heath and the Pokémon were safe. Miss Joy, who had been holding her breath, also relaxed a lot. God knew how nervous she was when she heard Heath come into contact with a marmot.
I was even almost ready to sound the alarm.
"I'm telling you, although marmots are animals, they can't be eaten! Marmots near Deep Gray City were recently found to be carrying plague bacteria. You are lucky." Miss Joy looked at Heath with resentment, and Heath scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Well...if I say that it was Mew that took the marmot, would you believe it?" Heath was a little helpless. Miss Joy didn't believe it at all and became even angrier. She thought Heath was joking with her. Everyone knew how rare Mew was.
So how could Heath possibly meet Mew? And Mew wasn't afraid of Heath, and threw a plague-infected marmot to Heath? This is outrageous.
Heath could only take the blame with a gloomy face. As long as nothing happened, it would be fine. Otherwise, Heath felt that he would have to be isolated. Fortunately, nothing happened.
After finishing all this, it was already dawn. Heath hurriedly drove the food truck to the vegetable market. Amid the bustling crowd, Heath felt a lot more relaxed. Before, when he suspected that he had contracted the plague, he didn't dare to go out at all.
"Huh, today... forget it, let's just buy some familiar beef, mutton and chicken." Heath shook his head helplessly. He just saw some special fish being sold here, but when Heath thought of the marmot just now, he still felt a little uncomfortable and had to give up this plan.
"Sure enough, the ingredients that have been tested by our ancestors are the best. Nowadays, it is better to eat less unfamiliar things." Heath shook his head.
