[Comprehensive British and American] The world is malicious

"Did you call the police, miss? You said the giant animal is inside?" The tall police officer stood in front of Nina with a sarcastic expression on his face. He opened the door of the basement and poked his head out to look inside. lookout.

"Miss, I think you should think clearly before calling the police. It's not fun to fool the police." The policeman turned around and said seriously. He didn't see a giant animal, maybe that giant animal was just a toy dog, The police officer glanced at the yellow plush toy floating on the water.

"Maybe you should call a mechanic instead of the police."

"Wait a minute...you should take another look. An ordinary basement won't look like this, unless water overflows from other places, right?" Nina said hastily, trying to make the police notice the strangeness of the basement.

The police officer glanced at Nina suspiciously, and then looked at the basement that had been turned into a swimming pool. Indeed, there was only one washing machine in the basement. Ordinary washing machines would never turn a huge basement into a swimming pool.

"This... oh... what is that?" The policeman was just about to speak, when he suddenly felt that his neck seemed to be a little dull, like a rusty gear.

An ostrich-like creature was huddled in a corner of the basement. It looked like a huge mural. At this moment, it was twisting its head to look at the policeman who suddenly stopped moving, and turned his head in doubt, and suddenly turned to The police came.

"Close the door!" Nina yelled.

The police officer seemed to speed up his actions in an instant, and closed the door at the last moment, holding the door handle tightly with both hands. There was a "boom" sound from inside, which deafened the police officer's ears, and even the heavy iron door was shocked. Then trembled.

"What was that just now?" The policeman sat on the ground in a daze, turned his head to look at Nina, his deep pupils were a little loose, and he was almost attacked by an unknown beast in the basement.

"As you can see...a giant animal." Nina considered her words, shrugged, and pulled up the police officer who had fallen to the ground. "I thought you would really send a professional over here."

Nina felt that it was like ordinary people saw a wizard. No one wanted to believe it. Compared with it, they were more willing to think that she was an idiot suffering from hallucinations.

"Um..." The policeman's expression became a little subtle. He looked at Nina in embarrassment, trying to restore his image as a policeman, coughed twice and said, "There are indeed professionals coming, and they are on their way."

Suddenly the policeman heard the sound of the siren and looked up out the window. When he saw figures coming towards the house, his delicate expression suddenly became joyful, as if he was verifying what he just said to Nina, and said, "They are here!"

Nina looked up at more and more police cars outside the window, but the police officers who got out of the police cars were not uniformed police officers, they looked more like a secret army or people who were temporarily invited.

Hope this is true, I don't want to be treated like a hypochondriac again.

In the next second, this meaningless worry became more intense, as if she was carrying a lively rabbit in her arms. Nina rubbed her eyes and looked out of the window again, her eyes widened instantly, showing an expression of disbelief.

She actually saw Professor Carter and Stephen. They are indeed professionals in the study of paleontology, but a few researchers who are almost equivalent to "animal evolutionists" can be used as firefighters. Are you really a man?

Carter, who was walking in front, was the first to notice the person guarding the door, "Nina?" Carter made a surprised sound, his amber eyes were full of surprise, he was stunned for a rare moment, and looked at Stephen who was walking behind .

They always thought that Nina had died in the belly of the ancient predator. After all, Alison saw the mosasaur swimming towards Nina with her own eyes, and Nina did not disappear because of this.

Stephen's state is obviously not much better, shock, joy, doubt... all kinds of emotions appear in his eyes like a palette, and he doesn't know how to react.Maybe he should walk over pretending to be calm, or approach Nina excitedly to ask what happened to Nina at the beach, why she appeared here, or even hug Nina without saying a word.

"I think" Nina received the attention of the two as soon as she opened her mouth. She tried her best to make her voice natural, but she still said like squeezing toothpaste: "You guys better come and have a look, there is an ostrich-like animal waiting inside. looking at you."

"We really don't have time to reminisce, everyone." Claudia reminded, she passed the two of them, and walked in front of Nina. Her long light brown hair gave her a sense of intellectual beauty, "You should also quickly evacuate here, But I hope you can go back with us later and make a detailed record, which is very important to us."

Nina looked at Claudia gratefully. If she continued to stay here, she would definitely pull off a lot of hair in embarrassment, "Yes, no problem." Nina gave Claudia a big smile and quickly said to Carter and Stephen waved their hands and fled.

After Nina left, the atmosphere outside the basement suddenly became serious and tense. More and more armed policemen poured into the living room, which made the already narrow living room very crowded.

After withdrawing from the house, Nina quickly walked to a small open space outside the house.The sun outside was just right, and the warm spring light shone on her body, making Nina want to become a cat, curled up lazily, basking in the sun.

"Hey, you should have passed through the anomalous point." Connor who was standing near the trunk suddenly turned his head and whispered to Nina, with an eager look on his young face, "My name is Connor, and I am a student of Professor Carter. , we can talk if we have time."

"You don't have to worry about him, Nina." Abby was holding the relevant equipment. Seeing Connor coming to help, she happily handed over all the heavy equipment, and at the same time winked at Nina, "My name is Abby, We met in the ward when Stephen was in the hospital, and at one point I thought I was in the wrong ward because, you know, Stephen never revealed that he had a girlfriend."

Abby said helplessly that they had become partners and understood each other, and it was obvious that Stephen hid his private life very deeply, and even Connor once guessed that he was gay, and he was unwilling to disclose this kind of private information among friends. This is nothing in the UK.

When Abby mentioned the ward, Nina immediately remembered what happened that day, especially the memory.Because she had just returned to London from Hogwarts that day and was about to start her wonderful summer vacation, but she received a call from Stephen as soon as she left Platform Nine and Three Quarters.

Stephen regretted the fact that he was unable to pick up people, and said that he had to be busy with work for a period of time and had no time to go back.

And the second Stephen hung up the phone, she received a call from the hospital and learned that the other party had been bitten by an unknown thing.

Facing Abby's ridicule, Nina spread her hands, "We are just neighbors, or brothers and sisters, not boyfriend and girlfriend, and he is always lucky all the time, I don't want to be his bad relationship."

"Lucky, what a lucky thing!" Due to the presence of the two ladies, Connor could only express emotion in a low voice, holding heavy equipment in his hands, and hurriedly followed his teammates who were no longer visible.

"See you later, Nina." Abby waved to Nina, and caught up with Connor who had already folded into the door.

After Connor and Abby left, only Nina and a number of empty police cars were left in the open space.

She looked around, but she didn't see Lisa and her two children. Maybe they were sent to another place by the police, or Lisa needed to send her two babies to school and left temporarily.

Anyway, she was alone here.

Nina squatted in front of the flowers bored, poking the pink petals with her fingers, thinking about her abuse of magic, and the fact that she had promised Avril Lavigne a visit before the holiday. They have always had a good friendship, and they often Tired of being together and sharing some secrets buried in our hearts.

For example, Avril Lavigne can't stand her new neighbor's personality very much. She can't understand why someone would clearly analyze the other person's lifestyle and personality when they first met. Her neighbor is undoubtedly the best.

Every time she meets her neighbor, Avril feels as if she has encountered a human scanner, and she is under tremendous psychological pressure all the time.

Moreover, Avril Lavigne's neighbor is obviously a person who advocates science. Avril Lavigne once said that if possible, she must fly a few times in front of her neighbor on a broomstick, so that he can taste the feeling of heart attack.

Nina has always listened to this as an anecdote, and now, she understands Avril Lavigne's sense of powerlessness a little bit, especially after seeing Stephen just now.

She had always thought that Stephen was just a good cook, his aesthetic vision was questionable, and he knew some shooting and sword skills. He was Professor Carter's assistant, and the two studied some paleontology together.She never expected that ancient creatures and giant beasts from ancient times were equated.
