A while later.
The fire departnt arrived.
The firen started putting out the fire and rescuing people. It was chaotic again.
Is there anyone else inside?
Hurry and tally the numbers. Who else is inside?
Ah Sister Liu! Sister Liu is still inside!
Didnt Sister Liu send her child to school?
She ca back earlier, and I did not see her coming out.
Sister Liu stays on the sixth floor. We did not hear her shouts. Could it be she
The firen who had just put out the fire started preparing the long ladder. They took a long ti to prepare the ladder.
Dong Xuebing could not wait. Although he knew no one died today from the newspapers, he could not stand around and watch. He jumped and landed on a first-floor windowsill and jumped again. He reached the second floor. He caught the windowsill and quickly reached the third floor. He had lost count of the people he saved now. His clothes were torn and full of cuts. He was also covered in dust and victims blood.
Ah!
Mayor Dong went up!
Oh my god. Thats too high! Its the sixth floor!
Hurry and look for cushions and mattresses in case he falls!
Dong Xuebings movents were fast. He was more professional than those rescuers. Before those people could get over their shock and get the cushions and mattresses, he kicked open a sixth-floor window and jumped inside.
Everybody was dumbfounded when they saw Dong Xuebings agility.
F**k!
Are you Spiderman?
The people outside were worried as they looked at Dong Xuebing climbing up the building again.
Jiang Fangfang and her n returned after evacuating the next buildings residents. Party Secretary ng and Political and Legal Affairs Committee Secretary Chu Peng also arrived.
How is it?
Theres still one person inside.
Only one? Great.
No one has died until now.
The building might collapse entirely soon, and only one person is inside.
If they can rescue this person, there will be zero casualties in this incident.
Secretary ng and Mayor Jiang were not at the building earlier and did not understand the situation. Mayor Dong? Where is Mayor Dong?
A Party Committee staff pointed at the building. Mayor Dong went in to save that person on the sixth floor. He he had climbed through the windows.
What?
Sixth floor?
He climbed up?
Jiang Fangfang turned and looked at a fireman. Mayor Dong has not recovered from his injuries. How can you all let him go in?
The fireman replied. We tried to stop him, but he refused to listen. He rescued almost half of the people from the building. We could not do anything. Dong Xuebing was too fast, and the firen had to admit he was more efficient. The difference was too broad. When they were thinking of a way to rescue the victim and prepare the equipnt, Dong Xuebing completed the rescue.
All the family mbers and Public Security Bureau staff who rushed over from work stood outside the family quarters. ng Rui, Jiang Fangfang, and other leaders stood outside the cordon. Although they were far away, everybody was staring at that sixth-floor window. It was the apartnt of the last victim.
One second
Ten seconds
Half a minute
Its been a while, and there are no movents.
Everyone was anxious. What happened inside? Where is the victim? Why hasnt Mayor Dong co out?
Jiang Fangfang asked. Why is the ladder not ready yet?
The firen were trying to fix the ladder. Theres a malfunction. We are trying our best.
Malfunction? A malfunction at this ti? Chu Peng was furious. Hurry and get the ladder up! The building is going to collapse soon! The stairwell had collapsed. How are they going to get down?
The Countys fire departnt lacked funds for equipnt and maintenance. All of their equipnt was old and seldom used. Its normal for them to malfunction. The firen started to panic when the County leaders scolded them.
Eh! Look!
Thats Sister Liu! Its Sister Liu!
Mayor Dong ca out too!
Dong Xuebing was carrying a middle-aged woman at the windows. The woman was in pain, and her leg was covered in blood.
Jiang Fangfang asked. Where is the ladder?
A fireman wiped his sweat. Its not ready. We cannot open the ladder.
Chu Peng shouted. What are you all doing? Hurry and repair it before it is too late?
No one knows when the building will collapse completely. They cannot wait.
Mayor Dong can climb up the building quickly, but it is harder to climb down. He could not climb down the building now. That is the sixth floor. He would fall to his death if he slipped. Moreover, he was carrying an injured woman. He was trapped upstairs.
The air beca tense.
Dong Xuebing looked at the fire engine and knew the ladder might be faulty. It could not be extended. He did not mind and said to the woman in his arms. Sis, hold on to my neck tightly. Dont let go.
The middle-aged woman gasped. What are you going to do, Mayor Dong?
We are going down. Before the woman could react, Dong Xuebing jumped out of the windows.
Ah!
Mayor Dong!
Are you crazy?
The onlookers gasped. Mayor Dong was committing suicide.
Twenty ters
Nineteen ters
Eighteen ters
Dong Xuebing carried the woman and fell quickly. When they reached the fifth floor, he stepped on the windowsill. His falling speed slowed down slightly. That sudden drop in speed caused him to lose his balance. The woman and him were falling diagonally. Air has resistance, and they cannot fall in a straight line. When they reached the fourth floor, Dong Xuebing was almost horizontal. But he was not worried. He reached out one hand and grabbed a railing. Crack! The railing broke off, and his falling speed dropped again. He also adjusted his body position. He was falling feet down again.
Thirteen ters
Twelve ters
They reached the third floor in a flash.
The woman realized Mayor Dong had jumped off the building with her and let out a shriek. Ahh!
Dong Xuebing still had ti to make a helpless expression.
The people on the ground held their breaths and watched them fall.
Dong Xuebing broke the railings, but he did not throw it away. He carried the woman with one arm and pushed the railing down. The broken railing part flew into a third-floor window, and the other end was stuck. He held the broken railing tightly, and their falling speed slowed further.
Ten ters
Nine ters
They reached the second floor.
Dong Xuebing had let go of the broken railing. He noticed his body was slanting and patted the wall behind him three tis.
Thud thud thud
The friction caused his body to be upright again.
Dong Xuebing imdiately stepped on the second-floor windowsill hard. His foot did not land on the windowsill properly. Although he slowed a little, their bodies flipped. He quickly kicked against the wall and repositioned their bodies.
Thud!
They landed on the ground.
Dong Xuebing almost sorsaulted in midair and landed steadily on the ground. His knees bent to cushion their fall, and he stood straight again. He put down the screaming woman and said calmly. Stop shouting, Sis. You are safe now.
They were safe.
Everybody was stunned.
WTF? How agile are you?
ng Rui, Chu Peng, and the rest were also stunned. Mayor Dong was carrying a person! He was fine after jumping off from the sixth floor!
Everyone was silent for a while.
Clap clap clap soone started clapping.
Everyone followed and started clapping.
The final person was rescued. Everybody was relieved.
But a lot of people looked at Dong Xuebing weirdly. He had not fully recovered from his injuries, and he was fine after jumping off from the sixth floor with a woman in his arms. How did he get all those fractures from falling off the City Finance Departnt building? That was only the third floor. You got injured purposely.
You purposely get injured to blow up that incident!
Unscrupulous!
You are too evil!
The dical team quickly rushed over.
The middle-aged woman sat on the floor and thanked Dong Xuebing profusely. But her leg was bleeding nonstop.
Let see. Dong Xuebing kneeled.
I was hit on my leg and injured my blood vessel. The woman said.
Its all right. Dont move and bear with it. Dong Xuebing pressed hard on a few acupuncture points on her leg.
The dical team reached them and said. Leave the victim to use, Mayor Dong. We got to stop the bleeding first.
Dong Xuebing stood up and said. No need. Just send her to the hospital. The bleeding stopped, and she is fine now.
The bleeding stopped! A nurse looked at the wound on the womans thigh. It stopped bleeding. It seed the acupuncture points Dong Xuebing pressed earlier stopped it.
You know Chinese dicine? The nurse was shocked.
Dong Xuebing calmly replied. I know a little.
Climbing up from outside of a building.
Getting over obstacles.
Putting out the fire
And stop bleeding with Chinese acupuncture points.
The fire departnt and dical team do not even need to be here.
Mayor Dong alone is enough!
