"Experts predict that the sandstorm will arrive on Monday, five days from now, and the patrol team will notify residents to reduce going out the next day."
As if remembering something, Xu Qianyao said to Jiang Feiyu: "Director Ning is almost recovered from his illness. He asked me to ask you where he found the medicine. He wants to send someone to find some."
"What medicine did you give Director Ning?"
Xu Qianyao couldn't stop being curious.
Director Ning has been ill for more than a month and has not seen any improvement despite treatment.
I heard from Xiao Ma that Jiang Yatou sent some herbs that day and gave Director Ning a pill, and he stopped coughing that same day.
"Special medicine. That's what it says on the box."
Jiang Fei began to make up a story: "I found the medicine in a small clinic in Ze'an County, but it's no longer available there."
"I searched the entire clinic and only found a box of special medicine with six pills in it."
The Dark Night Mercenary Group has dangerous goods and does things that are illegal, so they cannot be told to outsiders to avoid causing trouble for Lu Yu and Su Liuyuan.
“There are indeed few good medicines.”
Xu Qianyao did not doubt Jiang Fei's words. He drove to the destination and worked with the team members.
The strong winds last night were known, and for safety reasons, the rescue team called it a day and returned home at sunset.
Including staff from other units and workers who were renovating villas in the wealthy area, all left work early.
Strangely, there was no wind at night.
The whole city seemed to be plunged into silence.
Day 3.
The rescue team was only missing three buildings in the last community.
Jiang Fei climbed up to the rooftop with his team members as usual, wearing special safety belts for high-altitude work.
After making sure that the safety rope and spare rope were in good condition, Jiang Fei took the tools and descended, removing the insulation panels outside the building one by one.
The removed insulation boards will be handled by the team members operating the large grabber downstairs.
When he reached the 6th floor, Jiang Fei was about to remove the insulation board when he suddenly found that the light had dimmed.
A sudden strong wind blew the safety rope.
Jiang Fei bent his knees against the wall, grabbed the edge of the insulation board with one hand, and stabilized his shaking body.
The sky in the distance suddenly became dark, and a cloud of sand and dust pressed towards this side.
"The sandstorm has arrived early!"
“Run! Run!”
"Go inside the building and hide!"
Xu Qianyao shouted desperately from below.
The seat belt lowers slowly and takes time.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Jiang Fei was unable to enter the supermarket. He gritted his teeth, unbuckled his safety belt, quickly grabbed the spare rope next to him, bent his legs, and slid down to the ground.
Without caring about his rubbed palms, Jiang Fei ran to the nearest building, and the next second.
Bang--!
"ah!!!"
A piece of removed insulation board was directly blown up by the strong wind, knocking away the open unit door, and also took away a team member who had just arrived.
"Waiter!" Xu Qianyao suppressed his sadness and ordered:
"Go upstairs!"
Jiang Fei followed Xu Qianyao and others and ran to the 5th floor in one breath.
"The insulation panels on this floor have not been removed, so they can temporarily protect the windows in the corridor..."
Before Xu Qianyao could finish his words, there was a loud bang.
The insulation board outside the 5th floor was scraped off and the windows were broken.
Accompanied by the howling wind, yellow sand and dust rushed in madly.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough."
For a moment, Jiang Fei and the others couldn't open their eyes.
"Hey, this resident's home, cough." Xu Qianyao groped for the door with his hand.
But at this moment, a nearby door opened.
“Come in quickly!”
The man pulled Xu Qianyao into the room.
Then, Jiang Fei and other team members were pulled in.
"Rinse your eyes with water, and don't rub them too hard, otherwise the sand and dirt will rub your skin."
Jiang Fei felt someone stuffing a bottle of water into his hand. He sat on the ground and tilted his head to rinse his eyes.
Vision gradually returned.
Only then did they see that the person who rescued them was a middle-aged man in his thirties.
He has dark red skin, shaggy eyebrows, and a downturned mouth, giving him a bitter look.
It seems like... I've seen it somewhere before?
Xu Qianyao and his team members also cleaned their eyes and regained their vision.
Xu Qianyao: "Thank you. I will send the water we got today when the sandstorm is over."
The man waved his hand and said, "You have done so much for safety, it's okay to have a little water, don't feel burdened, I have several barrels stored at home."
"What's more, Demon Jiang, well, Miss Jiang is my benefactor. Without her, I wouldn't be able to make it from Lincheng to the safe house alive. I should thank her as a token of my gratitude."
Jiang Fei finally remembered who the man was
The one with the trash can on his head, the one who first listened to her and ate the red-eyed rat.
"You are a resident of Building A of Magnolia Court, your name is..."
"Zhu Wende!" Zhu Wende was surprised:
"I didn't expect Miss Jiang still remembered me!"
"Your hand is injured. I'll find you some alcohol."
"No, I have iodine cotton swabs." Jiang Fei took out a small pack of iodine cotton swabs under the cover of his trouser pocket.
The rope rubbed the skin on the palm of his hand, leaving several bloody cuts.
Jiang Fei opened an iodine cotton swab, broke it in half and applied it to the wound.
Seeing that Jiang Fei had disinfectants, Zhu Wende did not take the alcohol and stood up:
"My windows are all boarded up. You can stay here without worry. I'll provide you with food and lodging."
"I made an observation hole on the wooden board of the window over there. You can open it and see what's going on outside."
"I'm going to boil water and cook noodles. Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Xu Qianyao: "Brother Zhu, please stop working. We are not hungry."
"How can you not eat after a tiring day? Don't be polite to me. I'm a car mechanic at the Safety Institute and I have a lot of points."
The two of them started to pull each other.
Jiang Fei walked to the north window of the living room and looked outside through the observation hole on the wooden board.
The yellow sand in the sky was like a giant beast, swallowing up the city, and no buildings could be seen clearly.
The howling of the wind could be heard clearly, and people's screams and the sound of things colliding could be vaguely heard.
Taking out the walkie-talkie from his pocket, Jiang Fei called his teammates.
Nearly an hour later, I received Xiao Chuxia's reply.
"Little sister..."
Xiao Chuxia's voice was choked with sobs, and she was obviously crying.
Jiang Fei's heart suddenly lifted: "Where are you? Are you okay?"
"I'm safe in the hospital. I was just scared just now. Are you safe now, little sister?"
Jiang Fei: "I'm fine. I'm currently in a resident's home."
"When you stay in the hospital, remember to stay away from doors and windows and protect yourself..."
Suddenly, there was a chaotic shouting sound from the intercom.
"Chuxia! Come and save them!"
"Sister, I won't talk to you anymore!" Xiao Chuxia ended the call.
Not long after, Jiang Fei contacted Su Liuyuan and Ling Zhaorui.
A waiting home and a waiting dormitory, both are safe.
But Lu Yu couldn't be contacted.
The patrol team's work is basically outdoors. Has he found a place to hide?
Without his reply, where he is now, beyond the communication distance of the walkie-talkie, or...
Jiang Fei didn't want to think about the next thing and felt upset for no reason.
This sandstorm came too suddenly.
"Miss Jiang, your noodles."
Zhu Wende brought a bowl and a pair of chopsticks.
The bowl of noodles is in clear soup, served with two large pieces of greyish-white meat, which looks like pork.
"I have no appetite, you guys eat."
Thinking about his teammates, Jiang Fei continued to call on the intercom.
He didn't notice the pity in Zhu Wende's eyes.
Miss Jiang would be remiss if she doesn't eat such delicious meat.
Zhu Wende took it aside and started eating.
Xu Qianyao ate a piece of meat. Maybe because it was only salted, the meat tasted fishy and was hard to chew. He couldn't help but ask:
"What kind of meat is this?"
