Chapter 466: The dead are dead, the living choose hope

"Silence for all!" Before a ruin, everyone headed by the deputy mayor, Chen Xin and the rescue team leader bowed their heads and mourned for the victims under the ruins.
After the results of the previous polls came out, the plan to flatten the ruins and rebuild the home was finally passed.
Nevertheless, when deciding on the construction plan, the plan was chosen to minimize damage to the remains under the ruins.
And before the construction started, the city government also specially arranged this silence, hoping that the deceased under the ruins could rest in peace.
The weather under the apocalypse is not good, and the wind today is also very strong. Snowflakes were blown by the violent wind, slapped and crackled on the body, and even blew people a little unstable to stand.
But no one moved or avoided, everyone was bowing their heads and praying sincerely for the victims under the ruins.
Not only here, all the survivors are doing the same thing in the resettlement site.
Everyone stopped their work, stood silently and solemnly, bowed their heads, and mourned for the dead.
Even the wounded who can't stand up are also praying for those unfortunate people.
On the Chenlong in the sky, the captain personally rang the whistle and made a long sound, echoing among the extremely quiet ruins, seeming to comfort the soul of the dead.
Strangely enough, after the silence began, the violent wind stopped unexpectedly.
It's as if God doesn't want this noisy wind to disturb the peace of the dead and destroy the solemnity of silence.
The silence was not long, but the short three minutes felt very long. Many people shed tears because of the thought of their loved ones.
Chen Xin was also bowing his head at this time, mourning for the victims.
Just praying for the dead, wishing them rest in peace, Chen Xin is also thinking about how to avoid such a tragedy from happening again.
The disaster itself is inevitable. In addition to taking preventive measures and warning in advance, there is not much that people can do.
Perhaps relying on system upgrades, based on some things in science fiction, can finally upgrade to an instrument that can control the movement of the earth's crust and eliminate the disaster to the invisible, but this is too far away.
For Chen Xin now, a more practical approach is to improve the existing construction technology so that the rebuilt shelters and cities can withstand the invasion of disasters.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin couldn't help but remember that the best thing for earthquake prevention is the island country in the east. After all, it is a country that has more than 1,000 earthquakes a year, three times a day on average, even more than three meals a day. To be frequent.
Although most of the more than 1,000 earthquakes are minor earthquakes that are insensible to the human body, it must be said that the island country has indeed accumulated a wealth of experience in this regard.
Maybe you can learn from relevant architectural experience and technology?
Just as Chen Xin thought about this, the silence was over.
Although the mood was still heavy, the construction started as planned.
Seeing that the construction machinery began to flatten the ruins where the bodies of the victims were still buried, some people couldn't help crying.
With this cry, it seems that the pressure and pain that everyone has endured during this period of time, as well as the sadness of losing their loved ones, have been released.
However, while releasing the pain, this bitter cry also seems to be the first cry of a newborn, indicating that the city will usher in a new life.

Chen Xin did not stay on the construction site to watch the construction, but returned to the resettlement site.
Although he has not been on the front line of disaster relief during this period of time, he has not even participated in the disaster relief under the hindrance of other people, but because of his identity, he has a more intuitive and true feeling about the disaster.
For ordinary people, all they can feel is the passing away of their relatives and the suffering they have suffered.
The death of 300,000 people in a city is a very intuitive number. For survivors, their most intuitive feeling is that their relatives died.
This is enough to occupy all of their minds, and they can no longer think about what kind of damage this disaster has brought besides the death of their relatives and the destruction of their homes.
However, for Chen Xin, the death of 300,000 people is just the number of victims in this city.
His identity allows him to know from the country what terrible disaster the earthquake that has affected the entire three provinces of the southwest has caused.
Chen Xin clearly remembers that the great earthquake that occurred in Yanguo in his college days caused the displacement of nearly 20 million people, nearly 70,000 deaths, more than 17,000 people missing, and ten counties and cities in the worst-hit area. , 41 counties and cities in the hardest-hit area, and 186 counties and cities in the general disaster area, is the most devastating, widest, disaster loss, and disaster relief earthquake in Yan State since the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
However, this major earthquake is only stronger than that one, and the number of people who died has increased several times.
When receiving statistical data from various disaster relief teams, Chen Xin did not fall asleep all night. The shocking data made him close his eyes as if he could see the faces of countless victims, and he seemed to be able to hear him. To the wailing of pain.
If this disaster happened before the meteorite fell, it might not have caused such huge casualties.
But because after the meteorite fell, everyone lived in the refuge, and few people were outdoors. As a result, when the disaster struck, most people stayed in the refuge that was supposed to be used to escape the disaster... …
Those who survived are lucky, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, they may be lucky not to stay in the shelter when the disaster strikes, or the shelter where the luck is good did not collapse, or they escaped in time. Came out...
Regardless of the reason, they survived, and they are luckier than those who were unfortunately killed.
It's just that if this fortune is compared with the misfortune of those who died, no one can be happy.
This also made the atmosphere in the resettlement site very heavy during this period of time, and the heavy number of 300,000 victims weighed on everyone out of breath.
But now, the atmosphere in the resettlement site is not as heavy as it was a few days ago. It seems that the silence just now released the grief in everyone's hearts, giving the atmosphere of the resettlement site a sense of hope.
Feeling this change, Chen Xin felt better.
Indeed, as it was written in the letter he received, the deceased is dead, and the living of the living will continue.
Indulging in the pain of the past with sorrow does not help, only hope can start a new life.
