Mei Man: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Chapter 15 Explosion
"What happened?!"

The aftermath of the explosion caused the two people in front of the hotel to stumble.

When he came back to his senses, he looked at the shattered glass and the screaming crowd around him. With the keenness of media journalists, Smith quickly pressed the switch of the camera and pointed the lens at the direction of the explosion.

"It's Thunder Special Agents!"

Through the enlarged image of the camera, the cameraman can see the situation in the distance.Under the lens of billowing smoke, one can vaguely see the phantom of flashing light, accompanied by fierce shelling and angry roars.

Recognizing the phantom's identity, Smith stabilized the camera's shooting angle, and at the same time turned his gaze to Colin beside him, who was waiting for the reporter's instructions.

Sensing the cameraman's gaze, Colin immediately made a decision.

Of course, the reason why Ke Lin is so decisive is definitely not the professional ethics of a reporter, but more because he intends to use this to get in touch with members of the Thunder Special Agents to obtain more [Time Fragments].

"What happened, Colin?"

Although the newspaper was bought by business tycoon Dexter Bennett, the basic structure of the "Daily Horn" has not changed much. The studio received a connection from a reporter on the spot, and the host responded immediately.

"Sorry to interrupt your report..."

While rushing to the location of the explosion, Colin introduced the scene through the camera lens.

"...But just a few minutes ago, a big explosion suddenly occurred in the block not far from the Hilton Hotel. We can still feel the aftermath of the explosion at the scene. At present, we don't know what happened, but from the scene It can be seen from some of the shots that the members of the Thunderbolt team were fighting at the scene... More details will not be known until we arrive at the scene of the explosion..."

Cooperating with Ke Lin's report, the cameraman turned the camera to the neighborhood where the explosion occurred, so that everyone in the studio could have a more intuitive understanding of the specific situation on the scene.

"Colin, can you hear me?"

"Are you safe now? Do you need to evacuate?"

In the studio, the host immediately asked about the specific situation of Ke Lin and others.

"We're safe now..."

Colin and the others were about two streets away from the block where the explosion occurred.

By the time the host spoke in the studio, it was almost here.

Stopping and taking a breath, Colin watched the police cars parked on the road and continued to report.

"It can be seen that the police have rushed to the scene, and the specific casualties of the explosion are not yet known..."

Following behind Colin, Smith recorded the scene with a video camera.

The thick smoke from the explosion made everything around it gray. Just standing here for more than ten seconds, the camera lens was covered with a thin layer of dust.

Not just the cameras, but Colin and Smith as well.

Witnessing the huge damage caused by the explosion, both Colin and the cameraman became subconsciously careful.

Cautiously walking among the wreckage in the street, Colin looked around while answering the studio host's question.

"...At present, some battle sounds can still be heard at the scene, which shows that the battle is quite fierce. We will try our best to ensure our own safety, and pass on the situation on the scene to everyone as much as possible."

"Okay, it's all about safety, Colin."

The situation of the live broadcast not only affected the hosts in the studio, but also affected the audience in front of the TV who watched the news.

【Faith (269/1000)】

At the same time, Colin at the scene saw.

The [Faith] points originally fixed at 268 points in the text also quietly increased a bit.

It seems that [Faith] is obtained not only by selling newspapers in the real world.

The anti-world also has the possibility of increasing 【Faith】.

"It's just, why does the [belief] of the anti-world increase, it seems that it is not as fast as the positive world?"

If we compare it in terms of the scale of the media and the speed of information dissemination.

No matter how you look at it, the legs of a newspaper boy in the Great Depression era cannot beat the footsteps of the Internet.

However, the increasing trend of [faith] in front of him clearly told Colin that this was not the case.

"Could it be that the development of the Internet media era has made it easier for people to receive information, but it has also caused people to be less and less patient with news, and everyone wants the latest information first-hand , instead of carefully studying every news in the newspaper as in the past.”

Of course, all this is just Colin's guess.

It doesn't represent the truth of the facts, especially now that he hasn't even figured out the specific role of [Faith].

"...how is the situation at the scene, Colin?"

Here, Colin fell into speculation because of the change in [Faith] in his eyes.

On the other side, in the studio, after a brief silence.

The host asked him again.

"Colin, can you hear me?"

"Yes, I heard..."

After recovering from the cameraman's reminder, Colin glanced at the surrounding situation and said: "In fact, we have already walked a distance at the explosion site, and we can see that the explosion has caused serious damage to the neighborhood. The wreckage of the battle is scattered all over the world, but fortunately, for now, we have not seen any injured people at the scene..."

Such an explosion without any casualties, Colin did not believe it.

So the only possibility right now is that someone transferred these injured people in the first place.

In this way, walking step by step in the shooting of the camera.

The picture under the lens became more and more gray.

"No, you won't be able to take pictures any further."

He stopped and called to Colin. Smith, who was in charge of filming, shook his head and said.

"It seems that we can only retreat."

Considering his own safety, Colin had to give up his plan to move on.

He had just been out of the hospital not long ago, but he had no intention of going back so soon.

"Sorry, everyone, considering the danger of the scene and the visibility under the surrounding smoke, we have to go back the same way..."

He turned around and apologized to the camera.

Ke Lin was about to return to the entrance of the block along the original road with the cameraman, but his eyes inadvertently saw a vague figure wrapped in a large windbreaker moving in the thick fog in the distance.

However, before he opened his mouth to say anything.

The figure was covered by thick fog and lost its trace.
