Chapter 154: Chapter 154
Chu River’s eyes widened:
"Why are you crying? Are you not a hero anymore? No crying, I’ll take you all out in a bit!"
Tears are contagious. Originally, a boy opened his mouth to bawl, and many children around him were starting to choke back sobs. Unexpectedly, Chu River’s rebuke made the boy endure the pain and manage to hold back his tears with a whimper.
After a long while, another child voluntarily crawled out from under the pile of stones. He looked about seven or eight years old, a chubby boy with a cool silver baseball cap on his head, looking at her innocently yet fearfully:
"Did the monster come? Where is my Ultraman Tiga?"
"Ultraman Tiga went to fight the monster!"
Chu River replied casually, "You all need to listen and don’t cause trouble. I’ll take you out now..."
As she spoke, another child in the corner, face covered with blood, emerged.
The little girl’s ponytail was already sticky with blood, and she wiped her face with her sleeve, turning it red again.
She puffed her belly and said:
"I can walk by myself! I’m the Little Yellow Duck class leader!"
With that, she shouted loudly, "Little Yellow Duck team, come here and follow me!"
The girl’s voice was sharp and thin, with a slight tremor of fear—after all, the scene was truly terrifying.
After repeating these words five or six times, she finally received a faint, weak response from a few people.
The ponytailed girl pouted immediately.
But she didn’t cry, and at this moment, she tugged at Chu River’s clothes.
"Sister, can you help me send them? I can walk by myself."
Little Yellow was using a megaphone to shout to this area, and upon hearing this, tears instantly welled up, only to be glared at by Chu River.
"Why are you crying! If you have the energy, hurry up and carry the children out! After one round of shouting, don’t shout anymore, saving lives is more important."
Little Yellow wiped his tears, and without a word, picked up the Little Yellow Duck class leader. When the little girl’s back turned, he looked at his blood-covered hands, his voice choked up.
"I... You, don’t be afraid, big brother is here to save you!"
The little girl’s eyes brimmed with tears, and finally, she couldn’t hold back and started crying.
"Wah... I saw the Cloud Class leader bleeding... I called him but he didn’t respond, is he going to die..."
Little Yellow expectantly looked over, but under the large stone pillar, only the child’s feet and dark red filthy bloodstains were vaguely visible.
He looked back at Chu River, only to see the usually fierce big sister silently packing up other unconscious children, without glancing at him for a moment.
At this moment, Little Yellow understood.
He pressed his hand on the little girl’s blood-soaked back, comforting softly:
"Don’t worry, he’s not dead. I’ll send you out first and come back to save him later. But that pillar is a bit heavy, it might take a while, so don’t be anxious."
The little class leader held back her tears and nodded earnestly at this moment.
"Make sure to save him, I’m not in a hurry... You save him well..."
The exhibition venue has a total of 6 floors, but the 4th floor and above were not used for this exhibition.
The 3rd and 4th floors were prepared for commercial exchanges after the exhibition, mostly adorned with decorations and a few on-duty service staff, with the main rescue operations concentrated on the 1st and 2nd floors.
people barely survived the disaster, whether they had professional training was unknown, it all relied on sheer courage. At this moment, they were exhausted to the point of dizziness and had only managed to rescue 672 people so far. The source of thɪs content is novel~fire~net
Among them, over 400 children were all carried out by Chu River alone.
And at this moment, it had been an hour and a half since the earthquake.
The earthquake in Xichuan caused a nationwide sensation.
An earthquake of magnitude 7.8, with aftershocks sure to follow, it affected all of Xichuan Province, including neighboring provinces and cities.
The entire nation was in shock.
All major websites urgently interrupted to report this major news, CCTV’s noon news was continuously tracking it, and the country didn’t hesitate to mobilize all possible resources, with rescue teams already on their way.
Even donations and supplies organized by individuals and civilian units were in full swing...
But for Xichuan Province, all of that was too distant.
The time was indeed too long, too long, yet also too swift, too swift.
Every minute, victims badly injured died without rescue.
Every minute, new despair emerged.
And the natural disaster was merciless, this quake left even the city’s three major hospitals not spared, with the Second People’s Hospital suffering less impact as its building remained undamaged. Now, all medical staff had been fully mobilized.
