150: Fei saves Lu Yu
Jiang Fei drove her team at top speed to Fenglin Road.
Not finding the Patrol Team, Jiang Fei contacted them via walkie-talkie: "Your exact location."
"In the alley north of Maji Candy Store."
Jiang Fei floored the accelerator and sped over.
The four team members in the car were about to vomit.
Does the Rescue Team drive so fiercely? It felt like their brains were about to be shaken out. Suppressing the urge to vomit, the four quickly got out of the car to help.
A overturned, wrecked car was wedged at the end of the alley.
There was a gap between the car and the side wall of the alley, just wide enough for one person to squeeze through.
The team member guarding the spot saw Jiang Fei arrive with her people and pointed at the car.
"Lu Yu and a child are pinned underneath!"
Jiang Fei's breathing instantly quickened a few beats. Maintaining her composure, she squeezed through the gap to check the situation.
There were no missing limbs or broken bones as she had expected.
The alley wall happened to block the car, providing Lu Yu with a narrow space where he could curl up.
A little boy, about five or six years old, was held tightly in his arms.
The accumulated sand and dirt almost reached the child's chest.
The space was too small for even the child to crawl out, let alone an adult like Lu Yu.
They could only find a way to move the car.
Jiang Fei backed out of the gap, unable to resist glancing at the team member referred to as "Third Brother":
"They are trapped there, not pinned under the car."
He actually reported false information!
Third Brother explained dryly: "I was too anxious at the time... Actually, the meaning is pretty similar..."
Too lazy to argue with him, Jiang Fei returned to the car and took out two individually packaged medical protective masks, two goggles, a bottle of fountain water, and a chocolate energy bar.
She found a wooden stick and pushed the items through the gap between the car and the wall.
"Put on your masks. I'll find a way to rescue you."
Hearing Jiang Fei's voice, Lu Yu's heart suddenly quickened.
Yesterday, he was out on patrol, never expecting the sandstorm to arrive so suddenly.
Stores dared not open their doors to let people in to take shelter.
He had intended to find something for cover and hide in a sheltered spot, but then he encountered a child who was almost swept into the sky.
No sooner had he rescued the child and hidden in the alley than a car flew in.
If he hadn't quickly run to the end of the alley, curled up against the corner, and used the wall to block the falling car, he probably would have been crushed to death yesterday.
Fortunately, nearby team members discovered him in time and notified people for Rescue Team.
He had lost his walkie-talkie, and his neighbor couldn't contact him. She must be very worried... Having gone without water for a day and a night, and exposed to the sandstorm, Lu Yu's respiratory tract and throat were dry and painful. Unable to speak, he gently patted the child in his arms.
Then, he tried to lift a stiff, numb arm.
The child was also smart, understanding Lu Yu's meaning, and immediately reached for the supplies on the sand.
First, he fed Lu Yu water, then unwrapped the energy bar, and they each put half into their mouths.
Then he helped Lu Yu put on his goggles and protective mask before putting on his own items.
The mask was too big for him, so he had to tie a knot at the back of his head.
Meanwhile, outside.
Jiang Fei rejected the team members' Rescue Team plan.
"The other side of the car is a wall. People can't get through, so we can't lift the car."
"The plan to smash the wall to save people also won't work. Once the wall collapses, the car will directly crush Lu Yu and the child."
"A crane is even less realistic; its volume is larger than the car, and it can't enter the alley."
"The best way is to dig a tunnel from this side to save people."
Team member: "That looks like a shop. I'll go communicate with the owner!"
Jiang Fei followed the team member.
As the team member said, the other side of Lu Yu's location was a grain and oil store.
The store owner was a plump woman who had sealed her doors and windows, fortunately escaping the sandstorm.
As soon as she heard the team member wanted to dig a tunnel, the plump woman refused: "That's my bedroom, and it's all floored! What about my floor after you dig it up? How will I sleep later?"
Team member: "We will fill the tunnel after digging and try our best to restore it to its original state. If not, we'll replace it with the best floor tiles for you..."
Jiang Fei interrupted the team member and said to the plump woman:
"Ten catties of cured meat. If you agree, I'll go get it from the car right now."
The plump woman's eyes lit up.
With supplies scarce, who could refuse ten catties of cured meat?
"I agree!"
Jiang Fei returned to the SUV alone, opened the trunk, and actually took out ten catties of cured meat from the Supermarket, carrying it back to the grain and oil store.
Seeing the cured meat, the plump woman immediately took out an axe and went to the bedroom to hack at the floorboards.
"What are you still standing there for? I have shovels and tools in my warehouse. Hurry up and get them to dig!"
Team members: "..."
Sister, your face changed too quickly.
Several people quickly went to get tools and started digging.
The bedroom of the grain and oil store was not far from Lu Yu's location, separated by only two walls.
But they had to avoid digging in the wrong place and also dig out enough space to drag the people out.
After more than an hour, Lu Yu and the child were finally rescued.
The child was not injured, just weak from prolonged hunger and dehydration.
Lu Yu's condition was very bad. Maintaining one posture for a long time, his limbs were stiff and numb, and he could only remain curled up.
His right arm was swollen and bruised, either due to localized blood circulation issues or an injury.
The team members lifted Lu Yu onto the back seat of the SUV.
The child and filling the tunnel were left to the team members. Jiang Fei drove Lu Yu to the Hospital, not forgetting to give him water to drink along the way.
Outside the Hospital, there was a constant stream of injured people brought in by the Rescue Team.
After explaining the situation to the medical staff, they brought a movable flatbed stretcher, lifted the weak Lu Yu out of the car, and took him into the Hospital.
Thanks to his identity with the Rescue Team and Patrol Team, Lu Yu received priority examination, with Jiang Fei accompanying him throughout.
Soon, the examination results came out.
Doctor: "He has mild dehydration, respiratory infection, a minor fracture in his right arm, and poor blood circulation in his limbs."
"Go back and take some anti-inflammatory and cough medicine, rehydrate, do some light exercise, and massage his limbs to promote blood circulation."
"As for his right arm, he needs to wear a brace for 4-6 weeks. He cannot use his right hand during this period."
"If there are no other issues, you can go downstairs and pay the points now."
At this point, the doctor couldn't help but exclaim: "This Comrade is really lucky to have escaped the flying car."
Jiang Fei: "I have medicine at home, only lacking a brace."
The doctor wrote Jiang Fei a prescription for the brace.
With the payment slip, Jiang Fei went to the first floor to swipe her identity card.
The brace was not expensive, one point, and she had enough points on her card.
When Jiang Fei returned to the consulting room, Lu Yu's right arm was already in a brace, and he could sit up.
Jiang Fei was still worried: "You should still lie on the flatbed, I'll push you downstairs."
Having not spoken for too long, Lu Yu's voice was hoarse and weak.
"It's fine... I've asked the doctor, I can walk now."
"Then I'll help you." Jiang Fei went over and supported Lu Yu's left arm:
"Walk slowly, no rush."
Lu Yu was uncharacteristically embarrassed.
His neighbor had been busy helping him, without a moment's rest.
"I..."
