789 Fire Escape

()

Perhaps the word "child" touched his heart, and the man gradually calmed down. After calming down, he put down his chair, squatted down dejectedly, buried his head between his knees, and started to cry.

At this moment, no one would laugh at the man's tears. Everyone fell silent, a stream of unspeakable sadness and despair filled with them.

Although Liang Jian was still hopeful, to be honest, he didn't have much confidence. He directed people to help the person who had just been injured to another place. After bandaging them, he walked to the door of the safety exit and took a look. The corridor was full of smoke. He thought about it, found some rags, took off one of his coats, and blocked the cracks under the door.

After everything was done, Liang Jian walked to the police officer and sat down. The little girl had woken up and leaned weakly in her mother's arms. Occasionally, she opened her eyes without any concealment of fear.

Suddenly, the little girl looked up at her mother and asked, "Mom, can we escape?"

The woman wanted to answer with a smile so that her answer would sound more reliable. But before she could laugh, she cried first. Liang Jian took out his cell phone and looked at it, but there was no signal.

After sitting for a while, Liang Jian thought that it would be better to wait here. He asked the person next to him: "Is there any place to go up to the rooftop here?"

Someone replied: "I can't get up. A few years ago, some people who couldn't think of it liked to run up to jump off the building, so they locked the door and never opened it."

In other words, there is nowhere to go. This building is the ninth floor. But according to them, the two floors above are always locked because they are always empty.

The seventh floor is the only place they can stay. Fortunately, the seventh floor is not like the following floors, and they are all shops. It is the office space for building managers and is quite spacious. If there is no explosion, I can stay here for a while.

The time to wait for rescue is long. It is not an exaggeration to say that life is like years. After panic, people are always easy to get tired. After a period of calm, those people lean on each other and are drowsy.

Liang Jian was always tense. He looked at the time every fifteen minutes. Perhaps because the sixth floor was not a store, there were not so many flammable items, it delayed the time when the fire spread upwards.

After Liang Jian looked at it three times, there was finally another movement in the quiet building.

This time it was the sound of footsteps, the sound of falling on the stairs quickly and heavily. At this time, the footsteps should be nothing but the firefighters. Liang Jian couldn't help but get excited, stood up and walked towards the safety door. When he moved, everyone else woke up, stood up one after another, and rushed over.

Liang Jian opened the security door and rushed out to see that he didn't see anyone, but he heard the sound. He shouted into the corridor: "Is anyone? We're on the seventh floor?"

The sound rushed downwards and echoed in the thick smoke. Liang Jian started coughing. As soon as he started coughing, he heard an echo: "What floor?"

Liang Jian was overjoyed, and the people behind him also cheered.

"Seventh Floor—" a group of people shouted.

A minute later, two firefighters appeared in front of everyone. Seeing a group of people behind Liang Jian, they first checked everyone. After seeing that they were not seriously injured, they comforted him a few more words, and then said, "I can't get out below. I'll contact the ladder and pick you out. Let's go, let's go to the top of the building!"

Someone answered: "The door on the roof is locked and I can't get out."

The firefighter said: "It's okay. Just smash it."

When everyone heard this, they felt full of hope. A group of people followed the two firefighters to the stairs. Liang Jian walked behind and took care of the mother and daughter with the police officers.

When we arrived at the top floor, facing the locked door, the firefighters took out the tools and smashed them open in a few strokes. The fresh air that hit everyone's heart that had not been completely relieved was completely put down. The ladder was already in place, and dozens of trapped people got on the ladder one by one, and landed safely under the escort of the firefighters.

Liang Jian was the last one to go down. As soon as he landed, he saw Xia Churong greeting him with nervousness on his face and said, "You boy, I'm scared to death! Is it okay?"

Liang Jian shook his head and said, "It's okay."

After the words came, Liang Jian raised his eyes and saw a familiar figure, rushing towards him anxiously. She seemed to be about to throw herself into his arms, but she still stopped, a meter away. When Xia Churong saw Hu Xiaoying coming, he greeted her and walked away to work on her own affairs.

"Is it okay?" Hu Xiaoying asked. Liang Jian nodded: "I'm fine. Why are you here too?"

After asking, Liang Jian remembered that she is now the deputy director of the Propaganda Department. This fire has exploded three times so far, so she naturally wants to be there.

Hu Xiaoying said: "You shouldn't be so impulsive. Just let the firefighters do this."

When Liang Jian was on the seventh floor, he actually thought about whether he shouldn't come in. But he knew that even if he did it again, he would still go in. He was not the kind of person who could stand by and watch. He smiled and said, "You know, I am such a person."

Hu Xiaoying looked at him with fear in her eyes. Liang Jian saw it and was moved, but he couldn't say anything more. The two of them were silent, which made people embarrassed.

At this time, someone shouted: "Minister Hu." Hu Xiaoying looked back and looked at her secretary. She quickly turned around and told Liang Jian: "There is a medical team over there, you go over and check it. Especially the respiratory tract. Don't get any problems."

Liang Jian nodded: "You go and do your business."

Hu Xiaoying turned around and left, took two steps, stopped again, turned around and looked at him, and said, "I will arrange to remember to come and interview you later, and you can make preparations."

Liang Jian didn't react for a moment and asked: "Interview with me? What are you interviewing?"

Hu Xiaoying said: "Although I know that you did not deliberately do this to gain fame. But since you have done it, you must make full use of it, otherwise I will be sorry for your efforts."

Liang Jian understood. Hu Xiaoying wanted to help him build momentum. Indeed, there were many provincial and municipal officials on the scene, but he was the only one who dared to rush into the fire. Although he failed to succeed, he came out and was rescued by firefighters in the end. However, for the media, as long as you dare to rush in, they can write you as a hero.

However, Liang Jian didn't want to be this hero very much. This made people feel that the instinctive things he did just now had changed. However, Hu Xiaoying did not give him the chance to refuse. Liang Jian walked to the medical car and before he finished the examination, several reporters walked towards him.

It was a coincidence that at this moment, the mother and daughter also arrived at the medical car. The little girl's spirit had recovered a lot. When she saw Liang Jian, she was very happy and called her uncle sweetly. The girl's mother also thanked Liang Jian several times with gratitude. She also said, "If you hadn't taken the risk of coming in and taking us out of the fifth floor, we might not have escaped."

When the girl's mother said this, the reporters happened to be behind and heard it. Immediately, several reporters surrounded the three of them, and the doctor who was examining Liang Jian was also pushed aside, looking unhappy.

The reporter asked the girl's mother: "I just heard you say that this gentleman took the risk of entering the fire to rescue you, right?" The reporter's question actually ignored something. Liang Jian glanced at the reporter and wanted to clarify, but was interrupted by the girl's mother. She said: "Yes. It was him and the policeman who saved us."

The girl's mother mentioned the policeman, but none of these reporters cared about the policeman and asked again: "Can you describe the situation to me?"

The girl's mother looked tired and seemed a little reluctant. After all, the situation at that time was like a nightmare for them. No one would be willing to recall a nightmare. Liang Jian saw it and stood up to stop it, saying, "They just came out of it, especially the children, and need rest. Why don't you come over and interview later."

The reporters looked at each other a few times, and Liang Jian took the opportunity to say to the girl's mother, "You go and rest first." The girl's mother hurriedly took the little girl away.

The reporters were not easy to chase after each other. After looking at each other for a moment, they came to ask Liang Jian again. At this time, they changed their name: "Chairman Liang, can you tell us about the situation at that time?"

Liang Jian smiled and said, "The situation was urgent at that time, and I don't remember it very much. In fact, I was not the only one at that time, but also a police officer from the municipal bureau. Why don't you ask him?"

Seeing that Liang Jian didn't want to say it, they had to settle for the second best and asked Liang Jian: "Who is it?"

Liang Jian glanced at the audience and saw the policeman sitting and resting not far away. He pointed and said, "Here, that's that one."

After seeing this, the reporters immediately moved the position. Liang Jian breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to take a break, his cell phone rang. Liang Jian took it out and saw that it was Xiang Jin's phone call. He hurriedly answered.

The sound at the scene was noisy. After Liang Jian picked it up, he spoke first and then walked quickly to a slightly quieter place before starting to speak.

"How are you? Are you okay?" Xiang Jin's voice came from the other end of the phone anxiously. At the same time, there were some sounds coming, and Liang Jian distinguished the voices of Li Yuanli and Liang Dongfang.

Liang Jian wondered how Xiang Jin knew that he was at the fire scene. Xiang Jin seemed to guess what he was thinking and said, "I just saw you on the live TV."

Liang Jian was stunned and looked around. Soon, he found a live news car not far from the front of the fire building, listening to the words "Ningzhou TV" written on it.

It seems that when he came out of the building just now, he entered the camera.

Liang Jian comforted Liang Jian: "I'm fine. I'm unscathed, don't worry."

Xiang Jin did not question him why he was so impulsive. After hearing him say he was fine, he felt relieved. Then he told him to check his body and drink more water.

Liang Jiandu responded one by one.

After hanging up the phone, Liang Jian suddenly thought, maybe this is the difference between Xiang Jin and Hu Xiaoying. Xiang Jin's love is always like this. She fully understands you, understands you, and always gives the most appropriate care at the right time. She never says extra words.

But Hu Xiaoying is different. Perhaps this has something to do with Hu Xiaoying working hard in the officialdom for so many years. Although, in front of Liang Jian, she has always shown a gentle side. However, she is still a strong woman.
