620 Mayor Emeritus

After the firefighters left, Liu Wei returned to the devastated mountains and forests.

The air was also filled with the smell of unflapped coke and moisture.

Liu Wei didn't dare to open the live broadcast room.

If the audience sees the scene in front of them, it is estimated that he is as depressed as he is at this time.

Walking in the scorched trees and grass, there is a "squeak" sound in my ears.

The voice was too harsh.

Liu Wei's mood was also affected and began to become frizzy.

He was almost unable to control his emotions, and despite the blessing of the potion provided by the system, his mentality was still on the verge of collapse.

To be precise, he is reluctant to regulate his emotions.

Repression needs to be released.

Charred snakes can be found everywhere on the ground like dry sticks.

The kangaroo, who had not had time to escape, lay on the edge of the tree trunk, its whole body had been charred, its face was hideous, the small head of its abdomen was also dyed a thick black, and its child was also killed.

The stiff arms were scattered horizontally in the "black mountain forest", unable to move or curl, as if they were shouting for help.

Liu Wei kicked casually, and it was a rare bird that was burned.

He stopped, sat down on the trunk of a tree that had fallen to the ground, tilted his head, and looked deep into the forest.

He didn't want to go inside.

He knew the scene inside was worse than it was now.

A sudden wildfire took tens of thousands of lives.

Repression!

Wandering in this lifeless, bleak mountain forest.

Refusing to disperse.

Liu Wei held his face with both hands.

A life suddenly appeared in the afterglow.

It's alive.

It's a wombat!

Liu Wei turned his head in surprise, and the wombat's round body stood in place, his eyes fixed on him.

Liu Wei recognized these eyes.

Hurriedly walked up and hugged the wombat.

The wombat's eyes stared straight at Liu Wei, blinking, clear and wet.

Its mental activity at the moment is as complex as Liu Wei's, but it can't express it.

It should have come to thank Liu Wei, thank Liu Wei for fulfilling his promise, although the result was a little sad, at least the family was saved.

When the dry season is over and a heavy rain falls, the place will be rejuvenated.

"Are they all alive?" asked Liu Wei, hugging the wombat.

The wombat kicked his stubby leg twice, and Liu Wei understood what it meant and put it down.

It took Liu Wei back to the edge of the cave, and the edge of the cave was also miserable, but there were many traces of animal activity.

In the charcoal dust on the ground, there are walking footprints.

This should be the luckiest thing to do.

Liu Wei couldn't control it, he cried with joy, holding the wombat's big furry head, and rubbing his forehead against it, "You're amazing, my friend!"

He believes there are many other Tasmanian wombats that lived here who helped the creatures that fled before the fire.

Liu Wei was moved by this animal affection that transcends race and food chains.

The wombat sat with Liu Wei on the stone at the edge of the cave for a while.

The thick smoke and fog in the sky were pierced by the sun's rays, and the sunlight revisited the mountain forest, hitting Liu Wei and the wombat's faces.

The wombata stands up with its front half upright, its neck on the stage, its nose upturned, and its eyes fixed on the sun.

It sees hope again.

"There's nothing more enjoyable than hope!" Liu Wei stretched out his hand to smooth the wombat's hair.

It stared at Liu Wei's side face for a long time.

When Liu Wei jumped down from the stone and said goodbye to it with a smile, it quickly crawled back to its cave.

It doesn't like this parting.

This wildfire has caused it to lose too many friends.

Say goodbye to yin and yang!

It didn't go deep into the cave.

After Liu Wei left, he crawled out of the cave and quietly looked at Liu Wei's back.

The back disappeared from its field of vision, and it raised its head again to stare at the sun, closing its eyes slightly, feeling the temperature of "hope".

At noon, Liu Wei returned to the town.

The townspeople, who had been away for three days, rushed back one after another.

They likewise gathered in the streets.

This time I didn't go to discuss the wildfire, but to welcome Liu Wei, a firefighting hero.

The mayor of the town brought everyone to Liu Wei's warmest applause and cheers.

Seeing the still alive wombats and the smiles on the faces of the town's residents, Liu Wei's suppressed emotions also dissipated.

Liu Wei said to the mayor: "You can count the salary of volunteers, and I will settle it for you immediately!"

The mayor smiled and said, "Liu, no need, the volunteer firefighters who participated in the firefighting this time only received a salary of 100 Australian dollars each!"

The volunteer firefighter standing next to the mayor smiled: "Liu, thank you, it was you who told us that it is everyone's responsibility to protect this home!"

Liu Wei shook hands with him.

The mayor of the town proposed: "Although Liu Wei is not a resident of our town, he has defended our home with practical actions, and I have hired Liu Wei as our honorary mayor in the name of the mayor."

In addition, the fire isolation zone opened up by this firefighting will be further improved and used as a long-term fire escape, and I propose to name it after Liu Wei!"

Liu Wei's eyes were stunned.

This is the rhythm of writing him into the history and genealogy of the town!

When Liu Wei went up the mountain, the mayor of the town took the government staff to organize the relocation of the residents, and the residents were very satisfied with his firefighting work this time, of course, he knew very well that the credit was on Liu Wei.

However, as the mayor of the town, he also has the obligation to lead, and when accepting his own recognition from the residents, he also mentioned Liu Wei as a young man many times.

The townspeople were incredulous at first, they couldn't understand why Liu Wei was doing all this thing.

However, they could not deny that it was Liu Wei's actions that protected their homeland.

They thanked Liu Wei.

No one stood up to refute the suggestion made by the mayor.

Liu Wei has an extra hometown in Tasmania, and when he looks back, the Jurassic jungle is his hometown.

The noisy celebrations in the streets were overshadowed by the sound of helicopter wings.

The crowd looked up.

The civilian helicopter that had participated in the disaster relief mission slowly descended outside the town, where the former temporary headquarters had been.

The inhabitants all walked in that direction.

Two acquaintances got down from the helicopter.

Stockton and his daughter Elena.

Elena's gaze immediately locked on Liu Wei, who was standing in the center of the crowd with a dirty face.

"Liu Wei, Liu Wei......" she shouted and ran over.

The voice was a little urgent.

walked up to Liu Wei, raised Liu Wei's arm, and observed him back and forth a few times.

"Are you hurt?" asked Elena, her voice eager and a little sobbing.

Liu Wei shook his head and took a few steps forward to greet Stockton.

Stockton pointed to his daughter and smiled: "I watched the video of the wildfire you sent me, and kept begging me to send her over, and the state fire department sent me a message that the wildfire was under control, so I brought her over!"

Liu Wei nodded and smiled, "Thank you, the cost of using helicopters to fight fires in the past few days, you give me an account number, and I will contact the studio to remit it to you later!"

Stockton shook his head and smiled, "Liu, I know you are a person of integrity, but those expenses are ...... for me"

He shook his head and said that he didn't care at all, "What's more, this is Australia, it's my country, I should make a little contribution, and the main reason for coming this time is her!"

Stockton's gaze looked at his daughter again, "Talk to yell! I'll be waiting for you on the plane!"
