The island nation of Sendai.
Takagi Akiko was sitting on the sofa eating snacks and watching Doraemon on TV, unable to take his eyes away.
The high-intensity work has made her lose the motivation to go out and play. Now she is at home on vacation, so she hides in the house watching TV and eating snacks. This is the supreme enjoyment without having to think about other worries.
Buzz buzz…
A strange sound sounded, and the TV screen began to flicker, which made her feel something was wrong. Immediately afterwards, the phone received a message.
"earthquake?"
The warning message on her phone made her heart shrink violently. Before she put down her phone, things in the room began to beat.
Without thinking, Takagi Akiko immediately threw away the snacks in her hands and rushed out of the room without even putting on her shoes.
The shaking as if it was the end of the world made her heart clench.
One minute, she was still immersed in the relaxation of the cartoon, but at this moment, her body was dominated by fear.
She has experienced many earthquakes, and every time she feels panic from the bottom of her heart, as if she is being strangled by death and about to suffocate in the next second. There was only one voice in her heart, leave the house and go to a safe place.
The moment she rushed out of the house, Takagi Akiko felt that the whole world became brighter.
After running to the nearest open space, Takagi Akiko fell to the ground, her face pale and she was gasping for breath. It was like defeating death again, but she was already out of power.
More and more people gathered in the open space where she was, and everyone had panic and fear on their faces.
The world was shaking, and the sound of houses collapsing filled her mind. In less than half a minute, she experienced a moment of life and death.
Her unshoeed feet had been cut by gravel, but she didn't know it. What was a prosperous area not long ago has been devastated.
Looking at this scene, her eyes were a little dull.
Broken walls, wails of pain, faces with fear and people crying in the ruins. Desolation, fear and despair filled everyone's hearts.
"Monitoring shows that an 8.9-magnitude earthquake occurred in the Northeastern Sea, with the epicenter about 150 kilometers away from Sendai."
The staff of the island country’s Meteorological Administration looked a little sad.
After the Marching Ant Company issued the earthquake warning, the Meteorological Administration paid close attention to various earthquake stations. We strive to send earthquake warnings to ordinary people as soon as possible. Of course, we also hope that this warning is false news.
Unexpectedly, a super earthquake happened.
This location is in the same sea area as the big earthquake that year. It is not far from the location of the last magnitude 7.8 earthquake.
"Publish earthquake news and tsunami warning." Masa Kato looked extremely ugly and had to give this order.
It's not the worst case scenario yet. He just hopes that a tsunami won't happen. Otherwise, at this level, coastal areas may be hit again.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, the Japan Meteorological Agency, and the United States Geological Survey issued tsunami warnings at almost the same time.
The news of the earthquake in the island country instantly attracted the attention of the world.
A tsunami warning has been issued, and people living on the coast of the island country are panicking. Many people have vivid memories of the tsunami that year, and now natural disasters have struck again.
Not caring too much, some people drove towards the nearest high ground.
Kishimoto looked at the fish in the box with a smile on his face. There is no doubt that this voyage is a huge harvest. As long as it docks, this time, it can make double the usual money.
For him, it was a great harvest.
"Captain, we received a tsunami warning." Just as Kishimoto was happy, a crew member ran over: "A major underwater earthquake occurred. 150 kilometers east of Sendai, the Meteorological Agency issued a tsunami warning."
Upon hearing this, Kishimoto's hair stood up. He can already see the port, tell him a tsunami warning now
"Turn around, turn around immediately, go to sea at full speed, don't touch the shore." Kishimoto did not dare to hesitate. Thinking of the tsunami disaster, he felt chills in his heart: "Everyone go back to the cabin, immediately, immediately."
Without thinking, Kishimoto ran directly to the rudder, turned the ship's bow, and rushed out at full speed toward the sea.
He also had an ominous premonition in his heart. The big earthquake that year almost killed him. Now when the earthquake and tsunami are mentioned, he has a shadow in his heart.
Like him, the ship that was preparing to dock immediately turned around after receiving the warning.
The ships on the coast have also set sail. A scene of hundreds of ships appeared at the port, including some large ships.
What they have to do now is to take the boat to the open sea to avoid the tsunami.
Miyagi Prefecture.
Yasui looked at the traffic jam on the road with despair on his face. We just escaped an earthquake, and now a tsunami warning has been issued.
The source of the earthquake was similar to that of the major earthquake that year.
If a big tsunami occurs, their place will be the first target.
In the last big disaster, their place was the hardest hit area. The scene from that year reappeared, and the road was blocked by escaping cars.
Looking at the mountains in the distance, they are so close, but without a car, it is impossible to rush there.
Various people on the road were cursing and escaping in their cars. The road congestion became even worse, making it almost impossible to move.
He regretted a little, why didn't he leave here when the Army Ant Company issued a super earthquake warning. But at that time, his friends persuaded him to go together and treat it as a trip.
Now it is impossible to leave quickly.
Seeing the scene in front of him, he knew that he couldn't waste time. Thinking of this, Anjing also got out of the car and ran towards the mountains in the distance. Now if someone is willing to trade his bicycle for his car, he will agree without hesitation.
The road has been completely blocked, and all the people running for their lives on the road have panic written on their faces, hating their parents for not giving them two more legs.
The tsunami is approaching, and the outline of the tsunami can be seen on the sea level. The moment you enter the harbor, the funnel-like harbor makes the waves get bigger and bigger.
On the seawall, you can already see the waves building high on the sea level.
Akashi stood on the mountain, watching the waves coming by the sea, with a calm look on his face.
Just looking at this kind of wave, I'm afraid the disaster will not be small. This scene reminded him of the tsunami that year. He had experienced life and death once before, and that feeling was still vivid in his mind.
In the face of natural disasters, human beings are as weak as ants and have no power to resist.
Boom!
The sea water poured in, and a bigger wave formed, rushing into the land. It was unstoppable. The sea water had spread towards the land. At this time, it was too late for anyone who wanted to escape.
The big boat was lifted up, rushed into the land, and hit a house hard. Then the house and the big boat were submerged in the huge waves.
The vehicles parked on the road have been lifted up by the waves. As the waves drift, more and more people gather together, just like nature's garbage.
Looking at his home turned into a vast ocean, Akashi's face was expressionless, which was a kind of indifference towards death and disaster.
The tsunami had arrived, and he could clearly see that the vehicles that had no time to escape were being swallowed up by the sea water and disappearing.
There were many people with him, and their screams and cries echoed on the mountain.
The home they depended on for survival was once again flooded by the sea. Panic, confusion, and at a loss are all unstoppable. I just hope that there will be no disaster in heaven.
