Views:

At this moment, everything in front of Shen Qiu and Tang Kexin began to overlap.

Shen Qiu and Tang Kexin were overjoyed and rushed in suddenly.

At this time, three rockets fell straight down.

Boom!

A huge explosion swept across the place in an instant.

Shen Qiu and Tang Kexin's vision suddenly turned white.

The two of them subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes. The dazzling light made it impossible for them to open their eyes.

At this moment, there was a sudden sharp sound of emergency brakes and horns.

Squeak

The next second, a black SUV stopped less than 30 centimeters away from the two people.

Before Shen Qiu and Tang Kexin could react, a middle-aged man pressed the hazard lights, immediately stuck his head out of the car window and cursed at the two of them.

"NMB, you are crazy! Are you looking for death by running in the middle of the road? If you don't want to live, don't come out to hurt others! This is really bad luck!"

Shen Qiu looked around blankly, and then he found that he and Tang Kexin had run onto the overpass without knowing when.

Shen Qiu was familiar with this viaduct. It was the viaduct on the Eighth Ring Road of Clear Sky City.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my boyfriend was in a bad mood, drunk, and acted crazy. He insisted on running up to me, and I didn't stop him in time. It's my fault."

Tang Kexin quickly bowed pitifully to the driver and apologized sincerely.

After listening to Tang Kexin's soft apology, the uncle's anger subsided a lot, and he started talking.

"You're lucky this time because I braked quickly, otherwise you would have been dead. Come on, it's very dangerous here, take your boyfriend with you. People are panicking right now, don't run out and cause trouble for others."

"Okay, okay, sorry, we'll leave now."

Tang Kexin kept apologizing and then pulled Shen Qiu to the edge.

"Young people nowadays, what a shame! They have such poor tolerance and are ready to commit suicide at the slightest setback. It's really pitiful, such lovely young ladies."

The uncle watched the two people leave, muttered to himself, restarted the car and left.

Shen Qiu and Tang Kexin walked along the edge of the overpass, but did not speak. They just took out their cell phones and turned them on tacitly.

Buzz~

Both of their phones vibrated.

Shen Qiu checked and saw messages popping up one after another.

"Emergency notice: Due to the recent unstable public security and frequent conflicts, the Red Alliance has issued a special order to put all administrative districts into a state of martial law. All residents are requested not to stay outside for too long unless necessary."

"Emergency Notice: In order to cope with the increasingly unstable situation, the Red Alliance has signed a special administrative order to recall all reserve members and veterans. At the same time, recruitment points will be set up at the entrances of various streets. We look forward to your joining us."

"Emergency notice: Due to the impact of natural disasters and climate, prices have fluctuated to a certain extent. Please do not panic. The Red Alliance will adjust and resolve the fluctuations as soon as possible."

"Mr. Shen Qiu, I am Director Zhao Anyuan of the Holy Sound Welfare Home in the City of Clear Sky. Due to the recent surge in prices, the welfare home has been severely impacted and many children are not getting enough to eat. If it is convenient for you, could you donate some money? I would be very grateful."

Shen Qiu looked at the last text message with a frown on his face.

Shengyin Welfare Home is the largest welfare home in Clear Sky City and it is also where he grew up.

He didn't expect that the welfare home was also affected, and the situation seemed to be very bad, otherwise they would not have sent information to these orphans.

Just as Shen Qiu was lost in thought, Tang Kexin's phone rang.

Tang Kexin immediately answered the phone and started chatting with the person on the other end.

"I'm fine, Mom."

"Um."

"Yes, I understand."

"I'm on the Jiuhuan Shengbei Viaduct and am now walking towards the emergency exit. I will be off the viaduct soon."

"Um."

After a brief chat, Tang Kexin hung up the phone.

Shen Qiu said to Tang Kexin in a low voice.

"It's safe now. Once we get off the emergency exit, we'll go our separate ways."

"Someone will come to pick me up soon. Don't you want to come with me? I can give you a ride. The situation is very chaotic right now."

Tang Kexin said softly.

"No."

Shen Qiu refused directly. He didn't want to have anything to do with Tang Kexin.

"Okay, but I have some latest news here, would you like to hear it?"

Tang Kexin looked at Shen Qiu with a smile.

Shen Qiu didn't say anything, which was a disguised consent.

Tang Kexin did not hide anything and spoke to Shen Qiu.

"The Red Alliance is now under martial law, with guards patrolling along the way. If they weren't afraid of causing panic, they would have imposed a curfew long ago. Also, if someone interrogates you after you return, you must not tell the truth or report it. Recently, the Red Alliance set up a new department called KPI, and all those who have returned from missing will be taken away. Some of those who were taken away have been released, some have been put under surveillance, and some have been taken away."

After Tang Kexin said this, she suddenly paused.

This couldn't help but make Shen Qiu frown.

Then Tang Kexin said solemnly.

"I was executed. My mother couldn't explain the specific reason, but she has asked my father to cover up my disappearance. You'd better be prepared. Someone will definitely come to investigate you."

"Thanks for the reminder, I understand."

After listening to this, Shen Qiu fell silent, and spoke after a few minutes.

Tang Kexin just smiled and said nothing more.

Soon the two of them came down from the overpass through the emergency exit. Shen Qiu waved to Tang Kexin and walked towards the street ahead without looking back.

Then he swiped a shared bicycle and rode slowly forward.

Tang Kexin stood there, looking at Shen Qiu's leaving back, the smile on her face becoming brighter.

Shen Qiu rode his bicycle forward on the brightly lit street. It was just past seven in the evening, and this time was usually the busiest time of the night.

But now the streets seemed very deserted, with only a few people walking around. And everyone looked hurried and walked very fast.

However, there are a large number of patrol guards along the way, and the main road intersections are guarded by fully armed soldiers and chariots.

The whole city gives people a feeling that a storm is about to come.

Shen Qiu rode his bicycle to avoid the main roads as much as possible and rode towards home along the secondary roads.

More than two hours later, Shen Qiu rode his bicycle to the gate of Xiangyuan Community and parked the shared bicycle.

At this time, at the gate of the community, two guards saw Shen Qiu and walked over.

"Hello, sir!"

Shen Qiuxin was startled and then raised his head to look over.

The person he was talking to was a young girl in her twenties with bangs and a young face, wearing a blue uniform. She was obviously a newcomer. Her partner was a middle-aged man with a stubbled face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"What is it?"

Shen Qiu replied calmly.
