Chapter 299: Huge Waves
Chapter 299: Huge Waves
Manhattan, New York!
"Hey... man, come over here..."
"This damn weather... I spent $1,500 on this waterproof raincoat..."
"Shut up, there are rats everywhere..."
Several people dressed like businessmen were walking in the flooded street, surrounded by cars stuck on the road and people fleeing in all directions.
They walked, cursing.
"Hey, man, this is New York..."
One of them, who looked like the leader, showed a hint of joy when he saw a big bus in front of him.
He felt that although the tall body of the bus could not take him away from this hellhole, at least it would not get his trouser legs wet and would provide a place to hide.
“Open the door…Open the door!!”
He walked over and slammed hard on the front door glass of the bus near the driver.
"Sorry sir, we have stopped serving!!!"
The bus driver said loudly, somewhat angrily.
In such gloomy weather, everyone has an unusually hot temper and can get irritated at any time.
The businessman seemed to be unable to hear what the bus driver said in the storm and kept banging on the glass.
“The service has been stopped!!!”
The bus driver yelled again, louder than before.
He pressed the door button impatiently and opened the car door.
"I think you can do it..."
This time the businessman heard what the driver said.
"I'll give you a hundred dollars..."
"Oh, no, really, we stopped..."
The bus driver wanted to say something else.
"I'll give you two hundred dollars..."
The businessman simply took out two hundred-dollar bills from his pocket.
As he spoke, he stuffed US dollars into the bus driver's hand.
The driver wanted to say something else, but when he looked at the dollars in his hand, he immediately stopped talking and smiled happily.
This is a considerable extra income for him.
"Oh my god, I really love buses at this moment... This is so interesting..."
"Haha, this is really fun..."
Several other businessmen also got on the car and said happily.
The driver put the dollars in his hand into his pocket and never stopped smiling. The bad weather at this moment became cute in his eyes.
Outside the bus at this time.
Several young people were walking with difficulty in the rain.
"Hey...what should I do? I can't get through to the driver...there's no signal at all..."
A tall boy wearing the uniform of Panhurst College spoke to the others while holding a cell phone.
At this time, the accumulated water was almost up to their knees. They walked with difficulty and talked loudly at the same time.
The noisy environment forced them to make sounds similar to shouting to ensure that the other party could hear what they said clearly.
"This won't work...we have to find another way!"
"We can't drive, we should go to the apartment..."
A pretty girl wearing a bowler hat exclaimed loudly.
Although the strong wind and rain made her hair messy, it could not hide her natural beauty and her delicate face under her snow-white skin.
“I agree with this idea!”
A tall and thin black boy also agreed.
"Are you kidding me..."
"With such heavy rain and water accumulation, we must go to a higher place... otherwise it will be dangerous..."
A brown-haired boy yelled loudly.
I don't know if it was because my voice was too soft to be heard, or because I was angry about their suggestion.
"Let's go... let's go to the library over there... the terrain over there is higher!"
Without thinking, the other teenagers immediately followed his pace.
"I can not understand what you say……"
A black traffic policeman looked helplessly at the anxious mother and daughter in a taxi.
The two people in the car were also black. They were from France and spoke French.
"I don't understand French..."
The traffic policeman was obviously helpless as well.
The little girl kept banging on the car window, trying to open the door, but to no avail.
Her mother on the other side was also saying something anxiously.
Just when the black police officer was at a loss, a slightly childish voice was heard.
"I know some French, I think I can help you..."
"Oh, thank God, you are such an angel..."
The black policeman said very happily.
She listened to what the two people in the car said, then turned to the police and said, "They are trapped in the car and can't get out. They need help..."
"Oh, that's too bad..."
"Let me think of a way..."
The black policeman began to think and searched around, and soon he found an iron rod.
"Tell them to cover their glasses... I'm going to break the glass..."
After hearing the girl's words, the mother and daughter in the car quickly lowered their heads and covered their eyes with their sleeves.
"Snapped!"
Followed by the sound of glass breaking.
The car's front windshield was shattered.
Later, with the help of police officers, the black mother and daughter from France were able to escape.
After escaping, they headed towards the library eagerly without even a word of thanks.
Because the water was too deep, the police officer picked up the little girl and headed towards the library.
The girl smiled as she watched the two men escape from trouble. She did not feel disappointed. She just followed behind them, staggering forward in the water with difficulty.
She had just accidentally cut her leg while walking, and it was bleeding continuously. The pain made it very uncomfortable for her to walk.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
At this moment, a huge wave quickly hit the coast of New York State!
Huge amounts of sea water poured into the bustling city.
In an instant, huge waves submerged countless people...
And it continued to spread in the city, carrying countless cars and messy items towards deeper areas.
Seeing this scene, the people on the street ran towards higher places even more frantically. Screams, shouts, and cries filled every corner.
"My wallet...my purse...is still in the car!!! My passport!"
The black women who had just been rescued shouted loudly to the young girl who had rescued them.
"Never mind it... Your life is more important..."
After listening to the girl's translation, the policeman said anxiously.
"No...I need a passport..."
The black woman from France continued to yell loudly!
"Okay, okay, I'll go find it!"
The girl's compassion began to take over again, and she started her way back, ignoring the approaching huge waves.
The black woman nodded with relief.
It seemed as if he had no idea what kind of danger the girl's return journey would bring.
She quickly turned and headed towards the library, which was on higher ground.
It's safe there...
