Chapter 527 Heavy Rain
The heavy rain continued for more than an hour and showed no signs of stopping. Instead, it seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.
There was rumbling thunder in my ears, accompanied by strong winds, heavy rain and lightning. The trees outside were blown to this side by the wind, and the rain seemed to flood the entire city.
The door to the duty room was closed. The old man looked out of the window, shook his head and said, "It's been raining for more than an hour. It hasn't stopped raining yet, and I don't know when it will rain. I don't think you can leave for a while." ¡±
Charlene lowered her head and looked at her phone. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.
Huo Yi said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, if I didn't insist on coming to the cemetery to worship, we wouldn't be trapped here by the heavy rain now."
"It's not your problem. No one can control if it rains." Charlene shook her head and said.
After waiting for another hour, the rain still continued, and it was getting dark. They didn't know how long they would be trapped here, and Charlene couldn't help but become anxious.
She turned on her phone and wanted to see if there was any way to call a car nearby at this time, but found that her phone had no signal.
She frowned and looked at Huo Yi, "Does your mobile phone have a signal?"
Huo Yi looked at it, shook his head and said, "My mobile phone has no signal either."
The old man on the side listened and couldn't help but said: "It's normal if there is no signal. Our place is relatively remote. When the weather is bad, there is often no signal. This time it is windy, rainy and thundering. It is strange to have a signal."
Looking at his expression, it seems that he has long been used to it.
How should they leave in such weather?
Charlene couldn't help but ask: "Old man, is there any way to get out of here in this situation? Or is there a bus stop nearby?"
"Even if there are, the buses must have stopped in this weather. We only have one bus here, and it runs every two hours. It stops frequently. The bus station is far away, about one kilometer away. I think today is It can¡¯t be opened." The old man sighed.
"Then how did you get here?" Charlene asked doubtfully.
The old man said: "I live in a village not far away and am a nearby villager."
"Then, when will you get off work?" Charlene asked again.
It¡¯s raining so hard now that they have no place to take shelter. If he gets off work, where should they go?
The old man looked down at his watch and narrowed his eyes, "It's almost time. I get off work at six o'clock, there's still half an hour left."
Half an hour.
Xia Lin looked outside worriedly. There was still strong wind and heavy rain, with no sign of stopping. The thunder and lightning made people feel panicked inexplicably.
The old man said: "I think you probably won't be able to go back to the city today. How about this? If you don't mind, come home with me first. I'll take you in for the night. You can leave after the rain stops."
Charlene hesitated for a moment, "Would this be too much trouble for you?"
The old man waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "It's okay. My wife and I are the only ones at home. The children are all working outside, so we can accommodate you here."
Charlene was very grateful and couldn't help but ask: "What is your name?"
The old man said: "You can just call me Uncle Zhao. Then what do you call me?"
"My name is Xia Lin, and this is my colleague Huo Yi." Xia Lin introduced.
As soon as six o'clock arrived, the old man was ready to get off work.
It was still raining heavily. They didn¡¯t have an umbrella, and with such a heavy rain, they would definitely get wet even if they had an umbrella.
The old man took out two raincoats from a box and handed one to Charlene, "Here, you are a girl, put on the raincoat to avoid getting sick and catching a cold in the rain."
After saying that, he glanced at Huo Yi with a smile, "Young man, you are strong and strong, so it shouldn't matter if you get wet in the rain, right?"
Huo Yi quickly said: "It's okay."
"Well." The old man was very satisfied with his self-awareness, closed the door of the duty room, and stood under the eaves with them, "Go faster, you will follow me later, don't lose me. "
"Okay." Xia Lin and Huo Yi nodded.
The old man put on the hat of his raincoat and rushed into the rain. Xia Lin and Huo Yi hurriedly followed.
The wind was blowing loudly, and the raindrops pattered on the clothes, accompanied by slight pain. It can be seen that the rain was heavy.?How big.
Charlene felt like she was shaken by the wind, and there was a roar of thunder in her ears, as if it was exploding in her ears, and even the top of her heart was trembling.
Seeing this, Huo Yi hurriedly came over and helped her, "Mr. Xia, are you okay? Hold my hand."
Without waiting for Charlene to answer, he held Charlene's hand tightly and protected her as she moved forward.
Xia Lin was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, but thinking that these were extraordinary times, she endured it.
It was so big that even if she was wearing a raincoat, Charlene should be mostly wet.
Uncle Zhao walked in front, walking as fast as flying. It was obvious that his body was very strong, and it was not affected at all by this kind of weather.
They walked for about fifteen minutes before entering a village through a small road.
These fifteen minutes felt like fifteen kilometers.
The houses in the village are scattered, with lights on on a stormy night, they look sparse and scattered.
Finally, when he came to the door of a building, Uncle Zhao knocked on the door and shouted: "Old lady, it's me, open the door quickly!"
There was a response from inside, and then the door was opened, and an old woman with half a century of hair poked her head out. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Xia Lin and Huo Yi, but she didn't say anything and just greeted them to come in.
Charlene took off her raincoat. She was almost soaked and shivering from the cold.
The old woman took out a set of clean clothes from her closet and gave them to Charlene, "Girl, go take a bath quickly and put on clean clothes to avoid catching a cold."
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Charlene quickly thanked her and entered the bathroom with her clothes.
After washing dishes and taking a hot bath, I saw Uncle Zhao and the old lady sitting on the sofa discussing the rainstorm.
"I just saw the news, and it said that the heavy rain may last for two or three days. I have never encountered such heavy rain before. It is really rare." The old woman said worriedly.
Uncle Zhao said indifferently: "No matter how heavy the rain is, it will eventually pass."
"It's raining so hard and I don't know when it will stop. Do you still have to go to work tomorrow?" The old woman was a little dissatisfied. It was too dangerous to go out in such heavy rain.
"Will this rain last for a long time?" Charlene couldn't help but ask.
I originally planned to fly back tomorrow, but now I am stuck here due to a heavy rainstorm.
The old woman nodded and said: "That's what it said on TV, but I don't know how long it will actually last." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
