Chapter 718 Doubt (two chapters in one)
A vast white mist shrouded a small island surrounded by these white mist.
On the mysterious island, a figure appeared out of thin air in the center of the island.
Wearing black training clothes, Lin Li returned from the ruins space and arrived at the mysterious island. What caught his eyes was the magical tree with lush branches.
The original exploration plan was terminated because the weather turned bad in the afternoon. Lin Li was not in a good mood.
But now that I'm back on the mysterious island and looking at the magical tree in front of me, my disappointment immediately becomes much better.
With a thought in his mind, a message appeared in Lin Li's mind.
Superpower fruit: maturity progress 6.5%
Island area: 150 acres.
During this period of time, I was exploring the ruins space and did not specifically hunt for strange beasts. Although the maturity progress of the superpower fruit was less than 10%, compared to the zero at the beginning, it was still progress. Some progress has been made.
"My time this afternoon was wasted. I will get up early tomorrow to explore the ruins space... Regardless of whether I gain anything tomorrow, I will leave the ruins space and return to Dongwu City."
Lin Li murmured in his mouth Talking to himself, he then retracted his gaze from the magical tree and turned his head to scan some of the crops he had planted around him.
A few days have passed since the last watering. Before going home, Lin Li planned to water the crops he planted.
The next second, Lin Li disappeared and appeared where the bucket was.
He picked a large bucket and went to the edge of the island to fetch water.
After a while, the sound of gurgling water sounded on the mysterious island.
Wearing a black training suit, Lin Li was holding a water bottle in his own farmland to water the vigorously growing crops.
…………
In Ping’an Garden Community, after the heavy rain stopped, people in the community came out for activities again.
The air after the rain is very fresh. Some people take advantage of this time to exercise at some fitness facilities in the community.
When it rained before, the wind was very strong. The flowers, plants and trees in the green belt were swayed violently by the wind. Flowers of different colors and slightly yellow leaves were blown to the ground by the wind.
The ground needs to be kept clean and tidy. The sanitation workers responsible for the sanitation of the community immediately take the broom to clean the leaves and flowers on the ground after the rain stops.
In the corridor of Building 3, the little white cat and the little black cat squatted at the exit of the corridor, looking up at the sky.
"Meow...the weather has cleared up!" the little black cat said.
"Meow...yes, the weather has cleared up. The rain just now was really heavy. If we hadn't hid in time, we would have got wet." The little white cat responded.
"Meow... I thought the rain would stop until tomorrow, but I didn't expect it to stop in a few hours." The little black cat said.
"Meow... I was originally worried that it would rain heavily when Zhou Tongtong was out of school, but it's fine now." said the little white cat.
The two little wild cats looked at the sunny weather and chatted quietly.
Suddenly, the little white cat’s fluffy little ears twitched, and its round eyes flashed with pale golden light.
"Meow...what's wrong?" the little black cat noticed the pale golden light flashing in his friend's eyes, and asked based on past experience.
"Meow... Zhou Tongtong's mother is about to step out of the elevator." said the little white cat.
"Meow... It's almost time for Zhou Tongtong to get out of school. Her mother is going to pick her up from school." said the little black cat. It did not doubt that what its friend said might be wrong. of.
The elevator not far away dinged, and when the elevator door opened, Xia Qing, wearing a white T-shirt and light blue jeans, with her hair tied into a ponytail, walked out.
The two little wild cats watched the gentle Xia Qing walk up to them. They looked at each other with wide round eyes.
"Why are you two here?" Xia Qing looked at the two little wild cats squatting at the exit of the corridor and asked.
As soon as she finished speaking, an idea immediately came to her mind, so she smiled and said, "You are here because it rained heavily just now, so you came here to take shelter, right?"
"Meow. ..." The two little wild cats meowed in response to Xia Qing's statement. Then, they remembered that the other party was not Zhou Tongtong and could not understand what they were saying, so they nodded quickly.
Xia Qing saw the two little guys nodding and knew that her guess was right, so she squatted down, stretched out her hand, touched the heads of the little white cat and the little black cat, and said with a smile.
"You guys are squatting at the exit of the corridor like this. If you meet other people who want to go in or out, you will block others... If it rains in the future, you can come to my house."
小The white cat and the little black cat now no longer resist Xia Qing's touch as before. They were patted on the head by Xia Qing, listened to what the other party said, and then barked in response.
Of course, Xia Qing couldn't understand what was said, so she could only nod to show that she understood.
After petting the two little wild cats, Xia Qing retracted her hand and stood up.
"Tongtong is getting out of school soon. I'm going to pick her up from school now... I'll bring you some small fish on the way back later. Don't run around and wait for me to come back."< br>
"Meow..." When the little white cat and the little black cat heard that there was a small fish to eat, their eyes suddenly lit up and they nodded quickly.
Xia Qing said goodbye to the two little wild cats, walked out of the corridor and walked towards the place where the electric car was parked.
The little white cat and the little black cat also ran out of the corridor. They squatted on the grass in the green belt on the roadside, watching Xia Qing who was pushing the electric car out of the carport.
"Buzz..."
Starting the electric car, a subtle sound rang out. Xia Qing, who was wearing a helmet, drove the electric car in an orderly manner towards the entrance of the community.
The eyes of the little white cat and the little black cat have been falling on Xia Qing. As the other party leaves, their eyes also move.
"Meow...we will have delicious fish to eat later." The little black cat said excitedly.
"Meow... wait until we become more powerful, we can catch small fish to eat by ourselves." said the little white cat.
"Meow... we catch small fish to eat ourselves?" The little black cat was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then asked, "We went to the park to catch small goldfish in the goldfish pond. Do you want to eat?”
“Meow... we can’t catch those little goldfish.” The little white cat shook his head.
"Meow...then you mean, let's go to the lake to catch fish?" the little black cat said awkwardly, "It's not easy to catch fish in the lake! I've tried it several times before, It’s impossible to catch them.”
Some time ago, on hot afternoons, the little white cats and the little black cats would go to a nearby park and jump into the artificial lake to swim.
After the little black cat learned that there was a fish in the lake, it always wanted to catch it and eat it. However, it tried several times but failed to catch it.
At the beginning, the little black cat refused to give up, thinking that if he worked hard, he would be able to catch it. However, after repeated failures, he completely stopped thinking about catching fish.
"Meow...it's not easy to catch fish in the lake. There are many more fish in the river than in the lake. Let's go to the river to catch fish first. When it becomes more powerful, we will Go catch fish in the lake," the little white cat analyzed seriously.
The little black cat nodded when he heard this, and then the two little guys began to discuss where they would go to catch fish on the river bank in the future.
…………
After the rain, the sky cleared up, and the blue sky seemed to have been wiped with a rag. It was very translucent, like a huge sapphire.
At this time, it is also the time when the sun sets, and the sun in the sky sets towards the horizon.
The gorgeous sunset paints the wiped blue sky with bright colors.
Because it was getting dark soon, the birds that were looking for food in the suburbs or in the wilderness flew up in small groups, flying towards the center of the city, and returned to their resting places at night. “Chirping…”
The clear chirping of birds made the community very noisy. Lin Li, who had watered various crops on the mysterious island, returned home and suddenly heard the chirping of birds outside the window.
Walk towards the balcony. As soon as Lin Li walked into the balcony, he saw a wet situation on the ground.
“It’s raining?”
“No! It’s raining not only in the ruins space, but also at home?”
Thoughts flashed through Lin Li’s mind , and then he immediately looked up at the orchids on the balcony.
"Huh..."
"It's still alive, it shouldn't be too affected."
Lin Li looked at the thriving orchid, and saw that there were still some water drops hanging on its leaves. , not being disturbed by the heavy rain earlier, I felt relieved.
Before going out to the ruins space in the morning, I took photos to show Su Yue while chatting.
At that time, I showed off that the orchid was growing strong and healthy without any bad condition.
If Su Yue found out that his waist was broken immediately after a heavy storm, he would inevitably talk about it and make fun of himself.
In order to ensure that the pot of orchid given by Su Yue would grow vigorously for a period of time and not die soon after it was received, Lin Li stepped forward to check whether there was water in the pot.
After checking, there were indeed no other problems, so I raised my hand to pick up the orchid and put it on the balcony where it would not be easily affected by the rain.
Back indoors, the room is a little dark because the sun is going down soon.
Lin Li came to the living room and turned on the light, sat down on the sofa, and then picked up the remote control placed on the coffee table and turned on the TV.
"By the way, my phone is still on the mysterious island and I haven't taken it out..."
After turning on the TV, Lin Li remembered that he didn't have his phone with him. Then, with a thought in his mind, he pulled out the air in his hand. A mobile phone appears.
“Ding dong.”
After the cell phone, which had been cut off from the signal, appeared in Lin Li’s hand, it immediately rang several times. This was when someone sent the message while Lin Li was leaving Blue Star. Give him some information.
After taking a look, many of the messages were spam advertisements sent by strangers.
Clicked on the social software, browsed the messages Su Yue sent, and then quickly typed a reply.
After replying to Su Yue's message, Lin Li put the phone aside, then changed the TV program and jumped to the news channel.
"Huh?"
As soon as he jumped to the news channel, Lin Li saw a picture that stunned him for two or three seconds.
“The situation at the scene is very bad, the water has flooded the surrounding roads, and now the people in the village cannot communicate with the outside world...”
A reporter wearing glasses raised his hand and pointed to the flooded area in the distance, introducing the current situation to the audience in front of the TV.
"Isn't it? Floods actually occurred in the northern suburbs... When typhoons hit before, such disasters never happened there.
After a few hours of heavy rain in the afternoon, it turned out like this, That's too exaggerated!" Lin Li looked at the disaster scene broadcast on TV in surprise, filled with doubts and confusion.
The frontline reporter reported for a while, and then the scene switched back to the TV studio.
After the beautiful news host began to broadcast the flood, the relevant departments promptly launched the first aid plan.
"According to the latest news received by this station, the emergency rescue department has sent personnel to the scene to rescue the affected villagers.
All villagers trapped by the flood should be able to be moved out before twelve o'clock tonight ..."
Lin Li watched the news report about the flood broadcast by the news host, and then picked up his mobile phone to go online to read other related reports.
The emergency response department responded quickly and everything is progressing in an orderly manner.
So far, there have been no casualties, which is a blessing among misfortunes.
"There's something wrong with this heavy rain causing such a flood!"
After Lin Li read the news about the flood, he raised his hand and touched his chin, muttering to himself.
After thinking for more than ten seconds, I felt that this matter was a bit unusual, so I opened the social software and sent a message to Liu Jialin.
As an investigator, Liu Jialin must have better information than the average person.
Of course, due to status reasons, it is sometimes inconvenient to disclose many things to outsiders.
Lin Li felt that there was something strange about a heavy rain causing such a severe flood. The fastest way to get the answer was to ask Liu Jialin.
The other party knew some information, and if it was inconvenient to reveal it, Lin Li would not ask further questions.
But not disclosing it also confirmed it in disguise. Lin Li felt that there was some strange speculation about the flood.
“Ding dong.”
After Lin Li sent the message to Liu Jialin, he received a reply quickly.
"About this flood, according to what I have learned so far, it may be related to alien beasts..."
Lin Li frowned after reading the message Liu Jialin replied.
Although he suspected that the flood disaster was unusual, he did not think about strange beasts.
"It has something to do with alien beasts. What's going on? Can you tell me something?"
Liu Jialin, who had just handed in a report and was about to return to the office, was standing on the roadside at the moment. Under a tree, looking at the message from Lin Li, she thought for a while and replied.
"It's nothing inconvenient, but at the moment it's just a suspicion that it's related to strange beasts, and further investigation is needed to confirm it.
After I tell you, don't tell others about it for the time being..."
< br>Lin Li promised, "Don't worry! I won't talk to others "
Liu Jialin typed and described, "It's like this. The weather changed in the afternoon and it rained heavily.
Logically speaking, the water conservancy facilities in the place where the flood occurred are still OK. Floods like this shouldn't happen.
People from the relevant departments were suspicious and immediately sent people to follow the people from the emergency and disaster relief departments to the scene to conduct an investigation.
According to the on-site investigation by investigators, it was found that there were traces of psychic fluctuations at the disaster site, and some animal footprints were also found in the upper reaches of the river..."
