Chapter 938: False Alarm

On the first Sunday after returning home from a business trip, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng experienced a false alarm.

The rapid knock on the door woke Gao Fei from his sleep and he quickly sat up from the bed.

Jiang Feng also got out of the bed, with her black and shiny hair scattered on the pillow. She yawned, squinted her eyes, and fumbled with her hands like a blind man.

Gao Fei picked up her mobile phone from the bedside table and stuffed it into his girlfriend's slender hands that had nowhere to put.

Jiang Feng looked at the screen of the mobile phone and muttered in confusion: "It's only 5:05. Whose courier is so diligent? He knocked on the door at dawn."

Gao Fei heard the anxious shouts of a middle-aged woman and the messy footsteps coming from the corridor outside the door, and his face became solemn.

"There's a big scene outside. It doesn't sound like a courier is delivering a courier."

At this time, the knock on the door sounded again.

"I'm coming!" Gao Fei put on his pajamas and went to open the door in slippers.

Less than a minute later, he returned to the bedroom and said to Jiang Feng, "Our landlord, Sister Ma, knocked on every door, saying that there was an earthquake just now, and reminded us to go downstairs and take shelter."

"Ah? Earthquake?" Jiang Feng was a little nervous, "Did you feel it?"

Gao Fei thought for a while and recalled, "Just when I was sleeping in a daze, there was suddenly a force behind me, almost pushing me off the bed. It must be an earthquake. Did you feel it?"

"Yes, but not as strong as you said." Jiang Feng recalled absentmindedly, "I just felt the bed shaking slightly, and there was a buzzing sound in my ears. I thought you were snoring, so I pushed you hard with my butt... Uh, you just said someone pushed you from behind, right?"

Gao Fei said nothing, staring at her resentfully.

"Hehe, the case is solved! Don't blame the earthquake, it's my fault." Jiang Feng smiled shyly.

"It doesn't matter even if a big earthquake really happens." Gao Fei comforted his girlfriend while putting on his clothes. "After I became a formal special police officer, the station chief opened a magic line for me. I can cast spells anytime and anywhere. It only takes three seconds to teleport you to a safe place before the residential building collapses."

"I'm not afraid of earthquakes. With our abilities, there are many ways to escape, but what if the building collapses, what about the neighbors?"

Jiang Feng put on a pullover sweater, smoothed his long black hair, and imagined the big earthquake scene he saw in the movie, and his face was worried.

Gao Fei was moved by her inadvertent warmth. After thinking about it, he smiled and comforted his girlfriend: "Don't forget, I have a pope's seal ring in my hand. When necessary, I can activate the anti-gravity field covering the entire building, which is enough to offset the impact of the earthquake."

"Wow! Husband, you are so awesome! I admire you so much!"

Jiang Feng crossed his fingers and held them in front of his chest, pretending to be full of admiring little stars, but before the show was over, the urging voice outside the door destroyed the atmosphere.

"Hey! This Sister Ma is too enthusiastic, and sometimes she's quite... annoying." Jiang Feng said angrily.

"Aren't you also an enthusiastic woman? You take everything on yourself when you see injustice." Gao Fei took the opportunity to complain about his girlfriend, "When you are in your forties or fifties, you may become an enthusiastic Sister Jiang in the neighborhood committee."

Jiang Feng imagined the scene of himself getting older. He laughed at first, and suddenly felt a little sad: "Husband, I miss my mother... Your mother-in-law Aunt Sun is the owner group manager of my community. She takes the lead in arranging things for everyone. I always laugh at her for worrying about nothing, but when I get old, I'm afraid I will become such a nosy aunt."

"What's wrong with that?" Gao Fei put his arm around her shoulders. "During the winter vacation, do you want me to accompany you home for the New Year?"

"Let's talk about it then. Maybe we have to run back and forth. We can't ignore anyone's family, otherwise your parents will be unhappy."

"A daughter-in-law who hasn't married yet is quite sensible!"

"Of course, after all, I'm the elder sister!" Jiang Feng smiled gently, turned his head to the door and changed his impatient face: "Sister Ma, don't rush me, Gao Fei and I will go downstairs soon!"

The two put on masks and changed their shoes. Just as they were about to go out, Jiang Feng thought of something else and hurried into the kitchen.

Gao Fei heard the sound of opening the refrigerator and couldn't help laughing, but he didn't ask her what she was going to get.

The two of them went downstairs slowly, just in time for a wave of aftershocks. The old-fashioned electric lights in the corridor shook slightly, swaying out strange shadows, but soon returned to calm.

Sister Ma had been waiting for them at the entrance of the corridor, and after meeting them, she couldn't help but scold them again.

The temperature was still quite low in the early morning of January.

The courtyard of the community was full of people, most of them were in dishevel, shivering in the cold wind, and some were wrapped in quilts, looking particularly funny.

Only Gao Fei and Jiang Feng were dressed neatly, winning praise from their neighbors, who admired the two college students for their calmness and calmness in the face of difficulties.

Usually everyone was busy with work and school, and although they lived in the same building, they rarely interacted with each other.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to avoid the earthquake, the neighbors chatted in groups of three or two, and the topic was also focused on the earthquake.
