Someone yelled in horror downstairs.

He judged the information instinctively.

Seeing that the people around him had rushed downstairs, Sam, who didn't know the situation, could only rush downstairs in a daze.

The temperature downstairs was obviously much colder than upstairs, and Sam was already shivering a little within two floors, as if he had walked into a large icehouse.

This is the third floor, and it is no longer possible to go down, because the space below has been submerged by sea water.

The screaming man collapsed in front of a small French window.

The gorilla police officer walked over, "Hey bro, what's up?"

The man barely spoke, just pointed to the window in front of him, his head curled between his legs.

The police officer frowned and looked closer, and then fell silent for a while, and Sam could even see that his mood had become very bad.

"What's wrong?" People asked curiously.

The gorilla police officer turned around, "You can watch for yourself, but not for minors."

Hearing these words, everyone had already guessed that the picture outside the window might not be too harmonious, but there were still people who bravely stepped forward to line up and stretched their necks to glance out the window.

Then these people also fell silent, either covering their mouths with their hands, or covering their eyes so as not to dare to look any more.

But with psychological preparation, no one was scared to scream.

Sam was also in line, and when it was his turn, he always felt as if the gorilla police officer was staring at him.

Sam cleared his throat and said quickly, "I'm 19 years old now."

The police officer stopped staring at him.

Sam took his place immediately after the previous man left with his mouth covered.

Then he saw what might be the most memorable scene in his life.

In the frozen sea outside, snowflakes kept falling from the sky, covering the ice with a layer of snow that was neither thick nor thin, turning the ice into a snowfield.

Then there were corpses, inserted in the flat snow field.

From the window, we can see the strange postures of the corpses outside. Some raised their hands high, some were as straight as a mast, and some had their heads down, only their leather shoes and trousers were exposed...

These are the corpses washed up with the tsunami. After the temperature dropped, they were frozen together with the sea water, and their strange postures were also frozen.

Sam's heart seemed to be blocked.

He saw a slender and white hand sticking out of the ice just under his nose, outside the floor-to-ceiling window, like a branch of white jade coral.

He had no doubt that there was a woman's body down there, if he had the means to get to the second floor, if the second floor window hadn't been broken.

Then he should be able to see a woman wrapped in ice through the window, stretching out her hand high before she died, trying to grab something...

Sam didn't make any sound except for his heartbeat and breathing, and stepped back covering his mouth.

Among the others who followed down, some chose to watch it and some chose not to watch it.

But this choice is irrelevant.

Everyone can guess what happened.

The invisible atmosphere became heavy again, and was about to be frozen by the lower and lower temperature.

……

The other side of New York City.

The rescue team led by Wang Lei has already selected a breakthrough.

He spoke in front: "Now the ice in New York City has frozen, but there is still a part under the ice that is not completely frozen, so it is not suitable for driving. We have to use sleds to get in."

"Everyone has to get back here before the storm hits."

The large forces of the rescue team left the anti-cold vehicles one after another and assembled outside with light equipment such as sleds.

Jack was also among the assembled team members.

He was wearing a protective suit, so he didn't feel a trace of coldness, and his heart was equally hot. He wished he could go to the city and find his son, even though he didn't even know his son's location...

Two colleagues, Frank and Jason, also saw his nervousness, and comforted him in unison:

"Be at ease, Jack. There will be a good end to this matter."

"So many search and rescue team members will definitely be able to find your son. We have all stayed in their time and space and know how powerful they are."

Jack nodded and didn't say much, but he couldn't calm down about this kind of thing anyway.

It was hard to wait until Wang Lei gave the order to enter the city.

Jack immediately boarded the motor sleigh, squeezed the accelerator and charged into the city.

By his side, other search and rescue team members made the same choice.

All of a sudden, hundreds of heavily armed sledges charged towards the high-rise buildings in the frozen city in the distance, and the flags of the Mutual Rescue Society and the coalition government were flying behind each vehicle without exception, forming a pulsating wave torrent.

Drip!

The first time Jack rushed into the city was to sound the horn of the sleigh, quickly alerting the survivors in the surrounding buildings.

It's just that it wasn't cheers that responded to him...

Bah!

A gunshot sounded suddenly.

Jack subconsciously crouched down, and then he heard the sound of shooing past him.

"There's a gunman, right in front of this blue building!"

He subconsciously yelled, and the words spread around the radio channel.

Before entering New York, they had already received news that there were many nervous gunmen in New York, but they did not expect that these people would be so nervous that they would shoot at the people who came to save them.

Jack held the front of the sled and walked the S route while looking for cover.

On the other side, other more professional rescue teams also quickly brought out professional guys.

Infrared-imaging drones quickly took off, and what was originally used to find survivors is now equally useful for finding gunmen.

"He was the only one in that blue building, on the 14th floor from the ice, on the right side of the 10th window from left to right, direct firepower..."

In less than a minute, a soldier took out a gun, aimed at the position detected by the drone, and shot back through the wall.

bah—

The bullet only flew for a while, and then came into close contact with the wall, and then there was a "boom", and a big hole was directly blasted into the wall that was hit, and the gunman hiding behind did not react until he died and killed himself It's a sniper grenade.

After cleaning up the nerve gunner, the rescue team continued to search and rescue.

However, with the shadow of the past, all the rescue teams chose to be cautious, preferring to slow down the search speed and pay attention to safety.

Anyway, they have no "performance" pressure.

Although they came here to save lives, and even this country is still a "brother country" for many people in the rescue team, but brothers and sisters, how can it be more important than your own life?

They come here to save people, but it doesn't mean they want to risk their own lives for these people.

And the number of people they can save is limited after all, and there are still a lot of survivors in New York, at least a few million.

Such a large number of people can easily fill up their rescue quota.

So even if they slow down the speed of rescue, they will definitely be able to fill up the number of rescuers before the storm comes, and if they find people later but cannot be rescued, it will only add to the discomfort.

No, after sweeping a building at random, the rescue team easily pulled out more than 300 unlucky people who were blue from the cold and trembling all over.

And such buildings were everywhere in New York City before the storm...

There is no need to worry about saving.

Jack knew and understood the thoughts of these rescue teams.

But he couldn't agree.

Because these rescue teams did not help him find his son.

Even every survivor found by the rescue team may squeeze his son's survival quota, it's as simple as that.

Jack was relieved from the shooting incident just now. Seeing the many survivors picked up from the building by the rescue team, everyone looked happy, and he felt anxious in his heart.

He took out the map from his body and quickly locked on to the target——

He wants to visit the school where his son competed before.

This is his only clue...

At the same time when Jack started to look for his son thousands of miles away.

Sam is also looking at the sky thinking about his family.

He actually regretted it now.

Although love seems to have made progress, it seems that he has lost more, for example, he has completely lost contact with his family.

He doesn't remember his father's mobile phone number, nor does he know his mother's movements, which means that after the disaster, it will be difficult for him to get in touch with his family again in a short time.

And it's not just him.

Laura and Brian are also worried about their parents.

JD is worried about his younger brother and father.

And everyone else in the library, no one is not worried about their family and friends during this time.

Soon it was time to eat.

Everyone chewed the pitifully small amount of food, paired with a little water and the thoughts in their minds, and then caught the radio broadcast, so it was a meal.

"The following is news from New York. The rescue team of our Mutual Rescue Society has entered the New York City area to carry out rescue operations. The current main scope of action is... Please stay in the safe zone for people not in this area, and do not actively seek rescue teams..."

The sudden news on the radio caught everyone off guard.

Sam froze in place, feeling that his heart was suddenly grabbed.

"Someone is here?!"

Chapter 267

There was an instant commotion in the library.

"How long will it take for them to come and rescue us?" Some people on the periphery shouted loudly, leading others to shout together.

The police officers maintaining order could not even hear the sound of the radio.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

The gorilla officer stood up while making a louder noise.

Seeing his figure like Dinghaishenzhen, the crowd became much quieter.

The police officer took this opportunity to speak: "It has been said on the radio that the rescue team has only reached Staten Island, and we are now in Manhattan..."

The rescue team set off from Washington, New York is just northeast of Washington.

Among the five districts of New York—the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island, Staten Island happens to be located in the southwest, across the river from the other four districts.

If it was normal, Washington would naturally have a road leading directly to Manhattan, but the current situation... heavy snow blocking roads is an understatement, and the real situation is that there is no road at all.

In addition, the rescue team was not familiar with the road conditions in this time and space at all, so Wang Lei and the others did not follow the road from Washington to New York at all, relying on the chassis of special vehicles to go as fast as they could, and it could even be said to be walking in a straight line.

This walk naturally leads to Staten Island in southwest New York.

When Sam heard that the rescue team was still on Staten Island, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

This is too far away from the Manhattan area where they live...

Between Staten Island and Manhattan is New York Harbor, where the famous Statue of Liberty stands.

Usually you can take a taxi there, but how can you take a taxi now?

"What are we going to do?" Laura asked him softly beside them, and JD and Brian were also squatting beside them, with their hands in their pockets, and their whole bodies huddled.

"Are you going to find them? If you go out now, you can only walk..."

Sam weighed it for a while, and said, "This is too dangerous, and it was said on the radio, let us not take the initiative to go there."

JD said: "But if we don't take the initiative, I'm afraid we won't last long."
