Chapter 37: A New Search and Rescue Team
A huge tornado covered the sky and the earth, and the middle part of the tornado was a little unusually slender, but this did not affect the visual impact of this tornado on Ariel.
"This ...... What is it? Ariel couldn't hear her voice anymore, she was too frightened to speak.
But soon, Ariel noticed one more thing, why was this tornado so quiet?
Yes, Ariel initially mistook the sweeping tornado in front of her for a natural disaster tornado, but she finally realized that something was wrong.
As a tornado, it's too quiet; As a tornado, the wind is too slow to rotate.

Saint-Reims Orphanage, 10 a.m.
Lily's suggestion to restart the search and rescue of John's "Sift Patrol" team is questioned by Stephenson, as they first went across the Thames and encountered a huge creature that they couldn't handle.
In this regard, Lily's solution is to use the Dunlun subway line to move as much as possible, and avoid direct contact with those behemoths on the ground, although this may miss some clues from Team John, but if Team John is still active, they will most likely choose to move underground.
It was clear that it was no longer safe to walk on the ground.
Lily also emphasized that this operation is still the same as the first time, will follow everyone's wishes, and does not force anyone to participate in the search and rescue, Stephenson did not continue to say anything.
"Regarding the sudden disappearance of Ariel, I probably know what is going on at the moment, but with our current ability, there is no way to find her, but don't worry, I think she should be safe now."
Of course, Lily is not purely guessing, because Liu Shiqin is a good example, when Lily and the others found Liu Shiqin, she was lying quietly in an empty room of a building, unless she encountered some particularly serious disaster or was targeted by that kind of large creature, otherwise she would definitely be safe.
Thinking of this, Lily remembered the last time she searched for and rescued John's team, she sensed the presence of carrying high-value items through the first floor of the museum where they were located.
According to Miss Liu Shiqin's answer later, as well as her own on-demand coins, it can be proved that Liu Shiqin has not been to the National Art Museum.
So who is it?
After determining the list of people for the second search and rescue, the group disbanded, but Ander stopped Lily.
"Sister, are you really sure that Ariel is safe?" Ander still couldn't feel at ease.
"I'm about 80 percent sure." Lily stroked Ender's hair as a gesture of comfort.
“...... Okay, I believe sister. Ander hesitated for two seconds and didn't ask any further, but then he asked:
"Sister, can I participate in this search and rescue?"
"Oh God, my little Ander, didn't you hear Sandra describe to you what we experienced in our quest the day before yesterday? Believe me, it's very dangerous. ”
"Well, I know, I know it's dangerous." Ander nodded first, and continued without much pause:
"I don't want to lose Ariel and sister you at the same time."
Lily was stunned after hearing this, and said a little helplessly:
"Can you hope for me?"
Ander immediately blushed and waved his hand to say that he didn't mean that, he just wanted to accompany Lily to find John.
Lily looked at Ander for a few more seconds, but Ander didn't flinch, and looked at Lily, her eyes full of determination to go.
With a sigh, Lily asked Ender to go to Aiden and decide on her own equipment choice.
Ander burst into laughter and hurried downstairs to find Aiden.
In the afternoon, Lily set off with a new team, the target was still Dun Lun Station on the other side of the Thames, but this time the team changed slightly, Stephenson chose to quit this time, Ander joined, Dunn and Aiden and Camille were still the same, Sandro became a lot more talkative because of Ender's joining, and happily discussed something with Ender.
This time Lily decided to cross the River Thames with the team from Waterloo Bridge on the South Bank Theatre side and try to get to Holborn Station so they could access the underground line and approach Dun Lun Station from underground.
Because this was an issue that had already been discussed before the departure, there was no objection from everyone.
Ander was a little dumbfounded by the environmental effects of the eclipse, although he had heard Lily and Sandra describe it, but it was not as shocking as what he had seen with his own eyes, the rusty and damaged vehicles, the broken bodies of the building stones that had collapsed due to the intense weathering caused by the erosion, and the streets were no longer smooth and level, potholed and covered with all kinds of debris.
All of this made Ender understand that many of the things Lily and the others mentioned were probably more incomprehensible and frightening than they had described.
Seeing that Ande's expression was not quite right, Sang Zhuo patted Ande's back and told him that he hadn't been able to adapt to it, and this kind of apocalyptic scene would generally only appear in film and television dramas, wouldn't it?
Dunn heard the conversation between the two and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, welcome to the mysterious world. ”
Of course, chatting and chatting, Lily and the others were always on guard, and they did not forget the fact that small animals could also be mutated, and for this reason, Aiden also brought a metal baseball bat as a defense.
"Lily, it's a little weird."
Dunn suddenly approached Lily and whispered.
"Huh?" Lily expressed her confusion in a nasal voice, nothing of concern to her in her perception, and she didn't feel that anyone was staring at them.
"Do you think it's too quiet over here? Forehead...... I mean, there's no bird call. ”
As they walked all the way, there were still some movements from animals such as rats and rabbits, and everyone confirmed that it was safe before moving on, but as soon as Dunn said this, Lily carefully recalled it for a few seconds, and then nodded slowly:
"It seems to be so."
Then Lily increased her voice and said in a voice that everyone around her could hear:
"Now we also need to pay attention to the top of our heads, to pay attention to the sound of birds, and if anyone hears birds, or the sounds of birds, they must explain it immediately."
Everyone nodded.
Lily took out the on-call coin from her chest again, trying to amplify the entropy, that is, the probability, of her safe arrival at Waterloo Bridge, but was surprised to find that this attempt seemed to have failed, and the on-call coin did not give any feedback.
"Is there too many uncontrollable factors?" Lily had such an idea for no reason.
