The residents of Arashiyama also heard the roar.
At this time, the exchange hall on the third floor of the official office building was crowded with people coming and going, with the pork stall and the chicken and duck stall having the most people.
Everyone takes advantage of the discounts to stock up, and those who have refrigerators at home are particularly active. Meat is still a good deal at a 20% discount.
Qin Xiu was also in the queue in front of the pork stall, while Qin Yufei and Yingying were queuing at the poultry stall next door.
Yingying was biting a lollipop and talking to the little boy behind her.
“Is the lollipop delicious?”
The little boy stared at the lollipop in Yingying's hand and asked timidly.
He hadn't had a lollipop for a long, long time, so long that he could hardly remember what it tasted like.
Mom said that we wouldn’t be able to buy lollipops after the natural disaster, but it turns out she was lying.
"Do you want it?" Yingying asked with a blink.
"Of course I do! I really want to! Can you give me a bite?"
The little boy's eyes were sparkling, and he gave Yingying a silly smile, swallowing his saliva.
Yingying reached into her pocket, took out a strawberry-flavored lollipop and handed it to the little boy.
"Here! My uncle bought me a lot of lollipops! Look over there, the most handsome one is my uncle!"
Yingying pointed at Qin Xiu who was queuing opposite and said proudly to the little boy.
"Wow! Thank you! I haven't had a lollipop in a long time! Your uncle is so nice, much better than my mom!"
The little boy couldn't wait to take it and put the candy into his mouth without even opening the candy wrapper.
"Hey! Why doesn't it taste good?"
The little boy took the lollipop out of his mouth and looked at it again and again with an incredulous look on his face.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! You're so funny! The candy wrapper hasn't even been torn off yet! It must not taste good!"
Yingying held her stomach and laughed out loud.
But even though she was laughing, she still helped the little boy by tearing off the plastic wrapper on the lollipop.
"Oh! So you have to eat it this way, I forgot! I actually ate it before!"
The little boy suddenly realized. When he put the lollipop into his mouth again, he felt it was so sweet. He sucked it hard a few times and found a hint of strawberry flavor.
“It’s delicious!”
The little boy held Yingying and smiled so hard that his eyebrows were not visible.
"My uncle will buy me lots of delicious food! He is the best uncle in the world!"
"My mom said that after the natural disaster, the children no longer eat snacks! They can only eat vegetables! Do you think my mom is a stepmother?"
Just as the two children were eating sweet lollipops, one was praising his uncle and the other was complaining about his mother.
A slight roar suddenly sounded, and it sounded like an airplane flying overhead, buzzing and passing by.
Since the ground was not shaking and the roar was not particularly strong, no one took it seriously.
Only Qin Xiu frowned, and suddenly he had a bad premonition in his mind.
…
On Su Keke's side, the two of them followed Tangyuan and ran up to the third-floor balcony in one breath.
Tangyuan finally calmed down a little when they reached the top floor of the villa, and Su Keke picked it up.
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, I felt an indescribable weird feeling in my heart.
"Is it going to rain? It was sunny just now!"
Grandma Qiao walked to the balcony, took the glutinous rice balls from Su Keke's arms, and pressed her forehead against it. "Tangyuan! Are you trying to remind grandma that it's going to rain?"
"Oops! I almost forgot, the corn in the pot should be cooked!"
Grandma Qiao was about to go downstairs holding Tangyuan, but Tangyuan in her arms was unwilling to go downstairs. It grabbed Grandma Qiao's clothes and started meowing again.
"Tangyuan is a little weird today!"
Grandma Qiao and Su Keke looked at each other and felt confused.
"Isn't something serious going to happen?"
Grandma Qiao suddenly felt a little nervous. She put the dumplings down and hurried downstairs!
"Grandma Qiao! Turn off the induction cooker and hurry upstairs. I think there must be a reason why Tangyuan kept asking us to go upstairs today."
Su Keke shouted loudly in the middle of the stairs to Grandma Qiao who had already gone down to the second floor.
"Got it! I'll bring the corn upstairs, and you can eat it on the third floor later!"
…
In a coastal area unknown to everyone, there was suddenly no sea water on the shallows, and the surrounding sea began to ebb at the same time.
The speed was so fast that it was as if someone had installed a large water pump on the seabed. Within a few minutes, the water level on the sea surface was dropping at an alarming speed.
Immediately afterwards, huge waves suddenly swept in, and the sea water that had just been retreating began to rush towards the coast again.
All of a sudden, sea water was rushing everywhere, and most of China's coastal cities were hit by the sudden tsunami.
Many people were directly hit by the surging waves and then drowned.
Everyone was running desperately to higher places, but no one could outrun the speed of the sea water.
“What…what is this?”
"Thick smoke? Or is it a fire cloud? It's moving so fast! It's getting closer and closer to us!"
The people who were cleaning up the earthquake scene raised their heads curiously when they heard someone muttering.
During this kind of collective labor, even the smallest thing could attract everyone's attention, because it gave them a legitimate reason to be lazy.
"Oh my god! Uncle Chen, what is that?"
Lin Xiao stood on tiptoe and looked at the white group in the distance getting closer and closer to them, and asked in confusion.
"It seems like... it's the tide?" Chen Da was not quite sure, but he felt that this thing was moving very fast.
"No way? The tide is coming so fast and so high? That... isn't that a tsunami?"
"Ah...Everyone run! The tsunami is coming!"
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, and he quickly threw away the bamboo basket on his body and ran desperately in the opposite direction.
The group of people closest to the tsunami were directly submerged by the tsunami. Before they could even scream, they were blown away by a huge wave of more than ten meters high.
"Everybody, get on the truck!"
Lei Mu shouted to everyone, then quickly pulled his son Lei Wenbin and ran as fast as he could.
Judging from the tide and huge waves, the Arashiyama base might not be safe either. They had to go home quickly and run to the top of Arashiyama with their families.
"Ah! Ah... Boss, save me..."
The mountain cat tripped over a rock and suddenly fell into the ruins. His face was pierced by several broken glass and was covered in blood.
"Bobcat... you actually lost your way while running for your life!"
Lin Xiao was furious, but there was nothing he could do, after all he was the younger brother. He had already run a long way away, but now he ran back to save the mountain cat.
The people behind were already swarming towards Bobcat.
Everyone was so frightened that no one cared whether there was anyone on the ground or not. They just kept stepping over it.
"Ah...ah...ah..." The women kept screaming, and Bobcat was unfortunately stepped on by the people behind.
"Boss... Boss... please go away... leave me alone..."
The mountain cat used the last bit of his strength to shout in the direction of Lin Xiao.
