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. 158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwBfpAOucv
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. 158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLIVTdks0c
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.158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySppW7vo2y
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.158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7REBaZVWk
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?"
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6rz1UkkE3
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!" 158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWOVyFZupC
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvtOIHGNCK
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSA1rd6oZs
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5Wqy7QJ0r
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s8YOWyOoV
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0olbBqrRo
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCXeZJj8et
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!"
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5s40mzk49
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmKDhnE2VP
"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!" 158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1egC8Dz2D
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!"158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB2bWInfJ3
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.158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDedt1oWcP
However, the armed and fierce actions of the two sides were incomparable, Plaguemad always fought fiercely, and the citizens could not resist at all.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXtBmWAxqd
At the same time, there were also Plaguemad who ignored the gate and attacked the citizens directly from the side.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlonS5mO0b
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.158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn8stsvaCK
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?
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnMSO73MPZ
Not only that, Herowl saw a burly bully nearby holding a trash can and preparing to sneak attack.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcUAEsuFnq
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRkUn2FLox
"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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54E0IOwFhn
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tFWz4iSCO
"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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNqtvJdQnx
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."
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFG0iRvpY5
It was only then that Snowy Owl carefully looked at Herowl's face. "Oh... filming? You seem familiar, are you the journalist Herowl?"
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIhLKfk4N0
Before Herowl could react, he forgot the previous topic and inwardly rejoiced, "I didn't expect to be recognized by an audience, you..."
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFQJ1ZysJo
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.158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoEL3d3Kvv
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.
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodNtz1DOxW
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!"
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7U2PHhho2
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."158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF7MRiNOdG
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?"
158Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOuNIOO5YA
"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.
