The clear sky is as crystal clear as sapphire, without any impurities. A few thin white clouds are floating below, floating lightly with the wind, and projected onto the vast lake, adding the color of floating clouds to the calm blue waves.
.
There are criss-crossing pedestrian trails, tourist boardwalks, and sightseeing bridges around the lake. There are lush flowers and trees planted on both sides. The sunlight passes through the layers of branches and leaves, leaving sparkling spots on the ground. The breeze blows across the lake and rolls up.
The fallen leaves on the shore fly towards the rows of high-rise buildings in the distance.
In this reinforced concrete forest, there is such a beautiful and vast lake park, which is definitely a good place for leisure and entertainment. It should be a good place for nearby residents to enjoy the shade under the trees, stroll in the forest, and play by the lake.
But looking around now, the lakeside under the sun is actually empty.
Plank roads, bridges, and cruise ships are covered with dead branches and fallen leaves; benches, stone tables, and railings are covered with paper bags and plastics; the weeds in the flower beds are so lush that there are almost no traces of flowers, and they are stained with rust.
The glass lampshade on the top of the street light pole was shattered, and the exposed light bulb was covered with thick dust everywhere, but there were no footprints.
Everything seemed extremely empty, everything seemed extremely dilapidated, everything seemed like this urban lake park surrounded by high-rise buildings had not been visited for a long time, and no one had cleaned and maintained it for a long time.
It was so quiet all around, with only the sound of the wind blowing. You couldn't hear the whistle of the car, the noise of the crowds, or the horn of the screen on the street...
I don't know how much time passed, but the sound of heavy footsteps "Boom! Boom!" came from the distance, and the ground trembled slightly. The calm lake water rippled, and as the footsteps came closer and closer, the water surface undulated.
It gets bigger and bigger, almost developing into a raging wave.
When the dead branches and leaves on the plank road started to beat, the footsteps were already loud as thunder, and a huge blue-gray head was revealed from the treetops, with a sickle-shaped tip on top, walking forward with huge eyes.
He glanced around and walked slowly, as if he was patrolling the territory, and also seemed to be looking for something.
But no matter how slow you walk, your 60-meter-tall body can cover a long distance with every step you take. Step by step, you gradually walk farther and farther away, and eventually disappear among the dense high-rise buildings, until the sound of heavy footsteps can no longer be heard.
A pile of ordinary fallen leaves suddenly rose up, and a long-haired girl wearing something like a ghillie suit emerged from it, whispering into the headset: "The monster has passed, start taking action immediately, the time limit is fifteen minutes." p>
"Understood!" A very inconsistent reply came from the headset, and then, several pickup trucks sprang out of the forest and drove on the empty streets, bypassing the cars parked on the road and a person on the road.
A huge footprint arrived in front of a large supermarket.
The pickup truck almost rushed into the supermarket, getting as close as possible to the supermarket. Then more than ten people jumped out of the truck and rushed into the supermarket like their buttocks were burning. They moved all the items on the shelves and started today's zero-dollar shopping.
Purchase.
As time passed by, the girl in charge became more and more anxious. She looked at her watch and the vibration detector in her hand from time to time. Every fluctuation on the display screen made her heart beat.
For a moment, I was afraid that the curve would suddenly rise, because that meant that the monster was coming and would probably wipe out the entire transport team.
Fortunately, no accidents occurred until the zero-yuan purchase was over. A large amount of supplies were successfully obtained, and everyone evacuated. They also ran out quickly, jumped on the pickup truck, started the car immediately, and headed towards
Drive in the direction you came from.
After all the cars had left the empty streets, a new command came from the headset: "Evacuation of the security squad."
"Understood!" The cute-looking girl breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately carefully put the instrument in her hand into a backpack padded with several layers of clothes as a buffer, and then ran in the direction she came from. After only a few steps,
He stopped and turned to look to the left. There seemed to be something on the grass.
"Who is where?" the girl said in a low voice, acting very timidly, like a frightened little rabbit, ready to escape at any time.
Her voice was transmitted to other people through the headset, causing the correspondent to ask hurriedly: "Risa, what's wrong?"
"It seems... there is someone!" The girl named Risa walked over cautiously, stretched her neck and looked at the lush grass, and said: "There is indeed someone, but it seems that he is unconscious due to injury. Captain, what should I do?
?"
"Don't worry, we're running out of time. Leave there as planned." A girl's voice that sounded very heroic came from the headset.
Risa bit her lip, looked at the pale boy, and said hesitantly: "But..."
"Don't be stubborn, be careful. It's a trap." Finally a very dignified female voice sounded: "You leave first, I will go over and take a look."
"Okay!" Risa nodded, strode towards a sewer entrance not far away where the manhole cover had been moved aside, and went down the escalator to the bottom. Not long after, two people wearing clothes with EDF letters and patterns on them were seen.
The woman in combat uniform with the same name ran over along the sewer that could accommodate two people walking side by side.
Risa's nervous little face showed a smile, and she lowered her voice and shouted: "Captain, vice-captain, here, here!"
The woman whose clothes were marked with Anna breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Risa was safe, and then said with a straight face: "Didn't I tell you before we set off? No matter what happens, we must evacuate according to the original plan."<
/p>
Risa whispered: "But that's a person."
"Did you forget what I told you?" Vice-captain Sawa also scolded in a low voice, making Risa lower her head involuntarily.
"Okay, let's go up and take a look. Risa, just stand here and don't move." Captain Anna climbed up first, and after making sure there was no movement, she asked the vice-captain to follow her, leaving Risa waiting in place, staring intently.
Staring at the sewer entrance.
Soon, there was movement there. The two of them carefully lowered the man Risa had just seen by his arm, and the last man who came down covered the manhole cover.
Without even having time to check what kind of injuries the man had suffered, the three of them took over to support the unconscious young man and walked in the direction they came from. They quickly disappeared and the place returned to calm until two minutes later.
Only then did the heavy footsteps of "Dong! Dong!" come again, breaking the tranquility and telling all survivors that the monster was patrolling this place again, so be careful to avoid it!
