Chapter 125: An Event That Shocked the World

"Wake up," Feng Yiping gently pushed Huang Jingping, who was sleeping soundly.

"What's wrong?" she blinked and put her arm in front of her, "I'll sleep a little longer,

"Wait until you go to bed, hurry up and call home,"

"I won't fight, didn't I say I wouldn't tell my family?" Huang Jingping suddenly came to her senses.

"It's not this," Feng Yiping took her hand, "Something happened, do you remember the World Trade Center? We took a group photo in front of it, and we were just hit by two planes,"

"Ah, no!" Huang Jingping's first reaction was not to believe it.

"The TV is going live, you come out and watch,"

"Really?" she grabbed a random piece of clothing and went to the living room, it was about 9:40 EST, and on the TV, the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center were billowing with smoke, and the picture cut to the Pentagon that had just been hit.

Huang Jingping was completely stupid, "Is this true?" she suddenly pointed to the TV and shouted, "Look, what is that?"

I saw that next to the North Building of the World Trade Center, a small black dot was falling, and she didn't need Feng Yiping to say, she immediately understood, "That's someone jumping off the building," she said with her mouth covered.

"Don't look," Feng Yiping turned off the TV, "hurry up and call home, lest they know the news and worry,"

In the middle of the night, the two families who were sleeping were woken up by the phone, they were very nervous, and they thought something had happened to them, and when they explained, their first reaction was, "It's so messy over there, you guys should come back quickly!"

Besides, the United States has closed its airspace and forbade any civilian airliner from taking off, and it is impossible to fly if it wants to.

"We're safe here, don't worry. We're not going anywhere these days,"

However, Feng Yiping could hear that the parents were just worried about them about this matter. It doesn't seem to be very sympathetic.

This is also understandable, the year before last, the United States bombed our Yugoslav embassy, and in the first half of this year, there was another plane collision incident in the South China Sea.

It turned out that 911 would. He was still working in the company, and there was no broadband in the dormitory, nor was there cable TV, and a 14-inch Toshiba TV bought from the thrift market could only receive a few stations in the city.

The first reaction at the time. is also the same as Huang Jingping, I can't believe it. Looking at the news in the newspapers and on the Internet, I realized that it was really true.

In other words, after confirming the news, he suddenly had a ...... , not very harmonious mood.

In fact, most of the Chinese people seem to have similar thoughts to him. The following posts under the news are all likes.

A colleague who lives next to the Normal University said that he was suddenly woken up in the middle of the night, and the normal dormitory not far from his home was very sensational. Many students threw hot water bottles and other things downstairs, as if there were firecrackers, and there was a fight after the successful Olympic bid.

Later, it should have been noon, the official media set the tone and expressed condolences, and then those posts that were not very harmonious although they were straightforward and discordant were harmoniously reconciled one by one, and public opinion on the Internet turned around.

However, this time, Feng Yiping, who got up early in the morning and waited to watch, was really not happy.

If you change places, such as these three planes, and crash into the Pentagon at the same time (don't expect to crash into the White House, such a big Boeing 757, without guidance, want to accurately fall on the White House, which is not tall and occupies a small area, the requirements are not ordinarily high, and it is estimated that the world's top ace pilots will not be able to do it), then it may make him happy for a while.

But when attacking such a civilian target as the World Trade Center, especially when he saw that there were constantly desperate people on the rooftop, jumping from a height of more than 400 meters, he really couldn't be happy.

Unlike the talk shows in the United States, which also joked about the name of martyr Wang Wei in the South China Sea plane collision incident, the people of our country are still kind.

Maybe they will be unhappy for a while when they hear that the World Trade Center in the United States has been hit and the Pentagon has been hit, but after understanding the specific situation and knowing that so many civilians have been killed in the sky and on the ground, they will still sympathize with these things.

Huang Jingping, who was neatly dressed, walked over and nestled in his arms, "What's going on?"

"I don't know the specifics, but it's a terrorist attack. Don't worry, we'll be fine here," Feng Yiping comforted her by patting her on the back while turning off the TV again.

Just now, in the host's exclamation, the south building of the World Trade Center collapsed.

So far, the official has only said that it was a terrorist attack, and there is no other specific explanation.

This should be the first time since the United States, the world's number one empire, since the War of Independence, that her homeland has been attacked by such a large-scale foreign enemy.

When I received the news, Mr. George W. Bush was in an elementary school classroom in Florida, and a documentary later aired showed that Mr. President was sitting on a small stool at the back of the classroom with a blank face, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Then he began to roam aimlessly around the country, from one military base to another, and it should not be until the evening before arriving at the White House.

"Don't think about it, let's go, let's go make breakfast, we can't starve you,"

At such a time, it is obviously not good to leave Huang Jingping at home alone, and besides, after making an appointment to see a doctor, Feng Yiping simply took her and went to the school to take a look first.

In today's school, everyone is herding sheep, and those hard-working classmates obviously have no intention of attending classes, and their faces are the same as those on the faces of those ordinary people that Feng Yiping has seen all the way, shocked, uneasy, and can't believe it.

Yes, the United States is an empire that prides itself on being stronger than the Roman Empire (Western scholars, they would not think of our strong Qin, and the Yuan Dynasty), how could such a thing happen.

"Let's go to the company first, and then go to the hospital, okay?"

"Okay, now it's time to go to the company,"

It's the same in the company, no one is working, everyone is gathered in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast.

In the past few minutes, the north building has just collapsed, and some nearby buildings have been damaged, and it looks like a huge cloud of smoke and dust.

At the same time, following the evacuation of the UN headquarters, the mayor of New York, ordered the evacuation of the entire Manhattan area.

Mike said with palpitations, "Fortunately, no one has been arranged to travel for the past two days,"

Carter also said this to Feng Yiping on the phone just now, you must know that the two planes that crashed into the World Trade Center were both destined for Los Angeles, and the last "crash" (some say that the US Air Force shot down) in Pennsylvania Flight 93 was destined for San Francisco.

Feng Yiping looked at the angry employees outside, "If there is no important work, why don't you let everyone go home today?" ”

"Feng is right, it should be so," Buchanan said.

"Okay," Mike immediately went out to inform everyone.

Buchanan keenly saw the opportunity, "The construction of NEXTDOOR should be easier to get the support of relevant departments. ”

"When today's situation is clear, you can go to NAVTEQ and help Collins," Mr. Feng said.

"Why?" Buchanan didn't understand, and immediately asked, "Do you mean that there will be war?"

"Think about it, don't say that you want to give an explanation to the people, is the U.S. government the kind of character that doesn't fight back when it suffers losses?"

"Okay, I understand, I'll contact my acquaintances at the Pentagon right now,"

On the way to the hospital, they saw that many houses on the side of the road had American flags planted in their windows, and such an encounter successfully stimulated the patriotic enthusiasm of the American people.

"Why did they choose a day like today?" asked Huang Jingping, touching her stomach.

Yes, the police number in the United States is 911, they chose today's day, do they still want to be humorous?

The private hospital was very efficient, and soon, they got the message, "Congratulations," the doctor said to them with the test report.

Because they were already mentally prepared, Feng Yiping and the others were not overjoyed, but when they got to the car, Huang Jingping couldn't help but hug Feng Yiping and said, "We have a child!"

"Yes, we have a child," Feng Yiping carefully fastened her seat belt, "Remember, keep a peaceful state of mind, go, let's go home,"

All afternoon, the two stayed in the backyard and didn't go anywhere, Feng Yiping occasionally went to check the news on the Internet, and in the midst of the global condolences, the Iraqi government was like that fairy tale, the child in the emperor's new clothes, saying in a statement that this was "retribution for the crimes against humanity of the United States".

Comrade Saddam Hussein and the Bush family must have been old enemies in their previous lives, he had already fought with Bush Sr., and now he has jumped out to fight with Bush Jr., who can say that Bush Jr. took over Afghanistan and piggybacking on Iraq at the same time, is there not a reason for this?

I don't know if Comrade Lao Sa, when he was pulled out of the tunnel, when he was standing under the gallows, did he regret these wayward practices now. (To be continued.) )
