YM778.TV 282 Chapter 173
Following Chen Hu’s slow introduction, Lin Zeming finally understood why there were still people left behind in this city.
At first, when the change had just occurred, ordinary people had not noticed the change in the weather. They had only thought that it was a continuous thunderstorm. However, the group of people in power in the upper echelons were very clear about it. Other than the mayor who stayed behind.., the rest of the people, including the city’s business executives, used their own means to escape from this thunderstorm city.
Subsequently, the continuous thunderstorm weather and the rumors circulating within the city made the ordinary people aware of the change in the weather and fell into panic.
During the period of extreme chaos, the mayor finally announced the news of the thunderstorm weather to the entire city’s citizens through the television and radio stations, as well as the fact that the country was coming to help with the evacuation.
This news came at the right time, successfully calming down the restless people and restoring peace to the originally chaotic city.
However, not long after, a lightning accident happened, causing the people to fall into panic once again.
Countless people present witnessed the five humans who were struck by the Lightning turning into charred corpses in an instant.
Even with the lightning rod, such a disaster still happened, which made all the residents panic again.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the only Lingtai Airport in the city became a fragrant bun. A large number of people gathered every day, trying to leave this place by taking the plane here.
It wasn’t that they didn’t know about the country’s assistance, but because of the previous accident, they didn’t have the patience to wait. It took more than ten days for the rescue to arrive, and they wanted to leave this area where death could happen at any time.
This included people who believed in their own methods more than the country.
At the same time, they had to mention the geographical environment of Lingtai City, which was a city on an island in the south.
Therefore, there was no way to leave this area that was covered by lightning except for planes and ships.
Unfortunately, due to the change in the weather, the sea became extremely turbulent, and the Thunder roared wantonly. As a result, the probability of accidents on ships was much higher than that on planes.
Therefore, most people had to choose the safest way to leave the city by plane.
One had to know that only an experienced captain could successfully fly the plane through the obstruction of endless thunder and lightning in stormy weather to the outside world.
Moreover, except for a few round-trip planes, most of the planes were one-way tickets. Once they left, they would not come back. This further resulted in the ticket becoming extremely expensive and scarce.
Within a few dozen days, many conflicts broke out around the dispute over the tickets. After a long period of preparation, they finally broke out before the arrival of rescue.
That accident was called the [ airport incident ] by Chen Hu. The rioters invaded the airport and attempted to kidnap the captain and bring them here. However, they accidentally ignited the flames and caused a large-scale explosion, in the end, dozens of planes were completely destroyed, and a large number of people died.
When the explosion happened, Chen Hu was among them. He was originally looking for an opportunity to buy a plane ticket and leave this chaotic place.
However, he was affected by the aftermath of the riot and was affected by the airflow. He crashed into the wall behind him and lost consciousness.
Fortunately, he did not die. Instead, he was saved by the medical staff who came later.
When he woke up again, the national rescue had arrived. Everyone was excited. They packed their things and quickly boarded the national plane and ship to leave. They did not even notice Chen Hu who was in a coma in the hospital.
With needles all over his body, he could not move at all. The other medical staff had already left. He could only walk out of the hospital bed with difficulty step by step. He used the infusion rod as a crutch to support his body and walked out of the ward, he wanted to follow the team and leave this place.
However, when he walked in the quiet hospital and looked into the distance through the window of the corridor, he saw the number of helicopters rising up.
Chen Hu shouted loudly and used his hoarse voice to call for the other party to come back. He raised his right hand and tried to call for the helicopters that had left.
However, in the end, he still had no strength to put it down. His voice gradually weakened. He knew that he had been abandoned, abandoned in this deserted city.
...
“Such a mistake actually happened! ! !”
“Damn it, at that time, our army in the capital all agreed that it should have been a perfect evacuation.”
After hearing Chen Hu’s words, Lin Zeming said in surprise. As a soldier of the army, he had no idea that so many civilians were left here.
Chen Hu laughed bitterly when he heard that.
“Perhaps, it is because we are all people without any attachments that we are forgotten by everyone...”
“Sergeant Chen, other than me, the rest of us have more or less missed the opportunity to leave due to various reasons and were left here. We are all looking forward to the day when the country can send troops to come and rescue us again.”
Noticing the anticipation in the other party’s words and the excitement in his eyes earlier, Lin Zeming smiled and patted his shoulder as he comforted him.
“Don’t worry, brother. Since I have already discovered your situation, I will naturally not leave you alone. When I find an opportunity, I will contact the higher-ups and bring you out of this area.”
