Chapter 356: Passerby Mentality
Standing on one of the streets of the city, noticing that the sun was coming out, Nexus turned his head to look at the slowly rising sun, and it felt a little strange to see the sunrise from such a high perspective for the first time.
Ignoring it so much, Nexus moved his mind, and the energy core on his chest immediately bloomed with dazzling brilliance.
In the blink of an eye, Nexus's massive body gradually dissipated, disappearing into the light, just as it had been when it came, and it was just as unreachable when it disappeared.
After Nexus disappeared, after a while, accompanied by a burst of loud sirens, police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances arrived belatedly, converging from all directions, and hurriedly carried out a series of work such as rescue, evacuation, and pacification of the crowd.
At the same time, fighter jets emerged from the clouds and flew in from a distance.
Although these pilots received the order at the first time, immediately piloted the fighters, and rushed over as fast as possible, they were still too late.
There was no way, from the appearance of the xenobiotic beast to the disappearance of Nexus, the whole process had passed less than three minutes, and they didn't have time to come over at all.
Since the battle seemed to be over, under the orders of their superiors, the pilots had no choice but to fly the fighter planes, patrol the sky over this neighborhood for a few minutes, and then began to return home.
As for the aftermath, it had to be handed over to the staff on the ground and the relevant departments and agencies.
……
Shout!
Here, a red streamer fell from the sky, and almost in the blink of an eye, it fell into the gap between the café and a clothing store next to it, condensing the figure of Duan Zilian.
"Ho...... Ho ......" As soon as he showed his figure, Duan Zilian couldn't help but hold on to the wall with his hands, panting, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Moreover, in addition to being tired, Duan Zilian also felt a pain in her body.
Fortunately, this battle was not very difficult, and it could be said that it was relatively easy when dealing with the green worm xenobiotic beast at the beginning, although the appearance of Dark Faust in the back made the battle difficult, but it was barely able to deal with it.
Therefore, Duan Zilian did not consume a lot of physical strength, and the injuries she received were not particularly serious, although there was a pain in all parts of her body, it was still beyond the tolerable range.
After gasping for a while, Duan Zilian slowly eased up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, straightened up, endured the pain, and walked out of the gap between the café and the clothing store next door.
At this time, the sun is rising, emitting warm sunlight, gradually dispelling the darkness and making the sky slowly brighter.
Standing in place, looking at the beautiful scenery of the sunrise and bathing in the warm sunshine, Duan Zilian couldn't help but feel as if he had been purified, and under the illumination of the light, the originally heavy mood gradually eased up and became a lot more relaxed.
Exhaling softly, Duan Zi couldn't help but take out the Evolutionary Truster.
The surface of the silver-white cone was very smooth, reflecting the warm sunlight, but even under the illumination of the light, Duan Zilian still couldn't see the situation inside the three translucent crystals.
Without thinking about it so much, Duan Zilian put away the evolutionary truster, turned to take out the key, turned around and entered the café, and went up to the house on the second floor, and saw that Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling's room was still closed, and it was estimated that they hadn't gotten up yet.
It's not too early, I have to go to school today, Duan Zilian immediately went to the bathroom to brush his teeth, brush his teeth, wash his face, and prepare breakfast.
In the bathroom, feeling the pain in his body, Duan Zilian lifted his clothes and looked at them, and saw that his chest and other parts of his body were already bruised, and he was slightly swollen.
These were the injuries he had just taken in the fight.
But since he had to go to school later, he didn't have time to go to Stone Wings to heal his injuries.
"Forget it." Duan Zilian shook his head indifferently, anyway, these injuries are not very serious, they are just red and swollen, at least there is no blood, he can still bear it.
Picking up his own toothbrush, squeezing some mint-flavored toothpaste onto the toothbrush, Duan Zilian began to brush his teeth.
After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he knocked on the door of the room, asked Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling to get up, and then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
After breakfast, Duan Zilian and Luo Xinyan rode bicycles and rushed to school one after another.
When he arrived at the school and entered the classroom, Duan Zilian could clearly see that Cui Kairui and many of his classmates who were sleeping in the school were excited.
It's no wonder that after five days at school, today is Friday, and as soon as the afternoon classes are over, they can have two days off.
Of course, it is said to be a break, but Duan Zilian knows that the teacher will definitely assign homework, and the college entrance examination is imminent, how can there be so much time to relax?
Soon, the morning class was over, and it was time for school to end at noon.
Packing up his things, Duan Zilian rode his bicycle home.
Seeing Luo Xinyan's bicycle outside, he didn't have to think about it to know that Luo Xinyan had returned.
Parking his bike, he entered the café.
"Huh? Brother Nan, Sister Orange, why are there just the two of you? What about Aunt Qiao and Sister Qian? Seeing that there were only two people in the café, Li Nan and Song Cheng, Duan Zilian couldn't help but ask.
"Mengmeng has a lot of classes today, so I'm asking for leave." Song Cheng explained.
Li Nan, who was at the bar, also said: "The shopkeeper's words, the coffee beans are about to run out, she went to buy coffee beans, and it is estimated that she will not come back until the afternoon." ”
"That means it's just the two of you today, so that's no problem, right?" Duan Zilian then asked.
"It's okay, although I'm a little tired, I can still get busy." Li Nan shrugged.
"Well, and there aren't too many guests, so we're fine." Song Cheng nodded.
"Oh, have you had lunch then?" Duan Zilian asked again.
Li Nan shook his head and replied, "Not yet, but we have already ordered takeout, so you don't have to come down to call us when you have lunch." ”
"Oh."
chatted with Li Nan and Song Cheng casually, Duan Zilian went up to the second floor, opened the door, and saw Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling.
At this time, Luo Lingling was sitting on the sofa, listening to the sound of TV programs idly, while Luo Xinyan was washing rice and cooking rice in the kitchen.
"Coming back? The cooking will be left to you. Seeing that Duan Zilian was back, Luo Xinyan said coldly.
"Well, I know, I'll go back to my room and put something in first." Duan Zilian touched her nose, went to the room to put down her backpack, and went to the kitchen to cook a few side dishes.
The meal was opened, and at the dinner table, Duan Zi was bored, so he watched TV by the way.
At this time, on the TV, the local TV station was broadcasting a program about Xenobiotic beasts, and the host reported this morning's events very seriously.
"At six o'clock in the morning today, at the location of the mayor's bamboo road, a huge monster like a green worm appeared, causing a widespread panic. Through these pictures, we can see that after this monster appeared, it directly destroyed a building, and no one in this building was spared......"
The host said a lot, in general, at six o'clock this morning, Xenobiotic appeared on a certain section of the city, what kind of damage was caused, how many people were killed and injured as a result, what is the situation in the affected area now, etc......
"Monsters and giants reappeared this morning?" Luo Lingling was also listening to the sound of the TV, heard the host's report, and subconsciously asked.
"Well, it was at six o'clock in the morning, because of the giant's stop, the casualties were not very serious, but fortunately the monster did not appear on our side." Luo Xinyan said with some joy.
"Now there are always programs and reports about giants and monsters on TV from time to time, and I'm tired of listening to them." Luo Lingling complained.
Hearing this, Duan Zi couldn't help but smile: "No way, the influence of giants and monsters is too great, and those TV stations and newspapers will naturally do more related programs and reports in order to increase ratings." ”
Luo Lingling was a little bored, and Duan Zilian was not incomprehensible.
Ever since the appearance of Xenobiotic and Nexus, related topics have been pouring out, endlessly, and it can be said that it is too hot to be hot.
In order to increase ratings, major TV stations have also taken the opportunity to launch many related programs to attract the attention of the public.
At the beginning, when these shows first came out, they really attracted a lot of audiences.
It's just that most of the images they can play are taken by people with mobile phones and cameras, the picture quality is not clear, and the lens is shaking, which greatly affects the perception.
Moreover, many of these programs invite brick families in various fields to call beasts, saying all kinds of lofty things that they don't understand very well, and they don't even have a useful conclusion.
What's more, related programs have sprung up one after another, so much so that many of the original programs have been removed.
Therefore, after a long time, people get tired of watching it, which makes not many people like to watch this kind of show now, or even feel bored.
Just like Luo Lingling is now.
It's not that people don't care about giants and monsters, it's that there's really not much time to care.
After all, the vast majority of people have to run back and forth for a living, and xenobiotic beasts don't appear all the time, so instead of worrying about this and that, it is better to spend more time on work, and maybe you can get a promotion and a salary increase.
Because of this, many people still have the mentality of passers-by, thinking that giants and huge monsters are too far away from them, and this kind of thing can only be regarded as an after-dinner conversation.
For them, what is more important is life and work, as long as those huge monsters do not appear on their side and do not destroy their lives, they will not care about themselves, and they will hang up with an indifferent attitude.
