If you were on a plane or something and heard this kind of broadcast, you would probably be shaking with fear right now.

But Sunika felt something was wrong. She lifted her foot and looked at it. She was immediately surprised: "Where did all the water come from!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone paid attention to their feet.

Several people near the door raised their feet, and there was already a layer of puddles on the soles of their shoes.

Two minutes later, when the seeping water turned into a turbid stream that surged in through the cracks in the door, everyone knew something was wrong.

Someone on the other side of the carriage was shouting something, apparently asking everyone to follow him over there, where there was an escape route.

Everyone rushed over and got off the train through the front door of car No. 1, and sure enough, they saw the sign for the escape passage.

Sunika was mixed in the crowd and also breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't follow the crowd for a while and then stopped.

She stood on tiptoe to look forward, and was immediately horrified by the scene in the escape passage - this was not an escape passage! This was clearly a river!

The sound of water rushing in the narrow escape passage was like a flood, and the turbid yellow water rolled up white waves.

The conductor leading the way in front gritted his teeth and tried to lean over to take a look, but he was nearly swept away by the rapids as he leaned over.

Several passengers nearby hurriedly pulled him back. The conductor didn't care about his wet and embarrassed appearance. "Go back! Go back quickly! Get back on the train!"

He already understood the crux of the problem - the ground had probably been directly submerged by the flood, and the water would flow into any cracks.

The only relatively safe area now is probably the tracks that are well connected and have a complete drainage system.

But the question is, how long can it last in orbit?

The train could not move, and there was no way to go in or out of the tunnel. Sunika followed the crowd back to the carriage, and everyone finally felt the panic.

"Don't be afraid! Don't worry! Help will come soon!"

"The seats are reserved for the elderly, women and children! Stand up! Don't stand in the water! Stand up!"

"Don't get excited—calm down—keep calm! Don't waste your energy!"

Sunika was pushed by several men through the crowd to a carriage with relatively less water and stood on a seat.

So she watched anxiously as the water rose from everyone's feet to their ankles, then to their calves, and finally to their knees...

In just over ten minutes, all the seats were flooded, and the water that seeped in even reached everyone's waist.

The water temperature in late summer and early autumn is naturally not cool at all. At around seven in the morning, Sunika, who had not eaten breakfast, was chilled by the soak.

She shivered and took the cell phone from her other hand, wanting to make a call.

Although she had tried her best to raise the phone to avoid getting it wet, the phone seemed to be wet and the touch screen was a little less sensitive.

She found the emergency number with great difficulty and wanted to call for help again, just like many other people had called before, but found that there was no signal either.

"Mother……"

"Don't cry, don't be afraid, baby, don't be afraid, mommy is here."

The child's crying seemed to ignite some intense yet depressing emotions all of a sudden, and the already low-pressure atmosphere in the carriage went from solemn to collapsing.

Sunika felt like she had been soaking in the water for a whole day, but when she looked at the time, only half an hour had passed.

She opened the memo on her phone and wanted to write something, but her shaking hands made it impossible for her to type, so she turned on the recorder.

“Mom… I’m Nika. I’m… I’m at this subway station… I don’t know if I can get out alive today… I… wuwuwu…”

Sunika, who wanted to leave a message, trembled and cried. The power of the train had been turned off, leaving only the blue and white emergency lights flashing slowly.

The water was almost up to her shoulders, and the roof of the train felt like a cramped ceiling. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she even felt a little short of oxygen.

There was a turbulent flow of water outside the car window glass. The accumulated water isolated by the car was a little slower, but it was still rising slowly. Others had already started to hold on to the upper handrails of the car, and their bodies were lying sideways as if they wanted to float up.

“Crunch—”

Under the surging water, the train began to shift and deviate from the track.

The distorted metal sound and sudden displacement made everyone, who were already emotional, even more panicked.

A young lady next to Sunika actually got through on the phone, and it seemed like her mother's voice came from the other end of the line.

"Mom, I'm at the subway station. The water has flooded all the cars. I might...maybe I can't get out..."

The young lady pushed her glasses up with difficulty and said, "Don't tell Dad. I'll think of a solution."

The call was disconnected before the conversation was finished. The young lady looked at the black screen of her phone and didn't force anything anymore.

As if he sensed Sunika's gaze, he just turned around and smiled: "It feels - huh - it feels like a horror movie... right..."

"We can get out, it's okay." Sunika gritted her teeth: "Didn't your mother hear what we said? She must be thinking of a solution too!"

"It's too late. There's too much water. Do you feel... a little difficult to breathe?"

The young lady looked at the top of the car and said, "This is due to lack of oxygen. I am a medical student. Also, even if rescue came, the water outside is too fast and the car door cannot be opened."

It was opened and we couldn't get out. Without a large rescue force and nothing to hold on to, how could we get out of the tunnel against the current?

Of course rescue forces will come, and the fire truck may be on the way now, but just imagine what the ground will look like, it will probably be a swamp.

Sunika felt the water gradually reaching her chin, and she stared at the surging waves outside the subway door with her eyes wide open in a daze.

The glass of the car door reflected the emergency lights inside and her face, and the lights outside the door could be vaguely seen.

……lamp?

She focused her pupils and looked at the little bit of light rushing along with the water, wondering if it was an illusion.

What is that...what is that?

Just as she was thinking, a figure with a headlamp and ropes tied around the body emerged from the muddy water like a mermaid.

The other party crashed into the train with a "bang", and Sunika, who was separated by a layer of glass in the train door, was so scared that she almost choked to death on her two spitted out water.

"Miss-Miss?!!!"

Sonica looked at the figure with her glasses wide open, while the other person was already leaning on the car door, trying to open it.

"Someone is coming! Someone is coming to save us!!"

Sunika shouted, and everyone in the car looked over.

"Car door! The car door won't open! What should I do?!"

"Go to the front of the car! Just take the glass from the front of the car... huh?"

A hand smashed the door glass directly through the rushing water. The fragments of tempered glass were blown out of the car and hit the body of the train.

Then the other party untied the rope and tied it to one side. After getting in, he pried both sides of the car door with his hands and forcibly opened the entire door.

Two minutes later, Alia emerged from the water and wiped her face: "Is everyone okay?"

Sunika suspected that she was hallucinating, a revolving lantern or something: "Miss...Miss..."

"Oh, it's you?" Ailia then saw clearly that her little cutie was there, so she handed her a small collar-like thing.

"Put it around your neck! Make sure it's tied up! Pull the rope on the left. This is an emergency life-saving collar. The rescue team has arrived. Wait for me to tie the rope buckle, and then you can be pulled out!"

"Miss - I'm not dreaming, am I?!"

"Of course not. There are two trains stuck this time. Don't worry, I will get everyone out."

The subways across the country have a complete drainage system, so even heavy rain will not affect the operation of the subway. This time the rain was too heavy and exceeded the limit, so this situation occurred. Not to mention the drainage system, even a few Dragon Kings would vomit - the entire Tianhai was about to be washed into pieces by the downpour.

It's only been two hours and the entire city's drainage system has been overwhelmed, and the rain is still falling with no end in sight.

Alia put the rope buckle around Sunika's waist: "Make sure your head is above the water! Don't worry or be afraid! We will be pulled out in ten minutes along the tunnel!"

Sunika was speechless, just nodded continuously, and then was pushed out of the car by Alia.

The rope she brought was constantly being rotated and recycled, like the cables in a tourist attraction. Sunika only felt her waist tighten and she was being pulled towards the tunnel.

Alia glanced at the conductor rushing over and raised her hand to signal the rope buckle in her hand: "Come!"

"No, let them go first - give me the lifebuoy! I'll help you distribute it! I'll go get everyone over here!"

"Okay, please!" Alia handed him a backpack and said, "There is an emergency oxygen tube in it. It can be used by those who are seriously lacking oxygen!"

"I understand." The conductor took the backpack and was very grateful: "The rescue team came just in time!"

Alia grinned. "Yeah, I think so too..."

……

……

Sunika was pulled out of the tunnel, and looking at the 'spacious and bright' flooded platform in front of her, she burst into tears of joy.

An Lele was guarding a device that reeled in a steel-core cable. When she saw someone coming, she quickly pulled her up from the track.

"It's good that someone comes out... It's good that someone comes out..."

"Where's the person?" Sunika looked around in amazement: "Where's the person?!"

An Lele was startled by her: "Don't scare me! I'm here - can you see me? Hello!"

"No, where's the rescue team?!"

"Rescue team? They're on the way!" An Lele bared his teeth, "But the road is also flooded, so it may take a while for them to arrive."

It's more than just flooded. The rescue team just called me and said that all the cars on the road are floating and the lanes are full of obstacles.

I originally thought it was a water-wading race, but it turned out to be a prop race - I don't know whether the car owners bought water-wading insurance.

An Lele untied her. More people were dragged over from behind. She didn't have time to say anything to Sonica and continued to pull people over.

Several people had choked on water when they were rescued. This rainstorm was too violent. If it had come earlier, they might have been able to evacuate along the edge of the tunnel. But it was obvious that God didn't care whether you were prepared or not. The water in the tunnel was now deep enough to submerge one and a half people. Taking the initiative to escape was almost tantamount to seeking death.

Fortunately, after Alia set up the cable, she quickly followed the turbulent water to the trapped train, so even those who were drowned could still be saved.

An Lele knelt on the ground without saying a word and started to save the man. His skilled CPR movements were very powerful.

Sunika's hands and feet were sore and she wanted to go out, but she was a little confused. After seeing An Lele busy rescuing people, she gritted her teeth and went to pull the other passengers who were pulled out by the cables. The passengers who followed also joined her in pulling others.

"Hello—it's me!"

An Lele, who was really busy with CPR, took out her phone and clipped it to her shoulder: "Yes! It's on Platform 2 of Line 12! How long will it take - OK! I know!"

Sunika went over to help her catch the phone: "Rescue team?"

"Yes, they don't want the car anymore and are wading over here on foot. It will take at most ten minutes... Is there a doctor? Is there a doctor on the scene? I need help!"

An Lele felt like he was on a battlefield, calling for medics everywhere and hearing gunfire everywhere.

And it was obvious that even the eldest lady had not "predicted" that so many people would choke on the water.

She shouldn't have come here alone, she should have brought a team of doctors to wait here!

A young lady took out a wet white coat from her pocket and put it on: "I'm an intern, I'll do it."

Sunika turned her head and found that it was the young lady who was beside her before. She had called her mother to say goodbye.

It seemed that the appearance of the white coats brought comfort to everyone, and there were sighs of relief coming from the audience.

"CPR - first aid! I'll teach you! Come!"

There were seven or eight people choking on the water. It was definitely not enough for her and An Lele to handle it. A dozen rescued citizens gathered around and showed no intention of leaving.

"Doctor, you do it, and I'll learn by watching!"

"I'm trained in first aid! I can do it!"

"We've been taught this in school before. Let me think... let me think..."

Everyone helped to move people to the higher steps on the platform. There was accumulated water below and rainwater flowing above, but there was nothing else to do now.

Sunika also gave first aid, pressing very hard each time. She pressed while begging in a muffled voice: "Wake up... please..."

"Puff--cough cough...cough vomit..."

One of the children she was rescuing choked and coughed a few times, turned over and curled up, and began to spit out water intermittently.

Sunika collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, feeling even happier than if she had been rescued.

The rescue team finally arrived. The orange-yellow fire brigade made everyone feel completely relieved, and many citizens moved to the platform.

After waiting for about half an hour, the last few people in the tunnel came out. Alia was supporting a pregnant woman, and the conductor followed behind her.

"Two hundred and twenty-seven people in total." The conductor wiped the water off his face: "Two hundred and twenty-seven, no one is left in the car... That's great..."

Alia supported the pale pregnant woman beside her and said, "Get out of the way! Everyone, get out of the way! The baby is about to be born!"

The mother was probably in labor, and when they were searching the carriage earlier, they thought everyone was out, but the conductor said he had seen a pregnant woman in the crowd.
