Volume Four Chapter 1074 Mandarin Ducks in the Rain(1/2)
Volume 15: Start over from the beginning Chapter 1074: The Mandarin duck in the rain
"Why haven't you been asleep yet?" Hu You came back from the restaurant and saw Liu Piaopiao and Hu Yantian sitting in the hall. He couldn't help but feel strange.
Eating Western food is really a very troublesome thing. After Hu You and Hua Runan finished their last dessert, it was already past 11 o'clock. Then they sent Hua Runan home and then returned to Wu Liang's place. It was almost a little. I thought everyone had rested so late, but I didn't expect that my parents were still sitting here.
"Come on, son, tell me how it's going to be today." Liu Piaopiao took Hu You's hand and went straight to the sofa, looking excited, as if he had found a treasure.
Hu You was speechless. But he also liked this feeling. In the past, every time he watched TV, he was always envious when he saw the parents in it asking about their children in this and that. Now he can finally feel it. It is a little annoying, but this is truly selfless concern!
"Mom, everyone says that it's an ordinary friend who's having dinner, so why not date?" Hu You said helplessly.
"Okay, okay, you're an ordinary friend. Let me tell you about your ordinary friend. Which girl is she from? What is her character and personality..."
After being caught by Liu Piaopiao for an hour, Hu You almost reported Hua Runan's measurements, and then he was liberated.
After taking a shower, I felt a little hungry. Hu You put on a pajamas and prepared to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.
"Brother Hu You, you are back." At the entrance of the corridor, he happened to run into Weiwei.
Because Hu You and Weiwei live in Wu Liang's appearance are brother and sister. So the two's rooms are next to each other. It is normal to meet in and out, but it is somewhat abnormal to run into each other when they meet. Because it is almost three o'clock now, as far as Hu You knows, Weiwei's work and rest time has always been quite normal.
"Weiwei, why haven't you been sleeping yet?" Hu You said strangely. Is it Christmas Eve tonight? Why are everyone in this room not sleeping?
"I can't sleep, so I go to the garden to water the flowers or something."
Watering flowers, it’s all the time, so who can water the flowers in the middle of the night?
"Weiwei, are you doing something? Don't be afraid. Tell me, no matter what it is, I will help you solve it. Is someone bullying you at school?"
"No, with Brother Hu You's name, no one dares to bully me?" said slightly.
Weiwei is the truth. Since killing Jing Lengfeng that time, Hu You's reputation in school has been very famous. Everyone knows that Weiwei is Hu You's sister, so no one dares to touch Weiwei.
Weiwei couldn't sleep because Hu You and Hua Runan went to Paramount for dinner. Weiwei was considered a person who had been entrusted with Hu You for a long time, and even knew Hu You earlier than Huang Shengyi. However, no love affair occurred between them, whether in the mirror world or in the real world.
Over the years, Weiwei's heart has long been filled with the shadow of Hu You. But due to her personality, she has never dared to tell Hu You, or even dared to let Hu You know. Women are always trapped by love, which is why Weiwei can't fall asleep.
In order not to worry Hu You, Weiwei continued: "I was just thinking about time synchronization, and I was upset when I thought about it for a while, and I just wanted to calm myself down."
"You, this kind of thing is not something you can be anxious if you don't sleep. It's very late, go to bed quickly." Hu You slapped Weiwei's head a few times with a funny look. He had never thought that Weiwei hadn't told the truth.
He cooked a bowl of noodles for himself and Hu You started eating it in big mouthfuls. The more expensive the food in the restaurant, the less full it is. This is really true.
"Hey, I have something to eat." Wu Liang first put in a head, and then sat down opposite Hu You. He was not polite at all, and directly took the noodles in Hu You's bowl. For many years, they had eaten in one pot, so it was normal for them to share a bowl.
"Master, why haven't you been sleeping?" This is the third time Hu You asked this tonight. It seems that tonight is a sleepless night.
"Make something in the laboratory and forget the time. I wanted to come to the kitchen to try my luck, but I didn't expect there was something to eat." Wu Liang said while eating noodles.
Inadvertently, Hu You discovered that Wu Liang had a lot of white hair. For many years, Wu Liang was the kind of person who stepped on the sky as a cover. If he hadn't been so worried in the past few months, how could he have white hair?
"Master, you should have more rest." Hu You suddenly felt.
Wu Liang seemed to have not heard Hu You's words, and after eating the last dough for a few bites, he turned around and left. He saw that he was not going upstairs, but probably went into the laboratory again.
When I woke up, it was another good weather. Bitian High Technology has just completed the time travel experiment and is on vacation. There is nothing to do with me, so Hu You planned to take a walk on the street.
The streets of the capital are always so lively, with people coming and going in a hurry. There are not many people who can be so leisurely towards Hu You. This is a modern fast-paced life. People in the city, no matter whether they are men or women, no matter what profession they are in or how much salary they earn every month, are under tremendous pressure. No one dares to relax, and once they relax, they will be caught up, copied, and then eliminated.
Survival is sometimes like fighting a war. Not only do you have to fight against people from all aspects, but more often, you have to fight with yourself.
I am tired, not only my body, but my heart is even more tired.
I found a tree foot in the street park. Hu You sat down and enjoyed his rare leisure. I recalled that I had been like these people who were full of colors, running around the clock, day and night, and staying with my family for a long time. Hu You's mood was a bit heavy.
It's raining?
A drop of water hit Hu You's head heavily. God's temper is really not very good. He changes his face as soon as he says he's changing his face. The sun was shining brightly just now, but it's raining heavily now.
It was quite hot, and it was good to rain a little. If Hu You were a few years younger, he would probably not dodge or hide, so he just sat down and drizzled him well.
But now, I'd better find a place to avoid it.
The rain was so heavy that everyone thought it was passing rain at first, but it was almost done after more than ten or twenty minutes. But as the heavy rain continued, people realized that they were wrong.
It was getting darker and rainier. The road surface had begun to accumulate water. In the low-lying areas, water even spread over the ankles.
"Hey, watch the news. The subway has been shut down due to heavy rain!" someone suddenly shouted in the crowd.
"No, how can I go home like this?" The person who had not realized the seriousness of the situation complained.
It just rains. No one has ever experienced such a natural phenomenon since childhood. No one has taken it seriously. The news of the subway suspension has only caused a lot of complaints.
But when the shopping malls that sheltered from the rain had water in, people realized that things seemed wrong. The shopping malls were so high that they had already flown into the water, so what about other places.
"Wow!"
Among the crowd sheltering from the rain, someone suddenly burst into tears and rushed out of the mall regardless of the heavy rain. There was a person close to him who heard his phone call just now. It turned out that the man's house collapsed because he couldn't stand the heavy rain. His family was still being crushed to the house.
"What's the use of him rushing back like this? You should call the police at this time."
Someone was talking sarcastic about it. As soon as he spoke, he was besieged. All kinds of abuse were poured into that guy, even harder than the heavy rain.
Hu You shook his head, squeezed into a corner where there were relatively few people in the crowd, and took out the phone.
"Weiwei, it's raining too much, there's nothing wrong with the family, right?" Hu You asked.
"I don't know, I'm in school. The school has been soaked for half a floor, and now we can't get out." Weiwei replied.
"Why don't you call me? You're fine?" Hu You said anxiously. He forgot that Weiwei was still going to school today.
"I'm fine, don't worry. Ah Hong and I are in the dormitory. There is food and water here, so you don't have to worry about me."
"That's good. You can stay in the dormitory. Now there is a little chaos outside. You'd better not go home. Call me if you have anything." Hu You reminded.
"Well, I understand." The other end of the phone responded obediently.
After hanging up the phone, Hu You called Wu Liang again. When Wu Liang received the call, he didn't know it was raining heavily outside. He told Hu You that everything in the small foreign building was specially designed, and no matter how heavy it rained or even earthquakes would be fine.
After hearing what Hu You said, Hu You was relieved. As long as there was nothing at home, it would be fine.
"Weiwei is at school and her home is well. It seems that there is nothing to worry about." Hu You murmured to himself. Just as he thought of putting up his phone, it rang again. It seemed that the call was Wu Liang who had just hung up the phone.
"Master, is there anything else?" Hu You answered the phone urgently and asked.
"Hu You, you can find a way to find Hai Ning'er. She is not at home and her phone cannot be connected. I am a little worried about her." Wu Liang's voice was obviously much more nervous than before. It was related to the only baby daughter, Wu Liang, a father, could be calm.
"Master, don't worry. I just called Weiwei and Weiwei said that she was good in the dormitory. I think Hai Ning'er should still be in school now." Hu You comforted.
"I was worried only at school." Wu Liang almost shouted: "You don't know how those schools were built. No, I have to take Hai Ning'er home first."
"Master, Master, listen to me. The streets are very messy now, so don't come out. Leave Hai Ning'er's affairs to me. I'm not far from the school now, so I'll pick Hai Ning'er and Wei Wei home. Just wait at home."
"That's it, that's OK."
Hu You hung up Guoliang's phone number and called Weiwei again. He planned to let Weiwei and Hai Ning'er meet up first, so that the two girls could take care of each other.
But I can still make a call just now, but now I can no longer make it. The phone calls are always busy, and maybe the base station is soaked in water.
Even Hu You was a little anxious. When he was talking to Weiwei just now, Hu You didn't react for a while. The dormitory where Weiwei lived came from an old building. Although the outer skin had been renovated, the roots were old. It is hard to say whether this kind of building that has been in old age for decades can withstand the heavy rain this time.
Without thinking too much, Hu You put on his cell phone and rushed into the rain. In order to comfort Wu Liang, Hu You said that he was very close to the school. In fact, Hu You came out to walk around casually. He took the subway and then got on the bus. At this time, he was really not close to the school at all.
At this time, the water accumulation on the road was much worse than before. The water in many places had already passed through the calf. There were almost no cars in the streets that were usually blocked, and even the taxi could not see the shadow.
"Hu You, get in the car quickly." A police car stopped in front of Hu You, and Hua Runan was stretched out from the window. Her car passed by here so by chance, and Hu You happened to run here so by chance.
It's really a pleasure for Hu You to run without having to rely on two feet.
"It's so heavy." Hu You wiped the water from his face. In just a few minutes, his body was already soaked.
"Wipe quickly. Where are you going to get into such a heavy rain?" Hua Runan handed Hu You a towel.
"Weiwei was trapped in the school. I heard that the water there had sink more than half of the building. I was afraid that she would be in danger and wanted to pick her up." Hu You said while wiping the water. This towel should usually be used by Hua Runan himself, with a faint fragrance on it.
"I'll send you there." Hua Runan turned her head without saying a word.
"Will it delay your business?" Hu You asked. Hua Runan drove a police car, which means she was performing official duties.
"It's okay, the business has been completed. I'm going to hand over to the police station. It's the same for sending you there first. Anyway, there's no one in the police station now."
Hua Runan turned on the radio all the way and also knew the trouble caused by the heavy rain. Now my colleagues knew that they were all going to the streets.
The heavy rain continued, and there were dead fires in the area where the road was not good. The police car driven by Hua Runan is a standard off-road vehicle with very good performance. The water of more than one meter deep rushed directly, without any problem.
Because Hu You was worried about Weiwei and Hai Ning'er, he kept calling the two of them after getting in the car, but it was never able to get in, so he was not in such a good mood and didn't talk much.
Hua Runan drove while watching Hu You from time to time. She didn't understand very well. Hu You had even lived in her house before, but when she got along with Hu You, she didn't see any problems. But now every time she saw Hu You, her heart was always beating faster and she was so nervous.
"It seems like a culvert coming out." Hu You called Weiwei again but failed. When he looked up at the road, he suddenly said.
"Yes." Hua Runan responded, not responding to what Hu You said.
"I'm afraid the water has risen there. Can this car pass?" Hu You said worriedly.
In fact, Hu You didn't know that the culvert in front had not only risen, but the water depth was three or four meters. Passers-by had discovered the problem before and called the relevant departments to warn them. However, the relevant departments had to deal with too many things and had not yet come to urgently inform the situation here.
Hua Runan looked at the car warning system and said, "This is not a warning section, it should be no problem."
While talking, the police car had reached the culvert without reducing its speed.
"No, the water is too deep and you can't get through, stop the car quickly." The rain was too heavy, and Hu You didn't find out what was happening there until the car quickly entered the culvert.
When Hua Runan heard Hu You's voice, she immediately stepped on the brakes. However, the car was too fast and the road was slippery again in the rain. The car could not stop and rushed straight into the culvert.
