Chapter 45
"Because of the continuous heavy rainfall in the city for many days, many citizens and friends raised their concerns about whether the city will be submerged. For this reason, we specially invited Dr. Wang, a sewer construction designer, to answer us. Doubt." In the TV program on the subway, the sweet-looking anchor handed the microphone to a middle-aged scholar in a suit and leather shoes beside him.

"Hi everyone, I'm Dr. Wang." The middle-aged scholar talked into the microphone, "In fact, everyone's concerns are not unreasonable. As a first-tier city with a population of one million, in fact, when the city was first established, my predecessors The city's sewers have been presciently designed."

As he spoke, he called up a series of images from the projection behind him.

"Look, the concrete pit of our urban peripheral drainage system is 50 meters high, 30 meters wide, and it is 50 meters deep underground. It is equipped with a giant pressure regulating tank, which is enough to hold 50 million cubic meters water, coupled with a turbine of over 100 horsepower, the maximum displacement is enough to reach more than [-] cubic meters."

"Wow, that's amazing." Immediately, an unidentified expression appeared on the host's face.

"So under normal circumstances, this kind of heavy rainfall will not affect our city at all." Dr. Wang smiled.

After carefully watching the expert's explanation on TV, Li You scratched his head.If it was just ordinary heavy rainfall, he wouldn't be too worried, but he always felt that something was wrong.

After getting off the subway, he started to walk to school.

While walking, Li You suddenly looked up and found that the rain had stopped.

"Huh?" He looked a little surprised.The people around put away their umbrellas and cheered.

High above the sky, Li Qingzhi and Lin Dahua looked at each other and nodded.

"Okay, okay, it's really a little troublesome."

"Yeah, it took a lot of our magic power. Let Lao Lei buy us a drink later."

I'm afraid people in the city would never have thought that the reason why the rain would stop was because the two magical girls cast their magic power high above the sky.

"Well, it's really hard work." At the door of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau, Captain Lei nodded and put away his mobile phone.

When he came to the classroom, Li You happened to see Lu Yao walking towards him and handed him the umbrella in his hand.

"Student Li You, thank you so much yesterday."

"It's okay." Li You took the umbrella.Lu Yao nodded slightly towards him, then turned and left.

When he looked out the window, Li You found that it was raining lightly again.

"Ah, why is it raining again?" Several students around me frowned displeasedly, "I was thinking about going shopping with my girlfriends on weekends."

"It's fine if you go with an umbrella."

"Having said that, I don't like rain."

Li You inadvertently turned his head to look, and found that Lu Yao had gone straight away, her figure was alone.

In the evening, Li Qingzhi and Lin Dahua arrived at the gate of the Witch Countermeasure Bureau after get off work, but Captain Lei had been waiting for a long time.

"I thought the rain would just dissipate, but I didn't expect it to start falling again so soon." Lin Dahua walked up the steps quickly, and when he turned his head to look at the pattering rain outside, he couldn't help frowning.

"Is there any problem in calling us this time?" Li Qingzhi asked.

"Follow me." Captain Lei frowned.

Leading the two into the office, he turned on the projector, which displayed a city map impressively, and a faint shadow silhouette appeared above the map.

"You've already mentioned to us before that the area of ​​the rain happened to cover the entire city, so there's no need to explain it to us again." Lin Dahua reminded.

"We have already determined that the rain event this time was not purely accidental, it was purely caused by the witch. And I will show you the range of this witch's enchantment. She enveloped her enchantment in the entire city, with It's going to rain here." Captain Lei's words made him suddenly startled.

"Are you sure?" Li Qingzhi frowned.

A witch who can expand the scope of the enchantment to the entire city is definitely not low in rank.

"It's absolutely true, it was detected by the magical girls in the bureau." Captain Lei replied.When he turned his head to look at the enchanted projection, his brows also showed a bit of doubt. "But there is one thing we can't understand. Since this witch has the ability to cover the entire city with her enchantment, she only uses it to rain. During the rainy days, no victims appeared."

"Some witches have the same thoughts and emotions as humans. Maybe this witch just wants rain." Lin Dahua shook his head.

The three of them had a brief exchange on this for a while.

The case of the witch this time is a bit special. Although no one was killed, her actions did indeed cause harm to the city.Traffic jams commuting to and from get off work, the flow of people in urban areas has decreased, and if the heavy rainfall continues, it may also cause danger to urban drainage.

In fact, citizens are already snapping up life jackets and kayaks online.

"If we just rely on our magic power to stop the rain, I'm afraid it's just a drop in the bucket." Li Qingzhi said, "Then why don't we try to destroy the barrier?"

"In fact, the bureau has already given a countermeasure." Captain Lei said, "Gather all the magical girls in the city at present, gather magic power to create a barrier against the witch's barrier, and solve the problem once and for all."

"Oh, it is indeed possible." Lin Dahua nodded. "When will it start?"

"I'll let you know when the time comes."

When school was over, Li You walked out of the school gate holding an umbrella.Looking at the heavier and heavier rain, he couldn't help but sighed.

"Does Li You hate rain?" A soft voice came from beside him.

Li You turned his head to look and found that it was Lu Yao who was holding an umbrella.

The two walked together.

"It's okay, I don't really hate rain, but if it rains endlessly, I always feel a little uncomfortable." Li You replied.

"It rained on the day I was born, so I fell in love with rain." Lu Yao replied softly, "When family members passed away and friends left, it was always accompanied by rain."

Li You paused, he didn't know how to answer Lu Yao's words.

Looking down at Lu Yao, he saw that Lu Yao's face was still calm, and her slender face looked a little pale.

The two continued to walk slowly. Suddenly, Li You felt that the rain was much lighter.

When he reached the intersection, he pointed forward and said.

"Then I'll take the subway home, goodbye, classmate Lu Yao."

"Goodbye, classmate Li You."

When leaving with an umbrella, Li You turned around inadvertently, and saw Lu Yao still holding an umbrella in place, watching him leave silently.

 Thank you, Mr. Yueyoumeng, for your reward.
