The small square.
The atmosphere is tense.
Wang Yuling asked anxiously. "Director, what should we do now?"
Dong Xuebing was more anxious than Wang Yuling, but he cannot panic now. He said. "Our street had prepared beforehand, and it should be the area with the least amount of damage. Yuling, other than leaving some men behind, you go and gather a group of people to the district and other streets. Also, inform Guangming Park's Secretary Geng and Chief Zhou. Do as I said and extend the rescue to the whole Nanshan district!"
"Then you …"
"I will go to the district! I will leave this place to you all! "
"But Director, we …"
Dong Xuebing did not even say a word. He picked up his bicycle and rode towards the direction of the District Committee. His speed was so fast that he had used all his strength. The newspaper from the future that he had created with FORWARD only reported about the disaster in Guangming Street. That's why Dong Xuebing could make such detailed arrangements based on the newspaper. But Dong Xuebing does not know about the situation in the district and other places. He thought the District Committee's building should be able to withstand the earthquake, and Geng Yuehua should not be in danger. But who knew something unexpected would happen, and a fire broke out. If Dong Xuebing knew this would happen, he would have brought Geng Yuehua out from the District Committee's building! But it's too late now! It's useless to say anything!
Yuehua!
You must be alright!
Wait for me! I will be there soon!
Dong Xuebing started to get anxious when his men are not around. He quickly rode his bike out of the brightly lit street. The roads are not easy to travel on. It's hard to even walk. Sometimes, Dong Xuebing had to climb over potholes and even climb over half-meter deep fissures on the ground with his bicycle.
The surroundings were filled with boundless ruins.
This is the first time Dong Xuebing left Guangming Street to see the situation in other places after the earthquake. Dong Xuebing's heart skipped a beat!
Terrible!
It's too terrible!
There are corpses by the roadside, and the collapsed houses are covered in blood!
The families of those who lost their loved ones are crying, and some are looking at the sky in a daze.
Dong Xuebing shouted as he rode on. "Go to the shelters in your streets! Go to the open area! It's dangerous here! Hurry! Don't stay here for long! You can come back anytime! " The tragic scenes made Dong Xuebing more determined. Their street had not found any casualties, and it's fortunate. But compared to other streets, it's not so optimistic. There are victims everywhere, and Dong Xuebing's street should do its part to extend the rescue efforts to other streets. This is the responsibility and obligation of a public servant.
The further they went, the more casualties there were.
Some corpses were strewn across the streets, while others were crushed to death by billboards. Blood dripped from the cars.
Dong Xuebing's heart skipped a beat when he saw Geng Yuehua. When he thought about Geng Yuehua's condition, he got even more anxious and stomped even faster.
District Committee Compound.
Flames soared into the sky, and the raging fire turned the entire district government office into a sea of fire. Screams could be heard everywhere!
"Put out the fire! Put out the fire! "
"He can't be saved! The temperature is too high! "
"Where's the fire department? Where's the fire truck? "
"It's still five kilometers away! I can't get in! The road is blocked! "
From afar, it could be seen that the government office building had collapsed a little due to the earthquake. The entire building was tilted, and the glass was shattered. The fire had already reached the third floor, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. The fire was still engulfing the building at a rapid speed, and thick smoke was roaring in the sky!
Outside the compound.
District Party Secretary Wang Anshi, Executive Deputy District Mayor Shen Fei, and other leaders are all there. There are also a few County's Party Committee and County Government staff around them.
Shen Fei's face is covered in black smoke. He had also run out of the fire. "Mayor Yuehua is still inside! Quick, think of a way! "
Wang Anshi shouted angrily. "Why didn't you bring Mayor Geng out earlier?!"
Ma Li, whose hair was burnt, replied. "I didn't see Mayor Geng when I came out. It's too late to look for him!"
"How many people are still inside?" Wang Anshi asked.
"There should be more than a dozen of them. Including our rescuers, there are more than twenty!"
"Hurry up and contact them again! Get the fire department here now! "Wang Anshi shouted.
Everyone looked at the District Government Office Building anxiously.
At the moment of the earthquake, most of the cadres and staff had escaped. The District Government Office Building's earthquake-resistant structure was quite good, but when many people came out, they found that the District Government Office Building had an accident. The building almost collapsed, and many staff and cadres were trapped inside. Wang Anshi and Geng Yuehua immediately gave the order to save people and sent out a rescue team. Geng Yuehua disregarded everyone's attempts to stop her and joined in with Shen Fei, Ma Li, and the others. They rescued the trapped and injured staff one by one. But at this moment, an accident happened. There was a sudden explosion on the first floor, and the fire spread to the entire floor. When Shen Fei, Ma Li, and the others saw this, they wanted to run out, but they couldn't find Mayor Yuehua. She might have already gone upstairs, and if they were a step late, they wouldn't be able to get out. Shen Fei and the others could only run out with the injured. But when they wanted to go back to save Geng Yuehua and the others, the fire had already spread, and they couldn't even enter the office building.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger.
If they rushed in to save people now, it would be suicide.
No one could do anything but watch the fire continue to spread.
Dong Xuebing rushed over and saw a few people lying on the ground from a few meters away. They had died a long time ago, and all of them were the staff members Dong Xuebing had met at the District Party Committee Compound. On the other side, there were more than a dozen injured people lying on the ground not far from the compound. A few staff members were taking care of them. Some of these people had broken arms, legs, and some were badly burned. All of them were seriously injured.
Dong Xuebing got anxious and ran over to the building. "Where are the people?! Where are the trapped people?! Who are the people inside?! "
Everyone saw Dong Xuebing, and their expressions were complicated.
But everyone knows this is not the time to talk about other things.
Secretary Ma Li was about to cry. "There are more than twenty people trapped inside! We don't know how many of them are still alive! Mayor Yuehua is also inside! "
"The fire brigade can't reach us!"
"There's no other way now! We're finished! "
Dong Xuebing's face changed as he looked at the fire.
Geng Yuehua is also inside! Geng Yuehua is also inside! Dong Xuebing's mind is blank!
Suddenly, Geng Xinke and two staff from Guangming Street Office arrived on their bicycles. "Where is my sister? Where is my sister? "Geng Xinke had heard the announcement and rushed over.
Ma Li looks at Geng Xinke and points to the burning building. Tears were rolling down her cheeks.
The building was almost charred, and the five floors of stairs were deformed!
"Sister!" Geng Xinke saw the fire and staggered. The staff from the Street Office quickly helped him up.
Everyone felt bad. When the earthquake happened, Mayor Yuehua risked her life to enter the office building to save people, regardless of her own safety. This won the respect of many people. Even the people of the Wang Family, even Wang Anshi, did not want anything to happen to Geng Yuehua.
But now, the fire brigade cannot reach them, and they do not have any equipment to extinguish the fire …
Just when everyone felt helpless, Dong Xuebing stared coldly at the office building and ran towards it!
Shen Fei was shocked. "Xiao Dong!"
"Dong Xuebing!" Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Wu Liang shouted.
"Chief Dong!" Everyone knew Geng Yuehua and the rest could not be saved.
Dong Xuebing ignored them and ran to the front of the building. He saw a burning window and jumped into the fire under everyone's shocked gaze. His shirt was burnt by the fire!
STOP！
The fire stopped!
The burning flame stopped in mid-air!
Dong Xuebing is worried about Geng Yuehua's safety and does not know if she is alive or dead. He ran towards the staircase nervously!
But Dong Xuebing was furious when he saw the stairs were gone!
The first floor had collapsed! The stairs had collapsed! There was no way for him to go up!
Dong Xuebing looked for a long time but could not find the way up. He got impatient and used STOP. He stood at a place where the fire was not as strong and shouted. "Mayor Geng! Mayor Geng! "
No one answered him.
Only thick smoke and fire answered Dong Xuebing!
Dong Xuebing could not hold on any longer. He felt dizzy after inhaling two puffs of smoke. He covered his head and jumped out of the window!
"Xiao Dong is out!"
"Come back!"
"Don't go! It's dangerous! "
Someone shouted from outside.
But Dong Xuebing had no intention to leave. He stood in the courtyard and looked at the burning building. His eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was broken!
Yuehua!
Yuehua!
Suddenly, someone shouted from the crowd outside.
"Look up!"
"There are people on the roof! There are people on the roof! "
"It's Mayor Yuehua!"
"There are people from the Government Office! It's them! "
"They are still alive!"
Dong Xuebing heard what Geng Yuehua said and quickly ran back. He raised his head and saw the scene on the roof of the government office building. Thick black smoke billowed out, and Geng Yuehua was supporting an injured staff member. She was looking at them from the roof, and there were five to six staff members and leaders who had escaped death. They were standing alone on the roof, and a few female staff members were crying and shouting at the people below.
"Save us!"
"The fire is burning!"
"Help!"
Geng Yuehua did not say anything. She looked down and closed her eyes.
Wang Anshi, Ma Li, and the rest were shocked. There are still people alive, and this is good news. But to save them? How are they going to save them?!
