728: Major traffic accidents
Wang Hai, a firefighter wearing a Firefighting Mecha, was already very satisfied with the time.
One must know that this was the outer suburban area of Jinghai City, a full 35km in a straight line from the Jinghai City Fire Department Headquarters!
A fire is an order.
Watching the fire spread, Wang Hai dared not delay.
He was about to rush into the fire in one swift stride, but a cry of surprise came from his ears.
“Mech Xia!!!”
“It’s Mech Xia!!!”
“This is the Mech Xia Director Zhang just mentioned!!!”
Hearing this cringe-worthy title, Wang Hai’s vision went dark, and his forward-lunging figure almost stumbled.
Fortunately, the intelligent system forcibly corrected him, preventing any embarrassing movements.
“The fire is fierce, please keep your distance, People!”
After saying that, Wang Hai fiercely rushed into the thick smoke.
Looking at this sci-fi Mecha, everyone was excited to the point of madness.
“Saved, they’re saved!!!”
Old Li’s family embraced each other excitedly, crying tears of joy.
Wang Hai leaped up, easily bouncing to the fifth floor where Old Li’s family was, and rushed into the fire scene through the window.
At this moment, after nearly ten minutes of intense burning, Old Li’s house was completely unrecognizable, with raging fires everywhere in the living room.
Not only was there thick smoke, but the temperature was also extremely high.
From time to time, there were also sounds of electrical appliances exploding, as if a fiery hell had appeared in the human world.
In such a harsh environment, in the past, fire rescue could only slowly spray high-pressure water guns from outside to cool down, and People could never rush into the fire.
Unless... there were Chinese trapped.
This is also a major reason for the heroic sacrifices of domestic firefighters...
“Fire scene scan complete, activate extinguishing procedure?”
The intelligent AI mechanical voice in the helmet sounded.
“Start!”
“Okay!”
“Estimated completion time: 3 minutes 08 seconds!”
With the assistance of the intelligent AI system, Wang Hai’s two shoulder plates made a “click-clack” sound.
Eight gun barrels, like spider legs, extended out.
After intelligent analysis, they quickly locked onto various fire points in the house and began spraying extinguishing agents precisely and flexibly.
Five minutes later, the fire brigade of the jurisdiction quickly arrived at the scene.
At this time, the fire was completely suppressed.
Ignoring the sour expressions of the firefighters, Wang Hai, wearing a Firefighting Mecha, walked out of Old Li’s house with his head held high, handing over the fire scene to the fire brigade for subsequent handling.
As soon as he arrived at the square, a prompt suddenly sounded in his helmet.
“Alert received!”
“Major traffic safety accident!”
“A multi-car pileup occurred at the intersection of the Southwest Second Ring Expressway, urgent emergency rescue needed!...”
The intelligent system simultaneously provided satellite positioning, straight-line distance: 15km!
The situation was urgent.
Wang Hai didn’t even have time to greet the People.
He came to an open space, leaped up, and rushed into the sky at an extremely fast flying speed!
Looking up at the dreamlike figure that had disappeared into the night, the residents of the community all had their mouths wide open, deeply shocked!
The Mech Xia belonging to the Chinese themselves had truly entered reality!
Xiaoming’s wailing entered everyone’s ears.
“Our home is still here, our home has been saved!”
“Thank you, Mech Xia!”
“Thank you, my motherland!”
“Thank you, Ren Yi Daddy! Woo woo woo...”
...
At the same time, at the New Year's Day gala main venue, the introduction of the three special guests continued.
“...Compared to the high mobility and high flexibility of the Firefighting Mecha,”
“the Engineering Mecha is a high-load Mecha specifically used for engineering load-bearing!”
Director Zhang introduced: “Although the flexibility of the Engineering Mecha is insufficient, its basic performance has been greatly improved!”
“The most special thing is its hydraulic support forward-tilting body design!”
“Utilizing the hydraulic load-bearing platform on the back of the Mecha, it can withstand oversized heavy objects, up to 5 times the load of a normal Mecha!”
Zhou Guo, the commander of the Engineering Mech Force, took over the conversation and said with a smile.
“As Director Zhang said!”
“Firefighting Mecha and Engineering Mecha are complementary!”
“Currently, 30,000 sets of Engineering Mecha have also been deployed across the country, actively participating in major accident emergency rescues!”
“Afterward, we plan to deploy twenty sets of Engineering Mecha and twenty sets of Firefighting Mecha to all prefecture-level cities within one year!”
“Mech Xia will officially become the guardian of the Chinese,”
“effectively ensuring the property safety of the Chinese!”
...
Jinghai City.
Southwest Second Ring Road, connected to the deep mountains in the suburbs.
At the intersection of the mountain entrance and the Second Ring main road.
A large truck loaded with goods and a public bus carrying more than thirty People scraped, both overturning to the side.
Many small cars in the back also had a multi-car pileup.
Police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances were flashing their lights, waiting on the emergency lane by the main road.
As soon as Wang Hai, wearing a Firefighting Mecha, arrived, Liu Yang, the team leader of the City South Urban Fire Brigade, quickly came to report.
“Captain Wang!”
“Twenty minutes ago, a public bus and a large truck had a scrape accident. To avoid a collision, both vehicles overturned, and seven cars had a multi-car pileup!”
“Fortunately, only two People were seriously injured, and there were no fatalities for now.”
Under Liu Yang’s introduction, Wang Hai quickly understood the general situation of the current accident.
“Liu team, why are there only so few traffic police and firefighters here?”
Wang Hai frowned.
“There are only about ten People in total, how can we carry out the rescue?”
Liu Yang also had an anxious expression.
“Captain Wang, the incident happened suddenly!”
“Today is New Year's Day, there are many drunk drivers, which has led to more various accidents in the city. These are all the People who could spare time to come!”
Wang Hai asked:
“What’s the situation now?”
Liu Yang quickly replied.
“Rescue process encountered major difficulties!”
“Two People are trapped in the driver’s cab, the situation is extremely critical!”
“The large truck owner is difficult to rescue due to the left-side overturn!”
“A Mercedes-Benz car is squeezed in the middle by several cars, and the female driver is completely stuck in the driver’s seat!”
“This must use lifting equipment!”
“The rescue equipment we firefighters brought is not enough, and new equipment reinforcement will take at least half an hour to arrive!”
“Currently, the physical conditions of both People are not good. If rescue is not timely... there will certainly be a life-threatening danger!”
In the distance, at the center of the accident site.
Inside a Mercedes-Benz car with its front almost completely crumpled.
The little girl in the pink dress in the back seat was wailing.
“Woo woo woo, Mommy, I’m so scared!! Daddy, where are you, Daddy, come save Mommy quickly, woo woo woo...”
The woman completely stuck in the driver’s seat had no color on her face at this moment.
She endured the severe pain in her body and comforted weakly.
“Baby, don’t be afraid, Mommy is here.”
“Do you see those firefighter uncles? They will come to save us soon...”
As soon as she finished speaking, the female driver in the car had completely fainted.
“Mommy! Mommy, come out, Mommy!!! Woo woo woo!!!...”
The more than twenty People who had been rescued nearby were squatting on the curb, watching.
Their faces showed both the relief of having survived by chance and the sadness of witnessing a human tragedy.
A middle-aged man shook his head and sighed.
“This little girl is truly too pitiful! She’s so young and is about to lose her mother, sigh!...”
As soon as these words came out, the People nearby were immediately furious and cursed loudly.
“Crow mouth, go die!”
“So many firefighters are here for rescue, they’ll be saved right away, why are you cursing them to die for no reason?”
“That’s right! You, looking like a human, but speaking like an animal!”
...
The middle-aged man was embarrassed by the scolding.
He considered himself well-informed and further explained.
“My words are unpleasant, but they are correct.”
“Many traffic accidents, the parties involved do not die on the spot, but are dragged to death because the rescue process takes too long!”
“Look, so many firefighters are surrounding, does anyone dare to act?”
“Without special tools, who dares to act? Acting is very likely to cause secondary or tertiary injuries, and the person may not even be rescued!”
“By the time the fire department’s reinforcements arrive, the person will be long gone!”
The middle-aged man’s words made a lot of sense.
Some People still refused to believe it and continued to angrily scold the middle-aged man.
Although most People accepted this fact, the onlookers sighed repeatedly.
“They’ve already fainted now, how can they last that long?”
“Sigh! What a human tragedy!”
“Watching loved ones die before your eyes, this little girl is too pitiful...”
...
In the distance, Liu Yang’s face was full of helplessness.
“Those two injured People are trapped in the driver’s cab, and the rescue is extremely difficult. Before the specialized lifting equipment arrives, we really dare not act rashly.”
“Moreover, the large truck overturned to the left, and although the driver is still conscious, he probably won’t survive.”
As a veteran firefighter with more than ten years of experience, Liu Yang knew very well that, according to past experience, it would take at least tens of tons of lifting equipment to rescue the large truck driver!
“Perhaps the Mercedes-Benz owner can still be tried to save,”
“Captain Wang, can your Firefighting Mecha do it?”
Upon hearing this, Wang Hai was also unsure.
It was his first time participating in a rescue wearing a Mecha, so he could only say he would try his best.
...
Accident scene.
Several huge searchlights illuminated the entire accident site as if it were daytime.
Wang Hai followed Liu Yang into the rescue scene, immediately causing a burst of exclamations.
“Look, what’s that?!”
“Oh my God, isn’t that the Human Bionic Mecha? It actually appeared!”
“So handsome, so mighty!”
“Are they here to participate in the rescue?! The People inside are saved!”
Many People were seeing the Human Bionic Mecha for the first time, and the scene immediately erupted in exclamations.
Everyone took out their phones and started filming videos.
