Chapter 25: Chaos Erupts
"If not other countries, who would it be?" muttered the president as he thought with his hands to his chin.
"Could it be a terrorist organization?" but the general spoke.
"Terrorist groups should not have such strong scientific and technological capabilities, and if they had, they would have jumped out to take responsibility for the explosion a long time ago..."
Just when they were at a loss, Dr. Carr's exclamation came from the PA equipment.
Apparently there is a significant discovery.
"Oh my God, you would never have imagined what I had discovered!" Dr. Karl in his hazmat suit blushed, and the excitement even burst out of his eyes.
"You see, a head... A human head!" Dr. Carr pointed the camera at the head.
"Outwardly, he really is a human head, I'm sure, because even dried blood can be seen on it... But how is this possible?!
The high temperature of the explosion can crystallize even the sand and gravel with a very high melting point, but this head is still so complete! We can even see his expression.
It's obscured by sand dunes, but that simple shading doesn't dampen much heat... It's incredible...... Dr. Karl stared at the head in his hand, his words a little incoherent.
At the National Defense Headquarters, all the people were shocked. This includes generals, ministers, and presidents.
They finally realized something.
It was an indescribable feeling, like a sudden epiphany.
"Perhaps, this will be a great discovery that will change human cognition!" a thought sprung up in everyone's hearts.
"Quick, bring it back immediately, now, right now, get out of there. The president's voice was urgent.
For the first time, as president, he was so uneasy.
"Okay, Mr. President, I can't wait to know the secret of this skull now. Dr. Karl carefully tucked the head into a special box that had been prepared.
"Today, everything here will be the top secret of national security, and all people are not allowed to leak half a cent!" the minister issued an injunction.
"Yes. "Everyone answered. There was an inexplicable sparkle in their eyes. Because this momentous discovery has opened a door to their hearts.
"We found a head, but we don't know if there's anything else... Well, let's call them people. Nor do they know their purpose. And there are riots of varying degrees throughout the country, so I propose that the whole country be brought to a state of combat readiness at the first level..."The general spoke.
The president was silent for a moment.
"Let's convene an emergency council," he said slowly.
The solar flare lasted only 5 minutes, and even if you count the time it takes for various devices to restart, it is only a little more than 10 minutes.
However, in just over ten minutes, the whole world was in chaos.
Under huge social pressure, people's emotions cannot be vented for a long time. There are more and more frustrated people, and some of them even feel that they can't survive.
In that case, why not release yourself? This solar flare is more like an introduction.
The city began to become chaotic, and some people took the opportunity to smash and burn, and more and more people joined in. Most of them have nothing and have nothing to fear.
In the city of Huasheng, large-scale riots broke out.
Rioters stormed shops, attacked supermarkets, and even laid siege to the government.
Smoke and fire can be seen everywhere.
Because of the number of rioters, the police simply couldn't control it, and they didn't even dare to take care of it.
In a wealthy neighborhood, a group of rioters has broken through the gates.
The security guards didn't know where to hide for a long time.
The pet dog has been hiding in the kennel and shivering, and in front of it is the uneaten dog food.
"Brothers, my lord, it's these rich people who oppress us every day, and we work so hard to barely support our families, but what about them? look, even their dogs are better off than we are!" shouted a man in the ranks.
"Why?!" he continued.
"Why!" the crowd shouted in unison.
They began to smash, they began to rob, they began to burn.
Upstairs of this home, there is a spacious bedroom.
"Mom, I'm afraid—" A little girl snuggled up in her mother's arms.
"Nini is not afraid... Mom is here. She held her baby in her arms.
"Bah... "The sound of all kinds of breaking outside the door is getting louder and closer.
The little girl's body was trembling faintly.
"Mom—" her eyes began to turn red as she struggled to look up at her mother.
"Nini, it's all bad people outside, don't make a sound..."Mom's voice was very soft and gentle.
"Whew!" just then, someone slammed the door.
"Ahh
"There's someone here!" shouted the man outside the door.
There was a sound of footsteps, and it was clear that many people had rushed over.
"What to do?" someone asked.
"Slam the door!" was clearly the voice that encouraged everyone at the beginning.
"Haven't we gone too far?" said someone weakly, as if his heart was weak. When the inner irritability and dissatisfaction are vented, the inner heart will gradually become peaceful.
"What's the time? Don't you know how they usually squeeze us? Smash!" the voice was fierce.
"Bah... Bang..."The door was still smashed. Several people poured in.
She held her child in her arms and leaned against the window.
"Don't come here!" she said, holding a fruit knife in her hand and pointing at the group.
"Mommy...", the little girl was crying, tears streaming down her face.
The voice, the man, to be exact, his eyes lit up.
"Yo, I'm in good shape... , brothers, blessed are we, hahaha..."He was laughing like a devil.
Others' eyes grew red.
The eyes covered by messy hair clearly reveal despair and tragedy. She pulled her child behind her.
"As long as you obey me, I'll keep your child fine, hehe..." he smiled, his eyes full of darkness.
Her hands began to tremble, even the knife she had pointed at him.
If it were you? What would you choose?
The knife shook more and more, and finally, it slipped from the slender hand.
"Hahahaha," he smirked and leaned over step by step.
"You promised to let my daughter go—" she stared at him.
"I agreed, but my brothers didn't say yes, I don't know, hehe..."
Is it the evil thoughts in the hearts of the people, or the devil has become a man!
At this moment, with so many people present, none of them stood up to stop it.
