"Didn't she say yesterday that she would take Xiaoxin to the park to play today?"
The woman looked dullly at the Tongzi Tower covered in flames and said in a hoarse voice.
"My mother said she wasn't feeling well this morning and had a headache, so she didn't go to the park. She took some medicine after dinner, and then went back to her room to sleep."
"Xiaoxin clamored for grandma to accompany me, so I let her come in to play..."
Secretary Yang: "......"
He gritted his teeth, pushed his wife away, and ran towards the Tongzi Tower that was engulfed in flames.
However, he was stopped by the fire fighters before he could even run a few steps.
"Secretary Yang, you can't go there now, it's too dangerous."
Secretary Yang struggled and said:
"Let me go. My mother is still in the building. Her legs are weak and she will definitely not be able to escape. I have to save her!"
"Secretary Yang, please calm down. The situation is too dangerous. If you go in, you may not be able to come out."
"Let me save her...let me save her quickly..."
Secretary Yang repeated this sentence repeatedly, with a cry in his voice.
"My mother is still in there, and my daughter is in there too. I must go in. Let me go quickly..."
The fire officers and soldiers looked at Secretary Yang sympathetically.
I sighed silently in my heart.
Although they want to save people.
But such a big fire.
Such thick poisonous smoke.
I'm afraid...
The fire officers and soldiers looked at each other.
They all saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.
One of the fire officers comforted him.
"Our people have entered the building for rescue. Don't worry, we will definitely rescue your family..."
While they were talking, a slender figure rushed past them and plunged into the burning family building without hesitation.
Secretary Yang followed the man's back with his eyes until it was obscured by the flames and could no longer be seen.
He suddenly reacted.
It’s my wife!
His wife rushed in!
Secretary Yang struggled even more excitedly.
The fire officers and soldiers suddenly became nervous.
Several people held Secretary Yang firmly, while several other soldiers wearing simple protective clothing looked at each other and rushed towards the fire.
They may not be able to save the lives of the building residents.
But we must rescue Secretary Yang’s wife.
At this moment, a slightly familiar voice sounded in Secretary Yang’s ears.
"Which floor does your family live on?"
Secretary Yang answered subconsciously.
"Fourth floor..."
"How many doors?"
"403..."
"I will rescue your family, if they are okay..."
Secretary Yang turned his head and looked over.
But he saw nothing.
I just caught a glimpse of a tall figure out of the corner of my eye, and suddenly disappeared into the fire.
"Who is that person? I seem to have seen it..."
While Secretary Yang was grateful, a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
At the same time,.
The firefighters guarding the edge of the fire looked at each other, and their hearts were also full of doubts.
What happened just now?
And...
Why is the helmet in my hand missing?
.......
County Magistrate Ji watched helplessly as Cao Weidong got into the building.
I felt a little panicked.
The fire is so fierce, maybe someone will die!
County Magistrate Ji quickly grabbed a fire officer and said anxiously.
"Comrade, it was my friend who rushed into the fire to save people just now. His name is Cao Weidong. He acted heroically."
"But the fire is so big and he is in danger. Can you send someone to rescue him?"
What!
It’s Cao Weidong!
Other cadres present were a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, a fire broke out in the family building. All the cadres present were indifferent, but only the director of a county-run unit dared to enter the fire scene to save people.
Thinking of their attitude towards Cao Weidong and others just now, they all felt a little ashamed.
The fire officers and soldiers looked at the fire scene and couldn't help but sigh and said.
"We try our best, but the fire is so big and the poisonous smoke is so strong..."
"You... better prepare yourself mentally in advance."
County Magistrate Ji felt dizzy.
.......
Building fire!
This is a life-and-death disaster for everyone who has experienced it.
The high temperature and heat of the flame can cause shock and even death.
Of course, this is not the most dangerous.
What is really deadly is all kinds of poisonous smoke.
In fact, someone has made statistics and found that only one-quarter died directly from the high temperature of the flames, and the remaining three-quarters were killed by poisonous smoke.
This is because many combustible materials or polymer materials are used in buildings. When these materials are burned, they release a large amount of toxic fumes such as carbon monoxide and cyanide. These toxic fumes can cause shock or death.
Although the decoration in this era was simple, the furniture and daily necessities used in the home would also release a large amount of toxic smoke when burned, so the situation was not optimistic.
After Cao Weidong got into the fire scene, he carefully hid in a corner without fire and observed carefully.
Just when he knew Secretary Yang's mother and daughter were still upstairs, a line of text suddenly popped up on the system's virtual screen.
[Ding! Trigger a limited time mission, save the elderly and children in the fire scene, complete the mission and get special rewards!]
【......】
After Cao Weidong saw the system prompt, he made a decision without even looking at the task rewards.
He made up his mind to save people.
Even if there is no mission reward, he still wants to save people.
"Rescuing people in a fire requires risking their lives for others, but for me..."
Cao Weidong put the two fire masks handed over from the fire officers and soldiers into his personal space, then called out to Wanjie Mall and quickly purchased a fire uniform.
The quality of this firefighting suit is excellent.
It can make him not afraid of fire and poisonous smoke for a short period of time.
Cao Weidong quickly dressed up and walked up the stairs.
He had just taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped and carefully hid behind the corridor.
I saw two firefighters carrying a woman downstairs.
The woman drooped her head at this time.
His face was black and blue from the smoke, and he seemed to have fainted.
She is Secretary Yang’s lover.
Watching these people go downstairs, Cao Weidong emerged from his hiding place, and then continued to climb up the stairs gently.
The firefighting suit he is wearing is different from these people. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better not to be seen by these people.
Cao Weidong walked quickly and reached the fourth floor smoothly.
But when he saw the situation here, he couldn't help but frown.
This is a very old-fashioned architectural style.
There are residents on both sides of a long passage, and all residents share a toilet and kitchen.
However, for the convenience of cooking, many people prepare a small stove.
Place it next to the door of your home, with coals, spatulas and other items beside it.
But at this time, these small stoves are equivalent to dangerous biological bombs.
In a relatively sealed and independent space like the corridor, coal emits terrible poisonous gas due to burning, and billowing black smoke fills the corridor, making it difficult to see even one's fingers.
Even though Cao Weidong was wearing a fire mask purchased from Wanjie Mall, he felt dizzy in his head in such an environment.
