I remembered this incident, and as soon as I arrived at the unit the next day, I found Xiao Gu and invited him to dinner at night by the way.

When the thin man heard this, he also went.

"Xiao Gu has helped us so much, it is long overdue to ask him to rub it. Book a private room and let's go together. ”

The other three agreed. Guo Yujie took the initiative to book a restaurant, and her energy was much more active than when she was working.

As soon as I made an appointment with Xiao Gu and hung up the phone, the thin man asked me about Qin Yijuan.

"It's a teacher at my sister's school, and a graduating student found the school yesterday and wasn't very happy." I said vaguely, "The little girl listened to some rumors from the school, and my mother was worried, so she had to ask me to inquire." ”

"Oh, that's right." Guo Yujie nodded, "Your sister is in the eighteenth middle school, right?" ”

"Yes."

"Is there that kind of student in the eighteenth middle school?" Guo Yujie asked curiously.

The full name of the eighteenth middle school is the eighteenth middle school of Minqing City, and the first seventeen closed down, merger, merger, and restructuring of the first 18 middle schools were retained, and it became the first batch of key high schools in the city. There are about 40 key high schools in the city, each with its own characteristics, and the 18th middle school is known for its excellent character and learning, and to put it bluntly, the students of the 18th middle school are very honest.

I didn't read the eighteenth middle school, and when I was a student, I followed my classmates to laugh at the good baby in the eighteenth middle school. Now watching my sister study in the eighteenth middle school, I feel completely different, I just think that the eighteenth middle school is really good, and the child is taught how well-behaved.

"What's so strange about that? Where are there not a few black sheep? The thin man was unimpressed.

The phone rang.

The fat man answered the phone, and after saying a few words, his expression changed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the four of us.

"What's wrong?" I stood up.

"Okay, let's get over here." The fat man said into the phone, hung up the phone, and told us: "Director Mao called, something happened in the six villages of workers and peasants." ”

"What's the matter?" I asked, taking something.

Guo Yujie and the others also hurriedly packed up and carried their bags.

The fat man sighed, "There was an explosion in a building, it should have been caused by a gas leak." ”

We gasped in unison.

"Are there any casualties?" I asked.

"I don't know yet. The fire brigade is coming to the rescue. The fire in the building has not been extinguished. The fat man was worried.

"Which building?"

"I didn't have time to say it."

"I'll go and tell the old leader, you go drive first."

I went to the old leader's office and reported the matter to him.

The old leader's face was solemn, "I'll go with you." ”

Six people have to drive two cars. I called the skinny man and asked them to sit in one, and I drove the old leader with me.

This matter has nothing to do with our demolition and relocation office, but it is not too small. If the damage is not severe, it will have no impact on the demolition. If the building is seriously damaged, and there are serious injuries or even deaths, when the time comes for the demolition, the attitude of those residents will definitely change. From a human point of view, as well as from a work point of view, I hope that things are not serious, and that it is best if there are no casualties.

But when the car drove to the sixth village of workers and peasants, I felt a sigh in my heart.

The black smoke and the tongues of fire that burst out from time to time made people feel heavy. In the distance, I heard a cry. I couldn't see the extent of the damage to the building because of the smoke, but as you can imagine, the explosion was definitely not small.

"Gas explosion?" The old leader frowned.

yes, how could a gas explosion blow up like this? It doesn't look like a gas explosion, it's several!

The thin man and they arrived first, and after the old leader and I squeezed into the crowd, we saw Guo Yujie waving at us. The thin man and the fat man were talking to Director Mao.

I only noticed at this moment that the building that exploded was the one where Tao Hai lived, and this discovery made my heart sink again.

"How?" The old leader asked.

Chen Xiaoqiu had a straight face, "The fire brigade is rescuing, the people on the first floor have been evacuated, and the explosion occurred on the fourth floor." ”

"Haven't you been rescued from the second floor up? How long has it been? The old leader frowned.

"It's been almost an hour."

The old leader was even more surprised, "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know. Director Mao and the others couldn't say clearly. At first, it was suspected that it was a gas explosion, but the fire could not be extinguished, and the smoke was billowing inside, and the fire brigade could not rush to the second floor. ”

"Then how can it be that the second floor has not come down from the top?" The old leader asked suspiciously.

I thought of Tao Hai's cornucopia and had a bad premonition.

Chen Xiaoqiu and Guo Yujie couldn't answer this question.

"Where's the ladder?" The old leader turned his head to look at the fire truck.

"The water is spraying until now. There is also one on the other side. ”

"What's in a residential building, why can't this fire be extinguished?" The old leader's face was gloomy.

The thin man and the fat man walked over, said hello to the old leader, and told them what they had just learned. In fact, it's similar to what Chen Xiaoqiu said.

"Director Mao said that the residents here are all ordinary, and there are no suspicious people." The thin man said.

I anxiously looked at the building that was smoking, thinking about the old leader's question just now.

It's not a chemical plant, how can there be a fire in a residential area that can't be extinguished for so long? There are no suspicious people, so normal residents don't pile up a lot of chemical raw materials in their homes, what is the matter with this smoke and fire that can't be extinguished?

In the thick of smoke, mist, and firelight, I saw a man standing at the window and immediately screamed.

"What's wrong, Brother Chi?"

"There's someone!" I pointed to the fourth floor.

The crowd looked over.

The old leader narrowed his eyes, "Where?" ”

All four of them had black faces. The thin man hit me directly with his elbow.

I was taken aback.

"Is it still there?" Chen Xiaoqiu asked.

I opened my mouth to see their expressions, then at the person standing at the window, and suddenly I couldn't speak. I have been to the six villages of workers and peasants a lot, and I can tell at a glance that the position is a staircase, but according to the slope of the staircase, this person has to be three meters tall to stand in that position, so that I can see half of his body. Look at the silhouette, it's a man, and all I see is an outline.

"Look at the flowers, huh? The smoke is relatively large. The fat man said.

The old leader turned his head to look at me.

"Hmm. It's gone. I think it's a flower. I said with a hard bite to say.

The man was still standing by the window, not moving. It's not normal to think like this. Either I was dazzled and saw something in the smoke as a person, or ......

My heart beat a little faster, and I subconsciously tried to make out the outline.

The fire brigade's water cannon sprayed into that window. Probably because of the explosion, the glass windows of the entire building were shattered, and the windows became large holes. The water sprayed in, and a little smoke was washed away, and I saw that the silhouette showed the appearance of a human being, and the face made my scalp tingle. Because that's Tao Hai! Tao Hai stood at the window blankly, drenched with water, and didn't react at all. No, he's not standing at that window, he's floating at that window! And he was slowly descending, as if in an elevator, from the fourth floor to the third floor without hindrance, exposing his feet in the stairwell window on the third floor.
