Chapter 254: Above

In the mayor's office of the Motu City Hall building.

A man who is nearly middle-aged frowns, quickly flipping through the documents that he has not had time to deal with today, and from time to time there is a sound of paper turning pages, as the mayor of the frontline city of the reconstruction district, he is under great pressure every day. In just half a year after taking office, he is only thirty-five years old, he already has deep forehead lines on his forehead, and he has lost a few laps of weight, and the small belly that he developed before the end of the world has disappeared without a trace.

The windows of the entire office were closed by a thick layer of black paper, which looked a little stuffy, even if the electric fan was blowing, it still made him sweat. There is a huge shortage of electricity in the reconstruction area, even as the mayor of a city, it is impossible for him to get air conditioning, as a luxury for human enjoyment, the production line of air conditioning has long been discontinued.

From time to time, he made comments in the document, when the ringtone of the mobile phone rang without warning.

He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was the director of the information monitoring center, his body tensed instantly, he quickly glanced at the wall clock on the wall, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, this time was already the time to get off work, he sighed in his heart, and had a bad premonition, at this time he called, I am afraid that there was an accident again.

Not long after he was connected, his face became extremely ugly.

"That's your answer, why didn't you detect the omen before?" Mayor Wu roared in a low voice.

……

"This is not the first time, I don't want to listen to explanations, you have the ability to talk to the dead victims! What I need is a guarantee! He irritably pulled the buttons of his shirt. Mayor Wu vented for a while and hung up the phone, but he also knew that this was not to blame the security monitoring center, there was really no better technology to monitor the underground.

……

"Secretary Zhang, it seems that you have also received the situation. Now the neighborhood has been cordoned off, and recently the guards have set off and sent out! Mass evacuation is being organized as much as possible! He called the secretary of the municipal party committee again.

He hung up the phone, felt a parchy in his mouth, picked up the teacup and wanted to drink water, only to find that the teacup was already empty. He felt irritable for a while, if it was half a year ago, this teacup would have been scrapped a long time ago, but in the past six months, he didn't know how many times he had experienced such a thing, and he had already learned to self-regulate.

After a long time, he put the teacup back in its place and continued to review the papers.

However, not long after he sat down, the phone rang again, he took out his mobile phone and saw that it was still the director of the security monitoring center, he frowned, but he still quickly connected.

"What! Not one, but a group, how many in total? Mayor Wu said loudly, his face full of disbelief.

……

"Have you notified Secretary Zhang and Master Liu?" Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

At this time, there was a sudden loud noise not far away, and the windows were smashed by the splashing of rubble, clanging, and even the ground shook slightly, and the door was knocked open, it was his secretary.

"The mayor is not safe here, we must evacuate to the safe house immediately." The secretary said with a serious face.

"No, as mayor, I have to stay here, you go out first." Mayor Wu hesitated for a moment and immediately refused. Although he was a little nervous in his heart, his face remained calm, as the mayor of a city, at such a critical moment, if he took the initiative to escape, there was no doubt that his political life would be over, and if the circumstances were serious, he could not even save his life.

Now is not a time of peace, and troubled times are used to re-enact. As far as he knows, there are no less than 1,000 cadres who have been disposed of for dereliction of duty in the past few years, and some of them are far higher than him.

"Then I'll stay here to protect you." The secretary said expressionlessly.

Mayor Wu nodded, his heart was slightly relieved, his secretary was not just a secretary, he was a powerful evolutionary of the fourth level, and ordinary mutated creatures were like killing chickens and sheep to him.

Then, the phone barely stopped, he quickly gave various orders, and I don't know when, the gunfire outside the window had been loud, and there was a thick smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

Unlike other cities, Frontline Cities are one step away from the real battlefield and are the last protective barrier in the reconstruction area.

In addition to a variety of powerful defensive weapons, the city also has a whole division stationed for a long time, if you use heavy artillery regardless of damage, not to mention a dozen desert crypt worms, even if it is a small and medium-sized beast tide, it can be easily solved.

However, such an order can only be issued as a last resort, and it itself carries political responsibility.

At this time, a shell fell heavily not far from the city government, making a deafening explosion, the dust of the wooden building shook off, and Mayor Wu's ears were blown up, and he secretly clenched his fist, and his palms were already wet.

But he is still motionless, he has always considered himself a lucky person, when the fangs just appeared in the last days, he and his wife and children were traveling in Tibet, but when he returned, because of the flight problem, where he was stranded, this abnormal event, so that he was keenly aware of the danger, he asked for sick leave from the unit, and encouraged his wife to do the same, and then stayed in Tibet for a long time.

At the beginning of the last days, Tibet was undoubtedly safe, and when other provinces fell, Tibet hardly changed much, and when Tibet really became dangerous, the Great Migration began, and he smoothly squeezed into the first train of the Great Migration.

And his career also began to run, due to a large number of gaps in various positions, giving him a huge opportunity, from the deputy section level cadre before the end of the world, in just two years, he has become a cadre at the department level.

At this time, he suddenly remembered the notice he received from his superiors today, and his heart moved, he turned to his secretary and asked, "Have the survivors I told me about today arrived?" ”

The secretary shook his head: "No news received. ”

Mayor Wu frowned slightly: "It shouldn't be possible, I was notified that they will arrive tonight." ”

"Maybe it's a little later, maybe it's an accident, who are they?" The secretary said disapprerovingly, thinking that he had met a relative of which family, such a situation had happened from time to time in the past, and it was not until recently that there were fewer survivors, and it gradually became extinct.

"It's a telegram from above, and you're an evolutionary like you, and it's said to be extremely powerful." Mayor Wu said without concealment, the secretary is originally a relatively close relationship, and he will lose both and prosper, not to mention that he is still an evolutionary, and he can save his life at a critical time.

The secretary's heart froze, and his face became serious, maybe the fourth-level evolutionary was already extremely powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, but there were more than 10,000 people with this strength in the entire reconstruction area, not to mention tens of thousands. And the evolutionary who can make an impression on it must at least be level five, and maybe even level six.

"I'll check it out!"
