Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Rain That Makes the President Uncomfortable

The day is July 27, 2018. It will be 16:11 in the afternoon.

On this day, heavy rain extinguished the fires in the forest area of the town of Weaveville in a matter of minutes.

The day's heavy rain gave firefighter volunteer James Brown and his companions high-fives.

But then, the new orders let them know that it turned out that Heavy Rain did not help them complete all their tasks. Further north, around the Remembrance Peak, fires are still raging.

They followed the fire truck and headed for the fire.

The further north you go, the more firefighters and fire trucks there are. Previously, more than 300 people were distributed on a front of nearly 10 kilometers, so there were very few people. Now, three hundred people had gathered together, and it was crowded.

The car and the people were walking at about the same speed, and Brown and his companions had already gotten down and walked.

They joked loudly about the near-miraculous rain that had just been rained, and some praised the Lord and some cheered Immanuel.

Then someone pretended to be very mysterious and said, "You know what? Only the land that belonged to Weaverville was blessed. Outside of Weaveville, the fires are still burning, while the fires inside Weaveville are all extinguished. ”

Brown scoffed at this and asked loudly, "Does the rain still have eyes?" ”

The man said: "That's what Roger said, he's a helicopter pilot, he just flew back, he saw it." ”

Brown, though disapproving, did not continue to argue, but walked in silence.

The cars had all stopped, and Brown, along with a few colleagues, dragged the pipe into the blackened, flame-extinguished woods. Walk through the woods and there is a fire in front of you.

……

……

Danny Evans climbed into the helicopter as he prepared to take off, intending to fly with the pilots to see the fire from the air.

The heavy rain just now made the pressure on his shoulders much less. As the commander-in-chief, he felt the need to go to the field to check and verify the information that the pilots had returned.

He took the map he had just printed out and compared it with the field.

The more he looked at it, the more he couldn't help but be surprised, what the pilots said was true, the heavy rain really only extinguished the fire in Weaveville, and when he looked down from the helicopter, he could see a clear boundary almost like the map in his hand.

It was the line that separated fire and smoke. Inside the line, there was a fire that had cooled down, and it was scorched black. Outside the line, the fire is still burning, and the burned part can also be seen with white ashes, which is completely different from the charred black inside the line.

The most obvious is a protrusion on the map, where a small portion of Weaveville's territory is inserted like fangs into the land belonging to a neighboring town. The heavy rain imprinted the fangs on the ground, and inside the fangs, the blackened marks of fire were so obvious, and beyond the fangs, the fire was still burning.

What's even more incredible is that above the small fangs, there are still raindrops falling down, as if to cool the woodland that has been extinguished, so as to prevent it from being ignited again by the surrounding fires.

The wind was still very strong, but no matter how the wind blew, the rain still fell accurately in the fangs.

The fang-like woodland was no more than 200 meters wide but more than a kilometer deep.

The rain continued in a long, dripping stream, neither completely stopping nor crossing the boundaries of the map in his hand.

The clouds in the sky continued to converge from the south of Weaveville, and slowly dispersed as the wind drifted over the fire. But it wasn't raining anywhere else, except inside the fangs.

He took out his phone and recorded the incredible scene.

What's going on? Until he returned to Command, he was still thinking about this strange question.

……

……

Until 7 p.m., July 27, 2018, was an ordinary day. Slightly different from usual may be meeting a beautiful woman, a woman who is said to be 48 years old, in addition to being as delicate as a rose, and saying something that baffles him.

At 19:05, he finished his business and finished today's work. But before he was about to get up, he suddenly remembered what the woman said about helping to extinguish the fire, and he sat down again.

He decided to call again to inquire about the wildfires in California.

After asking, he got an exciting news, but it made him feel that something was wrong.

This aberrations came from the fact that what the woman said seemed to come true.

On the phone, the firefighting officer excitedly told him that more than 80 percent of the forest fires in Trinity County, California, had been extinguished. All wildfires in the county capital of Weaveville have been extinguished, and 50 percent of the fires outside Weaveville have been extinguished.

He also told him that if it wasn't for extreme windy weather at night, he would be able to extinguish all the wildfires within tomorrow.

When he asked why so much progress had been made, the official told him that it was a heavy rain, a miraculous rain at 4 p.m. that doused the fire in Weaveville in a matter of minutes.

The official said, thank God, even God is helping us.

Rumpt didn't have the heart to listen anymore, so he casually said a few perfunctory sentences on the phone and hung up the phone.

He tried to recall that the last words of the woman had two key words, fire extinguishing and rain.

Rumpt frowned and thought, is this really related to that woman and that prosperous technology company?

By the way, she also asked me to choose a place, where did it come from?

He struggled to remember, oh yes, it was the small town of Winston in Montana.

He took out the map himself, searched for it, and finally found the humble town of Winston on the map. Thirty kilometers away from Helena, the capital of Montana, it is just a town of about 100 people.

He stood up and said to himself, "I'll talk about it tomorrow."

But after walking a few steps, I thought about it and turned back, picked up the phone and dialed it.

It wasn't until someone had been arranged to check whether it was raining that Winston left the office a little tired. Go to the restaurant and dine with the long-awaited lady.

Looking at his wife, who was still sexy and charming, Lampt felt that his wife was still a little old, especially on her face, with a dull complexion and a dull expression.

Maybe Li has an oriental mysterious rejuvenation technique, and the next time we meet, maybe I should ask her for advice.

After dinner, Rumpt talked and laughed with his wife. Then, he received a phone call that made him uncomfortable.

The people below reported that it had been raining lightly since about 16 p.m. in the town of Winston. Until now, the rain has not stopped. The place where it falls is even more unusual, only the rain is inside the town, and three meters outside the town, it is not raining.

"Send someone to keep an eye on it, and report back immediately when the rain stops." Rumpt instructed the men below.

Rumpt was uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable. Linking the heavy rain of the California firefighting with the light rain of Winston made him even more uncomfortable.

Because all of this seems to be really related to that charming Lee.

Today, it seems somewhat unusual.
