At the same time, Columbia University!
"Vera, this is so ridiculous, really, our actions are so stupid and ridiculous!"
On the lawn in front of the library, Billy sat on the ground and talked boredly.
Beside him, except Vera, everyone else was also present.
Eight people, none of them bad, were called here by Vera.
"That's right, Vera, what kind of ecstasy soup did your boyfriend from the Dragon Kingdom pour into you? Why do you believe everything he says?"
Rose said with a pout.
"Damn it, you all shut up, I'm saving you, saving you, you know?"
Vera said angrily.
She spent all her time trying to get these people here.
Billy spread his hands: "I don't understand, why do you insist on stopping us from going camping?"
He grabbed a handful of grass and threw it out: "There is a beautiful river there. There are fat fish in the river. There are mountains behind. There are many prey on the mountains. We can hunt."
The next two days were weekends, and their plan was to go camping tonight and stay there tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
They have been preparing for this for a long time.
"Forget about that damn camp, you all should be grateful that I know Sue, without him you, no, we wouldn't be able to run away."
"Vera, is it possible that your boyfriend is a god and he does whatever he says?"
Someone said dissatisfiedly.
Vera was furious and pointed at the library and said: "It's two fifty-five now. Just watch. In fifteen minutes, you will know whether he is a god or not."
"Come on, Vera, I think you have been poisoned by him. Love can really make people blind."
Another girl said, shaking her head.
"That's right, I don't believe that the library will really get flooded."
"Yes, how is this possible? It's simply a fantasy."
"If the library really gets flooded later, I will kneel down and kiss his feet next time I see him."
Several people talked in different directions, all in disbelief.
Vera argued a few words at first, but in the end she just stopped talking and just looked down at the time.
As he was watching, a voice came: "Vera, what are you doing here?"
Vera looked up and saw Professor Hammer.
"Mr. Hammer, let's wait here for the library to flood."
Billy joked.
"Yeah, we're waiting to see the library flooded!"
"Ha, this is a great prophecy, we are waiting for it to come true."
"That's right, Mr. Hammer, do you want to wait together?"
The others also made fun of themselves, but Vera blushed.
"Nonsense!"
Professor Hammer snorted dissatisfied: "With that time, wouldn't it be better to use it more on studying? Look at those overseas students from the Dragon Kingdom, which one is not spending time in the library from morning to night?"
After saying that, he looked at Vera with hatred: "Vera, your father sent you here to study, not to study theology."
Facing Hammer's reproach, Vera felt a little aggrieved, lowered her head and whispered: "But...but Sulin's prophecy will definitely come true!"
"You mean the library will definitely be flooded at 3:10? That's nonsense."
Hammer pointed at the magnificent building and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you think this is credible? Let's not talk about whether the library will be flooded, just talk about this time..."
Having said this, he looked at his watch and said with a smile: "It's already three o'clock, but the library is still good..."
As soon as Professor Hammer said this, he suddenly heard a huge exclamation coming from behind him.
He couldn't help but turn his head and saw a large number of students running out of the library in panic, holding their heads as they ran.
Professor Hammer's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly grabbed a student running by and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you running?"
"Professor Hammer, someone burst into the library with a gun and set fire to the bookshelves."
"ah?"
Professor Hammer was dumbfounded.
After reacting, he quickly took out his phone and dialed the police, but it showed that someone had already called the police.
It was said that the police had already rushed over, and the nearest fire brigade also sent fire trucks to the scene.
Just after hanging up the phone, several gunshots were heard from the library, and there was also billowing smoke.
Hammer quickly ran back with Vera and the others and hid in the garden.
Who knows if the hotshot has any accomplices? The most important thing is to ensure safety.
At this time, several police cars rushed into the campus, followed by three huge fire trucks.
At this time, the fire could be seen outside, and thick smoke came out of the window on the first floor and quickly spread to the second floor.
"Put out the fire first!"
Someone shouted.
Several fire trucks quickly got into position and set up huge water pipes, preparing to spray water into the library.
As a result, at this moment, a policeman shouted: "The gunman surrendered, they are coming out."
When everyone took a look, the three student-looking gunmen threw away their weapons, walked out one after another with their hands raised, and then lay obediently on the ground without moving.
Without saying anything, the police rushed forward and held down the three gunmen. After questioning, they found out that they were the only ones responsible and no one was hurt.
The smoke was getting thicker at this time, and if the fire was not extinguished, it would most likely cause a bigger fire.
The firefighters no longer hesitated, set up their water cannons, and sprayed water into the library!
A huge jet of water sprayed on the wall outside. At the same time, several firefighters rushed into the library and started fire-fighting and search and rescue operations.
This is how fire-fighting is done. The water cannons outside spray water just to ensure that the fire does not spread. The real fire-fighting depends on the people rushing in.
The crisis was over, and Hamer, who was hiding, came out with his students.
"Is this what the people from the Dragon Kingdom said about being flooded? But the water clearly didn't get in?"
Billy asked with his mouth hanging open.
As soon as this was said, everyone else, including Professor Hammer, woke up and looked at the time, only to find that the time pointed at exactly three-ten.
Involuntarily, they remembered Sulin's prediction: at 3:10, the library would be flooded.
But the question is, if it is sprayed outside, does it count as being flooded?
It's a bit far-fetched.
Even Vera couldn't help but have doubts in her heart:
It seems like it really can’t be considered flooded, right? Wouldn't it be better to say fire?
Just as he was thinking about it, he discovered that some of the firefighters had actually withdrawn. After searching for a long time, they found Professor Hammer and ran towards him.
"Are you a school teacher? Notify the school immediately and close the water supply gate quickly."
"Ah? Why? Aren't you putting out the fire?"
Professor Hammer asked puzzledly.
"There is a bookshelf against the wall. The fire has gone out by itself a long time ago. The more serious problem now is that all the automatic sensor sprinklers in the library are broken and cannot be turned off. The water pipes are all cracked for unknown reasons. Now There is water upstairs and downstairs inside, and the entire library is flooded. Hurry up..."
"Wha...what?"
Everyone, including Vera, was stunned after exclaiming.
Professor Hammer was also stunned.
He could no longer hear the rest of the words clearly, and he stared blankly at the library in the distance where thick smoke was still coming out.
Suddenly I felt cold all over my body.
