Chapter 2: A Duet of Fate
It's been five days since the massive earthquake in the northeastern part of the Shenlong Empire, and the earthquake has almost completely destroyed the transportation arteries between the cities, making the rescue team move extremely slowly.
In the epicenter area, no other sounds can be heard except for the hoarse crows of crows.
The earthquake struck just after 3 a.m., and almost all of the people died in their sleep. It is difficult to say whether the remaining people who have not died are lucky or unlucky, because what awaits them may be a rescued new life, or it may be a process of waiting for death that is more cruel than death.
The roar of cars shattered the deathly silence of the epicenter.
By the time the rescue team arrived at the village with an unknown epicenter, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone wanted to clear the collapsed houses and trees as soon as possible, so that the rescue convoy could reach the last town in the epicenter before nightfall.
At this moment, a barely audible cry for help reached the ears of everyone in the rescue team.
As a medical officer of the team, Sun Xiaotian's first reaction was not to rescue, but to think that he had auditory hallucinations again. As a young girl who had just graduated from medical school, Sun Xiaotian had seen more dead bodies in the past five days than she had ever seen in her life. Sun Xiaotian, who thought he was used to seeing corpses, was still turned over in his stomach by all kinds of stumps and broken arms and fragments of internal organs in the past ten days.
A few days ago, she saw a woman in the hospital who had been stoned to death in childbirth: the baby's head had been squeezed out of the mother's body, but suddenly there was an earthquake. And when her eyes swept over the baby, she seemed to hear the whisper of the half baby,
"Why do you have to die when you are just reborn in the human world... I am not reconciled ... ”。
That terrifying scene made Sun Xiaotian faint on the spot. It wasn't until the staff around her gave her first aid that she slowly woke up after a while.
After Sun Xiaotian woke up, he immediately confided in his colleagues around him about the situation, but what he got was sympathy.
The leader of the rescue team patted her on the shoulder and told her to rest more, and if she couldn't, she would take a ride back when there was a return car. . .
Since then, she always felt that there was a child calling for help, so much so that even she wondered if she was really hallucinating under too much mental pressure as the team leader said.
Just now, Sun Xiaotian seemed to hear a child calling for help. As she fell into a stunned state again, a warrior sped over from the rubble in front of her, shouting as she ran
"Doctor Sun, I found a boy about 10 years old in front of me, he is still breathing, please take a look!"
When Sun Xiaotian heard this shout, he immediately came to his senses. She realized that she hadn't just had auditory hallucinations, but had really found a survivor!
So, she immediately didn't say a word, and subconsciously walked forward quickly. After crossing the crowd, the scene in front of her made her feel an inexplicable sadness from her heart:
A woman was lying in a pool of blood, one foot crushed by a falling cement block, and the wound partially exposed the white bones. Judging from the dryness of the bloodstains and the corpse spots on her back, she should have died of exhaustion 2 days ago.
In the woman's arms lay a boy with an empty bottle of mineral water in one hand. The boy has passed out now, and it seems that the cry for help just now is his last strength...
。。。
There was a loud rumbling sound, and the whole heaven and earth lost all their light. Instinctively frightened, his mother's familiar voice immediately reassured him.
His mother told him that there had just been an earthquake, but there was no need to be afraid because someone would come to their rescue soon.
But after a long time, no one came to rescue them.
All around him was the deathly silence and the suffocating smell of blood.
The lingering smell of blood and the seemingly endless darkness still made the boy cry tormentedly.
But his mother didn't let him cry and kept comforting him.
In order not to make him afraid, his mother kept talking to him and singing his favorite songs.
Until my mother's voice was hoarse, the first thing she did was to let him drink water.
Until the bottle of water was drunk, my mother didn't take a sip.
Tired and hungry, he fell into a stupor. And when he was half-asleep and half-awake, he only heard his mother say softly to him: Tian'er, you must live well. With my mother's share, I can live better.
Jingle bells, jingle bells...
A rapid phone ringing woke Wang Yuetian from his sleep.
At this time, Wang Yuetian's futon had already been kicked open, and his whole body was already sweating profusely because of his dreams, and the sweat flowing down his cheeks mixed with tears actually wet half of the pillow.
It's the same dream again!!
Wang Yuetian turned sideways and looked at the lilac fluorescent clock placed at the head of the bed, and the clock showed that the time was three o'clock in the morning. When he picked up the phone and saw the caller ID on the phone, he immediately shook his head vigorously.
Before he could hand the phone to his ear, the voice of the other party on the phone had already come:
"Director Wang, Director Wang, it's a big deal, it's a big deal!!
"Something's going on, calm down and speak slowly. ”
Wang Yuetian heard his assistant's overly excited tone on the other end of the phone, realizing that something might be happening, but he still tried to calm his assistant down. But the assistant, who has always been very obedient, obviously couldn't control his emotions this time, and only got to the point after yelling for a long time.
"Subject 1!! Subject 1 rushed out of the laboratory!! the current energy value is approaching 100, and now it is wreaking havoc, and the 18th floor is about to be breached!!"
"What!"
After listening to the assistant's words, Wang Yuetian jumped up from the bed.
Subject One!
"How is it possible!5 hours ago, its energy value was only 0.093, how could it grow so fast!" Wang Yuetian shouted into the phone segment.
At this time, if someone sees Wang Yuetian's honor, they will definitely wonder if the Wang Yuetian in front of them has been faked. Because Wang Yuetian in people's impression is always a gentle and elegant, unhurried image. Even when he won the Nobel Prize, Wang Yuetian behaved calmly. At this time, such a gaffe, Wang Yuetian is probably the first time.
"I don't know what caused Subject One's energy level to multiply in one minute!
Now that it's almost killed all eighteen floors, the higher-ups must have found out by now! The clone can't be hidden, we'll be shot!
What should I do, Director Wang!!"
Wang Yuetian couldn't care about the assistant on the other end of the phone anymore roaring like crazy, he hung up the phone directly with a bang!
