Chapter 32: I'm Waiting for You on the Way Home

The elevator descended layer by layer, and soon stopped at the ground floor with a "ding" sound.

Song Ju'an took the lead in stepping out, and Si Wei followed behind him.

It wasn't until he was outside that he stopped and said just two simple words, "Let's go."

After saying that, he really kept walking away until the person behind him shouted his name.

Song Ju'an's figure froze and looked back.

The little girl who had been standing there was walking slowly towards him, and the gaze that fell on her moved with her small figure.

Song Ju'an didn't know his intentions, and he still didn't mean to stop until Si Wei stood in front of him.

He was stunned, his waist was gently hooked, and his chest was slowly tapped.

Sway, who was only as tall as his chest, pressed her ear to his left chest, listened to his somewhat disjointed heartbeat, and said, "Remember what I said to you when we met?"

Song Ju'an didn't understand what she was referring to.

Suddenly, Si Wei repeated: "I tell you, pay attention to safety when you go out on a mission." ”

As he spoke, the hand behind his waist slowly moved to his back and patted him twice, which was comforting: "In my eyes, you are a living person, not a lonely ghost." ”

If you're running to a raging fire, you're not going to go any further.

The answer is yes, because you remember the oath you took when you joined the team for the rest of your life, because that is faith and glory.

Through the hardships and dangers, looking forward to a new life, if you have walked through the way back is lonely and bleak, then I am willing to see your flowers and applause.

I'll be waiting for you on the way home.

Song Ju was touched in peace of mind, like a beam of light shining into the dark abyss that no one cared about, the warmth that had not been seen for a long time.

He reached out and rubbed the top of her soft hair, silently thanking her.

The two hugged for a while, and the people who passed by and entered the building cast a meaningful gaze, and Si Wei put down his hand and retreated.

"Stay safe on the road. She said lightly.

Song Ju'an hooked his lips and nodded, and did not stop any longer.

On the way back, Song Ju'an bought a box of shaving cream by the way.

This thing had never been used before, and when he held it in his hand after settling the account, he always felt that this thing didn't match his identity as a rough man.

In the evening, Song Ju'an walked into the camp with his car keys, and saw someone running in the playground from a distance, approaching Zheng Yan.

Zheng Yan saw that he didn't run away, and talked to him through the iron gauze: "Captain, don't you come back tomorrow?"

"Talky!" Song Ju'an clasped his hands to his chest and snorted coldly: "Don't lie in the dormitory on Sunday?"

"I can't be idle, let's talk about practicing more physical fitness, and strive to enter the fire with the captain next time. Zheng Yan scratched the back of his head and smiled innocently.

He has been assigned to the team for two years, and when he encounters a fire in a building in the community, he is downstairs every time to deploy water transfer.

He knew that on the one hand, it was a lack of ability, and on the other hand, Jung Sik didn't want him to take risks.

The brothers don't communicate much in the team, but Zheng Yan knows that the brother cares about his safety.

Song Ju'an didn't say anything, and asked him to practice hard before leaving.

——

On Monday morning, Song Ju'an changed into a clean blue uniform, washed his face and began to shave.

Zheng Zhi came in with a washbasin and saw a "white-bearded young man" standing in front of the mirror meticulously shaving.

"This isn't your first time on camera. Zheng Zhi pointed out the key point comparison, "Why are you so particular?"

"The image must be there, in case those young men who want to participate in the firefighting, see my stubble and dispel the idea, it is a loss. Song Ju'an said very seriously.

Zheng Zhi sat on the edge of the bed and changed his shoes: "I'm too lazy to care about you, you know what the reason is." "It's a tone that sees through and doesn't say it.

"Of course I know, but it's you, who are usually very wise in front of me, why can't you hold a girl. Song Ju'an casually mentioned it.

"What do you mean?"

“......”

The two had nothing to say.

Shaved off his beard, Song Ju'an wiped his chin with a towel, "Supervise the training of those boys today, especially the new ones, you have to keep an eye on them." ”

"Got it. Jung Sik put on his hat and went out.

——

At ten o'clock in the morning, the bookstore began to set up, the room was emptied, the tables and chairs were rearranged, the two little girls from the photography department set up the camera, and the video clips prepared in advance were checked and verified.

Siwei walked out of the subway station and clicked on the morning news, which reported the search and rescue progress of the Wensi Hotel at the top:

As of 0:00 on the same day, 16 days and 07 hours after the accident, the last trapped person was found, and there were no vital signs when rescued.

How tenacious life is, how fragile it is, these two points can be effectively confirmed in the face of natural and man-made disasters.

The collapse of the hotel and the subsequent accountability are also inevitable, which is a consolation for the lost lives.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the three people interviewed arrived, and the boss welcomed people in at the elevator entrance, and after entering the bookstore, he closed the door of the inner room, and the four of them sat down.

The interviewees were a detachment leader and two squadron leaders, the detachment leader was very talkative, and the boss had done his homework beforehand, and the two talked a lot about professional content.

Before the interview began, Siwei helped Song Ju'an wear a microphone.

As her hand slid behind his waist with the transmitter, warm breath skipped through the back of her neck, as if on purpose.

His fingertips touched the man's strong muscles through the fabric, and Si Wei unconsciously sped up, installed the transmitter, and then asked for a small microphone.

The firefighting uniforms of the three were tightly buttoned and could only be pinned at the neckline.

Si Wei raised his head and saw Song Ju'an listening carefully to the leader's speech.

She stood on tiptoe and stared straight at his collar, and as she saw that she was getting closer and closer, she was almost there, but her calf went limp, and all her work was lost.

She was so depressed that she held her breath and was about to try again, but she saw the man's tight jaw twitching weirdly.

At this moment, no one paid attention to this, Si Wei was stunned, and his eyes moved up, and he saw the faint curvature of someone's lips.

She was still suspicious, and Zhou Chen's voice came from her ears.

"Siwei, I'll say goodbye to Captain Song. He had a smile on his face.

Si Wei gestured to hand him the microphone, but Song Ju'an grabbed it and said with affinity: "I'll do it myself." ”

With that, he was already fine.

"Then let's get started. The boss said at this time.

Si Wei bowed politely to him, and sat on the sofa behind the camera with Zhou Chen to listen.

The interview began with a brief self-introduction, the detachment leader gave a brief explanation of the rescue operation arrangement, and the two squadron leaders talked about the emergencies they encountered in the search and rescue operation, and the most mentioned was the secondary collapse.

This is followed by an edited footage in which dozens of police dogs from various districts search through the rubble, barking at the trainers as soon as they find signs of human life.

They walk in sharp rubble and their limbs are infected.

In the face of the second collapse, there were search and rescue workers who were pressed under the boulder pile in order to save the survivors, and when the exit was dug open, he had already died, and the subtitles showed that he was only 21 years old.

Si Wei stopped his pen and shifted his gaze from the projection screen to Song Ju'an's face, where he sat upright, his hands flat on his knees, his contours were hard, and his eyes were deep and reverent.

In the solemn atmosphere, everyone's chest was hot.

The expansion is five minutes long, and ends with the search and rescue workers saluting their comrades and seeing them farewell, and the desolation behind them is full of desolation, but the group of people shines brightly.

The first half of the interview lasted more than half an hour, and during the break, Swila opened the door and went out.

She walked into the bathroom, closed the door and hid inside, feeling uncomfortable in the bottom of her heart.

She admits that she is slow to perceive the emotions of others, but after she really came into contact with the profession of firefighter, her former calm and wooden personality has changed.

At first, she was just a little uncomfortable in the face of Hou Guang's injury and discharge, and the little girl committing suicide and falling into the water.

And now, Xu has personally experienced life and death, and every time he sees those who forget to die and the impermanence of life and death, his mood fluctuates greatly.

The feeling that cannot be calmed down for a long time is just like the deep pain brought to her by her father's death to save people many years ago.

In the narrow space, there is still a smell of smoke coming to the nose, and even though it is a women's bathroom, there are always people secretly smoking in it.

After sorting out his emotions, Si Wei turned the deadbolt and was about to go out, when a phone call suddenly came from outside.

"Today is an interview with a firefighter... That's right, it's just for the Wence Hotel, it's hot......"

Something said on the other end.

"Sister, how good do you think firefighters are now, they are all people who can't go to school, come from society and are useless to do that, and the soldier brothers on TV are not the same as them. ”

Answer over there.

"If you want me to say, it's better to look good than to cast well, firefighters like them, when there are disasters and difficulties, the media blows into the sky. After the limelight has passed, everyone is not going their own way, who cares what their situation will be in the future. ”

After a few more conversations, the call ended.

Si Wei walked to the washstand with an expressionless face, and flushed his hands with boiling water: "I heard that you are leaving?"

The female colleague glanced at her with some surprise, after all, Siweilai had been in the company for a month, and rarely had too much contact with other people except for work.

"Yes, my father's relationship made me enter the TV station, after all, I studied post-editing, and in the final analysis, there are too many restrictions on the development of our company. ”

The female colleague fiddled with her wavy roll in the mirror and sighed: "Now there is no relationship in this society, it is really difficult to mix, not to mention those who have no education and no background, even if they live in vain in this life." ”

Si Wei turned off the water, raised his eyes lightly, and looked into the eyes of the female colleague in the mirror: "Then according to you, what kind of life is valuable?"

There is a deep meaning in these words, but on her face, she still has that undulating expression, "When you despise those professions that stick to the bottom, where do you put yourself? You have a wide range of vision, but your thinking is too narrow and ugly."

"What are you talking about......"

Si Wei interrupted coldly: "They have families behind them and their own lives, what they do is what you dare not do and can't do in your life, what capital do you have, and you can claim to be superior here to evaluate the value of these people?"

Si Wei approached her, her face ugly: "Colleague, it stands to reason that I shouldn't have said this to you, but you have also seen that in the collapse of the Wence Hotel, there were also search and rescue personnel killed, and their faith in guarding with their lives should not be trampled on by people like you at will." ”

She is not tall, but the cold and vicious aura exuded from her body at this moment makes female colleagues dare not refute.

Si Wei stared at her deeply for a moment, and then walked straight outside.

She didn't go back to the bookstore, and sent a message to Zhou Chen, saying that she wanted to write a manuscript and went back to the studio next door.

Si Wei sat down in his chair, his forehead hanging on the table, unprecedentedly restless.

In the past, she would choose to ignore the same discussion, but she vented it in one go.

"Siwei, are you not feeling well?" asked the editor on the side softly.

Siwei slowly straightened up, smiled and said it was okay, and quickly got back to work.

It may be that with the blessing of a dull state of mind, this 3,000-word long draft about Wentz's search and rescue was completed very smoothly, and Siwei sent it to Zhou Chen after checking it.

The interview ended at five o'clock in the afternoon, and the people were sent away, and several departments inevitably got busy, grasping both video and audio, until more than eight o'clock in the evening, and finally all of them were completed.

After getting off work, Zhou Chen finished the meeting and hurried to the outside of the building.

Siwei was stopped, and seeing that he was in such a hurry, he asked if there was a problem with the manuscript.

Zhou Chen pushed his eyes up, and the first sentence was to ask: "Wouldn't you be tired if you were asked to write such a long manuscript alone?"

Sway: "No. ”

Her coldness made Zhou Chen uncomfortable, and she strengthened her guess before she came, and said without thinking: "Siwei, if you don't get used to it, you can tell me, and I will make changes." ”

His words had no beginning or end, Si Wei was stunned, and after self-understanding, he said: "You are the editor-in-chief, and I have no objection to all work requirements." ”

"I'm not ......"

Before he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly interjected from his side: "Isn't it?"
