Chapter 360: The President Slipped Away First
Country J, the president's outskirts villa.
The president was listening to his aides.
"Although Huaguo accepted your request to visit, they said that because of the epidemic, they hope that you can put the date of your visit after July. A staff member said.
The president was stunned for a moment, nodded, and looked at the next person.
"The domestic epidemic started in Kyoto City and is spreading to the whole country. Another staff member said with sweat on his forehead.
Junko Yamashita walked out of the adjacent kitchen with a tray in her hand with a coffee pot and a few coffee cups on it.
She looked down at her coffee, took a deep breath, and walked towards the study with a determined look in her eyes.
After knocking on the door and entering, Junko Yamashita came to the president with a smile on her face and put the tray on his desk, "You have worked hard, you have worked hard!" She bowed slightly to her staff, "Please have some coffee!"
The president smiled at his wife with satisfaction, "Thank you!"
"Then you guys continue to work, I'm out!" Junko Yamashita smiled and bowed slightly, and walked out of the study.
Those staff members were already a little tired from the heavy information in the morning, and after reporting to the president for two hours, their mouths were already dry, and they praised the president's wife for thinking very thoughtfully, and at the same time prepared to drink coffee with the president.
The coffee is fragrant and smells like a good drink.
The assistant helped them pour the coffee and distribute it to everyone, and the president smiled and relaxed, bringing the coffee to his lips.
"It's so delicious!" a staff member couldn't help but praise after taking a sip.
The president was about to drink it, when suddenly, he shook unexpectedly and spilled the hot coffee on his body.
"Earthquake!" shouted the assistant, immediately holding the president in his arms and lowering his body under the table.
The others immediately found a place with an angle and hid.
The earthquake came suddenly, violently, and everything in the study moved from its original position in all directions.
The bookshelf toppled down with a thud and slammed down on the desk, leaving the books everywhere.
Country J is located in an earthquake zone, and there are many earthquakes throughout the year, and the buildings are not too high, and the building materials are also very light, which is unique to prevent damage caused by earthquakes.
After a few minutes of shaking, the surroundings finally fell silent, and everyone looked at each other with trepidation.
"Your Excellency, please go outside at once!" the assistant crawled out of a pile of books and walked out with the president.
The president went out, and the rest of his staff hurried out.
Before they could go outside, the aftershocks came again, and they swayed, trying to hold on to the door that only the door frame remained, and walked out of the villa, where in the garden, they were once again knocked to the ground by the aftershocks.
The president threw himself on the ground and looked back at the villa, only to see that one corner of the villa had collapsed, and the rest of the villa was crumbling.
"Junko!Ichiro!" the president shouted at the villa.
But there was no voice to answer, and the president stood up and was about to rush in, but was held tightly by the people behind him.
All of them looked up at the villa together, and saw Junko Yamashita standing there watching them in a window upstairs.
"Junko, come out quickly!" exclaimed the president.
Junko Yamashita smiled miserably, and suddenly took out a knife, crossed it on his neck, and slashed it without a trace of hesitation.
"Junko!" The president was stunned, everyone was stunned, they didn't understand, why did the president's wife, who was still with a gentle smile just now, make such a move just after the earthquake?
However, the aftershocks that followed left the president and his entourage too late to delve deeper, and they quickly retreated into the open part of the garden.
The president was silent, staring at the collapsed villa as he shook and shook.
His wife committed suicide by slitting her throat right under his nose, while his son is now crushed under the rubble, his fate unknown.
Sirens sounded outside the door, and rescuers rushed over as soon as possible, but their figures kept shaking in front of them, and the president didn't seem to hear a sound.
"Matsumoto!" An anxious call came from behind him, and the president turned back slowly.
Two staff members were calling for a man who had fallen to the ground, his lips were blue, his body was twitching, and he was foaming at the mouth.
There was a doctor among the rescuers, and he was immediately summoned, and after a brief inspection, the doctor said, "Your Excellency, Minister Matsumoto has been poisoned!"
"Poisoning, what poisoning?" the president was still a little sluggish, and he had not yet recovered from the despair in his wife's last look at him.
"It must be highly toxic! This poison is ranked as the highest care drug in the world!" said the doctor.
"How can this be......" Everyone's face was full of incredulity.
"It's coffee!" suddenly someone said.
They thought back to before the earthquake, it seemed that only Matsumoto had had time to take a sip of coffee, right?
The president jerked his head back, staring at the pile of ruins once more.
He couldn't hear what the people behind him said, and his mind was full of pictures of his wife bringing coffee in, why did she do this?
Outside the gate, several cars drove over, and the driver who had left before jumped out of the car, and when he saw the villa in front of him, he was about to rush over, "Junko! Ichiro!" he shouted, but was stopped by rescuers.
"Don't go over, danger!"
"Your Excellency the President!" an old voice came, making the president come back to his senses, and when he turned his head, it turned out to be Junko Yamashita's father, his father-in-law, Jun Yamashita.
"Why are you here?" the president quickly got up from the ground.
"As soon as the earthquake came, I wanted to come and see you as soon as possible, what about Junko and Ichiro?" Yamashita's eyes were a little cloudy, but he couldn't hide his shrewdness.
"They......" The president turned around and saw that the rescuers had already dug in the direction of Junko at the bottom of the mountain, and his face immediately became extremely heavy, "They didn't have time to run out......
Startled, Yamashita walked a few steps to the edge of the villa and saw rescuers pull his daughter out of the rubble.
"Junko!" a figure faster than the president pounced, trembling hands levitating above the blood-covered Junko's face, not daring to fall.
"Ahem!" Yamashita cleared his throat, and his warning eyes shot at the president's driver, who saw this and looked back at the stunned president and his staff, slowly put away the grief on his face, stood up and bowed, "I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone." ”
He turned sideways and let the rescuers carry the person away.
The president squinted at his driver, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Your Excellency, I think you should leave here with me!
The president nodded, took a deep breath, and took his assistant into Jun Yamashita's car, and the other staff members also got into the car behind.
Soon after they left, the president's son was pulled out, and the child, who was no longer breathing, now has no relatives by his side.
Immediately afterwards, one bad news after another came from country J.
The simultaneous eruption of several volcanoes in country J and the fact that more than half of the population were affected, coupled with the constant earthquakes and infectious diseases, made matters worse.
In a sturdy basement of Yamashita's house, the president prepares to broadcast a televised address to all the people of country J.
The staff of the TV station debugged the machine with a solemn expression, and the basement door could not be closed, and a lot of wires were pulled from top to bottom, and the ground was everywhere, and if you were not careful, you might trip over.
Finally, all the preparations were made, and the president was sitting at a writing desk when someone came up and put a little powder on his face, and he took a sip of water and prepared to start speaking.
"Your Excellency President!" Just as the person in charge of the TV station waved his hand and was about to start the live broadcast, a person ran from outside in a panic, "Just now the Maritime Affairs Agency sent a notice that there is a huge tsunami at sea that is about to hit country J!"
The president stood up, took the paper from the man's hand and looked at it, "How much longer?"
"Less than five hours!" the sweat on the man's forehead kept dripping, and the people on the TV station behind him panicked for a moment, but immediately, their professional habits took effect, and immediately people turned on the camera and pointed it at the president.
The president looked at the time, pondered for just a few seconds, and immediately made a decision.
He nodded at the TV station, "Let's go!"
The people at the TV station turned on the live broadcast camera and transmitted the signal to the whole territory of country J, and as long as there was a good TV set and a large street screen, all of them were immediately converted into images of the president's speech.
"All the people of country J, I am the president! At present, our country is suffering an unprecedented disaster! I hope that everyone will not panic and look for all the items that can ensure the safety of your lives, as well as shelters! The earthquake will continue, stay in a safe place, and our guards will immediately carry out rescue! The people in the volcanic eruption area, do not panic, maintain order, and move to a safe area in an orderly manner!"
The president's words continued, and he kept repeating his words to hope that everyone would not panic, but at the same time, almost everywhere in country J was staging a catastrophe escape.
Many people ran to the supermarket to grab daily necessities, and the supermarket staff also gave up their work and joined the snatching team.
On the streets, there are even some people who rob the things of those who have managed to grab supplies directly on the road, and the cars are congested, making the good streets look like the scene of war.
After the 10-minute televised speech, the president's speech was still playing on a loop, and he had already taken his staff to an airport by car under the arrangement of Yamashita's family.
Looking back at the land one last time, the president turned around and got a helicopter.
At the airport, dozens of planes took to the air and flew all the way to a warship at sea, after which the president sailed away from country J with his naval fleet and headed south.
In the cabin, the president continued to keep in touch with other people, and on the big screen, there were heads of several departments.
"Can any of you tell me that after the tsunami, we can go back?" the president asked.
The expression of the person on the left screen was particularly solemn, "Your Excellency, this tsunami is the most extraordinary tsunami we have never experienced, plus the current earthquake and volcanic eruption, when it passes, country J will cease to exist! Perhaps, our highest mountain will emerge from the sea and become a reef!"
What this man said, it was not easy to announce that the end of the world was coming, everyone's mood was heavy, and the president was speechless.
Without Country J, what is the point of him as president?
"Immediately send an application for evacuation and rescue to China!" the president said.
On the screen, a man in military uniform nodded, "If they still don't agree, we can just land strongly!"
The president looked at him, but scolded him half to death in his heart, but he didn't say that, "Don't do this unless you have to!"
"Okay, I understand, Your Excellency!" the man nodded, and he didn't know if he had listened or not.
No one thought that the president of a country, when their people were in a catastrophe, would slip away first!
Hua Guo, the leader's office, the satellite transmission of the disaster in country J is happening, and it is playing on the big screen.
"They just filed an application for refuge and rescue!" said one lawmaker.
"Not long after the earthquake, he left Country J!" someone sneered, "Leaving everyone behind, and still having the face to ask for help?"
"After all, it is the head of a country, and every country is looking at us, if we don't accept it, I'm afraid it won't look good!"
"At this time, what do you care about not saving face!"
"Give them the easternmost island!" said the leader.
