After Cai meiwen learned that the holiday was due to the typhoon, she was very happy at first. After all, she had earned a holiday for nothing. She could spend more time with little celery and finish the piled up chores.

Thinking of little celery, her heart suddenly tightened. She immediately turned on her cell phone and was surprised to see that the school teacher [email protected] parents in the class group. This message was sent more than half an hour ago. She was busy with work and ignored the message on her cell phone, because she subconsciously thought that the new semester had just started, so it was impossible for her to have any urgent matters to see her parents. Besides, if little celery really had something important, the teacher would definitely talk to her privately or call her to discuss it.

There were also a few parents in the company, and they were not in a hurry because they had other people at home to pick up their children, while Cai meiqin had no one in the city who could help her.

She [email protected] teacher and asked if little celery had left school, and she got a positive answer.

Her house was a high-rise residence. Although there was no hidden danger of flooding, there was another problem. Wanwan was afraid of power outages. Once the power outage occurred, she would have to climb more than twenty floors. What was more worrying was that if the power outage occurred in the elevator, it would be terrible. Because of the typhoon, it was impossible for people to come to the rescue quickly. She did not know how long she would be trapped in the elevator, and if the elevator …

The terrifying scenes of the elevator going out of control in movies and news kept appearing in her mind. Her heart was extremely tight, and she wanted to go home in one step.

She tried to call the landline at home, but no one picked up. According to the time, little celery should be home by now.

It started to rain outside, and the wind and thunder were mixed together. From the first drop of rain to the downpour, only a few seconds had passed.

Cai meiwen left the company in a panic. She usually used public buses to commute, but at this time, the public transport was almost completely paralyzed. She couldn’t see any public buses or hail a taxi.

Fortunately, one of her colleagues was driving to work. It was the female colleague who had helped her test little celery. Seeing that she was in a daze at the bus stop, she kindly stopped to give her a ride.

Her colleagues were also in a hurry to go home, so Yan Ming could only drive her to a place not too far from home. Even so, she was very grateful. In the car, she kept calling the landline at home, but no one picked up.

The severity of the traffic situation was beyond her imagination. Along the way, she saw countless traffic accidents of all sizes. In addition to people driving violently in a hurry to go home, the bad weather was also a big factor. The torrential rain made the windshield wipers work in vain. It was hazy outside the window, and she could only vaguely see the lights of the front and back cars. If someone walked or rode a bicycle through the traffic, they would definitely not have time to react.

The traffic situation on the road was so bad that people riding bicycles and electric vehicles could only invade the sidewalk to ensure their own safety. There were many cases of pedestrians being knocked down by bicycles and electric vehicles.

Cai meiwen’s heart was burning with anxiety. She didn’t expect the situation to be so serious. If she had known earlier, it would have been safer for her daughter to stay at school and wait for her to pick her up.

For the first time, she regretted letting her daughter go to and from school alone. No matter if her daughter was injured on the road or trapped in the elevator, she would never forgive herself.

The car moved like a snail to a fork in the road. This was the place where her colleague had told her to get off. Her colleague had kindly given her an umbrella, but she had refused. It was meaningless to use an umbrella in this weather. Once she got off the car, she would be blown away by the strong wind. She wrapped the phone in a plastic bag and put it in her bag, then rushed into the rain without hesitation.

The water on the ground had already reached up to their calves, and it was as if a hole had been poked through the sky.

She wore high heels to work. The heels were not particularly high, so she waded through the water with uneven steps. After taking a few steps, she realized that her high heels had greatly limited her speed. She was washed down by the water, and her heels were stuck in something from time to time. So she decisively broke the heels and changed them into flat shoes.

Unfortunately, her high heels were not sports shoes and had no ties. As she walked, one of her shoes was washed off and she could not find it. After a while, the other shoe was also washed away.

She gritted her teeth and walked forward barefooted.

At this time, she could already see the outline of her residential area, but what she was afraid of happened. The area was dark, so it wasn’t strange that there was a power outage. She already had a hunch because almost all the residential areas along the way had a power outage.

The sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Little celery didn’t have any lighting tools, cell phones, or flashlights. Did she have to climb up more than 20 floors in the dark corridor alone? What was even more terrifying was the sudden power outage while taking the elevator.

She found a place where she could take shelter from the rain, took out her phone and tried to call the property management, hoping that they could help her check if anyone was trapped in the elevator of her building.

The neighborhood didn’t seem far away, but it would take a long time to reach it on foot in such bad weather. If the property management could help, it would save a lot of time, which was also a calming pill for her.

This damn property management was extremely diligent when it came to collecting fees. Every time the owners needed to find them, they never found them.

Today was no exception. The property manager’s phone rang many times, but no one picked up.

She was angry and desperate, and her chest was so tight that it was about to explode. She almost threw her phone on the ground and smashed it.

She really wanted to cry out loud. Ever since she had raised her daughter alone, she had never been so lonely and helpless. It was as if the whole world had abandoned her and her daughter.

However, this was not the time to cry. Even if he wanted to cry, he would wait until he found his daughter.

She kept praying to all the gods and Buddhas she knew in her heart. This was a desperate situation.

What was she going to do even if she returned to her neighborhood? First, they climbed the stairs from the first floor to the floor where they lived. If little celery wasn’t in the stairwell or at home, then either she hadn’t returned to the community yet, or she was trapped in the elevator. Yingluo preferred the former, because if she was trapped in the elevator, how could she be sure which floor or between which floors the elevator was trapped in now that the power had been cut off?

There was no relevant knowledge in her general knowledge.

If she couldn’t find little celery in the staircases, in the house, or in the elevator, she would have to follow the route that little celery often took to school, from home to school, and she would not give up until she found little celery.

She gritted her teeth and was about to rush into the rain again when her phone rang. She looked at it and saw that it was an unknown number.

For her, every minute and every second was precious. It was related to little celery’s safety. If she had called the wrong number …

After hesitating for a while, she still answered the phone, because this was a local cell phone number. She hoped that someone had told her about little celery, but at the same time, she was worried that … It was bad news.
