Aier was activating the spell while looking at the display screen.
Still no obvious vital signs.
The time was almost up - Aier quickly dismantled the staff, put away the instruments, got on the motorcycle and left the No. 7 dangerous building close to the coast.
There is no need to limit the speed in this case - the movement will officially begin soon and you must leave within this time!
…
"Finally, I barely caught up."
Elle took off her helmet and breathed a sigh of relief - there were still four minutes left before the move officially started.
She relied on the borrowed police motorcycle and faced the small section of the border town that was about to leave, planning to take a short rest.
The main thing is to see the detachment, decomposition and movement of the mobile city - the opportunity is rare, and I am barely a front-line worker now. Observing to ensure the smooth progress of the detachment work is also a kind of duty.
Probably, definitely not because she wanted to see it.
Ai'er, who was in high spirits, patted her face - two hours of intense work had made her a little tired, but now was not the time to rest!
After sweeping away the fatigue from before, Ai'er straightened her ears and a fox tail swayed behind her.
There are still three minutes left before departure - it is very close to the sea, you can feel the sea breeze blowing from time to time, and the sound of the waves seems to be vaguely audible.
And Elle heard some other sounds:
Less than five meters in front of her was the junction of the moving urban tectonic plates. Underneath, there were the sounds of mechanical operation and separation.
Perhaps because of the advancement of her Origin Stone skills, she is now very sensitive to subtle sounds.
Even if you cover your ears, you can still hear a faint sound - judging from the source of the sound, it may be that the connection device is gradually being disconnected.
Elle once read in a textbook that the connection devices used in mobile urban renewal now adopt advanced noise reduction designs and are almost undetectable beneath the urban surface.
It seems that my hearing is too sensitive... Elle couldn't help but think of the movie she watched before, in which a superhero with sensitive hearing would suffer from insomnia due to water drops - it would be terrible if that were true.
Aier stuck out her tongue, but it was better not to think about all these things.
The sound of the machine's connection gradually unraveling is as rhythmic as a drumbeat, giving people a sense of order amidst the chaos. The beauty brought by the sound of the machine makes Elle look forward to the next disassembly work.
——However, suddenly, some faint, discordant sounds appeared.
...it sounded like footsteps.
After noticing changes in her hearing, she designed a set of exercises to practice sound identification.
These are obviously human steps - only humans wear shoes.
But this direction...
Aier concentrated her attention in confusion and began to identify these strange sounds among the sounds of disintegration.
The sound of hinges when opening the door...
The sound of cabinets opening and closing...
what's the situation?
The small sector adopts automatic driving and docking. Even if there is a manual operation mode, I haven’t heard of manual driving this time...
This sound could not have come from the cockpit, and it was too deep there, so Elle was not confident that she could hear anything.
But the sound clearly came from the front...
Elle frowned and looked forward——
Figure. In the building in front, by the window.
The dangerous building No. 1 closest to the transfer point.
Child.
how come……!?
Elle's eyes widened, she couldn't believe her eyes - but that figure was there.
"It's obviously been checked..."
At the same time as Elle's murmur, the ground shook.
——The Originium engine is starting to warm up.
PS: Make it to the list at the end of the month! Readers, please lend me your strength!
