Beirut, in the early morning of September 13th, before the sun had time to raise its head above the horizon, the locked garage door banged loudly once again.
Before that, Wei Ran and others had actually woken up, and even the sewing machine and Wei Ran had gotten up in advance to put enough pressure on the kerosene and gas lamps.
They had been awakened by a dull explosion about 10 minutes ago, and were keenly aware that wounded people might be arriving soon.
This time, before Sewing Machine could open the iron door of the garage, everyone heard Nurse Ayub knocking on the door and shouting anxiously, "Mr. Sewing Machine, an unexploded bomb just collapsed a four-story building. There are many buildings."
People are buried inside, we need your ambulance to rush over to support, there are many wounded people there."
As the iron door of the garage was pushed open by sewing machines and sanitary ignition, Nurse Ayub outside the door immediately switched to Arabic to communicate with Rama.
"I have already told Rama the address."
Ayub said hurriedly, "We are going to deal with the injured people who have been brought in. I will leave the scene to you, okay?"
"No problem" the sewing machine responded simply.
At the same time, Edelweiss had already run to the cab of the ambulance and loudly greeted Rama to get in the car.
"I'll drive," Wei Ran said as the other party opened the door.
"Did you take me back to the tent?" Edelweiss asked as she stepped aside.
"I see you're sleeping soundly." Wei Ran got into the cab as he spoke, "Let's get in the car first."
Hearing this, Edelweiss immediately called for Rama to sit in the passenger seat with her, letting the little translator sit on her lap. Almost her front and back legs, sewing machine and cradle also got into the back with Dalal.
In the row of carriages, Ed and Hanward pushed down the door curtains on both sides, and immediately carried the large oil stove that had been packed into the box and got into the carriage.
"How is your driving skill?" Edelweiss asked.
"Fasten your seat belt!" Wei Ran shouted while pressing the start button.
Amidst the roar of the engine, the ambulance rushed out of the garage almost as soon as its dazzling lights came on.
Behind them, Nurse Ayub closed the iron door of the garage for them and immediately ran towards the operating room in a hurry.
"How do we go?"
Wei Ran asked loudly. He had to shout that although the performance of this car was fine, the sound insulation was really the same as no soundproofing.
"Turn left at the intersection ahead!" Rama, who was sitting on Edelweiss' lap, also shouted in response.
"Edelweiss! Here you go!"
At this moment, the cradle in the car behind also handed over a glass jar containing skin care products from the other side of the canvas net full of holes.
Taking the jar of "skin care products", Edelweiss dug out a black paste from it, and first smeared it on Rama's face and neck, who was sitting in his arms, and then smeared it on his own face and neck.
After a while.
"Turn right at the intersection ahead and keep driving." Rama put on a mask while giving directions to Wei Ran who had just turned left, and then buckled on the slightly large steel helmet.
In fact, when the car drove here, Wei Ran had already noticed the people running to the hospital on stretchers, bicycles, or even carrying, carrying, or carrying them.
When these people saw this ambulance with obvious characteristics approaching, they subconsciously gathered around, trying to stop the ambulance and let the people in the car save the injured people they rescued.
"Click"
Edelweiss stretched out his hand to flip a switch that was obviously installed on the panel, then picked up the red microphone hanging next to him and moved it to Rama, "Tell them that we will go to the scene to rescue the more serious injuries, so that we can
They should not stop us and continue to send the wounded to the hospital. The hospital is already ready to receive the wounded."
After speaking, Edelweiss pressed the microphone, and Rama immediately started shouting in Arabic.
Suddenly, the little girl's milky voice came out through the loudspeaker on the roof of the car. As she shouted over and over again, those who originally wanted to stop the car immediately moved out of the way, and Wei Ran also passed.
These people transporting the injured gave invisible guidance and drove the car to the accident scene as quickly as possible.
At this time, the horizon had just turned white. On the ruins of the building, there was a large group of men, women, and children holding homemade torches, flashlights, or crowbars.
Desperately digging through the wreckage, they tried to rescue the compatriots underneath.
"Rama, you four will listen to my command later."
Almost at the same time that Wei Ran parked the car in an open space on the side of the road and turned off the engine, Sewing Machine immediately said, "The four of us need your help, so don't run around."
After saying that, Sewing Machine, Wei Ran and others opened the car doors.
"Rama, let Ed start the generator! Call two more people over to help set up the tent." The cradle distributed the tasks in an orderly manner.
At the same time, Edelweiss also dug out two stacks of injury classification cards and gave one of the packs to the cradle, and then the two of them immediately started working.
Soon, the generator on the front of the car was started smoothly, and Ed stepped on the front bumper of the car and turned the searchlight on the roof to focus on the wreckage of the building where the person was buried.
In less than five minutes, with the help of people around, a medical tent that was large enough to fit the entire ambulance inside was set up at the back of the vehicle.
This tent not only wraps the rear of the emergency vehicle, but also wraps up the bright searchlights at the rear of the vehicle - their angles are just right to form a simple shadowless light.
In the same short period of time, Edelweiss and Cradle, with the help of people around them, used several oil lamps to divide different areas to arrange the lightly and seriously injured.
"I will be responsible for the initial treatment of the injured with fractures and the seriously injured. Sewing machines, you will only be responsible for serious and emergency cases. For minor cases, the people around you will take them to the hospital."
"no problem"
The sewing machine responded simply, and a wounded person was already lying on the simple operating table in front of him.
Wei Ran said and looked at Rama, "Rama, shout with the loudspeaker and ask the people around you to send some wooden boards immediately. It is best to cut them into 30 cm long and 5 cm wide, and wrap a circle of cloth around the outside.
Prepare some strips of cloth. I will use them later, so I need to be quick.
Also, let those with green cards find their own way to the hospital, those with yellow cards have people around them help take them to the hospital, and those with red cards are sent to us."
"good!"
Rama responded quickly, ran out of the newly set up medical tent, got into the cab and started shouting from the loudspeaker on the roof of the car.
At the same time, Wei Ran had already picked up a first aid kit and walked towards a seriously injured person with a red card. After performing the fastest and most preliminary treatment in three strokes, he immediately asked the strong man who came to help him to be sent in.
In the tent.
"Why do you have so much experience?" Edelweiss, who helped him, asked, "You are not much older than me."
"Now is not the time to explain this"
While Wei Ran was speaking, he stopped next to a little girl who looked to be about the same age as Dalal, and spoke faster, "Hold her down, don't let her move, and urge Rama to quickly bring the board over.
."
Before she finished speaking, Edelweiss had subconsciously held down the child lying on the ground. Then her eyes widened and she watched in horror as Wei Ran grabbed the girl's obviously broken arm.
"What are you going to do! She hasn't been anesthetized yet!"
Edelweiss shouted amidst the little girl's screams and struggles.
"Hold her down!"
Wei Ran did not explain at all, and quickly completed the reset of the broken arm. Then he took the first batch of wooden boards and rags that had just been delivered, and helped the girl who had fainted from pain to splint it.
"The treatment is indeed a bit painful, but the advantage is that no surgery is required."
It was only then that Wei Ran explained to Edelweiss, and gave Rama, who had just arrived, some instructions regarding the later stages.
"Why not use anesthesia?" Edelweiss asked after him.
"Easily infected"
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he was already squatting next to the third wounded man. His leg was cut with a huge wound that was deep enough to show the bone.
While Edelweiss was anesthetizing, Wei Ran also opened a bag of physiological saline. After briefly rinsing the wound, he directly covered the wound with a gauze bag. Then he took out a roll of transparent tape and slapped it on
The sound was tightly entwined.
"You really are a vet."
When Edelweiss said this, there was even a hint of fear in her tone.
"He will survive"
Wei Ran walked towards the next wounded person and said, "He can live for at least half an hour longer."
While he was talking, he was already squatting next to a wounded man with a broken thigh, calling to Rama to call a few strong people to hold down the adult male, and then said, "Edelweiss, go and open an extra operating table in the tent.
Well, I am enough here."
Knowing that she seemed unable to keep up with Wei Ran's rhythm, Edelweiss gritted her teeth, turned around and ran into the tent.
At the same time, Rama, who was helping to hold a pile of wooden boards, immediately called a few adult men to come over and hold down the injured. After a while, a shrill and shivering sound was heard again from the side of the accident scene.
Call.
Under the busy work of their medical team, which did not speak the same language, the wounded were gradually shunted away. The little translator Rama even used a loudspeaker to direct the adults to form a stretcher team without any instructions.
Finally, when the sun completely jumped out of the horizon, when the scene no longer needed the halogen headlights on the roof to provide additional lighting, the situation of "the injured waiting on the operating table" finally appeared.
It was not until this moment that Wei Ran took a moment to take a photo of the accident scene before he thought about another thing.
What kind of situation could cause an unexploded bomb to explode suddenly at four or five o'clock in the morning?
And looking at the situation in which the building was blown up, he really couldn't figure out how powerful a bomb was to have such an effect.
Before he could figure out this question that seemed to contain a conspiracy, among the crowd who were still digging and burying, an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with hands already covered with fine scratches, ran over and spoke hurriedly.
Something is said loudly in Arabic.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Rama immediately translated, "He said there is a child stuck under the ruins. He is dying, but there is no way to rescue him now. I hope we can help find a way."
"I'll go." The sewing machine was already taking steps to go out as he spoke.
"It's better for me to go," Wei Ran stopped him, "I'm better at this kind of thing than you."
"I..."
"Someone has to go, so don't argue with me." After Wei Ran finished speaking, he patted his chest towards the old man, and then took a first aid kit.
When the other party saw this, he immediately led him stumbling up the ruins and came to a narrow hole.
The hole between the remains of the floor slabs is in the shape of a relatively safe triangle, but is only big enough for an adult man to climb in.
There are no cranes or excavators, and they rely solely on manpower. The only way they can expand the hole is with a hammer or even a concrete block.
"Mr. Veterinarian, please put on your helmet." Rama, who was following, said, having already taken off the helmet on her head and handed it over.
"Thanks"
Wei Ran did not refuse the other party's kindness. He took the helmet and put it on his head. Then he tied the first aid kit around his neck and crawled into the small triangular hole.
Holding the flashlight, I climbed down for five or six meters at an angle. The entrance became slightly wider. This seemed to be the corner of the corridor. Not far away in the other direction was a collapsed load-bearing wall.
This load-bearing wall has exposed several finger-thick steel bars. The broken parts of the steel bars are like a huge animal trap biting a young man's thighs firmly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This young man looks about the same age as Ed, but at this time there is blood under his body, and his consciousness is not so clear anymore.
.
What's even worse is that through the gap between his legs, which is no more than the size of a fist, he can hear the faint cry of a baby coming from further inside.
He took out a lighter and tried to light it. Seeing that there was enough oxygen here, Wei Ran immediately took off the first aid kit, took out an anesthetic needle from it and inserted it around the two thigh wounds, and then sucked some blood.
"Lama, quickly test his blood and find a smaller person to come in and give him a blood transfusion!" Wei Ran said as he handed out the syringe that had absorbed some blood.
When Rama took the syringe, he immediately took out the wire cutters from the metal book, placed it against the edge of the young man's leg, carefully held a blood-stained steel bar, and then slowly applied force with both hands, as if he was defusing a bomb.
Cut it into two pieces with difficulty.
Because of the language barrier, the only thing he could do was to speed up and start cutting the second steel bar.
What he didn't expect was that when he cut the fourth steel bar, Edelweiss came in with blood transfusion equipment in one hand and a flashlight in the other.
"Why are you here?" Wei Ran looked back and asked.
"My blood type matches his"
While Edelweiss was speaking, she was already sitting in a pool of blood mixed with dust in a girl's unique duck-sitting posture. She quickly disinfected the blood vessels in her arm and then inserted the needle.
By the time the blood flowed into the child's veins, Wei Ran had already cut the sixth steel bar.
"One more leg"
As Wei Ran spoke, he stretched the blood-stained wire cutters into the gap at the edge of his other leg. In a particularly awkward posture, he almost used his helmet against the stubble of the steel bar as a support, and pressed the handle of the wire cutters with his chest.
Assist in exerting force.
With difficulty, Wei Ran cut off a steel bar again. Wei Ran looked back at Edelweiss, who was using a flashlight to provide lighting for him. He did not dare to waste time and moved the wire cutters to the next steel bar.
Under his operation, the steel bars were cut one after another, and the child seemed to be in better spirits because of the blood transfusion.
"No more blood transfusions"
While Wei Ran was speaking, he had already helped Edelweiss and the child take out the blood transfusion needles, "Send him out now and let others give him blood transfusions."
"I..."
"If you fall, we will lose a medical staff member." Wei Ran reminded.
Hearing this, the slightly pale Edelweiss nodded, pressed the needle hole with the dressing prepared in advance, let Wei Ran help her up, and climbed out alone with difficulty to make room.
"Be patient"
Wei Ran murmured something to himself, carefully dragged the young man's shoulders, and pulled him out of the narrow gap amidst his feeble screams.
He didn't dare to pull out the steel bars that were still tied to his legs. Wei Ran only tied him up briefly to stop the bleeding and immediately sent him out.
"There are people inside"
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he went back in and roughly used wire cutters to clean up the remaining steel bars.
Wei Ran stuck his head in with difficulty, and looked to the side of the corner. It seemed to be a single bed that had been pressed against the end of the bed by a collapsed floor, so that the head of the bed was tilted up, almost at a 45-degree angle with the floor.
The upturned end of the single bed was firmly against the remaining wall, and the female body lying on the bed was almost caught between the bed board and the collapsed floor.
And the crying sound seemed to come from the other side of the female corpse.
Unfortunately, although Wei Ran could see the situation inside, the gap was too small for him. He couldn't get in at all, and he couldn't reach the single bed two meters away.
Edelweiss, who has a pretty figure, may be able to squeeze in, but with her height of less than 1.7 meters, she may not be able to reach the child hidden on the other side of the body even if she stands on tiptoe.
What's more, she had just completed the blood transfusion, and her physical strength might not be able to keep up. After all, no one knew whether the baby was also stuck inside.
"I need help from someone who is similar in stature to Edelweiss but taller."
Wei Ran decisively withdrew and asked for help outside, "It's better to be thinner than Edelweiss. There is a baby in here. Someone needs to climb in and take him out. I can't get in."
Soon, a shirtless young man wearing only a pair of shorts walked in - it was Ed!
Although this young man is 16 years old, he is indeed similar in stature to Edelweiss, and he is tall enough.
However, what Wei Ran didn't expect was that there was Rama behind the child! Rama still had a Polaroid camera hanging around his neck!
"I'll be the interpreter," Rama said before Wei Ran could speak.
Hearing this, Wei Ran nodded, pointed to the small hole next to the pool of blood and said, "Ed needs to get in from inside. There is an upturned single bed there, and the baby is on the bed, but the specific situation depends on
Less than.”
When Rama translated this to her brother Ed, the latter did not hesitate to lie down and crawl through the narrow gap with remaining blood stains.
Soon, Ed said something in Arabic, and Rama immediately took off the Polaroid from his neck and handed it over.
"He said the situation inside was a bit complicated."
Before Rama could finish his words, a flash light came on inside, and soon after, the Polaroid that was spitting out photos was also sent back.
Smart siblings!
While Wei Ran secretly admired it, he reached out and took the photo handed over by Rama.
After waiting for a while, Wei Ran couldn't help but frown as the photo developed.
The woman was lying on her side on the bed, her hands on the baby's body, almost completely protecting her in her arms.
He could almost imagine that in the moment after the explosion and before the collapse, this great mother chose to use her own body to protect her child in a critical moment.
She did protect her child with her life, but after the floor pressed against her body, her child was also imprisoned by her arms with its tiny neck.
Almost subconsciously, Wei Ran came up with the idea of cutting open the young mother's shoulder joint.
This is the simplest and easiest method to implement, but...
Wei Ran couldn't help but secretly glance at Rama, who looked anxious. Once this method was revealed, would it be too cruel to the young Rama and the equally young Ed inside?
But...
Wei Ran sighed secretly, they seemed to have no choice at this time.
"here"
Wei Ran pointed to the shoulder joint of the female corpse in the photo, "Cut it from here. This is the only way."
Hearing this, Lama obviously panicked, but soon, this strong little girl took the homemade choke wire from Wei Ran, translated the treatment method to Ed inside, and then put the choke wire and the choke wire together.
The marked photos were handed back together.
Soon, a tiny crackling noise like sawing wood was heard in the small space when the neck wire was pulled repeatedly.
After a slightly long wait, the baby's cry seemed to be a little clearer, and Wei Ran and Rama couldn't help but look forward to it on their faces.
"Boom!"
But at this moment, a muffled sound that made the feet tremble and Ed's scream came from the narrow gap!
After a brief moment of sluggishness, Rama screamed and was about to climb in, but then Wei Ran grabbed his arm.
"Let me go!" Rama subconsciously screamed in Arabic, and then changed to French that Wei Ran could understand.
"I'll go take a look first."
Wei Ran easily pulled the little girl behind him, then he lay down and stuck his head into the hole to look inside.
In the steaming smoke, the beam of the flashlight took on a solid shape, but where the beam was focused, he discovered that the single bed and even part of the floor on which the single bed was pressed had collapsed - most of Ed's body had collapsed.
My body was pressed under that bed.
At his feet, Wei Ran could still see two bed boards that seemed to have just been sawed off. He could clearly see that the arms of the woman's body on the bed had not been sawed off.
Obviously, Ed chose a more troublesome, more humane, and also more dangerous method - he chose to saw off the bed board under the baby, and then took out the tightly imprisoned baby.
The 16-year-old boy did succeed. The baby was held firmly by his hands, but his hips and entire lower body were pressed by the bed and floor.
"Rama"
When Ed saw Wei Ran, a bright smile appeared on his face, but as he raised the corners of his mouth, a large amount of blood poured out.
Sighing secretly, Wei Ran withdrew and gave up the entrance of the cave to the crying Rama. He himself trembled and shouted outside that he needed a jack - it was just in vain. Even if there was a jack, there was no way to pull it out.
Ed was rescued.
"What's going on inside?!" Edelweiss shouted outside the cave entrance. After a moment, she personally sent a greasy jack in.
"Ed was suppressed, he..."
When Wei Ran took the jack, the bright light of the flash light also lit up in the narrow hole again and again.
"He...I'm afraid he can't be saved."
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he didn't dare to look at the pale Edelweiss, turned around and moved to the entrance of the cave again.
After a while, Rama crawled back with tears in her eyes - she was still holding the small, unharmed baby and the Polaroid camera in her arms.
"Veterinarian, can..."
Rama sniffed, wiped away his tears and asked sobbing, "Can you kill my brother immediately?
He knew he wasn't going to survive, and he said he was in too much pain, please, vet, no, Mr. Dongfeng, hurry up and find a way to kill my brother Ed, he was in so much pain."
"Take them out," Wei Ran said, throwing away the jack in his hand with a clang.
The dull crashing sound made Rama shiver and also made Edelweiss shiver.
Perhaps only a few long seconds later, Edelweiss took a deep breath, took the little baby, and gently pushed Rama to crawl out of the cave entrance.
"I'm sorry, I hurt you."
Wei Ran murmured softly, and a titanium alloy pistol with a silencer appeared in his hand.
Wei Ran put his head and one hand back into the small hole, and tremblingly raised the weapon in his hand, aiming it at the man who was lying on his back, with his hands folded on his chest, and seemed to be chanting with difficulty in Arabic.
Some kind of hero gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger.
"Snapped!"
Amidst the weak gunfire suppressed by the silencer, a bullet hole appeared in Ed's head, and a hot bullet shell also jumped out, hit the collapsed wall, and hit him in the face, shattering his heart.
It was hot and he was whipped hard.
"I killed my own people again, and my children again."
Wei Ran murmured to himself, and a strange smile of madness and collapse appeared on his face. Even the pistol in his hand, which was still filled with smoke, was pressed against his own chin.
However, just when he was about to pull the trigger, someone grabbed one of his legs and dragged him out with extra difficulty.
"If you fall, we will lose one medical staff member."
The pale-faced Edelweiss said calmly, while grabbing the guard-burning pistol, gently opening his hand, throwing away the gun that had just killed the person, and then pulled him up and hugged him.
In his arms. "Moreover, not only does the operating room need Mr. Veterinarian, we also need Mr. Dongfeng's protection."
"I killed Ed," Wei Ran said vaguely.
"Rama asked me to tell you"
Edelweiss, who held Wei Ran tightly in her arms, whispered into his ear very gently, "She said, Ed is a warrior, and that's what he should do. He doesn't blame you, and she doesn't blame you either."
