Chapter 1340: Mayor Dong rescues people!

Before 11 am.

The meeting room was in an uproar.

The Public Security Bureau?

The family quarters collapsed?

How did it happen? When?

How did it collapse suddenly?

The Meng Factions leaders jumped up from their chairs.

The female Party Committee staff member quickly answered. It happened around two minutes ago. I received the news and rushed over immediately.

Jiang Fangfang asked. What is the situation now?

Meng Rui realized the seriousness of the situation. Are there any casualties?

The female staff member replied. It just happened, and the ambulance and rescuers are coming.

Meng Rui banged the table. I am asking about the casualties. How many people are injured or killed?

The female staff replied. We are unsure about the casualties. It was chaos over there.

The County Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee cum Public Security Bureau Chief, Chu Peng, quickly called his men to ask about the situation. Meng Rui, Jiang Fangfang, and the rest switched on their phones. Messages started coming in, and phone alerts started sounding nonstop. Everyone in the meeting room was on their phones. They spoke anxiously. This is a severe incident in the low population Zhen Shui County.

Hello, how is it?

What is the cause for the collapse?

Contact the ambulances. They must reach within three minutes!

Stop giving me excuses! Organize our men to rescue the victims immediately!

Dong Xuebing received Yao Cuis call after he switched on his phone. He said after hanging up. I said we should have repaired those old buildings earlier.

The Meng Factions men almost swore at him.

F**k! You are still making sarcastic remarks at this time.

But the Public Security Bureau family quarters collapsed two to three minutes ago. Dong Xuebing suggested repairing or rebuilding the family quarters half an hour before it happened. Everyone was shocked. Pu An and Jian Xiangrong looked at Dong Xuebing in shock. The other Meng Factions men looked at him after they ended their calls.

Dong Xuebing had just pointed out the family quarters safety concerns.

The Meng Faction strongly opposes his suggestion.

And a building collapsed.

This is such a f**king coincidence!

They had disgraced themselves.

It was slapping themselves with their shoes soles.

Meng Rui was speechless. He was in the government service for many years and had never encountered such a coincidence. Dong Xuebing was too wicked.

Chu Peng could not wait. I am going to the scene to direct the rescue.

Lets go together. Jiang Fangfang was the first to leave the meeting room.

Meng Rui stopped looking at Dong Xuebing. He knew their priority was to save the victims or injured. He ordered. We will end the meeting now. Mayor Ci, you go to the hospital to oversee the receiving of the injured. I want a green channel for the victims. Secretary Zhang, you will stay in the Party Committee Building to oversee the situation. Report to me when you receive any news. I am going to the scene. He stormed out of the meeting room with his secretary.

The Party Secretary and Mayor must be at the incident scene.

The other Committee members went on to do their work. Dong Xuebing followed them downstairs.

Downstairs.

Mayor Jiang had left in Chu Pengs car.

Secretary Meng, Zhang Feng, and a few Party Committee members were waiting for their vehicles. The drivers were driving the cars over.

Dong Xuebing got into his Land Rover. He seemed to have forgotten how the Meng Faction treated him at the meeting. He stopped his car in front of them. Secretary Meng, get into my car.

Meng Rui got into the car immediately.

Zhang Feng and a few Party Committee members got into the car, too.

Dong Xuebing stepped on the accelerator and dashed out of the compound. Although the Land Rover is good at off-road conditions and not as fast as Dong Xuebings Porsche, his was the top-of-the-range Range Rover. The performance is better than the ordinary Mercedes or BMWs. The engine roared, and the Land Rover was a few hundred meters away. He overtook over twenty vehicles on the road.

The Public Security Bureau Family Quarters.

A cloud of dust covered the area.

Meng Rui, Zhang Feng, and the rest tensed up. It was more severe than they thought. They left the car quickly after Dong Xuebing stopped at the entrance. Dong Xuebing got out, too. It was chaotic. People were screaming, crying, and shouting. A few people with bleeding arms and legs were helped into the ambulances by the doctors and nurses. Everybody was covered in dust.

Hurry! Save my son!

My wife is injured! Doctor! Where is the doctor?

Hurry and save them! People are still inside!

Where is my Old Zhao? My old Zhao is missing!

Dont be anxious, Xiao Liu. Your old Zhao was sent to the hospital. He got a cut on his head, but it is minor.

Thank god. What about your Old Wang? Is he all right?

Old Wang is fine. He went to work today. Why did the building collapse suddenly?

Our gas was cut a while ago, and Old Zhous unit got a gas cylinder. It exploded earlier. The explosion was loud.

But it should not cause the building to collapse.

Our building was decades old and full of cracks. Old Zhous unit exploded, and it affected the whole building. Look at that crack.

Get away from there. Hurry.

I did not bring my bankbook when I ran out.

What bankbook? Your life is more important.

The collapsed building was a six-story building. It did not collapse like those buildings that were blown up with dynamites. Dong Xuebing saw the outermost unit on the sixth floor had lost the roof. He could see the couch and TV in the apartment from downstairs. The unit under it had lost a wall. Bricks were crumbling and falling. A unit on the fourth floor was on fire. It was not a raging fire, but black smoke was bellowing out. The building was slanted to one side, and a large crack ran from the first to the fifth floor. A staircase collapsed and buried an apartment on the first floor.

Crash.

Crash

Bricks and broken glasses continued to rain down.

Watch out!

Stay away from there!

Are there people trapped inside?

Is there anyone inside? Hello?

The fire department had not arrived, and some civilians helped to rescue the victims. They shouted at the shaky building. The building might collapse entirely at any time.

The situation was dangerous.

Meng Rui and Jiang Fangfang started organizing the rescue.

Mayor Jiang and Dong Xuebing were in charge of evacuating the people. Meng Rui will direct the rescue.

Why is the fire department not here yet? Meng Rui shouted.

Jiang Fangfang and a few County Government staff saw a building behind the partially collapsed building. They were afraid that the building might be affected. Jiang Fangfang let Dong Xuebing handle the evacuation at the scene while they went to evacuate the building behind.

Dong Xuebing looked at the collapsing building. He quickly grabbed the Public Security Bureaus family members and said. Hurry and get out of here! Wait outside!

My husband is inside!

We will rescue everyone. This place is dangerous. Get away from here first!

A man in pajamas stood at the second-floor apartment window. His sleeves were covered in blood, and he was shouting for help. He was still inside the collapsing apartment.

The woman beside Dong Xuebing shouted. Its my husband! Save him! Hurry and save him!

Go outside and wait. We will handle this. Dong Xuebing started running towards the building and shouted at that man. Go by the stairs! Dont jump!

That man was panicking. The stairwell had collapsed. I cannot get out!

Dong Xuebing reached the foot of the building and shouted. Then jump! I will catch you!

The county government staff behind shouted anxiously. Come back, Mayor Dong! It is dangerous there!

A few of the Public Security Bureaus family members recognized Dong Xuebing and wanted to replace him. Let us do it, Mayor Dong. It is dangerous here.

A man said. I will go and find some mattresses and cushions.

Dont bother. Its only from the second floor. Dong Xuebing said and shouted to that man on the second floor. Jump!

This was nothing to Dong Xuebing. He had caught people jumping off from the sixth floor.

That man clenched his teeth and broke the glass window panels. He jumped towards Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing caught that man in mid-air and twisted his body to dissipate the force. He placed that man on the ground steadily. He continued to evacuate the people. What are you all looking at? Hurry and get out of here!

Many people saw what happened.

They heard about Mayor Dongs combat powers, and this was the first time they saw it.

He caught an adult man jumping from the second floor as if he was catching a pillow.

Everybody knew Mayor Dong suffered fractures all over his body and was hospitalized for severe injuries last month. He got slightly better recently, and he could catch someone falling from the second floor with ease.

Most of the family members leave the danger zone.

But a few family members refused to leave. Their family members were still inside. An old lady was crying, and a woman tried to run into the building a few times. Luckily, the rescuers stopped her.

Dong Xuebing got anxious. Where is he?

Unit 3 on the third floor! The woman cried. My son was sleeping in the room.

Wait here. Dong Xuebing said and started climbing up the collapsing exterior wall.

Mayor Dong!

Dont do that!

You still have not recovered from your injuries!

A few County Government leaders tried to stop Dong Xuebing.

But Dong Xuebing had started climbing.

First floor

Second floor

Third floor

Crash! Dong Xuebing broke a window and jumped in.

Dong Xuebing appeared at the windows with a crying boy about fifteen seconds later. He carried the boy and started climbing down the building. He handed the boy to that woman, climbing up again to rescue the next person.

The woman was overjoyed. She shouted at Dong Xuebing loudly. Thank you! Thank you, Mayor Dong!
