It sounded like Yi seemed to be muttering something in a low voice, vaguely the word "fish bone". "Fish bones?" Huaiji didn't react for a moment and followed his gaze to the city in the distance that was flooded by sea water. There were only scattered debris floating on the gray water surface, and there was no trace of a fish bone. He unconsciously rubbed the black lines on his arm with his fingertips and said in a low voice: "The red thing I saw in the water tank just now is not an ordinary rust stain." He paused, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, "When we were stunned by the rain, the fish bones flashed in my mind." Huaiyin's face turned pale instantly: "You mean... The things in the water tank are related to the fish bones?" "Let the tiger return home..." He Xi muttered and repeated, shuddering suddenly, "You mean, this thing did not come from the mall, but came in from the outside? If we wash the dirty water into the sea, isn't it equivalent to..." "It is equivalent to finding a bigger petri dish for it." Yihong answered in a dry voice. He turned off the fire hydrant and watched the water wind down the stairwell, form a trickle on the ground, and finally pour into the sea outside through the broken window of the mall. "The seawater is full of organic matter, and there are countless sunken ships and ruins... If this thing spreads in the sea..." Huaiji suddenly remembered the water and debris floating under his feet when he was chased by the dummy - rotten cloth, bloated books, and even half a rubber tire. At that time, I just felt disgusting, but now that I think about it, those things may have become the nourishment for the dummy to grow. "Then what should we do now?" Huaiji's voice tightened and he looked at Yisi, "We can't just watch it spread, right?" Yisi said nothing, and his eyes fell on an inconspicuous iron box in the corner of the top floor. It was a fire hydrant supporting equipment. In addition to water pipes, there were also several rolls of tarpaulin and a fire ax. He suddenly walked over, picked up the ax, weighed it, and then bent down to look at the tarps. "Like?" Huaiyin looked at him doubtfully. "The holes in the water tank are man-made." Yi Xi suddenly said, with a firm tone, "The worker dummy I saw on the third floor just now has fresh rust on the wrench in his hand. And the edges of the cracks in the water tank are very neat, and it doesn't look like they were caused by natural corrosion." Yihong was startled: "You mean... Someone deliberately released this thing?" "In other words, someone is studying it." Yisi pointed to the logo on the tarp, which was a shield pattern that had never been seen before, with an Ω symbol engraved in the middle. "The fire-fighting equipment in this mall is specially made, and the specifications are much higher than that of ordinary malls. And the water tank, which is said to be a landscape waterfall, is actually made of anti-corrosion titanium alloy - this kind of material is usually only found in chemical laboratories." Huaiji suddenly remembered the mannequin nailed to the wall in the fitting room: "That mannequin... Is filled with hangers, could it be some kind of experiment?" At this point, he took a breath of cold air, "I'll go, biohazard? This is getting more and more wrong." "Most likely we are testing its 'infectiousness'." He swiped his fingertips across the edge of the fire ax. "Infected organic matter will be transformed. The dummy is plastic and the transformation speed is slow, so it became an observation sample. There are also a pile of whistles in the toy section. Most of the shelves are missing. They were not soaked in water, but were taken away." Several people looked at each other and saw the chill in each other's eyes. "Where is the person who took the goods?" He Xi asked, "Did he die or ran away?" "Maybe he's still around here." Yi Xi raised his eyes to look at the sea level, and could vaguely see several stranded fishing boats in the distance. "The explosion was too loud just now, maybe it has alarmed them." As soon as he finished speaking, a whistle suddenly sounded in the distance, shrill and piercing, especially clear in the empty rain curtain. Several people turned their heads to look at it at the same time. A speedboat with a black flag was approaching from the sea level. There were several figures in raincoats standing on the bow of the boat, holding binoculars in their hands and looking in the direction of the shopping mall. The pattern on the black flag was exactly the same as the Ω symbol on the tarpaulin. "They're here." Yi Si clenched the fire ax and his eyes suddenly turned cold. "It seems that not only did we fail to solve the problem, but we also attracted the real owner." Huaiji subconsciously touched his pocket, which contained a lighter picked up from the first floor. I wanted to use it to make a fire to keep warm, but now I just feel that my palms are hot. He looked at Yi Xi, who was also looking at him, with unquestionable determination in his eyes. "Huaiji, how long can your [Weiji] stay in the water?" Yisi suddenly asked. Huai Ji was stunned: "Is this how my ability is used?" Yi seemed to ignore his complaints: "We have to go down and completely destroy the water tank." He pointed to the stairwell, "Since those people are here, they must want to recycle this thing. We must completely inactivate it before they come up." Yi Hong frowned: "But we don't have tools that can destroy titanium alloy, and the fire ax cannot chop it at all." "Sea water can do it." Yi Xi's gaze returned to the fire hydrant, "The foundation of this building has been soaked in sea water for so long and has long since become loose. We used high-pressure water to hit the load-bearing columns of the atrium on the third floor, causing the entire atrium to collapse and press the water tank into the sea." "This is too risky!" Huai Yin said anxiously, "The whole building will collapse! We don't have time to run! And if we are soaked in the sea, isn't it just what they wanted?" "There's enough time." Yisi looked at the speedboat getting closer and closer, "It will be at least ten minutes before they land. I will use [air delay] to take you away. And I have already thought about your concerns - it must have restrictions, believe me." Yisi didn't explain where the so-called restrictions came from. "Why didn't you use it when I was chased just now?" Huai Ji muttered in a low voice, but did not object again. "Huaiji, you are responsible for hitting the load-bearing columns with the fire hydrants. Yihong, follow me to the third floor to fix the tarpaulin and wrap the water tank, trying not to let the debris scatter. Huaiyin, you and He Xi go to the boat and wait. When you hear the loud noise, immediately untie the rope and let's walk from the sea." "Walking from the sea? Wouldn't we just hit them?" He Xi's face turned pale. "I will take you out of the way first." "But..." "Don't forget, you still have paper figures." He Xiben wanted to argue, how could it be possible to hide his whereabouts with paper, and it was not an optical camouflage material. As soon as the words came to his lips, he suddenly understood. "Their target is the things in the water tank. As long as we are mixed in the water, they may not pay attention." Yi's voice was extremely calm. The distant siren sounded again, this time so close that it was almost within earshot. Huai Ji took a deep breath and picked up the fire hydrant nozzle again: "Okay, let's do it! But this is over, I want two cans of ice-cold Coke, no less than one sip!" With a rare slight curve in the corner of his mouth, he said: "Deal." The water from the fire hydrant spurted violently again. This time, it no longer washed away the dummy, but hit the load-bearing pillar of the atrium on the third floor. In the rumbling sound, cement fragments flew, the steel bars were exposed, and they groaned under the weight. Yi Si and Yi Hong rushed to the third floor carrying the tarpaulin. The sound of footsteps, the sound of water hitting, and the sound of distant sirens are intertwined, like a hasty and tragic overture. Huaiyin pulled He Xi and ran downstairs. When passing by the second floor, she looked back at the top floor. The figure in the rain curtain is small, but extremely determined. When the loud noise of the first load-bearing column breaking came, the speedboat had already docked, and several people in raincoats were rushing towards the mall with guns raised. "What kind of organization still carries guns?" On the third floor, Yi Si and Yi Honggang wrapped the water tank tightly with tarpaulin and tied it tightly with iron chains. Yisi looked at the black shadow getting closer and suddenly said to Yihong: "When it collapses, hold on to the tarpaulin." Yihong was stunned: "Why?" "Because we have to take it with us and sink together." Yisi's smile was a little blurred in the smoke, "Now that the tiger has returned to the mountain, we have to bury it into the seabed with our own hands." The second load-bearing column broke, and the whole building began to shake violently. Huaiji threw away the fire hydrant, turned around and ran to the third floor, but was stopped by a suspicious voice: "Go to the boat! Don't come over!" "But you..." "We will be fine." A similar voice penetrated the shaking building, with reassuring power, "Don't forget, I have [free time]." Huaiji gritted his teeth, turned and rushed to the first floor. The moment he jumped onto the boat, the mall atrium collapsed. The huge roar caused the sea water to surge, and he saw a black shadow wrapped in a tarp falling from the third floor, crashing into the sea like a meteor, causing water to rise into the sky. Immediately afterwards, another black shadow jumped into the water, and in the splashing waves, there seemed to be a flash of fire. "Set the boat!" Huaiyin shouted and untied the boat rope, and He Xi had already started the engine. "Can this thing you modified from an electric drill work?" He Xi was full of doubts. "If you have the ability, try rowing faster than it with your hands." As he said that, Huaiji held a car washing high-pressure water gun, immersed one end in the water, and pointed the other end backward to accelerate the boat. The people on the speedboat were stunned by the sudden collapse. By the time they reacted, Huaiji had already driven the boat into the foggy sea. He looked back and saw the ruins of the mall sinking slowly in the sea. In the turbid waters, there were two vague figures dragging something, slowly heading towards the deep sea. Huaiji held the rudder tightly, the rain hitting her face, and she felt inexplicably worried. "We'll meet again, right?" He whispered to the sea. In the distance, there seemed to be a vague response from the sea, which was very similar to Yihong's usual laughter.
Maybe it's because I haven't written too much [crying] I was planning to give up, but a reader kept urging me to write more and encouraged me to help me promote the book [crying] [crying] [crying] I'm so touched.
I wrote it last year, interrupted it, and then started writing it again, but there has been no improvement, and there are no book reviews [awkward laugh][awkward laugh][awkward laugh]
