Chapter 283: It's Not Over Yet
It wasn't until half past five in the morning, when it was overcast, and the king pigeon didn't know how many times it had run, and when he returned to the scene again, the rescue work was converted to the second stage, and few people were carried up from under the rubble by rescuers.
To be precise, there are very few living people.
And the Grim Reaper at the scene has long since disappeared, and Wang Ge knows that either the people who are still under the ruins have nothing to do and will not invite the Grim Reaper. Either that, or the people below have already died, and the Grim Reaper will extract the soul and take it away, and will not wait in the same place.
Of course, the fact that a person is still alive for more than ten hours under the rubble can be called a miracle, almost negligible. The situation on the scene must be the latter.
After counting the number of people, the number of victims and the number of rescued people add up, and the number of people in the whole village is about the same, but there are still about ten people missing, and the search and rescue personnel have used small excavators and bulldozers, but they are still carefully carrying out the operation, after all, there is still hope.
The rescue work at the scene has also changed from the first stage of saving people's lives to the second stage of saving people's property safety.
As for the safety of this property, it is estimated that there is nothing to salvage.
Household appliances and household appliances have long been damaged in the rubble, and it is not known whether those who have lost will receive compensation for the government's poor governance. In modern families, even most people in the countryside will know that they can't put too much cash in their homes, recruit thieves, and can't keep it if it's not safe. Most people still turn their money into cards, or passbook certificates and keep them at home.
These things can be reissued, but it doesn't matter.
And some families died in this disaster, and naturally there is no compensation or not, everything has gone with them.
The rain here continued for several days, and it didn't stop completely until midnight last night, when the sun glowed red on the eastern horizon. The rain stopped, the cumulonimbus clouds were gone, and the sun shone straight down to the ground without any shelter, and from the morning there was a sign of the midday heat.
On the contrary, it began to rain in the urban area of Xiangsha City at three or four o'clock in the morning, and it seemed that the cumulonimbus clouds from this side traveled eastward and drifted into the urban area.
Despite several days of heavy rain, the morning air here is not refreshing. Of course, there is no smell of decomposing corpses and blood at the scene of mass deaths and injuries.
After all, the bodies of the victims here have been properly kept and sent to the funeral home in batches to be claimed by other relatives, and the injured have also been sent to the hospital in batches after initial rescue. There were no other patients in the tent except for paramedics and a few people with minor injuries.
Moreover, due to the timely arrival of medical staff, the possible outbreak at the site has also been effectively controlled, and the smell of potassium permanganate and disinfectant water is everywhere.
The local villagers and nearby villagers who helped the rescuers for a night were also persuaded by the rescuers to retire one after another, and those who went to the hospital went to the hospital and those who went home went home.
It's just that few of the people involved in the rescue will actually rescue their relatives.
Many of them, most of whom knew each other from the same village, but by the time they really dug into the bodies of their own family members, the bodies had already lost their souls, were no longer warm, and would not have any response to their cries and cries.
Tragedies happen every day, but such tragedies are rare. Wang Ge sat in the ambulance, and the last time he ran on the road, he fulfilled his promise and sent the blind Wang Jiaxin to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Yaxiang for temporary hospitalization observation.
Although it was already three or four o'clock in the morning when she ran this trip, Wang Jiaxin still slept very deeply and did not wake up. The king pigeon was a little glad that the child didn't know how to toss when he woke up.
But the child will not sleep forever, and she will have to face the fact that her parents have died one day.
Moreover, her eyes are also a big problem.
Her parents have died and she is now without a guardian, and nurses and government officials have been searching all night in hopes of finding the rest of her family by the next morning, at least the child will wake up with only familiar relatives with him, and maybe he will feel better.
But to everyone's disappointment, Wang Jiaxin's parents are only children at home, which means that Wang Jiaxin has no relatives such as uncles and uncles. Wang Jiaxin's parents got married relatively late, so Wang Jiaxin was naturally born late. Her grandfather and grandmother died of illness long before she was born.
The staff found a few distant relatives, and called in the middle of the night, but no one answered the first few of them, and when they picked it up, they were annoyed, claiming that they didn't know what the little girl named Wang Jiaxin was, and don't come to trouble in the future.
It's understandable that you're far away, and you don't want to recognize it. And it's a phone call in the middle of the night, and the phone is too hurried, and the staff may feel that they are being treated as a liar by others, so they plan to wait until the day to communicate with those people and explain things clearly.
For Wang Jiaxin now, it is really a good thing to have a relative.
The king pigeon closed his eyes and leaned his head back on the back of the driver's seat of the ambulance.
Behind the driver's seat is the rescue compartment, and there is a partition in the middle, so the entire seat can only be fine-tuned at an angle, but it cannot be almost completely flat like ordinary vehicles, so that people can lie down and rest.
The king pigeon pinched his waist, rubbed his neck, and made a slurping sound in his mouth, which was unbearable soreness. He hadn't slept for more than 30 hours, he hadn't eaten from nine o'clock in the evening to five or six o'clock in the morning, he was hungry and growling, but he could only drink tea to satisfy his hunger, and his legs were almost swollen, and he had made many trips to the toilet.
The king's eyes were swollen and couldn't be opened, and they were full of red bloodshots, as if they had pink eye, and they were extremely dry. But Wang Ge knows that he can't rest yet, and even if there are no patients on the scene, there are still doctors. What's more, new wounded people can be found here at any time.
"Master Wang, come down and do a favor!" Zhou Hua suddenly came to the driver's seat of the ambulance and knocked on the window glass of the door on the driver's seat.
The king pigeon was almost confused, and instantly sobered up, "Doctor Zhou, you haven't left yet?"
He hurriedly opened the door and jumped out of the car, and followed Zhou Hua to the back of the ambulance, with a stretcher on the opposite side, surrounded by three armed police soldiers, and nurse Tian Yuqing.
"Get out of the way, don't pile up here, the sick need air. Tian Yuqing pushed the three armed police soldiers aside, not polite at all, and was piercing the high-glucose infusion needle ordered by Zhou Hua just now into the vein on the back of the patient's hand.
The armed police soldier dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, but he was a nurse or a woman, what else could he say?
"Doctor, this is our brother, you must not let him have an accident!" said an armed police soldier.
The three armed police soldiers were pushed by Tian Yuqing, and Wang Ge saw that the stretcher was actually an armed police soldier wearing camouflage uniforms.
China's soldiers, that are the people's soldiers. When rescuing at the scene of such a disaster, the military is always on the front line. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, are well-trained, resolutely obey commands, and have an indomitable spirit of sacrifice.
Moreover, in the process of rescue, they often use some medical knowledge learned in the army, which can be said to be the most suitable labor force to participate in the rescue.
For the common people, Chinese soldiers are the real guardians of the land and tranquility.
"Don't worry, it's not a big problem, it's just that I haven't eaten for too long, and I lost too much heat from the rain, and I fainted in front of my eyes. Put on some glucose, inhale oxygen for a while, and wake up later. Zhou Hua waved his hand to reassure those armed police soldiers.
"But to be on the safe side, we'll go to the hospital and do a detailed check-up. Zhou Hua waited until Tian Yuqing finished the needle, and together with Wang Ge, he lifted the cart from the ambulance, moved the patient to the bed, and sent him directly to the car.
As expected by the king, there is still a possibility that patients can be found at any time, but these patients are not just from the victims, but from the rescuers.
The group got into the car, and the three armed police soldiers galloped away under the watchful eye.
"Doctor Zhou, are there any of our people at the scene?" Wang Ge didn't find anyone else at the scene, nor did he see other vehicles, and thought that everyone else had evacuated in advance.
"It's gone, it's just me, Oda, and your ambulance. However, the medical equipment in the tent is still ours, and someone will come and collect it by about the afternoon. Zhou Hua took off his glasses, leaned back on the seat, and let out a deep breath. "I guess we don't have to come back this time, and the scene is almost done. ”
"This night has passed, it's really ......" Tian Yuqing inhaled oxygen to the patient, thought about it, and went on ECG monitoring. Anyway, the troops pay for it, and multiple guarantees are still good.
"How many people have been saved?" asked the king pigeon casually.
"Where's that know...... All I know is that there are more than 60 corpses in the morgue tent that were dug up from below, almost a third of the population of this small village. It's really miserable. Zhou Hua rubbed the bridge of his nose, he had been wearing glasses for a long time, and the bridge of his nose had already been deeply imprinted because of the pressure of the glasses gasket, and he didn't take off his glasses all night, this place hurt even more, and when he took off his glasses, he seemed to be much better.
"I can rest for a while when I go back!" Zhou Hua stretched and yawned, and at the same time his stomach screamed. Not long after Zhou Hua came out of school, he still had a little immature aura on his body, although he looked about the same age as Liu Ya, but the seriousness on his body was much less than Liu Ya's, and he was still the kind of student who was lazy.
"You can rest, I still have two hours to get off work. With a bitter face, the vehicle began to enter the city and cross the Orange Island Bridge.
Thanks to the morning rush hour of seven o'clock, there are not many vehicles on the bridge, and if it is half an hour and forty minutes late, it is estimated that the ambulance will not be able to walk.
"After this batch of patients are admitted to the hospital, it is estimated that in addition to the patients who go to our hospital for emergency care, the command center should not assign too many outpatient tasks to us. Your ambulance driver is busy, but our doctor can't be busy. Hospitals also don't have that many beds. I guess by the time we get off work at 8 o'clock in the morning, nothing big will happen. Zhou Hua leaned on the seat with his eyes closed, although there was a patient in the car and he couldn't sleep, but the patient's condition was not serious, and it was still okay to rest and rest.
Before Wang Ge's car arrived at the hospital, the unconscious armed police soldier woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then wanted to sit up violently.
Fortunately, Tian Yuqing's eyes were quick and he held him down in time, so he didn't let him tear off the needle on his hand.
"It's okay, we're in the ambulance. You just had low blood pressure and blood sugar and fainted. Let's go to the hospital for a check-up, and if it's okay, we'll let you go back to the army and rest. Tian Yuqing comforted.
The armed police soldier licked his chapped lips, his throat was a little dry, and he couldn't hear the first two words clearly, so he said again, "Nurse...... Nurse, this can't be done, my comrades-in-arms are on the front line, I'll go back to the army to rest, isn't that an escape?"
"This is not a war, you don't want to fight a war, I don't care. The rescue is terrible. I am a doctor, and I am responsible for your life. Look at the way you look now, what else can you do when you go to the scene? I promise you'll faint if you swing the shovel twice! Cause trouble to others, and be ashamed. Zhou Hua opened his eyes, and to deal with disobedient patients, he had to intimidate.
Tian Yuqing covered her mouth and snickered, she didn't expect that Zhou Hua, a hairy boy, was quite decent when he was fierce.
The armed police soldier was more than nineteen years old and less than twenty, and he was also stunned, and he was really bluffed, "Doctor, I won't die, right?"
Tian Yuqing touched the forehead of the armed police soldier, "What you can't die is that you haven't eaten for too long, haven't drunk water, can't keep up with nutrition, and your blood pressure and blood sugar are a little low." Just rest and rest. ”
Tian Yuqing is a girl after all, her hands are as soft as bones, silky and white, and the armed police soldier instantly felt cold on his forehead, and he was so comfortable.
Tian Yuqing is beautiful again, the armed police soldiers don't know how long they haven't met a woman, now it's like being in heaven, lying motionless on the bed, not saying a word, thinking that when I go back to the army, I must talk to the group of people who have never seen the world, I met the gentle and beautiful nurse lady, and they touched my forehead with their hands.
Zhou Hua laughed dumbly beside him, Tian Yuqing's trick was more effective than what he said.
"Nurse Tian, it will save me a waste of words in the future. Zhou Hu said with a smile.
Tian Yuqing glanced at him and didn't speak again.
The big battle seems to be over, and the atmosphere on the way back seems to be a lot more relaxed, the patients in the car are not serious, and even the accelerator under the right foot of the king pigeon has relaxed a lot.
He didn't know that in the next few days, there was still another and more brutal battle waiting for him.
