blood plague

Chapter 266 Freshmen
After the morning sun finally came in through the window, Iger stretched out.

His left arm is still splinted and bandaged, but that doesn't prevent him from having limited mobility.Without increasing the load on the upper arm, the left hand can be placed on the table and the elbow can be used as a round point for activities.

This bedroom has a large and comfortable set of desk and chairs, next to the windows, which let in a lot of light.On the table was an open heavy Bible, and an equally heavy notebook although it was one size smaller.

Iger is copying the Bible.

This is a method that Iger used to learn E-language before. You can practice vocabulary and E-language composition at the same time, that is, copying.

He usually started copying the texts first, then copied short essays from Crazy E, and finally Iger began to copy popular E novels.

The advantage of this habit is that Iger’s level of E-text can be improved quickly while reading while copying. The disadvantage is that he is too in a hurry and has no formal training, so Iger created his own E-text writing.With your big toe, you can also imagine what it would be like if the American people created their own Chinese calligraphy.

As a result, Iger's E writing was a mess, and his E writing was unrecognizable to anyone but himself.

To pick up the spelling of E text, Iger knew that the fastest way was to keep writing, so he thought of his old method of copying books.

The Bible in my hand is just right for copying.

Iger hadn't read the Bible before, but he found out after copying the Bible that he thought the Bible was a mouthful of Buddhist scriptures or Taoist and Confucian scriptures, but it turned out not to be.

The words in the Bible are very simple, and most of them are all kinds of short stories, which are quite interesting.

In this way, Iger copied from getting up until the sun came out, then put down his pen and stretched, and went out to find something to eat.

I didn't see Catherine in the kitchen. Joanna was directing a group of cooks to work in the kitchen. Iger walked over to take advantage of his position as the head of the group to make him shameless, and picked up a piece of fresh bread and gnawed it.

"Where's Catherine?" Iger asked casually.

Joanna didn't even look at Iger. She was so busy that it was not an easy job to prepare meals for dozens of people.

"Catherine is in the delivery room outside, she is about to give birth." Joanna said casually to Iger.

"What? Where is it?" Iger forgot to eat the bread when he heard it.

Catherine was about to give birth. Iger counted with his fingers, but the time was not enough.

The pregnancy period is 40 weeks, according to 4 weeks and 1 month, which is what people often call pregnancy in October.

It’s only mid-April now, and the blood epidemic broke out in early September last year. It’s been less than 4 months since it was full of efforts.

There is only one truth: Catherine was pregnant before the blood plague broke out.

This would explain Catherine's often unprovoked anxiety about her pregnancy.

Catherine didn't know if she would be abandoned by the team as a burden after her pregnancy was exposed, and she didn't know how to raise the child even if she gave birth.

No wonder Catherine can't do this or that. A pregnant woman can't work like a donkey.

It's no wonder that Thomas made a small plan, and Catherine followed him.For Catherine, it is extremely important to have a man to rely on.

Then, Thomas should also know that the child in Catherine's womb is not his, but he doesn't know whether he knew it from the beginning, or only after he transferred from the field team to the internal service.

After figuring this out, Egger suddenly felt that Thomas was pitiful and great, and his whole body exuded a light of environmental protection.But why did you do such a thing that I can't forgive.

Having a baby is a big deal, a terrible deal.

Although he knew that Dr. Bella had prepared everything, Iger was still worried.

I went to the door of the church and asked the security personnel on duty, and then Iger knew where the delivery room was.

This is a house on the edge of the mouth-shaped center of Ross Town. The garden at the entrance has turned into a primitive grassland, and all kinds of weeds have eliminated the delicate flowers and fine lawn grass.

A female security guard with a gun sat at the door. When she saw Iger coming, she stood up and saluted.

There is no need for the female security to introduce the situation, Iger has already heard Catherine's painful roar.

Some people have said that everything in human civilization is based on the pain of women.

This sentence is absolutely true.

The human skull is too big. Even if the baby's skull is not fully developed, it is still too big.While the huge skull brings great pain to human production, it also brings extremely high risks.

With the help of modern medicine, the safety of women's childbirth has been greatly guaranteed, but now, everything seems to be back to centuries ago.

Iger even knew why Bella needed a separate delivery room and arranged for a security guard with a gun.

These are all preparations for the aftermath.

Iger did not go into the delivery room. It is said that it was popular to let the husband accompany his wife to give birth before. It turned out that the wife was fine, but the husband had a serious problem.

The vast majority of husbands suffer from severe depression and anxiety after witnessing their wives give birth. This heart-piercing pain can be transmitted to other people.

Iger said "let me know" to the gun-wielding security and left.

Hope is good news.

On the delivery bed, Catherine felt that she was going to be overwhelmed. Although Dr. Bella had rich experience in surgery, she had no experience in obstetrics.

Who the fuck military doctor will do the work of delivering babies!
Catherine held tightly to the cross on her chest, and she remembered what Sister Alison had said to herself.

"We are all guilty! God!!! Forgive me!!!"

With a roar from the soul, Dr. Bella shouted happily: "Come out, come out!"

A baby's cry came from the delivery room.

Catherine, who was covered in sweat and almost collapsed, raised her hand with difficulty and put the cross in her hand to her lips and kissed it gently. Her body and soul felt an unprecedented relaxation.

Catherine's tears rolled down her sweaty face.

……

Iger, Alan and Pete are in Kate's auto repair shop. They are planning how to transform an industrial workshop. To put it simply, after Alan used Vance's production workshop in Rapid Creek Town, he found it very useful, so He offered to build a similar production facility in Ross Township as well.

In this regard, Iger naturally didn't understand, he just listened by the side.Allen pointed to the auto repair shop and kept gesticulating to Pi De, saying to Pi De that this place needs to be remodeled, and there needs to be remodeled there. Anyway, it sounds like the whole repair shop needs to be redecorated.

Kate was not there, and she took the transport convoy to pick up the goods. Iger felt that Allen should not decide this matter alone. Kate is very precious to this auto repair shop.

Kate is a mixed descendant of Slavic immigrants.

After the end of the Cold War, a large number of Slavs immigrated to America. They handed over their only wealth to the smugglers, fantasizing about finding their own dreams in this land.

The cruel reality is that many years after the Slavs came to America, many people still can only be neighbors with Nei Ge and Lao Mo.

There is a characteristic of the body shape of the Slavs, especially women, who are rich in Vajra Barbie.

Let's put it this way, Allen might have been able to beat Kate before, but now that he is injured, he may not be able to beat Kate.

Based on the idea that peace is the most important thing, Iger persuaded Allen, and he proposed to wait for Kate to come back and discuss with her first.

In the afternoon, Kate excitedly walked into her beloved auto repair shop.

When Kate went out today, she knew that Catherine had already entered the delivery room, so she specially found and brought back a lot of baby milk powder from the shelves of the underground supermarket. In addition to the 1st stage milk powder that is needed now, there are also 2nd stage and 3rd stage milk powder.

These milk powders are not only for Catherine's children, but also for her future children.

As a woman, Kate is naturally very concerned about raising children, but Bill is not yet prepared for this matter.

When Kate came to the auto repair shop, she saw Iger at a glance, then Peter, and then Allen.

Kate knew right away that something might be going on.

I saw Kate walking to the tool wall in a few steps. She scanned it from top to bottom, and then went to another mechanical operation room to browse carefully. She saw that nothing was passive. Soothe down.

Later, Allen proposed to rebuild the military factory, and as expected, Kate firmly opposed it.

Just when the conflict between the two was about to become irreconcilable, Kate suddenly said to Allen, "Allen, I know where the machine tool you need is."

machine tool?Allen was dubious when he heard it, this thing is a rare commodity.

Kate said to Allen: "According to reliable sources, there is an underground arsenal in the slums of Pudo City, and many automatic weapons circulating on the black market are made by them."

Iger was also stunned by this news. America, which has so much martial virtue, actually needs an underground arsenal?

Then he figured it out, this is determined by market demand.

Although the United States can legally buy guns, for gangs, the use of those civilian firearms is still a bit scratchy.

Gangsters prefer guns that can unload a lot of bullets in an instant.

With market demand, there will be production motivation. Using modern technology to manufacture mass-produced firearms in the last century is as easy as asking college students to do homework for primary school students.

Kate overheard Nicholas lamenting there today, saying that an underground arsenal was found in the ruins of the slums in Pudo City. No wonder he felt that Pudo City had become less and less safe in recent years.

Hearing the news, Allen became excited immediately.If you can get those machine tools, even if they are machine tools that have been burned once, then the arsenal can start working.

Afterwards, Allen followed Kate to the gold panning in Pudo City.
