"According to official news from the Central Meteorological Observatory, a super typhoon has appeared near the waters of my country's Nansha Islands and is moving around southern Vietnam at a speed of about 30 kilometers per hour. The specific trajectory is unpredictable, and the specific wind force has reached level 17 or above."
"The National Ocean Forecasting Station has upgraded both the wave and storm surge warning levels to red today."
"In accordance with the provisions of the "Marine Disaster Emergency Plan", the Ministry of Natural Resources today launched a Level II emergency response to typhoon marine disasters, reminding the southern coastal areas, especially the coast of XX City, to strictly guard against storm surge disasters..."
…
In the dilapidated bar, apart from the sporadic sound of rain outside, only the TV hanging on the wall told of the recent unusual celestial phenomena.
It was pouring rain outside, and there were not many customers in the bar at the moment, so the boss was bored and pressed the TV remote control, hoping to find a program on his hometown TV station to pass the time.
It's just that the news on TV doesn't stop at all. It seems that any station you switch to is reporting on this sudden meteorological disaster.
The boss didn't try to watch local programs in Vietnam, because there was actually no difference. Now the mainstream media around the world are focusing on reporting this unprecedented natural disaster.
The typhoon with ridiculously strong winds is still blowing around the southern tip of Vietnam. Tens of thousands of people are still missing in the area where the typhoon is located.
This kind of thing must attract the attention of the whole world.
"This damn weather, are you planning to stop raining?"
The boss curled his lips and felt dissatisfied.
Compared with the excitement of media people around the world and the pain of relatives involved in the missing persons, his feeling is very dissatisfied.
The super typhoon that seemed to have taken root in the southern part of the country of Yue had been blowing in that area for ten days without moving at all.
Correspondingly, this unprecedented super typhoon also had a huge impact.
As a Chinese who opened a shop in Vietnam, he was inevitably affected by this.
Because of the series of climate chain reactions brought about by the typhoon, even if he was not at the southern tip of Vietnam, he was still disturbed by the majestic heavy rain. There had been no customers in the bar for ten days.
Looking away from the TV, the boss looked at the ceiling of the old-style bar and fell into silence listening to the vague sound of rain that was blocked by the wall.
This kind of weather really makes everyone feel depressed.
How about... taking this opportunity to close down and lie down for a few days?
Anyway, with the heavy rain now, generally no one would come to drink in the rain.
An idea flashed through the boss's mind.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a vibrating sound from the phone on my body.
Opening the phone, two unread text messages came into view.
One of them is a message from the Chinese Embassy in Vietnam: [The Chinese Embassy in Vietnam would like to remind all overseas Chinese to avoid going out as much as possible unless there are special circumstances. For overseas Chinese near the southern tip of Vietnam, please prepare enough dry food. Super typhoon protection is not guaranteed. Diffusion and movement possible...]
This message is very long and filled with various precautions. It can be said that it explains all the details that can be taken into consideration.
The boss did not take a closer look at this. He felt that the storm had nothing to do with him and he could just ignore it.
He just continued to look at the other message.
That was a message from his old friend Ren Junsheng: [Don't leave at the bar, wait for me! 】
The boss frowned as he looked at the information.
He looked out through the window of the bar, and saw that it was only noon outside, but it was already dark like evening, and the majestic heavy rain was pouring down all the time.
The weather has been like this for the past ten days, and he has never seen the sun at all. Even if it stops raining, thick dark clouds will remain until the next time it rains.
"Is there something you can't talk about on the phone? Why come here in person in the heavy rain?"
The boss curled his lips and complained, and then started playing with his mobile phone without saying anything more.
The idea of going out of business immediately was slightly abandoned.
After all, no matter how confused he was, Ren Junsheng was still his most important good friend.
During the two years when he first arrived in Yue to work hard, thanks to the help of Ren Junsheng, who had many connections, he slowly gained a foothold in this foreign country.
Therefore, the boss chose to suppress his doubts and play with his mobile phone for a while while waiting for Ren Junsheng to arrive.
Not long after, a sharp and sharp brake sound came through the well-insulated bar wall.
Hearing the sound, the bar owner who was playing on his mobile phone raised his head.
I saw the door of the bar being smashed open.
The noise from the outside world immediately came in without any hindrance, and the faint sound of heavy rain hit the bar owner's eardrums, making him frown.
Behind the door that was pushed open very hastily, there was a strong man wearing a black poncho, standing panting at the door.
"Junsheng, why are you in such a hurry?"
The boss stood up in confusion and walked towards his friend who had obviously put on his poncho in a hurry.
"Xueli, help me!"
When Ren Junsheng heard this, he stared at the bar owner closely with eyes filled with tears or rain.
The bar owner named Yang Xueli looked at his old friend with red eyes and felt a little confused for a moment.
What's going on here?
"Don't worry, Junsheng, sit down first."
Yang Xueli supported Junsheng's arm and pulled him to sit on a chair in the bar.
Then he closed the door that was blowing in the wind and rain. The good sound insulation effect stopped the sound of wind and rain that was roaring in his ears just now.
Looking helplessly at the puddle of water inside the door that had accumulated in such a short time, Yang Xueli turned to look at Ren Junsheng who was sitting on the chair and seemed to have calmed down.
"Tell me, what's wrong?"
Yang Xueli sat opposite Ren Junsheng and asked his good friend with some confusion.
"Didn't my brother always wander around? In order to stay away from my brother, he often didn't have a phone with him."
Ren Junsheng said slowly.
"Yes, Xiao Ren is still not sensible enough now."
Yang Xueli nodded, feeling deeply touched by his good friend's younger brother.
Obviously the elder brother is a small entrepreneur who is doing well, but the younger brother is just a small gangster everywhere.
"Originally, I thought he lost contact because he was naughty as usual, so I didn't pay more attention. I simply took the time to deal with some supplies that are easily affected by heavy rain."
"but……"
"When I saw the news this morning about the news that 20,000 people were trapped and missing on Mui Ne Island, I suddenly realized something. Is he trapped there?"
"So I made phone calls all morning to find someone to investigate my brother's whereabouts in the past few days, and finally found out... that he seemed to have really gone to Mui Ne more than ten days ago."
When Ren Junsheng said this, his expression was a little helpless.
Hearing this, Yang Xueli frowned.
This is no small thing.
Although he has always been indifferent about super typhoons, under the bombardment of all-weather news from the excited media these days, he is also very familiar with some relevant information.
This typhoon is definitely an unprecedented super typhoon.
Although the TV station in my hometown said it was above level 17, that was only because the highest level of the typhoon was only level 17.
According to the intelligence released by excited media people around the world, this super typhoon appeared suddenly and without warning.
Moreover, it has been stationed near Mui Ne Island at the southern tip of Vietnam and will not move at all. Its specific scope and power will not be reduced unless it spreads. These abnormal phenomena have confused meteorologists around the world.
The most important thing is that the power of this typhoon is really huge. Weather detection aircraft dispatched from all over the world were completely unable to enter, and they were directly affected by strong winds, heavy rains, thunder and lightning, and crashed from a distance.
A large number of island weather radars and maritime weather ships near southern Vietnam were basically destroyed by strong winds and subsequent huge waves.
At present, the world can only rely on meteorological satellites to observe and study this super typhoon from a distance.
Mui Ne Island is the place where this super typhoon has been for ten days since its birth. It is really not a small thing to be trapped in that place.
If Ren Junsheng's brother is really trapped there, it will be very dangerous.
In the small tourist city of Mui Ne, it is not surprising that under the ten days of high-intensity winds, the surface of the earth was blown bare.
And the tsunami that followed was enough to drink a bottle of Mui Ne Island.
"I've been to Mui Ne, and there are many places that are good for shelter from the wind and rain..."
Yang Xueli hadn't finished his words of comfort yet.
He was interrupted by Ren Junsheng reaching out his hand.
I saw Ren Junsheng looking at Yang Xueli with red eyes: "You don't need to comfort me, I know how powerful this storm is."
Hearing this, Yang Xueli couldn't help but fell silent.
The TV, which was still playing the news, started playing the news at an inappropriate time:
[Vietnamese officials stated that the rescue work for many people on Mui Ne Island, the center of the storm, is still actively being carried out...]
[The World Red Cross and many social organizations are preparing for disaster assistance, and a number of possible disaster relief materials are being prepared...]
Listening to these news that he didn't care about in the past, Yang Xueli became more serious than ever.
From these careless remarks, he keenly noticed that there was almost no news mentioning the specific situation on Mui Ne Island.
"I have inquired through my contacts. The storms on the sea are too great, and the sea rescue plans organized by various countries have failed in the simulation."
"As for the rescue on land, it is not simple. Thirteen groups of teams jointly organized by various countries have lost contact. Now we don't know what happened."
"All outside organizations involved in the rescue are now completely blind. They have no idea what is going on in this storm. The electromagnetic signals inside cannot be transmitted, satellites cannot penetrate the dense clouds, airplanes cannot fly in, and ships cannot cross the storm. In the restless sea, as soon as the land troops enter, another team will be lost..."
Seemingly stimulated by the TV news, Ren Junsheng kept talking a little crazily.
He wanted to save his brother.
But judging from the current situation, he seems to have no solution.
Such natural power has daunted many countries that are ready to investigate, let alone a small Vietnamese businessman of Chinese origin like him.
Perhaps, his brother has...
"Calm down, Junsheng."
"According to the typhoon weather maps published in the news, Mui Ne has basically always been in the eye of this super typhoon."
"That's the low-pressure center, which is safer than other areas of the typhoon."
Yang Xueli held the shoulders of Ren Junsheng, who was already a little crazy, with a serious and serious expression.
He knew that his friend, who was on the verge of collapse, came to him because he was at a loss and was looking for comfort.
"But there are tsunamis, heavy rains... and tens of thousands of other survivors who are emotionally unstable in the disaster."
"He may have..."
In the middle of Ren Junsheng's words, he suddenly heard a loud shout calling his name.
"Ren Junsheng!"
"Your brother must still be alive!"
Yang Xueli opened his eyes seriously and yelled at his good friend.
This roar made Ren Junsheng look at him blankly.
Ren Junsheng, who had blocked eight knives for Yang Xueli without crying, now had red eyes and was overwhelmed and confused all over his face.
"Come on, let's leave now."
"Go find your brother!"
Yang Xueli said as he waved his hand, turned around and walked to the room where he rested behind the bar to pack his things.
………………………………
The storm set off by Yong Zhou did not harm anyone within the controllable range.
But its impact caused an uproar throughout the world.
All living beings are affected, and countless people are affected.
Some ordinary people like Yang Xueli and Ren Junsheng are ready to go to Mui Ne. Some media outlets are in a carnival for this news that shocked the world. Some people are lamenting the terrifying power of nature. Some people are trapped because 20,000 people are trapped. I felt sad after losing contact...
While there is a reasonable explanation for the disappearance of 20,000 people, it also shocked the whole world.
The rescue organizations jointly established by various countries seemed somewhat powerless in the face of this natural disaster.
The power of nature.
It is most vividly reflected in this moment.
The elites from various countries in the rescue organizations understand this most clearly. They have never felt that human beings are so insignificant for a moment.
Elites from various countries have been working together to study typhoons and rescue trapped people for ten days, but so far there has been no progress.
In addition to evacuating relatives of missing persons who wanted to get closer and reporters who were desperate to get closer, in addition to analyzing the rough list of trapped people based on traffic records and social information on the Internet more than ten days ago.
They elites seem to have accomplished nothing in this matter.
Not to mention rescuing the trapped people who have lost contact, they don't even know the specific situation of the trapped people at the moment.
Thick dark clouds obscured satellites, and strong winds, heavy rain, lightning, and waves blocked the progress of aircraft, ships, and vehicles.
Even if people can't get in, the information can't be obtained.
The distribution location of the trapped people, the casualties of the trapped people, the damage to the urban area...all the urgently needed information is unknown.
They can only try to control the news channels to avoid the impact of these negative news, and then try their best to find ways to solve all this.
While the elites of various countries were busy spinning around, several speakers from the highest power organs of the three major countries, China, Europe, and the United States, gathered together via video link to discuss some issues that seemed to have nothing to do with this disaster relief. Irrelevant things.
Although they were not talking about the power of nature, the shock on their faces was no less than those of those who were impressed by the power of nature.
Because they, the higher-ups, know a lot.
They knew that their team investigating supernatural powers had just passed through Mui Ne, and then such a strange and powerful super typhoon appeared there.
The whole world is shocked by this thing, shocked by the various abnormal phenomena and power of super typhoons.
But they were sure that this strange typhoon was definitely related to those extraordinary powers.
And when they thought that the extraordinary power they wanted to investigate could make such outrageous noises, the top leaders of the three countries couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
