Waiting for You in a City - Chapter 32
The smoke in the hospital passage was scattered, the water was all over the ground, and the busy place all year round was rarely empty at the moment.
Just after the fire drill, all personnel were evacuated. There were no patients in the ward, no doctors in the corridor, and no nurses at the nurse station.
Quiet and quiet, with a strange atmosphere.
Xu Qin went down the stairs quickly in his pocket and walked out of the inpatient department building, and saw everyone panicking into the street. And Song Yan, they have got on the fire truck and are driving out.
In the crowd of people against the current, Xiaoxi and Xiaodong took Xu Qin and walked out: “Dr. Xu, go to the street and avoid it.”
“The earthquake was so scary just now, are you afraid?” Xiao Nan exclaimed.
In Xu Qin’s memory of the earthquake just now, there was nothing left but Song Yan, his tall body, and his powerful arms.
Her perception of the earthquake clearly deviated greatly from those around her.
Only in the open field did she discover that the situation was serious.
Road vehicles are blocked, the streets are full of people, and the black ones are all heads. The people in the office buildings of the nearby commercial buildings all flooded the streets.
“What happened just now? What a horror!”
“Our office is on the 20th floor and we are going to be scared to death!”
“Is it an earthquake?”
“How could the Imperial City be an earthquake?”
“Will the earthquake continue?”
“What about then?”
“No cell phone signal! Whose cell phone has the signal?” Someone shouted. For a time, everyone looked at their phones.
“Really no signal!”
“How could this be?”
“Will there be another shock?”
Everyone’s tone was even more alarmed.
There was an aura of terror spread quickly on the crowded street.
Several doctors and nurses gathered together, anxiously waiting for the communication to resume.
The fire truck was slowly driving out of the crowd, and several firefighters leaned out of their heads and shouted, “Let one let it! Let one let it!”
Xu Qin heard Song Yan’s shout and looked at the fire truck, only then realized what he meant by the phrase “all returned to the team” shouted at the window.
For the earthquake rescue, the fire department must be dispatched first. Song Yan has long noticed that the situation is serious. This is to rush back to stand by.
The fire truck drove away a little bit, the crowd was still panicking, waiting for the exact news, and finally, I heard a shout from somewhere:
“Wangxiang earthquake!”
The crowded street suddenly fell silent for a second.
In the weird death, suddenly, a girl beside Xu Qin burst into tears and called her relatives while crying, but no one answered.
“My mother doesn’t answer the phone–”
The girl cried again and again on unanswered calls.
In all directions, crying came from the crowd.
People around nearby went around to comfort the crying person, saying that maybe the communication there was not restored, or maybe the family didn’t take the mobile phone.
Xu Qin looked back in the direction of the fire truck leaving for the first time.
Wangxiang, that’s where she and Song Yan had memories.
In the line of sight, there are traces of fire trucks.
Soon, the earthquake information spread rapidly along the social network-Wangxiang earthquake, magnitude 6.4.
Almost the entire county was razed to the ground.
Wangxiang was originally a county town under the jurisdiction of the Imperial City, which was the farthest away from the city center-100 kilometers, and was later placed under the jurisdiction of the Imperial City and placed under the jurisdiction of the Lin Province. Wangxiang County is located in the mountains, which is inconvenient for transportation, and both sides are neglected in management. The county is poor and backward.
The crowd on the street did not dissipate, and the argument was even louder.
When everyone called and brushed their phones to spread the news to discuss the disaster and the network was almost paralyzed, the soldiers and doctors acted first.
Song Yan and the fire fighters have hurried back to the camp, changing equipment, collecting equipment, and preparing to gather, only to be ordered by the superior.
And Xu Qin and his colleagues’ mobile phones were shaking at the same time when the communication was restored, and they came to notify them-they rushed to the big conference hall immediately.
The Third Military Hospital is a military hospital, and it is imperative to send medical teams to the disaster areas. The Dean held an emergency mobilization meeting, and faced hundreds of medical staff with a fervent speech.
The doctors and nurses under the stage all had solemn expressions.
Xu Qin was as usual as usual, and the president ’s so-called “party members”, “love” and “feelings” did not listen to her. But at the end of the short mobilization meeting, she went to the rostrum with other exhilarating colleagues, signed her name on the challenge letter, and selected the first team of her own.
Say how much she feels the same, not at all. But the word “save people” is written in the scope of her duties, not to be neglected, that’s all.
At this moment, Song Yan on the other side is ready to go. When the superior ordered the rescue of the disaster-stricken area, the fire officers and soldiers of the Ten Mile Squadron had lined up under the national flag.
Fifteen minutes after the earthquake, people on the street have not dispersed, and the public is still sharing information on social media.
The first batch of disaster relief medical teams of the three hospitals have been assembled, and before taking the oath, everyone has written seriousness and responsibility.
“I volunteered to go to the disaster-stricken area, and used my conscience and dignity to practise medical treatment to save people, save the dead and help the wounded, and work hard …”
Xu Qin calmly read the oath, and suddenly, somehow, she remembered Professor Xu’s criticism. The colleagues ’passionate oaths were still ringing in her ears. In a flash, she seemed to see the days she was studying abroad, as if she had seen the oath she had made: I will maintain the honor and tradition of medicine, and I will give human life Maximum respect. Even under threat, I will never use my medical knowledge to endanger human rights and justice. I swear solemnly and autonomously with my personality.
Xu Qinnian was thinking, and the lips started to get smaller and smaller, and people were silent inexplicably.
…
At the same time, the national flag flew under the blue sky on the playground of Shilitai Fire Brigade.
“stand at attention–!”
The officers and men held their heads upright.
Facing the national flag, Song Yan took all the fire officers and soldiers to make an oath before departure: “I volunteer, go to the disaster area for earthquake relief!”
The officers and soldiers unanimously said: “I volunteer, go to the earthquake relief area!”
“Overcome all difficulties and obstacles!”
“Overcome all difficulties and obstacles!”
“Fight against time to save lives!”
“Fight against time to save lives!”
“Observe orders and keep discipline!”
“Observe orders and keep discipline!”
“A solemn promise to every life!”
“A solemn promise to every life!”
“We will never give up!”
“We will never give up!”
The swearing vows of the soldiers echoed across the playground.
Song Yan: “Start!”
…
…
…
Wangxiang County is surrounded by mountains, and small villages scattered in the mountains and forests can be seen along the way.
The road to the township collapsed, and the transportation department was rushing to repair it. Xu Qin’s convoy went round the long way and arrived at the center of the township at dusk.
The simple and quiet town in Xu Qin’s memory no longer exists.
The whole town is like a huge garbage dump after the end of the day. There are almost no buildings and a shop intact. The winter sunset is shrouded in ruins and the silence is vast.
The villagers were ragged.
Some were stained with blood and sat at their door; some were rummaging over the ruins in order to find a little bit of property that had not been destroyed; some lost their loved ones, covered their faces and wept, and some howled; Lying on the road motionless, already a dead body.
Within ten seconds, a city was destroyed.
When the car traveled within 500 meters, Xu Qin saw a piece of orange, which was the firefighter’s rescue suit. A team of firefighters worked on the ruins of the collapsed supermarket, and soldiers in camouflage uniforms were helping.
“Slow down, slow down!”
“Carry it over there!”
“Pry up over there, pull over here!”
“Be careful not to crush his legs!”
It seems that someone was rescued,
“There are still people underneath!”
Too far away, Xu Qin narrowed his eyes and distinguished for a while, not Song Yan’s team.
More and more people go in.
One group of artillery company soldiers was distributing the first batch of air-dropped materials to the victims; another group of the People’s Liberation Army set up temporary resettlement houses on the school playground; Gather; more soldiers are scattered everywhere, looking for help, and helping the victims find survivors in their collapsed homes.
At this time, at the other end of the town, Song Yan was digging people in the collapsed hospital, and the surviving townspeople were helping. No one dares to relax for half a second, rushing for prime time for rescue.
Unable to get on the crane and bulldozer, Song Yan ordered the group to lift it with his bare hands and carry it on his shoulders; a dozen people stood in a row, and the bricks and cement were relayed out. Soon, the surface ruins were cleaned up by them, and within seven hours, seven wounded persons were dug out one after another.
But the bigger the concrete block is, the more complicated the load bearing is, and the deeper the people are buried.
The speed of rescue began to slow down.
There were cries under the ruins: “Save me. Save me.” Some could see the traces, some buried deep inside.
The sweat and dust on Song Yan’s head shouted in a dumb voice: “I won’t leave you behind!”
“Don’t be afraid, we won’t leave!”
“Save energy, don’t fall asleep!”
The police dog Xiao Meng found the nearest survivor and shouted with a wagging tail.
It was a young man, stuck with a pile of crushed stone in the gap under the prefabricated cement board, the other end of the cement board was pressed by a huge wall, and there were a lot of stones on the wall.
When Song Yan led people to study the solution, the young man under the ground cried in fear: “Can’t you save me? Don’t go, please, please.”
“I won’t go, I’ll save you.” Song Yan unscrewed a bottle of water and walked in through the ruins. “Don’t cry, drink some water first.” After that, wipe the dust on the young man’s face with his hands.
The wall is too big and too heavy to move or push.
No way, Song Yan called a few team members, first dig up the rubble, everyone jumped into the pit, together against the concrete precast slab, and then asked the team members above to smash the wall with a hammer.
When the hammer hit the ground, Song Yan, Yang Chi, and Xiao Ge Xiaofei carried the cement slab to the ground to prevent it from breaking down and smashing the survivors.
The manpower at the top is reserved and I don’t want to go down.
Song Yanren could not bear it: “Jiang Yi, you **** didn’t eat ?! How many people are waiting here?”
Jiang Yi and others had to hit the hammer with cruelty.
Lime debris fell face to face, Song Yan and they clenched their teeth fiercely without saying a word.
The boy knew what they were bearing for him and wailed.
“Don’t cry!” Song Yan wiped the tears on his face for him, “There is nothing to cry.”
The young man raised his left hand to wipe the tears himself, but the more sad he was, his right hand was pressed under a stone, blood dripping.
Song Yan beat on his shoulders one after another, chatting with him to distract him, lest he be more emotional and bloody: “What are you doing?”
“Doctors.”
Song Yan stopped for a second: “What subject?”
“surgical.”
Song Yan was silent.
“My hands won’t come back,” the boy cried.
“Today, there are many people whose lives can’t be saved.” Song Yan gasped slightly, saying, “I can’t do this, I can wrap, you are still young, and the most important thing is to live.”
The young man wiped his tears.
“It’s a man, and he has to find thousands of ways to stand up when he falls.”
The young man nodded crying.
Suddenly there was a loud noise, the wall was finally smashed, and Song Yan and others suddenly felt light on their shoulders.
“one two Three!”
The cement board was opened. Song Yan immediately lifted the gravel from the young man’s body and lifted him up from the bottom of the pit. The people above all stretched out their hands, took him over, lifted the ruins, and put them on a stretcher.
The townspeople immediately took him to the temporary emergency center.
Song Yan and others crawled out of the bottom of the pit, not taking care of the shoulder injury, and immediately rescued the next person.
And half an hour ago, Xu Qin and they had rushed to the temporary emergency center and quickly started working.
The emergency center was built temporarily by soldiers. Before Xu Qin and them, three medical teams had arrived. Because everyone works differently, there are too many injured people, and the scene was a bit chaotic, but fortunately everyone did their due diligence and responded quickly, but there was no delay in the condition.
Several large-scale operations are in progress in the temporary operating room. Xu Qin and other doctors received the injured in the clinic and did initial treatment.
The nurse who had a simple skin trauma was cleaned and bandaged by a nurse, and she was severely cut and lacerated to perform minor surgical sutures in situ. Just after a patient with a torn back was sewn with a needle, the thread was cut, and someone outside shouted, “Severe injury! Is there a surgeon ?!” is the doctor of internal medicine at the Second Military Hospital.
Xu Qin walked over immediately: “This way!”
The doctor led a group of townspeople, carrying a crushed young man with his right hand, his blood stained the stretcher.
Xu Qin: “Leave it to me.”
The boy was carried into the simple operating room, and Xiaodong Xiaoxi cleaned him before the operation. The young man was weak and crying sadly.
Xu Qin was doing disinfection work on the side, the young man kept crying, Xu Qin didn’t seem to hear it, until she was wearing gloves, she said lightly, “Don’t cry.”
Xiaodong and Xiaoxi were frightened at the same time and exchanged their eyes. Is Dr. Xu comforting?
She never conducts non-professional chats with patients before the operating table.
The young man asked, “Doctor, are you great?”
Xu Qin: “Well.”
“Then can you keep my hand? Let it be the same?”
Xu Qin put on a mask: “No.”
Xiaodong Xiaoxi: “…”
“Today, many lives have not been saved.” Xu Qin’s voice through the mask became even more plain.
The young man’s lips were pale, and tears shed more: “I am also a surgeon.”
The nurses present were stunned.
Xu Qin’s eyes were gloomy, and he walked to the operating table: “You are still young, and live well today.”
“I know,” the young man sobbed. “The brother of the firefighter who saved me just now said the same.”
Xu Qin was speechless and took the anesthesia needle handed over by Xiao Nan and injected it into his arm. Above the mask, her eyes were dark, extremely calm and unusually focused.
