It was pitch black.
Dong Xuebing could not see anything.
Dong Xuebing felt like he was dreaming, but his head was hurting. He opened his eyes slowly, and a ray of light shone into his eyes.
"Ah! My eyes are open! "
"Chief Dong is awake! He is awake! "
"Go and call Mayor Yuehua!"
"Call the doctor first! Hurry! "
Dong Xuebing looked at the chandelier on the ceiling and the windows outside. The sky was dark, and he knew he should be in a hospital ward. Dong Xuebing remembered what happened before he fainted. After he caught Mayor Yuehua at the District Party Committee's compound, he lost consciousness. He tried to move his arm. Hiss, his arm was in so much pain that he couldn't even lift his arm. His arm seemed to be bandaged with gauze. The smell of medicine floated into his nose and the sound of equipment ticking in his ears.
"Chief." It was Geng Xinke. "How are you feeling?"
Dong Xuebing looked towards the direction of the voice. "How long have I been asleep? Where am I? "
Geng Xinke quickly replied. "You had been unconscious for about 7 to 8 hours. This is the District's First Hospital."
"I feel fine. Is there anything serious?" Dong Xuebing tried to sit up. "Come, Xinke. Help me up."
Geng Xinke and a nurse quickly helped Dong Xuebing to sit up. "We had taken an X-ray, and the doctor said your left and right arms have different degrees of bone fractures. Your waist and legs are also injured, and you need some time to recuperate."
Dong Xuebing frowned. "Is it that serious?"
"This is already considered lucky." Geng Xinke said with lingering fear, "When we sent you here, we told the doctor that you caught seven or eight people who jumped from five or six stories high with your bare hands. A few experts said that you might not be able to keep your arm, and you might even be paralyzed. At that time, all of us were scared out of our wits. But after a checkup, we found out that it was only a bone fracture. The doctors all felt that it was quite unbelievable. They said that you would recover in a month or two, and there wouldn't be any sequelae. You can rest assured about this."
At this time, an Orthopedic Doctor from the First Hospital entered and checked on Dong Xuebing. The doctor knew how important this patient was. The District Party Secretary and the District Mayor had given the order to save this patient no matter what. But now, there was no need to worry. The doctor was also puzzled. He could not understand how Chief Dong's body could only be fractured after so many injuries. What were his bones made of? This is too f * cking sturdy! If it had been someone else, not only would their arms have been smashed, their lumbar vertebrae and cervical vertebrae would have been fractured!
The doctor looked at Dong Xuebing again. He was shocked by Dong Xuebing's endurance. If everyone was like Dong Xuebing, the Orthopedics clinic would be closed.
Actually, if Dong Xuebing had fainted and did not have time to use REVERSE to turn back time, even if he was sent to the hospital, no one would know he was injured. His broken arms were caused by the impact when he caught Mayor Yuehua. He had used REVERSE to recover from his injuries. But since he was already at the hospital, and the results were out, Dong Xuebing did not want to use REVERSE again. If not, he will not be able to explain himself. No one can recover so fast. He can only wait for his recovery.
Suddenly, the ward's door opened, and Geng Yuehua, who was wearing a dusty suit, entered. Behind her was a group of people. There were District leaders and staff members who were rescued by Dong Xuebing. Many of them were injured, and one of them was still on crutches.
Geng Yuehua asked the moment she entered the ward. "How is Xiao Dong?"
The doctor replied. "I had checked on him earlier, and the results are the same. He should recover after resting."
Geng Yuehua nodded and walked over to look at Dong Xuebing.
"Mayor Yuehua." Dong Xuebing wanted to sit up.
"Lie down." Geng Yuehua pressed on Dong Xuebing's shoulders. "You are injured now, and the most important thing is to recover. Don't think about anything else."
Dong Xuebing nodded and looked at the people behind him. "Is everyone alright?"
Geng Yuehua replied with a straight face. "You had saved everyone. Only Xiao Wang's leg is fractured. The rest are fine and only have superficial injuries."
Dong Xuebing was glad that everyone was fine. His injuries were not in vain, especially Geng Yuehua. Dong Xuebing was relieved when he saw Geng Yuehua was covered in dust and mud. If anything happened to Yuehua, Dong Xuebing would regret it for the rest of his life.
Two female staff members looked at Dong Xuebing, who was covered in bandages, and suddenly started crying.
"Chief Dong … thank you!"
"Sob … sob … thank you!"
The people around them were affected by their tears.
A nurse had also heard about what happened at the District Party Committee's compound after Dong Xuebing was admitted to the hospital in the afternoon. When she heard about how Dong Xuebing risked his life to save someone's life, her tears started rolling down her cheeks. She was very touched and wished she could see it with her own eyes.
The rest of the people who had escaped from the building also thanked Dong Xuebing. After seven to eight hours, they could finally say 'thank you' to Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing could not stand it and quickly said. "Everyone, don't be like this. We are all colleagues from the same district, and it's normal for us to help each other. I believe that if I'm in danger, no one will leave me in the lurch. That's what we should do. You, you … don't cry. " Dong Xuebing did not know most of their names, but they looked familiar. He knew they were working in the District Government.
After a while, a few more people entered the ward. Some of them were from Guangming Street Office, and some were the family members of the rescued staff members. There was a shelter near the hospital, and everyone came to visit Dong Xuebing when they heard he was awake. The hospital's person-in-charge also came down to visit him.
The ward was immediately filled with people.
Some of the staff were fine as Mayor Yuehua was around, and they knew they should not snatch the chance to speak.
But some of Dong Xuebing's family members did not care and thanked Dong Xuebing profusely.
"Chief Dong! You are a good person! "
"If it wasn't for you, my daughter would not be able to come back alive!"
"Thank you. Thank you."
Dong Xuebing panics and bluntly reprimands him.
Geng Yuehua turned to look at everyone. "It's getting late. Let's go back and talk tomorrow. Let Xiao Dong rest too."
"That's right."
"Let Chief Dong rest first."
"Chief Dong, I wish you a speedy recovery."
"We will be leaving now. Take care."
Everyone left the ward, and Geng Yuehua asked the nurses to leave as well. Only Dong Xuebing and Geng Yuehua were left in the ward.
Dong Xuebing looked at Geng Yuehua and asked. "Mayor Geng, how's the situation here?"
"There were another five aftershocks. One is more serious, and the other four are not serious."
"The number of victims …"
Geng Yuehua kept quiet for a while. "… it's over 10,000, and the number is still rising."
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath. He can save one or two people, but he can't save tens of thousands of people. He can only feel helpless in front of nature.
After understanding the situation, Dong Xuebing said softly. "You should go back early."
Geng Yuehua nodded but did not move. She covered Dong Xuebing with his blanket.
"The district cannot do without your commands." Dong Xuebing said. "This is an important time, and you don't have to worry about me. I am a tough person, and I will not die even if the sky falls."
Geng Yuehua looked at the porridge on the table. "Are you hungry?"
Dong Xuebing shook his head. "No. I don't have any appetite."
"You must eat even if you don't have an appetite. I will leave after you finish eating." Geng Yuehua picked up the bowl of porridge without any explanation. She used the spoon to scoop up some porridge and brought it to his mouth.
"I am really not hungry." Dong Xuebing smiled. "Go back." Dong Xuebing was afraid someone might barge in and called her by her title.
"I heard you had not eaten for the whole day! Even if you are not hungry, you must eat! "Geng Yuehua ignored Dong Xuebing and said with a straight face." Open your mouth. "
Dong Xuebing could not move his arms and could not pick up the bowl. He could only open his mouth and take a sip of the porridge. Soon, the second spoonful came.
Dong Xuebing did not even have the time to catch his breath as he continued to drink.
Mayor Yuehua does not know how to take care of people, but Dong Xuebing could sense Geng Yuehua's gratitude from her actions. Dong Xuebing knew Geng Yuehua is not the type to say mushy words, and that's why she expressed her gratitude in this way. Dong Xuebing felt warm in his heart as he drank the porridge Geng Yuehua fed him. Even Geng Yuehua's family had not enjoyed such treatment before.
Dong Xuebing mustered up his courage and asked. "Err … can you wash an apple for me?"
Geng Yuehua looked at Dong Xuebing and went to wash the apple.
Dong Xuebing quickly said. "No … I am joking. I am joking."
… …
It had been more than eight hours since the earthquake.
Traffic and communication had also been restored to various places.
News of Dong Xuebing's crazy actions spread like wildfire in the afternoon. If the District's Party Secretary and District Mayor were not present at the scene, and the news was spread by some reputable government officials, no one would believe it.
Six stories high!
Using his hands to catch it?
And he even caught 7 to 8 people at once?
In the end, he only broke his bones? His hands were saved?
Everyone who heard about this incident felt it was crazy!
All the government officials working in Nanshan District had heard rumors about Dong Xuebing's fighting skills. But no one expected Dong Xuebing's fighting skills to be so powerful!
What kind of fighting skills is this?!
Are your arms made of f * * king iron??
