On a quiet and cold night, the sound of a fire was like a drop of water falling into a frying pan in the sleeping mountain village.
No one expected that when the snow was so heavy, in the middle of the night, when you were sleeping comfortably, you would be awakened by someone's house being collapsed by the snow, and it turned out to be on fire.
The captain did not even have time to put on his cotton-padded jacket, he rolled out of bed, and even did not have time to pull up his heels, and ran out
Cao Meihua also quickly put on her clothes and shouted, "Old man, you haven't put on your cotton jacket yet!"
It was not known whether the captain answered or not, but Cao Meihua did not hear anything. She quickly put on her clothes, grabbed the captain's cotton-padded jacket and ran after him.
When the captain arrived at the Youth Home, the whole place was filled with smoke, and the dormitory next to the kitchen was also on fire. The young men who arrived first were already working in groups to put out the fire with water. Some of them had already climbed onto the roof and removed part of it to make an isolation zone.
Some of the educated youth were standing aside, covered in dust and wearing thin clothes, with fear on their faces and trembling all over.
The captain shouted, "Is anyone hurt? Yan Weiguo, Yan Weiguo!"
The captain called out several times, but Yan Weiguo was nowhere to be seen. Chen Hongmei, who had just returned from fetching water, saw the anxious captain and immediately put down the bucket and came over to explain the basic situation.
"Captain, there are currently no casualties. The cause of the fire is unknown, but the fire originated from the main kitchen. The property damage is still unknown.
That’s all I know, I’m going to help.”
The captain breathed a sigh of relief, as long as no one was hurt. "Go ahead, and be careful of your own safety."
Chen Hongmei nodded and joined the firefighting team
Although the villagers may have quarrels and intrigues with their neighbors, they are still very united when it comes to major issues.
At this time, basically those who were able to move freely all came to join the firefighting team, and they all tried their best to put out the fire and rescue supplies. No one was being cunning or slacking off, and no one cared about whether they would suffer any loss at this time. They just worked hard in this heavy snow.
There are also some outstanding performers in the educated youth group, such as Su Ye, Zhang Chaoyang, Chu Chenhua, He Jianguo, Chen Hongmei, Su Hong, Han Xiaomei, Wen Wan, etc.
Strength lies in numbers. With everyone's concerted efforts, the fire was finally brought under control.
When Qin Shuwan arrived, the fire had been completely extinguished. Everything that could be burned in the big kitchen was burned clean, leaving only the black walls standing there. Three dormitories next to the kitchen were burned, and only the black walls were left. There was also a pile of messy, dilapidated and dirty things in the yard, which should have been salvaged.
Qin Dahai wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked over to his daughter. "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you not to come out? It's so cold, what if you get sick?"
