Chapter 176: The Blood-Red Mushroom Cloud in the Rain
Li Ran hurriedly ran to Bismarck's room, and then told him his intentions, and Bismarck also felt that it would be safer to send a letter to his sister Tirpitz, so she nodded and said:
"Wait, Admiral, I'll think about what I'm going to write. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Well, write before the evening as soon as possible, didn't that Miss Tennessee from the Governor's Mansion invite us to a dinner party? ”
"Well, Admiral, can you give me a little bit of personal space. ”
Bismarck was not very accustomed to writing letters in the presence of people, which made her feel very uncomfortable, so she hesitated for a moment before speaking to Li Ran.
"Oh, of course. Li Ran was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and was about to go out, but saw Nuremberg running over in a hurry and almost hit him head-on.
Li Ran hurriedly took a small step out of the way, and then said:
"What's the matter? ”
"That's ......"
Nuremberg told Li Ran about Leipzig's invitation to her house as a guest, which made Li Ran a little puzzled, and he said with some doubts:
"She invites you, you can make your own decisions, you don't need to ask my opinion. ”
"But didn't the Admiral already promise us to join your port after the matter of Tilbitz is settled?"
Li Ran saw Nuremberg's serious face, he was a little embarrassed, it seemed that he seemed to be expressing such a meaning at the beginning, according to this, Nuremberg came to ask himself whether he had put himself in the position of his ship mother in advance?
"Okay, go early and come back early, if you buy some umbrellas, you can find a guy to get them, just say what I said, by the way, if you need a gift, you can buy some dolls and bring some with you." ”
"Then I'll go first, Leipzig will wait below. ”
"Go, go early and come back early. Li Ran felt that the conversation with Nuremberg revealed a slightly awkward feeling, after all, the bond between the two had not yet been formally established between the admiral and the ship's mother, or the relationship similar to the contract, so Li Ran always felt that it seemed a little strange for him to do this.
However, now that the matter should have been settled, Li Ran watched Nuremberg go downstairs, he often exhaled, and then stood in the corridor, and then looked at the drizzling rain, and looked at the dark sky like a monster devouring some, he vaguely felt that it seemed that this majestic rain was not a good omen.
"Hey, maybe I'm really idle, and I just can't breathe a sigh of relief and I'm thinking about it again. ”
Li Ran was a little amused and expelled those unlucky thoughts from his mind just now, but he didn't know why, a kind of coldness suddenly penetrated every corner of his body.
He shuddered, reached out and touched the rain curtain outside, letting the rain soak his palms, and at the same time, suddenly there was a loud noise in the distance.
"What is this?"
Everyone in the Qiyun branch of the Four Seas Commercial Bank was shocked, and everyone looked at the place where the explosion occurred, and an incomparably huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
Li Ran thought it was his hallucination at first, but he rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then he felt the ground shaking, and then, a huge strong wind blew in his face, making him a little unsteady on his feet, and everything clanged, but the wind came and went quickly, and after a while, he regained calm.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ran heard a car passing downstairs, and the loudspeaker roared, piercing through the rain curtain and reporting an astonishing news:
"The Governor's Office has urgently notified that a violent volcanic eruption has occurred in a volcanic archipelago called Anlan, which is 2,500 nautical miles away from Qiyungang, and a dangerous tsunami is approaching Qiyungang at a speed of 100 nautical miles per hour, please evacuate to the top of Qiyun Mountain on the outskirts of the city!"
……
"Tsunami?" Li Ran was stunned, he was about to talk to Bismarck about it, but he saw Bismarck hurriedly open the door, and then asked himself first:
"Admiral, did you hear that explosion just now? It's a movement that can only be created by colored ship uniforms, I'm afraid it's not a volcanic eruption. ”
"Wait, you mean, there was a ship girl and the deep sea fighting on the sea, which caused such an amazing explosion? I didn't think that mushroom cloud could be caused by ordinary fierce battles. ”
"Admiral, you underestimate the deep sea and the ship, no matter which side it is, as long as the training level reaches the top level, that is, when the level is one hundred, after awakening certain abilities, once you are forced to the limit, the energy that the ship can carry is enough to exceed the imagination of all human research institutions.
In other words, if you humans encounter danger, their potential will be stimulated, and once the ship girl or the deep sea is in danger of death, the potential that can erupt through the ship's equipment is enough to set off a small earthquake or even a small tsunami. ”
Bismarck thought for a moment, and then explained to Li Ran the misunderstanding of the admiral's understanding.
"Oh, but why does the Governor's Mansion or the government want to hide this?" Li Ran frowned, he listened to the figure of the announcer walking away, looked at the torrential rain with some confusion, and fell into deep thought:
"And who could have caused such a battle? The red mushroom cloud that could be seen from so far away did not look like a good omen. ”
Bismarck listened to Li Ran's words revealing worry, she looked up at the blood-red and gorgeous mushroom cloud, the blood-red color, exuding an incomparably deadly taste, this feeling made Bismarck feel frightened in his bones.
That's right, not fear, not horror, but horror, as if you suddenly hear someone scratching the blackboard with a sharp object and making a screeching noise.
"Admiral, this explosion is probably not a good sign. ”
"yes, with such a big commotion, I guess the Governor is already in a hurry. ”
Li Ran looked at it for a while, retracted his gaze, he looked in the direction of the Far Eastern Governor's Palace, and said thoughtfully:
"I'm afraid the Governor, I seem, knows something. ”
"What do you mean, Admiral?"
"I don't mean anything else, I just think this rain and this explosion are too coincidental, don't I?"
Li Ran vaguely realized that something bad was happening, however, he was not stupid enough to run around for unwarranted things because of his own intuitive speculation, he hated trouble the most, thinking of this, he regained his composure, and then said:
"Whatever, the sky can't fall, and it's useless for us to speculate here, I'm more concerned about how your letter is written?"
"Ah, it's written, but are we going to the banquet in the evening?"
"Go, why don't you go, whether this explosion is a natural accident or a man-made accident, it has nothing to do with us, we should eat and drink. ”
Li Ran said indifferently, Bismarck sighed, but the admiral was right, instead of worrying about it, it was better to solve some of her own affairs first, she secretly swore to herself:
Regardless of the connection between this rain and the explosion, I, Bismarck, swear that as long as anyone threatens the safety of the Admiral, even if Bismarck's life is put on the line, the Admiral's safety will be guaranteed, and I swear by the honor of the crystallization of German technology!
What Li Ran didn't know was that since this explosion, fate had already connected him to everything thirty years ago through that letter, and this blood-red mushroom cloud might just be a manifestation of some omen.
Li Ran and Bismarck walked out of the Qiyun branch of the Four Seas Firm, and found that the pedestrians on the street were rushing to one place, Li Ran thought for a while and then said to Bismarck:
"Sure enough, the governor of the Far East must know something. ”
"So what do we do now?"
"Wait, I think the governor should be doing this to evacuate the common people, whatever, what time is it?"
"It's almost half past five. ”
"Then let's wait a minute, let's leave for the governor's palace at six o'clock, you see that the streets are so chaotic now, it is better to wait for the people to panic for a while, and the order is restored, and then we will go over." ”
"Well, got it. ”
Bismarck nodded, she felt for the first time that the so-called intuition did exist, she subconsciously approached Li Ran, she was very concerned about the cause of the blood-red mushroom cloud just now, and vaguely felt that maybe this riot was not caused by natural disasters, but man-made, so if it came, it proved that at least there were close to full-level ship mothers, and even legendary ship mothers and the like, and there was a fierce battle with the advanced wisdom deep sea on the ocean.
"Admiral, I don't like this rain a little. ”
Li Ran was thinking about how to ask Chen Yao what caused the explosion, but when he heard Bismarck express his dissatisfaction for the first time in a vague and tactful way, he smiled and said meaningfully:
"yes, I don't think it's raining at the right time, but what I hate more is that it's a good weather for sneaky stuff. ”
Bismarck felt the same way, she looked at the rain curtain and blocked her vision, this kind of weather is undoubtedly very unfavorable for warfare, but on the other hand, because of the bad weather, some unsightly actions can be covered by heavy rain, that is, there is no evidence.
Bismarck looked at the huge mushroom cloud, which had slowly faded, and her intuition told her that perhaps something terrible was going to happen after the mushroom cloud disappeared.
