On this rainy night, the train car was filled with ordinary citizens on their way home from work. As they headed back to the South District, everyone was paying attention to the news. 175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQvBshUMXt
Half-awake Herowl's gaze fell on a snowy owl female passenger nearby, with white feathers and black spotted patterns. She wore a pink petal headpiece and a pink jumpsuit, standing out like a fairy among the tired passengers.

The train news was reporting on the situation in various districts of City 4. "Looking back at the earlier situation, after nightfall, a large number of Plaguemads attacked the North District poleace branch, and some have already retreated. 175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwJoGRerLM
The poleace are mobilizing response teams to handle the situation, and Mayor Pengury strongly condemns this." Most passengers, tired and lazy, heard the news but didn't care much, as long as it didn't affect the South District.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4jtsIKRlu
However, some citizens were especially concerned, with Mrs. Doven, a speckled dove with a pearl necklace, and Koey, a jay, being among them on the train car.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WWySKeThk
Physiognomy was Mrs. Doven, who had three consecutive words, with gray hair and black feather spots on her neck. Because the news this morning had indeed reported that Plaguemad was planning to destroy the southern area, she pointed at the train TV screen and asked, "Huh, didn't they say those locusts were coming to destroy the south? Isn't it? Isn't it?"
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLiRzKF7MX
Sitting across from her, Koey, with dark blue feathers and red eyes, although not acquainted with her, echoed, "It's better that they don't come! It's shameful to cause trouble in the south! It's even more shameful to disrupt the security of City 4!" 175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt6O6zkWNy
Koey became more and more excited as she spoke, with each sentence louder and higher than the last because it was the characteristic of a cuckoo's call.

In a noisy atmosphere, the train finally arrived at the outer South District station. The atmosphere at the station was calm, and ordinary citizens, including Herowl, got off the train and went home as usual.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIRUqJGrKb
The train platform was on the third floor, while the station's entrance hall was on the first floor. Therefore, one had to go down another level to reach the ground. As this was the terminal station, there were a lot of passengers, and Herowl followed the crowd out of the hall in a daze.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQvGni3BjS
Suddenly, screams came from the front. With Herowl's night vision ability, she looked into the distance and saw many scavenger birds, mainly eagles and crows, wearing masks and carrying sticks and crowbars running towards them in the darkness. They were all tyrants and bullies from the South District.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMUMqRQR67
The passengers in front began to turn and run back, shouting, "Run! Go back to the station!" The people behind were confused, what was happening? The citizens in front were already very excited, running back while shouting, "There's Plaguemad! Quickly retreat to the station! Hurry!" because if they didn't retreat at the back, they would be attacked, so everyone was very nervous.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhHx7blNI4
Herowl, who learned about the danger ahead, immediately helped guide the passengers back into the ticket gate machines. She also saw many injured passengers running into the station hall, while the bullies with weapons were chasing from behind.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7wz0azatI
The scene was filled with screams of horror, and as a journalist, Herowl instinctively picked up her phone to record the situation and send it to headquarters.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIp1uRSVBi
In times of crisis, great love and conscience shone brightly. Citizens in front of the gates tried their best to resist the bullies while still protecting the weak. "Protect the women and children and retreat to the platform! Men, go forward and help block to buy time!"
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmsh6umpXm
Faced with the brutal attacks of the bullies, the stronger citizens in front sacrificed themselves to block them, just to buy time for the women and children to escape. And Herowl, who was filming, did his duty well.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudthA0Ih89
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is city TV reporter Herowl bringing you an urgent report! As you can see, Plaguemad has indeed appeared in the South District and is attacking ordinary citizens in groups!" 175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTqggrcQaU
Even in the face of such a dire situation, Herowl's tone was still relatively calm, maintaining his professional attitude as a journalist. "Due to the sudden nature of the situation, it is estimated that it will take some time for poleace to arrive, so citizens can only defend against Plaguemad themselves!"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG4NT2CIsx
The strong men guarding the gate did not allow Plaguemad to slaughter them. They picked up umbrellas, fire extinguishers, and other things to resist, while women and children retreated to the lobby.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1kh9duhQL
However, the armed and fierce actions of the two sides were incomparable, Plaguemad always fought fiercely, and the citizens could not resist at all.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA3kxRGfqZ
At the same time, there were also Plaguemad who ignored the gate and attacked the citizens directly from the side.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLzKrO7l28
Many citizens retreated to the third-floor platform along the lobby elevator one after another, but Herowl stayed in the lobby risking his life to film.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHp6WSE5FC
At this moment, he noticed a girl not far away bravely resisting the bully next to the fence, it was the snowy owl in the pink dress from the carriage. However, how could she fight the big man alone?
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAksiZn5jf
Not only that, Herowl saw a burly bully nearby holding a trash can and preparing to sneak attack.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj86Au8Zr7
In a critical moment, Herowl rushed over decisively to pull Snowy Owl away, and shouted excitedly at Plaguemad to stop. "Stop! Come with me quickly!" Hand in hand with Snowy Owl, Herowl pulled her and ran up the stairs to the platform to escape.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHNs5eee0E
"Thank you," Snowy Owl said as she looked back at the bully who had just attacked, and they stared angrily at each other. Perhaps the bald eagle saw Herowl filming and did not pursue, instead turning to attack other citizens near the gate.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0WLUs63FL
Herowl also sincerely admired the seemingly frail girl: "You are really brave, they are out-of-control Plaguemad! Aren't you afraid of offending them?" According to medical reports, although Plaguemad has violent tendencies, they still have memory of the onset process.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1nbA5FBni
"Do you really believe in Flyania? Look at them, they are just taking advantage and attacking civilians, maybe they are causing chaos for money," Snowy Owl asked Herowl, with a mix of anger and sarcasm in her tone.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy9ACzhEz6
Seeing her explain seriously, Herowl, of course, didn't believe it, and responded playfully, "Haha, don't talk nonsense, how could something like that happen. You hurry up to the platform, I still need to stay here to film."
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCSSkDwqQI
It was only then that Snowy Owl carefully looked at Herowl's face. "Oh... filming? You seem familiar, are you the journalist Herowl?"
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbUqBn1WSh
Before Herowl could react, he forgot the previous topic and inwardly rejoiced, "I didn't expect to be recognized by an audience, you..."
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjBdKvDOKF
Suddenly, screams not far away interrupted their conversation. The gate defense line was breached, and other bullies surged through the fence. The frontline civilians who were resisting were defeated, and everyone rushed to the platform.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUgLjG1orY
Many citizens who were unable to escape could only huddle on the ground, allowing Plaguemad to beat them indiscriminately, causing a terrifying and chaotic scene.
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PzIzUV9Ao
Feeling powerless, Herowl could only film these scenes to show the truth to the citizens, while still pushing Snowy Owl onto the platform for safety. He reported while fleeing, his voice beginning to tremble, "Audiences can see... how violent Plaguemad is!"
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFUpfNedlB
Snowy Owl did not care whether he was reporting or not, and interrupted directly, repeating her question from earlier, "Mr. Journalist, do you still think they are Plaguemad? This whole Flyania thing is nonsense."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6chpfI8vNB
During the crisis, Herowl didn't mind at all and confidently answered in front of the camera, "Of course, no matter how bold these bullies are, they wouldn't dare to launch such a large-scale attack. Aren't they afraid of the poleace and the City 4 legal sanctions? Besides the Flyania outbreak, what other explanation could there be?"
175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9l3lcrU5g
"Hey, then you better film their actions," Snowy Owl smiled helplessly, seeming to be very clear that these bullies are not Plaguemad, but she still cared about Herowl's retreat.
