Chapter 972
When those young men saw Sylvia, they felt a bit speechless.
"Why is there another woman? It's already dangerous and chaotic enough here, and now there's a woman coming to meddle."
One of the men spoke with a displeased tone, "Miss, please leave quickly. It's very dangerous here, and you're just causing trouble."
Sylvia paused for a moment and then smiled underwater, "How do you know I'm causing trouble?"
Just then, Jasper swam over again, holding a metal rod he found somewhere, "Let's use this to pry open the car door."
"The water pressure is too strong, and even with all of us, it might not work," Franklin frowned, "But we can try."
So, everyone started to work together to pry open the car door.
But the water flow was too rapid, the pressure was too great, and the car was extremely unbalanced.
The difficulty was very high.
Just as everyone was about to give up and think of another way, there were signs of the door loosening.
Jasper encouraged everyone, "Come on!"
The man trapped in the car also pushed the door with all his might, and finally!
The door was successfully opened, and he finally crawled out of the car, feeling relieved.
With the oxygen inside the car getting less and less, he was almost suffocating.
After rescuing this man, they went to explore other cars to see if anyone else was trapped inside. Soon, they found another car! The car was constantly bumping and floating in the water, looking very dangerous.
The cries of children in the water were almost inaudible, but Sylvia still heard them.
"There are children in this car."
"How do you know?" They hadn't swam over yet, and the young man from earlier looked at her with suspicion.
"I heard it," Sylvia blinked. This man seemed like a troublemaker, and she didn't feel like dealing with him.
But in her eyes, anyone who did good deeds was a good person. So even though he was rude to her, she didn't mind.
Franklin, however, looked the man up and down, his voice cold as he protected his wife, "If you can help, then help. If not, stop wasting words!"
"As a man, you only know how to talk, resorting to sexism, interesting?"
Even underwater, his expression seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, making the man suddenly stunned, feeling that the surrounding water became colder.
How could this man still be so imposing underwater?
Unbelievable!
He remained silent and swam away faster in fear.
Sylvia couldn't help but smile, "He's not bad, he knows to help us rescue people together."
"Hmph!" Franklin snorted coldly and took her hand to swim forward together.
Finally approaching the car, inside were actually a family of four.
Two adults and two children, the children huddled in the adults' arms, crying breathlessly.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
With such a strong water flow, it was natural for them to be frightened.
When they saw many people gathered outside the car, even the two adults shed tears of excitement. By this time, their car was already filled with a lot of water, almost reaching their necks. The children, about five or six years old, were twins. Their eyes were full of fear, but when they saw people outside, their eyes lit up with hope.
Sylvia sighed, who wouldn't be afraid in this situation?
They could suffocate to death at any moment.
The metal rod came in handy again, and everyone began to work hard to pry open the car door. However, this car was a commercial vehicle, which was already heavy and cumbersome. With a lot of water inside now, it was not easy to pry it open.
The man inside the car handed the children to his wife and began to push the door with all his might. His breathing was already difficult, but the courage of a person on the brink of death was immense. With a bang!
The door was pried open, and water rushed in continuously.
But Sylvia stretched out her hands, "Save the children first, then the adults!"
She took the first child and handed it to Franklin, then went to get the second child.
The two nearly identical twin boys were lifted by two men over their heads.
Just then, the man pushed the woman out again. At the moment she was pushed out, a wave of water surged violently, and the car door was about to close again!
"Honey! Don't-" The woman let out a scream of despair. She had already grabbed Sylvia's hand, but at the moment the door closed, it slammed into her abdomen, her body caught between the door and the
car seat.
The tremendous force of this closing door, combined with the impact of the rushing water, was not ordinary.
It was almost as if it contained the force of a thousand pounds, hitting her body fiercely.
Blood gushed out of her lower abdomen, staining the murky rainwater around her bright red.
Her originally pale face instantly turned as white as paper.
"Mom-Mom-" the children's cries were continuous, "Mom-"
The man was almost too scared to move her, and could only shout helplessly, "Honey, are you okay?"
But the woman had already passed out from the pain.
Franklin and Jasper pushed the car door open again, and Sylvia took the opportunity to swim out with the woman in her arms. She didn't even have time to check the woman's pulse.
"I need to get her out quickly and take her to the hospital. Her husband is up to you!"
Sylvia said and swam out with all her strength. The woman's body was soaking in this muddy water, and where Sylvia swam with her, there was a trail of faint red water. That was the woman's blood!
What they didn't know was that at this moment, nearly a hundred people were trapped in subway carriages in the X subway of this city.
Many people's breathing was getting weaker, almost suffocating.
Some had started to call their families to settle their affairs, some were explaining their bank passwords, and everyone was saying goodbye to their loved ones.
Some took advantage of their phones still having power to post the situation inside the carriage on TikTok and Twitter, asking for help.
The flooding of Line X of the subway almost touched the hearts of everyone.
Evie and the people from Royal Galaxy immediately rushed to Line X of the subway when they heard about it.
She was petite, but very agile in the water.
Today she didn't wear those gorgeous Lolita dresses, but a simple life jacket, with a lifebuoy strapped around her.
Only out, not in, was the rule at the subway entrance. Some subway staff were conducting rescue operations inside, but the staff's strength was simply not enough to rescue so many people.
The subway was filled with water everywhere, and many people were trying to get out. Everyone held hands and moved out together, afraid of being swept away by the water if they were left alone.
The subway tunnel was so deep that if someone was swept away, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The staff guarding the subway
entrance saw Evie, who was so
petite, rushing in and immediately stopped her. "Ma'am, you can't go in, it's very dangerous inside. We're waiting for professional rescuers to arrive. Please don't go in."
"I'm going in to save people," Evie said, glaring at the staff with round eyes. "We are professionals. Can't you see? The people behind me are all rescue workers I brought. We have all the necessary tools."
Only then did the staff see the dozens of burly men behind her... each wearing headlamps, carrying rescue shovels, wearing life jackets, and with lifebuoys around their waists...
This... scene is a bit horrifying!
So, this petite girl is leading them? It doesn't look like it at all!
"We're from Royal Galaxy, the Royal Galaxy rescue team. Have you heard of it? Royal Galaxy Restaurant!" Evie said anxiously, "Please don't stop me anymore, every second counts for rescuing people!"
After saying that, Evie directly picked up the staff and moved him aside. With a wave of her hand, she said, "Everyone, hurry up and go in!"
He could only watch as a large group rushed into the subway station, with Evie leading the way to the innermost carriage.
"The doors won't open. Pry open the carriage doors, or if that doesn't work, break the glass!"
Although the girl was petite, her voice was loud!
With her call, the people trapped in the carriage started to panic. "There's so much water outside. Don't break it, or we'll all drown!"
"Yeah, don't break it!"
"Pry it open!"
"Prying it open is the best!"
Seeing so many people coming to rescue them, the previously panicked crowd's timid emotions instantly turned into relief. They began to sob loudly, "We're saved!"
"We're not going to die!"
At this moment, rescue personnel from relevant departments, dressed in blue, also arrived. The professionals were even more decisive. "Break it! We must break the glass!" So, the sound of glass being smashed echoed incessantly.
Some with weaker constitutions were already suffocating in the water, while others were barely holding on, their bodies swaying unsteadily.
Everyone supported each other, not daring to slack off.
They would remind each other from time to time, "Don't fall asleep. We'll be rescued soon."
"You can lean on me, it's okay."
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the glass was finally shattered, and rushing water poured out of the carriage. Rescue workers rushed into the carriage, "Quick, quick, save people!"
Those who could walk went out, those who couldn't were carried by rescue workers, and a few were lifted out by them.
One man carried an unconscious woman on his back, holding an old person's hand.
Evie put a lifebuoy on a young girl. "If you can't swim, you can wear this and walk out, or you'll be washed away by the water." Though she was petite, she was strong enough to carry two girls on her back.
