Chapter 154 Sprint

After saying those words to the residents of District 3, Chen Ling never returned to the carriage. He needed to let those people's despair continue to ferment.

"Chen Ling, there seem to be scattered refugees ahead..." Zhao Yi said uncertainly.

"Stop the train if there are any. Don't let go of anyone you see on the road."

Chen Ling said without hesitation.

Under Zhao Yi's control, the train stopped next to the refugees who were on the verge of their limit. This train that could derail and run at high speed scared them all, but when they saw that there were already many residents of District 3 on the carriage, they were still ecstatic to be taken on board.

These people were in groups of three or two. They were all people who did not move along the rails or got lost in the wind and snow. Unfortunately, even if they were all added together, there were only a dozen people. Counting the group that had been picked up in the carriage, there were only sixty "spectators" in total.

These sixty people were probably the last survivors of District 3.

"Chen Ling, the road ahead is all in the reflection... No matter which direction we drive, it seems that we will enter the gray world." Zhao Yi saw the white ice field ahead and frowned.

"The two worlds are about to completely intersect. It is impossible to find a completely normal road now."

Chen Ling looked at the road ahead and sighed in his heart...

There is no longer any survivors from the third area ahead, which means that he can only have 60 "audiences" outside Aurora City, which is far from the performance target of at least 100 people... Now he can only find a way to mobilize the "audience" in Aurora City.

"What should we do then?"

"How far is it from Aurora City?"

Zhao Yi looked at the map next to the dashboard and answered, "If we go full speed ahead... we still have ten minutes."

"There is no other way, let's break out at full speed." Chen Ling said slowly, "There is an Aurora shelter near Aurora City, and the intersection of the gray world will definitely stop there. As long as we can pass through the gray world in front, we can return to the world and reach the foot of Aurora City."

"Break through..." Zhao Yi licked his cracked lips, and a look of determination appeared in his eyes.

"Then you have to hold on tight."

He instantly clasped the dry hand on the dashboard with his ten fingers and used all his strength to bend it forward. The flame in the boiler was extremely bright, and a thunderous roar came from the chimney, and the misty white steam gushed into the sky like a torch!

The people on the train only felt a thrust coming, the collision sound of the transmission rod and the wheels became more and more intense, and the surrounding wind and snow began to fly at an alarming speed!

Bang-bang-bang...

Under the horrified eyes of everyone, the speed of this train has been increased to the extreme, and it crashed into the reflection of the ice field without hesitation, and disappeared in the vast snow and wind.

...

Aurora City.

Chu Shiduo pushed open the door of the tea room, walked silently to the figure sitting in front of the courtyard, and sat down respectfully.

[Tan Xin] was still wearing the black windbreaker, calmly looking at the tree branches swaying in the wind in the courtyard, and slowly said:

"How long has it been."

"Twenty hours and thirteen minutes have passed since the disappearance of the aurora. The area outside the Aurora City has completely become the territory of the Gray Realm. According to our estimates, the seven major districts have been completely destroyed and no one has survived."

"...Is it over?"

[Tan Xin] picked up the teacup and took a sip, with a complex expression.

At this moment, a noise gradually approached from a distance, as if many people gathered together to shout something, even across the courtyard wall, it was very clear.

"What's going on outside?" [Tan Xin] suddenly asked.

Chu Shiduo answered helplessly,

"Teacher, it's a protest march organized by the people..."

"Protest march? Protesting what?"

"Protesting... you."

[Tan Xin] raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Shiduo in surprise.

"The fact that we gave up the seven districts was leaked... Those who were already hostile to the law enforcement system took the opportunity to incite public sentiment, accusing Aurora City of cold-bloodedness and accusing the law enforcement officers of being capable but not doing anything. The seven districts of 300,000 people gave up just like that, and they also said..."

Chu Shiduo was halfway through his speech, hesitating.

"What?" [Tan Xin] asked casually, as if the person being accused was not himself at all.

"They said... you are a coward."

[Tan Xin] smiled, his smile was gentle and harmless in the sun, as if he thought of something interesting,

Then he waved his hand, "Let them talk."

"The things in the seven districts cannot be concealed, this day will come sooner or later... Have the people from the Aurora Daily and Bonfire Radio come? It's time to release an official report on the victims in the seven districts."

"They came, but they were blocked outside the door by the marching people. Now they have begun to interview the marching residents." Chu Shiduo paused, "Teacher, I am worried that they will be influenced by the marching residents and issue reports that are unfavorable to us..."

"Let them go and interview, and after the march is over, you will make an official statement on my behalf."

"Me?" Chu Shiduo asked doubtfully, "Teacher, for such a big thing, won't you show up in person?"

"I don't want to waste time explaining what has happened. It doesn't matter how they evaluate me... I have more important things to do."

Seeing this, Chu Shiduo nodded slightly, "By the way, there is one more thing."

"What?"

"Xi Renjie went into the city."

"Oh? What was the result?"

"Chen Ling didn't bite the bait... No, it should be said that Xi Renjie was soft-hearted and didn't attack Chen Ling at all."

"It seems to be bad news again." [Tan Xin] said calmly, "How is Xi Renjie?"

" Didn't survive the soul-breaking search... went crazy."

"... got it."

"There's another interesting thing in Xi Renjie's memory... Chen Ling asked him to bring a message to Aurora City."

"Bring a message?"

"He said: Aurora City wants to shut him out, but he won't do what we want. He will visit Aurora City."

[Tan Xin]'s eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was interested.

"Interesting... I want to see how he will visit?"

After reporting the situation, Chu Shiduo stood up and left the teahouse.

He walked through the multiple corridors of the headquarters, and just as he walked out of the headquarters from the side door, he saw that the avenue in front of the headquarters was already crowded.

A large number of people holding flags and banners moved slowly on the street. Led by several leaders, they shouted slogans rhythmically, and the thunderous sound shook the street.
