There was an earthquake in Sichuan, and it was the city where Xiaobai was located!
Zhang Tan suddenly understood what was causing the palpitation just now. It couldn't be because of Xiaobai, right??!!
He quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed Xiaobai's number, but the phone said that the phone could not be connected.
Unable to connect!
Zhang Tan, who had been lucky, immediately panicked, and the hand holding the phone was trembling slightly.
Su Lan held it and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Tan took a deep breath to ease the tension in his heart. Being nervous at this time was of no use.
"Xiaobai is in Sichuan. The call just didn't go through, and it said it couldn't be connected," he said.
Su Lan suddenly realized that she knew that Zhang Tan and Xiaobai had a good relationship. Now that she heard that there was an earthquake in Sichuan, and then Xiaobai's phone call could not be reached, she was definitely worried.
She held Zhang Tan's hand tightly and said softly: "Try calling her aunt."
Zhang Tan immediately found Malanhua's mobile phone number and dialed it, but the voice from the other side made his heart sink further.
"The number you dialed cannot be reached!"
Su Lan added: "Where is Xiaobai's house in Sichuan? Although it was an earthquake in Sichuan, there is always a range. I will check online."
Zhang Tan waved his hand: "No need to check. The place where the earthquake occurred is where Xiaobai is. The only consolation is that Xiaobai is in a village. I don't know if he was affected by the earthquake."
Su Lan said: "It will definitely not be affected."
"But the call didn't go through."
Su Lan didn't know what to say.
Zhang Tan said to her: "You should rest first. I'll go back first and think of a solution later."
After saying that, he turned around and left. There were footsteps behind him, and it was Su Lan who was following.
Su Lan said: "This is how I can calm down and rest. I'm with you. Don't worry, I'm here."
Zhang Tan forced a smile and strode away. Su Lan jogged a few times, followed him, stretched out her hand, and took the initiative to hold him.
She felt Zhang Tan's hands were still trembling.
On the way back, Zhang Tan kept talking on the phone, and Su Lan was also busy surfing the Internet on her mobile phone to learn about the earthquake situation in Sichuan in real time.
The earthquake occurred at 9:15 tonight, with a magnitude of 5.6. The epicenter was in a county under the jurisdiction of a prefecture-level city.
Su Lan just heard Zhang Tan say that Xiaobai's hometown falls under the jurisdiction of this county.
There are not many reports on the earthquake scene on the Internet. It is night now, the earthquake has just occurred, and there may be aftershocks, so reporters and rescue workers did not arrive so quickly.
However, many people living in the county sent news reports that they were safe. The strong earthquake could be felt in the county. Apart from the collapse of some old houses, there was no major damage.
As he learned more, Zhang Tan went home and checked on his computer, and became even more worried because the epicenter was too close to Xiaobai's town.
He did not tell other people in the Little Red Horse Academy that the children were still happily chatting, watching TV and drawing.
Aunt Huang reacted first and came to his house worriedly, telling him that an earthquake had occurred in Sichuan, and that the scope of the earthquake included Xiaobai's home.
Zhang Tan welcomed her in without saying anything. Aunt Huang was stunned when she saw Su Lan in the living room, then smiled and said hello.
After Zhang Tan closed the door, he said that Xiaobai and Malanhua's phone calls could not be reached.
"I'm going to fly to Chengdu now." Zhang Tan said.
Aunt Huang and Su Lan at home both looked at him.
Su Lan opened her mouth, but no words came out.
"Now?" Aunt Huang asked, "If we don't wait, the mobile phone signal will be affected after the earthquake."
Zhang Tan shook his head.
"I want to bring Xiaobai back."
During the intense palpitations just now, he felt that Xiaobai was calling him. She must need him very much now.
He went back to his room to pack his things and was leaving now.
Aunt Huang followed up and said, "Zhang Tan, don't be anxious, you need to calm down at this time."
Su Lan said: "Aunt Huang, let him go. Don't worry, I will go with him and I will take good care of him."
When Aunt Huang and Zhang Tan heard this, they both looked at her.
Su Lan smiled at Zhang Tan and said, "I'll go with you."
Zhang Tan stared at her and said, "Don't go."
Su Lan: "I won't stop you if you go, but I must follow you, otherwise I won't worry."
When Aunt Huang saw this, the two of them had decided to leave, so she did not persuade them anymore, but gave them some instructions.
"I will take good care of the little red horse. Don't worry. It's important to find someone, but your own safety is more important..."
Zhang Tan packed up his things quickly, and Su Lan took advantage of this time to book a flight ticket online. He flew to Chengdu at 11 o'clock in the evening and arrived there at 2 o'clock in the morning.
There is still more than 200 kilometers to go from Chengdu to Xiaobai's township.
"Pay attention to safety, Zhang Tan." Aunt Huang followed them out and kept reminding them.
"Goodbye~~~"
Suddenly, Guawazi's little milky voice came from behind. Looking back, it was Xi'er and Liuliu standing at the door of the classroom, smiling and waving to them.
When these two children saw that Boss Zhang and his fat female friend were going out, they ran out to say goodbye. In fact, they didn't know anything.
Good sign!
The little magpie took the initiative to say goodbye, instead of the more common farewell, that means we can see each other again!
Zhang Tan waved to them and drove to the airport with Su Lan.
Aunt Huang worriedly watched the car disappear into the night. Lao Li, who was guarding the guard box, saw this and came out to take a look at the road in the distance and asked: "What's wrong? Why did I see Zhang Tan carrying a bag? It was so late at night."
Where to go?”
Aunt Huang sighed and said, "There has just been an earthquake in Sichuan. Zhang Tan is looking for someone at Xiaobai's house."
Lao Li opened his mouth wide in surprise, what a coincidence!
He likes to listen to the radio and has already learned about the earthquake from the radio, but he only knows that Xiaobai is a Sichuan boy and does not know where her home is.
Zhang Tan drove, Su Lan sat in the passenger seat, and the car sped on the road, heading for the airport.
Su Lan was still on the phone, asking for leave to explain to Zhou Li.
Her original plan was to fly to Peiping tomorrow. The New Year holiday was over and it was time to work. But now she and Zhang Tan were rushing to Sichuan. They would definitely not be able to go to Peiping tomorrow. As for when she would be able to come back, she didn't know.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "My aunt, what is it that prevents you from coming? Our schedule has been arranged and we are waiting for you." On the phone, Zhou said
Li said eagerly. The activities on the first day after the Spring Festival were all very important. Su Lan suddenly said she couldn't come, which caught her off guard. The key was that the aunt didn't say what happened.
Su Lan did not dare to say that she would go to Sichuan. If she said so, Zhou Li would be even more worried or even strongly opposed.
She just said that there was something very important and she wanted to find an excuse, but she couldn't think of a suitable one at the moment. It would be great if Yang Zhu was around. That guy is very good at making up excuses.
But her attitude made Zhou Li think that she was perfunctory with her, and she was so angry that she said harshly that if she didn't see anyone tomorrow, she shouldn't look for her in the future.
Zhang Tan listened to the content of Su Lan's phone call. He asked tentatively: "Su Su, why don't you go along? We will arrive in Chengdu tomorrow. The earthquake is over. There won't be any danger. Don't worry.
Bar."
Su Lan said: "Then you don't want to go either."
"That won't work, I want to bring Xiaobai back."
"I want to bring you back too."
Zhang Tan decided not to say anything about asking her to go back. He asked, "Why don't you and Zhou Li speak clearly so that she won't worry."
"Don't worry, Sister Li is very sharp-tongued. She can speak harsh words better than anyone else. Besides, I have a way."
She called Yang Zhu's number and asked Yang Zhu to think of a solution for her.
When Yang Zhu heard that her sister Su Su was rushing to Sichuan, she exclaimed: "Oh my God, sister Su Su, what do you think? Come back quickly and don't leave me behind."
Su Lan: "I'll go with Zhang Tan."
Do you want to elope? Yang Zhu thought to himself, of course, he only dared to think in his mind and did not dare to ask.
"Sister Su Su, are you going??" Yang Zhu asked.
Su Lan said that Xiaobai's home was in the earthquake area and she was looking for Xiaobai this time. Yang Zhu thought about it and remembered who Xiaobai was. Isn't she the little girl from Little Red Horse Academy who talks like Trump?
.
She was still thinking, and Su Lan said again: "Think of a way quickly... Forget it, you think about it yourself. Once you have thought about it, just explain it to Sister Li. I don't care."
After saying that, she hung up the phone. Needless to say, Zhang Tan called Xiaobai and Ma Lanhua's mobile phones again, but they still couldn't connect.
The two arrived at the airport, took a short rest, and took the flight to leave.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, the two landed in Chengdu, chartered a taxi, and rushed directly to the county seat without stopping.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, the taxi was stopped on the road. Due to the earthquake, the road ahead was blocked. The traffic police were maintaining order and were giving priority to rescue vehicles to pass. No public vehicles were allowed to enter.
Zhang Tan and Su Lan had no choice but to return to the prefecture-level city. It was already 5 o'clock in the morning, the sky was slightly dim, and Su Lan next to them yawned, and Zhang Tan felt tired.
He and Su Lan checked into the hotel and were ready to take a rest. They were obviously very tired, but their spirits were high. Zhang Tan woke up after less than two hours of sleep and could not sleep again.
He went online to learn about the latest situation of the earthquake. At this time, there were a lot of live news and pictures on the Internet. The town was almost destroyed, with cracks on the road, collapsed houses, and landslides in the mountains and forests.
We don't know the casualties yet, but we don't expect it to be optimistic. It's the Spring Festival holiday and it's evening, so everyone is at home.
The more Zhang Tan looked at it, the more anxious he became, wishing he could fly there now. At this moment, the cell phone ringtone suddenly rang in the room. He was excited and quickly picked up the phone. The screen was black and there was no incoming call. The sound came from the bedside table, where it was placed.
It's Su Lan's cell phone.
Su Lan was sleeping with her clothes on. When she heard the ringtone, she woke up immediately, picked up her phone and turned off the alarm clock.
It wasn't a call, it was the alarm clock she set.
She guessed that Zhang Tan would be unable to sleep, and was worried that she would oversleep, so she set an alarm clock for two hours to wake herself up.
When she saw Zhang Tan sitting at the desk, she said to herself that it was indeed a good thing that she had set the alarm clock, otherwise she would not have known that Zhang Tan had left her and entered the disaster area alone.
"Why did you wake up?" she asked sleepily.
"I can't sleep anymore, please sleep a little longer."
Su Lan yawned and sat up from the bed: "I can't sleep anymore. Do you have any plans? How about we rent a car and go take a look."
"Okay." Zhang Tan responded immediately, then realized what was happening, walked to the bed, touched her head, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Su Lan had a strange look on her face. It was the first time a man touched her head! She was not a novice who could bite, but she was not like Xi'er, a kitten who liked to be tickled.
