Zombie Master

Sara Nakagawa had a life of fighting illness.

Born to a Japanese father and an American mother, she suffers from childhood asthma at an early age, and while she is completely cured at the age of eight, her mother suffers from an incurable disease at the age of ten.He put all his talents into study because he wanted to cure his mother, and although he wasn't a teenager like the famous TV drama, he got a doctorate in medicine at the age of twenty.

Her parents are both beautiful, and her only daughter, she has a beautiful blonde hair inherited from her mother, a glamorous body with a retracted part where she comes out, and a moist skin peculiar to an Oriental with a tension inherited from her father. He inherited the prominence of his eyes and grew up to be a beautiful woman who involuntarily looked back at some of the passing people.

Although she had various approaches, big and small, from men and some women, her interest was only in curing her mother's illness, and her seemingly devilish obsession gradually kept her away from others. It was.However, Sarah didn't feel sad about it, and was so grateful that she hated wasting time on the hassle of relationships.

However, despite all her efforts, her mother died a year later, and her father died suddenly in her forties as if to follow her three months later.Ironically, the new drug, which she completed a month before her mother died, based on data she obtained as her mother's illness progressed, proved to be very effective against the illness.However, it had no effect on diseases that had progressed to the terminal stage.If it was completed three months earlier, I might have saved my mother.I might have saved him if he was aware of the illness he was hiding in his care.Only that strong regret remained.

Sarah, who made several major medical discoveries in the process of completing a new drug, became famous and is now even said to be the Nobel Prize leader.However, even that honor was vain to Sarah.

Sarah's mother moved to Japan, which she loved, three months before she died, and Sarah is now using it.Sarah had been like a shell for a while after her parents died, but by the time she was 22 years old, she started working at a Japanese university hospital.

A year later, a zombie panic broke out all over the world, and Sarah was called upon by the Japanese government to face an unprecedented crisis.She doesn't believe in unscientific things like zombies.This must have been an unprecedented vicious infectious disease, and Sarah, who hated the disease from the bottom of her heart, naturally responded to the request.

The cause of zombie panic is an unknown disease with a very high infection rate.As a result of government officials scrutinizing the information that has been gathered from the first report, they agreed that it was the most likely.

When that happens, the equipment needed to deal with it is limited.In order to handle infectious diseases that have shown unprecedented infectivity and lethality in human history, a biosafety level, which is the highest rating of facilities that handle bacteria and viruses, is required.At level 4, it is possible to handle Ebola.

In Japan, Level 4 laboratories are located at the National Institute of Infectious Diseases and the RIKEN Tsukuba Research Institute.However, due to the fierce opposition of the local residents, it can only be operated up to level 3.Even if you think that you should ignore it in a situation of national crisis, you do not have everything you need.For example, it takes time to prepare experimental animals of primates that are close to humans.Laboratory animals are essential for verification.

However, the government had a third facility that was not made public.When the threat of Ebola struck the world, it was a shame that Japan could not completely deal with it.In Japan, which has a small land area, we can only secure places where there are residents nearby.On remote islands, the risk of accidents during transportation is too high.How should we take responsibility if dangerous bacteria are scattered in the sea?

As a result, the government secretly prepared Level 4 facilities in preparation for a real crisis in the future.Although it is ostensibly a pharmaceutical research institute, it has built a facility in Tokyo that can be operated immediately at level 4 underground.An unauthorized facility where the administration could be blown away if it becomes public.Japanese talents in this field, including Sarah, were gathered there.

And there was an effect.

The first thing I suspected was a mutant of the rabies virus.The zombie wreckage that had to be repelled has already been brought in as a valuable sample.Specimens taken from the zombie's brain and salivary glands are then immediately electron microscopic.If rabies is a symptom, the virus should be present in both.A virus with a streamlined shape reminiscent of a gun bullet, or similar, should have been found.

However, what was discovered was a bizarre thing that I had never seen before.

Indeed it was present in both cells of the brain and salivary glands.

Sarah, who first discovered it, couldn't hide her quivering voice.

"What, this ..."

The cells that were first discovered were flooded with what appeared to be a myriad of viral nucleic acids.Then, in another cell, the viral nucleic acid repeatedly replicated in the cell, and each of them was flooded with the completed form of the virus in which a protein shell called a capsid was newly wrapped.Its appearance was in the form of a large number of spheres gathered together, and a single viral nucleic acid was present so as to pass through all of the spheres.

If that was the case, it might have been treated as an unknown virus.

However, a more overwhelming reality was reflected in the electron microscope.

The brain cells that did not become the seedbed of the virus were not exposed to the attack of the virus and were not safe, and many brain cells were taken up by a mysterious virus in which many spheres that grew larger than the brain cells gathered together. It is.In addition, the viral nucleic acid wraps around the original brain cells as if they were tied up.And the viral nucleic acids that took up those brain cells were still active and eerily pulsating, even though they were taken out as electron microscope specimens.

In addition, cells taken up by the mysterious virus were found in the salivary glands.Moreover, its appearance was different from the many spheres mentioned earlier, and it had a streamlined structure like tears.

In addition, although mysterious viruses were found in various parts of the zombie wreckage, they took different forms depending on where they were found.

I was preparing the specimens thinking that there would be some misunderstanding that nothing was found, but probably because of the large number of viruses, a mysterious virus was found in most of the specimens.As a result, a total of 29 different viruses will be discovered in a short period of 6 hours.

In particular, the virus found in the blood was shocking.He had a triangular flagella with long flagella, and was free to swim in the blood where his heart stopped and stopped flowing.

Of course, this discovery was made not only in Japan, but also in the laboratories of each country investigating with a similar approach.

What the hell is going on?Is this really a virus?Isn't it something unknown other than a virus?

A moaning voice leaked in laboratories around the world.
