Li Sa rushed back to the bungalow from the club in the rain, and said to Zhou Ming: "The two people from the police station left in a hurry, maybe something happened on the South Road."
Li Tianya had been browsing online news just now, and finally found the relevant news. It was not officially reported yet, but a short video uploaded by passers-by nearby. This made him shocked and said: "It seems that a high-rise hotel has collapsed, and there are people appearing around it." There is a big hole in the ground, similar to what we have here."
"Which hotel?" Li Sa's voice trembled.
Li Tianya said: "I have seen the Golden House Hotel before when I checked the information. It is said that it was only built in the past two years. It is very new and the interior is decorated with splendor and splendor."
Zhou Ming asked: "It's the high-rise hotel you mentioned before, right?"
Li Sa nodded: "That's it. On the first day at the club, I heard from the owners that the houses in the villa area were short, and they were worried about it. They wanted to stay in a big hotel in the city center. Some people said that the hotel looked good, but actually cut corners. , there were quality problems. Later, these owners went to other hotels and never moved back to the villa area."
"Now it seems that those who did not stay at the Golden House Hotel have escaped." Zhou Ming watched the short video again.
This video is of a hotel that has begun to collapse. In an instant, it turned from high-rise buildings to rubble. It really turned into a pile of construction debris like tofu. The time is short. If there are people living in the hotel, it may be too late to escape by jumping off the building.
Because the hotel itself was large, smoke and dust flew everywhere when it collapsed, covering a large area around it. The surrounding ground cracked and exposed deep pits. Even if you jumped out of the window and fell to the ground, it would be difficult to get up immediately to avoid the things falling from above. It is also possible to fall directly into the pit and never climb back up.
Unless you are an expert whose physical attributes have been strengthened to the point that you can fly over walls and walls, and jump directly to other buildings further away from the window, the chance of survival is very slim. Even if those who were crushed under the rubbish did not die on the spot, they might not be able to survive while waiting for the rescue team to come to the rescue in the rain.
Li Sa remembered that in the previous life, the hotel collapsed two weeks later, and the extent of the damage was not so complete, at least it was not accompanied by ground subsidence. She was in the middle of the floor, close to the evacuation stairs. When she noticed the building shaking, she only grabbed the bag containing the terminal, and without thinking about anything else, she opened the door and ran downstairs as fast as she could.
It was raining very heavily that day. She didn't bring any rain gear, and people were running away in front and behind her. She was dragged out of the hotel. Just as she was about to take a breath to see if it was an earthquake, she saw the entire building collapse. She remembered clearly that only more than half of the building collapsed, and part of it was still on the ground. There were living people in the half of the building that did not collapse, and they fled to the balcony outside the window to try to save themselves.
But then floods surged down the streets, turning several nearby streets into rivers. She hugged a large plastic box and floated on the water, then lost consciousness.
"Brother Zhou, where did you put the boat? I think there will be another flood after the ground collapses and the building collapses." Li Sa gave a conclusion.
Zhou Ming said: "Don't worry, I'll take the boat out when the water reaches the window. There's no rush."
He didn't say that his storage item had a limit on the number of times it could be used. Try not to take the supplies until the time came, otherwise it would be a waste of times.
"Brother Zhou, someone posted a video. The title said that there is another embankment breach. I haven't been able to open the content." After Li Tianya said this, he suddenly realized, "Is the network signal interrupted?"
Li Sa said: "I saw on the map that there is a large signal tower on the south side of the road. If the ground there collapses, it is likely to affect the transmission of telephone and network signals."
Zhou Ming was also sure that the phone and Internet communication were currently disconnected, so he ordered: "You two should charge the rechargeable things first, and fill all the things that connect water with water. If there is a flood, see where the water rises. If It’s really getting to the point where you can even row boats on the fourth floor, so we’re going to change places next week.”
Li Sa and Li Tianya quickly got to work. In fact, they usually have the habit of charging various things and replenishing the stored water in time, so that they can continue to survive in 402 when there is a water or power outage in the future. So there isn’t much that needs to be done at the moment, just checking for deficiencies and filling them in.
Li Sa paid attention and used the employee walkie-talkie to inform Director Li about the embankment collapse and the disconnection of the network, and asked him to remind employees to avoid danger in time.
After all, according to the experience of the previous life, after the collapse of the Golden House Hotel, there is a high probability that floods will flow through the villa area. The outer wall of the villa area has only been repaired briefly, and there is still a huge sinkhole at the west gate that has not been filled. The villa area is likely to encounter the danger of being flooded again.
Zhou Ming frowned when he saw the sudden increase in the number of player deaths in the system announcement. There is no doubt that the difficulty of this mutated natural disaster world is not low. More than a hundred players died on the first day of the second week. There are less than 800 people left, and we don’t know how long we can sustain it.
It is very possible that the two subsidences were not natural disasters, but were artificially caused by advanced players using props. Crazy Zhao has such strength and ability.
The problem is that there are many natives of this world in the Golden House Hotel. Does Crazy Zhao even care about the lives of those people? What are the constraints of his mission? If it wasn't Crazy Zhao, then who or what force it was, it couldn't have been done by an indigenous criminal organization in this world.
When the power bank was connected to the power supply and several spare empty barrels began to store water, Zhou Ming picked up the telescope and looked in the direction of the Golden House Hotel.
Through the rain curtain, ordinary people's eyesight could not see that far, but he could.
The outline of the hotel that originally stood there has disappeared, and an abnormal sound of water can be heard from further away. Floodwaters were rushing down the streets.
It had rained for seven consecutive days, and the drainage function of the municipal pipe network had reached its limit. The culverts were also blocked with a lot of debris and there was no time to clean them. The water cannot flow down, so it can only rush on the road. The impermeable asphalt road turned into a river bed, and the power of the water had nowhere to vent. It carried a large amount of garbage and crashed into the houses along the street, wreaking havoc. It followed the terrain, carrying more garbage and rushing to low-lying areas.
The villa area happens to be on the only way for the flood to go downstream. Fortunately, the overall terrain is relatively high, like a sandbank on a wide river.
It's a pity that only two bungalows in the villa area are taller, and the other buildings are only three stories high. The last time the floods passed, the water level reached the second-story windows at its highest. Many people's homes had broken glass. They were barely repaired this week. Some people used wooden boards and plastic boards to block them first. I'm afraid it will be difficult to withstand the floods and the defenses will be broken again. .
This week, Li Sa went to work on time during the day to earn a living, and Zhou Ming and Li Tianya were not idle either. They bought some supplies every day, some of which had to be delivered, and some of which had to be driven by their own cars. With Li Tianya's money-making ability, they rushed to add money and did not encounter many obstacles for the time being. They also found another place to stay and stocked up on supplies. A small backup generator had also been moved there.
Zhou Ming told them that after each world ends, the funds will be cleared, and it is useless to have any remaining money in the terminal. It is better to spend it reasonably and turn it into supplies to save lives. I am afraid that the three villas in Area C of the Cunning Rabbit Three Cave will no longer be used. It is inevitable to find a place to stock up and use them as a safe house.
Li Sa did not take the initiative to ask where the place was. Zhou Ming said that he would tell them later, because he was afraid that he would have to go boating to go there.
A few minutes later, Li Sa stood by the window, no longer using binoculars. He could see with the naked eye that the flood was coming again.
