Chapter 100: Rain from 10 Years Ago

“Emergency evacuation! The flood is coming!”

Gao Ming stared at the monitor. The ticking time was like a giant weight on everyone’s body.

“Don’t just stand there! Run!”

The news about Li Sui Dam bursting appeared in Gao Ming’s mind. The storm a decade ago caused the old city and Da Zai to be flooded. The dam burst at midnight, so there were a lot of injured and missing people. The rain from ten years ago fell on Gao Ming. The tragedy repeated itself. Gao Ming screamed. He didn’t care if the customers in the supermarket were humans or ghosts.

Gao Ming didn’t run, and neither did Zhang Ding. Both of them ran into the supermarket to evacuate the customers. The old city’s plumbing system was bad. Soon, the water started to overflow into the supermarket. The dirty water swamped the clean floor. The customers put down their purchases and ran. Time ticked by. Gao Ming ran to Zhu Suisui and the bespectacled newbie. “The Li Sui Dam just burst! This is the flood from ten years ago. The people here should be the victims from back then!”

“The victims from ten years ago are here?!” The newbie was confused.

“The countdown is almost over. Have you found the children’s bodies?” Gao Ming was anxious. “We might not be facing ghosts, but a flood from ten years ago!” “The two kids are not dead, and they are running away! How can we find their bodies?” “The corpses on the work table might not be actual corpses. They could be something else. After all, in the shadow world, anything can happen.” Gao Ming said seriously. He didn’t hide his identity anymore. “Did you two discover anything strange?” God of Flesh and Blood kept giving off warnings. This was something Gao Ming had not encountered. If he didn’t handle this well, he might die there.

“We’ve searched the supermarket. Everything is normal, but we found a few rooms in the warehouse. The three kids appeared to have run there.” Zhu Suisui was still holding onto her axe. The axe was the only thing that could bring her security.

“Warehouse?” Gao Ming saw Zhang Ding, who was still helping the customers, and shouted, “Brother Zhang, the kids are inside the warehouse!”

“Get the elders out first! And then protect yourself!” Zhang Ding said that and rushed to the warehouse alone.

Gao Ming didn’t dare to delay. “Suisui, go to help the customers! Inform the other investigators. I’m going with Zhang Ding to save the kids!”

“But they are ghosts! If we break the rules by opening the door, what will happen? I heard from Captain Bai that ghosts will lure us into breaking the rules in the anomaly.” The bespectacled newbie was scared. After all, he was surrounded by dead victims in a supermarket in the middle of the night.

Gao Ming didn’t stay to listen. He grabbed Zhu Suisui’s axe and ran to the warehouse. I saw Zhang Ding shouting his son’s name.

“They might be in the inner room. Break down the door!”

The past tragedy wasn’t important. The important thing was Gao Ming wanted to change the tragedy. Gao Ming kicked the door, but it didn’t move, so he raised the axe. Every second was important. He couldn’t waste too much time.

“Zhang Fendou!” Water was already in the warehouse. Zhang Ding took out a ring of keys.

The wooden door was chopped down. The splinters flew everything. Gao Ming broke in and used the fastest speed to find the three stunned kids.

“Found them!” Gao Ming put the axe aside, picked up the kids and ran. “The flood is coming! We need to go to higher ground!”

Before Zhang Ding and he came out of the warehouse, more screams came from outside the supermarket. The customers who just ran out came back into the supermarket. The countdown on the monitor dropped to zero. The water churning with sand and trash rushed over. It was like an unstoppable beast.

The shelves were knocked over. The two customers at the door couldn’t evade them. They were dragged away. They barely had the chance to scream. The water level in the supermarket rose until it could reach the children’s chest. The waves moved around. The scary memory was too real. This scary storm instilled great despair.

“We can’t leave! The flood is coming in!”

Everyone was panicking. If they left then, they would die. But if they stayed, they wouldn’t hang on much longer.

“Xiao Gao! Pull the door down! Jing Jing, go to close the windows! Stop the water!” Zhang Ding carried a ladder out of the warehouse. “Get over here! We’ll get through the vents to the top! We need to get as high as we can!”

Zhang Ding climbed up the stairs and knocked down the vent covering. He jumped back down into the water. He pushed the kids up. “Elders and children should go first! Get the young people to help!” “I’ll hold the ladders. Go and help Xiao Gao!” Uncle Li grabbed the ladder. “The water is too strong. We can’t close the door!” The water rose quickly. Zhang Ding and Gao Ming waded against the current. They wanted to close the door, but the water slammed into them. Gao Ming gritted his teeth. He felt so powerless. It was like his fight against fate. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t touch the door, much less escape through it. The ladder shook as the water rammed into it. Even the weak old lady for helping hold down the ladder for the kids. The products fell. Everyone’s focus was on the ladder. No one noticed the shelves were shaking.

“Be careful!” Zhang Ding, who was slightly wounded, suddenly shouted. The shelf with soy sauces and condiments was tipped over. The heavy steel shelf was about to hit the kids. Zhang Fendou was on the ladder. When he saw the shelf falling, he was stunned.

“Gong Xi!”

Eight large arms grabbed the shelf. Gao Ming’s fingers pressed on his chest. God of Flesh and Blood crawled out from the back of his heart. Everyone, including Zhu Suisui and the newbie, was stunned.

“The evil ghost heard my voice and promised me a life in exchange for another.”

Gao Ming saved Zhang Fendou. He didn’t turn and walk to the entrance. The eight arms grabbed the door. Gong Xi closed the door and used his large body to block the water! “Don’t get trapped in here! Get up to the top!”

Goa Ming shouted. He knew the nightmare wouldn’t end so easily.

The glass cracked. The floor leaked through the cracks. The water level was still rising but a bit slower than before. Compared to ten years ago, Gao Ming bought ten more minutes for everyone. The kids, elders and some of the customers had reached the top of the supermarket. Zhang Ding waved at the bespectacled newbie and Zhu Suisui. “Quick! I’ll help you hold the ladder. Get up first!”
