Chapter 1 The Rain Stops
The rain stopped.
The air is still a little wet, but people who have been stuck at home for weeks by the torrential rain can't wait. Pedestrians stepped outside in twos and twos, taking a big breath and letting the fresh air fill their lungs that had been polluted for days. The sky was cloudy, and the celestial body, which had gathered 99.9% of the mass of the solar system, appeared on the horizon again.
It's six o'clock in the morning, and there are still a few people who wake up from their sleep, most of them are old men and old ladies who have been exercising in the morning. In the backs of a group of slightly bowed backs, a small figure was quite dazzling, he walked in the crowd with a yellow ball, the bright yellow of the ball made this gray morning more bright color, even the little owner holding it was still a little sleepy-eyed.
The little guy took the initiative to follow his grandfather out, which surprised his grandfather who woke him up every morning exercise, which is a rare time for the little grandson to get up very early. Although his eyes were not fully opened, the little one still remembered to bring his favorite ball. Weeks of rainy weather left him suffocated, and he didn't even have a place to play the ball. Now this little guy has made up his mind that he wants to play back all the points he owes before.
When he walked to the familiar square, none of the other children were there, which made him a little disappointed. Obviously, everyone had made an appointment on the phone, and they would come to the square to gather as soon as the rain stopped, but now no one was there.
Grandpa went for a walk alone, and as usual, he carefully told the little guy not to leave too far before leaving. Of course he won't go too far, he knows that if he goes far, whether it's his parents or grandparents, he will be very sad, and he doesn't want them to be sad.
The little guy slapped the ball as hard as usual, but it didn't bounce as usual. The rain on the ground has not yet flowed away, and it is pouring into the sewers. The kinetic energy of the ball is absorbed by the stagnant water on the ground, and it floats quietly on the water, constantly flowing forward with the current.
That's not going to work! The little guy was in a hurry, and he opened his legs and chased after him. But the ball was getting faster and faster, faster and faster, and he felt like he was running faster than he had been in the game, but he still couldn't catch up with the floating ball. The little guy who followed the ball farther and farther away, and before he noticed, the edge of the square had been left behind him.
Without far from the park, the little one was pleasantly surprised to find that the water in front of him had calmed down a lot, and the water no longer extended into the distance, but gradually converged on the side of the road. The center of the small pond where the rain had gathered was still slightly concave, and the ball remained in the center of the depression, dripping and spinning, and did not move any further.
The ball won't go any further. The little one ran over happily, his sandals clattering up and down, and splashing in the pool of water that had just flooded his calves. He stretched out his arms and grabbed the ball at arm's length.
But in this moment, he didn't step on the ground he expected.
This happened in just a fraction of a second, and the little guy didn't even realize what was happening, and all he had in his eyes was the dripping and spinning ball. The foot that stepped into the air instantly sank into the water, followed by the ankle, calf, and knee......
"Kids, this is not a place to play."
A pair of hands reached under the little one's armpits and picked up the little one, who was still staring at the ball. All he felt was a spin around the world, and then his feet were back on the ground.
The little one looked back in surprise and saw a man in a black trench coat standing behind him.
"Ball, my ball......"
"Balls, yes?" The man leaned over, scooped the ball out of the pool, and handed it to him.
"Thank you, big brother." Holding the lost ball, the little guy bowed to the man. Leaning over the water, he suddenly noticed the underwater scene and slowly shuddered.
The reason why the ball stopped here was because there was a manhole with a disappearing manhole cover, and the water that kept flowing away gathered into a small whirlpool, and the ball was dragged by the whirlpool. If the big brother hadn't picked him up just now, and he stepped on it......
"No thanks. Okay, let's go back and play again, aren't those good friends yours? The man pointed behind the little boy. The little boy looked back along his arm and saw a little boy and a little girl with pigtails standing at the entrance of the park, looking at him from afar.
That's Ah Hong and Ming Ming! It turns out that they are not lying, they are really coming! The joy of his best friend's appearance made his fear disappear in an instant, and he hugged the ball and ran over with a happy shout: "Ah Hong! Clearly! You're here......"
Seeing the three children return to the square, Li Su took out a vice from his pocket and walked back slowly. He walked a short distance along the bushes in the square, and walked to the scarred BYD, who was hidden behind the bushes.
"Mr. Li Su, it seems that you like children very much, Miss Kotono should be ready." Godeva, who was in the co-pilot, raised her head from the information and smiled, Li Su, who was lying in the front of the car, just spread the pliers in her hand and didn't buy it.
"So did Miss Godeva want the little kid to run out of the square and see our shrapnel-ridden BYD, and then scream in horror to attract the parents?"
As he spoke, Li Su was still working on his hands, he picked up a piece of shrapnel and pulled it hard, ripped the shrapnel off the hood, and threw it into the box. The shrapnel in the carton has accumulated a small pile.
The monoliths did not come from elsewhere, but were a gift from a mysterious figure when they were about to leave the Nibelungen. As they were about to leave the Nibelungen, a few rays of light lit up on the distant horizon. Before Li Su and his party in the car could understand what was going on, Kaguya's voice had already sounded in the car.
"Mr. Li Su! Rockets from unknown sources have been detected! Run! ”
Of course, Kaguya is not the kind of waste wood artificial intelligence in the movie where danger comes and can only shout run and run, and it can't help at all, and the machine gun hidden in the hood of BYD has been poked out. The barrel of the gun rotated, the rockets were exploded in the air, and the large flames were as beautiful as fireworks.
It's just that before Li Su and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, the light that was far more than the first time lit up again. Bright light spread densely along the horizon, like a swarm of fireflies awakened from dormancy, but these things were a hundred times more dangerous than fireflies!
"Kaguyahime, it's up to you! Lu Mingfei, turn off the lights! Keep your distance from us! Li Su shouted and gave orders, and at the same time slammed the accelerator, and BYD rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"Turn off the lights? What do you guys do! Lu Mingfei asked with a yell. Of course, he understood what Li Su meant. The sun hadn't risen yet, and the other party had just locked on to them with the lights of the two cars, and once the lights were turned off, they would be able to blend into the night.
Being able to ambush them in this place, Lu Mingfei, the backhand that the other party can leave behind, has no idea at all, and it is impossible to guess whether they will pull out any more terrifying weapons.
But as long as you leave a headlight, you will still have a target for the opponent to pour firepower, and they will have less chance of using some of the more terrifying hole cards, just like the camouflage fire points laid on the battlefield in order to consume the opponent's ammunition.
But the person in charge of holding the lantern ...... Also the most dangerous!
