Carrying large and small bags in the car, Tang Rou opened the shopping list on her phone, deleted the supplies she had purchased at the mall, and looked down the list.
Aslan also came over and read out the words above, "Fresh meat wontons, are they the ones I brought you last time you stayed in the treatment room?"
"Yes, that tastes pretty good. I want to take it back and give it to No. 17 and No. 11 to try."
Aslan closed the trunk lid and said, "Sea Hare, I haven't seen him in a long time."
Tang Rou pulled on the seat belt and smiled, "I haven't seen him for a long time. If I don't bring something to apologize, I might lose my temper."
The car was driving on Binhai Road. Tang Rou turned her head and saw many people gathered on the coast not far away.
After the vehicle passed the obstacle, the perspective became clearer, and Tang Rou saw a whale.
"It looks like a whale has beached!"
She found the rescue team number of the biological base and dialed it, "Hello, I am currently at the sea zone at No. 148 Binhai Road. There seems to be a whale stranded here. Can I request rescue?"
Aslan parked the car on the side of the road, opened the door and got out of the car, and the two of them walked towards the place where the whale stranded.
Unexpectedly, as we got closer, we discovered that the lower body of the whale was not soaked in the sea, but disappeared out of thin air as if it had been bitten off by something, revealing a bloody cross-section.
A large number of onlookers gathered around the whale carcass, taking photos with their mobile phones.
"Oh my God, what's going on?"
"Did you get bitten by something? How pitiful!"
But how big does it take to bite the largest animal on earth, a whale, alive?
Tangrou and Aslan looked at each other in unison, and saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
Recently, the carcasses of many marine creatures have been washed ashore in various forms of death, but so far there has never been a creature as large as a whale.
"Could it be the sonar test some time ago?" Aslan asked suddenly.
"You said the whale was stranded because of sonar?"
That does happen occasionally, and it is indeed reasonable that sonar experiments affect whales and dolphins.
However, the current situation is not stranded.
Tang Rou looked at the sea.
I always feel like there is something in the sea that is sending a warning to humans.
Not far behind them, several wet figures were walking slowly towards the shore.
Their blue-grey skin and dripping bodies gradually became no different from ordinary people as they walked, until they entered the city and blended into the crowd.
Except for the hollow look in his eyes, no one could tell any clues.
.
The world is undergoing hidden changes.
Danger is approaching quietly, but people in the city have no idea.
They just thought it was a calm day, an insignificant day.
The gears of fate have quietly turned to the intersection of great changes, but before the disaster struck, everything seemed so quiet and ordinary.
The Chicken Soup Wontons that Atherland mentioned is indeed an Internet celebrity shop. There is an endless queue inside and outside, and the environment is also very good. It is obviously a wonton shop, and it is decorated like a Soviet-style garden.
Tangrou and Atherland were sitting on the bench outside, waiting for their number to be called, chatting away.
"Is there anything else you want to buy?" Aslan asked, biting the dried mango in his hand.
Tang Rou looked down at the list and said, "There are two more bags of candy."
"Oh, are you buying it for your dear and filial sons again?"
Tang Rou smiled and was noncommittal.
Aslan rolled his eyes and suddenly said, "On Friday the day after tomorrow, there will be a social gathering. It is said that people from Noah Base and several biopharmaceutical companies will participate. You can go with me."
Tang Rou shook her head, "I won't go."
"Go!" Aslan began to express his feelings and reason, "I'm embarrassed to be alone."
Tang Rou asked, "What's the benefit?"
Aslan was furious, "Go to a sorority with me and you still get the benefit!"
Tang Rou lowered her head, "Oh, I won't go then."
"Okay! I finally decided to forget about that bastard Xiao Ning. Are you willing to go to your best friend's expense even once?"
"..."
Xiao Ning is also an engineer at the Tower of Babel base, Atherlan's cold-hearted Capricorn ex-boyfriend, and a peerless iceberg who can't even say a single word in eight sentences.
Even Atherland couldn't help but threaten the mute man who only said "oh" when trying to break up.
Because of him, Tang Rou was often dragged by Aslan to buy the drunkenness of her broken love.
"..." Recalling the fear of being dominated by Aslan's cries and howls, Tang Rou nodded, "Okay."
Aslan was moved and fed her a piece of dried mango.
I was happy when I heard a siren whizzing by in the distance.
I raised my head and happened to see a police car running past on the road not far away. A curious person looked out sideways and muttered, "What happened again?"
"Now that the population is so large, there are so few jobs, and business is not easy to do, why aren't there people robbing us?"
"No way. There are Sky Eye systems everywhere now. Who would do such stupid things?"
Tang Rou glanced at it, lowered her head, and didn't take it to heart.
But not long after, the second and third police cars passed by.
When I looked up again, I saw not only police cars, but also military tanks and explosion-proof vehicles from the Tower of Babel Biological Base.
How is this going?
Tang Rou stood up, and just as the number was called, Aslan went over to bring the small wontons over, and then he saw military personnel starting to drive away the crowd not far away.
A long cordon was set up from the far end of the street, and armed men jumped out of military pickup trucks and began to evacuate the crowd.
Tang Rou looked over in confusion, but was stopped by armed men and chased away.
"Don't get close, there's an accident ahead, get out of here quickly!"
She turned her head sideways and noticed that the glass showcase was vibrating at a subtle frequency, and the reflection on the glass was murky.
The ground beneath my feet also shook, like an earthquake. Some
"Is there an earthquake?"
"Isn't there an earthquake?"
People indoors obviously felt the shock and hurriedly ran outside, but were driven away by armed men as soon as they ran out.
The horn sounded from the explosion-proof vehicle, echoing in the noisy streets.
"There is an emergency ahead, please take shelter indoors!"
"There is an emergency ahead! Please take shelter indoors!!"
Soon after, another alarm sound was added, "Please lock the doors and windows and go indoors, and do not move outside."
Tang Rou and Atherland were pushed into the wonton shop. Through the transparent glass window, they could vaguely see someone running at the end of the street.
Some drove cars, some used their legs, some were picked up by military vehicles, and some ran wildly with their children in their arms.
A woman ran from a distance with a seven or eight-year-old boy in her arms. One of her shoes had escaped and her hair was messy.
The door of the wonton shop was originally closed, but the woman rushed over and beat it wildly, crying and shouting, "Let me go, let me in! Please!"
