There was a horrible sound and flames were swirling. I really thought that it was Hiroshima's agonising death cry.
Then I heard sounds like the rolls of thunder. It was the sounds of bombs exploding in the distance. People who were on the riverbank were not in a normal state of mind at that time. Everyone was shouting, "Air-raid alert!"
They were deranged. I felt sick. People soiled themselves. They didn't worry about their appearances. There were many people whose lower parts of their bodies were naked.
