Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading! Don't forget to spread the word.

"...This rainstorm has been upgraded to a red warning. The passage in the lower part of Nuojin has been temporarily closed, the traffic in the upper part of the city has been almost paralyzed, a large number of industries have been hit hard, and the infrastructure has been severely damaged."

"At present, the sewer network has been fully operated at the highest efficiency, and the water accumulation has eased slightly, but according to experts' predictions, this is just a drop in the bucket. If the heavy rain continues for another week, one-third of the area in Nuojin will be flooded."

"The Luoer Resources Development Company proposed to use the Xiacheng District to build a more complete and effective sewer system. This will be a very large project. Therefore, it appeals to all sectors of society and hopes to get the support of the Central District."

"According to expert analysis, the main reason for this heavy rain is the cold air mass from the northern highlands..."

Lin Jie listened to the news broadcast on the TV of the neighbor's shop next door, while trying to mop the water stains on the floor.

The torrential rain has lasted for almost a week.

Just as the news said, before yesterday, when the situation was at its worst, the water on the road had exceeded 30 centimeters.

Completely paralyzed traffic is not enough...because water transport such as kayaks can also be used.

The water even swept into the bookstore from the outside at one point.

Lin Jie woke up early in the morning, went downstairs and saw water flowing in from under the door, with some leaves and the like, almost thought he was going to move.

But luckily it wasn't that serious.

After the sewer system is fully operational, the water level outside has not risen, but some plastic bags or the like that floated blocked the door, so the water flooded in.

"Whoa."

Lin Jie pushed the last bit of water out of the door with a mop, straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, it's really tiring."

He put the mop aside, satisfied with the polished floor.

"I don't know if the kitten found a home. In such bad weather, it would be too dangerous to wander outside."

Lin Jie suddenly remembered the black cat that ran away from the door the day Joseph came.

The kind-hearted man sighed worriedly.

The sound of the TV next door suddenly stopped, followed by a curse, a thumping sound.

Lin Jie can completely imagine how the owner of the shop next door is so furious now.

"Excuse me, do you need help?"

He walked to the wall closest to the next door, cleared his throat, and asked.

Next door to this bookstore is an audio-visual store, which sells some CDs and digital products, but they are mainly second-hand, and the quality is very worrying.

The popularity of the business is comparable to that of his broken bookstore, with an average of 0.2 customers per day.

"No thanks."

The owner's voice came from next door, followed by two violent slaps.

"Boom!"

Carl Colin glared angrily at the TV in front of him and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it... Damn TV! Damn rainy day! Lord, who can help me!"

He checked the TV and found that it was not the problem with the TV itself, then it should be the line or the power supply.

Colin checked the line and found that there was no problem.

"Then it's just tripping," he thought. "But now, my door is almost flooded, and the switch is outside..."

The location of the audio-visual store is lower than that of the bookstore. Whenever Colin wants to step into the water, he frowns with a sullen face, wishing to give the group of people who designed the sewer pipes a wrench one by one.

"Wait, the guy next door might be able to help."

Although Colin had just turned down the help of the owner of the bookstore next door out of an embarrassed pride.

But he knew that the guy next door was always a nice guy.

Basically, if you can help, it will definitely help.

"Uh, uh, uh, uh, are you still there?"

Colin said.

Sure enough, the young man's response came from next door: "Yes, are you busy and need help?"

Colin secretly said sure enough, and then looked at his TV: "It's like this, you should have heard it too, there is something wrong with my TV, I suspect that the power switch outside may have tripped, I have something to do right now. Come on, can you help me take a look?"

Anyway, the guy next door is very helpful, and it's absolutely fine to ask him a little favor.

What's more, his TV shows the news every day, which is free for him.

Of course Lin Jie didn't mind helping.

In fact, he was bored now and was looking for something to do.

"No problem, if the switch is concerned, I remember it was..."

Lin Jie is about to go out.

Suddenly, a dark, fuzzy figure was reflected on the door, and inside the glass frame on the door, it was like a blacked-out portrait.

That tacit feeling suddenly reappeared.

"Ah, it's you, here you are."

Lin Jie was a little surprised. He didn't expect that after a few days, the man behind the scenes appeared again: "Is there anything you need to do with me? Or you can urge me to borrow books quickly."

The shadow at the door shook his head and pointed his finger to the left.

Lin Jie turned his head and saw the location of the video store over there. Combining the context, he guessed, "You mean, help me?"

Shadow nodded.

Lin Jie smiled, how do you feel that this behind-the-scenes mastermind is quite cute.

Last time there was no entity, and it could only be expressed by water stains, but now it has the same appearance as a shadow.

That should be the credit of the book that it lent itself - it said last time that lending books can bring benefits to it.

So showing up now to do a favor and say thanks?

What, it was already a deal, and now it should be the time for him to pay the price, why did he say thank you instead?

What's with this rather polite good boy feeling?

If you refuse, it seems to make people feel sad.

"Then thank you, the location of the switch is... um... I can't remember exactly."

Lin Jie turned to the next door and raised his voice: "Where is the switch?"

Colin quickly said: "At the back door of my shop, on the right wall, see if the trip is tripped. If so, just press it."

Lin Jie said: "No problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Colin saw his TV lit up again with a click. The news had been broadcast and the commercial was playing. He was overjoyed: "Okay! Thank you very much!"

"You're welcome."

Lin Jie looked at the shadow, smiled and nodded, the latter gradually faded out of the glass window, as if gradually retreating into the rain curtain.

Colin sat back on the sofa contentedly, picked up the remote and changed a few channels.

Looking at the changing picture on the TV, he was suddenly stunned, and then his face stiffened.

The cold sweat on the back came out little by little.

From the owner of the bookstore next door talking until the TV comes back on.

The position of his voice has never changed...
