Chapter 81: Strange Mist
Guan Tianxiang has watched the same soap opera on TV station N times, but he has not encountered it in daily life, at most he has heard it once or twice on the evening news at half past 6 o'clock. Looking at the gray fog outside the window, Guan Tianxiang naturally guessed that the building was on fire.
The gray fog made Guan Tianxiang unable to see the opposite building and the road clearly, and the visibility was extremely low, as if they had arrived in heaven.
"Damn! It's on fire! Aren't we leaving? Mao jumped to his feet and hit a nearby display case, causing several delicate GUNPLAs to fall to the ground. Remember Jerry had warned them that whoever touched those Gundams would be torn to pieces.
Guan Tianxiang thought that fighting cattle across the mountains should not be counted as "touching", but I hope so.
"What the fuck is going on!" The cedar kept spinning in circles as if out of control.
Kenny, who has always been calm, also shouted, "Is it on fire that the elevator stops?" ”
"Damn, aren't you leaving?" Ah Mao had already opened the iron door in a panic and wanted to run out, Guan Tianxiang was also about to follow, but Mei Tao grabbed his hand hard: "Wait! Don't you think the whole thing is unreasonable? The frightened Ah Mao was stunned for a while, and became irritable: "Do you care if it's okay now?" ”
As if he had an idea, the cedar suddenly stopped circling and nodded violently with an exaggerated amplitude: "By the way, why is there no smoke in the corridor, only smoke outside the window?" ”
Mei Tao pondered, his ring finger trembled, and he rarely frowned: "If it is really on fire, there should be smoke inside and outside, not outside the window, so it is unlikely that there will be a fire." ”
"Could it be that someone is burning something on the road?" Shi Mi frowned.
"What are you cooking, barbecue?" Mao was still excited, but he had clearly given up the idea of rushing to escape.
"It doesn't matter what it burns, it's not on fire." Mei Tao still pretended to be calm, stood up, walked to the kitchen, and opened the non-freezing refrigerator: "Damn, only Lang Jianmei tea is left." ”
Where does the smoke come from? Guan Tianxiang approached the window and looked out.
Nothing to see.
Shi Mi's voice came from behind Guan Tianxiang, and his tone was a little excited: "Great, I have something to post on the Internet." With that, he took out his phone and played with it.
At this time, Guan Tianxiang opened the window even more, and the window that was only a little open just now was pushed out. Smoke poured into the house, and when Guan Tianxiang saw this, he immediately planned to close it, but hesitated.
Because, Guan Tianxiang heard a sound from downstairs.
Just now, because the windows were almost closed, they couldn't hear the outside sound.
However, now Guan Tianxiang can hear it clearly.
It was a noisy human voice.
Guan Tianxiang looked at his watch, at 2:46 a.m., the road should be empty, and at most there were only one or two people wandering the streets. But now Guan Tianxiang heard footsteps from dozens of pedestrians.
What's going on? What attracts so many people on the road?
At this time, the others also seemed to see through what Guan Tianxiang was hesitating, Mei Tao hurriedly walked over and closed the window: "Don't let the smoke run in, we need to breathe oxygen." ”
No matter what Guan Tianxiang did, it was a wrong decision.
Mei Tao, the pride of the sky, always makes the best decisions, and Guan Tianxiang, an only man with no opinions, is better obedient.
"Why are there so many people out there?" Kenny walks over as well.
The keen Mei Tao thought for a while and shook his head.
Wave after wave, Shi Mi shouted: "The network can't be connected, Jerry's network is so rubbish." ”
"I have 4G." Kenny took out his phone and pressed it a few times on the long, wide screen, dumbfounded, "Why is there no service?" ”
"No service" means that there are no network-connected services here.
That is, they are not able to communicate with the outside world. said that it was too late, and Mei Tao had already put the mobile phone to his ear, pretending to be. After waiting for more than ten seconds, he shook his head: "The phone has not been connected for the time being." ”
"Fuck, why is there no internet all of a sudden!" Mao was flustered to the top, and kicked the Gundam who had just fallen to the ground in the direction of the window, and the Gundam couldn't stand the cruel abuse, and most of them were shattered.
Guan Tianxiang thought that if Jerry came back, the next person to be crushed should be Ah Mao.
Guan Tianxiang pulled out his mobile phone, and the upper left corner of the mobile phone also displayed "no service".
"Now, at this time, we need to think calmly and see what is going on." Mei Tao sat on the ground, his tone flat, "Why don't we go in a circle?" ”
Everyone formed a circle, and Mei Tao continued: "Do you think that the whole thing can no longer be explained by common sense?" ”
"How?" Shi Mi looked at Mei Tao, aiming at the movement of the ring finger.
Mei Tao closed his eyes: "Think about it, water and power outages can be accidents, but what about the smoke outside?" And what about those mysterious footsteps? Was it because of an accident? If it was an accident, what kind of accident would it be? As I've said, this situation definitely doesn't look like a fire alarm, so what would make such a big smoke? ”
"And what is your conclusion?" Shanmu made a gesture to ask Mei Tao to continue.
"I have a bold assumption, but it's unlikely, it's ridiculous." Mei Tao wiped his nose.
Everyone did not force him to continue, but each was pondering, more correctly in a trance.
"Why don't you call 119?" Kenny suggested.
"You can try." Shi Mi dialed 119 and put it to his ear.
For example, the plot of the suspense novel is not much worse, and Shi Mi's phone cannot be dialed.
Cedar took a deep breath: "We are abandoned. ”
"Abandon your mother, I want to leave!" Mao broke down and shouted.
Guan Tianxiang also began to regret it.
If Guan Tianxiang was willing to listen to his mother at that time, and went home as soon as the graduation dinner was over, he would have been a filial only man, then he would not have to experience the strange events now.
Guan Tianxiang lowered his head, annoyed.
"What should we do, shall we continue to wait, or shall we go first?" Cedar stood up solemnly.
If they leave now, they might be able to find Jerry in time, and they might even have left this place for the hell.
However, Guan Tianxiang is still not good at expressing his opinions.
Mei Tao made a gesture to stay: "First of all, Jerry thinks that we have his reasons for staying, we should wait for him to come back to meet us, and I believe that it is safest to stay here, with the efficiency of the Bay Area government, there should be firefighters on the way now." ”
They will soon be rescued. Or, there is no disaster at all, everything is just an imaginary nightmare.
This is Guan Tianxiang's current thoughts. Just for now.
"And Jerry didn't come back? Or...... He can't come back? Shi Mi's words were intermittent, permeating the panic in his heart.
Jerry has been missing for a long time, and his journey is believed to be not all smooth sailing. However, if the extraordinary Jerry really encounters something long, the thrill must be extraordinary.
"Well, we'll wait here until dawn. By 6 o'clock, if Jerry hadn't come back yet, we'd go out and see what was going on. Mei Tao made a confident decision, saying that it was a "decision" because everyone had no objections.
In times of panic, people prefer to blindly trust the wise.
After receiving a response from the crowd, they replied that they were silent. None of them were in the mood to think about light topics to talk about anymore, and even Ah Mao put down the mobile phone in his hand.
They were given a brief moment of peace until they heard a sound.
At 3:14 a.m., a phone rang from inside the house.
