Transcendent David
Chapter Four
The explosion just now did not cause any damage to the translucent shadow. All the rubble and splashes passed directly through the translucent shadow.
David wanted to order the translucent shadow to come back, but he felt a sense of satisfaction from the translucent shadow, as if he was full.
Outside he can't see, the translucent shadow is stopping at a distance of ten meters away, which is the maximum distance that the translucent shadow can leave him.
This location also happens to be the door to the bookstore's complete disappearance. A trail of unseen matter is attracted by the translucent shadow, flying towards the translucent shadow and entering its body.
If anyone counts them, they can find that the number of these nihilistic substances is exactly the number of deaths.
David feels that his connection with the translucent shadow is getting closer and closer. If the 2G network of the mobile phone used before is connected to the translucent shadow, now it is like using a 3G network connection, which is what he is now. feel.
He didn't understand what was going on, but he knew that there was nothing wrong with the translucent shadow, but it seemed to have gained some benefits, so he didn't care about the translucent shadow.
After all, the time for him to get the translucent shadow is too short, so short that he has no ability to truly understand the translucent shadow.
David tried to stand up. The injury behind his back was a bit painful, but it didn't make much difference. He walked to the bathroom door where the metal door was missing.
Stepping on the stagnant water on the ground, he walked cautiously, and there were debris from the explosion everywhere on the ground.
Suddenly he stopped, because he saw a metal cylindrical object, the thickness is just right for one hand to hold, the length is about 20 centimeters, and the hollow inside is black, glass-like mirrors hold the two ends of the metal cylinder Sealed.
In this chaotic environment, the metal cylinder is extremely clean, and it is so clean that people have to pay attention to it.
Even if David was ignorant of the world, he knew that this was not an ordinary item, so he stooped and picked it up.
He didn't have the thought of possessing this metal cylinder, but he thought that he couldn't just leave it here. Of course, there was a curious element in it.
Putting the metal cylinder in his pocket, he walked out of the bathroom. Compared with the inside of the bathroom, the damage in the bookstore lobby was more serious.
The whole bookstore was filled with choking smoke. The transparent glass wall and door outside the bookstore had disappeared. Large patches of red blood clots and whole or damaged human bodies were scattered inside and outside the store.
When the personal flying shuttle collided with the crowd, the crowd was unable to avoid it in time due to the excessive speed of the personal flying shuttle and the crowded surroundings.
The personal flying shuttle finally disintegrated, and then its backup energy source exploded, leaving almost no survivors in this area.
David had a nausea that wanted to vomit. He knew very well that there were nearly a hundred people gathered outside the bookstore, but at this time there were only a dozen complete corpses, the most being metal shards and bloody shards.
His brain was blank, but he was quickly awakened by a miserable moan.
David was about to step forward to help the struggling people who fell on the ground, but he heard the sound of police sirens from the air, and then he saw two blue and white police patrol flying vehicles approaching.
He couldn't help but stop. This kind of injury is best done by a professional person. Since the rescue comes, he doesn't need to intervene.
A blue and white police patrol ship hovered on the road in front of the bookstore, and a dozen uniformed policemen jumped from above.
All the policemen were stunned by the sight before them, and immediately became busy amidst all kinds of shouts.
The only David who was able to stand completely on the scene was paid special attention, and police came to him.
"Are you okay?" A middle-aged policeman asked David while checking David's identity bracelet with an instrument in his hand.
David shook his head. He didn't speak because he saw Jessica's body.
The girl who was traveling with her in the morning fell into a pool of blood, and a piece of metal fragments of a personal flying shuttle was inserted into her heart.
"I'm Police Officer Bob, the medical staff will be here soon, and they will take care of your injury!" The middle-aged police officer, Police Officer Bob, looked at the instrument in his hand and knew that this was still a student. When he saw David's look, he couldn't help but David tapped for comfort.
David has no memory of Jessica, but he knows that Jessica and his predecessor are at least friends, otherwise he would not come to the bookstore together.
He couldn't say how he felt about Jessica's death. It was neither sad nor sad. What he had in his heart at this time was fear, an extreme fear.
If he didn't perceive the danger from the translucent shadow, there would be him among the fallen corpses on the ground.
He nodded at Officer Bob dazedly, but still looked at Jessica's body.
The second batch of white ambulances arrived, and David was surprised by the city's rapid emergency response.
Just three minutes after the explosion here, the police and medical staff had all arrived.
This did not make David happy, because it explained the danger here. It is precisely because of the frequent dangers that the police and medical staff have such a rapid response ability.
He thought of the buildings without windows and the cities he saw. The beauty is not important, but the solidity is the most important.
A medical staff treated the wound on his back and helped him put some medicine on the burn on his hand.
After the medical staff showed that the body was not serious, David did not get on the ambulance and went to the hospital.
Part of the reason is that he wants to go home immediately. Relatively speaking, that is where he feels the safest. The other reason is that the wounded who were transported to the ambulance were very injured, and those who could scream were in better condition. .
Knowing that his body was not in serious trouble, he didn't want to experience this tragic situation again.
Officer Bob left the contact information of the identity bracelet on David's wrist so that the police could contact him later so that he could leave the scene and leave the bookstore.
When he left the bookstore, he perceives a translucent shadow right behind him, and none of the police can find it.
At a distance of three kilometers, David ran back home quickly, completely ignoring the pedestrians on the road looking at him in embarrassment.
As soon as he entered the house, he immediately closed the door heavily, and then he leaned on the door like this.
Although he was a person who died once, he was still shocked by the danger today.
He sat weakly on the ground, from the peaceful world to the dangerous world he didn't understand, he felt a deep panic.
The novelty of this world for the first time was broken by the sudden danger, especially the tragic death of the Jessica he knew before him. This feeling was something he had never experienced in his previous life.
At this time, he most hoped that someone could comfort him, but with the memory that he had not recovered, he didn't know who to talk to, let alone the things he traveled through, but his greatest secret, he couldn't share it with others at all, he thought about it. Translucent shadow.
Just as he was thinking, the translucent shadow accepted his thoughts, appeared from his invisibility, and sat beside him.
Seeing the translucent shadow next to him, he couldn't help but feel at ease for a while. In the most dangerous moment, the translucent shadow saved him.
Imagine that he saw the translucent shadow last night. At first he was shocked, but later discovered that there was no danger. He regarded it as a golden finger for crossing, and made all kinds of ridiculous methods for activating the golden finger.
Now David was full of gratitude. He stretched out his hand to pat the translucent shadow as if he were a friend.
