"Clear the place, burn the corpses until they turn into ashes, and do the same with the entire building. Nothing should escape from this place; it would be a tragedy for everyone if that happens." Anton shouted as soon as he exited the building.

A special cleaning team, prepared to act, started moving towards the building with large gas tanks on their backs. The idea was to burn everything to prevent further contamination and ensure that no person or animal could spread the infection to other areas where its status was unknown.

Right now, all of Barcelona is closed, with military personnel guarding the roads, so with martial law in effect, no one could leave their homes, let alone spread the infection further. Transmission of a virus that spreads through saliva, blood, and bites can occur through direct contact with infected bodily fluids, such as sharing utensils, kisses, or open wounds.

Some animals can be sources of contamination, so they had to be sure to eliminate all traces of this before it was too late. "Did they find any survivors?" Guillermo approached Anton as soon as he was disinfected with special liquids all over his body and his hair was completely washed before joining the others.

Anton dried his hair, looked at Guillermo, and said, "Sir, with all due respect, if there was anyone alive, we would have likely eliminated them due to the extreme possibility of them being possessed." "Did you find traces of demons?"

Alexander entered the truck equipped with screens and said, "Those things were faster, stronger, and smarter than anything I've faced before. It's obvious it was an intervention from a dark entity; nothing can explain what we saw in that place." "Don't exaggerate." Rafael, who had removed his gear, entered the control room to find out about the mission's status.

Upon hearing these words, Guillermo, who wanted somehow to ease his pain knowing that someone had survived, ended up staying silent. This was a complete disaster because the affected individuals who had lost their families would make a lot of noise, and that would be complicated to hide even for the government.

"Do you have any plans to deal with this?" Guillermo looked at Anton, expressing his concern. Anton thought for a moment and said, "A smokescreen..." The smokescreen is associated, in its origin, with a military tactic used in times of war to approach the enemy and attack. The smokescreen confuses, distracts, and conceals.

"For what purpose are we doing that?" Alexander wasn't very versed in military matters. "With the idea of diverting attention from a sensitive issue, the use of smokescreens is well-known in the political and journalistic spheres throughout history," said Guillermo, becoming serious.

Anton looked at Guillermo and nodded. "As a politician, you know this very well. Take care of informing the media in less than an hour." In these situations, the light association has a strict protocol. The public agenda became the published agenda: As a consequence of the action of newspapers, television, and other media, the public is aware or unaware, pays attention or neglects, emphasizes or overlooks, specific elements of the scenarios.

Not for nothing has the smokescreen, defined with a beginning and an end, been considered an effective tool in the realm of politics. As long as it's reported that everything is fine, humans, being busy beings, won't pay much attention to this. Also, this won't be discussed in foreign media to avoid generating more attention.
