Chapter 292 The day after tomorrow
Chapter 292 The day after tomorrow
Zhao Dongchuan brought Lao Wang and the other two to a Chinese restaurant and had a modified Chinese meal.
Zhao Dongchuan looked at the dish called "General Tso's Chicken" on the plate... and fell into deep thought.
The chicken is fried until golden and crispy, and then coated with a sweet and sour sauce. It tastes... weird!
Lao Wang, Xiao Qiang and Wang Cai enjoyed the meal very much and said it tasted quite good.
It is said that Americans' taste buds cannot taste salty or savory flavors. Is this true?
Zhao Dongchuan thought secretly...
Putting aside these nonsensical thoughts, he quickly finished the food in front of him.
"Let's go, let's walk around..."
"Okay, boss!"
"..."
Seeing that Zhao Dongchuan had finished his meal, the three of them stopped what they were doing, wiped their mouths, and stopped eating.
Old Wang Jason went to pay the bill happily.
"It's nice to have a little brother..."
Zhao Dongchuan nodded with satisfaction and was very satisfied with Old Wang Jason's performance.
Then the group started walking around New York City.
You can't go shopping because the main roads are blocked by traffic.
Although it was daytime, the sun only came out a little in the early morning, but now it is covered by dark clouds.
It was still stormy at this time.
Zhao Dongchuan held an umbrella, looked at the sky with lightning and thunder, and fell into memories.
I seem to have seen this scene somewhere, but I just can't remember where. The inspiration in my mind seems to be about to be grasped, but there is just a layer of membrane between us.
"The enhanced Hurricane Nonali is truly unimaginably powerful..."
“These waves are bigger than any I’ve ever seen before… beyond my imagination!”
A male reporter is reporting the news from Los Angeles on TV. He is standing on a beach and broadcasting live.
At the same time, the picture changed, and the extremely tall waves appeared on the TV... The sea water was surging, constantly surging forward.
Zhao Dongchuan watched this scene on a large screen...
"Dear viewers, I am very sorry. Due to the sudden change in weather, the live broadcast will be closed. Thank you all!"
The male reporter suddenly seemed to have discovered something serious and hurriedly interrupted the live broadcast.
From the last picture, it can be seen that hailstones the size of golf balls suddenly fell from the sky, constantly hitting the beach and tourists.
Many surfing enthusiasts have begun to avoid the hail. People who are fleeing everywhere fall down from time to time, and cries of pain can be heard continuously. The scene is in chaos.
"This hailstone... is too big..."
Zhao Dongchuan looked at the scene in front of him and complained with some surprise.
"Los Angeles hurricane... huge waves... New York... quiz contest... Sam... Laura... huge hailstones..."
He kept searching the information he heard and saw in his mind, and finally the barrier of knowledge was broken!
"Shit... I know... I know which world this is... This is 'The Day After Tomorrow'!"
Zhao Dongchuan finally found the answer from the depths of his memory.
It was a disaster movie he saw in his youth. The story tells that due to global warming, the polar glaciers are melting. With the continuous influx of fresh water, the salt ratio in the polar underground seawater is destroyed, thereby interfering with the North Atlantic Warm Current until the warm current slowly stops.
Once the warm current stopped, the earth's climate changed dramatically, and the temperature dropped sharply, dropping by dozens of degrees at once.
Extremely strong hurricanes, fist-sized hail, and huge waves are happening all over the world.
What's even more terrifying is that the huge tornado formed by the sudden change in weather brought the extremely cold air from the upper atmosphere to the ground through the eye of the storm, instantly lowering the temperature at the eye of the storm to minus 100 degrees Celsius.
When the eye of the storm passed through New York, the entire city was frozen into an ice sculpture in a very short time, presenting a doomsday scene.
In fact, theoretically speaking, this result cannot be achieved all at once, but requires a long process. However, in the world of "The Day After Tomorrow", this process has been dramatically accelerated. Of course, this situation is not impossible to happen, but the probability is very low.
But who can say for sure?
Thinking of this, Zhao Dongchuan was a little dazed.
First of all, he must be fine. As long as the shuttle channel established by the [Small Universe Shuttle] is still there, he can escape directly if he encounters danger.
Even if the earth is hit by a meteorite, as long as he doesn't crash into it stupidly, he will be fine...
Zhao Dongchuan slowly relaxed his mind and began to think about his next move.
Although he himself is fine, but the others...
He looked at the crowd around him...
Well, it has nothing to do with him...
Here is their "savior".
Sam's father, Professor Hall, should have communicated with Terry Ribery by now and learned the cause of climate change.
I guess the scientists are already building the algorithms and will meet with the Vice President shortly.
He doesn't care about this place, but there is one place he can't ignore...that is the great eastern country in this world.
Although he is a Chinese from another world and not a native Chinese here, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang, so it is necessary for him to give early warning.
Zhao Dongchuan was not sure whether there was anyone capable in China who had discovered this abnormal situation and made specific emergency arrangements.
He can only do what he can.
"Never mind... do your best and leave the rest to fate!"
Zhao Dongchuan turned around and said to Lao Wang: "Do you know where the Chinese embassy is?"
"embassy?"
The three of them were a little confused. They were not Chinese and did not need to come into contact with these things on a normal basis.
"Forget it, it's useless to ask you..."
Zhao Dongchuan ignored them and started patrolling the street.
Soon he found his target, a Chinese restaurant.
As he walked towards the Chinese restaurant, he took out the passport Anna had prepared for him and began to check it.
The contact number of the Chinese Embassy in the United States is: XX-X-XXXXX!
"Dial this number to call the embassy..."
Zhao Dongchuan instructed Lao Wang.
At the same time they have entered Chinese restaurants.
He went straight into the kitchen.
All those who wanted to stop them were stopped by Wangcai and Xiaoqiang.
Seeing the strong black brother, everyone present was a little scared and didn't dare to resist...
"Are you Chinese?"
Zhao Dongchuan asked the only Asian in the kitchen.
And he was looking at him in surprise, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
He hesitated slightly and nodded slowly.
"I am also Chinese. I want to ask you a favor. Could you please take me to the Chinese Consulate in New York?"
"I have an urgent matter and need to contact the authorities back home, but I just arrived here and am not familiar with the place. Traffic is very congested right now, so I need someone to lead the way for me... Do you know the way?"
At first, the man was a little uneasy, but as Zhao Dongchuan spoke, the Chinese chef gradually became serious.
He felt a very serious attitude from Zhao Dongchuan.
"What happened?"
He asked in a serious tone in Chinese.
"This matter is confidential for the time being, I cannot talk about it here... I can only say that this matter concerns the safety of the nation, it is a matter of life and death!"
"are you serious?"
Even though he had been constantly making various possible guesses in his mind, he did not expect Zhao Dongchuan to say such a thing.
"No, buddy, you're here filming a TV show with me..."
He looked at Zhao Dongchuan with a smile, a look of disdain on his face.
……
He looked at Zhao Dongchuan's still solemn expression and began to feel uncertain.
"Are you serious?"
"Do you know the way? If not, I need to think of another way..."
As he was talking, Lao Wang came over and said to Zhao Dongchuan, "Boss, the embassy's phone line is busy and I can't get through..."
"Ugh……"
Zhao Dongchuan shook his head and was about to turn around and leave...
"I'll take you there... Let's go!"
The Chinese chef took off his chef's coat and hat.
"If you are crazy, I won't forgive you... Damn it... You have to at least compensate me for one day, no, at least three days' salary..."
He cursed and walked forward quickly.
"Hurry up, hero..."
"This is a matter of national security, a matter of life and death! You said it!!!"
Zhao Dongchuan smiled slightly, stopped talking nonsense, and followed him forward.
"Dudududu!"
There came the sound of a motorcycle starting!
"Get in the car quickly..."
