At the critical moment, Xia Shige took a few steps forward, took out a flashlight-sized fire extinguisher that he had prepared long ago, and sprayed it at the lighter.
With a "puff" sound, white powder spurted out of the fire extinguisher and instantly covered the lighter, as if it was covered with a thick layer of white snow.
As the snow covered the ground, the flame on the lighter gradually went out, leaving only a small flame flickering weakly, as if it wanted to struggle, but eventually it disappeared helplessly into the air.
Everything went smoothly and the crowd burst into applause and cheers.
Everyone started talking at once, and they cursed the "Mediterranean" couple, saying that they were heartless and black sheep.
He also praised Xia Shige for her quick reaction and said that thanks to her, the supplies were saved.
"Great, little sister, you react so quickly!"
"Lady! You're awesome!"
"Little girl, thanks to you, otherwise our supplies would have been blown away!"
"Is there something wrong with this couple? They want to die, but they want to drag the people in the community to be buried with them?"
"This couple are pure bad guys! Quickly kick them out of the community!"
"Shoot him! Must shoot him!"
“Just take this couple to the plantation and use them as fertilizer for the desert vines!”
“…”
Xia Shige scratched his head embarrassedly as he listened to everyone's praises.
In order not to hinder the owners from collecting supplies, Officer Tan Zhen and the security guards at the property center blocked the angry crowd, while Officer Zheng Xin escorted the "Mediterranean" couple to the emergency office.
Xia Shige asked Sun Yuegui to take her grandmother and Grandma Liu home first, while she and the eldest brother who had knocked down the curly-haired woman went to the emergency office.
Along the way, my brother kept patting his chest with lingering fear.
He turned to Xia Shige and said, "I was so scared just now. Her lighter actually flew out of the door! Sister, luckily you were smart!"
Xia Shige looked at the brave brother in front of him, was silent for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Brother, did your family live near the Tianchi volcano before? Did you move here to take refuge when the volcano erupted?"
The eldest brother was stunned when he heard this. He touched his head and asked in confusion: "How do you know that I lived near Tianchi Volcano before? I thought my sister also has an accent!"
Xia Shige smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "No, no, I was just guessing."
The eldest brother didn't care. He continued, "We've moved here for more than half a year. I always thought this neighborhood was very safe. I didn't expect to run into these two troublemakers today! It's really annoying!"
Since the eruption of the volcano half a year ago, many people have moved into the community of Xidu, many of whom have come from other places to seek refuge.
The eldest brother was also a chatterbox. He kept mumbling in Xia Shige's ear, "At that time, the forecast said that the volcano in front of our house was going to erupt. The government arranged an emergency evacuation, and we didn't have time to pack our things!"
"It was still very hot! All we brought with us were summer clothes. Winter clothes and blankets took up too much space, so we didn't bring any!"
"Who would have thought that God would arrange things so badly! The temperature dropped so quickly!"
"It's very expensive to buy cotton-padded jackets and quilts now. My family doesn't have much money left. Fortunately, the government has arranged to distribute them for free!"
All the way, my brother kept praising the Anshi leadership team for their good arrangements and the timely delivery of supplies.
Xia Shige listened and responded.
…
When they arrived at the emergency office, the "Mediterranean" couple were handcuffed and squatted on the ground with their heads down, completely losing their previous arrogance.
In order to reward the eldest brother for his brave act, the emergency office gave him two quilts and a blanket for free.
The eldest brother was overjoyed. He left with his things in his arms, anxious to share the good news with his family.
Xia Shige sat down aside and watched Officer Zheng Xin interrogate the "Mediterranean" couple.
