Chapter 268 On Fire
Chao Chao was startled and asked in his mind, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Ah Shan said, "Grandma Feifei went out, but the electric heater she placed in the living room caught fire. She also covered it with clothes, and now it's burning. Hurry up and ask your driver for help."
Chao Chao gasped and blurted out, "The living room is on fire?"
Ge Zi was still filled with righteous indignation. He was stunned when he heard this. "On fire?"
Chao Chao didn't have time to explain, so he quickly took out his watch and dialed the driver's number, "Uncle Zhou, the house is on fire, and we are locked in the room and can't get out."
The other party was shocked and said, "Don't panic, miss. I'm downstairs and will be up soon."
Soon there was a sound of running on the other end of the phone. Zhou Bo comforted her while running, "Look around for water, wet a towel and cover your mouth and nose."
Chaochao nodded. There happened to be a bathroom in the room. After she hung up the phone, she quickly took Gezi and Feifei to get some water.
She couldn't see the fire outside, but she seemed to smell a faint smell of smoke.
As Uncle Zhou said, he took a towel to block the gap in the door and opened the window.
Gezi was very panicked, but he forced himself to remain calm. Feifei was timid to begin with, and now she was so panicked that she was crying. She did whatever Chaochao said.
The people of the Daqi Dynasty were terrified as they watched. Emperor Jingxuan paced back and forth in the imperial study.
"Why hasn't Zhou Bo come yet? Didn't Ah Shan say he could predict danger in advance? Why didn't he say so earlier?"
Although Cao Qing was also anxious, he couldn't help but complain in his heart after hearing this.
Ah Shan clearly said that it would take an energy level of 50,000 to predict the future, but isn't it still a little short of that? For now, I can only tell Chao Chao what has happened.
Lin Lan was so scared that she clenched her fingers. "This is a fire, and they are still locked in the house, unable to escape. That grandma Feifei is too evil, she must not be let go."
"I just heard that this house is on the 15th floor." Ryohei's eyelids twitched. "What if the living room catches fire and they can't get out? Do they have to go out through the window? It's so high, how can they get down?"
"Don't they have a plane? Use the plane to rescue people."
"The fire spread very quickly. It takes half an hour for the plane to take off. There was no way we could catch it in time."
"Uncle Zhou, come quickly."
Uncle Zhou has arrived. Chao Chao's phone rang again. Uncle Zhou's panting voice came from the other end. "Chao Chao, do you know the password to the gate?"
The door outside Feifei's house has a password lock. It would take a lot of time to break into this kind of door, so it would be faster if you know the password.
Chaochao looked at Feifei. Fortunately, Feifei knew the answer. After she reported a string of numbers, Zhou Bo quickly entered them.
The door opened, and Zhou Bo walked in. The smoke was already quite thick. He quickly ran to the room on the left according to where Chao Chao said, and knocked on it. "Chao Chao, are you in there?"
Chao Chao was delighted, "Yes, yes, Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Bo breathed a sigh of relief. "Take away the towels blocking the door, then stand back and cover your mouth and nose with wet towels. Ahem, I'm going to kick the door."
Chao Chao quickly did as he said and pulled his two friends back.
Then he shouted, "Uncle Zhou, it's done."
Then the door was kicked again and again. Zhou Bo was a retired soldier, so his strength and angle were very precise, and the door was kicked open in two kicks.
As soon as he opened it, Chao Chao looked up and saw three people at the door.
Three?
Zhou Bo came in first and walked away carrying Chao Chao.
Chao Chao turned her head and said, "Ge Zi and Fei Fei..."
Before he could finish his words, the two young, strong and serious-looking men beside Zhou Bo had already picked up Ge Zi and Fei Fei, and the three of them ran out.
Although Chao Chao was curious about who these two people were, she didn't ask anything. She saw the property management staff of the community rushing in with fire extinguishers and heading towards the fire.
But the fire started to grow bigger, and even the electrical sockets began to crackle. The fire had already reached the curtains and spread very quickly.
Chaochao couldn't see clearly, so she just obediently buried her head in Uncle Zhou's arms and was carried downstairs.
The residents upstairs were also arranged by the property to run downstairs one after another. When Chao Chao and his companions arrived downstairs, everyone else also ran out in shock.
Zhou Bo then asked Chao Chao, "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
"I'm fine. I didn't choke on the smoke." Chao Chao shook her head. She made the call in time and blocked the door and covered her mouth and nose as soon as the fire broke out.
On the contrary, when Uncle Zhou came in, the smoke was a bit thick and he was choked twice.
And the fire suddenly grew bigger when Chaochao and the others were being carried out, so all three of them were fine.
Zhou Bo breathed a sigh of relief and then found time to call He Nanzhou.
He Nanzhou was shocked when he heard this. Fire? Such a low-probability event could happen?
After Uncle Zhou explained the whole thing, a hand suddenly reached out and took the phone away.
Zhou Bo frowned and turned around to see the two men who had followed him down with Gezi in their arms.
He had been in the army for many years, and even though he had retired, he could tell from their aura that these two men must also have been from the army.
Moreover, most of them are special forces.
Zhou Bo guessed that these two people should be the bodyguards secretly arranged by the He family for Chao Chao.
Sure enough, after the man took his phone away, he continued to report the situation, "...I just checked, no one is fine, the cause of the fire is preliminarily determined to be the electric heater...Yes, okay...got it."
After saying this, he returned the phone to Zhou Bo and stopped talking.
Uncle Zhou didn't ask any more questions, as these were not things he could inquire about.
However, he didn't know that these two people were not arranged by He Nanzhou, but by He Jingyi.
Chao Chao is no longer an ordinary person. Her superiors know that she has a system, so they naturally cannot ignore her safety. In other words, she has Ah Shan, who can tell her about danger, so they don't arrange anyone close to her.
Therefore, when Chaochao was at Feifei's house, these two bodyguards were actually two floors downstairs.
When Chao Chao called Zhou Bo, the clothes on the heater had just started to burn, but there was no smoke or fire, so people outside would not know. When Zhou Bo rushed over, they also realized something was wrong, so they followed immediately, saved the people and left.
"The fire is so big, what should we do?" Chao Chao looked up at the burning house, worried.
The people of Daqi under the sky were also worried. Although the people were rescued, the fire had not been put out. This was the fifteenth floor, and the interior was already filled with smoke. There was no way to go up the stairs. But if the fire was not put out, wouldn't the whole building be burned down?
Just as they were thinking about it, they heard a whistle sound of beep-beep-beep.
