Chapter 124 The only victim of this disaster!
After the earthquake, many Chinese people in China tried to contact their friends abroad.
But there was still no way to get in touch.
These overseas Chinese all have their own social circles.
They soon learned about the strong earthquake that had occurred abroad through some areas where the Internet was still available.
At the same time, the country also released information about the earthquake of magnitude 6.0 or above that occurred abroad.
Since this earthquake affected many countries, the earthquake intensity released was in addition to the one that had already been monitored.
There are also many countries where the intensity of various places is marked as "unknown intensity".
In addition, the levels of heavy rainfall that can be monitored in various countries are also announced.
Because it was just after midnight, most people were still asleep.
Therefore, as soon as this news was released, it quickly became a hot search and firmly occupied the top position.
The major comment sections were in an uproar, with people expressing their opinions one after another.
It can be said that before a message is finished being read, a bunch of new comments will be added to the comment section.
Some are shocked and curious about what the state is capable of.
"Damn, did the country know about the disaster long ago? Is that why Chinese people living abroad are coming back?"
"What has the country invented that can predict disasters in advance?"
"Yeah, it's strange, how did the country know that?"
"How else can we explain why no one overseas noticed anything, but China knew the news a week in advance?"
“What kind of technology or tools did the country invent to predict the arrival of this disaster so accurately?”
"I also want to know what the country has researched. Why was there no news about it before?"
"This technology is probably still confidential and won't be easily made public, but it's really awesome!"
There are also some people who, while feeling fortunate that they obediently returned home, also express concern and sympathy for their compatriots who are still staying abroad.
This earthquake was so terrible. Fortunately, I came back. Otherwise, I would be in a foreign country with nowhere to turn for help!"
"Yes, I am really grateful to the country. Fortunately, I am back."
"Fortunately, I listened to the country and came back, otherwise I would be the one buried abroad now."
"When the earthquake hit, I was video chatting with my friend who was overseas. As a result, he was crushed by the house before he could even run out. I have not been able to contact him since then."
"You are not the worst off. After my friend was crushed, the internet connection was not disconnected. I was able to receive her calls for help even in China. It was raining heavily there, but I could do nothing."
"I am so lucky. I had no intention of returning, but my grandfather happened to come back to worship our ancestors, so we all came back.
If I hadn't come back, I couldn't imagine what the consequences would be. No, I must pay more for this ancestor worship."
Some people on the Internet were glad that they had returned to their motherland, but some people whose relatives had not returned home started cursing wildly on the Internet.
"The country knew the disaster was going to happen, so why didn't they just say it? My son couldn't come back home, and now I can't even get in touch with him!"
"My daughter is still studying abroad and I can't get in touch with her. Can the country send someone to rescue her? She is my only precious daughter."
"Yes, the country can obviously save everyone, why doesn't it just disclose the truth?"
Once these idiotic remarks and those made with a virtuous heart were made, they immediately attracted fierce criticism from people in the comment section.
None of them obeyed the country's arrangements and commands.
Besides, who would believe such a major event if it had not actually happened?
I guess if the country had said it directly at the time, no one would have taken it seriously.
And although there is no earthquake in the country now, it is raining heavily.
Heavy rain warnings have begun to be issued in various places.
Due to sudden rainfall in some areas, low-lying houses began to be flooded.
Fortunately, however, these situations are still under control.
There were no casualties!
The rainstorm lasted only one day in the country before stopping, and only a few low-lying areas were affected to some extent.
For cities with well-developed drainage systems, the rainstorm had almost no negative impact.
Just when people thought that China did not suffer much loss from this disaster, something unexpected happened.
It turned out that some foreigners in the country were dissatisfied with China's expulsion of foreigners with criminal records before the disaster.
They believe that such actions led to their suffering earthquakes and loss of life abroad.
One of the deported island relatives learned that his brother was brought back to the island.
Because of an earthquake on the island country, his brother was buried under the rubble and died.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. He wanted to take revenge on the Chinese.
In the end, he chose to detonate a gas tank inside the house in an attempt to blow up the entire building.
However, he overestimated the power of the gas tank.
In the end, he only killed himself and did not cause any harm to others.
In this way, he became the only casualty in China in this global disaster.
Because the man was a foreign islander and he was the only casualty, the incident quickly spread throughout China and attracted widespread attention.
After all, he was the only injured person in this disaster.
Even if it's your own fault!
But his incident has fuelled resentment among other expatriates towards the islanders.
After all, China has always been one of the safest countries in the world, and it is not easy to stay here on a normal day.
As for obtaining a green card in China, that is even more difficult, and can even be said to be a luxury.
Now China has the ability to predict disasters in advance, which makes them very shocked and excited.
In particular, China was able to survive this global disaster unscathed without any casualties.
Such a safe country makes them want to stay in China.
I don't want to leave this land easily.
However, there are now other foreigners who deliberately make trouble and destroy China's impression of other overseas Chinese.
This made them extremely angry, and they wanted to drive these troublemakers out of China.
At the same time, they were also worried that the Chinese top leaders would change their attitude towards them because of this island countryman and drive them away as well.
Given China's previous experience of expelling other foreign Chinese who had committed crimes, they believe that China is really likely to do it.
Now, China's top leaders are actively participating in foreign aid work and providing humanitarian support to some disaster-stricken countries.
The earthquake lasted only one time, and the aftershocks were relatively small.
But other countries have experienced earthquakes except China, so we need aid no matter what.
Of course, these aid recipients are all countries that have long-term friendly and cooperative relations with China.
For those countries that have poor relations with China.
Ha ha!
They don't have enough manpower, so they can only provide assistance to a few countries.
It just so happens that this time we can use the newly developed external mechanical skeleton to test the effect of field rescue.
Given the frequency of disasters occurring on Blue Planet now, there will be more places where external mechanical skeletons will be needed in the future.
