859 Disinfection (1/2)
Sheng Ke wanted to say something to Zhang Zian, but the two of them were immediately separated by the Biochemical Specialist Police Unit who were waiting at the door. The mask that Zhang Zian had not completely taken off was also put back on.
”Follow us to carry out the decontamination treatment.” The specialist police pulled Zhang Zian into an inflatable tent that was set up at the side of the door.
The tent was square-shaped and had translucent tarpaulins on all sides––one side was zippered. It was more like a simple shower room than a tent.
After Zhang Zian was shoved inside the tent, and before he could even stand still, a disinfectant with foam was sprayed out from the shower head above him. There was a specialist police officer at the side who sprayed water at him using a high-pressure nozzle. After he was done with one side, he turned and sprayed the other side. He only stopped after the surface of the protective suit was completely sprayed. Lastly, he was rinsed with water and the decontamination process was finally completed.
Not only he, but all the other biochemical specialist police officers who came down after him went through the decontamination treatment. Only after the treatment could they remove the heavy and stuffy protective clothing.
If it was a common poison, they may not require such a formal decontamination process, but when they heard that only 21 micrograms of Palytoxin were needed to poison an adult, the biochemical specialist police officers didn't dare to treat it lightly––being careful was the only way to survive.
Actually, although the Palytoxin was powerful, it had already been dissolved in water, and it was not a powdery poison. So, it was reasonable to say that there should not be a problem after washing one's gloves clean. But the shower was just a preventive measure.
The biochemical specialist police officers who left last were carrying a tightly sealed box with all the live stones in Carpenter Wang's house loaded inside. They grabbed all of them to avoid any being missed.
As for Carpenter Wang's house, there was a need to go through a disinfection process before anyone could live inside.
After he was done with all the little things, Zhang Zian was finally able to breathe the refreshing air again.
The other police officers were busy with their own affairs, and Bureau Chief Chen was making phone calls one after another. When he saw Zhang Zian coming out, he pressed his hand against the receiver and said, ”Xiao Zhang, don't leave yet! We need you for an interview later. I'm currently on the line with the TV station. We must clarify this matter immediately before malicious rumors start to spread around the whole city.”
Bureau Chief Chen didn't sound like he was going to take no for an answer. It's probably because the videos and photos taken by the nearby residents had started to surface on the internet, and they had to be dealt with as soon as possible before they caused unnecessary chaos.
Zhang Zian was not in a hurry to do anything, so he just stood by and watched.
The police car carrying the live rocks drove off with the siren on, and the other police officers began to remove the perimeter cordon. However, the unit where Carpenter Wang lived in was still cordoned off.
When Xiao Liu and Xiao Wang received the notification to stand down, they both let out a sigh of relief and glanced at Zhang Zian with gratitude. It wasn't convenient for them to come over and say hello, so they just nodded before they led Red Dragon, Prince, and the other police dogs back into their police vehicle.
After Sheng Ke was done with his work, he walked over while massaging his old waist. He smiled and said, ”I didn't expect that this major case was actually because of a few inconspicuous corals. When we heard the news, we were really surprised! Fortunately we have you here, or else we would have made a big fool out of ourselves. We'll definitely be laughed at by the other stations in the bordering cities...”
