As the New Year approached, more and more work was done. Mo Yiyang gave up all the social activities and rushed to the work and hospital every day. Although he hired a special nurse to take care of Xiaoxiao, he still felt uneasy. No matter how busy he was, I will take the time to make a phone call to inquire about the situation.
????????? Xiaoxiao sees all this and remembers it in her heart.
In the evening, Mo Yiyang came to the ward again. He was still holding his briefcase in one hand, raised his other hand and said, "Guess what I bought you."
Xiaoxiao put down the magazine in her hand and looked at it, "What? I can't guess."
"I heard from Comrade Feng Zhen that someone loves chocolate truffles the most, right?"
"Yeah, yeah, director, you bought me truffles, thank you."
When the box was opened, Xiaoxiao drooled as she looked at the row of milky and tempting chocolates. She quickly took one and stuffed it into her mouth without biting, letting the truffle slowly melt in her mouth and playing with it gently. The tongue becomes whatever shape you want it to be, and the whole mouth is filled with the fragrance of chocolate.
"It's so delicious." Xiaoxiao couldn't help but put her thumb and index finger into her mouth and sucked it in one go, not wanting to waste any of it.
Mo Yiang looked at her with a smile. There was a little bit of dark brown chocolate on her upper lip. She hadn't noticed it yet, but that look was particularly endearing. "Hey, don't be greedy if it's delicious. It's not good to eat too much. With high-calorie and high-sugar food, you may become a fat person."
Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and complained, "Director, there is no one like you. If you buy it for me to eat and say things like this, then I won't be able to eat it happily, so I might as well not buy it."
Mo Yiyang put away the box and put it on the bedside table, "You can only eat one pill a day."
At this time, the nurse Aunt Chen came. She was carrying a thermos cup. This was the chicken soup that Mo Yiyang had told her to make specially. Aunt Chen was sweating profusely and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Mo, I'm sorry. Too late."
"It's okay, it's just time for dinner."
Seeing Aunt Chen's panting look, Xiaoxiao asked doubtfully: "Auntie, why are you in such a hurry? Is there anything at home? If you have anything, you can go and do it. I'm fine."
Aunt Chen smiled, took a breath and said, "It's not that there is something wrong at home. When I passed by Honglian Community, I saw a fire in the community. Several fire trucks, police cars, and ambulances were at the entrance of the community. The road was so blocked that I saw that it was almost time to eat, so I didn¡¯t look too much. But I heard that someone had died. An old lady in her sixties and her six-year-old great-grandson were trapped in the house and burned to death. Alas. , it made me panic. Look, the news will be broadcast in the evening. If there is such a big fire in a residential building, the higher-ups will take it seriously."
After hearing this, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but break into a cold sweat behind her back, "Honglian Community, my home is there, Aunt Chen, which community is Honglian Community specifically?"
"It seems to be in the third district, at the intersection, near the stadium."
"Honglian District Three." Xiaoxiao's chest twitched, "My family lives in Honglian District Three Quickly, go to the news station."
Mo Yiang frowned and quickly took the remote control and turned on the news station. The fire was indeed being broadcast live on the TV. The situation on the screen was chaotic. Honglian District 3 is an old community, all of which were built in the 1990s. On the upper floors, the building in the picture was billowing with thick smoke, and a string of sparks flashed through the thick smoke. Firefighters were doing their best to rescue the building.
Although there were many people and the scene was chaotic, Xiaoxiao recognized the supermarket she passed by every day at a glance, "This is my neighborhood. Oh my god, that building is on fire. My house is right there. How could it be on fire?" AhAunt Chen, you really heard that someone died."
Aunt Chen nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I felt very uncomfortable when I heard it. You said that this is the New Year, who doesn't want to reunite and celebrate the New Year? There were many people standing there crying at that time. I guess their relatives are still there. in."
Suddenly, a pair of ambulance workers carried the injured person out on a stretcher. Although it was unclear who the injured person was in the picture, and the extent of his injuries could not be seen, as soon as someone was carried out, screams from the crowd could be heard. The sound and crying were all heart-shaking. Xiaoxiao felt her stomach churning, "vomit" She couldn't help it anymore, so she threw herself to the bed and retched.
Mo Yiyang hurriedly picked up the trash can and gave it to her, stroking her back again and again, "Is it okay? Come on, have a drink of water."
Xiaoxiao shook her head. She didn't spit out anything. She just felt flustered. Extremely flustered. She seemed to have thought of something, but she wasn't sure. She looked at Mo Yiyang suddenly.
Even Gu Xiaoxiao thought of it, and Mo Yiyang would of course think of it too. He frowned even more tightly, took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I'll go find out, Aunt Chen, you take care of her. "
Mo Yiyang got up and leftAfter leaving the ward, Xiaoxiao faced the trash can and retched uncontrollably. She felt like her intestines were about to vomit out.
"Hey, Director Guo, what's going on with the fire in Honglian District 3 that's being broadcast live on the news?"
"Oh, I'm paying attention too. Our Public Security Bureau has sent two teams to provide support. We just received news that someone set a fire. The suspect was smoked and fell in the corridor where the fire started. He has been caught and is being escorted back. On the way."
¡°Which wolf-hearted person did such a cruel thing? How many people will be harmed?¡±
"Yeah, well, my head is big."
"Director Guo, you have to work hard, so I won't bother you."
"Hey, okay, thank you for your concern."
After hanging up the phone, Mo Yiyang's suspicions were basically confirmed. This so-called suspect was probably Fang Zhong. Only Fang Zhong would obey Liu Wen's orders without distinction between right and wrong. Rather than saying that he was Liu Wen, Wen's husband is better said to be a dog raised by Liu Wen. He will really do whatever he is asked to do.
He saw Xiaoxiao inside through the crack in the door, and his face turned pale with fright.
"Ah," Xiaoxiao shouted to the doctor, staring at the TV screen with her eyes wide open. She covered her mouth with one hand and pointed at the TV with one hand, her eyes filled with fear.
Mo Yiyang hurriedly ran in. The scene of the fire on TV was simply horrifying. The injured person being carried out of the fire scene was covered with a white cloth. A stiff arm was exposed, and the flesh and blood were blurred. Although the scene was quickly cut away dropped, but the scene was still broadcast.
Aunt Chen next to her was also dumbfounded. These are real human lives.
Mo Yiyang reached out and covered Xiaoxiao's eyes to prevent her from looking, and turned her face towards him, "Stop looking, stop looking, Aunt Chen, change the channel quickly."
Aunt Chen was stunned, cold sweat continued to break out on her forehead, and her eyes were moist.
Xiaoxiao buried her head in his waist, hugged him and shook her, "Don't change, I won't look, I will just listen. This is my home."
Mo Yiyang sighed deeply and comforted: "Fortunately, my uncle and aunt have returned to their hometown."
"It's not lucky. How lucky is that there are so many people living in the building. Most of the people who stay at home during the day are the elderly and children. There are so many innocent people" Xiaoxiao thought of Grandma Zhang who lived upstairs. Grandma Zhang As she gets older, her legs and feet are inconvenient. In the summer, she can occasionally be seen going downstairs to move around. In the winter, she is basically invisible. Her son and daughter-in-law are both at work. What should I do if there is a fire?
, "But I heard that someone died. An old lady in her sixties and her six-year-old great-grandson were trapped in the house and burned to death. Oh, I felt panicked."
The more Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more frightened she became. Her stomach was churning. She pushed Mo Yiyang away, threw herself out of the bed and retched.
The fire has been burning for more than four hours and has not been extinguished. The sky is getting darker and the open flame in the middle of the building is more clearly visible. The reporter on the news said: "I just got the news that the firefighters found a gasoline barrel in the corridor. This It was a man-made fire, my God, this is really unimaginable, and it has brought great harm to people's lives and property safety."
The sky has completely darkened. Judging from the picture, the open fire has completely disappeared, and the thick smoke is still billowing out. It is very obvious under the searchlight. The firefighters are still doing their best to rescue, and the number of casualties has not yet been counted.
The nurses outside are all discussing, saying that the burn department of the hospital is now in a mess. It has received more than 20 injured patients at once, and there is not enough manpower to support them.
Mo Yiyang patted Xiaoxiao on the head and said, "You eat well and I'll go out and ask around."
"How can I eat it? I don't even know what my family is like."
"You have to eat even if you can't eat. You are not alone now."
"What."
"Um, cough, cough, I mean, you need to supplement your nutrition now, and you should eat as much as you can."
Xiaoxiao still shook her head, not having any appetite at all, "Let's wait a while. Eat when you're hungry. I really can't eat now."
There was another scene from the host announcing on the TV, "Dear viewers, the police captured the arsonist of this fire as soon as possible, Fang Zhong, he"
The host was introducing, and a frontal photo of Fang Zhong was posted in the upper right corner. Mo Yiyang paid attention to the host's introduction. Except that he did not introduce the relationship between Fang Zhong and the Liu family, everything else was mentioned.
Suddenly, the phone rang. It was Xiaoxiao's. She quickly took the phone and saw that it was Gu Zhongwei. She pressed the call button and started crying, "Dad, our house is on fire. Our house is gone. Die." A lot of people"
As soon as Gu Zhongwei saw the news, he called his daughter as soon as possible, "Xiaoxiao, just be okay., scared us to death" He quickly said to the people next to him, "Dad, Mom, Lihua, our baby is fine, okay. Hey, Xiaoxiao, where are you now? Are you with Director Mo?" "
Xiaoxiao cried and nodded, "Well, we are together. I am fine, but our home is gone."
"As long as everything is alright, Xiaoxiao, you must pay attention to your safety when you are alone."
"I know." She didn't dare to say that she was in the hospital, she didn't dare to say that she had a ruptured Achilles tendon and had surgery, and she didn't dare to say that she was kidnapped and almost died. "Dad, you and mom stay at your grandparents' house. Come on, I¡¯ll go there during the Chinese New Year, I¡¯ll definitely go back.¡±
"Okay, we are waiting for you. Everything is fine in our hometown, ah."
Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and shed a string of tears, "Yeah."
