Chapter 2, A Grievous Vendetta
Could it be an earthquake
"Great Disintegration Technique? Do you think this is a game? Or are you reading a web novel? I must go save my parents"
This implies that he has most likely already conceived some horrific and unimaginable scheme, intending to put me in a state of despair and ecstasy, making me regret for the rest of my life the foolish act of sending a mass confession text from his phone.
What do you want to say? I warn you! Do not interfere with my affairs, otherwise, even if we are relatives, there will be no room for leniency.
I finally noticed that there was another person in the room, namely the one I had rescued
At this moment, the teaching building was filled with the sounds of wailing and howling, as all the students and teachers rushed out of the classrooms at the fastest speed
The screen shifted to another scene, revealing a morgue filled with countless horrifying corpses, the number of which certainly exceeded one hundred, sending chills down one's spine
Are you waiting for your younger siblings again
Why is the building gone
Today is Saturday, and my parents should be at home
While I was confronting my cousin Ning Yue, a sudden deep rumble echoed, the ground shook violently, and the entire teaching building swayed slightly
I looked at this cousin with some suspicion, yet I surprisingly did not notice any signs of him gritting his teeth; instead, he appeared quite cheerful.
I cast a wary glance at him, and Ning Yue's cousin chuckled, saying: "I won't concern myself with your early romance; I have something else to discuss with you! Do you remember the incident not long ago when you sent group messages using my phone?"
What the hell! What is going on? I have never heard of this building being slated for demolition. Moreover, even if it were to be demolished, our family would never be the kind to resist; we would simply move happily!
When I desperately carried the person from the bottom of the pit, the half of the old building shook and then collapsed with a loud crash. At this point, there was truly no hope left. I was almost forgetting that I was still carrying someone on my back, and just as I was about to rush down again to look for others, the person behind me weakly said, "There is no need to go down anymore; under the Great Collapse Technique, no life can survive. Even I have been shattered in my essence, with at least half of my soul extinguished, and my strength has fallen to less than thirty percent."
It seems to be in the direction of the Central Mall
A few days ago, I took my cousin Ningyue's phone and sent a confession message to all the girls in his class, including the most beautiful English teacher. My cousin hasn't bothered me for several days, but I believe he won't let this go. Given this guy's malicious character, the longer it drags on, the more severe his retaliation will be.
It seems that something significant has happened
This is a placeholder text and does not contain any translatable content.
You do not need to go, because your parents ... ...
I could not suppress my irritation and fear, and I began to roar loudly, but then everything went dark before my eyes, and I lost all consciousness
Our home is not even part of a community; it is merely an old building that has surpassed twenty-five years of age. Due to the small size of the land, which is surrounded by several high-end properties and does not face the street, there is hardly any possibility for construction, nor does it hold any commercial value, which is why it has not attracted the interest of developers
My home is very close to the school; it takes only about ten minutes to walk there leisurely. When I run at full speed, I can see my five-story old building in just two or three minutes.
I could hardly believe my eyes as I rushed towards that old building's site. When I pounced onto the spot that had formed a noticeable pit, I was shocked to see a person lying on their back at the bottom of the pit. I paid no mind to the half-collapsed old building nearby and quickly jumped down. Although the person lying at the bottom of the pit was not my parents, I wanted to know what had just happened; at the very least, he was a witness.
It seems to be the direction of my home
I do not know why, but I suddenly feel very anxious
An earthquake! An explosion! ... Help ... Various cries for help resounded through the air
He suddenly smiled, reached out to point at the television, and without using the remote control, the news began to play on the screen, reporting precisely on the collapse of our old building.
Before the words had left my mouth, I had already run more than ten meters away. I would rather let Xu Liang down than continue to stay with this devil of a cousin. Ning Yue called out to me several times from behind, but I did not dare to look back
I struggled in anger several times, yet found myself helpless. In the depths of my fury, I was completely unaware that the means by which I had saved that person was nearly akin to magic, astonishingly difficult to imagine
What do you want to do
"How loud! Is something exploding at www.hetushu.com.com?"
Although the old building of my home is not completely gone, what difference does it make to me? Even if my eyes are bloodshot, what I see will not change; that old building of my home has collapsed
You are awake? You are indeed bold to dare to rush down like that to save someone
When I saw that old building of ours, my eyes immediately widened to the point of becoming somewhat bloodshot, and my whole body began to tremble. As far as my gaze could reach, the several high-end properties surrounding my home remained unscathed, except for our old building... it had lost half of its structure, and coincidentally, my home was situated in that half.
I was solely focused on wanting to save my parents, shouting, "Let go of me!"
He looked very unwell, his face pale and terrifying, coughing incessantly, with bloodstains on his chest, clearly having coughed up blood several times just moments ago. Restraining me had evidently cost him considerable strength, and it made him cough lightly a few more times. Despite appearing extremely weak, he still exuded a remarkable "presence," as if he were inherently different from everyone else, lofty and possessing a unique aura.
I opened my eyes, still feeling a bit dizzy. When the memories from before I fainted surged into my mind, I suddenly jumped up and shouted to the *book*: "I must go save my parents!" Before I could take my first step, he smiled slightly and pointed a finger at me from a distance, rendering my body immobile.
My cousin Ningyue and I were momentarily stunned. I reacted slightly faster and immediately shouted, "It seems to be in the direction of my home. I'll go ahead first. Ningyue, please let Xu Liang know that I won't wait for her..."
In the news, the cause of the old building's collapse was attributed to a gas leak, and the number of casualties was only nine. The host, in his usual indifferent tone, stated, "Because it is Saturday, most people have to work overtime, so there were not many left at home during the explosion." Just as I let out a sigh of relief, still holding onto a glimmer of hope, that person beckoned with a finger and gave me a slight nod.
I felt as if I were almost mad, not even bothering to look at the red lights on the road. I hurriedly took two steps and almost instantly appeared downstairs at my home. I covered my knee, gasping for breath; even running ten thousand meters wouldn't have left me in such a state, but my current emotions were too tumultuous to calm down. The old building where I lived had lost half of its structure, looking as if someone had punched it from the sky, reducing half of the building to dust.
