Chapter 245: Chapter 130: National Relocation!_2
We have to pick up the phone to find out.
An office staff member suddenly stood up from their seat, rushed to the phone, and pressed the speaker button while picking it up.
"Hello, this is the Hengban County Government Office. May I know what’s the matter?"
"This is the Volcanic Research Center. We have observed that Jingli Mountain is about to erupt. The eruption could happen in as little as two hours. The situation is urgent, please quickly relay this message, organize personnel for the evacuation and resettlement of the residents."
"?!?!"
The office staff was stunned upon hearing the news.
Jingli Mountain is going to erupt?!
They had anticipated hearing some bad news when they picked up the phone, but they hadn’t expected it to be this explosive.
On the other end of the phone.
The researcher at the center, hearing no response for a while, couldn’t help but remind them, "County Office, please acknowledge!"
"Ah, yes, understood!"
The office staff was brought back to their senses by the voice, and after acknowledging, the call was immediately disconnected by the research center.
"Beep... beep... beep..."
The busy tone echoed in the office.
The office staff had now fully come to their senses, looking at each other with complex expressions on their faces.
There was panic, urgency, fear...
And so on.
"How did Jingli Mountain suddenly start to erupt?"
"Without any warning signs? And the shortest time is only two hours??"
"No wonder it suddenly got so hot. It must be related to the eruption of Jingli Mountain!"
"Two hours... I wonder if we can complete the evacuation in time. It feels too difficult. Let’s just hope the eruption is delayed a bit."
"..."
The intense discussions began immediately in the office.
However, despite the discussions.
Everyone knew the urgency of the matter; every second counted as lives were at stake. Not daring to delay even a second, they started contacting various parties immediately.
...
...
In the meantime.
Shenzhao University, Grand Lecture Hall.
Unlike yesterday, when most of the seats were occupied by students, today only a few dozen people were sitting in the front rows.
These people were teachers from Shenzhao University.
They were attending an academic exchange between teachers from two international universities.
"We cannot objectively say that two events happen simultaneously. According to the observers, some phenomena may occur simultaneously, or one after the other. It’s the same here; no one is wrong..."
A teacher from Imperial Capital University was passionately sharing his views, intermittently wiping sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
Apart from him...
Other people on the stage and the teachers sitting in the audience were all drenched in sweat, though they remained silent.
At this moment, Shenzhao University’s principal, Nohara Hikofu, wiped the sweat off his eyes, then waved his hand apologetically, interrupting the teacher from Imperial Capital University, "Excuse me, just a moment."
After that, he looked at the teachers from Shenzhao University and asked, "Why did it suddenly get so hot? Please quickly turn on the air conditioner in the hall."
"Okay."
The teacher who was addressed hastily stood up and walked out.
The air conditioner controls for the hall were outside the hall.
He had thought about turning on the air conditioner earlier, but he didn’t want to disrupt the fantastic exchange on the podium. So he endured it.
Fortunately...
Now Nohara Hikofu himself had interrupted the exchange.
The moment this teacher opened the hall door, he saw another teacher running towards him from a distance.
"Teacher Yamamoto, what’s wrong? What happened?"
"Is Principal Nohara inside??"
Talking, Teacher Yamamoto had already reached the door, hands on his knees, gasping for breath. Sweat was flowing down his face and dripping onto the ground, soaking through his black suit, making a large wet patch on his back.
The teacher who went to turn on the air conditioner was momentarily stunned, then quickly reacted and nodded, "Yes, the principal is inside, having an academic exchange with teachers from Imperial Capital University."
"Good!"
Teacher Yamamoto took a deep breath, then rushed into the grand lecture hall. Upon seeing Nohara Hikofu, disregarding the presence of the principal and teachers from Imperial Capital University, he hurriedly said, "Principal Nohara, something terrible has happened!"
"What’s the matter? Calm down and speak slowly."
Nohara Hikofu wasn’t sure what was going on, but he wanted to keep his composure in front of the visiting principal and teachers.
Teacher Yamamoto wanted to speak calmly, but the urgency of the situation didn’t allow it!
In a rush, he said, "The county office just called. Jingli Mountain has shown sudden activity and could erupt in as little as two hours, though it might take longer. We need to relocate to Hengma Mountain immediately."
"What?!"
Two simultaneous exclamations were heard.
Nohara Hikofu and Hao Jianhua voiced their shock at almost the same time.
The reason for their surprise was the imminent eruption of Jingli Mountain, putting them in extreme peril.
But Hao Jianhua had an additional reason.
That was Lin Beichen!
Upon hearing about Jingli Mountain, Hao Jianhua immediately thought of Lin Beichen, who had asked for leave to visit Jingli Mountain just last night.
The memory was still fresh!
Hearing that Jingli Mountain could erupt...
Two thoughts flashed through Hao Jianhua’s mind.
One, does Lin Beichen know about this? Can he escape the danger?
The other thought, oddly, was...
Is the sudden eruption of Jingli Mountain somehow related to Lin Beichen? fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Regardless of the thought, Hao Jianhua was confused and worried. Can he still allow Lin Beichen to go out?
Every time he goes out...
Something happens!
Be it in Great Xia or Shenzhao.
It’s truly uncanny!
"Jingli Mountain is actually going to erupt!"
"Oh my God, we need to evacuate immediately!"
"..."
Although Jingli Mountain hadn’t erupted yet, it felt like a sharp sword hanging over their heads, the hilt held by a thread about to snap.
At any moment, that sword could come crashing down!
Such a feeling filled everyone with fear!
Everyone was panicking!
Fortunately, Nohara Hikofu had lived in Hengban County all his life. He grew up with the threat of Jingli Mountain’s potential eruptions and had mentally prepared for this from a young age. So he wasn’t panicking too much, especially since he knew the exact evacuation location and trusted the officials’ prompt detection of the eruption.
There wasn’t much to worry about.
Nohara Hikofu quickly calmed everyone, signaling them to not panic. Once the discussions quieted down, he began, "Hengma Mountain is close to Shenzhao University, and our school has emergency buses. We will certainly be able to relocate all staff and students to the designated area within two hours. Please rest assured and remain calm. If you panic, the students will have no one to rely on!"
