Upon hearing this, Sylvia's heart tightened, and she immediately said, "I'll call my brother-in-law and have him contact the relevant departments!"
The pouring rain poured down relentlessly from the sky, and the car was driven out of the garage.
Franklin tried to take a shortcut as usual, but found that everywhere was flooded, making it impossible to proceed.
Many bicycles and electric bikes floated on the road.
"This isn't just rain anymore, it's a flood." Sylvia looked at the alarming scene and immediately called Evie, "Evie, arrange for our people to prepare for rescue immediately. Look for those who are physically fit and strong."
As she spoke, she also sent a message to the group chat of the former Royal Galaxy, informing everyone to protect themselves and establish a rescue team.
After notifying everyone, Franklin drove while handing his phone to her. "Help me inform SouthStar Airlines and all employees of the Maskelyne Group to organize a rescue team. With this sudden downpour, many people are likely homeless and affected. Every rescue counts."
Knowing the unlock code of his screen, Sylvia opened the phone and began editing Facebook to send out messages.
The car only had two bars of gas left when it drove out, and almost all the gas stations they encountered along the way were flooded.
They had to find a high ground gas station that hadn't been submerged.
The water had already risen above the wheels, reaching the level of the car doors. Fortunately, they had driven out in a high-chassis off-road vehicle from the garage.
It had a higher chassis and body than ordinary cars.
The road was full of water, flowing rapidly, with many private cars submerged, and many manhole covers washed away.
Franklin dared not drive too fast, afraid that the car would stall if driven too fast.
He could only drive slowly at thirty-four miles per hour, with the deepest part of the water almost reaching the car headlights, almost submerging the car windows.
Sometimes they could almost feel the car slowing down, starting to drift forward in the water on its own.
But he dared not stop the car, fearing that if the car stopped here, there would be no one to help.
"Fortunately, it's an off-road vehicle, taller than ordinary cars, and it passed through several deep water areas smoothly." Sylvia looked at the turbid and swift yellow water outside, feeling anxious. "I wonder how Jasper and the others are doing in the tunnel."
They passed several tunnels filled with rainwater, almost completely filled with no gaps.
Seeing this heartbreaking scene, Sylvia furrowed her brow in worry. "I hope they're safe."
Suddenly, her attention was drawn to a figure floating in the water under the bridge.
"There's someone! Someone in the water!"
"Are you sure? Everyone should have run home by now. Who would be wandering the streets?" Franklin turned to look in the direction Sylvia indicated.
Just then, he saw a young man on the overpass suddenly jump into the water and swim towards the red figure in the water.
Surprised, he said, "Seems like there really is someone. Stay here, I'll go over too."
Without another word, he took off his raincoat and jumped from the overpass into the cold water below. Despite the icy water, he swam towards the red figure with determination.
