Chapter 4 The Tragedy

The explosion just now did not cause any damage to the translucent shadow, and all the gravel and splashes passed through the translucent shadow directly.

David wanted to order the translucent shadow to come back, but he felt a sense of satisfaction coming from the translucent shadow, as if he had eaten something.

Outside he couldn't see, the translucent shadow was stopping ten meters away from him, and this distance was the maximum distance that the translucent shadow could leave him.

This position also happened to be the position of the gate where the bookstore completely disappeared. The invisible objects that no one could see were attracted by the translucent shadow, flew towards the translucent shadow and entered its body.

If anyone counts, it can be found that the number of these nothingness is exactly the number of deaths.

David feels that his connection with the translucent shadow is getting closer and closer. If the 2G network of the mobile phone used to connect with the translucent shadow before, it is like the 3G network connection that he is using at this time. Feel.

He didn't understand what was going on, but he knew that there was nothing wrong with the translucent shadow. Instead, it seemed like he got some benefit, so he didn't care about the translucent shadow.

After all, the time he got the translucent shadow was too short, so short that he didn't have the ability to really understand the translucent shadow.

David tried to stand up, the injury on his back was a little painful, but it didn't matter much, and he walked to the bathroom door where the metal door was lost.

Stepping on the stagnant water on the ground, he walked carefully, and the ground was full of debris after the explosion.

Suddenly he stopped, because he saw a metal cylinder-shaped object, the thickness was just enough to hold in one hand, and the length was about twenty centimeters. blocked.

In this chaotic environment, this metal cylinder is extremely clean, so clean that one has to pay attention to it.

No matter how ignorant David was about this world, he knew that this was not an ordinary item, so he bent down and picked it up.

He didn't have the intention of possessing this metal cylinder, but he thought that he couldn't leave it here, and of course there was an element of curiosity in it.

Putting the metal cylinder in his pocket, he walked out of the bathroom. Compared with the interior of the bathroom, the damage in the bookstore lobby was more serious.

The entire bookstore was filled with choking smoke. The transparent glass wall and door outside the bookstore had disappeared, and large red blood clots, as well as complete or damaged human bodies, were scattered inside and outside the store.

When the personal flying shuttle collides with the crowd, the crowd cannot escape in time due to the excessive speed of the personal flying shuttle and the crowding around.

The personal flying shuttle eventually disintegrated and its backup power source exploded, leaving the area with few survivors.

David felt nauseated. He knew that there were nearly a hundred people gathered outside the bookstore, but at this time there were only a dozen complete corpses, and the most were metal fragments and bloody pieces that could be seen everywhere.

His mind went blank, but he was quickly awakened by a miserable moan.

David was about to step forward to help the person who was still struggling on the ground, but he heard the siren from the air, and then he saw two blue and white police patrol flying vehicles approaching.

He couldn't help but stop, this kind of injury is best done by professional people, since the rescue came, he didn't need to intervene.

A blue-and-white police patrol boat hovered over the road in front of the bookstore, and a dozen uniformed police officers jumped from it.

All the police officers were stunned by the sight in front of them, and immediately became busy with various shouts and shouts.

David, the only one who could stand completely at the scene, was paid special attention, and the police came towards him.

"Are you all right?" a middle-aged policeman asked David while checking David's identity bracelet with the instrument in his hand.

David shook his head, he didn't speak because he saw Jessica's body.

The girl who walked with her in the morning fell in a pool of blood, and a metal fragment of a personal flying shuttle was inserted into her heart.

"I'm Officer Bob, the medical staff will be here soon, and they will take care of your injury!" The middle-aged police officer Bob looked at the instrument in his hand, knowing that he was still a student, and seeing David's expression, he couldn't help but David gave David a comforting pat.

David has no memory of Jessica, but he knows that Jessica and his predecessor are at least friends, otherwise he would not come to the bookstore together.

He couldn't tell how he felt about Jessica's death, neither sadness nor sadness. At this time, what he felt most in his heart was fear, a kind of extreme fear.

If he hadn't sensed danger from the translucent shadow, there would have been him among the corpses lying on the ground.

He nodded blankly to Officer Bob, but still looked at Jessica's body.

The second batch of white ambulances arrived, and David was surprised by the city's quick response.

Just three minutes after the explosion here, the police and medical staff have all arrived.

This did not make David happy, because it further explained the danger here. It is precisely because of the frequent dangers that the police and medical staff have such a rapid response ability.

He thought of those buildings without windows and the cities he saw. Beauty is not important, but solidity is the most important.

A paramedic treated the wound on his back and helped him apply some medicine to the burn on his hand.

After being given by the medical staff that his health was not serious, David did not get on the ambulance to the hospital.

Part of the reason is that he wants to go home immediately, which is the safest place for him, and another reason is that the wounded people transported to the ambulance aircraft are all seriously injured, and those who can scream are in better condition. .

Knowing that his body was fine, he didn't want to experience this tragic situation again.

Officer Bob left the contact information of the identity bracelet on David's wrist so that the police could contact him later, so that he could leave the scene and leave the bookstore.

When he left the bookstore, he sensed a translucent shadow following him, and none of the police could find it.

With a distance of three kilometers, David ran all the way back to his home, completely ignoring the look of embarrassment from the pedestrians on the road.

As soon as he entered the house, he immediately closed the door heavily, and then he leaned on the door like this.

Although he was a person who died once, the danger today still gave him a lot of fright.

He sat on the ground weakly, from the peaceful world to this dangerous world that he didn't understand, he felt a deep panic.

The novelty of coming to this world for the first time was shattered by the sudden danger, especially the tragic death of Jessica he knew in front of him, a feeling he had never experienced in his previous life.

At this time, he most hoped that someone could comfort him, but with his unrecovered memory, he didn't know who to talk to, not to mention that his transmigration was his biggest secret and could not be shared with others at all, he thought. Translucent shadow.

Just as he was thinking, the translucent shadow received his thoughts, emerged from invisibility, and sat beside him.

Looking at the translucent shadow beside him, he couldn't help but feel at ease. At the most dangerous time, the translucent shadow saved him.

Thinking about the translucent shadow he saw last night, it was fright at first, but later he found out that there was no danger. He regarded it as a golden finger that passed through, and made all kinds of methods to activate the golden finger that are ridiculous now.

Now David's heart is full of gratitude. He reaches out and pats the translucent shadow like a friend.
