Chapter 211 Report of safety
Seeing their numb, panicked, or helpless expressions, Lin Xi and Lin Dayuan had forgotten about going home and only wanted to do their best to help them.
When they woke up the next day, they set off again with the rescue team, which included two firefighters and driver Wang Dafu.
Yesterday, the rescue team refused to let Lin Xi go with them, and only agreed after Wang Dafu persuaded her.
I was also amazed by Lin Xi's performance along the way.
Not only is she strong, but she is also incredibly agile. There was a child hanging in a tree who was too scared to jump down, but Lin Xi quickly climbed up the tree and carried the child down safely.
That's why the two firefighters were extremely enthusiastic today.
The weather is still quite hot, and after a day of high temperatures, the air is filled with a damp and rotten smell.
That smell came from animal carcasses, and also from humans...
The golden rescue window is 72 hours. Today is the third day. If the trapped people are not found in time, their chances of survival are slim.
Lin Xi looked around. Ever since she started wearing the contact lenses given to her by the system, her eyesight was better than that of ordinary people.
Suddenly, she shouted, "Wait! Go that way! Hurry!"
Firefighter Wang Yu had already witnessed Lin Xi's sharp eyesight, so he immediately sped up and headed in the direction Lin Xi pointed.
Lin Xi grew increasingly anxious, "Faster!"
Wang Yu was covered in sweat. "That's already the fastest speed I've ever gone!"
This was the first time Lin Dayuan had seen his daughter so anxious. "Xiaoxi, what's wrong?"
"Dad, that iron tower over there is going to collapse! There are people on top of it!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu became even more anxious and charged headlong towards the tower.
Just as they were about to arrive, Lin Xi's heart sank. Oh no, it's too late!
She quickly ate a Cyclone Reed and jumped off the speedboat.
"Xiao Xi!"
"Little Xi, my dear sister!"
"Lin Xi!"
Those behind her were horrified, but thankfully, Lin Xi didn't fall into the water and jumped onto the suspended roof of the car.
Without any hesitation, she immediately jumped from the roof of the car to a tree trunk not far away, and then from the tree trunk to the suspended wooden plank.
Everyone held their breath, watching with trepidation.
Lin Xi kept leaping on the water's surface, jumping onto the tower in a few quick leaps, and swiftly climbing upwards like a nimble monkey.
At this moment, the assault boats also approached, and the iron tower creaked and groaned as it gradually tilted towards them.
A pregnant woman was sitting at the top of the Eiffel Tower, holding a child in her arms.
The pregnant woman saw the little girl and, though amazed by her agility, choked back tears and cried out, "Run! This tower is going to collapse! It will crush you! You all have to run!"
Lin Xi's eyes were firm as she gradually moved closer to the pregnant woman. The iron tower was tilting at an increasingly steep angle. At this distance, even if she managed to rescue the pregnant woman and jump back onto the assault boat, she would be hit by the iron tower. Ignoring the risk of being exposed, she quickly stuffed a butterfly-feather honey bean into her mouth.
Wang Yu, Wang Dafu, and the others watched as Lin Xi pushed off with both feet, leaping dozens of meters to the top of the tower, their mouths agape.
This...this is just too unreasonable!
That's jumping from bottom to top! Wouldn't a normal person fall down?
Before the pregnant woman could even react, Lin Xi, fearing she might hurt the baby in her womb, had already found the perfect angle and, as she jumped over, scooped her up in a princess carry, saying, "Hold on tight."
The pregnant woman held her child tightly, too preoccupied to be surprised at how the child had managed to jump over the tower or how strong the tower was, as it was rapidly falling.
Even though the assault boat was about to be hit, no one tried to drive it away. They all looked up at Lin Xi, believing that this little girl could create another miracle.
But it still exceeded everyone's expectations. Lin Xi carried the pregnant woman and jumped off the iron tower, landing steadily on the assault boat in an extremely illogical way.
"Come on!"
Wang Yu was already prepared. The assault boat shot off with a whoosh, followed by a loud crash and splashing water that soaked them completely.
Looking back, they saw that the spire was only a few meters away from them.
The pregnant woman was the first to react, crying, "Thank you all. I was prepared to die."
She looked at Lin Xi and said, "Little girl, thank you!"
His eyes were full of sincerity and emotion.
"You're welcome. How's your stomach? Are you alright?"
The pregnant woman wiped away her tears and smiled gently, "It's alright, you've taken good care of me."
"By the way, did you learn martial arts from a young age? My husband is in the army, and I've seen them train before. You're even better than the special forces."
"Uh, yes."
There's no other way to explain it than this.
Meanwhile, Wang Yu and the others kept replaying the scene in their minds: Lin Xi had actually made a turn in mid-air as she was falling!
What kind of martial art is this? Is it some kind of light-body skill?
……
After the rescue operation ended, Lin Xi and Lin Dayuan stayed behind and worked with the support team to clear the mud to facilitate the transport of supplies. The consequences of this disaster are ongoing, and the post-disaster reconstruction will take an unknown amount of time.
Fortunately, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, the circuit signals were being restored one by one, and Lin Xi was finally able to contact her family.
My phone has had no signal for the past few days. I wonder how worried Grandma and Grandpa are. And my master and mistress have probably found out by now. I haven't been in touch with Huo Chuan for several days; I wonder how he's doing...
Lin Guiying was indeed frantic with worry.
At this moment, Lin Guiying, Lin Guojun, Fu Wenyuan, and Wu Jingshu were sitting on the sofa, each holding a mobile phone, their eyes bloodshot, staring intently at the television.
Even though the torrential rain had stopped and the disaster area was being rebuilt, two people went missing.
Each of them made numerous phone calls to Lin Xi and Lin Dayuan, but after four days, none of them were able to get through.
The only way to get news about the two of them is by watching the news on TV.
At that moment, a rapid ringtone suddenly sounded in the quiet villa. All four of them looked at Lin Guiying's phone, and Lin Guiying answered it reflexively, "Hello, Xiaoxi!"
The voice was trembling.
Lin Xi sensed her grandmother's anxiety through her tone, and her nose tingled with tears. It was her fault; she should have secretly flown to another city that night to let her grandmother know she was safe.
"Grandma, Dad and I are helping out in Jiangsu Province. There's no signal here, so we can't make calls. I'm sorry, Grandma, for making you worry."
The expected barrage of insults did not come.
A gentle and loving voice came from the other end, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright. When... are you coming back?"
Lin Xi felt a little guilty. "Grandma, let's stay a few more days. We're short-staffed here, and there's still a lot we need to help with..."
"Okay, then you must be careful. Grandma will be waiting for you to come back."
Lin Xi could sense the disappointment in her grandmother's tone. She wished she could fly home right now, but looking at the truck stuck in the mud not far away and the volunteers with blistered hands and drenched in sweat, she could only suppress her longing. "Grandma, don't worry, Dad and I will go back as soon as possible."
Also, Master and Mistress already know, right? Please tell them for me that I was wrong. Also, I miss you both very much…”
Lin Xi sniffled, while Lin Guiying and the other three on the other end lowered their heads and wiped away tears.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Guiying and the others were lost in their emotions and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time. "We miss you too, Xiaoxi."
Lin Dayuan: Doesn't anyone care about me?
Lin Guiying breathed a sigh of relief and forced a smile, saying, "It's alright, as long as the child is alright."
Lin Guojun frowned in displeasure. "Why did you hang up so quickly? I haven't even said anything yet."
"Alright, long-distance calls are expensive."
Fu Wenyuan slapped his thigh and said angrily, "That unfilial son! I haven't even scolded her yet, and she's kept it from me completely. An apology is all she wants?"
After his worries subsided, Fu Wenyuan became increasingly angry. He knew that Fu Wenyuan already knew, but instead of calling him himself, he immediately dialed Lin Xi's number.
