Chapter 580 On Fire
The corridor was filled with black smoke. A figure stumbled out and then I saw that the smoke was coming from the veterans' dormitory.
"It's on fire, put it out."
Lu Sihui had experienced arson before, and the moment she saw the black smoke, she immediately realized what was happening.
"Go and call someone."
She was like an excellent commander, directing her comrades to work together with clear division of labor.
"You guys take the basins to fetch water, and a few of you go outside to get the engineer shovels and fill them with snow to put out the fire."
No matter whether they were veterans or new recruits, they were like headless flies at this moment. Lu Sihui's command made everything orderly. Those who were just panicked also calmed down. Those who needed to call people went to call people, and those who needed to put out the fire came to put out the fire according to Lu Sihui's command.
Lu Sihui led people to get buckets and shovels from the shelf. Huang Yaomei was strong, so she filled the snow, and Lu Sihui led people to carry the snow into the house.
Zhou Zixu received a report and rushed over with a battalion of soldiers. Everyone worked together and finally prevented the fire from spreading.
But the veterans' dormitory was no longer habitable. The room was filled with smoke and black smoke, the bedding was half burnt, and the fire spread upwards, almost causing the roof to collapse.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the messy scene, Zhou Zixu glared at Ding Li fiercely.
Really?
Pretending to be sick and setting fire in the house for fun? This is sabotage of military supplies, and you can be brought to a military court.
"I had a stomachache, so I wrapped myself in a blanket and warmed myself by the stove. I didn't know how the fire started. Woohoo, I was so scared."
Ding Li looked unbearable at this moment. Her hair and eyebrows were burnt, and her face was pitch black. She was crying and wiping her tears, and her face looked like a harlequin cat.
She was really scared and almost turned into a roasted suckling pig.
Fortunately, she discovered it in time, threw the quilt away and ran out.
"Someone, take her to the military doctor."
Zhou Zixu frowned and glared at her. It was just a blanket that was on fire, and it was near the stove, so the fire shouldn't have spread so quickly. She must have been in a hurry to escape and threw the burning blanket onto someone else's bed, causing the fire to spread quickly.
This kind of person really can't be kept. If there's nothing wrong with him after the examination, let the art troupe take him back. Don't let them burn the Iron Blood Corps to ashes in a few days.
"What should I do? How will I sleep at night?"
There were ten people in the veterans' class. Nine of them were still there after Ding Li left. Looking at the mess in the room, with water and snow everywhere, they all had sad faces, and many of them hated Ding Li in their hearts.
"Pack your belongings and go to the logistics department to get a set of blankets and mattresses. You will have to share a dormitory with Lu Sihui's class. I will send someone to add extra beds for you later."
Zhou Zixu let out a sigh. This is a dormitory reserved for female soldiers. They can't squeeze in with the male soldiers, right?
Sixteen people need eight beds. Lu Sihui already has five beds in her room, so moving three more beds over would be enough.
But there is one thing: there is no free space between the beds. It is basically like a big bunk bed, which makes it inconvenient for everyone to get on and off.
"Thank you, Captain Zhou."
No one was picky at this time. If they couldn't go back to the art troupe, they had to have a place to sleep! Zhou Zixu solved their urgent problem.
Li Mei frowned and lowered her head. The dormitory was spacious and full of recruits, so they could talk about whatever they wanted to say without any reservations.
Now that these nine veterans have come, not only will we be squeezed in, but we will have to be careful when speaking in the future and won’t be able to speak freely.
The most important thing is that I drank ginger and sugar water last night and my stomach feels warm. If there were no outsiders, the squad leader might treat everyone tonight.
Now that these people are here, Lu Sihui should not be able to take out the brown sugar. There are too many people and too little meat to go around.
The veterans all had grateful expressions on their faces, while the new recruits all had blank expressions. Zhou Zixu looked at Lu Sihui and asked for her opinion.
"Captain Lu, do you have any objections?"
