Chapter 170: Disaster
"Lately, I've been feeling uneasy, even though everyone is happy that the 'new medicine' has been born, and people have overcome the disease for the first time. But it always felt like the new drug came a little suddenly and strangely. ”
"Although everyone's explanation on the Internet is in place, it is true that most of the advanced technological advances lack awareness and understanding before they are really popularized to the public, and the speed of popularization is often very fast, as if it suddenly appeared.
Even when people on the Internet denounced those conspiracy theorists, I also felt very happy.
But I still feel that something is not very calm. Am I obviously not a person in a related profession, but I am too arrogant to try to judge this 'new drug'? ”
In an old community on the outskirts of the city, a young woman frowned, holding a pen and writing a diary, recording her mood and thoughts at the moment.
As she wrote this, her eyebrows furrowed even more and she bit the end of her ballpoint pen.
She considers herself a bit of a clever person, but she rarely expresses her thoughts on the Internet, and only shows some emotions when she writes in her diary here.
"Is it that I have discovered something in my subconscious, but I haven't realized it yet, so I am so anxious?"
“…… Why is it that the hospital is still so crowded after the new drug has been out for several days? It stands to reason that after the special new drug, the speed of diagnosis and treatment in the hospital is faster, and after some of the accumulated patients have been gradually cured, the hospital will gradually become deserted......
Is it my delusion? It's that every hospital is always overcrowded...... It seems that there have been news reports that the world is changing in a direction that is not suitable for human life, and it seems that the number of people who have fallen ill has been increasing recently. Is that why? But why the environment changes, pollution? Physical changes, changes in the sun? A change in the world itself? ”
“…… It seems that the whole world has not been at peace lately...... So is it a climate anomaly? ”
The young woman wrote in her diary and scooped open the dark curtain across the desk,
The curtains shook slightly, revealing the gaps, and the hot and dazzling sunlight shone in through the cracks in the curtains.
Just a short time in the scorching sun made her skin slightly red, and she felt hot.
Closing the curtain again, she touched the phone next to her and looked at the weather.
It's already in the afternoon and close to evening,
Here, just after the middle of winter, barely in the early spring season,
It's still in the mid-thirties.
There was some worry in her eyes, and she felt that there was no place for her heart,
Naturally, I remembered those conspiracy theories that I saw by chance on the Internet.
“…… It looks like we're going to have a drought here, but there are also places on the internet that say they've been experiencing heavy rains lately...... The weather forecast says that it may go down tonight, and hopefully there will be rain to ease the abnormal weather. ”
She continued to write in her diary with a pen,
“…… In addition, the neighbors in the building, everyone seems to be a little angry recently, and the slightest annoyance is noisy, far less kind than before.
Its climate problem? The heat can be irritating, especially when it's not too hot. ”
"Ding Dong ......"
The phone next to it rang with a prompt, but the screen didn't light up.
She picked up her pen, picked up her phone and looked at it.
It was her mobile phone that automatically intercepted a harassing text message, and the number was a virtual number at a glance.
Or it's the type of scam text message from a nearby pseudo base station.
She wasn't interested in clicking on it, but she was also afraid of clicking on the virus in the link.
However, at the beginning of the text message content seen from the interception prompt, she stopped her movements.
"Is the birth of 'new drugs' really the progress of human science and technology? Is the frequency of disease really due to changes in the environment......
These words just cut into the doubts in her heart,
After hesitating, she clicked on the text message.
Then I saw a text message with a photo,
The photo shows a monster.
It's like a pile of transparent water, crawling with eyeballs and flesh, and stretching tentacles with dense mouths.
No...... Not a monster, but a genus that tends to perfection, great and sacred, the great.
Its existence is a kind of truth.
It carries a beauty that transcends all human cognition, and that is where the truth lies.
The room fell silent, and there was some obsession and fanaticism in her eyes.
After a long time,
Continuing to write in her diary full of worries before,
“…… The Lord is the King of all calamities,"
"Everything is a disaster, and everything ends up in disaster."
"The Lord is the truth and the great...... The great king of calamities will bring down the plague of cleansing sins...... Disaster ......"
“…… Dongdong. ”
After another quiet moment,
There was a knock on the door outside the room,
"Kacha ......"
After no one responded, the door was opened.
The two investigators quickly entered the room and headed straight for the bedroom.
The bedroom door is pushed open,
The young woman who had previously written a diary had been seen in the bedroom,
All that was left was a twisted monster in a completely humanoid form, a ballpoint pen wrapped in chaotic flesh, and sat silently on its seat.
“…… Disaster has come......"
I heard a somewhat uncomfortable sound coming from the monster here.
Two investigators cooperated,
With their respective abilities, after spending some time, the twisted monster that was mutated was clear.
One of the investigators stepped forward and cautiously picked up the journal, while the other watched the investigator from the side.
“…… is a person who is naturally high in inspiration. ”
The contents of this diary almost show the process of the man being affected by the 'calamity', or trying to get closer to the 'great truth'.
"Sometimes it's not necessarily a good thing to be overly inspired."
The investigator next to him saw that the investigator was not affected, so he responded,
Then he stepped forward, picked up the mobile phone next to him, and looked at it too.
“…… And then there's the influence of a madman. ”
Glancing at what was already expected on the phone, the investigator said again.
"Hmm."
Even before the two investigators arrived, surveillance had already noticed the source of the text message.
A believer in a catastrophe was a supernumerary person before.
Before the anomaly turned into a catastrophe and completely lost consciousness, a lot of relevant information was passed on through the Internet and various means.
I don't know if it's because of the actions of a believer in the calamity, or if it's just the madness before I was about to die.
Most of them were directly intercepted by the monitoring department of the Heterogeneous Investigation Bureau at the first time, but there were still fish that slipped through the net in a small area.
】
And under the continuous influence of bad luck, these fish that slipped through the net often appear in front of the eyes of the 'right' people.
This is probably a man-made disaster in the 'disaster'.
If this is a war, the time, place, and even the people are not on the side of the Abnormal Bureau.
"Let's go, there's something going on again."
"Hmm."
Putting away the phone and diary, the two investigators temporarily exited the room.
Naturally, someone will take care of the rest of the matter.
……
"Did you get a ticket?"
“…… Not. That damn ...... It seems that there are no tickets. ”
"You dead boy, I'll let you buy the ticket early, buy it early, you have to say that you are not in a hurry, you are not in a hurry, now you are fine, what do you say ......"
A young man stood at the kitchen door, fiddling with a mobile phone,
His mother had been chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and when she heard the young man's words, she was really angry.
"Ahem...... Why don't we, Mom, go back to Grandma's house two days later? ”
"You dead kid...... It's really unreliable to do things, you tell me how late, don't say that you have told your grandmother in advance, this time you go back to your cousin's marriage, how late, you asked your cousin to postpone the wedding for two days and wait for you. ”
It's okay not to say it, but when I say it, the woman is even more angry, and she scolds a bloody dog.
The young man stood there with a flattering smile on his face,
I felt embarrassed and a little confused at the same time.
Obviously, there are no holidays recently, but he watched it two days ago, and there are still a lot of high-speed rail tickets left in Wang'an City.
Why is it only two days, and there are no tickets for each train?
He just habitually delayed for two days, how could he run out of tickets......
"Mom, you said it's not a holiday, how do I know ......"
"Show me ......"
The woman put down the kitchen knife and snatched the phone away.
Then he looked at it, and he frowned as well.
"What, Mom, why don't we buy a plane ticket?"
The young man graciously took the phone back and proposed,
His mother glanced at him, but did not speak.
"Isn't the plane ticket much more expensive...... Don't tell your dad, or you'll be able to clean up. ”
"Mom, in fact, the plane ticket is not necessarily expensive...... Mother...... That, the ticket is gone, too. ”
The young man looked at it, and it was even more embarrassed.
"You dead boy, you say you!"
"Mom...... Let's buy a high-speed rail ticket, buy the first two stops, when the time comes, we will make up the ticket on the car, it's a big deal to stand at two stops, this is there, this is there...... Mom, don't hit ...... yet."
The young man hurriedly said, "It's fast,
I finally bought the ticket, breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped my sweat.
"Mom. Bought it. ”
“…… This time you are clever, next time I will explain the matter to you, you will drag it on me, and don't eat dinner! ”
"I know, Mom, didn't you just didn't expect it, how did you know that the tickets in Wang'an City could be sold out so quickly, and it wasn't a ...... in the capital?"
The young man said, still a little puzzled,
Soon, though, these things were forgotten again.
……
"It's really, it's sunny for a while, rainy for a while, heavy for a while, and light for a while, like a god changing his face."
"That could mean that two dragon kings and bodhisattvas are fighting in the sky."
"Then I hope that the Bodhisattva will win. One rain in the first two days was enough, and the field was wet enough, and if it rained again, the crops in the field would be soaked and rotten. ”
In one village, an old farmer who came back from the field and carried a hoe took shelter from the rain under the eaves of an acquaintance in the same village.
The old man in the house of the acquaintance also sat on the threshold and talked with him,
"Sit down, I see that the rain can't stop for a while......
The old man sitting on the threshold took a roll of dry tobacco in his mouth, squeezed it in his hand, and beckoned to the old farmer who had been standing.
The old peasant looked at the rain outside the eaves again, and the hoe propped up to the side and sat down.
“…… I'm afraid there's a lot of water in the fields, right? ”
The old man rolled his dry cigarette again, looked at the rain outside, and asked.
“…… Just took advantage of the rain to stop for a short while, I went to the field to take a look, and the water was all up to my legs. I dug a gap in the edge of the field, and the water flowed into the river...... But if this rain continues, I am afraid that the current will not flow quickly, and the water in the river will overflow. ”
"So deep?"
The old man listened to the words, and the action of rolling dry cigarettes also paused,
"That's not going to be a big flood."
"It's not like it's going to be flooding, but now I beg God, don't rain anymore, it's raining, and the crops in the fields will be flooded......"
"It's still good for Lao Niu, your family is good, the land has been rented out, and you don't have to worry about this heart of farming."
"The child is afraid that we will be tired, so he said that he would not let us plant ......"
The old man smiled and responded, and then looked at the rain outside the eaves, and did not laugh anymore, with some worry on his face,
"It's really weird this year...... Sometimes I wonder if God won't let us live, so tossed. ”
The old peasant listened to the words, held the hoe in his hand, shook his head, and did not speak.
“…… Why don't you go and sit in the house, have a meal in the house, and then go back. It's windy outside, too, and the rain is coming. ”
"Forget it, I'll stay here for a while, and when the rain is a little lighter, I'll go back. The old woman is still waiting in the house. ”
The old man nodded, and didn't speak again, just stayed by and looked at the rain,
The dry tobacco in his hand was rolled up again, and he put it in his mouth again,
didn't go to order, but shook his head again,
"It's so humid that I've got all the smoke back here."
“…… I saw that the rain was getting a little lighter, so I went back first. ”
"It's still raining, just wait."
"Don't wait, the rain will be heavy again after a while, and I won't be able to walk anymore."
The old peasant stood up and shook his head,
"Then you put this raincoat on, don't get drenched in the rain for a while, and get sick...... We're all getting older. ”
"Thank you then."
The old man shook his head, got up and went to the back of the house to get a raincoat and handed it to the old farmer.
The old farmer said as he dressed,
"I'll bring you the raincoat tomorrow."
"It's okay at any time, I'm not in a hurry to go out, and there are other raincoats in the house when I'm in a hurry."
After approving the raincoat, the old farmer braved the careful rain and hurried away.
The old man stood and watched the old farmer walk away, and then turned his head and watched a flash of lightning pass across the sky.
"Boom ......"
With the deafening continuous thunder, another majestic rain poured down,
There was some anxiety in the old man's eyes.
And the old farmer who hurried back to his home in a raincoat did not run home in one breath,
It seems to be revenge for the brief gap just now,
After a thunderclap of thunder, the wind and rain were stronger than before,
The rain curtain is dense and big, making people unable to see clearly, unable to open their eyes, and even a little out of breath.
The wind howled, making a sharp sound in the wilderness and in the villages.
The wide raincoat was tightly wrapped around the old man by the wind and rain,
The old man faced the storm and couldn't move an inch,
I couldn't help but raise my head in the face of the torrential rain and strong wind, and slightly open my eyes that were wet with rain,
In the face of this crushing city, and the thick dark clouds of the mountains, in the face of the storm,
Suddenly, there was a feeling that the sky was going to die.
He went to the side of the road, in the field, which had been destroyed by the wind and rain. Crops poured into stagnant water,
It's a bit of a heartache.
Fighting the wind and rain again, he barely took two steps forward,
It's just that in the face of this strong wind, his thin body really can't stand steadily,
One stumbled and fell in the rain.
“…… Old man...... Old man Chen...... Old man Chen ......"
“…… Hey...... Oh my God......"
His wife came out to look for him in the rain, and when she saw him, she hurried over.
……
"Ahem......"
Not far from here,
Finally, after a few struggles, the continuous torrential rain in the vast area of the vicinity subsided,
A gust of wind turned into the figure of the Yinhu investigator and fell under the jungle,
Looking at the sky, which had finally cleared a little, Investigator Yinhu paused.
Immediately after, a light fell next to him, and Lao Chen's figure also appeared.
After looking at Yinhu, he didn't speak, and looked at the sky again,
In the case of catastrophe, and the 'sea and storm' are getting closer,
Yin Hu had to fight against the more powerful power, and it was becoming more and more difficult to correct the celestial phenomena.
This time, it was also in Lao Chen at the same time that he used some of the abilities and authority of the 'Sun and Light God',
to overcome the storm of this vast area.
