It wasn't until she turned around to put her on the bed that she suddenly sensed something and woke up suddenly with a shock. She screamed and subconsciously hugged the man's neck tightly.
Zhuo Yilin knew that she was frightened by her nightmare, so he quickly comforted her: "It's me, it's me, don't be afraid, it's okay."
Fisher opened his eyes, turned his head and looked down, with lingering fear: "What are you doing? I thought there was another earthquake and I was going to fall into the abyss."
"Carry you to the bed to sleep." Zhuo Yilin explained softly, while bending down to put her down.
Fisher's heart slowly settled down, and he touched the bed under him, curious: "Where did the bed come from?"
"mine."
When Fisher heard this, he immediately wanted to stand up, but he quickly suppressed him.
"Go to sleep, it will be daybreak if you keep putting in the work. I'm very sleepy too. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow, okay?" His tone was hoarse, his eyes were scarlet, and the tiredness between his brows and eyes was heartbreaking.
Fisher lay down and asked softly: "What should you do?"
He turned his head toward the wall and chinned a little, "I also have a folding chair."
Fisher followed his movements and saw the army green chair leaning against the wall, and was about to get up again, "Then I'll sleep on the folding chair. I'm smaller, you sleep..."
"Shh..." Zhuo Yilin held her down again, his tone almost pleading, "Be obedient and sleep quickly, okay?"
The children inside turned over uneasily, obviously disturbed by their words.
Fisher couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only lie down, and used his eyes to signal him to quickly open the folding chair and go to bed early.
Zhuo Yilin nodded, turned around, brought the chair over, and placed it next to her camp bed.
Both of them slept in their clothes.
"Go to sleep, I'll stay with you, nothing will happen."
These words made Fisher feel warm in his heart, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
It turned out that he was so busy that he still came to see her because he was worried that she would not be able to sleep well at night.
Indeed there is.
From the time the earthquake happened until now, it still shakes from time to time every day.
From the initial panic, she has gradually adapted to it. Although she is no longer so scared, she still has trouble sleeping at night.
Zhuo Yilin lay down and saw her looking at him and slightly curling her lips. He also smiled warmly, then lightly opened his thin lips and whispered: "Close your eyes and go to sleep..."
The girl closed her eyes in response.
The man reached out and gently helped her pull up the blanket and cover her.
With Zhuo Yilin by his side, Fisher slept soundly this time.
But she didn't know that after Zhuo Yilin slept for more than two hours, there was a sudden movement outside.
Another survivor was found in a ruins, and the rescue team rushed to reinforce them. Medical care was needed.
Without saying a word, Zhuo Yilin quickly packed the first aid kit and set off quickly with the rescue team.
In the morning, Fisher was awakened by the noise around him.
When she opened her eyes, there was no one on the camping chair next to her. She sat up in a daze, completely unaware of when Dr. Zhuo left.
Traffic lines have been restored, relief supplies have been continuously delivered, and people in the disaster area finally no longer have to worry about food and drinking water.
Fisher followed the volunteers around all morning, transporting supplies and distributing them to various resettlement sites, while keeping an eye on Zhuo Yilin.
But I was busy until almost noon and didn't see him.
Although she had inquired with others and found out that he had set off with the rescue team to save people, the delay in seeing him back still made her feel uneasy.
After lunch, she was finally able to sit down and rest for a while. As soon as she sat down, the whole earth suddenly shook again.
"It's shaking again! It's shaking again! Take shelter!" Someone shouted loudly to remind him. Fisher instinctively stood up and ran towards the open area outside with the crowd.
"It's been several days, why are there still aftershocks!" A volunteer from out of town muttered in confusion.
A local said: "A few days is nothing. Some major earthquakes have aftershocks that last for months!"
"Hey, it's so scary..."
Fisher also felt that it was so terrible that his heartbeat could not calm down for a while.
Zhuo Yilin's delay in returning made her feel even more uneasy.
I don’t know if the aftershock just now had any impact on their rescue work.
Before I could finish my thoughts, not far away, where the rescue team was resting, a whistle was suddenly blown to assemble the team.
Soon, the news came.
It was said that the aftershock just now caused the damaged building to collapse a second time, rescuers were trapped, and a team was assembled to go for reinforcements.
When Fisher heard this, he was confused and had a bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be the place where Zhuo Yilin went to rescue?
After saying hello to the volunteers next to her, she hurried to chase the rescue team.
The person in charge naturally disagreed. After her repeated requests, they finally agreed to take her along.
The collapsed building was a three-story residential building located halfway up a hillside. The trapped persons were in a triangular stable area. The aftershocks caused a second collapse, making the triangular area even narrower. The rescuers who originally entered to rescue were also trapped in a triangular stable area due to the second collapse.
Collapse trapped inside.
When Fisher arrived with the rescue team, he saw a hanging bottle hanging above the ruins.
The other end of the hanging bottle leads to a small cavity under the ruins.
Two doctors and nurses were guarding the hanging bottles, while the remaining rescuers and large equipment were still trying to dig up the rubble.
Fisher looked around but didn't see Zhuo Yilin, and felt even more anxious.
"Comrade, where is Dr. Zhuo? I heard that he is with you."
The firefighter was busy and asked after hearing this: "Are you also a medical nurse?"
"No...I'm Dr. Zhuo's friend."
The firefighter then turned to look at her, his face covered with dirt was filled with sadness, and he turned towards the ruins: "Dr. Zhuo was trapped when he went to rescue people. We are trying to find a way to rescue him."
Fisher's mind was buzzing, and he looked at the ruins. His hands and feet were cold, and his heart was beating like thunder.
How could it be such a coincidence?
Does it happen to be Zhuo Yilin?
The firefighter continued to explain: "The lives of the survivors under the rubble are in critical condition. It is too difficult to rescue them here. We will not be able to rescue them for a while. Dr. Zhuo volunteered for help, thinking of getting in and rescuing the injured first as much as possible. Go in
It went smoothly, at least the glucose was injected, but when Zhuo Yilin was about to come out, he encountered aftershocks and collapsed again..."
Fisher was still petrified, unresponsive, and felt a coldness on her face. She thought it was raining again, but when she raised her hand to wipe it, she realized that it was her own tears.
"Then...how is he now? Go and save him quickly..." After coming back to his senses, Fisher almost cried when he spoke, and there was a buzzing in his ears due to panic.
"We're saving it. The structure over there is complicated, so you have to be careful, otherwise it will be more dangerous if it collapses again!"
Fisher didn't know what to say, so he turned around and ran to the rescuers, "Zhuo Yilin! Can you hear me? Zhuo Yilin!"
Zhuo Yilin was trapped under the rubble, with his back pressed by a beam and unable to move.
But he dodged in time, and it was good luck that the beam was not completely compacted, otherwise he would be dead right now.
Hearing the familiar voice outside, he raised his head in surprise, tried hard to look at the place where the light came in, and said with difficulty: "Xiaoxue! I'm here! I'm fine..."
"Zhuo Yilin!" Fisher cried with joy when he heard his response, "He's fine, he's fine!"
The rescuer said: "He is fine, he is just trapped and can't get out."
"Then you didn't tell me earlier!" It made her think that she was dead, and her heart died for a moment.
"..."
Fisher carefully reached the place where Zhuo Yilin was trapped, lay down on the ground and tried to look down. Through the light, he could vaguely see the man inside.
She cried and laughed, "Zhuo Yilin, how are you? Are you injured?"
Zhuo Yilin raised his head and saw her too.
His face was so dusty that his face could not be seen clearly, but he smiled slightly, showing his white teeth.
"I'm fine... I'm just pinned down and don't dare to move." He was afraid that if it wasn't compacted in the first place, if he moved around and it suddenly collapsed, that would be the end of it.
He had no choice but to lie still and wait for the firefighters to remove the heavy objects from the rubble.
"How are you? Are you injured? Does it hurt?" she asked, crying wildly.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt much. I'm lucky, the beam just fell on me and got stuck."
Fisher thought he was comforting herself, so her tears fell even more fiercely.
The rescuers didn't stop for a moment. They didn't have any equipment to use, so they all worked with their bare hands.
"Hold on, everyone is working hard, and we will rescue you soon!" Fisher warned, turned around, wiped his tears, cheered up, and joined the rescue team.
Her hands were already scarred, and now she was digging at the soil desperately. Soon, blood was oozing from her fingertips, and the gauze was loose and loose.
"Little girl, you don't want this hand anymore? Just have us here."
"I'm fine... hurry up, hurry up."
"Little girl, judging from your accent, you are not from here, are you?"
"I'm here for a trip."
"Then why don't you go back? Your family must be worried."
"It's okay. I told them to stay as volunteers."
"That's awesome, thank you!"
Fisher didn't want anyone to thank her. She just wanted to rescue Zhuo Yilin and not let anything happen to him.
It took her a lot of effort to wait until this elm knot came to its senses. God wouldn't be so cruel and would give her another life-and-death test.
The rescue operation lasted from afternoon to evening, and finally, when it was getting dark, we reached the bottom of the ruins.
The trapped person was a girl. Seeing that she was half-clothed, Fisher quickly took off his coat and covered the girl.
The girl was seriously injured and had been hungry for several days and nights. She was already at the end of her life. As soon as she was rescued, she was taken to an ambulance and sent to a large hospital for rescue.
Watching the girl leave, Fisher felt a little dazed.
I don’t know if she can survive such a young life...
There was movement behind her, and she suddenly came to her senses. She quickly turned around and saw Zhuo Yilin being carried out.
"Zhuo Yilin!" Fisher shouted in surprise and hurried over.
The ground was uneven and she tripped accidentally. She didn't even have time to cry out in pain before she got up and ran again.
Zhuo Yilin was awake and saw her fall and almost fell off the stretcher.
"Be careful!"
Fisher turned a deaf ear and ran over to hug him: "Zhuo Yilin! You're so scary! What will I do if you have any bad intentions?"
The stretcher was parked there, and she was holding the man lying on his back, crying, complaining, and slapping her, unaware of how many people were looking at them.
Unknown to everyone, there were media workers quietly taking photos on the sidelines.
