According to statistics, a total of 17 owners in the Xidu community were killed and more than 50 owners were injured in the terrorist attack yesterday.
In addition, more than 20 homes of low-rise owners were blown up and burned. Those damn terrorists used bullets to break the glass and threw grenades directly into the houses...
Thinking of this, Manager Gao said sincerely to Xia Shige and Xia Huiyin: "By the way, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for the fire extinguishers you donated during the Houqianshan fire, the consequences of this fire would be unimaginable..."
Due to long-term water shortage, the fire hydrants in the community have become decorations. If the fire is not put out in time and spreads to the upper floors, the consequences can be imagined, and more people will be killed.
Fortunately, Xia Shige donated a large number of fire extinguishers, which helped to control the fire in time.
Xia Shige said quickly, "What are you talking about, Director Gao? We are all part of the community, and this is what we should do. It would be too polite to say thank you."
Xia Huiyin asked again: "How are the injured owners doing?"
Hearing this, the senior manager shook his head with a sad face and replied, "He just went to the hospital for a simple bandage and came back. He didn't even get anesthesia. There is no other way except to endure it by himself..."
This is the first year of the natural disaster, and medical resources are in short supply. Not only have the prices of many medicines risen to sky-high levels, but there is also a shortage of medical staff. Even many medical students who have not yet graduated have been temporarily hired to help out in the hospital!
Ordinary people nowadays cannot afford to see a doctor and can only pray that they do not get sick.
A regular cement property employee sighed and said in a deep voice: "It's painful to endure it. In today's world, it's better to die than to endure it. Death is a relief..."
For a moment, the atmosphere at the gate of the community became very depressing, and everyone was doing their work in silence.
Supervisor Gao sighed and said to Xia Huiyin, "Yesterday's terrorist attack caused panic among the people. It was dark and everyone was depressed. Now this kind of thing has happened again... Oh, our emergency office has to provide more door-to-door psychological counseling for the owners, otherwise the number of suicide incidents will increase..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Huiyin nodded solemnly.
After saying goodbye to the senior executive and entering the community, Xia Shige first sent Xia Huiyin to Jingjing Supermarket. At this time, there were several people standing in the supermarket queuing up to get sand vine cakes.
Because the weather has been getting colder recently, the owners who came to get their satang cakes were all dressed warmly. After experiencing yesterday's terrorist attack, everyone was no longer chatting as usual, but just lined up in silence.
There were only Officer Tan Zhen and Lin Jingjing in the supermarket. A batch of supplies needed to be delivered yesterday, and due to lack of manpower, Xia Guocheng and Lin's daughter went to help and would not be back for the next two days.
Xia Huiyin quickly went over to replace Lin Jingjing, allowing Lin Jingjing to rest first.
Xia Shige went up to Lin Jingjing to say hello, but found that her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Seeing this, Xia Shige asked worriedly, "Jingjing, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Lin Jingjing said in a hoarse voice: "The grandfather who lives next door to my house was killed in a terrorist attack yesterday..."
"He came to get some sand vine biscuits yesterday, saying that his granddaughter was having a birthday, so I gave him all the three candies that my family of three had, and also secretly gave him a bag of noodles that I had stored at the supermarket. He was so happy and kept saying thank you to me."
"But before he got home, he encountered terrorists... The terrorists opened fire on anyone they saw, and the old man was also shot..."
"After being shot, he covered his wound and crawled to the elevator. He struggled to get home and handed over all the supplies on his body to his family before leaving..."
After the old man left, his family hugged him and cried all night.
