Chapter 288: Robbing the Dormitory Building at Night, Why Not Wait Until Dawn!
"Principal Wang, what happened?"
The moment the call was connected, Dean Zang asked anxiously.
The Wang Shili displayed on the phone is the principal of Shuguang Hope Primary School in Shishan Town. The students in this primary school are basically left-behind children from poor families.
Whenever Principal Wang calls Dean Zang, it is because of students' health and disease problems.
Principal Wang, who even subsidizes almost all his salary to students in order to improve their food and hygiene conditions, has always given Dean Zang a sympathetic admiration.
Less than 40 hours after the earthquake, Dean Zang always had a bad intuition when he called...
"Dean Zang, I am Zhang Yumei, the head teacher of Class 53."
"Our Principal Wang... was crushed in the ruins of the school. It seems... his legs can't be saved."
"Can you send someone here... to save our principal?"
"Dean Zang, I beg you, you are the only one who can help us now..."
A woman's voice on the other side of the phone, suppressing her sobs, quickly recounted the reason for the call.
"Principal Wang...Principal...You can't sleep, Principal..."
"Beep...beep...beep..."
The shrill shouts could be clearly heard in the entire office through the powerful microphone of Dean Zang’s elderly machine.
"Dean Zang, let me go!"
Director Liang and Lin Yi said in unison.
On-site rescue is a responsibility that the medical rescue team must shoulder. If a doctor retreats in such an emergency, then he should not participate in the rescue at all.
"Let's go together!" Director Liang looked at Lin Yi and said happily, "I will solve the orthopedic problems, and you will be responsible for the trauma. The injured will have a greater chance of survival."
"Okay! Let's go together."
Lin Yi did not reject Director Liang's proposal. When encountering a difficult fracture problem, the other party must take action.
"You two prepare first aid tools, and I will drive you there. I know the road well..."
Dean Zang glanced at Lin Yi and Director Liang gratefully and immediately started making arrangements.
Five minutes later, the three of them gathered outside the gate of the health center with all their equipment, got into Dean Zang's oldest black Santana, and rushed to the location of Shuguang Primary School by the moonlight and black headlights...
"We are still about 200 meters away from Hope Primary School. The road ahead is completely blocked. We need to bring our equipment and walk there."
Santana stopped in front of a collapsed 4-story turret. After Dean Zang and Lin Yi explained, they opened the trunk and started to get first aid tools.
"There are bricks and tiles under your feet. You must turn on your flashlight and watch the road under your feet."
"This is a shortcut. It will save at least half an hour than taking a detour to school. I'm afraid Principal Wang won't be able to hold on."
After once again reminding the two of them important precautions and briefly explaining the reasons for taking this road, Dean Zang turned on the flashlight and stumbled forward...
"Slow down, Mr. Zang."
Lin Yi and Director Liang looked at each other, put their equipment on their backs, and quickly followed to the left and right sides of Dean Zang, holding up each other's arms without saying a word.
The soles of his feet were full of bricks and tiles, mixed with various steel bars and debris, which would be troublesome if he stumbled over Mr. Zang.
"Ouch..."
Director Liang suddenly exclaimed, causing the three of them to tilt their bodies to the right.
"Are you okay, Director Liang?"
Lin Yi hurriedly asked from behind Mr. Zang, shining the flashlight at Director Liang's feet, but couldn't see clearly because of the debris.
"I'm fine...just my ankle is twisted."
Enduring the excruciating pain in his ankle, Director Liang continued to limp forward with Mr. Zang.
Every time I take another step, the cold sweat on my back increases...
"Dean Zang, are you Dean Zang..."
The three of them stumbled over a 10-meter-high rubble mountain when a flashlight shone from not far away, and then there was a rapid female cry.
"Teacher Zhang Yumei, it's us..."
As soon as he heard this familiar hoarse voice, Dean Zang responded immediately.
When Shuguang Hope Primary School brought their children to the health center for medical treatment, it was either Principal Wang Shili or teacher Zhang Yumei who came. Dean Zang would never mishear this voice.
"Dean Zang, you are here, Principal Wang... Principal Wang has fainted..."
After hearing the confirmation voice and recognizing Dean Zang in the middle with the help of the faint light of the flashlight from a distance, Zhang Yumei couldn't help it any longer and stumbled towards Lin Yi and the others with a cry.
The only one who can save the principal now is the doctor. She must take Dean Zang to the scene of the incident as soon as possible...
"Teacher Zhang, these two are first aid experts sent from the Provincial Central Hospital. You should take them over immediately to rescue Principal Wang."
After the two sides met, Dean Zang pointed to Lin Yi and Liang Dazhuang on the left and right, and motioned to Zhang Yumei to take them over immediately to rescue them.
"What are you looking at me for? Leave now. I'll be careful and I'll be there soon."
After seeing Zhang Yumei's concerns, Dean Zang quickly waved his hand to drive them away.
"Then...Mr. Zang, slow down, let's go rescue people first!"
Zhang Yumei looked at the gray-haired Dean Zang, gritted his teeth and turned around sharply.
"Two experts, be careful and try to follow me."
Then he called Lin Yi and Director Liang and hurried towards the school.
But after all, it was a devastated earthquake disaster area. No matter how anxious Zhang Yumei was, she had to choose an easy-to-travel route and move forward while ensuring safety as much as possible.
The hope of rescuing Principal Wang was within reach. We couldn't let the two doctors get injured because of the rush. That would be a case of haste makes waste...
"Teacher Zhang, what is the current condition of the injured? Please describe it to us in advance."
"When we get to the scene, we can also prepare in advance."
Lin Yi, who was following Zhang Yumei, looked at the back of the female teacher who was wearing a Dacron plaid shirt, was covered in dirt and had an extremely thin skeleton. Without affecting the speed of travel, he began to ask about the current condition of the injured.
"Principal Wang..."
Teacher Zhang choked up, his feet suddenly lagged, and he instantly returned to his normal speed.
"Principal Wang was hit on the thigh by a floor slab, and the uneven steel bars inside the floor slab pierced his thigh, and the blood almost flowed into a small puddle..."
"We used up all the cloth, so we could barely see the blood seeping out. Just now, Principal Wang couldn't be woken up no matter how hard we called..."
From the twitching shoulders of Teacher Zhang in front, Lin Yi could clearly see that the other party was suppressing extreme grief, and only then could he explain the current condition of the injured person in a fragmented manner.
"Doctor... Doctor, you must save our principal..."
"I've told him that the children who were not found must have gone home."
"When the professional rescue team arrives tomorrow morning, they will definitely find out the situation..."
"Principal Wang just won't listen. He went to dig through the ruins of the dormitory building without our knowledge in the middle of the night."
"He has worked for 36 hours without sleep and has rescued more than 20 students..."
"As a principal, this is already very competent. Why can't he wait until tomorrow morning?"
"Those children are so pitiful. Their parents can only see them once a year. Principal Wang has already treated them as his own children..."
Zhang Yumei didn't know why she said these things, which had nothing to do with rescue.
She only knew that if she didn't say it now, she would have to suffocate herself to death...
