The warehouse was only about ten minutes' walk from the hotel where we were staying, so I decided to relax and silently walked towards the warehouse while smoking a cigarette.
There is no hustle and bustle of big cities here. As dusk falls, the streets are as quiet as a small river. I walk under the dim street lights and my thoughts wander.
The appearance of Chen Zheng and Kuang Li made the whole thing more troublesome. It was more uncomfortable to beg Chen Zheng than to kill me, especially when I had to grovel in front of a woman I once loved, and my remaining self-esteem was gone.
As I was about to reach the warehouse, I suddenly smelled a burning smell in the air. I subconsciously looked up and saw thick smoke rising into the sky from the fire in the warehouse, and the air was filled with an unpleasant pungent smell.
I was stunned, as if I had been punched hard, and ran quickly towards the warehouse area. Sure enough, Chen Zheng's warehouse was on fire.
The scene was a mess, with workers scurrying around like headless flies, shouting and shouting, and thick clouds of smoke rising from the warehouse.
My heart skipped a beat. Most of the things piled up in the warehouse were combustibles. The fire was getting fiercer and fiercer. One of the warehouses was already a sea of flames.
As soon as I looked, I saw Chen Zheng, who was pissed, but not Kuang Li. My scalp exploded, and I couldn't help but have an ominous premonition in my heart. I rushed over, grabbed him, and asked sharply: "Where is Kuang Li?"
Chen Zheng was trembling all over, even his teeth were chattering, "She...she is..."
The uneasiness in my heart became more and more intense, so I grabbed him by the collar and roared, "Can you please tell me quickly where she is?"
Chen Zheng raised his trembling hand, pointed at the sea of fire with a livid face, and said in horror: "She...she was in the office. I drank too much and went to the toilet. When I came back,...there was...a fire inside. .”
I looked at the sea of fire in shock, and listened to the sound of fire truck sirens getting closer and closer to my ears. My heart felt like someone was holding it in their hands.
Kuang Li is sorry for me first, but in the face of life, everything is insignificant. The office is located deep in the warehouse, but the fire in that warehouse is not very serious. If you rush in now, it may be possible to rescue her.
Facing the sudden disaster, my calves were a little twisted, but now life is at stake and every second counts. Although Kuang Li and I are over, I can't watch her being swallowed by the fire.
I looked around, finally took off Chen Zheng's suit, jumped into the fountain nearby, then held the wet clothes over my head, and rushed into the fire bravely.
The fire in the warehouse here is not very fierce, but the scorching air waves are still coming towards me like an overwhelming ocean. The warehouse is only a few dozen meters away from her office, but I feel like I am in a terrifying hell. middle.
I tried my best to calm down, shouted Kuang Li's name, and ran towards the office based on my impression.
My call finally had an effect, and Kuang Li's choking voice came from not far away.
"Yu Bin? Is that you? Yu Bin, I'm here!!!"
The office has not been hit by the fire, but the flames have already licked the surrounding ground and spread a small sea of fire. At this moment, the office where Kuang Li is located is like an island swaying in the wind and rain, and may be swallowed by death at any time.
I held up my soaked clothes and rushed towards Ran Li. Several holes had been burned out of my suit, and sparks fell on my skin, making me wince in pain.
Ran Li had already rushed out of the dilapidated office at this time. She was completely panicked, hugged me tightly, and burst into tears.
"Yu Bin."
Before I had time to say anything, I put the tattered suit over her head and pulled her crazy to run outside.
The flames were dazzling, and everything was distorted in the fire. I could clearly feel Kuang Li's trembling body. The two of them supported each other and finally rushed out of the fire.
After rushing out of the fire, I fell to my knees on the ground, breathing heavily. This was probably the closest I had ever been to death. My hands were shaking uncontrollably, my mind went blank, and I was breathing heavily. gas.
Kuang Li suddenly threw herself into my arms, "Yu Bin, thank you."
I pushed her away, but before I could speak, she suddenly spoke again.
"Mr. Zhang is still inside..."
My head buzzed, and the whole figure was split in half, "What? There is another person? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"me……"
Kuang Li spoke tremblingly, but she was almost stunned and couldn't say a complete sentence.
I waved my hand, took a deep breath, grabbed the torn jacket, and rushed into the fire again.
This time the fire was much bigger than before. The thick smoke made it difficult for me to breathe. Every time I took a breath, my lungs were accompanied by severe pain.
Perhaps the harsh situation stimulated my potential. I no longer cared about fear. I rushed in and kicked open the office door. A slender middle-aged woman was slumped on the ground, her entire face Like death.
I inspired her desire to live, her eyes immediately lit up, and she shouted for help.
"Help me, I don't want to die..."
I struggled to move the coffee table that was in the middle, and then I noticed that blood was still pouring out of her forehead. There was an exhaust fan lying upside down next to her, which must have been hit by the falling exhaust fan.
I rushed over quickly, picked up the bucket from the water dispenser, and poured water on both of us. Then I carried her on my back, covered her with a soaked coat, and ran outside despite the thick smoke.
The fire outside was getting bigger and bigger, and the muffled sounds came one after another, as if the whole earth was shaking. I felt that my lips were parched, and the pungent smell gave me a splitting headache.
I felt like my breathing was getting heavier and heavier, and all the strength in my body was about to be drained away bit by bit.
At this time, the weak woman behind him spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Brother, just run away! I'm very touched that you can rush in and save me."
I opened my mouth, and a huge pain came from my chest. I gritted my teeth and said, "Stop talking about this, victory is right in front of me."
She said to me gratefully: "Brother, thank you, I will never forget you in this life."
I didn't take her words seriously at all, after all, life and death were at stake now, but I didn't expect that she would really change the trajectory of my life.
Just when I was about to run out of energy, several rescuers rushed toward us. I burst into tears. Although I was still in the fire scene, I felt like I saw hope when I saw them.
I yelled a few times, but the rescuers rushed over, took off their own breathing masks and put them on my face. I relaxed and collapsed on the ground.
We both were saved. I carried the woman out because her head was smashed. After she was pulled out, she was pulled directly into the ambulance. Apart from me being a little embarrassed, nothing happened. The ambulance staff did a simple check on me and after confirming that I was fine, they gave me food and hot water. I was tired and hungry, so I ate everything.
After eating, I felt much better. I sat on the ground blankly, watching the busy figures of the rescue workers, and suddenly I felt like I was surviving a disaster.
