Noon.
District Committee Compound.
The District Government Office Building was on fire, and the flames were overwhelming!
On the roof of the five-story building, Mayor Yuehua and six members of the district government were trapped. They couldn't go up or go down!
"Help!"
"Where is the fire truck? Where is the fire truck? "
"Quick, save us! The fire is coming! "
"Help! Ah! Help! "
Everyone's faces were ashen. The high temperature of the wall under their feet almost melted their shoes. Breathing in the thick smoke made them dizzy. They were on the verge of death. These people had all escaped from the fire. When the fire broke out, everyone was still on the fourth floor. When the fire broke out, everyone was still on the fourth floor. The fire started suddenly and caused some cracks. The entire staircase from the first to the third floor collapsed. Everyone ran upstairs desperately. The fire was hot on their heels. Originally, there were more than twenty people in the group, but now there were only seven or eight people left. The others were all burned to death. It was not easy for them to run to the roof under the calm leadership of Mayor Yuehua, but they fell into a dead end again. All they could do was delay some time to survive, but there was no way to really get out of danger. The fire was about to reach the roof.
The people on the rooftop were crying for help, their throats cracking from all the shouting.
Geng Xinke screamed. "Sis! Sis! "He was about to run into the compound.
Shen Fei, who was beside him, pulled him back and did not let him go.
Geng Yuehua looked out of the compound and did not say anything.
Ma Li was panicking and shouted upstairs. "The fire truck is not here yet! They can't get in! The road is blocked! "
Wang Anshi pushed past a staff member holding a loudspeaker and switched it on. "Hold on a little longer! The fire truck is almost here! Hold on for a little longer! "
The people on the second floor knew what is going on.
A female staff member fell to the ground crying, and the rest of them are in despair.
Hold on? How much longer can they hold on? The fire will reach the roof in a few more minutes! At that time, all of them will die! They can't even hold on for 5 minutes!
Dong Xuebing, who was downstairs, had no choice but to look at them. Even STOP is useless, and he can't go up and save them!
Is this the end?
Yuehua is going to die here?
Dong Xuebing's lungs are about to explode, and his eyes are bloodshot!
Geng Yuehua looked down at Dong Xuebing and finally said. Don't stand in the courtyard! Get out! This place is going to collapse at any time! "
Dong Xuebing did not move and looked up.
"Xiao Dong!" Geng Yuehua was furious and stared at Dong Xuebing coldly. "Can't you hear me? Leave this place! "
The fire had already burned to the fourth floor, and it was still spreading at a rapid speed. The structure of the building had been burned into a mess. Coupled with the damage caused by the earthquake, the government office building was in danger of collapsing at any moment! Now, Dong Xuebing is the only one standing in the building. If the building collapses, he will not survive! The safest way was to stand outside the district committee like Wang Anshi and the others!
Someone shouted from outside the courtyard.
"Chief Dong! Come out first! "
"Xiao Dong! Come here! "
"Danger, Chief Dong!"
But Dong Xuebing ignored her and looked at the roof without saying a word.
Is there no other way?
Is there really no other way?
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing had an idea. He turned around and shouted. "Do you have cushions? Is there anything that can ease the impact? Bring it over! Go and look for it! "
Geng Xinke's body tensed up. "That's right! Cushions! Cushions! "
Wang Anshi quickly said. "Go and look for it! Ask them to jump down! Get something from the ground to catch it! As long as it can ease the impact, bring it over! Quick! "
Everyone woke up and ran in all directions!
When the people on the rooftop heard this, they also saw a glimmer of hope, and all of them revealed looks of joy.
That's right. As long as there are enough cushions, they can jump down and have a chance to survive.
However, after the earthquake, the District Committee Compound was already cut off from supplies. Traffic was blocked, and transportation could not get in. Some of the buildings had collapsed, and people could not even get in, let alone find an air cushion. It was already good enough to find a few soft cushions.
Dong Xuebing rushed into an open car and looked around. He pulled the seat cushions out of the car and ran to another car. The car door was locked, and Dong Xuebing knocked on the car window with his elbow. After knocking a few times, Dong Xuebing broke the window and climbed into the car to take out the seat cushions. He carried them back downstairs and lay them flat on the floor.
Geng Xinke, Ma Li, and the rest ran over.
"Chief Dong! Quick! Here! "Geng Xinke also took out some car cushions.
Ma Li was also carrying a pile of clothes. Everyone had taken off their clothes and threw them on the ground. She quickly spread them out with Geng Xinke, Dong Xuebing, and the rest.
The building was relatively high. Due to air resistance and wind speed, they would not fall in a straight line after jumping down. There would definitely be a certain deviation. Therefore, when they laid out the cushions, it was impossible for them to gather in one place. They could only spread them out and expand the area of the temporary rescue cushion by a lot. The cushions and clothes were not enough to begin with, and after spreading them out, it became even worse. They barely managed to lay out a thin layer of cushions!
Dong Xuebing panicked. "Hurry up! It's not enough! It's not enough! "
Everyone looked at the fire getting bigger and started searching again. But in the end, they only managed to find some cushions, and it's not enough.
Looking at the large layer of cushions on the ground that did not hurt or itch, even a fool would know that this was far from enough. That was a five-story building. This kind of cushion would not be able to hold it at all!
"No! It's still not enough!"
"What should we do? There's nothing left! "
"Should we go outside and search?"
"No! It's too late! We can't make it in time! "
Everyone turned to look at the government office building. The fire had reached the fifth floor, and an office on the fifth floor exploded. Even the windows outside the office were broken, and pieces of chairs and tables flew out and fell to the ground. Dong Xuebing, who was downstairs, was almost hit. The situation is about to explode, and there are no more than two minutes left!
The people upstairs started screaming.
"Ah! The fire is burning! "
"It's so hot! Help! "
"I don't want to die! Ah! I don't want to die! "
Some of the female staff had broken down and shouted at the top of their lungs. But it's useless!
Tears welled up in the eyes of the people outside the building. Some clenched their fists, and some gritted their teeth. But there's nothing they can do to help!
It's over!
All these people are finished!
No one thinks they can be saved!
Geng Xinke was furious and wanted to rush into the fire to save his sister. But Dong Xuebing grabbed him from behind. "Secretary Geng! Go back now! "
"My sister is still upstairs! How can I go back?! "
"I asked you to go back now! I will save your sister! "
"How are you going to save her? It's too late! "
"I said I can save her, and that means I can! Go outside! Don't give me more trouble! "
Ma Li and a few other staff members were afraid that Geng Xinke would die, so they immediately grabbed him by the arms and dragged him out.
"Chief Dong! You go too! "Ma Li shouted.
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and waved his hand. "You all go. Don't worry about me!"
"But …"
"Get out of here!"
The situation is critical!
No one knows what Dong Xuebing is thinking, and they only saw him unbuttoning his shirt. In the blink of an eye, he took off his blood-stained shirt and threw it on the thin cushion.
Then, Dong Xuebing looked up and shouted. "Jump!"
Everyone was stunned. Jump? Jump down?
This is not the third floor. It's the fifth floor! Also, the height of the roof is too high! It's equivalent to jumping down from the sixth floor! How can those cushions and clothes support the fall? They will also die if they jump!
"Xiao Dong! What are you doing?! "
"Don't jump! There are not enough cushions! "
Dong Xuebing ignored the shouting outside and stared at the top of the building. "I will say it one more time! All of you, jump down! Jump towards the cushions! "
A female staff member lowered her head and looked downstairs. Her body immediately trembled, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes. "No! It's too high! No! "
Dong Xuebing scolded. "Why are you talking so much nonsense?! I asked you to jump, and you must jump! "
Geng Yuehua shouted. "Xiao Dong!"
"Mayor Yuehua." Dong Xuebing looked at her in her eyes. "If you trust me, ask them to jump down one by one! Don't worry! They will be fine! I promise! "
Nothing will happen to them?
Nothing will happen to them if they jump down from the sixth floor?
No one knows what Dong Xuebing is trying to say!
But at this time, the flames had already spread to the top floor. The female staff member who was standing at the edge and looking down felt the heat on her feet. She lost her balance and sprained her ankle. She immediately screamed and fell from the top of the smoking building. She screamed non-stop in mid-air!
"She is falling down!"
"Ah! Shit! "
Everyone's nerves tensed up, and their faces turned green!
Only Dong Xuebing stepped on the thin cushion calmly. Before everyone knew what Dong Xuebing was going to do, Dong Xuebing had already stretched out his hands under everyone's shocked gazes!
"Xiao Dong!"
"What are you doing?!"
"Are you crazy?!"
No one had expected Dong Xuebing to do something so crazy!
Catch someone with his hands? That's a height of six floors! He is risking his life!
The atmosphere in the building suddenly froze! It was dead silent! All of them stared at Dong Xuebing and the female staff member who had fallen from the building!
Whoosh!
Within a few seconds, the female staff had fallen 10 meters!
She has a lot of inertia! The female staff member's body seemed to carry a whistling sound of the wind!
Dong Xuebing shouted and caught her!
At this moment, Dong Xuebing shouted and caught the female staff member in his arms!
The scene flashed, and the female staff landed on the cushion with both of Dong Xuebing's hands!
At this moment, time seems to have stopped!
