Chapter 9: The Sudden Appearance of the Pit

On the way home in the car, the question I just had just had in my head repeatedly. When I got home, my parents were already asleep. I washed up and lay down on the bed, thinking about it and falling asleep. Maybe I'm really tired today.

In the morning, I was woken up by an alarm clock. At half past four in the morning, it was time to get up, and after I got up, I washed up and put on my coat and went out to the vegetable market. Because the vehicles that come to deliver vegetables in the countryside are all in the early morning, and trucks are not allowed to pass in the urban area when it is late, another reason is to put the vegetables in place before the citizens go to the street to buy vegetables. So get to the market very early. I had just arrived, and Fat Man came too, which was already a lot earlier than usual. I asked him why he was so early, and he said, "It's not that you took me to see something jumping off the building last night, but I didn't sleep well all night, and I had nightmares when I closed my eyes." "I don't bother to talk to him. After a while, the car came, unloading the truck. It's not easy to do business when everything is cleaned up. In the morning, there are several restaurants that have food to be delivered. The rest of the bits are basically sold for nothing. It is best to sell out the vegetables of the day on the same day, and you have to collect them if you can't sell them out, especially some vegetables with leaves, such as cabbage, rape, spinach, etc., if they are left overnight, not only reduce the amount, but also sell badly. Usually it is covered with a cotton cloth, and the cotton cloth is sprayed with water to protect it.

It wasn't until the evening that we closed the stall when the dishes were basically finished. The fat man had to invite him to drink, and thanked me for saving Zhang's mother, and I couldn't refuse. Actually, it's normal for the two of us to drink together. It's not bad this time, and I followed it very happily. The two of them drank and bragged until about nine o'clock in the evening, and they were a little dizzy from drinking, so they simply took a taxi home. Flagged down a taxi and got in. But I couldn't walk in front of me as I walked. Seeing that there were police cars and fire trucks, I didn't know what was going on, so I got out of the car to check and came back a few minutes later. It was said that there was a big pothole on the road ahead, and it was bottomless, and several passing cars fell into it. Now the road is closed, and you can only walk around. I also want to go and see, but the crash said that I can't wait, for fear of delaying the money. So I got out of the car and paid for it, and walked straight to the accident site.

When I looked nearby, sure enough, a large pit with a diameter of seven or eight meters appeared in the middle of the road. There were two fire trucks parked next to it, as well as several police cars and ambulances. The cordon was pulled up as usual. There are several leaders inside, one in military uniform, who should be the leader of the firefighters. There are also a few that should be the leaders of the government and the leaders of the hospitals. A few people were discussing something. There were many onlookers on both sides. Maybe it's too late, and there are no reporters this time.

I drank in a daze, looked around and went back to the pit. A height lighting tube was temporarily installed at the edge of the pit. Just as I looked over, I noticed a strange hand with green fur sticking out of the pit. But in the next blink of an eye, the strange hand was gone. I thought to myself that there must be a problem, and at this time, a firefighter in the distance was already dressed in equipment and ready to go down to save people. I hurriedly beckoned to them: "Hey, listen to me, don't go down, there's something in there, it's dangerous." "All eyes were on me. It was like looking at a monster when I realized what I had just done. However, people who drink alcohol are thick-skinned and don't pay much attention to it. But when a few leaders saw that I was gone, they didn't pay attention to me. I had no choice but to watch from a distance.
