"Golden Circle Honor Presentation - Poppy Pharmaceuticals"
"First of all, everyone must have a happy Christmas, Merry Christmas"
Poppy Adams' face appeared in front of the camera, and she pushed up her pair of red square glasses, with a sweet smile on her face, but the madness in her eyes made people feel cold behind her back.
"Mr. President, my name is Poppy Adams. Since the United Nations has no real power, I chose you as a world leader to receive this news. Now I want to talk to you about the largest hostage-taking incident in human history."
Having said that, Poppy Adams smiled confidently, she tilted her head, and faced the camera with a half face. "A few weeks ago a specially crafted virus was released into society through my various products. Marijuana, cocaine, heroin, opium, ecstasy, and ice- Virus. Some of you have already been infected with the virus, and you will experience the following symptoms in the next time."
Poppy Adams held out a hand to show the audience several rooms behind her. "After a short incubation period, patients will gradually develop the first stage of symptoms, blue rashes."
She snapped her fingers. The man in the first room folded his arms and was emotionally unstable. Blue lines appeared on his skin along the blood vessels. have invaded the brain, causing great distress to patients and those around them,"
Poppy lowered his voice, like the exaggerated villain in the animation, "The third stage, paralysis." The man in this room was stiff all over, his fingers bent in a strange arc, accompanied by slight twitches, "The whole body The muscles of the throat go into a high-level epileptic state, and once the muscles in the throat become infected, the patient becomes unable to breathe, and within 12 hours, the patient dies in a very tragic way."
At the moment when she was giving a speech, the man in the room suddenly bled from his orifices, and the blood from his nostrils gushed out like a fountain. Immediately, he fell to the ground, and the glass in front of him was splashed with blood.
"However, I have good news for the millions of patients who are already infected. None of this is necessarily going to happen. I have the antidote here," Poppy said with a smile, holding a small glass bottle, It was filled with yellow potion, and melodious and soothing music sounded on the TV very well. The stiff man in the fourth room was given an antidote by the doctor, and he instantly returned to normal.
"What the hell did you do to me? You crazy woman!" he even had the strength to yell.
Poppy Adams adjusted her glasses and showed an impatient expression, but in the end she did not reprimand the men in the room, "My antidote, the medicine will cure the disease, as long as I give an order, it can be shipped anywhere in the world at any time. I can use my personality as a guarantee, and I will definitely do what I say, as long as I meet the following conditions."
The face of Poppy Adams returned to the screen, "First, stop the crackdown on drugs, legalize all illegal drugs, and work on creating a whole new market that is not only regulated but also taxed, just like alcohol same industry.
Second, grant complete immunity to me and my colleagues.Agree to my terms and I will assist you in making our country more prosperous, stimulating our sluggish economy, and greatly reducing law enforcement costs.Of course, you can also be stubborn, stand your ground, continue to enforce pointless drug prohibition, and get blood on your hands. "
"Save Lives, Open Drugs"
Finally, these ironic characters appeared on the screen.
"Poppy Adams, I'm really impatient." Oliver's hands circled meaninglessly on the back of the chair, which showed that he was a little impatient, but he couldn't find a target for action.
Their deduction yesterday was confirmed. The person who attacked the King'sman was this crazy Miss Poppy Adams on TV, holding a drug cartel called the Golden Circle.
It's 9:[-] ET, and most workers in the city have already started their busy day, including the Oval Office. Poppy Adams couldn't wait to release her message to the world at this time.
It's two o'clock in the afternoon in London.Even though some of the available information was analyzed last night, when Roxy, Eggsy and Mycroft's agents went to track down the three members of the Golden Circle, they couldn't get any news from them. Oliver tried in the past, and these people Really don't know anything.
With no fingerprints and smoothed tooth marks, the owner of the Golden Circle seems to want to completely erase all personal information about her men.
Christine and James, two elderly people, couldn't hold on to the long hours of work. Lim and Colin sent them back last night, and used communication tools with Merlin.
Changed a few news channels casually, and looked at the attitudes of European countries and the United States towards this incident.In the United States, the recipient of the information, news reports indicate that the hospital is currently in chaos, but the president is still holding an emergency secret meeting without an official statement.
The attitude of Europe is vacillating, and it seems to be waiting for the statement of the United States. Only Russia has firmly rejected Poppy Adams' opinion.As for the UK, Mycroft explained to Oliver that they would not accept such a threat, but finally decided to deal with those old guys in the parliament.
In Asia, the Chinese government has made it clear that it will not accept such conditions. The small countries near the sea have not made a statement, but those in Southeast Asia have been pressured by a big guy above them and can only follow suit, but the actual actions are unknown. After all, there It is one of the world's three major drug producing areas.
Oliver's and Hotch's phones rang simultaneously with a text message advising government staff and law enforcement not to take any action, as well as a travel ban and a customs ban.
"What do they mean?"
Hotch didn't answer.
Although Oliver asked this question, he actually had a faint guess in his heart that the United States planned to compromise with Poppy Adams on the surface.
Regarding this kind of provocative power, the United States, which thinks that the world's police force should come forward, but currently requires law enforcement officers not to take any action. This is not like their style. of people to fend for themselves.
"Listen to what Mycroft means again." Lim pressed his temples and threw the phone to them. Last night, she drove Oliver, Hotch and Lily to sleep, but she didn't close her eyes all night to deal with the huge problem with Merlin. data.
"The parliament is still discussing. I'm afraid that group of people will not be able to come up with a result until the end of the whole incident. I actually miss Disraeli now." He sneered, "From the situation of my private contacts with governments Look, the United States is implementing military martial law, they are gathering all the infected people in one place, and they are drafting a presidential decree, expressing their acceptance of Poppy Adams' conditions, but they are actually standing still, waiting for the infected people to die and the incident to end."
Oliver frowned. To be honest, he didn't like those drug addicts who violated the law, but that didn't mean he accepted using this method to wipe out hundreds of millions of people. This wasn't an individual hostage-taking incident.
Lily tugged at Oliver's sleeve and whispered in his ear, "Brother, can you come with me? I have something to tell you."
Oliver raised his hand to press away the wrinkles between his brows, and looked at her suspiciously, "Does it have to be now?"
Lily lowered her eyes, her head was already buried, but she nodded her head again, and she buried her head even deeper.She pulled Oliver into the bedroom and locked the door carefully.
"Any questions?"
Lily pursed her lips, glanced at Oliver with dark green eyes and quickly retracted them, she was a little scared.
"Don't worry," Oliver patted her on the shoulder, "you can tell me if you have any questions."
Lily took a deep breath, pulled up her sleeves, and showed Oliver her arm. There were blue-purple marks along the veins of the blood vessels, just like Poppy Adams showed in her video, like alien reptiles Spread on snow-white skin.She then undid the first button of the collar, and the blue lines spread quickly, even the marks on the neck could not be covered, and they would soon spread to the face.
"My God, what did you do?" Oliver lowered his voice, trying not to explode too violently, but the suppression in the voice alone made Lily flinch, and Oliver grabbed her. wrist.
She felt that her nose was stuffy, she couldn't help pressing her lips, and said something vaguely, "I promise I haven't touched those things, but I don't know, I, I don't know why it happened."
"Are you sure you haven't touched it at all?" Oliver met Lily's dark green eyes. She was terrified, terrified. Almost instantly, tears filled her eyes, and they began to become red and swollen.
"I really haven't touched it." The tears couldn't stop.
Oliver couldn't care about anything else, and wiped away the tears on her cheeks distressedly, but more tears flowed down, "Calm down first, don't be afraid, think about what special food you have eaten recently Or something else?"
"No, it's just a normal three meals a day... Well, I remembered, and I also took a kind of medicine, painkiller."
"Are you hurt?" She hadn't asked Lily since she came to London.
Lily shook her head, "No, it's a little problem left after the wounds from the last New York battle recovered. The weather is too humid, and the healed wounds will hurt."
"Where did you get your medicine?"
"After coming to London, I found a random pharmacy. It was very early at that time, and only that one pharmacy was open. He didn't ask me for a medical certificate. He took the box of medicine for me, and I had already eaten it."
"Do you remember the name of that box of medicine?"
"I don't remember." Lily shook her head in frustration
Oliver hugged the girl who looked like a frightened deer into his arms, stroked her hair, and gently comforted, "Don't worry, I can handle it. Give me your hand."
Lily stretched out her hand obediently, and Oliver activated his ability to sweep out the virus bit by bit along the blood vessels, while not forgetting to analyze the composition and efficacy of these viruses.
It took 5 minutes for Oliver to clear the virus from Lily's body, and he checked it several times without reassurance.
If it was said that before Oliver could not tolerate the use of inhumane means to kill those lawbreakers who were not extremely vicious, now he had to think about other possibilities.
Many raw materials for making drugs are used as special medicines in medicine, and different laws and regulations in different countries make it possible for each special medicine to be circulated. A, no, the victim of a bunch of lunatics.
Couldn't Poppy figure this out?No, she just doesn't care.But Oliver didn't want to see such a thing happen.
"You should rest for a while." He carried Lily to the bed.
"I'm not a kid anymore." Lily thumped his shoulder
"But you were crying like you were only three years old." Oliver laughed and ruffled her soft hair.
He returned to the living room, and Mycroft was still on the phone.
"Beijing's agents sent a message that they intercepted a batch of smuggled drugs a few months ago, not from the southeast where the Golden Triangle is located, but from the northwest area. Although the southeast border is extremely sensitive to drug smuggling, But the frontier defense in the northwest of China is the most stringent. Poppy missed a step. Those medicines have been sealed in the warehouse. The current comparison shows that it is the antidote for the virus. I sent someone to contact it. Come back and hand it over to the laboratory for research..."
"Do you still have agents in China?" Oliver couldn't help asking, that is the most difficult place for agents to operate in the world.
"No," Mycroft explained, "Beijing is an intelligence organization affiliated to the Chinese government. There are more or less exchanges between the intelligence agencies of various countries."
"It's too late," Oliver reminded, "I checked for Poppy's virus just now. Its incubation period is very short, but its onset is very fast."
Mycroft was silent for a while, thinking about the credibility of Oliver's words, and thinking of Oliver's mutant ability, no longer questioning.
"She issued the announcement at this point in time, not because she had just attacked Kingsman's base, but because she had calculated the release time of the virus and the onset time of the virus. There is currently no death news on the Internet, but most of the patients have entered We have entered the first stage. The most serious patients have entered the second stage, or even the third stage. If we want to save these virus-infected patients, we have not much time left, not more than 24 hours. Even if you It is too late to complete the production of the antidote with the fastest speed and the most labor."
Even if these developed countries have enough technology and funds to develop antidotes, but for those poor and backward areas, Poppy will not give them kindness.The world situation is unpredictable, a stone can set off huge waves, let alone a tornado, and regional tensions will not be so easily eased by then.
"So what do you want to do?" Mycroft's voice was dark.
