92: Chapter 92: Rescue (Extra for the leader singing a love song) (18th update) 92: Chapter 92: Rescue (Extra for the leader singing a love song) (18th update) At that moment, Su Ming looked towards the front of the train and saw the burning locomotive, horribly disfigured as if it had crashed into something.
âHow awful!â
âNo one in the driverâs cab could have survived.â
âWith this situation, they definitely didnât make it.â
âŠ
While everyone was talking, Yu Wei observed the tracks around the front of the train and said to Qin Feng.
âQin Feng, look at the tracks, it seems like there are shattered metal blades.â
âThere shouldnât be metal blades in this tunnel.â
Qin Feng was equally puzzled.
Hearing their conversation, Su Ming looked closely and indeed saw some shimmering metal blades scattered around the tracks at the front of the train.
He suddenly became excited and wanted to go down to touch them.
In fact, there were quite a few people who felt the same way, including Qin Feng, who also climbed down from the emergency walkway.
But just then, a shout stopped them.
âDonât go near, itâs dangerous!â
Su Ming and the others turned their heads and saw two security guards holding rifles, rushing over hurriedly.
Seeing this, Qin Feng and the others had no choice but to give up.
Su Ming shook his head, clearly understanding that there was no chance now, as the guards were there to protect the scene.
At that point, Gu Meng deliberately sought a conversation topic and asked Su Ming.
âSu Ming, do you know what this train collided with to end up like this?â
âNot sure, there are many possibilities, but the most likely scenario is that it might have hit some kind of monster.â
Su Ming thought for a while and then voiced his speculation.
âMonster.â
Hearing Su Mingâs words, Gu Meng instinctively became a bit frightened and stepped back.
âGu Meng, donât listen to his nonsense.
Heâs blaming everything on a monster.
If there really was a monster, there should be a corpse at the scene!
And even if there were a monster, no worries, Iâm here, I will protect you.â
Qi Shen quickly interjected.
Unfortunately, Gu Meng wasnât listening to Qi Shenâs words at all; she said to Su Ming.
âThen isnât this place very dangerous?â
âItâs okay for now, we havenât seen any other traces of monsters.
It might just be an isolated incident, we should consider how to get to safety now.â
Su Ming replied sensibly.
âYes, first letâs find a way to safety!
Where are we now?
There should be an emergency exit in the tunnel.â
Gu Meng agreed strongly with Su Mingâs words.
Su Ming glanced at the tunnel wall and saw the painted signs, and then said.
âThereâs a marker on the tunnel wall, weâre at the JS-532 tunnel junction, about 1.2 kilometers from the nearest emergency exit.â
â1.2 kilometers isnât far, we can totally walk out.â
Gu Meng immediately said to Su Ming.
âNo, we canât go out.â
Su Ming directly vetoed Gu Mengâs suggestion.
âCome on, just because you say we canât go out means we just sit here?â
Qi Shen mindlessly argued against Su Ming, especially as Gu Meng kept talking to him.
âQi Shen, donât talk, why canât we go out?â
Gu Meng interrupted Qi Shen, extremely patiently asking Su Ming.
âThe tunnel is hot, right?â
âHot, Iâm sweating through my clothes.â
Gu Meng responded cooperatively.
âOutside itâs even hotter, at least 60 degrees.
And itâs the hottest part of the afternoon now, going out could burn us to death.â
Su Ming sighed and replied.
âRight, so what do we do now?â
âDonât worry, the signal facilities in the tunnel arenât damaged.
The train staff must be contacting rescue services already.
Besides, Iâve seen many passengers making calls too.
We just need to wait patiently.â
âYouâre so smart.â
Gu Meng praised with a smile.
Qi Shen, standing nearby, felt even more annoyed, but due to his reservations, he didnât dare to mock Su Ming openly and could only mutter to himself.
âPff, as if no one knew itâs hot outside, like we needed you to tell us.â
Su Ming didnât mind and just stood silently, waiting for the rescue.
Although there was a ventilation system in the tunnel, it only circulated hot air, making the temperature inside reach at least 45 degrees Celsius.
Time slowly passed.
Su Ming felt increasingly hot, sweat continuously seeping from his skin, soaking his clothes, yet he didnât take them off.
The students around him were also extremely hot.
Many boys had taken off their tops, exposing their upper bodies, and some even struck poses to show off their muscles.
As for the girls, many couldnât stand it either and began taking off their outer garments, revealing their fair skin and thighs.
Gu Meng wiped the sweat from her forehead, hesitated for a moment, and finally took off her leather jacket, revealing a white tank top underneath and her sizzling figure was fully exposed.
Seeing Gu Meng remove her jacket, Su Ming instantly turned his head away.
Gu Meng saw Su Ming turn his head away in a gentlemanly manner and her face showed a mischievous smile.
Qi Shen, observing Gu Mengâs hot figure and her impressive bust, was immediately captivated, unable to look away.
He couldnât help but swallow his saliva.
At that moment, Gu Meng noticed Qi Shenâs blatant stare and said angrily,
âWhat are you looking at?â
âNothing, I wasnât looking, donât be mad.â
Qi Shen immediately panicked and hastily defended himself.
Gu Meng ignored him and moved closer to Su Ming,
âSu Ming, whatâs your phone number?
Itâs rare that weâre both studying in the same city, we could keep in touch when weâre free.â
Su Ming was also a bit surprised that Gu Meng would ask for his number, but he didnât want to give it to her.
Considering this young ladyâs temper wasnât the best, he shook his head slightly and declined,
âForget it, Starlight City is so big, who knows when weâll meet again.â
âHow about next time?
If we meet again, youâll give it to me then?â
Gu Meng, seeing Su Ming refuse, felt a bit disappointed, but she didnât give up.
âSure.â
Su Ming agreed, slightly taken aback.
At this time, students and passengers around complained incessantly,
âWhen will the rescue arrive?
Weâre almost dead from the heat.â
âYeah, I feel like Iâm getting heatstroke.â
âThe efficiency is too low!â
âŠ
âLadies and gentlemen, please endure a little longer.
Rescue is on its way and should be here very soon.â
A train attendant, soaked in sweat and parched, tried to soothe everyone.
Just as everyoneâs patience was running thin, a strong light shone from the far end of the tunnel, and the sound of a train approaching was heard.
âThereâs a train coming.â
âRescue is here!â
âŠ
Everyone shouted excitedly.
Su Ming also looked eagerly toward the approaching train.
The train began to slow down and finally stopped in front of them.
Beep beep~
The train doors opened, and one by one, soldiers dressed in Exoskeleton Armor rushed out.
Leading them was a woman in a second-generation red metallic Exoskeleton Armor·Rock Steel, her eyes sharp as she swiftly gestured.
âFirst squad, secure the crash site.
Second squad, inspect the damaged train.
Third and fourth squads, spread out to search and secure the tunnel.â
