the next day.
Saturday morning, sunny.
Birds were flapping their wings outside the window, and bees were chattering for food.
In the small green garden in the distance, some old men and old ladies were doing Tai Chi, some were walking birds, and some were taking a walk, creating a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.
What a beautiful picture. The Power of Time and Wealth 725
But for two days, I'm afraid I won't see anything.
Dong Xuebin, who was resting at home today, lay on the window sill and looked outside, his heart getting heavier and heavier. As for the last step, the adventurous plan was in his heart without any hesitation. Dong Xuebin had to do anything even if he risked his own life. His plan was to publish an article in a Fenzhou City newspaper with a large circulation, so that everyone would know and pay attention to it. It's just that Dong Xuebin needs an excuse, a reason, and a way to convince most people. Otherwise, if you shout about an earthquake in vain, you will only be regarded as a fool, and no one will believe it.
what to do? Borrow for what.?
Are you using your friends from the Earthquake Bureau as cover? This won't work, it can be revealed with just one phone call.
Let Earthquake Bureau come and do the examination? No, it's not possible. The level of pre-earthquakes in China is limited and cannot be detected.
Just as Dong Xuebin was racking his brains to figure it out, suddenly, there was some noise on the roadside in the distance, someone shouting, and a dog barking.
"Hey! Look at your dog!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't bite you, did I?"
"It's okay, you scared me."
"I'm sorry. I don't know what's wrong with this dog today. It's like crazy and keeps barking."
"Is he suffering from rabies? By the way, our cat also howled so happily this morning, as if he was crying."
"Then I'll go to the pet hospital later to make sure you don't get really sick."
Seeing this, Dong Xuebin suddenly slapped his thigh, the dog barked? Cat crying? Did this walking animal react? Animals can also warn of earthquakes!
The earthquake is really coming!
That newspaper made no mistake!
Dong Xuebin Worried about my nose, I didn't even bother to put on my shoes, so I opened the door and strode out of the corridor with my slippers on.
Suddenly, someone's dog downstairs was barking lifelessly, and someone could vaguely hear voices in the house.
"Pippi! Stop barking!"
"Woof woof woof!" The Power of Time and Wealth 725
"Pippi! Pour some naughty food!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Dong Xuebin's face became darker. Even though he had been mentally prepared for this, he was in a bad mood when he saw this scene, and his heart was in his throat.
An earthquake is imminent!
At this moment, no one can stop it!
Just at this time, there was a creak next to Dong Xuebin who was walking downstairs. Zhou Yanru, wearing pajamas, opened the door and walked out, holding this bag in his hand as if he was about to throw something away. Seeing Dong Xuebin about to go downstairs, Zhou Yanru was slightly startled, with a smile on his face and said, "Director."
Dong Xuebin paused, "Are you up?"
Zhou Yanru smiled and nodded, fluttering the bag in his hand, "Zhou Qi, throw something away. I don't know what time last night, the fish jumped out of the tank. No, it almost stinks."
Did the fish react too??
Upon hearing this, Dong Xuebin's face became even more ugly.
Zhou Yanru then realized something was wrong, "Director, what's wrong? Something happened?"
Dong Xuebin said, "The dogs in the building have been barking all morning. Outside, there were a few dogs barking just now, as well as the cats, and the fish in your house."
Zhou Yanru didn't understand and blinked. "This... dog? Fish?"
Dong Xuebin breathed. "I have a bad feeling, very bad!"
If others had heard this, they might not have thought of anything else, but the cadres of Guangming Street Office have been bathing in earthquake knowledge every day for months. While doing work for the masses and residents, they have also learned it themselves. So Zhou Yanru quickly realized what Dong Xuebin was talking about. He let out a surprised sound and his face turned a little pale. "You mean, "It's an earthquake?" "
Big Sister Zhou's voice is not small.
This sound called out many people.
Qu Yiqiang walked out of the opposite door, "Huh? What happened?"
There was also the sound of the door opening downstairs, "Sister Yanru? What's wrong?" is the voice of Wang Yuling.
Seeing this, Dong Xuebin said loudly, "All the cadres of Street Office, come here, put aside what you are doing, let's hold an emergency meeting!"
Zhou Yanru hurried back to the house to call someone.
Dong Xuebin knew that time was running out, and immediately assigned the task, "Director Wang, go to the small garden right away and take a look at the condition of those stray cats and dogs, and whether there are any abnormal behaviors. Old Qu, aren't there several pigeon breeders in the south building of our community? Go and ask the pigeons if they have returned to their nests. "At this time, Zhou Yanru, who had called, also came out of the house. Dong Xuebin turned around and said, "Director Zhou, go to the west fish market." The Power of Time and Wealth 725
Wang Yuling still didn't understand what was going on, "This? What kind of animal are you looking at?"
Zhou Yanru pulled her nervously, "Quick, talk while walking!"
"By the way, remember not to show off!" Dong Xuebin warned, "Check it first, don't cause panic!"
"I understand." Zhou Yanru and Qu Yiqiang immediately went downstairs.
After a while, there were footsteps upstairs, and Geng Xinke also came, "What happened?"
Dong Xuebin stepped upstairs, "Let's go to my house and talk...
Half an hour later.
Almost all the main leaders of the Dong Family and Street Office have arrived. The room is filled with smoke and smoke, and several senior gentlemen are smoking cigarettes one by one. Their expressions are not very good.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
"I think so, probably by chance."
"If it's true...that would be bad."
"Hey, Yu Ling is back."
Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked at the door.
Wang Yuling and Zhou Yanru entered the house one after another, and Qu Yiqiang came back later.
Dong Xuebin put out the cigarette butt, "How's it going?"
Zhou Yanru said solemnly, "I just went to the fish market. Most of the fish in more than a dozen stalls were normal, but there were a few fish in two tanks jumping around. I asked the merchants, and they said it was okay. Maybe the fish tank was short of hydrogen, but I didn't think it was like it. After I injected hydrogen gas, the fish were also jumping."
Wang Yuling then said, "I also looked over there in the garden. There are two dogs that are always barking, and the other seven or eight are fine. Most of the stray cats are normal, there is only one cat, and a passerby feeds it, but it doesn't eat anything and makes fun of people everywhere."
Dong Xuebin looked at Qu Yiqiang, "Old Qu, where are you?"
Qu Yiqiang said, "The pigeons are all in their nests, so there is nothing unusual about it."
After hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Rongfeng said, "Since most animals don't have any special reactions, it should be fine, right?"
Zhou Yanru retorted, "Animals can predict earthquakes. This is an abnormal situation. How can there be so many barking dogs in normal times? The same goes for my fish. I have kept them for four or five years and they are fine. Why did they suddenly jump out of the fish tank tonight? Ouch, I'm so worried now, if there's really an earthquake..."
Wang Yuling said, "When you say this, I feel uneasy."
Qu Yiqiang said in a deep voice, "Is there no problem with my care? Could it be a coincidence? Or has there been some special change in the weather these two days?"
"Yeah, it's just a small group of animals, so we shouldn't judge them.
"Well, if all animals have abnormalities, then..."
Dong Xuebin interrupted, "All animals? If all the dogs in the city were barking before the earthquake, then who wouldn't know it was coming? But why didn't they predict it every time? It's impossible for all animals to have this abnormal reaction. Director Zhou is right, a small part can already explain the problem. This is because you don't have to worry about ten thousand, but just in case. If an earthquake really comes, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Top Leader set the tone, and the other cadres said nothing more.
However, many people still think it is impossible. Just a few cats and dogs barking will cause an earthquake? This reaction was too extreme.
Dong Xuebin ordered, "Director Zhou, write a report immediately and report the situation here to the district."
"Understood." Zhou Yanru said.
"Director Wang." Dong Xuebin said, "You contact Earthquake Bureau. If you can't just drive there, you must invite some professionals."
"Okay, I'll contact you right away." Wang Yuling said.
Dong Xuebin assigned tasks one by one. He had known that an earthquake would definitely come. There was no need to investigate these. Whether there is an earthquake or not is not Dong Xuebin's decision alone. Evidence and scientific arguments are needed. Dong Xuebin is also looking for an entry point. Now that he has found it, with the abnormal reactions of these animals, although it is not very convincing, it at least allows Dong Xuebin to shout with confidence. Even if only one or two dogs out of a hundred are barking, it is a phenomenon and a basis, and Dong Xuebin is not spreading rumors!
As soon as the people on the street left, Dong Xuebin immediately turned on the computer and started typing a manuscript.
He wrote this thing very seriously. He also recorded the nasal symptoms of chickens, ducks, fish and dogs one by one, and wrote some results. It took him a whole morning.
Afternoon.
Just when Dong Xuebin was about to contact the newspaper to make a decision first, Wang Yuling called, "Director, the results of the Earthquake Bureau are out."
Dong Xuebin's eyes narrowed, "So fast?"
Wang Yuling said, "I contacted Earthquake Bureau after I left in the morning, and they immediately sent someone over. They have arrived a long time ago."
"What's the result?"
"When we came out, they said it was fine."
"Is everything okay? What's okay?"
"Their people checked the engraving and said there were no signs of earthquakes. Those dogs and fishes said it might be an accident. Anyway, there was nothing abnormal on their checking equipment."
There are no signs of earthquakes.
After receiving this news, the Street Office cadres who had previously met at Dong Xuebin's house all grew a baby. Angry, finally at ease.
But Dong Xuebin was annoyed and paralyzed, what kind of earthquake bureau! What an expert! What a shame about your grandma! If I hadn't known that the earthquake would be the day after tomorrow! I was really fooled by you!
This is imminent and there are no signs of earthquake?
Are you guys causing "chaos" for me?
Can you detect earthquakes only after the sky falls and the earth falls? Then why check it? Anyone with eyes can see it! Too late, too late! (To be continued.
