Today's second update, please recommend, please subscribe!

Evan Bell picked up the clock on the bedside, which showed that at 3:14 on May 12, this is Los Angeles time. In other words, Beijing time is now 18:10 on May 12. Four points.

When he realized this, Evan Bell patted his head angrily. He couldn't forgive his forgetfulness. At 14:28 pm on May 12, 2008, a magnitude 8 earthquake occurred in Wenchuan, Bei, Sichuan, China. The earthquake affected more than half of China and killed more than 69,000 people.

Is your life too easy lately? Or living in a foreign country for too long? Or has it been too long since the last life? No matter what the reason is, Evan Bell just forgot May 12, a day that is worth remembering for all Chinese.

Although Evan Bell knew that an earthquake was a type of natural disaster, just like the outbreak of the nine-event, Evan Bell, as an independent individual, even if he predicted this earthquake, no one would believe him; even if He had the intention to let the people of Wenchuan, Bei, and Sichuan retreat first, and no one would follow his instructions. On the contrary, he would accuse him of being alarmist, creating chaos, and even seriously suspecting that he was trying to undermine the domestic order of China— Because in this life, his skin is no longer yellow skin and black hair. But even so, Evan Bell still felt that it was an unforgivable act that he had forgotten such an important day.

Although it is said that after the two lifetimes, it has been 30 years since the last lifetime in 2008. Many of Evan Bell's memories have become blurred, but Evan Bell does not think this is an excuse. Forgetting is forgetting is not any Excuses can be explained. Fortunately, Evan Bell has never been a whining personality. Since he has not been able to play a preventive role, at least he can contribute to the rescue work.

Evan Bell covered his face with his hands and rubbed it hard twice to wake himself up. Blake Lively saw Evan Bell's state and couldn't help but worry, "What's the matter, are the nightmares still in your head?"

Evan Bell shook his head, "No. You go to sleep first, I'll go check the information." Evan Bell wanted to see what was going on now, and there should be a lot of news on the Internet at this time.

Evan Bell lightly kissed Blake Lively's forehead, then put on his jacket and walked towards the hall. Blake Lively watched Evan Bell leave quietly, but was still very worried, just sat there and looked at his lover worriedly. Blake Lively could clearly feel the heaviness between Evan Bell's eyebrows. But Evan Bell now looks like he needs his own space, so Blake Lively, no matter how worried, doesn't follow, just curls up under the covers and stares wide-eyed at the moonlight.

Evan Bell sat quietly in front of the computer and watched the news headlines of major domestic portals. Although it is still late at night in the United States, the Associated Press also released relevant news at the first time. In the Internet age, news It has spread all over the web.

However, the detailed news about the disaster-stricken area has not yet come out. Yu, the earthquake situation is still very serious, and the rescue force has no way to enter the disaster-stricken area. The only information Evan Bell knew was Chengdu. The military region dispatched a rescue force of about 6,000 people. However, the troops were blocked due to road damage near Dujiangyan. The relevant troops took the lead in carrying out emergency rescue in Dujiangyan.

Closing his eyes, Evan Bell seemed to be able to see the tragic dream in the dream just now. At the beginning of the ninth--when Evan Bell was in the Bensenhe district of Brooklyn, he watched helplessly as the plane hit the World Trade Center. , the shock from the frontal impact made Evan Bell's deep sense of powerlessness burst out; this time, although Evan Bell was sitting in front of the computer safe and sound on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, in memory of Wenchuan, the earthquake The strong aftermath made him shiver.

At this moment in my last life, Evan Bell was on a business trip in Xi'an. In my memory, 2008 was a busy year. Because the Olympic Games were about to be held, the whole country was excited. At the end of April, the "King of Kung Fu" starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li was released simultaneously in the mainland. At that time, Evan Bell went to Xi'an as a reporter to attend a "King of Kung Fu" fan meeting.

When the earthquake happened, Evan Bell and his colleagues stood on the square outside the Xi'an Qu, Jiang International Convention and Exhibition Center, waiting for the arrival of the big-name guests. Suddenly, the mountains were shaken, and many people even fell. sat on the ground. At first, Evan Bell joked with fellow reporters there that another ancient tomb was found nearby, and then the explosives were detonated. But then the feeling of this violent shaking continued for about twenty minutes before it completely disappeared. Everyone realized that it was not good, and they took out their phones to report the safety of their family members, but no one could make a call. , the surrounding signal is chaotic.

Less than 15 minutes later, Evan Bell and others knew the news of the earthquake in Wenchuan and Sichuan. The reporters standing in the square at that time were dumbfounded. Although they were all entertainment reporters, in the face of the real natural disaster, everyone was the same. The "King of Kung Fu" fan meeting was ultimately unsuccessful. Jackie Chan and Jet Li had even arrived at the scene, but they left Xi'an on the spot and dedicated their own strength to the rescue operation.

At that time, Evan Bell really understood why people like to call Jackie Chan a big brother. His mind and courage are indeed admirable.

Thirty years have passed since the scene in my memory. Evan Bell originally thought that the memory of the thirty years would become very blurred, but when he closed his eyes, the immersive feeling of being there was still vivid, Evan Bell -Bell could even feel the violent shaking under his feet, causing the bones and blood to vibrate.

Evan Bell just sat quietly in front of the computer, refreshing the page again and again, hoping to see the latest progress of the rescue situation. Even if he knew that the news was refreshed every 30 seconds, the web page would not have the latest changes, because in the first few hours after the earthquake, the whole Sichuan was in chaos, even if the rescue force wanted to enter the disaster area. , the districts are inaccessible, and the heavy rain has made the rescue work very difficult. It was not until the early morning of the 13th that a preliminary breakthrough was made, and the news came out one after another.

But Evan Bell still couldn't control his inner anxiety and refreshed the page over and over again. His eyes were out of focus. Although he was staring at the computer screen, his eyes were empty, and his mind was even more chaotic. Not just because of guilt, but because of Evan Bell's inner powerlessness.

In the face of natural disasters, human strength is really too meager. An earthquake, an earthquake, a star, a mountain, and a sea, but human beings can only be helplessly forced to accept all of this. They have no ability to resist. Your own helping hand to minimize the suffering of disasters. The funny thing is that many times, people can only put their hands together and pray for the people who are in the vortex of disaster. In addition, even if they want to help them, there is no way. This feeling of powerlessness gnawed at Evan Bell's heart bit by bit.

Blake Lively couldn't sleep after all. She was really worried about Evan Bell. Evan Bell's eyebrows were heavier than ever. Evan Bell in Blake Lively's memory, let alone a nightmare, even if it is a slander incident, even if it is a more serious matter, he still has vitality, and uses various methods to face these matter.

As if even if the sky fell, it was nothing more than that.

But today's Evan Bell is not like this. The loneliness and loneliness of his back is deeper than the night. Even the dark night and the cold moonlight cannot surround him, and even the negativity radiated from his heart. engulfed by emotions. This kept Blake Lively awake at all, curled up under the covers and wrapped his hands tightly around his knees, trying to keep himself warm. Pity it was in vain.

Blake Lively walked to the hall lightly and saw Evan Bell sitting on the sofa alone and kept pressing the left button of the mouse. Blake Lively stood silently, did not speak, and looked at Evan Bell for a long time, only watching him press the mouse again and again The fluorescent reflection projected by the laptop screen. On his handsome face, the slightly frowning brows and the tightly pursed corners of his mouth did not have the usual spontaneity and dashingness, nor did he have the comfort and lightness of teasing reporters during the day.

Blake Lively didn't know how long he had been standing. Evan Bell seemed to finally be aware of his gaze, and when he looked up, he saw Blake Lively leaning against the door. She was just wearing one of her own shirts, and her slender body was shivering in the cold of the early morning. . Evan Bell raised his right hand and waved lightly, "Come here."

Blake Lively walked quickly to Evan Bell on his toes. Evan Bell wrapped the woman in his arms, then picked up the blanket on the sofa and wrapped the two of them. Blake Lively felt Evan Bell's hot body temperature immediately, and the restlessness and anxiety in her heart calmed down a little, but she could still feel Evan Bell's low pressure.

Evan Bell didn't take the laptop away. Blake Lively cast his eyes on the screen and saw several dialog boxes, some in Chinese and some in English. The English dialog box is the official website of the Associated Press, and the message on it is simple and clear, but it conveys very scary news.

It is tentatively expected to be a magnitude 11 earthquake. Blake Lively fell silent when she saw this shallow breath. She turned to look at the man beside her, "Do you want to join the rescue force?"
