Chapter 0048 Death Doom
The strong wind blew the cold raindrops into the pavilion, the reservoir surged, the waves hit the dam, and rolled up layers of foam.
The five young faces were pale and gray, unaware that the doom of death had already come upon them. They huddled together in the wind and rain, watching my "funny" outfit.
He was wearing a diving suit and a safety rope on his upper body, with the other end of the rope tied to the railing of the iron bridge.
I was worried that the weathered stone railings were not strong enough, so I tied a safety rope to the bridge so that even if I accidentally fell into the water, I could still grab the rope and climb out.
"Hey, buddy, you have all the equipment, why do you come here to swim alone? Haven't you heard of the rumors about this reservoir?" the short-haired guy said jokingly.
"I've heard of it, so I've made all the safety preparations. Why did you come here to fish?" I frowned, wondering whether I should remind these five people.
"This place is quiet enough, there are few people coming here, and the fish are more willing to catch fish." The short-haired man said perfunctorily, but his eyes glanced at the curly-haired woman beside him with ill intention.
The woman was wearing a short-sleeved shirt that didn't cover her waist, denim shorts, flesh-colored stockings, and a pair of high-heeled sandals. Unfortunately, her careful outfit was ruined by the heavy rain.
The sun hat was full of water, the sunglasses were hanging on his chest, the clothes were wet and stuck to his body, and his fair skin was faintly visible. Seeing the look in the short-haired guy's eyes, she glared at him in reproach.
The other woman has straight black hair and is wearing a floral shirt, holding hands closely with the man. They must be a couple.
Finally, there was a lone man. He was short, wore a pair of thick black-framed glasses, looked very honest, and had the least presence among the five.
"I don't know when this damn rain will stop." The curly-haired girl hugged her shoulders with her hands. She was shivering in her light clothing. "The good weather changed so suddenly. If I had known, I wouldn't have come with you guys for the picnic."
"It's okay, you won't be cold if you come into your brother's arms." The boy with the flat head laughed, opened his arms and hugged the curly-haired girl in his arms.
"Go away, you're just trying to take advantage of me." The curly-haired girl punched the guy with the flat head and broke free from his arms.
"Hey, sister, I tell you to stop being so picky. If you miss this opportunity, you'll miss it forever." The man in the flowery shirt, hugging the straight-haired girl, naturally spoke for his brother.
"There are only three men here. I'm already taken, so don't count on me. Besides Haozi, there's only Yan Jing left. He's not even as tall as you. You can't rely on him, right? Haha!"
The guy in the flowered shirt and the guy with the crew cut laughed unrestrainedly, while the girl with straight hair was much more reserved, snuggling in her boyfriend's arms and covering her mouth.
The short man with glasses lowered his head and silently wrung the rain out of the corners of his clothes, as if he had gotten used to it.
"Go away, who said there are only three men here? Isn't that handsome guy a man?"
The curly-haired girl smoothed her wet hair, posed in a posture she thought was charming, walked to my side, and stretched out a hand to put it on my shoulder in a familiar manner.
"I think it's better to stay with this handsome guy."
Her hands were very cold, colder than rain, and almost as cold as a dead person.
"It's raining so hard, it's not safe here. There's a risk of falling into the water. You'd better leave quickly." I stepped aside, avoiding the woman's hand, and advised them.
"It's your turn to worry whether we leave or not?" The crew-haired guy was obviously dissatisfied with me and waved to the curly-haired girl, "Sister, come here quickly. Haven't you heard that you shouldn't talk to strangers?"
My departure made the curly-haired girl unhappy. She snorted and turned back to her companions. However, she still avoided the embrace of the short-haired guy and stood with the straight-haired girl.
The two women were whispering to each other, and no one knew what they were talking about. Sometimes they laughed, and sometimes they complained about the men.
The guy with the flat head shamelessly squeezed next to the girl with curly hair and pushed the guy with glasses to the edge of the pavilion, with half of his shoulders exposed to the rain.
The man with glasses was stunned for a moment, with mist covering the thick lenses. No one knew what he was thinking. He did not blame the man with the flat head, but just leaned closer to the side.
Six people were crowded in the small pavilion.
Although the five people formed a small group, they were not united.
I have no intention of joining their dispute, I just want to give them a kind reminder. It is their business whether they listen or not.
At this time, the heavy rain was almost pouring, as if there was a big hole in the sky and water was leaking down desperately.
The air became extremely humid, and the breath was filled with the smell of water vapor.
Looking around, it was all white. The entire valley had turned into a world of water.
The strong wind blew the rain into the pavilion with hollow walls on all sides. Hiding inside was not much better than standing in the rain.
The five people no longer had the heart to talk, and huddled together, their eyes barely covered by the wind and rain.
Fortunately, I put on my diving suit in advance. Although it was a little inconvenient to move, at least I avoided getting my clothes wet.
The safety rope kept swinging in the strong wind, and the water surface of the reservoir seemed to be boiling, rolling violently. In the blink of an eye, it seemed that something popped out.
The wind and rain were so strong that it was difficult to see clearly.
I held the safety rope tightly in my hands and stared at the water surface . I was carrying a waterproof backpack with important things in it, ready to deal with any accidents at any time.
"Huang Hao, can you keep your claws clean? Who do you think I am to let you take advantage of me?"
"Bah! Everyone knows what kind of person you are. I don't know how many times you've been slept with. Why are you pretending to be innocent here?"
A quarrel suddenly broke out among the group of five people, it was the curly-haired girl and the crew-head guy.
"Xiaomei, Huang Hao definitely didn't do it on purpose. We were so close, he might have bumped into her accidentally." The girl with straight hair wanted to calm down the quarrel, so she pulled the girl with curly hair to persuade her.
"Accidentally? Can you accidentally put your whole hand into clothes?" The curly-haired girl sneered and pushed the guy with the flat head.
The ground was covered with rainwater, and the guy with the flat head slipped and almost fell into the rolling waves.
"Fuck! I'm giving you face today, but you dare to push me!" His face suddenly turned darker, and he raised his hand and slapped the curly-haired girl.
"Huang Hao, I'm going to fight you!" The curly-haired girl couldn't stand the insult, and her sharp nails scratched a bloody mark on the face of the guy with the flat head.
The two men wrestled with each other in the small pavilion, and it was obvious that the guy with the flat head had the upper hand and took considerable advantage.
Seeing that the curly-haired girl's already scant clothes were about to be torn off by the short-haired guy, the straight-haired girl wanted to stop the fight but was stopped by the man in the flowered shirt who looked like he was watching a show.
Finally, the shortest man with glasses stood up.
"Brother Hao, Sister Xiaomei, stop fighting..."
"Get out! Do you have the right to speak here?" The guy with the flat head didn't take him seriously at all and yelled unscrupulously.
The man with glasses shrank back, pointed at the rolling water, and said tremblingly.
"No, no, look, there seems to be a head emerging from the water..."
