Nuke Miko: Chronicles of America

However, no matter whether the Flying Noodle God cares about Chen Qiuhan messing around in the name of God, all of this is just empty talk before the situation is opened.

And if you want to open up the situation as soon as possible and reduce uncontrollable risks, then the safest and most secure method is obviously to take the upper-level route secretly,

But among the six people present, five are not Americans, and the only American girl named Dolores, who is born in the country of Louisiana, has no social connections in Los Angeles, California—in other words, Who can't find a way to reach the local high society.

The black cat goddess Buster is an American cat, and she knows many pet cats in mansions, but you can't let the cats from the boss's house introduce you, right?

——Other people’s cats can’t talk!

At this moment, Serena, the black-skinned catwoman, suddenly had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and came up with an unnoticed breakthrough:

In Venice Beach in Los Angeles, the Magnolia Nursing Home where Buster, the cat god, was entrenched in troubles. Although it looks a bit old, the decoration is quite luxurious. There are many intertwined personal connections.

Of course, because of the escape of the nurses and managers, these old people have already died in the "Corona" epidemic, but didn't the black cat goddess Buster still save a ghost of Ms. Betty?Anyway, everyone can't find a way out now, why don't you call her out and ask her?

Everyone praised this one after another, and Akiyama Megumi summoned the elderly female ghost Betty and asked her if she had contacts in the upper class.

Ms. Betty, a former Hollywood starlet, thought about it and replied:

"...I have passed away in the last century. I am afraid that few of my old friends in Hollywood are still alive today. They all died in the [20] incident 911 years ago.

However, I have a granddaughter, Freya Hale, who has done well in politics, got into Harvard, and last year became an assistant to the mayor of Los Angeles.If nothing happens to her during the earthquake, maybe we can ask her for help..."

"...Freya Hale? Assistant to the mayor of Los Angeles? You mean the one in the news?"

Chen Qiuhan was stunned, and pointed to the TV that was broadcasting the news. Inside, a young female civil servant in formal attire with sharp eyes was skillfully speaking in a bureaucratic tone in front of the reporter, claiming that the government did not just ignore the people, but had already Made the greatest efforts for disaster relief and so on...

After receiving Ms. Betty's affirmation, Akiyama Megumi immediately clapped her hands, "...Very well, then I'm sure to find her!

But now there is another problem. According to the news, during the earthquake, the city hall of Los Angeles has collapsed, and Ms. Freya's house may also have collapsed. Where should we go to find her?Even if you use [Dream Jump], you must have a direction! "

"...Woo meow, this is not difficult meow, we just need to do a divination. There are also ready-made catalysts for divination!"

The fat cat goddess Buster, who wanted to make up for it, hurriedly spoke at this moment, and at the same time stretched the cat's claws into her plump cheeks, took out a small test tube, and shook it in front of everyone, "...Meow, although Betty's body is gone, I still have a tube of her blood left. Now, I only need to divination the location of her blood relatives, and I can find Betty's granddaughter, Ms. Freya..."

So far, Ms. Freya, assistant to the mayor of Los Angeles, who has been missed by her ghost grandmother, is doomed to encounter ghosts soon.

Chapter 91: Archaeological Disaster Relief

June 6, Los Angeles, the city of dead bodies on the West Coast

Ms. Freya Hale, the female assistant to the mayor of Los Angeles who didn't know that she was missed by the ghost grandmother Betty, was sitting in a helicopter sent by the Navy, overlooking the devastated city of Los Angeles from the air. To inspect the rescue situation in the disaster area of ​​Los Angeles.

——After signing the state of emergency declaration and asking the governor for help, the mayor of Los Angeles left the corpse-strewn Los Angeles and ran away again: anyway, with his previous messy reputation and polls, it is completely impossible for him to run for re-election With no hope left, life-saving is the most important thing.

However, the mayor finally learned from the last shipwreck and instead of hiding on another yacht, he moved to Catalina Island.

The island is located in the Pacific Ocean southwest of Los Angeles, only an hour's boat ride from the port of Los Angeles.

There are not only palm trees and white sandy beaches on the island, but also casinos, golf courses, botanical gardens and museums. It has always been a popular short-distance tourist attraction among Los Angeles citizens.

However, since the outbreak of the "Corona" epidemic, this beautiful and well-equipped Catalina Island has been occupied by many rich and powerful, and has cut off sailing from the American continent. Evacuation settlements for the COVID-19 virus.

Of course, as the mayor of Los Angeles, he is still qualified to occupy a place on this island.

In short, the mayor of Los Angeles is here on the island, looking at the mainland from a distance, and watching the wind and water on the shore across dozens of kilometers of ocean.

But the hard-working assistant Freya Hale had to run around to coordinate post-disaster relief in Los Angeles.

——Well, she wouldn't dare to step into the disaster area, but it's no problem to take a helicopter to watch the horses and make a show from the air.

At this moment, four days have passed since the California National Guard dispatched troops to clear the scene in Los Angeles.

The navy also dispatched marines into the disaster-stricken area of ​​Los Angeles to carry out suppression operations. In the blink of an eye, the black ghosts all over the street were scattered.

At this point, the combat mission to restore order has come to an end, and the next step is for rescuers to enter the scene to rescue the citizens buried under the ruins.

However, even sitting in a helicopter overlooking, Freya can fully feel the perfunctory and sloppy rescue work.

Looking at the report sent by the reporter on the mobile phone, Ms. Freya finally couldn't help calling the governor's office and getting mad.

"...God! Is this California's 'all in' support for Los Angeles?

It has been six days since the earthquake occurred, and the state government sent only 500 rescue workers to Los Angeles!

Thousands of living people buried in the wreckage of buildings, waiting patiently for hundreds of people to come to rescue?Are you kidding me?

Now there are more news vehicles than rescue vehicles at the scene of the earthquake in downtown Los Angeles!

Well, if there are fewer people, there will be fewer people. At least when you come to Los Angeles, you have to race against time to save lives!

But they don't!

The first thing they do when they come to Los Angeles is to build a camp for themselves, and then they sit and drink coffee, as if they are having a picnic.

The surviving Los Angeles citizens couldn't wait any longer. They found shovels and shovels and wanted to rescue their relatives who were buried under the rubble, but they were driven out by the soldiers who commanded the National Guard, saying that they had no license or permit. Laymen are not allowed to enter the arena!

But what are these professional rescuers doing?They do nothing!A woman shouted for help for ten hours in the ruins, begging the rescuers to save her, but the rescuers continued to chat and drink coffee, leaving the woman to die slowly in despair.

Fortunately, the area of ​​the disaster area is too large, and the number of rescue team members and soldiers is too small to stop them, so some lucky people were dug out by their relatives, but the escape from the disaster was also turned into a prison escape...even some family members were carrying The shovel broke into the ruins and was shot and killed by the soldiers!

It was not until the third day, that is, yesterday, that the rescue team sent by these states reluctantly started the excavation work.

But even so, they still insist on the eight-hour work system in the ruins, and they have to take a break every 45 minutes of work.

Moreover, they didn't use any heavy equipment, they just dug up the ruins with their bare hands and lined up in a long line to throw stones for fun!He insisted on making emergency rescue and disaster relief like archaeologists excavating ruins... Hey!Until now, they have not been able to rescue a living person from under the ruins! "

Freya complained to a private secretary in the governor's office on the phone, "...I called and questioned, and their captain said to me, 'It's not our job to do miracles, that's God's job'.

Listen, listen, what is this called?What kind of attitude is this? "

"... Madam Assistant Mayor, I can understand your feelings.

However, just as people without a license cannot practice medicine without a license, disaster relief work in our country is also monopolized by professionals.

It is obviously normal that non-professionals are not allowed to intervene in rescue at the disaster site.

Then, stepping on broken ground and entering collapsed buildings for search and rescue is a dangerous job in itself.

As for whether the searched people were dead or alive, it was really not up to the search and rescue personnel to decide.

And the rescue team's actions are slow... They also have to consider their own interests! "

The governor's private secretary on the other side of the phone explained to the resentful Ms. Freya in a flat tone, "...the salaries of the search and rescue task force are hourly, and it takes [-] hours , can be counted as [-] times the overtime pay.

For this reason, they usually stopped working within 40 hours of arriving at the scene, and only started to rescue people within one hour from No.[-].

Moreover, the longer the rescue work is delayed, the more hourly wages they can receive.

Under normal circumstances, they have to delay at least ten days and a half months, and work 24 hours a day, which adds up to hundreds of hours of salary.

On the contrary, if they act quickly and the rescue ends in three days, each of them will only have 72 hours of wages.

In this way, the harder they work and the faster the rescue progress, the less wages they get. Naturally, only fools would work hard in a hurry.

Then, searching and rescuing in the ruins is very dangerous, there are collapses and falling rocks at every turn, and the search and rescue personnel may not have good medical insurance.

In order not to risk their own lives, they have to be cautious, first protect their own safety at work, and then save others according to their mood when they have spare energy.

——Anyway, their salary is calculated according to the time, no matter how many people are rescued, their salary will be the same.

After such a delay, the vast majority of the victims are almost dead, just to relieve the burden on our medical system.

Since the outbreak of the [Corona] epidemic, California's medical system has already collapsed. If there is an influx of a large number of casualties from the earthquake, I can hardly imagine what it will be like... Maybe the doctors and nurses will be because of Are you on strike due to overwork? "

"...Wait, wait, if that's the case, what's the point of these rescue teams?"

Ms. Freya was a little dazed when she heard that, "...their existence and arrival is to save the people from danger?"

"...No, it is enough to let the people mistakenly think that they can be rescued by official power when the crisis comes."

The governor's private secretary said brazenly on the phone, "...to be honest, the job of the rescue team is not to save people, but to pretend to save people. The purpose is not to save many people, but how to perform the job of saving people well. In a sense, rescue should belong to the acting profession.

Judging from the current situation, they perform very professionally and are worthy of their salary... Please don't ask too much!Miss! "

"...Okay! Now I finally understand why in those Hollywood movies about doomsday, from beginning to end, the male and female protagonists fight alone in the face of disasters, desperately trying to save themselves, while official support is always late. , or even none at all.”

Ms. Freya sighed and sneered at her mobile phone, "...I used to think that artists were born rebellious and deliberately vilified the image of us civil servants, but now it seems that this is not a ugliness, it is clearly a great beautification !

If it is to be more realistic, the protagonist has to avoid the pursuit of the official rescue team, or at least thank the country for not killing him! "

"...don't think of us as ignorant, ignorant fools, ma'am. It's not that we don't know the right way to rescue."

The governor's private secretary still said in an unhurried tone, "...we are neither bloodthirsty killers nor born with hearts of stone.

I also pity those poor people who went to see God in the earthquake and are about to see God, and I am happy to offer them candles and flowers.

However, in the face of such a large-scale earthquake, if you really want to rescue all the living people buried under the ruins, instead of pretending, you should deal with the media and the public.

Then we have to mobilize the whole country and send a search and rescue team of more than 20 people into the disaster area.

Then, so many people have to divide their work, holding small manual or electric tools, working in three shifts, and in the shortest time, small by small pieces to clean up the ruins by hand and remove the buried objects—those Large-scale excavation machinery and equipment are of no use at all on this occasion.

But the question is, how can California possibly mobilize such huge human and material resources?

And don't count on a White House bailout -- don't forget, this is an election year!

Can you count on that golden-haired clown of the Republican Party to mobilize the power of the whole country at this time to save a Democratic city in a blue state?

I'm afraid he can't wait for a meteorite to fall from the sky, and instantly wipe out the Hollywood that Tiantian is desperately trying to discredit him in the public opinion!

What's more, even if the golden-haired clown in the Oval Office of the White House is a saint who repays evil with virtue and is willing to do everything to save Los Angeles, the governor and the Democratic congressmen on Capitol Hill will try to block and hinder it.

Because any earth-shattering disaster is the easiest opportunity for people to change their minds!

If that golden-haired clown really used the power of the whole country to successfully save the people of Los Angeles, reverse public opinion, make California popular in the general election, and make this clown re-elected, then what should we do?

The Democratic Party must not accept such a result, so they can only sacrifice the people of Los Angeles.

Let’s be honest, the governor didn’t think about saving people from the very beginning, he was just doing a show for the media and the public…”

"...In other words, those people buried in the ruins of downtown Los Angeles are already destined to be abandoned?"

Freya in the helicopter sighed weakly, "...Is there really no other way?"

"...If it is those backward countries in Africa, they may still be able to ask for help from the United Nations at this time. But we are the United States of America..."

The governor's private secretary said, "...in this free country, all is free.

Since people are free when they buy or rent a house, and they are free when they live in the house, they are also free to be buried in the earthquake, and it can be said that they died well...

What's more, we didn't make any effort.

——After the coordination of the governor's office, the rescue captain on the scene in Los Angeles has been persuaded to no longer prevent the families of the victims from rescuing people by themselves, and to allow non-governmental organizations from all over the country to enter the disaster area to provide assistance.

According to the news received by the governor's office, many people should have arrived at the ruins of the University of Southern California.

Ma'am, since you are now in the sky above the disaster area, maybe you can fly over to have a look, maybe these non-governmental organizations that came spontaneously will be more active than the rescue team..."

After hearing this, Freya hung up her cell phone and ordered the pilot to go to USC. At the same time, she raised her binoculars and looked down. She soon found the ruins of USC and the civil groups who rushed to Los Angeles from surrounding areas.

——I saw hundreds of people gathered in the dark near a collapsed building, some held candles, some held flowers and crosses, a nun led the crowd to pray, and some people beat the gong, and behind them pulled out On the banner, the word "Hope" was written in huge letters.

On the playground farther away, someone even set up a stage, stood on it, played guitar and sang loudly, as if holding a mourning concert.

The most outrageous thing is that among the ruins of the ruins, there are vendors pushing carts selling flowers and candles!

In short, these civil society groups do everything, but no one is doing anything that can really save the victims from the ruins...

Alas, what is hypocritical moral self-satisfaction?That's it!

They don't care if they can save people, they only care if they are touched by their actions!

With these insects, how could Los Angeles be saved?

Thinking of this, Ms. Freya couldn't help but lose all hope and lose interest. She put away the binoculars and ordered the pilot to return to Malibu.

Then she fished out a pitcher of refreshing espresso and poured it down her throat, frowning.

——Although she hadn't slept well for more than 48 hours, Freya still had to pull herself together and work continuously.

After returning, she had to give candy to children who lost their parents and deal with reporters' questions!

——What Freya didn't know was that because she hadn't slept all the time, some extraordinary people couldn't enter her dreams for a long time...
