It is obvious that there are few materials in the library, and there are more than 300 people. Although the "quality" is relatively high, it is hard to say how long this stability will last.
Sam also knew what JD meant, and the four of them had exchanged ideas with each other early on.
But he insisted on staying inside.
"Don't forget, the weather forecast said that New York may be hit by the front of the storm in the future, and the temperature will be lower at that time."
"Also, there may be lunatics wandering around outside who shoot casually..."
"We can stay here for at least five more days, but if we leave here, we may lose our lives in one night."
In his opinion, the situation outside is uncertain, and leaving the library is tantamount to betting his life on the gambling table.
The three of Laura pondered for a while, and finally suppressed the urge to go out and ask for help.
It is still too exciting for high school students like them to gamble with their own lives against the weather that may worsen in time.
It's better to be steady.
However, the four of them decided to hold on to it, but it didn't mean that the others would also be able to hold on.
Several youths in their twenties suddenly stood up.
"The ice outside has frozen. We are going to Staten Island. Who wants to go with us?"
A police officer was also among those who spoke.
Although everyone stayed in the library for a short time, many people couldn't help but wanted to escape here.
It’s too insecure here, the frozen corpses outside seem to be telling them that if you continue to stay here, you will only become corpses like them...
As soon as the young people finished speaking, many people stood up from various places in the library.
Squatting Sam feels like there are legs in all directions.
Seeing so many people, Laura couldn't help being a little shaken. It was Sam who quietly took her hand and shook his head slightly to dispel her thoughts.
It's not that no one stood up to stop these people.
The gorilla-like policeman stood up and advised his colleagues and other people to calm down.
It's a pity that under such circumstances, few people are still stable.
No one can stop a person who is really going to die.
Police officer Sam and the gorilla watched dozens of large teams bring their own supplies and went downstairs, and then there was the sound of glass breaking not long after.
One by one, people walked out into the ice and snow.
At this moment, Sam also saw many people coming out of other tall buildings around him.
He and Laura looked at each other. It was obvious that those people were going to Staten Island.
Although the radio specifically reminded the public not to go out on their own initiative, but just a few words like this can't persuade everyone...
The gorilla policeman sighed and looked at the backs of those people who were getting further and further away: "Now we can only pray for them."
……
Wang Lei glanced at the number of rescued people reported by each team, and found that the number of rescued teams had exceeded the full load of the team. He picked up the microphone and spoke through the radio: "All teams stop rescue work and get closer to me as soon as possible."
"The convoy has reached the full load standard, and we will transport the rescued survivors back to Washington, and we will build a safe camp for the rest..."
Hearing Wang Lei's call, the other teams that were on the move quickly returned, but the three of Jack hesitated for a moment, and continued to drive toward the northeast of Manhattan.
Wang Lei immediately noticed their abnormality in the positioning: "Jack, car No. 203, you have seriously deviated from the safe route, return immediately, return immediately."
Jack gasped and turned on his radio switch: "NO, Mr. Captain, I'm sorry for disobeying your orders, but I have reasons to go deeper."
Wang Lei frowned: "I know about you, and no one knows what your son's condition is now, but if you go so recklessly deep, you will only bring danger to yourself!"
Although this remark made sense, Jack just kept apologizing on the radio and showed no intention of returning.
Seeing that Wang Lei couldn't be persuaded at all, he sighed and stopped persuading.
Without Wang Lei chattering on the side of the road, the speed of the three of Jack was even faster. They twisted the accelerator of the sled car and headed straight to Manhattan in the northeast direction.
Soon, the three of them left Staten Island and sailed onto the frozen New York Harbor. From time to time, several frozen freighters could be seen on the flat ice.
Frank looked at the urban area that was getting farther and farther behind him, and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. It would be much safer to reach the open ice.
He said loudly to Jack in front: "If I had known that there are so many nervous shooters here, I would not have come with you!"
Jason nodded in agreement, the situation here was beyond their imagination.
After all, no matter how cold the weather is, they also have time-traveling protective clothing. As long as there is electricity, they will survive the cold, but this thing can't stop bullets...
However, in New York right now, there doesn't seem to be a lot of things, but there are the most psychopathic gunmen. They just passed through Staten Island all the way, and they got no less than ten explosions.
Every time it meant a psychotic shooter got dealt with.
"If we can go back safely, we will also be your son's godfather!"
Jack held the front of the car with both hands, and laughed loudly: "No problem! That boy Sam will be very happy!"
Frank also laughed: "I also think he will be very happy then."
While the three big men were chatting and laughing, the sled quickly approached the frozen Statue of Liberty. It can be said that Manhattan is close at hand.
Jack restrained his smile, turned off the accelerator and sprinted again.
boom!
The sled accelerated.
The wind and snow blowing all around, if not for wearing helmets, it is estimated that the three of them would not even be able to open their eyes now.
"Look ahead! There are a lot of people there!"
Frank pointed far away at the streets of Manhattan, and the binoculars he was holding could see many people moving there.
Jason also picked up the binoculars: "It's not the most difficult time yet, it seems that there are still many survivors in Manhattan."
Jack also felt a little bit more hopeful in his heart. His son was smart, and with so many people who survived, Sam must also live well.
"They probably want to evacuate to the south. It seems that the migration is going smoothly...?" Frank's words suddenly got stuck.
Jason trembled suddenly, and stammered, "The gun... the gun shot!"
"Someone killed someone with a gun on a tall building!"
"Survivors on the street have scattered!"
Listening to the explanation of the two, Jack suddenly lost his confidence...
On the opposite bank facing the three of them.
The survivors who had just gathered were screaming and running away.
Many people thought that the tsunami and cooling had killed most of the gunmen, but now it seems that they were thinking too beautifully.
Neurogunners are just waiting for their prey to come out of their dens.
Is this not?
Now they have just emerged, and they have received a fatal blow.
……
Officer Lund broke the glass and hid in a building with other people who had left the library.
"We can only hide here for a while!" Officer Lund took out his pistol, checked the room, and then signaled to the dozens of people following him to take a rest.
Everyone has been walking for several hours, and walking in this kind of ice and snow is especially tiring, and several people fell asleep at once.
Police officer Lund continued to briefly search the upper floors of the building to confirm that there were no hidden people in the building.
Then he returned to the floor just now.
Walking to the window and looking up at the sky, Officer Lund could tell at a glance that the sky was much darker than before, and it should be getting dark.
"We can only go here today, and the port is further ahead. There is no shelter on it, and we will be frozen to death at night."
Lund announced to everyone.
Those who were still awake had no objection to this decision. Many of them silently took out something to swallow, and then found a place to sleep with their arms folded.
Less than half a day after leaving the library, they already felt difficult.
It is not easy to stick to the library, but it seems even more difficult to come out and ask for help.
Lund sighed, arranged for a few young men who were still energetic to take turns to guard, and fell asleep himself.
……
Washington.
Beginning during the day, the evacuation of residents has officially started.
Although Baker and the others stretched their hips a bit, when they recognized the reality and knew that they were facing a crisis of life and death, their abilities were quite sufficient.
Taking advantage of the close cooperation of various departments and the awareness of the people fleeing for their lives, the evacuation work in Washington went quite smoothly.
Although judging from the scene, it seems that it has become a mess, but judging from the results, many people successfully drove out of the city and fled further south.
But no matter when, there will be people who are left behind.
Lucy was spinning around in a hurry in the hospital at this time, and a black nurse was beside her with a tangled expression.
She has been back in the hospital since saying goodbye to her husband Jack.
Because here is a little patient she has been thinking about - Peter.
A little boy with a tumor.
When she was hiding from the FBI in the hospital, her main job was to take care of this little boy.
"Lucy, the evacuated police are already waiting outside..." The nurse looked at the ward at the end of the corridor and lowered her voice as much as possible.
"Everyone ran and this was probably the last chance to evacuate."
"Peter he..."
Lucy's expression was struggling.
Now both the patients and the doctors in the entire hospital have been evacuated. She and the nurse in front of her are the last two staff members, and Peter in the ward behind him is the last patient.
"Peter can only leave in an ambulance in his condition, as you know."
Now she could either abandon Peter and let the little boy wait to die alone and desperately in the ward, or take Peter away, but without an ambulance, the little boy would definitely not be able to persist.
Lucy held her head, struggling inwardly.
The nurse said: "I left a message for the County Ambulance Center, but there is no reply yet. In addition, I also left a message for the rescue channel of the Mutual Rescue Society. If the situation permits, they said they would come here to have a look."
"However, they also said that their large forces are now in New York, so they may not be able to come..."
After struggling in her heart for a long time, Lucy decided to wait for a while, "You go away first, Peter and I will continue to wait."
The two hugged and said goodbye.
Lucy watched the sleigh cart go away in the heavy snow outside the window, the lights became farther and farther away, and disappeared after a while.
In the huge space, only she and Peter were left.
Accompanying them, only snowflakes.
Possibly, and death.
……
Navigator space station.
Liu Peiqiang stood in front of the window, looking at the earth below.
Even in the night hemisphere, he can still see the storm clouds floating in the atmosphere with his naked eyes, especially in some areas where lightning is common, often dozens of kilometers away when they are bright.
Even though he came from a wandering time and space and was used to weird weather, it is still hard to imagine how bad the weather is on the surface of this time and space...
Chapter 268 Someone is coming
Liu Peiqiang stared blankly at the earth outside the window.
Although it had been a few days, he was still uncomfortable with the fact that he was performing a mission in another time and space.Especially the earth in this time and space looked very strange, completely unlike the blue earth in his childhood memories.
"That looks spectacular, the first time I've seen it, bro."
