[062] Fire
"ah?"
Shen Mo was obviously stunned on the other side of the phone, probably wondering if he was joking, and there was Wang Ke's sleepy inquiry next to him.
"Hurry up, wake them up, remember to call Tangtang and the others."
Fang Chang'an arrived downstairs and saw a strong fire in the window on the second floor. Then the curtains burned, and thick smoke kept coming out. I wonder what it had burned inside.
"Cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel, and you should be able to get down now..."
Fang Chang'an's tone didn't look like a joke. Shen Mo finally woke up and responded quickly, "Oh, oh".
"Then you can see if you can get out first, I'll call the police first."
There was no movement in the house that was on fire. Fang Changan hung up the phone and shouted at the top of his throat: "It's on fire! It's on fire! Help!"
The shouting of hoarseness pierced the late night near the early morning. Fang Changan, regardless of whether it was effective or not, called 119 while shouting. He shouted again during the waiting time, and then the phone was answered.
"Hey, hello..." There was a calm young man's voice over there.
"Hello, I'm on the street in the center of Shacheng Town. It's on fire, the second floor... next to that bank..."
Fang Chang'an quickly explained the address and situation, then hung up the phone, rushed into the corridor barefoot, and quickly climbed to the second floor. The corridor was filled with a choking atmosphere.
He didn't feel panic, but he turned around the stairs and when he arrived at the second floor, he could no longer tell which side of the house was on fire, so he slammed the nearest door four or five times, shouting: "It's on fire! It's on fire!"
The voice-controlled lights in the corridor lit up, illuminating the figure barefoot and naked on the upper body.
Fang Chang'an hit the door opposite again. As soon as he touched the door, he obviously felt that the temperature was wrong. The next moment he noticed that smoke kept coming out of the crack in the door.
There were no fire prevention facilities in the corridor. In desperation, Fang Chang'an could not think of what he could do, but there were fragmentary memories learned from later generations on the Internet. He seemed to be unable to open the door rashly. He endured the heat and smashed the door a few times, shouted a few times, but there was still no movement inside, so he decisively ran to the third floor barefoot again.
Shen Mo, Wang Ke and Song Mei were coming out of the house, both wearing pajamas and nightgowns, with disheveled hair, and their expressions looked a little panicked. After seeing him, they calmed down a little.
"Brother Chang'an..."
"Go down! Go quickly!"
Shen Mo just shouted, but was interrupted by him. He ran to the opposite door and smashed it. The next moment, the door was opened. Song Tang, Liu Bei, Mao Shanshan and Cheng Juan all came out.
"Hurry down, hurry up! I'll call the people upstairs!"
Fang Changan didn't say much, and ran to the fourth floor barefoot and smashed the door with a bang. Hearing Shen Mo and Wang Ke below anxious and slightly crying voices: "Brother Changan, hurry up!"
"I'm fine, I have time! You guys go quickly!"
Fang Changan once saw some warnings online, and it seemed that poisonous smoke was easily inhaled from the corridor, and he was a little panicked, but fortunately, the smoke in the corridor was not very thick.
He shouted to the bottom, not knowing if they could hear it, so he hurried to the fifth floor. It seemed that it had been modified and separated many small doors, and he smashed them one by one.
"It's on fire! It's on fire downstairs, hurry up..."
There was a panic behind the door. Some people opened the door quickly, while others only had sounds. Fang Chang'an was also afraid. With his passion, he slapped the door one by one, and with all his heart, he turned around and ran downstairs.
To be honest, in this case, he was willing to do his best, but he did not have the awareness of dedication. He was even worried that there were too many people living on the fifth floor, and blocked his way to escape later, so he should go downstairs first.
The corridor, which was still silent just now, was filled with various shouts. When he arrived at the fourth floor, he saw a woman holding a child in her arms and walking out the door with a bag in one hand.
There was a little girl behind her, who was also carrying a bag, which seemed a little heavy, and she dragged it down with difficulty, all of a panic.
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
The fireworks in the corridor were already very strong. The woman was anxious and kept urging her, but she did not escape down by herself. She put down her bag and helped her daughter take out the bag.
"Don't worry about things, it's important to save your life first!"
Fang Changan didn't care what was inside the bag, and he picked up the bag and threw it into the room, then picked up the little girl and ran downstairs, "Sister, hurry up! It's too late..."
He shouted, hugged the little girl and ran downstairs first. When he passed by the second floor, he found that the door on the fire was still closed, and the door opposite was also closed, but more likely, the person ran away and closed the door again.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
The little girl in her arms looked only seven or eight years old, so she obediently asked him to hold her, raised her head, stared at him with black eyes open. She probably didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, and couldn't see much fear, but was more curious.
Fang Changan comforted her for a few words, and found that she didn't seem to need it, so she didn't waste her energy. She carried her to the first floor and almost ran into Fang Changqing. She didn't have to say much and quickly signaled to escape.
There were already many people standing on the street. The side of Shen Mo and Wang Ke and the others who were not on fire looked inside without blinking. Seeing him come out, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang Chang'an put the little girl on the side of the road, and Fang Changqing, Song Mei and the others surrounded her, and Shen Mo and Wang Ke fell behind.
"Is it okay?"
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay."
Several girls were all full of concern. Fang Changan waved his hand, took a breath, looked back at the person who escaped after him, and the woman holding the child was also there.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then he saw Shen Mo crying behind him through Song Tang and Liu Bei beside him. Wang Ke held her hand tightly, looking like he was about to cry, and was trying his best to endure it.
He thought what was wrong with the two little girls, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Fang Changqing, Song Mei and the others turned around and looked. The two little girls shook their heads together. Shen Mo wiped the tears from his face hard, and Wang Ke also wiped the corners of his eyes and showed a smile. The tears that had not fallen just now surged out.
Fang Changan realized that the two of them were scared, and most likely they were scared by themselves. He smiled at them and was surrounded by people, with a lot of thanks.
On the second and fourth floors, the people who escaped first did not know who was knocking on the door. Now that they knew, they all thanked them.
"It's okay... Do you know the house that caught the fire? I just called the door but didn't respond..."
Fang Chang'an waved his hands and refused. The fire on the second floor was still burning. In fact, when he discovered it just now, the fire was already very big and he didn't hear any cry for help inside. Fang Chang'an did not have the courage to rush in to inquire about the situation. He felt a little guilty when he heard so many people thank him.
The male owner of the family opposite the second floor thought for a while and said, "It should be someone..."
"Nothing happens!"
"Two old men and a child..."
"That should be a sound?"
Fang Chang'an heard that someone was inside, and was stunned for a moment. Then he saw a noise from the crowd next to him. A car stopped on the street. Before the car could stop, a middle-aged woman came out inside. Then two people came out from inside, as if they were from the street office, shouting to organize firefighting and evacuate the crowd.
Fang Chang'an then breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that someone had already introduced the situation, he stopped staying for a long time and said to Shen Mo and the others: "Go to our side first, and wait until the fire is extinguished before going back."
Several girls all had pajamas and nightgowns. Although it was night, they were somewhat not very elegant. And when they were shooting the door, Fang Chang'an was worried that the worst situation would happen, so he didn't want them to be scared.
Song Mei nodded and said to Fang Chang'an again: "You go and wear shoes too, I see that your feet are bleeding."
Fang Changan looked down and then realized that his feet were hurt a little, and he was naked, and he was a little embarrassed, so he followed him upstairs.
After rinsing in the bathroom, he found that his feet were cut and there were two wounds. Fortunately, they were not serious. After cleaning, they wiped them clean. Fang Changqing had a band-aid, so he helped to apply them.
Everyone was still in shock. Paying attention to the situation outside the window, the fire truck also arrived, stopped by the roadside, and the firefighters began to fight the fire desperately.
At this time, the fire had further expanded and burned upstairs. Fortunately, several girls lived here for a short time, and there was nothing on the balcony. The third floor did not expand further. Instead, the balcony on the fourth floor burned, but it was quickly extinguished.
After the fire was completely extinguished, it was almost two o'clock in the morning. Fang Chang'an originally asked several girls to sleep here, but no one was still sleepy and they were unwilling to sleep. So he didn't say anything and watched the fire be put out together.
During this period, the police arrived and four people were lifted out of the fire and covered.
Fortunately, the girls didn't look by the window at that time, and were finally not scared.
What's more troublesome is that the police quickly came to the door based on the guidance of passers-by. Fang Chang'an, as the first person to discover the fire, needed to cooperate with the investigation.
He asked several girls to go to bed first, and then Fang Changqing accompanied him to the police station, made a record, and explained the situation truthfully.
"You are doing the right thing. If you open the door rashly and oxygen enters, it may make the fire even more powerful and may even explode..."
The attitudes of several police officers at the scene actually made Fang Chang'an a little unhappy, because he asked himself that this matter was a meritorious, but when he treated him, he felt that he was not involved in saving people, but involved in crimes, so he had to go to the police station.
However, he did not have much extravagant expectations these days. Fortunately, the two police officers who took the transcript had a good attitude, which won the impression of many grassroots service staff.
After finishing the transcript, Fang Chang'an asked about the casualties. The police officer who took the transcript sighed and gave a brief explanation. Then, he was probably worried that he would feel guilty and comforted him softly.
Another younger policeman next to him sighed and said, "There are a lot of fires recently!"
"Oh, there is no way, it needs to be vigorously rectified..."
These are not something Fang Chang'an can participate. After receiving re-praise and thanks, the police drove him back again.
It was already past three in the morning.
Fang Chang'an returned to the downstairs and used his cell phone to "send" a message to the two girls: "I'm back, hurry up and go to bed, be good."
After waiting for a while, two messages came back over there with the same message:
"Um."
