Chapter 170 I Can Find My Big Brother
No sooner had he finished speaking than a deafening roar erupted from the other end of the phone.
The video call was immediately disconnected!
The black screen showed only a pale, smudged face.
Her mind went completely blank for a full three seconds before she shuddered and suddenly stood up!
I accidentally pulled up the photo album, and two photos that weren't positioned correctly fell out.
She picked it up with trembling hands, "I'm sorry, Madam, I was too hasty..."
Just as she was about to put it back, Madam Jiang grabbed her arm.
Her gaze was solemn as she called out towards the door, "Liqing! Immediately contact the group's rescue and medical teams and send Xiao Mao over there!"
Madam Jiang didn't need to confirm; the loud noise just now was enough to explain everything.
She patted the girl's cold hand, "I won't stop you."
When a loved one is in trouble, one only wishes to rush to their aid immediately, and would not fear the slight danger involved.
"But just like you helped me at the auction, you also need to ensure your own safety, understand?"
Tu Yao gritted her teeth and nodded emphatically: "I know."
As her reason gradually returned, she raised her pale face and said, "Madam, could you please tell my brother for me?"
"Second brother should be on his way to the outskirts of the city right now. Tell him that as soon as we have any news, second brother and I will call him, but he is not allowed to come over. His leg is in the recovery period, and if something goes wrong, eldest brother will be very angry."
Just as she was about to leave, she turned back and added, "Don't come over, take good care of yourself, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
After saying that, he ran out of the ward like a gust of wind.
Madam Jiang was somewhat stunned; this child... had given her less than ten seconds to process the situation.
Ten minutes later, the housekeeper returned to the ward.
"Madam, we just sent Xiao Mao there. The rescue team is about to set off, and the medical team is already on its way."
On the hospital bed, a few pages of several other photo albums that hadn't been looked at with Tu Yao were turned, and Madam Jiang glanced at them casually.
I caught a glimpse of a photo right in the middle.
He is a little boy who is about five years old.
The child's innocent face was full of life. Unlike his two younger brothers, he was born to love the camera and had an exceptionally lively personality.
Madam Jiang was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke his face.
The next second, for some reason, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and suddenly found it hard to breathe.
The image of Tu Yao's pale face resurfaced in my mind. Looking around the ward, I naturally recalled the scene of being surrounded by several children greeting me that day.
She remembered Tu Yao's older brother... he was a child who seemed arrogant but was actually very soft-hearted.
Now, however, he has encountered an accident, and his fate is unknown.
Madam Jiang couldn't help but clutch her chest, which was throbbing slightly.
"...Liqing, get me discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. Keep a close eye on things at the film and television base yourself."
"Also... have Jiang Peng undergo a mental evaluation."
The butler was taken aback. "...Okay."
...
On the bus heading to the outskirts of the city, Tu Yao's hands trembled as she opened her phone and kept dialing Tu Chaoxi and Cheng Sangsang's numbers.
Without exception, not a single call went through.
The entries on the screen popped up one after another.
#Loud noise heard in the suburbs of Yanjing#
#Yanjing Film and Television Base Collapses#
What the heck is going on?!
It appears that a set built on-site collapsed, but the reason is still unknown.
[That was terrifying! I just passed by there, and there was a deafening roar. I wonder what's happening inside.]
[A little rumor, not guaranteed, but it seems to be about Cheng Sangsang's film crew... Tu Chaoxi is also there...]
[Oh my god, could this be the drama that Cheng Sangsang wrote and built herself?]
...
Tu Yao frowned as she read these comments.
...Too fast, a bit too fast.
As soon as the incident came out, comments brought Cheng Sangsang into the spotlight.
The car stopped quickly, and she temporarily put her doubts aside and jumped out of the car.
As Tu Yao ran, she casually put her phone in her pocket, when she suddenly bumped into something and froze.
When I took them out, I saw... two photos.
She remembered that just as she was about to put it back, Madam Jiang stopped her, and in her haste, she took the photo with her!
One is a photo of Jiang Fengchun and Shen Zhuxing, and the other... is the family photo from earlier.
All the faces were blurred, except for the maid's face, which remained somewhat clear.
Tu Yao glanced at it, sent a message to Madam Jiang, carefully put it in her pocket, and then immediately ran into the base!
I hadn't run more than a few steps when I bumped into a warm embrace.
A helpless sigh came from above.
Tu Yao immediately stepped back, looked up, and saw Nan Ke and Xu Chi.
Both of them were dressed in simple casual clothes and had come over as soon as they received the news.
Tu Yao's nose tingled: "Second Brother, Xiao Chi."
Before she could ask, Xu Chi looked at her reddened forehead and said in a deep voice, "It was that man-made teaching building that suddenly collapsed. The specific cause is still under investigation. Cheng Sangsang and most of the workers are fine."
He paused, looking at her intently: "She said that you reminded them in time, and they ran away as soon as they heard it. However, Cheng Sangsang accidentally fell while hiding and is now treating her wound."
Tu Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good...that's good...it's good that everything's alright..."
Then she immediately asked, "...What about my brother?"
Tu Yao tentatively asked, "My brother... he must be alright too, right?"
Xu Chi's gaze darkened as he looked into her bright eyes, which clearly betrayed his unease.
After a moment of silence, "...Tu Xiaomao, Teacher Tu and two workers are still inside. The rescue team is searching for them."
"During the first collapse, two workers couldn't escape. Teacher Tu turned back to save them and encountered the second collapse."
Tu Yao was taken aback.
For a moment, his eyes were somewhat blank and confused.
Still inside... Search and rescue...
She subconsciously looked at Nan Ke, "...Second Brother?"
Nan Ke's usually gentle eyes were now completely red.
He opened his mouth, trying to reply to her.
Before they could even speak, Tu Yao suddenly slipped through their midst and ran into the base without looking back!
"Tu Xiaomao!"
The two immediately gave chase, and when they arrived, Tu Yao was staring blankly at the scene before her.
This is a filming base that was independently set up, covering several thousand square meters. The six-story teaching building has collapsed, and almost everything that can be seen with the naked eye is a ruin.
...and her brother was trapped under the rubble.
Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, everyone was engaged in the rescue.
The deep voice sounded again.
"The rescue team searched along the direction of the secondary collapse, but... they couldn't find it."
"We are currently waiting for search and rescue dogs."
Tu Yao realized that Xiao Chi was describing the current situation.
He seemed hesitant to assure her until he had concrete information available.
She whispered, "...Xiao Chi, thank you."
Madam Chiang's rescue team is still on its way.
The only person who could summon so many rescue teams in such a short time... was Koike.
He must have made a great effort.
It's okay if I can't guarantee it.
Xu Chi felt a slight soreness in his throat as he stared at her. "Have you forgotten? You don't need to thank me."
Tu Yao didn't say anything more. She just stared quietly ahead, neither crying nor moving.
Nan Ke suddenly felt a little flustered and said softly, "...Let Xiao Chi take you back first, and I'll tell you when I have news, okay?"
Tu Yao shook her head, "...No, Second Brother, don't be afraid. I'm not scared. I can't cry or leave right now. I have to think of something."
Nan Ke was taken aback: "You..."
Tu Yao suddenly looked up at the top of her head.
The progress bar is flashing, but it's still stuck at 20.
Tu Yao stared for a while, then suddenly walked to the left, and the next second...
[Progress Bar Announcement +1]
[Progress Bar Announcement +1]
...
[Progress bar announcement: 23]
Tu Yao clenched her fists tightly and slowly and cautiously walked back.
[Progress Bar Announcement - 1]
[Progress Bar Announcement - 1]
...
Back to the starting point, the progress bar returned to 20.
In an instant, a clear light appeared in Tu Yao's eyes.
She immediately turned her head, "Xiao Chi, could you get a few people to help me? I can find my older brother and the others!"
