Chapter Seventy-One: Under the Disaster
Don't ask for a wish, but for peace of mind.
Knowing that Mr. Zhong returned to China safely and Liu Shasha returned to Boston safely, Li Jiaming was relieved and returned to his rigid and peaceful life: school-company-apartment.
The sun was still shining a little dazzlingly on this day, and it was a little hot just after eight o'clock in the morning, Li Jiaming, who had no class, went to the library to return and borrow books as usual, and then prepared to go back to the company.
"Jiaming!"
Li Jiaming, who was holding two books, looked back and couldn't help but be happy, and quipped: "Lao Ding, what is the one carrying Lao Yang on your back?"
Ding Gan, whose face was a little blue and had dark circles under his eyes, yawned, "What, she is my senior brother's neighbor, who has just entered school, and wants to go out and rent an apartment." β
"Senior Li is good".
Hey, blocking the sun with his hands, Li Jiaming looked at the gentle beauty in front of him, ten * years old, with long hair fluttering, beige T-shirt, light blue jeans, looking very simple and smiling very sunny.
"Taiwanese compatriots?"
"Well, my name is Hu Xuanxuan, and I add a propaganda Xuan Xuan next to the Japanese character. β
"The wind is late in the spring, the grapes are green and light, a good name, people are like their names!"
said that people are bookworms, but in fact, they are also bookworms, and the funny Ding Gan interrupted: "Okay, okay, don't drop the bookbag." I don't have classes today, so you can take Xuan Xuan around and help her rent a better apartment. β
For a freshman like her, it's best to live in a student apartment to socialize with her classmates.
"Don't mention it, her roommate is Lala. β
Li Jiaming remembered the disgusting thing he saw at Jenny's last time, and couldn't help but shudder.
"What about you?"
"I'm sleepy. β
Looking at it like this, it is estimated that he spent the night in the laboratory, and Li Jiaming had no choice but to take this troublesome beauty and take the new school girl to find an apartment. The two chatted while walking, and the Li family smacked their tongues secretly, and they were another demon. I came to the business school at the age of nineteen to study for an MBA, and I got a full scholarship, how did this head grow?
"Xuanxuan, what price do you want to rent? The apartment near the school is not cheap, and the slightly better ones are *hundred. β
"Single?"
Oh, this is the child of a wealthy family, Li Jiaming thought about the rent of his building, and said uncertainly: "If you don't share a house, it may be cheaper, estimated to be about 14,000." β
βming!β
Who is it? When Li Jiaming looked back, he instinctively wanted to dodge, and he was a little resistant to these people whose psychology was different from ordinary people.
"Wow, your girlfriend?"
"No, friend. This is Janine, my neighbor, this is, what's your English name?"
"Hello, I am, I'm trying to rent a house, do you know where it is?"
It's really a coincidence, Li Jiaming's building has someone to quit the rent, but the house is a bit big, a double apartment, and it costs $1,400 a month.
"So expensive?"
"You can share a house with someone",
This is also a Lala, Li Jiaming, who resists that kind of perverted love, immediately interrupted: "Janine, she doesn't want to live in a student apartment for some reason. β
Jenny's face turned black instantly, "Ming, you discriminate against us?"
"No, I respect your choice, that's why I remind you. β
β*!β
Jenny, who usually talks and laughs with Li Jiaming, scolded, raised two middle fingers at him, and rode away on her broken bicycle.
"Senior?"
"It's okay, I'll show you the house. β
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiaming watched the surging flow of people rush out of the library and rush to the nearest classroom and laboratory...... , rushing to a building with a TV set.
"What's wrong?"
"It's over!"
It's over, the inertia of history hasn't changed at all!
Li Jiaming, who had been nervous about this matter, also hurriedly ran away with Hu Xuan, ran with the flow of people, and after finding a TV, he looked at the billowing smoke in the TV in amazement.
βmy\/god!β
βmy\/god!β
At 8:46:40, American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into One World Trade Center at a speed of about 490 miles per hour, at 9:03:11, United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into Two World Trade Center, at 9:37:46, United Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon of the U.S. Department of Defense at a speed of up to 530 miles per hour, and at 10:02:23, United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into a vacant lot in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at a speed of 580 mph, only about 20 minutes from Washington, D.C.
After that, Li Jiaming stood in front of the TV for more than an hour, he was not like those American classmates, or frightened, or incredulous, or blank or crying bitterly, but he also had a huge sense of grief. No matter how hard-hearted a person is, watching a living person jump out of a skyscraper on a TV will also empathize.
That's people, living people!
Even if Li Jiaming has had the experience of taking people's lives in his past life and in this life, it is still a way to find the other party's death, but those people are civilians, innocent civilians!
Brute!
All those who disregard human life, no matter what their purpose is and how noble their purpose, are brutes!
After coming back to his senses, Li Jiaming hurriedly called back to China. This time, Sohu didn't need him to act on his behalf, Zhao Shiqing and they already had the experience to deal with the situation, and they reported this tragic incident in the world as soon as possible, closed the advertisements on the website as soon as possible, and changed the webpage to a black-background ...... as soon as possible.
But Li Fang has no experience, Li Jiaming's phone call to Ma Huateng's mobile phone, he didn't know about it. After arranging his company's mourning activities, Li Jiaming gradually calmed down, he was a senior bully student at this time in his last life, and he actually applauded. What a bastard! Today others can bomb the United States, so when will it be the turn of their own motherland?
In this life, Li Jiaming is already a master's student in economics at Stanford, and his first reaction after handling official affairs is trouble. Capital is the most cowardly, and it will be frightened when there is a stir, and the current stock market has been wiped out.
What will happen to him? What is relevant to himself is that Yahoo's stock price has plummeted, Yang Zhiyuan will not be able to convince the board of directors to invest in Future/Tech, and the new company will face funding problems in the near future.
"!"
Li Jiaming, who had not spoken foul for a long time, scolded, which also made Hu Xuanxuan, who had lost his face, come back to his senses a little, but still held his T-shirt tightly, as if this would make her safer.
"Senior, I'm afraid!"
"It's okay, the sky can't fall!"
comforting the frightened compatriot, Li Jiaming grabbed her shoulders and squeezed out of the crowd. The deceased are gone, and it is the business of the U.S. government to seek justice for them, and the living still have to live.
Out of the flooded cafΓ©, the usually bustling campus and busy streets seem to have become empty cities, and only the sun is like a fire scorching the earth.
"You, forget it, you follow me".
Seeing that this Taiwanese compatriot was still colorless and trembling under the sun, Li Jiaming had no choice but to lock his mountain bike again and take her to his company.
Li Jiaming, who returned to the company, immediately lowered the flag at the entrance of the company to half-mast to express his condolences to the deceased. In the company and in the school, all the employees are watching TV and computers, or frightened, or incredulous, or crying, or scolding. However, in the research institute on the top floor, many Chinese engineers are still sober.
"Old Jiang, come here"
"Li Dong".
"People die in the big way, and my colleagues in the United States can't count on it, so you go and deal with the company website and the music website, change it to black and white according to the sohu style, and arrange people to go to the supermarket to buy white candles, chrysanthemums and other things, and prepare for the company's mourning activities. β
"Yes", Jiang Yu, who has been in the United States for half a year, hurriedly ordered a few colleagues, and several of them left in a hurry.
After arranging the company's mourning activities, Li Jiaming, who was in a sad and gloomy mood, led Hu Xuanxuan, a compatriot who had just known him for less than two hours, to his office to rest.
