The strangest thing was that there was a layer of light blue flowing light on the white treasure chest, which she had not noticed the night before.
“Crash—”
Another thunderclap.
This time Su Xiao saw it clearly. After the lightning fell into the river, it spread along the flooded river water and finally gathered on the treasure chest. It was very obvious - it was conductive.
The treasure chest now seems to have become a trap. Will I be killed if I try to pick it up?
Su Xiao was extremely alert.
It's just a white treasure chest, she doesn't need one.
She wouldn't gamble even if the probability was one in ten thousand. She just made a bet and Xiaomo shut it down. Now she doesn't dare to be a gambler.
Just as I was about to go back to the cellar to wipe my wet hair and change clothes, I heard an electronic sound of "beep, beep, beep".
I almost thought it was a notification.
“Ding ding ding—”
Su Xiao looked towards the source of the sound and realized it was a satellite receiving device.
Quickly walk over, take out the device, and click the receive button.
There was a "hissing" sound of a helicopter and a noisy voice from the other end, and then there was the voice of a strange man.
"Hello, this is the Alliance Search and Rescue Center. I don't know what your name is. According to the agreement between the Alliance and you, we have found Mr. and Mrs. Jiang. They fled into the cellar, but the exit is blocked. They still have no vital signs, but they have minor injuries and are now in a coma."
There was also thunder and lightning over there.
It happened so quickly, and they are still rescuing people. The scene of them rescuing people in the rain automatically emerged in my mind.
Su Xiao thought for a moment and asked, "Will lightning strike you specifically when you are on land?"
Although it's not rude, she wants to know.
The other party didn't expect Su Xiao to ask such a strange question. After a long pause, he replied, "It is indeed a thunderstorm now. We are required to take precautions and continue the rescue. In addition to Mr. and Mrs. Jiang, there are other victims. As an important task has been issued, we are asked to contact you first after finding Mr. and Mrs. Jiang."
That is to say, on land, lightning does not specifically strike innocent survivors.
The thunder just now was indeed coming towards her.
It is not possible to confirm whether the risk of being struck by lightning during a thunderstorm only occurs during thunderstorms or only targets survivors bound to safe houses.
Just as he was thinking about it, a leaf boat appeared in front of Su Xiao's fishing boat. It had a strange shape, and a corner of the curled treetops just blocked the thunderstorm.
It's like a leaf safe house, and you can't see the people inside.
After observing quietly, I saw a survivor who was wrapped tightly in a raincoat and a mask coming out.
The man lay on the boat and tried to touch the treasure chest. The moment his hand touched the treasure chest, dazzling lightning struck.
“Crash—”
Su Xiao closed his eyes subconsciously, and when he opened them again, the red raincoat had been burned to ashes. The man fell into the river with smoke all over his body, floating on his back like a dead fish. His face was black, and his hair was burned so much that it was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman. There was a leaf-shaped toy on his body.
A red dot appeared in front of the fishing boat's electronic map, indicating that there was a bound safe house ahead.
Su Xiao: ...
This damn doomsday game has traps every day, and they’re different every time. It’s really cheap.
He took the communication device and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Please take good care of them for me. Contact number 1349 and tell her I'll meet her at the usual place at 10 am tomorrow."
Only after the other party replied "Received" did Su Xiao cut off the communication.
From 6 to 8 o'clock, it's only 2 hours.
Rather than saying that the alliance was fast, it would be better to say that they had been organizing professional rescue teams in Kyoto to carry out rescue operations, so they were able to find them so quickly.
Su Xiao was about to return to the cellar when she was attacked by a chill. The chill reached her body and made her shiver.
It's so cold.
I touched my forehead and it seemed like I had a fever again.
