Chapter Eighty-Four: The City of Romance or the City of Fear?

Evening of November 13, 2015, Paris, France. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In Paris, France, if you are just a tourist, then most people will think that Paris is very noisy during the day, full of people, there are tourists, and the eyes are full of chaos. However, when night falls, the preciousness and loveliness of the romantic city are very conspicuously revealed in the eyes of countless people.

Standing on the heights of Montmartre, looking down on the splendor of Paris at night, the neon lights look particularly charming. The enchanting bodies and fantastical golden glow of the neon streets attract all the tourists from all over the world, as well as the people of the city.

At the same time, the night in Paris is not actually the night of Paris, and it can be regarded as a continuation of the Parisian day. Because even if night falls, when people walk on the boundless Champs-Élysées, everyone will suddenly find that under the overwhelming neon lights, the appearance of daylight is still not reduced by half.

It's just that, compared to the noise during the day, Paris at night finally exudes its romantic atmosphere, which makes people fascinated and intoxicated.

But all this beauty happened tonight with an accident. A big accident, a big horror accident.

In the evening, at 21:20, the Stade de France in the northern suburbs of Paris is holding a friendly football match between France and Germany. However, before the first half of the game was over, three huge explosions were heard outside the stadium. And with the sound of the explosion came the stunned expression of the French president who was sitting in the audience at this stadium.

It would have been better if tonight's accident had ended here. However, there is no such thing as a maybe. Tonight in Paris, terror strikes.

Five minutes later, at 21:25 p.m., Bisha Street was shot.

Another 4 minutes later, at 21:29 p.m., another Avenue de la République was also shot at by terrorists.

At 1:38 a.m., there was a shooting on Charno Street.

At 21:43, there was an explosion at 253 rue Voltaire.

At 9:49 p.m., the Bataclan Theater was shot, followed by an explosion.

At 21:53, there was a third explosion near the Stade de France.

At 10 p.m., a shooting was fired on rue de Beaumarché.

Among them, the most terrifying and terrifying scene appeared at 21:49, that is, in the Bataclan Theater. And today, it happens that Friday, the most popular 'Black Friday' for Europeans and Americans, is very dramatized in the romantic capital of Paris. In less than half an hour, the city of romance instantly became a city of fear.

Evening, 21:56.

Lin Ting, who was originally sitting in the villa chatting with Li Ran, Lin Jun, Ansair and others about work, suddenly received a phone call. Less than half a minute after the answer, the beautiful face turned pale instantly, and even the body sitting on the sofa collapsed weakly. The mobile phone that was originally in his hand slipped weakly onto the sofa. In an instant, countless tears burst out of his eyes.

This scene frightened Lin Jun, Li Ran and others next to him. hurriedly sat down and helped Lin Ting. Lin Jun, on the other hand, picked up the phone that Lin Ting had dropped on the sofa very soberly, glanced at the number of the caller, and placed it in his ear, "Hey, Chloe, what did you just say to Xiaoting." ”

It turned out that the caller was none other than Chloe, who gave Lin Ting two tickets to the Bataclan Theater today. At this time, Chloe was also shocked when she heard Lin Jun's question, but she still barely kept her senses, and said in that trembling tone, "Jun, I just heard from a friend that many other parties in Paris were attacked by terrorists tonight. Among them, the Bataclan Theater was even more ...... by terrorists at this time Hijacked. After speaking, his tone was much more relaxed for some reason, "Fortunately, Ting didn't go to the show, otherwise, I really don't know how to face you and Leon." ”

Because of the trembling, his voice and speed of speech were very slow, but Lin Jun understood the specific meaning in an instant. Moreover, Chloe's later words, Lin Jun couldn't listen to them anymore. The previous paragraph had already made his face pale in an instant, and at the same time, he also understood the reason why Lin Ting was suddenly like this. However, as a man, he was still a little responsible at this time, and he forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and asked in a voice that had also become a little trembling, "Shet, Chloe, do you know that Leon is in there?"

Usually not very elegant, but very scoundrel Lin Jun. But he had never burst out a few times, but this time, he couldn't help the irritability and fear in his heart, and he roared angrily in an instant.

And his answer was like a lightning bolt from outside the sky on Chloe's head. His ears and head went blank with the rumbling sound, and he held his phone in his hand and muttered, "How, how." ”

"Damn it. Chloe's reaction was no longer the direction that Lin Jun should think about. After saying that, Lin Jun directly threw the phone aside, and then turned on the TV with stunned expressions on the faces of Li Ran, Anse El and others.

Then, the screen that was supposed to be a TV series was inserted into the news at this time. And Li Ran and the others, who saw the words of terrorist attack at first glance, turned pale instantly. Among them, Li Ran looked back at Lin Jun even more sharply, and asked in disbelief, "Something happened to the Bataclan Theater too?"

After seeing the news, Lin Jun had already picked up his phone at this time, planning to find a relationship to ask about the situation. At this time, when he heard Li Ran's question, although he didn't want to nod, he still nodded with worry and fear, gritted his teeth, and looked at Lin Ting, who had already fallen into a daze, "Don't worry, Xiaoting, it's going to be fine, I'll ask someone to see the situation." ”

After speaking, he stood up and looked through his address book impatiently.

As for Li Ran and the others next to him, their faces were already full of astonishment at this time, and the pupils in their eyes shrank to the size of a needle's eye.

……

South Korea, because of the time difference. At this time, it was already past 4 o'clock in the morning on the other side of Seoul.

Krystal, who was supposed to be sleeping soundly on the comfortable bed, suddenly opened his eyes, and the cold sweat on his face slid down the white and tender skin to both sides.

Then, he sat up straight and breathed in the cold air in the air. Then, a cool cold wind blew from the side, and the body, which was wearing a very thin pajamas, shivered instantly.

This situation provoked Krystal to turn his head to look in the direction of the cold wind, and found that the window that had been closed was open, but for some reason. Glancing at the wind-blown curtains outside, Krystal lifted the quilt and stepped out of the bed to the window. She was just about to close the window, but suddenly found that the sky outside was still raining lightly, and it had not stopped from daytime to now.

Moreover, looking at the dark night sky, Krystal's heart didn't know why, and there was an inexplicable palpitation. At the same time, the cold wind blowing from the window blew away the sleepiness, and the mind that had been blown awake a little finally heard some sounds outside the room in my ears.

So after closing the window, Krystal, who found that he had already lost most of his sleep, found a coat and put it on his body, and walked out of his bedroom. Get ready to go outside and see what's going on, and drink some water to get some air.

However, as soon as he walked out of the door, Krystal found that Jessica was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a stunned expression, watching the TV in front of her.

Krystal, who hadn't yet turned his attention to the TV, inevitably heard the sound coming from the TV. Although it's a foreign language channel, it also hinders the two sisters, Krystal and Jessica.

Among them, Krystal was most shocked by only two terms. One is 'Paris' and the other is 'terrorist attacks'.

It was this sentence that made Krystal, who was still in his mind, wake up in an instant. The sleepy bug or something, it also dissipated in an instant. The eyes looked straight from behind the couch to the TV in front of them, looking at the panicked picture on the screen.

Krystal, who had been to France and Paris, immediately recognized the location in the picture. Because, she also used to watch performances and listen to music in the concert hall of that theater.

At this time, the reporter on the live broadcast was quickly explaining the matter. She didn't listen to much of what it was because she was surprised, but she understood the phrase, which was that 'the Bataclan Theatre is being hijacked by terrorists and a massacre is going on inside'.

At this time, Jessica, who had already found Krystal coming out, suddenly turned her head from the sofa and said with a worried face, "Didn't that guy Lin Xi just go to Paris not long ago? Do you want to ......?"

Before Jessica could finish her words, she saw Krystal hurriedly turn around and run into the room, presumably looking for her phone.

Looking at Krystal's back, Jessica on the couch looked down at the phone she was holding. Biting her lip, as the picture on the TV screen changed, her pale face that was originally hidden under the light of the screen was finally revealed in this night.

……

In the morning, Kim Taeyeon, who went back to her dormitory to rest after watching the concert with Tiffany last night, was suddenly woken up from her sleep by a scream of fear.

Before she could react, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Then, two panicked and frightened faces appeared in Kim Taeyeon's eyes, and at the same time, there was a sentence that made Kim Taeyeon instantly startle from the bed.

"Taeyeon, the news says that there were terrorist attacks all over Paris last night, and many people were killed and injured. ”

The next moment, Kim Taeyeon's whole heart seemed to tighten all of a sudden, as if a cold poisonous snake had crawled up his back, and every inch of his skin was shocked with layers of cold sweat. Stunned, he opened his mouth and sat down on the bed.

……

Back in time, on the evening of November 13, 2015.

Not long after night fell, a white Koenigsegg came whizzing from a distance and stopped on the side of the road. Then, Lin Xi, who was dressed in casual clothes, and Kim So-hyun, a little girl in a white dress, stepped out of the car.

As soon as he got out of the car, Lin Xi saw many fans who were already waiting at the door of the concert hall, so he also looked at Kim So-hyun with some amusement, "I thought that in a romantic and elegant city like Paris, there wouldn't be too many people listening to music like rock and roll." ”

"Oppa, you think too much, every city always has a myriad of personalities. Not everyone has the same impression of this city. Kim So-hyun smiled and hugged Lin Xi's arm very happily. This kind of move has not been done before by her, but in the case of watching the performance together this time, it brought this little girl a sense of joy on a date.

Although, she knows that she already has a girlfriend in this oppa. However, this does not hinder my own happiness, and I have no intention of being a meddler.

Then, the two chatted at the door of the Bataclan Theater. During this period, I met a few students from a nearby university, and the conversation became more interesting. It's just that compared with Lin Xi, a high-achieving student, Kim So-hyun does have some difficulties in communicating in English, let alone French.

Fortunately, Lin Xi is also very aware of this, so when chatting with those college students, he will also put his head to the ear of the little girl Jin Suxian from time to time, and softly take on the job of translator. In addition to this, there were also two girls among those college students, and after knowing that Kim So-hyun was still a little unfamiliar with English communication, they even stood up and communicated with the little girl at a very slow pace. On the way, if Kim So-hyun doesn't understand, Lin Xi next to him will also act as an interpreter.

In such an atmosphere, a group of people chatting is quite happy. And Kim So-hyun has made new friends for the first time since he came here for so many days, and even after so many trips abroad.

"Let's go, we're ready to start. ”

I don't know how long it took during the chat. The entrance to the theater was finally opened, and Lin Xi, who saw this, hurriedly shouted to everyone. Then, a group of people lined up and walked into the theater.

Maybe it's because they came quite early, so when Lin Xi and the others walked into the theater, there weren't many fans. So a group of people squeezed in, found a place in the upper left corner, near the bottom of the stage curtain, and a group stood there. It's not very frontal to the stage, but it's as far as back.

It's just that the only thing that disappointed Lin Xi and those college students and others was that the main passage of the theater in this place was like two directions, one east and one west, and they couldn't wait to watch the entry of the 'Death Metal Eagle' band up close. However, when I thought that the distance was close enough to watch the performance later, everyone was a little happier.

As time passed, the audience and fans finally finished entering the show.

Tonight's performance is about to begin.
