I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 946 Don't be afraid, I'm here

earthquake?

Almost at the moment the word flashed through Qin Ke's mind, his cell phone sounded a bone-chilling earthquake warning sound.

Many customers' cell phones also started ringing.

Qin Ke's heart was beating wildly, it was really an earthquake!

The shaking of the ground became obvious in the next moment, and the atmospheric chandelier above kept shaking, and the light trembled randomly, adding a bit of tension to the atmosphere. Many bowls and cups on the tables fell to the ground, making a series of breaking sounds, and customers were all around screaming in panic.

Even the chairs everyone was sitting on began to move, and the legs of the chairs rubbed against the floor, making a harsh sound.

Qin Ke subconsciously held down the table with one hand and hugged Ning Qingyun with the other - unlike the chair that could be moved, the table was fixed to the floor, which could at least stabilize his body. As for hugging his wife, of course he was afraid that she would fall down and get hurt in panic.

Ning Qingyun was indeed frightened. She held Qin Ke's hand tightly, her face turned pale.

She and Qin Ke have been paying close attention to earthquakes during this period. They took the time to read a lot of papers and books. They are still afraid of the terrible power of earthquakes. When an earthquake strikes, no matter what your status is or where you are, as long as you are in the vicinity of a strong earthquake, Within the coverage area, survival is purely a matter of luck.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Qin Ke was also nervous, but his nerves were tenacious and he calmed down quickly.

He noticed that the magnitude of the shaking was not large. He could only say that there was a relatively obvious earthquake. He could probably judge that the magnitude was between 4.5-4.8. It was considered a weak earthquake. Basically, except for injuries caused by falls or falling objects, , there will be no real danger.

Qin Ke held Ning Qingyun in his arms to stabilize his body, while looking around to prevent anything from falling from the top. As a result, he didn't see anything hitting him, but he saw a stroller that he didn't know was there when it stopped. I didn't press the wheel brake, but the wheel brake was broken, and it actually started to slide due to the vibration of the ground.

A young mother next to her was probably so frightened that she didn't notice that the stroller had slid away. She waited until the stroller had slid a few steps away before she panicked and shouted, "Baby!" She then tried to rush over to grab the stroller, but the ground Shaking, she lost her balance as soon as she took two steps, hit the table and fell.

Many customers around saw this scene and screamed, because they all discovered that the direction the stroller was sliding towards was the escalator!

With Qin Ke's LV7 sports level and master-level Wing Chun skills, his body's reaction speed has almost reached the limit of human beings. Without thinking, he squeezed the edge of the table with one hand and stretched out his legs at the same time. Insert the space between the four wheels under the stroller.

With a soft sound, the stroller's castration suddenly stopped.

Qin Ke's calf was also hit by the iron rod at the bottom of the stroller. However, his skin was thick and thick, so he only felt a little pain. The real danger was that his body was tilted, and he could only hold the edge of the table with the five fingers of one hand. To support the weight of him and Ning Qingyun - because Ning Qingyun had been leaning against him and hugging him tightly, Qin Ke's movements were too fast and sudden, and Ning Qingyun didn't react at all.

The two weights were superimposed, and Qin Ke's arm muscles that were holding the edge of the table suddenly stood up with veins.

He was wearing short sleeves, and Qiu Jin's solid muscles could be clearly seen.

The customers who witnessed this scene once again exclaimed nervously and worriedly, fearing that Qin Ke would not be able to stabilize his body and even he and his female companion would fall down.

Ning Qingyun hurriedly let go of Qin Ke, and while trying to sit up, she wanted to reach out to help Qin Ke.

Qin Ke was afraid that she would fall, so he said anxiously: "Don't move! Hold my arm tight! I can do it!"

Ning Qingyun was almost connected to him. The more critical it was, the more she trusted Qin Ke. Without even thinking, she obediently hugged Qin Ke again and gave up her plan to help Qin Ke regardless of danger.

She has almost blind trust in Qin Ke.

Qin Ke said "yes", which meant that it was okay and she didn't need her help.

Sure enough, under the panicked and surprised eyes of many people, Qin Ke only held the edge of the table with one hand and five fingers, then took a deep breath, slowly retracted his legs, pulled the stroller to his side, and waited for his left foot to move again. After landing on the ground, his body shape has returned to a stable state.

Although the stroller was still shaking with the ground, it was fixed by Qin Ke's feet and there was no danger of slipping away.

Everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. However, the earthquake continued. No one dared to move. They just desperately held on to the fixed objects around them. Some people even got under the table and hugged the legs of the table.

At this moment, time seemed to become extremely long. When the earthquake finally stopped, everyone thought that a few minutes had passed, but in fact it was only half a minute.

Before everyone could calm down from their shock, Wei Feng and Wei Jing, who were guarding outside the store, staggered in and rushed in.

They were originally standing at the door of the shop, secretly protecting Qin Ke and the two, but they did not expect that an earthquake actually occurred. Even special agents like them could not move on such a shaking ground, so they could only wait impatiently for the earthquake to end.

Thankfully, the earthquake was not a strong one. The two people rushed in and saw that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were safe and sound, and their hanging hearts finally settled. Wei Feng quickly helped move the stroller and helped Qin Ke sit up.

The young mother crawled over and took over the stroller. She immediately checked the baby in the stroller and found that the baby was not injured except for crying out of fear. She couldn't help but burst into tears and hugged her own baby. The child kissed him a few times before he remembered to say thank you, and Qin Ke and others hurriedly thanked him.

Wei Feng whispered to Qin Ke: "To ensure safety, please leave here with me right away!"

He was worried that there would be a more serious earthquake next, and wanted to take Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun away from here as soon as possible and move them to the open square downstairs.

Qin Ke knew that Yuanzhou was not in an earthquake zone. There had never been an earthquake greater than magnitude 5 in history. The strongest one was an earthquake with an intensity of about 4.8 more than a hundred years ago. Coupled with his own earthquake knowledge, he It is judged that this is an occasional small earthquake, and the probability of subsequent strong earthquakes is very small.

However, he noticed that the face of Ning Qingyun next to him was pale and he was obviously very frightened. He also thought that it would be troublesome for a gentleman to stay under a dangerous wall and be recognized by others. Qin Ke nodded towards Wei Feng. : "Okay. Let's go."

He then said to everyone: "Everyone leave here as soon as possible and go to an open area. Don't take the elevator and take the safety stairs."

This is the third floor, so walking up the stairs won't be hard.

Qin Ke looked around as he spoke and found that no one should be injured, so he pulled Ning Qingyun and left quickly.

Ning Qingjun's legs were still a little weak, but with the support of Qin Ke and Wei Jing, she still stepped forward firmly.

Wei Feng and two other plainclothes men who hurriedly arrived protected them from the fire escape stairs.

It wasn't until they reached the square downstairs that they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There were panicked crowds all around. Fortunately, most of the people in the square knew how to squat down with their heads in their hands. Only a few people were running around screaming like blind flies. By this time, the earthquake had stopped and they had not calmed down.

The sun was still scorching high outside and the heat wave was scorching, but no one could care about such hot weather. Everyone looked nervously and talked about the sudden earthquake. Not to mention them, even Ning Qingyun still held Qin Ke's hand tightly. Her little fingers were a little stiff. Qin Ke hugged her and patted her back gently, and Ning Qingyun slowly relaxed. , and then with a jolt, his little face became nervous again.

"By the way, are your parents, grandparents, and baby okay?"

She hurriedly went to look for her cell phone in her bag to make a call. Qin Ke's cell phone was stuffed in her trouser pocket, making it easier to take it out.

Qin Ke said hurriedly: "Honey, don't worry, I'll make a call."

When the phone was unlocked, a prompt popped up immediately in the dim light: "Master Qin Ke, after checking, the earthquake has been confirmed to have stopped." Then the previous earthquake warning interface was directly displayed.

It shows that the epicenter of the earthquake is the suburb of Yuanzhou, which is almost 8 kilometers away. The warning magnitude is exactly 4.8 and the intensity is 1.7, indicating that the earthquake has stopped. There are expected to be minor aftershocks. There is no danger of strong earthquakes. However, citizens are still advised to stay away from the earthquake. Instead of taking the elevator, go to the Triangle of Life or an open area to avoid danger.

"Don't worry, the epicenter is about 11 kilometers away from home, don't worry." Qin Ke was also thinking about his parents, sister and two babies. These days, my parents, grandpa Ning Jingguang, grandma Chu Mimei, and grandpa Shen Tieshan have all come to the city to live with them, helping to raise their children and living in the Ning family's villa.

Fortunately, the epicenter of this earthquake is far away from the urban area, so the earthquake at home should not be felt as much as here.

However, Qin Ke was still worried that the elderly or children might have fallen while playing, so he quickly called back. But before his call was dialed, his father's call came first.

"Qin Ke, there was an earthquake just now. Were you and Qingyun injured outside?"

Dad, who had always been a bit careless, now had a rare voice full of nervousness.

Listening to his father's voice, Qin Ke felt warm in his heart. Only those who have experienced the danger just now can realize how relieved and lucky they are when hearing the voices of their family members.

"Dad, Qingyun and I are fine. We are in the square now. Where are you?"

"We are all fine. It's just that Xiaoxiao happened to be jumping up and down on the sofa and was knocked down. However, she fell on the sofa and was not hurt. Then I hugged her and Zhengzheng tightly."

His father said it easily, but Qin Ke could imagine the scene at that time. His father must have been desperately trying to protect his two grandchildren.

Qin Ke remembered that when he was a child, he almost got into a car accident while carrying his sister on his back, and it was his father who rushed across the road and tore him and his sister apart...

"Dad, Qingyun and I are going home right now."

When he said the word "go home", Qin Ke's nose felt a little sore.

"You should pay attention to your safety and stay in an open place first. It is not too late to come back when you are sure there is no earthquake. Don't worry, I am at home. I am in great health and can take care of a whole family!"

Qin Ke knew that Ning Qingyun's villa had been designated as a cultural relic and was inspected and repaired by professionals every year. Its earthquake resistance was better than that of most high-rise buildings. He did not persuade his father to take his family to leave. He just agreed to wait until the earthquake was confirmed. Has completely stopped before returning home.

While he was on the phone, Ning Qingyun's cell phone also rang. It was her grandma Chu Mimei.

Not only their mobile phones, Wei Feng and Wei Jing's communicators were also busy, reporting Qin Ke's safety status to various people.

What is certain is that because Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are involved, this small earthquake will definitely attract a lot of attention...

Of course, what surprised Qin Ke was that in less than ten minutes, a helicopter had landed in a nearby park. Wei Feng and Wei Jing took him and Ning with them on the grounds that they were "ordered to ensure the safety of the two academicians." Qingjun flew directly out of the city and to a training ground in the suburbs far away from the source of the earthquake.

Soon after, the families of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were also brought here by helicopter and stayed for two days.

During this period, earthquakes did occur several times, but they were all very weak earthquakes, not even magnitude 3.0. Judging from the announcement issued by the Earthquake Management Bureau, the Enshu earthquake was truly over.

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have not been idle in the past two days. In addition to responding to the phone calls and WeChat "condolences and concerns" from relatives and friends, they have also devoted themselves to research.

After personally experiencing a not-so-dangerous earthquake, the two of them paid much more attention to earthquakes. Through video conferencing, they held remote meetings with the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory of Qingmu University and the European Meteorological Center respectively. The topic was how to do their best. Possibly improve the success rate of earthquake prediction, especially earthquakes with strong earthquake levels.

No earthquake will occur suddenly, because the movement of continental plates must be traceable. However, there are currently many factors that cause earthquakes, weak observation capabilities, and insufficient big data analysis and modeling capabilities. This makes it difficult to predict earthquakes with satisfactory accuracy.

After Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun discussed it, they decided to take action personally to optimize and upgrade the current earthquake prediction model.

The two days flew by in a hurry.

On the third day, Qin Yanghui, Shen Qiuyi, and grandpa Shen Tieshan set off back to Qingping Town. They did not want to disturb the lives of the young couple, and they were unable to leave their hometown, so they did not plan to follow them to the capital.

Grandpa Ning Jingguang and grandma Chu Mimei have been able to live happily with their granddaughter, grandson-in-law and two great-grandchildren for two or three weeks. They are very satisfied. They are even more afraid that their health will suddenly fail one day and make their children worried. They chose to go back to the nursing home because there were children in the orphanage there and they were worried about it.

So Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun reluctantly said goodbye to their relatives, and flew back to the capital with Qin Xiaoke and their two babies.

At this time, Beijing has entered September, but it is not the golden autumn September in the past, but "midsummer September", and the average temperature is still above 40 degrees Celsius.

No matter what the weather is like, Qingmu University still welcomes another new class of students.

Just because the weather is too hot, the military training for freshmen has been postponed to October as usual, so the campus lacks a lot of "military training green".

Many freshmen, who are still young, are wearing their own beautiful clothes, facing the scorching sun, curiously looking at this famous historical school where they will live for four years or more.

After Qin Ke, Ning Qingyun and his entourage arrived at the airport by special plane, they transferred to a car and returned to Qingmu University. They passed quietly among a group of freshmen and returned to the garden villa along the campus road. The whole process did not attract the attention of many freshmen. ——They never expected that the idol they most wanted to see when they came to this school was in a black car that passed them.

Qin Xiaoke has entered her junior year, and there are basically not many professional courses left. In addition, the weather is hot. Apart from showing her face at school on the day of registration, she practices painting by herself in the garden villa and teases the two little ones. My nephews and nieces live a relaxed and happy life.

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are no longer so leisurely. After having a feast with their neighbor Mr. Qiu and his family on the first day back to school, they got into intense work the next day.

Before starting to optimize the earthquake prediction model, they still had a very important thing to deal with, which was to go to the laboratories of Academician Ji Xingming of Qingmu University and Academician Du Jianzhang of Yanda University to complete the final finishing work of the radioactive element detoxification experiment.
