Chapter 13: Evacuation
This fire was caused by human carelessness. It was too cold, so several girls in the neighboring dormitory took apart the cabinets to light a fire for warmth. However, they fell asleep at night without paying attention, and the fire directly burned to the quilt, resulting in the spread of the fire.
An hour later, the fire was put out, and those several girls failed to escape. Their bodies were burned into coke. Many people at the scene saw it and vomited non-stop.
Now that the rescue can't come, Lin Yiran and several boys first put the bodies in boxes and carried them away and placed them in the most remote building of the school.
Su Yu's dormitory was also affected, but only the toilet and the entrance were burned, and the loss was not large.
Then, Lin Yiran stood on the open space on the sixth floor of the teachers' dormitory and said with a horn,
"Teachers and classmates, I have contacted the people at the Placement point, and they will accept you at any time. So, I would like to make an arrangement first and divide the people into two groups to send them over. Today and tomorrow, the girls will be given priority, along with teachers and staff, and the rest will wait in the school first."
Everyone relies on Lin Yiran, after all, only he knows where the Placement point is, so they didn't say anything.
Li Zhun immediately came to select people, and those who were selected happily went to pack their things, while those who were not selected could only return to the dormitory disappointed.
Bai Shang handed a bag to Su Yu and Gu Meng, and said with a smile, "Inside are windbreak jackets, non-slip shoes, and some things that will be used. You can change and pack your things. We will set off together in thirty minutes." It seems that the heroine told them that she would also go. The male lead has a two-bedroom apartment in City B, and during the natural disaster in the novel, the team has been hiding in it.
Su Yu took the bag and pretended not to know, asking, "Where to go? The relocation site?" "My apartment. There are too many people at the relocation site, and it's not safe." Lin Yiran suddenly spoke from behind her, which scared Su Yu. Su Yu nodded to thank, then pulled Gu Meng and left directly, leaving several people looking at their backs.
Behind them, Li Zhun poked Bai Shang and whispered slyly, "Don't you think the boss is a little strange?"
Bai Shang gave him a glance, "Not too stupid after all."
"Feels like the boss likes to hang around that cold girl, um, called Su Yu, right?" Bai Shang had already noticed this.
Since the incident in the cafeteria, Lin Yiran has paid close attention to Su Yu. Even if he doesn't live in the school, he would ask someone to investigate her background and recent every move. Even when Gu Meng said she wanted to bring Su Yu along, he immediately agreed. Anyway, Lin Yiran's attitude towards the girl named Su Yu is quite intriguing.
What Bai Shang doesn't know is that even Gu Meng's invitation for Su Yu to live in the apartment was deliberately guided by Lin Yiran. If he knew, I'm afraid even he would be surprised.
Bai Shang, who came to his senses, asked Li Zhun not to think nonsense and hurry up to get busy, then sent him away.
He looked at Lin Yiran, who was leaning against the wall next to him, with his eyes downcast, not knowing what he was thinking, thought for a moment, and approached to ask.
"Still no news from Beijing?"
Lin Yiran shook his head and his tone was colder than ever before. "The rain was too heavy and many places were flooded, including the cables. Now it's so cold that the water has all frozen. It will be difficult to rescue them, and the progress will be slow."
Although Bai Shang had guessed as much, he still felt a chill in his heart when he heard such words.
The four of them are from Beijing and grew up in the same compound. With Lin Yiran as the leader, they call each other brothers. During university, Lin Yiran came to study in B city against his family's wishes, and the others followed him. Now, due to the natural disaster, they have lost contact with their families, how could they not be anxious?
After a while, he sighed and went back to work.
At 9 am, Su Yu, Gu Meng, and the other half of the people were ready to go. Most of them were dragging suitcases and carrying large and small bags.
The remaining half of the people stood on the balcony, looking enviously at them.
Lin Yiran asked Qiu Qin and Bai Shang to stay and maintain order, then waved his hand and shouted through a loudspeaker, "Let's go!" Everyone followed suit.
Su Yu and Gu Meng walked in the front, and Li Zhun walked over to Gu Meng with a smile, took the suitcase directly from her hand, and before she could refuse, explained, "Bai Shang asked me to help. If you refuse, he will hit me!"
Saying that, he also pretended to look scared, and Gu Meng could only say thank you embarrassedly.
Su Yu looked back at the school behind her, and could only vaguely see the figures the size of ants. Then she turned around bored, just in time to see Lin Yiran reach out to her.
Su Yu: "??"
"Give me the suitcase."
Su Yu shook her head quickly, dodged sideways, and hurried forward.
Asking the male lead to help her with her luggage? That's terrifying!
The rejected Lin Yiran's eyes deepened, retracted his hand, and quickened his pace to catch up, but no longer mentioned helping with the luggage.
Li Zhun and Gu Meng behind him both took a deep breath. For some reason, they didn't dare to speak just now.
The crowd walked on the ice for more than three hours, stopping and going all the way. They were all spoiled students and older teachers, so the overall progress of the team was very slow.
On the way, they met other survivors. When those people saw this large group of people, they all left one after another, not daring to get close. Some people hid in the damp and tattered buildings and observed them secretly.
Everyone's heart was lifted, afraid that these people would come to rob and make trouble. Fortunately, they finally reached the nearest resettlement site safely.
This resettlement site is in a five-star hotel in B city. Due to its high terrain and high floors, one-third of the people in the city have been transferred here.
Lin Yiran directly explained the situation to the staff on duty in the hotel, and the person nodded and led the crowd inside.
Before going in, many teachers and students thanked Lin Yiran and Li Zhun. The boy nodded and only said, "See you if we are fated."
Soon, only Gu Meng, Su Yu, Lin Yiran, and Li Zhun were left at the door.
"Let's go." Lin Yiran turned around and headed in the other direction, and the few of them followed.
Su Yu, this little loser, was already panting after pushing a box and carrying a bag for almost three hours.
Gu Meng beside her was not easy either, and asked, "How long will it take us to get to the apartment?"
"At least two hours."
Hearing this, Su Yu was even more desperate. Just then, her stomach was uncooperative and "cooed" noisily.
The other three all focused their eyes on her, making her blush.
Lin Yiran quickly curved the corners of his mouth and then said, "Hang in there, we'll take a rest and have a meal at the hotel not far ahead."
"Okay." The response came from the other two's suppressed laughter.
Su Yu: "..."
So embarrassing!
