In the darkness, nothing can be seen, nothing can be heard, and nothing can be touched. I am alone in this silent world, walking forward step by step, as if I am looking for something, or something. I can't do anything, I can only move forward aimlessly.
Until we reach the next bright place
...
———————————————
Qianye Cheng, who was sleeping groggyly, heard bursts of noisy sounds, which were sometimes strong and sometimes weak. He didn't know how long it had passed. He suddenly opened his eyes, and what came into his eyes was pure white, and he was lying flat on his back. Soft bed...
Chiba Cheng woke up instantly and sat up. His right hand touched the chest where the divine light rod was placed, but it touched the gauze. Only then did he realize that the clothes on his upper body were missing.
"You're awake, please be gentle. Burns are very troublesome. If you're not careful, you will leave scars." A clear female voice sounded on the right side. Chiba Cheng turned to look at a young girl wearing a TPC nurse uniform. He was walking over with a tray containing medicines and gauze, and placed the tray on the table next to the hospital bed.
"Mayumi?!" Chiba Makoto recognized this young and beautiful girl at a glance. She was Xincheng's sister. Then this was the TPC's medical tent, but before she fell asleep, she clearly...
"Well, where are my clothes and... other things?" Chiba Cheng only cared about the divine light stick he put in the inner pocket of his coat.
"It's all here." Mayumi bent down and took out a plastic bag from under the camp bed, which contained Chiba Makoto's shirt, keys, and mobile phone.
"Thank you!" Qianye Cheng hurriedly brought it over and breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the magic light stick in his clothes. Only then did he have the intention to observe his surroundings. The tent he was in was about ten square meters and there were four hospital beds. Look at the clothes. They are all injured citizens.
It’s okay if you don’t receive preferential treatment.
Chiba Cheng completely relaxed. It would be terrible if he was given a tent by himself and a professional nurse.
Mayumi performed her duties as a nurse very seriously and informed Chiba Makoto how many pills to take each time and what should be paid attention to to prevent infection of the burned area. If it is serious, she should go to the hospital as soon as possible... In short, the burn on the chest is not It's not serious and doesn't require hospitalization.
After explaining the precautions, he asked Chiba Cheng again if he felt uncomfortable anywhere else.
After Chiba Makoto shook his head, he picked up two pieces of paper and a pen on the tray and asked him to sign after reading it. The content above was probably that he had received free medical services from TPC as a disaster-stricken person. The injury or condition was minor and no further information was needed. treatment and the like.
After signing, Mayumi took one away and left one, and then told him that he could rest for a while. If he was hungry, lunch was being distributed outside. Then he picked up the tray and left politely to go to the next tent.
Without any unnecessary words, the patient and nurse communicate directly and normally.
After she left, Chiba Cheng quickly opened the plastic bag and saw that the magic light stick was still there. Then he carefully put on his clothes and walked out of the tent with medicine to treat burns and anti-infections.
Outside the tent, TPC staff and medical staff were hurriedly walking back and forth, providing help to the affected citizens, not only treating the injured, but also arranging temporary housing and solving food and clothing problems for citizens who had lost their homes.
There is no need to ask anyone, you can find a place to eat just by smelling it. Many people are queuing up to get packed lunches, and then find a place to have lunch on their own, some squatting and some standing, with different postures.
Everyone was talking while eating, and some even cursed loudly the cosmonauts and Ultraman who made them lose their houses. The Kirialodians only burned a gymnasium, and then the Kirialodians and Ultraman Tiga The battle destroyed nearly ten buildings.
Hundreds of people are homeless, and their belongings were buried under the rubble or even burned to ashes. Many people bought their houses and cars with loans. Now everything is in vain, except themselves. Gone.
The extreme sadness makes the food in their hands no longer taste good. They hide in the corner and wipe their tears. They have no place to live and no ability to buy another house. What should they do in the future? They feel that their life in the future will be gloomy and they cannot see. Any hope.
Chiba Cheng listened to the comments and even the suppressed sobs around him. Although his stomach growled with hunger, the food tasted like chewing wax in his mouth. He could understand the feelings of these people. The house he bought with half his life savings turned into a house. Heaping ruins, this kind of heavy blow can knock a strong and optimistic person to the ground, and he has been unable to recover since then.
"I'm sorry!" Qianye Cheng said silently in his heart, hurriedly picked up the lunch box, and hurriedly left the square that was full of frustration, despair, sadness and even resentment. This free meal was extremely heart-breaking and heart-wrenching. Extraordinarily heavy.
Not far from the square were the 'relics' of last night's battle. Some of the buildings that he and the Kirialodians had hit had completely collapsed, while some had mostly collapsed, leaving only the crumbling buildings. A large amount of masonry and rubble has piled up in half of the building, and a large number of construction vehicles are clearing the ruins in preparation for future reconstruction.
These ruins are in sharp contrast with the clean and tidy high-rise buildings around them, like a beautiful city with an ugly scabies, which is particularly dazzling to the eyes.
This is battle, a cruel and ruthless battle of life and death.
Ultraman's battle is not only related to his own survival, but also affects thousands of people. If he can pay more attention during the battle with the Kirialodians and prevent one building from collapsing, he can let Many people were saved from losing their loving homes.
Chiba Cheng sighed slightly and subconsciously raised his hand to touch the divine light stick on his chest. Somehow a sentence came to his mind: "Ultraman is by no means a god. No matter how hard he tries, there are lives that cannot be saved. There are also unattainable ideas.”
"Am I qualified to be the protector of the earth? Can I do it to guide mankind towards the future?" Chiba Cheng murmured in a low voice. In the end, all his words turned into a sigh, and he turned away from the ruins and merged into the crowd.
The intersection near the rubble pile was blocked by traffic police and TPC personnel, but the surrounding roads were still crowded with pedestrians and vehicles. The people affected by the disaster were grieving and it would take a long time to get out.
But others still have to continue their normal lives and work, and welcome tomorrow with enthusiasm and hope.
The world will not be able to function normally because of anyone, and the earth will not stop functioning because of anyone.
On the overpass, a young woman wearing fashionable OL clothing stopped in front of the crowd and stared at the place where the Kirialodians were defeated.
Finally, he glanced in the direction where Chiba Cheng disappeared, then continued to walk forward, and soon disappeared.
