The landform of Longyu belongs to both mountainous hills and plains. The hills are mostly below 500 meters in height, while the plains are low and flat with a vast area. The traceable water area is located on the vast plains.
Ye Rong listened to the host introducing Long Yu to the children on the scene, faced the camera with a smile, and stood together with Wen Liu.
The main target group of this charity event is children, so it is called the "Baby Oil" plan, in order to provide public welfare protection for children from low-income families in Longyu, as well as children with serious illnesses who cannot get treatment.
The children at the scene were once sick and were later helped back to health by “Baby Oil”. They had bright smiles full of hope on their faces.
It makes people feel good just by looking at it.
Ye Rong had done her homework in advance, so she could call out each child's name accurately. Although she seldom came into contact with children, she had no problem interacting with them. The advantage of her good looks was that she was very much liked by children.
When it was Ye Rong's turn, the host heard something in the microphone and his eyes fell on Ye Rong accurately. After that, what was originally asked of Ye Rong became——
"Ye Rong, go downstairs to rest and prepare first, and come up later to give the children a surprise, okay?"
The children looked over with anticipation and said in unison: "Okay~"
Prepare??? Ye Rong was confused, but at this moment she managed her facial expression well and left the stage with a smile on her face.
When she went backstage, she saw Jin Lin waiting next to her.
"Sister Lin?" Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, then she realized that when the host told her to rest, she didn't really mean to rest, but that Sister Lin had something to talk to her about.
Moreover, it seems to be a very urgent matter.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have called her off the stage not long after she came on stage.
"Yan Xin called me and said he had something very important to tell you." Jin Lin said, "His tone was flat, but you could tell he was very worried about you."
Ye Rong was startled for a moment, then took out her cell phone and answered the call three minutes ago.
"Then I'll call him now." Ye Rong said as she followed Sister Lin to the backstage lounge.
"Then you call him, I'll be at the door." Jin Lin said, closing the door of the lounge for her and leaving the door to the private space for her to call.
In response to Jin Lin's respect and trust, Ye Rong smiled and said, "Yeah."
The door closed and Ye Rong called Yan Xin.
The phone was picked up after only two rings. Ye Rong asked confidently, "Yu Xin, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little low: "Sister, why did you come to Longyu today?"
Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, and said, "Of course it's for work. I remember telling you that I would participate in a charity event, which is this one."
There was no sound on the other end of the line.
Ye Rong couldn't help but lower her voice: "Is there something wrong? Why are you so anxious to find me all of a sudden?"
"…" There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. "I guess you don't remember."
Ye Rong was stunned: "Remember what..."
Before Ye Rong could finish her words, the young man interrupted her coldly: "Leave Longyu, now."
Hearing the suppressed voice on the other end of the line, Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening and her expression became serious: "Today? What time?"
"………" Yan Yuxin was silent for a moment, his long eyelashes pressed down, and he read out accurately: "At 11:57:53, an 8.0 magnitude earthquake occurred in the Longyu Sushui area, with a death toll of 20,000 and more than 40,000 injured...Ye Rong, I don't want you to be one of them.
"Yeah." Ye Rong responded softly, and at the same time raised her head to look at the time gate, and then said: "Thank you for telling me this, don't worry, I will be fine."
"………What do you want to do?" On the other end of the phone, Yan Xin suddenly realized something and was stunned. "No one will believe you, and you will be dragged down and stay here with them waiting to die. How can you explain your "foresight" to others, and how will others look at you afterwards? This time is different from the things you have encountered before. It involves tens of millions of people in Longyu City. You must know what kind of panic this matter will cause once it is spoken out, and what can you use to make others believe you? You can't even explain to anyone how you knew it... Will you give me up?"
Ye Rong said without hesitation: "Of course not. But I can't just watch this happen and do nothing."
The voice on the other end of the phone was icy: "Do you have the ability to save everyone in the city?"
"How do you know if you don't try?" The girl's voice was gentle and soft. "If it were in the past, I would have chosen to protect myself without hesitation, because I couldn't bear such a big risk. I am weak and just an ordinary person among the crowd. Only by being selfish can I live more freely. You are right. No one can bear the consequences of causing great panic to tens of millions of people in the city. This matter is serious, and there must be someone willing to cooperate with me, because the person in charge must bear the corresponding risks. I also need time to gain the trust of others, and the final order must not be implemented in time. In the end, it will be too late. And the moment I tell this secret, those who are lucky enough to survive the earthquake will hate me when facing their loved ones who died. Why didn't I try my best to save everyone after knowing it? Why did I consider saving people less than an hour later? What is my purpose and intention? Because I told this secret in the last hour, it was too late to rescue and directly killed countless people, causing countless families to be broken up... I will become a vent for pain and resentment. Isn't it?"
Yan Xin said coldly: "It's good that you understand."
"Well, I understand." Ye Rong smiled and said, "Don't worry, these things will not happen."
Yan Xin frowned. He was alone in the car at this time, but his voice was a little low: "Don't do unnecessary things. At first, I thought you were a 'returned' like me. You know what I will encounter when I come here, but you don't even know about the Longyu earthquake. Sister, you have hidden a lot of things from me. I won't settle these with you now. You leave Longyu immediately..."
"Xin, I'm hanging up first. I'll contact you when I'm done." Ye Rong interrupted him and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come to see you."
"………you!"
Ye Rong hung up the phone with a "click", then took a deep breath. It seemed that Yan Yuxin's tone just now was angry.
But this is not the focus now.
Ye Rong glanced at the time displayed on her phone: 11:01.
Her expression became serious. The book did not contain the specific place name or the date of the earthquake, and even the time gate was not specific, but Yan Xin, who had returned from the earthquake, remembered it.
Fortunately he remembered.
Ye Rong slowed down her breathing. As for what would happen in the future, she could not say anything except what was in the book, because it would touch upon the essence of the world. However, the book did not clearly state the place and time where the earthquake occurred. The specific place and time were told to her by Yan Yuxin who had returned.
You can say that.
Ye Rong stood up, opened the door and saw Jin Lin.
Seeing the rare serious look on her face, Jin Lin was stunned for a moment and asked softly: "What happened?"
Seeing Jin Lin, Ye Rong said, "Sister Lin, come in and talk."
Jin Lin nodded and the door of the lounge closed.
"After being reminded by someone, I suddenly remembered something very urgent. At 11:57:53, a magnitude 8 earthquake will occur in the Longyu Sushui area, affecting a wide area." Ye Rong said this in a suppressed voice. "Many people will die. We must move them to a safe place as soon as possible."
Upon hearing the news, Jin Lin was stunned for a moment. It was not that she did not believe the girl, but the fact was too unbelievable. The earthquake early warning device could only give an early warning a dozen seconds before an earthquake occurred, but Ye Rong said that an earthquake would occur in 50 minutes. This matter was of great importance, and it was better to believe it than not.
There were tens of millions of people in the city, and the casualties caused by an 8.0 magnitude earthquake were incalculable.
Jin Lin digested the news in an instant and said to Ye Rong, "I understand." Then, Jin Lin contacted the administrator Liang Yucheng directly and informed him of the matter.
There were no extra time gates at this time, and there was less than an hour left before the earthquake began.
Jingzhou, NSI headquarters.
After receiving the message, Minister Liang immediately issued an order to the mayor of Longyu City. General Lu Jun also received the message at the same time and contacted the governor without delay.
The mayor of Longyu City received an earthquake emergency drill from the executive officer.
[You must evacuate all Longyu people from the dangerous area by 11:57. The Longyu Military Region will cooperate with your actions and accurately mark out a safe zone for you.]
Earthquake emergency drills have always been conducted, but Longyu has never had one, because Longyu has never experienced an earthquake. Moreover, such large-scale drills are usually announced in advance, and there has never been such a sudden order like this.
The mayor had not yet recovered from his surprise after receiving the order, but he did not dare to ignore it. It was just a drill, so it was not a big problem. However, if the evacuation was to be completed in less than an hour, it would waste a lot of time to issue the order, so one hour was still too difficult.
Luckily it was just an exercise.
The mayor took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and prepared to call someone to sound the air raid alarm.
He had just picked up the phone when his secretary knocked on the door and told him, "Mayor, I just received a notice from above that the Archon of Longyu will watch the exercise remotely."
"What?!" Longyu Mayor Zhao Xingguo widened his eyes in astonishment. How could the governor, as the country's top leader, suddenly pay attention to such an inconspicuous place as Longyu and come to watch the exercise in person?
Zhao Xingguo immediately took it seriously: "Quick! Sound the air raid alarm - notify everyone to evacuate in an orderly manner. Everyone must be moved to a safe open space within 50 minutes!"
At the same time, the command of the Longyu Military Region was temporarily taken over by General Lu Jun.
At the same time as the mayor received the order, more than two dozen helicopters from the Longyu Military Region flew over Longyu. The color LCD screen inside the helicopter was connected to the star domain radar, and the images of all people in the building were visible to ensure that everyone left the building and moved to a safe open space.
When Ye Rong heard the air raid alarm, he looked down at the time door and saw that there were still 47 minutes left.
Also because the air raid alarm was sounded, the organizer received an earthquake drill order from Taiwan, the event was terminated, and everyone followed the order to evacuate to the designated open space.
At the same time, upon hearing that the Archon would watch the emergency earthquake drill in Longyu remotely, everyone stopped caring about what was happening at hand and chose to give priority to complying with the evacuation order for this earthquake drill.
The host, director and invited guests were all a little confused by the sudden earthquake emergency drill, but orders are orders. Although they didn't understand, they still cooperated and left the building in an orderly manner.
The children were a little confused and even scared because of the air raid alarm. The host and guests each held a child and gently explained the air raid alarm to the children in a language they could understand. The children quickly understood and were no longer afraid.
Looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Ye Rong saw that all the IED screens outside were broadcasting calls for everyone in Longyu to cooperate in the evacuation. He averted his eyes, hoping that this time Longyu could avoid the ending in the book.
