She sat in her office and reviewed the latest stock market reports on a monitor, while the latest news changed on the translucent wall of the latest generation, when a flash of a giant fire, a multitude of fire trucks and thick black smoke caught her attention. She put down her laptop for a moment and said: “Review.”
At the same moment, the wall closed its transparency, the image was further sharpened, and the terrible noise of fire sirens, the sound of fire, breakage, human screams filled her office.
The office stood silent.
Her heart skipped a beat when she realized that this happened in the elite part of the city, where her beloved lives and works. The words of an unbelieving reporter, who could not find anyone who would tell him the cause of the explosion and fire, whether there were any injured, came to her consciousness like through a fog.
The shots changed and an aerial image was shown.
The material damage was enormous, it was obvious at first sight, one part of the laboratory complex, which made the much larger research complex, was completely destroyed, millions of tons of structure simply disappeared. Mark's face appeared in the frame for a moment, at that moment, she remembered that he was the head of security at Research Laboratories, who immediately ordered the interruption of reporting for the personal safety of the news team and the setting up of a protective perimeter.
She thought she saw Megalopolis planes, which means that the danger is much greater than what is being said at the moment. An indicator on her wall flashed and a connection was established. Mark, who suddenly looked 20 years older and more miserable, just told her that the boss is in St. Damon.
“We don't know what condition he is in.” he continued. A worry danced on his face.
She didn't even have time to speak, and the contact was broken and the wall became medium transparent again without any broadcasts.
She didn't even pealize that the station's signal had stopped broadcasting as soon as there was no news, nothing, because she immediately took her Blueberry purse, activated navigation on her cell phone and rushed to the hospital.
As soon as she came out, lights automatically turned off.
