Chapter 1056 Abnormal Frequency (two chapters in one)
An earthquake occurred near noon. Although it caused no casualties, it scared many people.
As we all know, after an earthquake occurs, it is often followed by aftershocks.
So a few hours after the earthquake, everyone was patiently waiting for the aftershocks to arrive.
However, in the evening, the sun was almost setting, and there was not a single aftershock in such a long time.
At this time, most people waiting for the aftershocks believed that the next aftershocks would not happen.
However, the development of reality was unexpected. The sun went down and the moon appeared. When most people were having dinner, the aftershocks after the earthquake arrived.
At first, people who felt the shaking of the earth thought it would be the same as at noon, so everyone hurriedly ran away to a safe place.
All kinds of panicked screams could be heard, and the scene was in chaos.
Soon, everyone discovered that this earthquake was just an aftershock, far less severe than the shaking at noon.
But even if it is an aftershock that is not a big threat, no one dares to risk their lives in the face of such a natural disaster.
Almost everyone stayed in the open place, waiting for the waves of aftershocks to pass.
"This is already the third aftershock. I don't know how many more will follow." Su Yue grabbed Lin Li's arm and shook her body gently, with no trace of panic on her pretty face. .
Lin Li raised his hand and pointed to a slightly more spacious place in the distance.
“This kind of natural disaster is the most difficult to predict. How many aftershocks will occur next are possible... There are more and more people here, let’s go over there.”
Su Yue said "hmm" and then followed Lin Li and walked forward slowly.
Arrived at the destination, Lin Li had an idea in his mind and took out two small benches from the mysterious island.
“You actually carry a small bench with you.” Su Yue said in surprise when she saw the small bench.
“These things don’t take up much space, so I take a few with me.” Lin Li explained.
Then the two people sat down and looked at the noisy crowd in the distance.
Most of the people shopping in this place now take refuge in this empty square.
Everywhere you look, there are people everywhere, as far as the eye can see.
Compared to the panic of adults, children are much calmer.
When I came to this place, I felt quite safe. Some children gathered together and played happily.
A few passers-by noticed that Lin Li and Su Yue had small benches to sit on. They thought someone was selling small benches nearby, so they immediately stepped forward to ask.
"Friend, can you tell me where you bought this little bench?"
"I didn't buy this little bench here, I brought it with me." Lin Li explained.
"Uh..." Several passers-by heard what Lin Li said and didn't believe it.
Then they turned around and left with serious expressions on their faces, apparently looking for shops selling small benches in the surrounding area.
"Those people don't seem to believe what you said..." Su Yue said with a smile.
"Whatever! Believe it or not." Lin Li said indifferently.
Sometimes no one believes you when you tell the truth. No matter how hard you explain it, why should the other party not believe you?
For such people, there is no need to waste your time explaining anything to the other person.
"Alas." Su Yue sighed.
"Why did you sigh suddenly?" Lin Li asked doubtfully.
"I originally wanted to go shopping here and buy some autumn clothes... In this situation, it's impossible to go shopping, let alone buy clothes." Su Yue held her cheeks with her hands and said a little depressed. .
"There's nothing to sigh about. I can't go shopping and buy clothes today. I can just come back later..." Lin Li said nonchalantly.
"Today is today, and what will happen after that will be different." Su Yue muttered.
Lin Li shook his head and said nothing more. At this time, the cell phone in Su Yue's pocket suddenly rang.
"Drip bell bell..."
The clear ringing of the bell was inconspicuous due to the noisy sounds of passers-by around him.
"Is your phone ringing?" Lin Li reminded.
"Yes." Su Yue took out her mobile phone from her pocket. When she saw the phone number displayed on the screen, she immediately connected it.
Lin Li glanced at the caller ID on Su Yue's cell phone screen and knew it was her mother calling.
It’s quite normal when you think about it. Aftershocks are happening one after another in Rongcheng. This situation will definitely make the front page headlines.
Zheng Qiuyi learned about what happened in Rongcheng and immediately called Su Yue.
When the call was connected, she immediately said, "Xiaoyue, I just watched the news, saying that there are aftershocks in Rongcheng one after another. Is this true?"
"Yes. !" Su Yue replied.
"Where are you now?"
"I'm outside, staying in the square now. I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
After Zheng Qiuyi heard what her daughter said, her nervousness immediately relaxed a lot.
After all, it is just an aftershock. As long as you stay in an open place, you are basically unlikely to be in danger.
"Is dad at home?" Su Yue asked.
“Not at home.”
“Where did he go?”
"I went out for a walk."
"Why don't you go with me?"
"It's very windy outside, so I don't really want to go out."
Zheng Qiuyi was determined. My daughter was safe and sound, and I started chatting casually with her.
After a while, the phone hung up.
Zheng Qiuyi was about to continue watching TV when many golden stars appeared out of thin air in front of a vase not far away.
In the blink of an eye, countless stars gathered into a human form. When the light dissipated, the elegant Su Chen appeared.
"You went for a walk today, why did you come back so soon?" Zheng Qiuyi looked at her husband in surprise and asked.
"I just received news that there are aftershocks in Rongcheng. Please call Xiaoyue quickly and ask her how she is now?" Su Chen said to his wife anxiously.
Zheng Qiuyi smiled and said, "I have already called her. She is not in danger. She is staying in the square and waiting for the aftershocks to pass."
After hearing what his wife said, Su Chen's nervous expression suddenly relaxed.
He came to the sofa and sat down, picked up the water glass on the coffee table and took a sip of water.
“The aftershock this time came really late.” Zheng Qiuyi said.
Su Chen put down the water glass and said, "It was previously speculated that this earthquake was not natural. Now that the aftershocks have occurred after such a long time, it has been confirmed from the side."
Zheng Qiuyi raised her hand. , straightened the messy hair beside his ears and said casually.
"Who has such great ability, can actually cause such an earthquake, do you know?"
Su Chen shook his head, "I don't know about this, I know there is a person who has this ability. But he won’t be so bored as to do such a thing.”

In the noisy square, as more and more people come here to seek refuge, some are smarter. Merchants began to sell goods in the square. At first, aftershocks appeared one after another, and everyone was very panicked.
Now a while has passed. Although the aftershocks have not disappeared, everyone has seen that these aftershocks do not pose any threat to themselves, and gradually they are no longer afraid.
It’s fun to encounter several merchants selling goods. Passers-by taking refuge in the square will buy a few items for themselves to play with, or to give to their children.
After Su Yue and Zheng Qiuyi finished making phone calls, they turned to look at Lin Li.
"What did your mother tell you?" Lin Li noticed Su Yue's gaze and asked casually.
"She asked me if I was in danger." Su Yue recounted.
"Your hometown has not been affected, right?" Lin Li asked again.
"That's not true. Whether it was at noon or now, my mother said everything was normal." Su Yue said.
Lin Li nodded and did not say anything more about the earthquake. He looked at the lively crowd in the distance.
Su Yue followed Lin Li's gaze and looked into the distance, and found that there were many parents and children surrounding several vendors selling goods.
“Would you like to go over and have a look?”
Lin Li shook his head and said, "There are too many people over there. I had to squeeze in with others in the past."
Su Yue thought for a while and realized that this was indeed the case, so she gave up.
"Rumble..."
There was a sudden roar in the sky, and everyone present heard it.
The originally noisy square suddenly became quiet. Everyone raised their heads and looked at the location where the roar appeared.
A helicopter was flying in the sky. Due to the dark sky, it was not clear which department the helicopter belonged to.
But at this time a helicopter suddenly appeared, something must have happened.
Lin Li took out a pair of telescopes from the mysterious island, and then looked at the helicopter in the sky.
"Can you clearly see which department's helicopter it belongs to?" Su Yue asked.
"It's from the Superpower Management Bureau." Lin Li looked through the telescope and saw the helicopter flying in the sky with the sign of the Superpower Management Bureau.
Su Yue said, "Look, please lend me the telescope."
Lin Li nodded, and a few seconds later, he handed the telescope to Su Yue.
"It's really a helicopter from the Superpower Management Bureau. What are they going to do at this time?"
"Every time there is chaos, there are always some lawless elements who want to fish in troubled waters. I guess this A helicopter from the Superpower Management Bureau is rushing to a crime scene."
Su Yue nodded and said with a smile, "What you said is very likely. When the matter is over, we should be able to do it later. Saw relevant news on TV ”
The two people chatted, and the quiet square quickly returned to its noisy appearance after the helicopter left.
As time goes by, the frequency of aftershocks becomes less frequent.
Now there are not only people selling goods in the square, but also people setting up street stalls.
Originally, street vendors were not allowed to be set up in the square, but at this time, the people responsible for managing this area could not care less.
With so many people gathered here, the people responsible for managing this area are afraid of a stampede and are fully cooperating with the security officers who arrived here to maintain order.
The place where Lin Li and Su Yue were located was on the edge of the square, and there were fewer people taking refuge here than in other places.
And they have small benches to sit on, which makes it much easier than others.
"Lin Li, I'm thirsty. Do you have some water with you?" Su Yue asked.
"Yes." Lin Li said with a smile, and then with a thought in his mind, two bottles of mineral water appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Unscrew the bottle cap and hand the mineral water to Su Yue. Seeing her taking several sips, Lin Li said, "Are you so thirsty?"
"The ice cream I bought just now is a bit sweet. I didn't feel anything when I ate it. Now I feel very thirsty..." Su Yue drank a third of the bottle of mineral water and said with a smile.
"After you said that, I didn't feel thirsty at first, but now I can't do it without drinking water." Lin Li opened the mineral water and drank half of the bottle.
Time passes quickly.
When Su Yue looked at the time again, she found that an hour and a half had passed since she took refuge in this place.
At this time, the aftershocks have not completely disappeared, so even if you want to leave, you can only think about it in your heart.
"If this continues, we may have to spend the night here tonight."
Lin Li said with a smile, "I have a tent, so it's okay to spend the night here."
Su Yue scanned the He glanced at the passers-by taking refuge around him and said to Lin Li.
"Most people around don't have tents. If you set up a tent here, you will definitely be on the news the next day..."
"Uh..." After hearing this, Lin Li The thought of setting up a tent for the night here suddenly disappeared.
He didn't want to attract attention, let alone be in the news.
"Alas..."
"Hee hee..."
Lin Li sighed, and Su Yue smiled.
"What's so funny? If you can't set up a tent, it will be uncomfortable to spend the night here." Lin Li said.
"That's true." The smile on Su Yue's face faded, and then she muttered, "I hope the aftershocks will end soon."
…………
Ping'an Garden Community.
Because of the aftershocks, all the residents in the community ran downstairs to take refuge.
When the aftershock first occurred, the residents in the community ran away in a panic. Many people bumped into them and suffered minor injuries.
When everyone came downstairs to take shelter, after a while they realized that the aftershock was nothing more than that.
Of course, even if the aftershocks are not very powerful, no one dares to make fun of their own lives and just stay downstairs and wait for the aftershocks to disappear.
Many people are lying or sitting on the grass in the green belt.
Xia Qing played with her phone, patiently waiting for this belated aftershock to pass.
Zhou Tongtong on the side was playing with the little white cat and the little black cat, laughing like a silver bell.
"Meow...Zhou Tongtong, who is heavier between me and Xiao Hei?" said the little white cat.
"Yes." Zhou Tongtong nodded, gave birth to two white and tender little hands, grabbed the two little guys by the back of their necks and picked them up.
"Meow...you can tell by looking at it with your eyes." The little black cat whispered softly.
Zhou Tongtong placed the little white cat and the little black cat on the grass and said with a smile, "Xiao Hei is much heavier than Xiao Bai. In a few months, I may not be able to hold Xiao Hei." ."
"Meow...I will exercise more and reduce my weight." The little black cat said.
"Meow...it's very difficult!" the little white cat said with some gloating.
The two little guys used to be equally slim, but now the little black cat has a much larger appetite than the little white cat. It is extremely difficult for the little black cat to lose weight.
"Meow... Come on, Xiaohei! I believe you will lose weight." Zhou Tongtong looked at the little black cat and encouraged it.
"Meow... Starting from tomorrow, I will exercise more and eat less." The little black cat planned his own weight-loss plan.
The little white cat on the side glanced at his friend, his eyes full of disbelief.
