"Let's see what happens here."
After the flood came, Li Sa relaxed. She took off the two layers of raincoat and rain boots that were one size too big, just like she was at home, and prepared to go to the bathroom to solve personal problems and clean up.
Li Tianya said in surprise: "You don't seem worried at all. You are adapting well to the natural disaster world."
Li Sa opened his eyes and made up lies: "I have experienced disasters such as heavy rains and floods in the real world. I know if there is water and electricity, use it as soon as possible, and if there is a place to rest, I can rest as soon as possible."
With such a reminder, Li Tianya also felt that he should take a shower and use the toilet while the water was available. It's a pity that this apartment only has one bathroom, and Li Sa occupied it first.
The river located upstream is just northwest of the villa community, separated by two blocks. The city as a whole is on higher ground on that side.
The same is true for the villa community. The terrain in the park gradually becomes lower from northwest to southeast. The clubhouse and lake are located in the southeast area of the community. They are artificially landscaped and are the lowest-lying areas in the community.
After the river burst its banks upstream, the water surged along the road, possibly washing away something in the process. More water flowed in, bringing with it a lot of debris. Some of the harder objects hit the weak walls of houses, causing houses to collapse along the way, causing more damage.
The water was fast and violent, large in volume and very fast, and the rain in the sky seemed to be deliberately causing trouble. It seemed to be raining harder overhead in the villa area. Just now, I could still see people clearly within a few meters of being outdoors. Now I couldn't see anything outside at all through the window. I could only hear the sound of water getting louder and closer.
The unit doors of the bungalow are all made of glass, and there are many floor-to-ceiling glass installed on the south-facing side. Usually the public area in the foyer of the bungalow is very bright, and you can enjoy the green landscape of the park. Now facing the raging floods, these glasses have become a weak point compared with the solid concrete walls.
The glass quickly shattered under the impact of the hard garbage in the water. The height of the flood peak has reached under the second-floor window sill, and it cannot be blocked by the sandbags on the first floor.
Li Sa couldn't see the details downstairs at this time, but found that the water should have broken through the first floor and passed through the building. The whole building seemed to be shaking.
At this time, there was movement on the balcony.
Li Tianya quickly opened the balcony door to take a look, and found that it was Zhou Ming who had come back from outside. He climbed directly onto the wall and climbed upstairs from the balcony into the room. He was completely soaked. If he had been a few steps later, he would have been submerged in the water downstairs.
Zhou Ming said: "I opened the gate by the lake, and the lake water there has begun to drain into the underground river."
Li Sa secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Zhou Ming had gone to open the gate to release the flood. She asked: "Where is the boat on the lake? The boat is tied to a chain. The water is too deep and it may be submerged."
Zhou Ming smiled and said, "You are quite careful. I have already placed the boat at a high place."
"Water! So much water!" Li Tianya looked down from the balcony, his voice trembling.
When Zhou Ming came back just now, the water outside only reached the second floor. Now the water level has gradually reached the third floor. The two bungalows were not on the main channel for water to pass through. The main reason was that the water flow hit the building. After the crest of the wave passed, the water level was still on the second floor and had not yet risen to the third floor.
However, the waves were rolling and the wind was blowing, and the balconies on the third and fourth floors were already wet. More construction debris was rushed over and hit hard on the outer wall of the bungalow.
Everything on the ground nearby, whether people or cars, had long been washed away by the water. It's useless even if you know how to swim. There are so many foreign objects in the water that can easily injure someone.
From their side, they could clearly see that the whole building of the bungalow next door suddenly went dark.
Someone in the 404 live broadcast room sent out a series of alarm symbols:
[Oh my God, this is the first day of heavy rain and flooding. Is it so scary? If it was still downstairs, it must have been washed away. ]
[Fortunately, the broadcaster is on the fourth floor. ]
[The water level is so high, can the clubhouse handle it? ]
[The large pits in the ground are not visible, they have been filled up by water. ]
[The people who fell before and the search and rescue team probably have no hope of survival. ]
[Is the one who bet that the clubhouse is safe still there? Lose money! ]
Li Sa saw an extra 1,000 yuan in his account. Could it be that some viewers really accepted their bet and gave a reward of 1,000 yuan, but didn't even post a barrage? Did they feel it was embarrassing to lose? It's actually quite good to tip secretly. As long as the money is in place, the form doesn't matter.
The two bungalows next door suddenly went dark. There must be a fault in the water line, and the whole building tripped and lost power.
In Building 1, where Li Sa is currently located, there was no power indoors just now. After the flood, it is estimated that the public area has also tripped and lost power again. If she and Jiang Qin had taken the elevator upstairs, they might have been trapped in the elevator or in danger of falling.
There were footsteps coming from the stairwell. It should be that the property employees on the second floor had moved up. After all, the floods passing by were so ferocious, how could people not be afraid when they saw them?
A few minutes later, Li Sa's communication rang.
It was Director Li, who said anxiously: "Xiao Li, are you still upstairs?"
"Here, director, are you all okay?" Li Sa asked with concern.
Director Li said: "Thank you for reminding everyone just now. The water has almost flooded the third-floor platform, and it doesn't look like it is going to recede. We can't contact the rescue team either."
"Don't worry, they are all professional rescuers and can respond to emergencies faster than us. I'll ask Jiang Mei how it is over there. If they go to the second floor in the club, it should be fine."
"The terrain over the clubhouse is low and a bit overhanging. Unless someone can open the sluice and use the underground river to release the flood."
Li Sa did not say that someone had already opened the gate, but calmly reassured him: "This wave of water will not be able to fill such a big lake. Maybe someone at the clubhouse has opened the gate."
In addition to those from the cleaning department, there are also a few security guards left at the club. They are all old property employees and know about the water gate. There were emergency plans in the past that taught them how to open the gate. Director Li could only hope that those few employees would have this kind of awareness. And now that the water is so deep, it's obviously not safe to find someone to open the gate elsewhere.
Director Li is more concerned about the safety of the owners in the entire villa area: "Xiao Li, ask over there at the clubhouse. Can you see the surrounding situation? The clubhouse building is relatively high. If the owners call for help, they can evacuate there."
It's raining so hard outside that ordinary people can't see even a little further away. Only players whose physical attributes have been strengthened to a certain extent can see distant situations without the help of equipment.
"Okay." Li Sa responded without making any more suggestions.
Director Li hung up and contacted the rescue team. There had been various calls on his mobile phone before, including some old owners urging him to arrange for repairs. Now it has run out of power and automatically shut down. He dialed Jiang Qin's employee communication.
Li Sa hung up on Director Li and called Jiang Mei again, but unfortunately no one answered. Her heart couldn't help but tighten. Could it be that Jiang Mei was unfortunately killed in a similar emergency in her previous life?
