He was just typing a regular message to a regular person whom he didn't want to call, when he accidentally pressed the # button. "F...ing hell!" he said.
In an instant there was a screeching of a tyre and a fuel truck was sliding sideways into a tree. Because of a smoker who had thrown her cigarette on the street without putting it out, the fuel tank caught fire and a thundering, violent, explosion projected the passers by, dead and injured to the ground, lighting up the trees and cars around. The driver was heard screaming for the first few seconds, but the cry eventually stopped and was replaced by the sound of the flames gnawing greedily at everything around. A few squirrels caught fire and started running around and then falling burnt to the ground. One of them had time to run directly through an opened window on the ground floor of a building, lighting up the curtains which spread the fire all through the apartment. It was a messy room, with clothes thrown all around, so everything lit very fast. A few minutes later, there was another huge explosion, because of the gas pipe which was accidentally hit with the axe by the tenant who had tried to crack the burning door opened. From the third floor, an old couple jumped out of the window with the intention of landing on a tree, but they missed its branches and broke their necks instead. The horrified crowd rushed to their aid, but then other people from the burning building were pouring down to the pavement, making it very dangerous to approach the corpses.
When he snapped out of his amazement at the scene, he checked his phone again and instead of the # button, was a miniature face of the devil.
