“Sister, is someone going to rescue us?” The little boy looked around with his big black eyes, when he got up, he realized that there was no way out.
“Don’t worry, the Liberation Army will get us safely out of here, do you miss your mom and dad?” Su Mian asked.
The little boy lowered his head, “It’s my fault, I wanted to play and took my sister here to play hide and seek. I didn’t expect an earthquake, which caused the exit to be blocked.”
“You took good care of your sister, your mom and dad will surely forgive you,” Su Mian consoled him. He was indeed a real man who dared to admit his own mistake.
“Really?”
“Of course,” What was more important than being alive after a disaster?
******
“Oh no, the hole is sealed, what do we do?”
When First Team Leader opened his eyes again after the aftershock, the hole which Su Mian crawled into had been sealed.
“Then we have to start digging, why are you still standing there?” First Team Leader immediately grabbed the shovel and started digging.
“First Team Leader, we understand how you feel, our commander is also in there, but the aftershocks keep coming, we can’t rush it, otherwise it would be more dangerous if it collapses for a second time.”
“Then are we digging or not?” Sister-in-law was still in there, not knowing whether she’s dead or alive caused First Team Leader’s eyes to redden from anxiety.
“Hold on for a moment!”
Still waiting? First Team Leader didn’t have time to argue with them and ran outside. He couldn’t face the Commander, he shouldn’t have let her come and save the people.
First Team Leader ran all the way, he knew where his troops were stationed today, but by running he wouldn’t even be able to get there in an hour. Just as he was out of ideas, a tractor passed by on the road.
He heard that it was going to the disaster area near Wei Zhen Hui, First Team Leader immediately hopped onto the driver’s seat and let the driver sit at the back.
The tractor released a thick cloud of smoke, even though First Team Leader drove at full power, the speed was not fast. When they finally reached, First Team Leader’s face was blackened by the smoke.
As soon as he got out of the tractor, he shouted, “Commander, Commander, Sister-in-law was trapped under a pile of ruins, please go save her quickly!”
Wei Zhen Hui was instructing the soldiers to dig the ruins, he didn’t have to turn around to recognize the voice, but when he did he was shocked.
First Team Leader hugged Wei Zhen Hui, “Commander, please go save Sister-in-law, I am sorry!”
Wu Feng saw that it was First Team Leader, and went forward to kick him, “Brat, what are you yelling about, aren’t you supposed to be cleaning the domestic waste, are you purposely looking for trouble, wasn’t Sister-in-law sent away by Wei Zhen Hui?”
First Team Leader wiped his face and sweat smudged his face, “It’s true, Instructor. In the morning, a commander went into the hole and was trapped under some rubble. They needed a doctor, so when I saw Sister-in-law, I took her there. The space inside the pile of ruins was small, so she went in alone as I waited outside. Then an aftershock happened which sealed the entrance and trapped her inside. I am telling the truth, you have to believe me Commander, I wouldn’t joke around with Sister-in-law’s life!”
When he raised his head to look at Wei Zhen Hui, Wei Zhen Hui’s face sank deeply, “Where is she?” His voice was exceptionally cold.
First Team Leader trembled with fright, others might not know how Wei Zhen Hui got his nickname as the Big Demon but he did.
When he looked oddly calm on the outside, it meant a storm was coming.
If he knew she was going to be trapped in the ruins, he would never have brought her there to save others! Even though the Commander always looked cold on the outside, he adored his wife on the inside. Now that his wife was trapped, he would certainly skin him alive.
“In the pile of ruins not far from the troops, I can bring you there,” First Team Leader felt so guilty, if something were to happen to his wife he could just die.
“Commander, we are coming with you!”
“Wu Feng, I’ll leave this to you,” Wei Zhen Hui was cold and stern as he got into the jeep.
Wei Zhen Hui drove the jeep so fast that it was almost flying!
First Team Leader sat in the front passenger seat, closed his eyes and grabbed the handle tightly with his right hand. It was his fault that he babbled so much, his life was now in the hands of his Commander.
