"At around 10: 25 this morning, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck the northern part of Turkey. The epicenter was only 200 kilometers away from Istanbul, the capital of Turkey. The capital was severely affected, and many houses have collapsed. Currently, rescue work is still in progress. Based on the current situation, it is estimated that at least a million people have been affected, and the number of casualties is estimated to be in the tens of thousands. The Turkish government has yet to announce the specific figures …"
"… According to the Turkish government, the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Seismological Observatory received an earthquake warning from the Hua Xia Seismological Bureau and the Hua Xia Ministry of Foreign Affairs 40 minutes before the earthquake occurred. The government has issued an earthquake evacuation notice, and a large number of Turkish citizens have taken refuge in safe areas before the earthquake occurred. The Turkish Prime Minister, Razhamud, also confirmed this news at an emergency press conference. He expressed his gratitude to the Hua Xia government and the Hua Xia Seismological Bureau for lending a helping hand through the media. He also said that the Turkish people will remember the kindness of the Hua Xia people. Turkey and Hua Xia … "
"… The United Nations has launched an emergency disaster relief clause, and the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has organized an international rescue team to go to Turkey for rescue … The Hua Xia government has responded by sending a rescue team to participate in the rescue …"
All kinds of emergency news flashed across the television. In the apartment, Li Huailin and Fu Weiwei both watched the news with serious expressions. Yes, the prophecy had indeed come true. At almost exactly 10: 24, a major earthquake struck the northern part of Turkey. Currently, there was no way to calculate the specific situation, but just by watching the video report on the television, they felt that it was definitely a very serious accident.
Li Huailin's previous method had indeed worked. Because it was the official diplomatic notice from Hua Xia, the Turkish people still believed it. Although their seismological observatory did not detect any problems at all, Hua Xia's monitoring was more accurate, and they repeatedly emphasized that it was not a joke. Then, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also sent a notice, so the Turkish people really believed it. Therefore, the Turkish government naturally issued an evacuation notice.
Fortunately, Turkey was also a country with relatively frequent earthquakes. After all, it was located at the intersection of continental plates, and there had been all kinds of major earthquakes in history. Therefore, the residents' awareness of prevention was relatively strong, and they were basically aware of and prepared for earthquakes. After receiving the official evacuation notice, although they were a little panicked, most of the citizens were lucky enough to evacuate to a safe area before the earthquake began. This really saved many people.
Of course, it was impossible to completely avoid casualties in such a large earthquake. Although the evacuation notice was issued, the time was too short, so many people still suffered. But at least, the worst situation was avoided. From the Turkish government's stance, it could be seen that they were very grateful to the Hua Xia's government for their reminder.
This time, the Hua Xia government really showed its face internationally. Not only did it show the level of their country's earthquake monitoring and prediction, but it also saved so many people. Of course, this was praised by the international community. No matter which country they were from, they all praised the behavior of the Hua Xia government this time. There was also a lot of good comments on the Internet. A large number of international friends swarmed into the various forums of Hua Xia to like the Hua Xia government, and the netizens of Hua Xia felt that they had suddenly straightened their backs.
Of course, the Hua Xia government accepted all these praises, but after closing the door, the internal investigation would be different.
"What's going on? Why did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs send a letter to the Turkish government? And what's going on with the Seismological Bureau? Who gave this order, and why am I the last to know? "At the closed-door meeting, the person sitting at the top asked a group of people to his left and right with a puzzled look on his face.
"Chief, I just found out about it too." Someone next to him stood up and said, "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs didn't send any documents to the Turkish government at all."
"Chief, it's the same on our side. We didn't detect this earthquake at all. This is a plate boundary earthquake, and plate boundary earthquakes are the most difficult earthquakes to monitor. All of our instruments didn't detect any abnormalities. I really don't know why the Turkish government said that we sent a letter to inform them."
"Then tell me what's going on. Why did the Turkish government say that we informed them? If they predicted it themselves, they could just say that they predicted it themselves. Why did they insist on saying that we reminded them? Tell me, what's the purpose of this?" the Chief said.
The group of people looked at each other. That's right, they didn't know what was going on either. This wasn't what they said. They also didn't know what was wrong with the Turkic government. They insisted on saying that it was because of the help from Huaxia. If it was a bad thing, then so be it. At least they knew how to deal with it. But no matter how they looked at it, this was not a bad thing. It was obviously a good thing to improve Hua Xia's international image, and they couldn't tell what was going on. Anyway, for some reason, they felt that the other party was giving them a favor, and they even did it during the earthquake. They didn't know what the Turkish government was thinking.
At present, the Turkish government was, of course, busy with all kinds of disaster relief and had no time to communicate with Hua Xia about the situation. As for the letters that were sent, Hua Xia couldn't get them for the time being. They couldn't contact them at all, so they couldn't verify the matter for the time being. The closed-door meeting didn't produce any results. The Chief also informed everyone to be careful of possible accidents and make preparations to deal with them. Then, of course, the Turkish government would send reinforcements, and of course, they needed relief supplies. Seeing that the Turkish government had helped Hua Xia for some reason, the amount of relief supplies this time was especially large.
Back in Li Huailin's apartment, Li Huailin was cleaning up. Previously, because the situation was too urgent, his invasion was relatively violent. Now that it had happened, it was useless to say anything. He just had to clean up the traces of his previous invasion so that the higher-ups wouldn't be able to find out what was going on.
"It really happened …" Fu Weiwei said solemnly. "This code is real. Not only is it a historical record, but it also predicts what will happen in the future …"
"So, at least part of our guess might be true, right?" Li Huailin said as he typed the code. "This is very likely to be something from the future …"
"But at least you did a good deed," Fu Weiwei said. "What are you going to do now? This matter … "
"I told you not to report it to the higher-ups. Otherwise, you won't be able to handle such a situation alone." Li Huailin said, "At present, we don't know much, so it's best to investigate it alone. This matter … Don't tell anyone else, including the people in your department."
"Okay …" Fu Weiwei immediately nodded. In fact, she thought so too. After thinking for a while, she asked again, "You said that you were going to contact Liu Heyun …"
"Yes, I'm going to contact him. After all, he's a scientist, so he might know a little about this. Besides, I don't think he'll tell anyone. After all, he has a lot of secrets." Li Huailin said, "Of course, I'll contact him after I finish the second round of the trial."
"You still want to participate in the second round of the trial? Things are already like this, "Fu Weiwei asked.
"Because things are getting weirder and weirder, of course, I have to participate." Li Huailin said, "This trial mission is unusual no matter how you look at it. You see, this code can only be read in the game, and this trial happens to be so closely related to the previous temple incident. Of course, I have to see what's going on. Maybe there will be some clues."
"Well … I'm a little panicked here." Fu Weiwei hadn't calmed down yet. After all, she didn't know how to deal with the series of events that happened this morning. Her mind was still in a state of confusion. Of course, she also knew that what Li Huailin said was right.
"Why don't you go back and rest for a while?" Li Huailin looked at Fu Weiwei and asked.
"I'm not that weak. It's just that my mind is a little messed up. Besides, how can I fall asleep in such a situation?" Fu Weiwei said. "Don't worry, I'll be fine after a while."
"Then go back and rest. I'm going to log into the game soon. I've been busy all morning. I have to prepare for the trial mission in the afternoon," Li Huailin said.
"Eh? Aren't we going to look at the code? " Fu Weiwei asked immediately. The two of them were still looking at the code just now, but they paused because of the earthquake prediction. Now that the matter was over, of course, they should continue to look at the remaining code. There was still a lot of code that they had not looked at.
"Let's not look at it for now. I don't know how long it'll take. I'll look at it while I prepare. If there's any major event, I'll let you know," Li Huailin said.
"This … okay." Fu Weiwei nodded. Indeed, most of the things in the code were historical events that had already happened. Even if they knew about it, it would be as useless as checking Qiandu Encyclopedia. If something major was about to happen, Li Huailin would definitely contact her.
Fu Weiwei, who was a little confused, left. Of course, Li Huailin went through the notes as planned. Then, he prepared the potions and other things to be used in the afternoon. Soon, it was the afternoon. Before the mission started, a long-distance call came. Li Huailin took a look. It turned out that the Summoning Jade Emperor had contacted him.
