At midnight, a heart-stopping alarm resounded.
The lights in the hospital ward building lit up one by one.
Many people, startled from their sleep with bleary eyes, ran to the windows, looking towards the source of the disturbance.
Within the night as thick as ink, the outline of a gray building faintly emerged, as if completely devoured by the darkness.
Now and then, there was a dense sound like the popping of beans, mixing with the alarms and carried by the wind.
It seemed as if some unknown horror was unfolding within that building.
Just as everyone was confused and uneasy, a deep and powerful roar came from afar, drowning out all the unusual commotion.
Several armed helicopters, like steel eagles, tore through the night sky with a howl, swiftly flying over the building.
Descending, the rotor wash from the blades caused the surrounding trees to tremble violently.
