At the end of the last class, Zhang Yao left the school and returned to the community along the route he remembered.
Zhang Yao lives in Longhu Community, which is an old community in the city. The only good thing is that it is very close to Longhu No. 1 Middle School, only a ten-minute walk away.
On the way home, Zhang Yao secretly observed his surroundings. There was no change in the route, but the trees on both sides of the road were much taller and lusher than in his memory.
Zhang Yao didn't think much. Before he knew it, he was almost at the gate of the community, and Zhang Yao felt a little nervous.
At this time, according to the rules of the previous life, my mother had already gotten off work and was cooking dinner in the kitchen, and my father would not get home for more than an hour.
"My classmates and teachers have not changed. There is no reason for my parents to change." Zhang Yao comforted himself and looked towards the entrance of the community. He saw a dark group of people blocking the entrance of the community. There were many familiar faces in the crowd, all from the community.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yao felt a sense of familiarity that he had not seen for a long time.
The characteristic of the old community is that it is old and dilapidated. Many parts of the community have aging wiring and are fire hazards. They are the focus of the city's fire department.
Residents in the community gathered at the entrance of the community. Either there was a fire in the community, or the fire department came into the community to guide the residents in the community to conduct fire drills.
There was no fire truck at the entrance of the community, and there was no sign of fire in the community. It was most likely that a fire drill was being conducted.
Zhang Yao thought like this, searching the crowd, but his mother was nowhere to be seen.
Perhaps his mother was busy in the kitchen and did not hear the fire drill in the community. Zhang Yao muttered and then walked towards an elderly man wearing an old security uniform outside the crowd.
"Grandpa Liu, are fire drills being held in the community again?" Zhang Yao asked. In addition to being old and dilapidated, the old community had no formal properties at all, let alone professional security personnel.
Zhang Yao heard from his parents that Grandpa Liu worked as a security guard when he was young, and now his children are all well-off. Grandpa Liu’s children are determined not to let Grandpa Liu continue to work hard. But Grandpa Liu just has no time to spare.
I lived in Longhu Community and took the initiative to serve as a security guard in Longhu Community. I have been doing this for more than ten years and have won the respect of the residents in the community.
"It's the baby of Jiarui's family. This is not a fire drill. A gangster has escaped into our community, and the relevant personnel are arresting the gangster." After speaking, Grandpa Liu warned again: "The area around the community has been sealed off now.
It’s not safe here. Please don’t enter the community at this time. We will wait until the relevant personnel catch the gangster before we go in.”
Zhang Yao nodded and asked: "Grandpa Liu, have you seen my mother?"
Grandpa Liu thought about it for a moment and shook his head.
Zhang Yao's heart sank. The community only had a normal entrance and exit. Even Grandpa Liu didn't see Zhang Yao's mother. Zhang Yao was almost sure that his mother was still at home.
In his previous life, a sixteen-year-old boy might be at a loss when encountering such a situation. But at this moment, Zhang Yao's sixteen-year-old body is a soul in his twenties. Although he has not experienced big storms, he has seen it.
In this world, it is still possible to deal with things calmly and calmly.
"Grandpa Liu, let me go to the front and take a look." Zhang Yao squeezed through the crowd and saw an eye-catching warning line across the entrance of the community. Two men in black with live ammunition were guarding the cordon. At this time, he wanted to enter the community through the entrance.
It was obviously not going to work. Zhang Yao had already expected it, so he was not disappointed at all.
Yes, at this moment, what Zhang Yao was thinking about was how to enter the community.
There are extremely vicious gangsters hiding in the community. Needless to say, the degree of danger in the community is undeniable, but Zhang Yao cannot do it if he wants to watch his mother stay alone at home.
Zhang Yao withdrew from the crowd and walked in another direction.
Zhang Yao, who had been naughty as a child, knew every part of the community very well. Many places in the old community were not well constructed. If you really wanted to enter the community, there was more than just one entrance to the community.
Soon, Zhang Yao went around to the north of the community.
To the north of the community is a wasteland, with a small forest connected to the community wall. Zhang Yao got into the small forest, climbed over a rusty iron fence, and then successfully entered the community.
Zhang Yao crouched on tiptoes and hid quietly in the weeds under the wall. He carefully looked around, but could not see any relevant personnel.
In the current situation, either the relevant personnel have no brains, or the relevant personnel have narrowed the circle around the gangsters, so there is no one outside.
Zhang Yao thought about it and realized that it was most likely the latter.
But no matter what, this gave Zhang Yao a chance to go home.
Zhang Yao rushed out of the grass and quickly ran to the wall of the nearest building, using the wall to hide his body for a while. If the relevant personnel discovered this, they would at most be driven out. If they were discovered by the gangsters, life or death would be uncertain. However,
The relevant personnel tightened the encirclement, and Zhang Yao estimated that he would not encounter the gangsters outside the encirclement.
After walking along the corner for a while, Zhang Yao found that the community was surprisingly quiet.
At the end of February 2009, the Beginning of Spring in the 24 solar terms has already passed. After the Beginning of Spring, the temperature has risen and everything is green. It is now evening, and it is impossible not to hear the chirping of insects in the community. People are afraid of gangsters.
It makes sense, but do even insects know how to be afraid of gangsters?
Zhang Yao had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He couldn't doubt this or that just because he didn't hear the insects chirping.
There is not much we can do anymore, the most important thing is to take the mother out of the community.
Zhang Yao walked along the corner towards Building 11. Zhang Yao's home lives in Unit 101 of Building 11. The fence is one thousand meters away from Building 11. If everything goes well, Zhang Yao will be there in three minutes.
After returning home, I took my mother with me and left the community through the section of wall near the grove.
Three minutes later, Zhang Yao hid under the corner of Building No. 12, looking in the direction of Building No. 11, his face darkened.
A group of armed men in black formed a circle and surrounded the three buildings No. 9, No. 10 and No. 11.
"The first team and the second team are all there, all are there. In this operation, we are only responsible for two things: first, to evacuate the general population. Second, to form an encirclement. Now that the residents in the community have been evacuated, we take over
The next task is to guard this encircling defense line and assist the ability awakeners sent from above to carry out the arrest operation." The captain in black gave instructions to all the men in black through the walkie-talkie on his shoulder.
Zhang Yao hid under the corner of Building No. 12, only five or six meters away from the black-clad captain, and could clearly hear what the black-clad captain said into the intercom.
Ability Awakener!
Zhang Yao was shocked. He heard Chen Fan say something about Wu Juesheng in the classroom before. Zhang Yao didn't expect to come into contact with things related to people with awakened abilities so soon.
The officers in black are only responsible for evacuating the crowd, guarding the surroundings, and arresting those with awakened abilities. Could it be that the gangster who broke into the community was also an awakened person?
Just when Zhang Yao was secretly guessing, a young man in black carrying a silver suitcase appeared strangely next to the captain in black.
Zhang Yao rubbed his eyes, thinking he was dazzled.
Appear out of thin air?
No! His speed is too fast, and my naked eyes can no longer catch the trace of his appearance.
After thinking about this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Zhang Yao's mind, connecting the young man in black with a word.
The young man in black is the one with awakened abilities!
Although Zhang Yao only saw the profile of the young man in black, he could still tell that the young man in black was extremely young, only one or two years older than him at most.
"Mr. Luo Qingshan?" The captain in black confirmed the identity of the visitor as usual.
"It's me." Luo Qingshan said. When he turned to face the captain in black, Luo Qingshan's eyes inadvertently passed by the place where Zhang Yao was hiding.
Zhang Yao felt a chill in his heart. Even through the wall, Zhang Yao felt like he was being watched.
This ability awakener named Luo Qingshan discovered Zhang Yao.
Zhang Yao was ready to show up, but Luo Qingshan glanced over and seemed to have no intention of finding out Zhang Yao. Zhang Yao felt that maybe Luo Qingshan, as an ability awakener, was extremely confident in his own strength and identified an ordinary person.
People can't have any influence on this operation at all, so it doesn't matter whether they are driven away or not.
Although he has been discovered by Luo Qingshan, Zhang Yao has no intention of retreating. Hiding here, Zhang Yao can at least know his mother's safety for the first time.
Seeing Luo Qingshan, the captain in black seemed to be relieved and said emphatically: "Mr. Luo, the residents of the community have been evacuated and the encirclement has been formed. All members of the first and second teams will obey Mr. Luo's temporary arrangements."
"Narrow the encirclement. The other party is hiding in Building 9. In addition, there is a woman on the first floor of Building 11 who has not been evacuated." Luo Qingshan said without saying much else.
The captain in black's face changed. Fortunately, the other party was hiding in Building No. 9. If he was hiding in Building No. 11, the captain in black would not dare to imagine the consequences.
"One person each from the end of the first team number and the second team number, immediately go to the first floor of Building No. 11, where there are still residents of the community who have not been evacuated in time. All other team members, all other team members! Immediately narrow the encirclement towards Building No. 9.
"The captain in black commanded through the intercom.
Zhang Yao also heard Luo Qingshan's words clearly and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Confirming that his mother was not in danger, Zhang Yao thought about it and finally chose to stay.
He ventured into the community before to save his mother, but now he chose to stay to satisfy his curiosity. Zhang Yao wanted to know what was different about those with awakened abilities.
When the black team narrowed the encirclement, Luo Qingshan walked into Building 9 alone.
A few minutes after Luo Qingshan entered Building No. 9, suddenly, a harsh roar came from Building No. 9. However, the roar was interrupted by a dull sound just in the middle of the roar, and then Building No. 9 became completely quiet. Another time passed.
After a moment, Luo Qingshan walked out of Building 9 carrying a silver suitcase, and the captain in black greeted him.
"Your people are responsible for finishing the work," Luo Qingshan said.
"Understood." The captain in black showed a relaxed smile.
Just when Luo Qingshan walked out of Building 9, Zhang Yao suddenly saw a green light overflowing from the silver suitcase Luo Qingshan was carrying and flying towards him.
In the blink of an eye, this green light disappeared into Zhang Yao's eyebrows.
Could it be that I saw it wrong?
Zhang Yao touched his eyebrows. After receiving this green light, there was no change in Zhang Yao's body.
"Are you a middle school student?"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind Zhang Yao, and Zhang Yao was so frightened that he almost kicked him. Zhang Yao thought for a while, but let it go. After all, the other person was an awakened person, and he didn't know how many times more powerful than Zhang Yao.
, if you really want to kick him, you will be the one who gets hurt.
There was trouble in Building 9 before, and Luo Qingshan didn't care about the people hiding here. Now that the trouble was solved, and the people hiding here didn't retreat, Luo Qingshan naturally wanted to come over to take a look at the situation. Unexpectedly, he was a student from No. 1 Middle School.
"Yes." Zhang Yao turned around and looked at Luo Qingshan who appeared behind him at some unknown time.
Zhang Yao was not surprised at all that Luo Qingshan discovered his identity. Zhang Yao was still wearing the uniform of No. 1 Middle School. Anyone who was not blind could tell that he was a student of Longhu No. 1 Middle School.
"Did they not be evacuated in time, or did they sneak in by themselves?" Luo Qingshan asked.
"I sneaked in." Zhang Yao said truthfully. At this time, there was no need to lie.
"What are you doing here?" Luo Qingshan asked again.
"I live in Building 11, and my mother is still at home." Zhang Yao said.
Luo Qingshan glanced at Zhang Yao, turned around and left without asking any more questions.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Yao shouted.
Luo Qingshan stopped and turned to look at Zhang Yao.
"Did you see a green light?" Zhang Yao asked.
Luo Qingshan frowned and said slowly: "We are not familiar with each other, so don't make such jokes casually. Besides, I don't have a girlfriend yet."
After speaking, Luo Qingshan gradually walked away with his silver suitcase.
Zhang Yao was stunned for a moment, wondering if Luo Qingshan had some misunderstanding about the question just now.
But it seems that Luo Qingshan did not see the green light.
Even those with awakened abilities can't see it, let alone ordinary people. Is it possible that only I can see that green light?
"The system has been activated. The current spiritual value is a little, do you want to awaken?" Just when Zhang Yao inferred the green light, a voice seemed to sound in his mind.
