Chapter Twenty-Four: Rubbing Rice
I got approval from my superiors and immediately signaled them to quit the fire.
As I thought, the fire grew bigger.
I anxiously circled around.
Seeing a figure appear in the ring of fire, he staggered towards the outside of the ring of fire, I hurriedly rushed forward and carried him out of the circle of fire.
I kept reassuring him, it's okay, it's okay, it's over.
I watched him burn his firefighting suit, and watched him cry through gritted teeth under the mask, refusing to let me utter a word.
I shouted for the paramedics to come over.
The moment he was carried on the stretcher, he gritted his teeth and said in the moment before he fell unconscious: "Lao Huang, I didn't take them out." ”
"I... It's useless! ”
……
A dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of me, and I wanted to fall backwards, but the person behind me held me up, and I pushed him away. Taking a deep breath, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, he walked up to the staff member who was still shirking his responsibilities and punched him hard. He was unsteady on his feet, he sat directly on the ground, I swept with my right foot and kicked him in the arm, he lay on the ground screaming in pain, I sat on top of him, clenched my fists and punched him in the face...
……
I was pulled away and sat on the floor, tears streaming down my face.
On that day, the whereabouts of more than a dozen firefighters were unknown and were reported by the media.
I was disciplined.
……
I sat in my superior's office and didn't listen to what he said.
I just kept smoking my cigarette, not knowing what to think.
It wasn't until my boss yelled at me that I woke me up.
I snuffed out my cigarette and stood up and said to him, "Anyway, they're still too young." ”
-----------------------------------------------------------
"I can die, I can be old and have nothing to rely on, I can be more miserable and have nothing, I can trade my life for their life... I should be able to. I'm sure I can! ”
The fat man glanced at Huang Yu in silence, and suddenly said, "Old man, do you have a dollar on you?" ”
Huang took out his wallet and rummaged through it, but he didn't find a piece, but shook off a few dime coins from his wallet.
The fat man picked up all the dime coins, blew them, and after drawing one dime from them, he returned the remaining coins and said, "Sir, these honorarities are sufficient." He turned back to the cat and said, "Give it back to the family, I have already received the honorarium." ”
He arched his hand at the old gentleman and said, "Old gentleman, I will take your job." ”
"Tonight at eight o'clock in the evening, bring their belongings, preferably hair or something."
"I'm here waiting for you to come."
……
The fat man stared at the tricycle, and Ah Huan, who was sitting in the back, asked puzzledly: "My income has been a little low recently, and I may not be able to eat at night." ”
"It's okay, wait for me to take you to dinner."
"Brother Chao, I still have some doubts."
"Why do you want to give the money back, right?" The fat man stared laboriously at the tricycle, which seemed to be unable to withstand the squeaking sound.
"Yes, since you only collect a dime, it is better not to collect it."
"But it's different, some things charge a dime, I think it's almost, but some things I think it's not enough to charge hundreds of thousands, millions."
"What to say."
"That's what people do, once the news that you don't charge money gets out, they will keep asking you for free help, and if I refuse, they will bargain with me for it."
"It's okay for me to help, and it's okay to ask me to take the job, but how to set the price is your own business, don't be afraid that the effort is not proportional to the income."
The fat man shouted Ah Huan's name and shouted, "Ah Huan! ”
Ah Huan looked at the fat man in a daze.
"There is no guilt, peace of mind is the place to be!"
……
The fat man and Ah Huan are in the same company, the company is thriving, going back and forth in suits and leather shoes, and the fat man and Ah Huan are somewhat out of place in uniforms.
"This company..."
Ah Huan looked at the signboard at the door, 'Shaohua International', and said to the fat man: "Isn't this Li Shaoping's company?" What are we here to do. ”
"There's nothing, there's no money to eat, eat a meal, and find something delicious for the cat by the way."
With that, he walked in.
The two came to the front desk and saw a beautiful young lady on the phone. They waited.
I didn't talk to me until I finished the call.
"Hello young lady."
"Let's look for Li Shaoping." The fat man happily accosted.
The front desk lady saw what the two were wearing and thought, "It can't be two liars." Some of the people who refused smiled and said, "Hello, two gentlemen, have you made an appointment with Mr. Li?" ”
Hearing this, the fat man and Ah Huan couldn't help but be stunned.
"What if you don't?"
"I'm sorry, we can't pass you on without an appointment."
"Oh, that's right, I'm sorry."
"It's fine."
The fat man and Ah Huan walked out of the door, looking at the pedestrians on the road, Ah Huan couldn't help but be a little confused.
He looked at the fat man and asked, "Brother Chao, what should I do." ”
"Oh, it's okay, let's wait three minutes."
So, the fat man and Ah Huan were silent about the passage of time.
Three minutes later, Ah Huan couldn't help but look at the fat man.
At the intersection, a car stopped at the door, and a young man of the same age as the fat man and Ah Huan walked down.
When he looked at the door of the company, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"We've been waiting for you for a long time." The fat man couldn't help laughing, thinking that this was Li Shaoping.
"I'm not going to join the company and wait."
"I can't get in."
"Did you report my name?"
"Yes."
"That's weird..."
"No surprise, we're here to eat and feed the cats." As the fat man spoke, a kitten came out of Ah Huan's arms.
Li Shaoping laughed and said: "I know, what's the matter, there's no money to spend at work?" Go, although I don't earn much, I still have money for a few meals. ”
"Wait." The fat man shook his head.
In an instant, I saw a car rushing out of the protective fence and crashing into Li Shaoping.
At this time, Li Shaoping, who saw this scene, was trying to dodge, but was caught by the fat man.
It seems that both of them are waiting for death to come.
But there was a loud bang that was deafening and resounded in the ears of the people around him.
It turned out that the billboard on the company fell on the car, and the car was stuck on the ground, and the people in the car, the airbag had been deployed, and blood was flowing on the head, lying on the airbag without knowing whether they were alive or dead.
Waiting for Li Shaoping to come to his senses, the fat man patted him behind him and said to him, "Wake up." ”
Li Shaoping woke up from his shock.
He looked at the fat man and Ah Huan as if he was speechless, only to see the cat in Ah Huan's arms jump out, point to the people in the car, and "meow" at Li Shaoping.
Li Shaoping immediately picked up the phone and called the police.
Only then did he turn around and look at the fat man.
The fat man said to Shaoping: .
"You can only respond, you can't hide; You can't hide. Shaoping. ”
