Chapter 42
After regaining consciousness, although the windows were closed, the sound of heavy rain outside could still be heard.

He answered the phone in a daze, "Hello~"

"..."

"What?" He sat up in an instant, and all sleepiness disappeared.

"..."

"Okay, I see, this will pass."

He got up as fast as he could, washed up, and hurried downstairs.

The call just now was from Li Bu, something happened in Laibin County!

Last night, Laibin County experienced another torrential rain. At [-] o'clock in the morning, the embankment of the Mujiang River burst, and the raging flood flooded the entire Laibin County in an instant!The current situation of casualties and disappearances is unknown, and Li Bu asked him to reach the unit as quickly as possible.

When he came downstairs, there was already a black car waiting.

He was surprised for a moment, and then hurried into the car.

In the coffee shop on the first floor of Nanjiang Satellite TV, all the reporters and cameramen were on standby.

Li Bu and Li Han hurried in.

As the team leader, Li Bu took the lead in speaking, "I believe everyone has received the notice and knows what happened, so I won't repeat it. Now the eyes of the whole country are focused on Laibin, and everyone is very concerned about the situation there, but there is no Too many channels.

"As a local TV station in Nanjiang, we have the responsibility and obligation to be on the front line. Now, I'm asking for your opinions. If anyone doesn't want to go, you can raise your hand. I won't force you."

After waiting for a few seconds, seeing no one raised their hands, Li Han said: "Don't be embarrassed, everyone, after all, this task is a matter of life and death, I hope you will not be limited by face, and make a decision that you and your family will regret. "

As soon as he said this, someone started to move. Two reporters and a photographer raised their hands, and then lowered their heads in shame.

"Very good, is there any more?" Li Bu was not dissatisfied with the three people who raised their hands, it was all their own choices, and no one else could blame them.

No one raised their hands again.

"Okay! They're all men! I wish you all a safe return. When you come back, I'll serve you a celebration drink and let's go!"

The crowd came out.

Li Han stared at Ren Ming's back, as if he had a heart-to-heart connection. Ren Ming also looked back at her, seeing the worry and reluctance on her face, he gave her a reassuring smile, and then strode out.

Guan Ze's bedroom.

Bed.

Guan Ze put down his phone, almost unable to suppress his excitement.

He just received a notification from the station that today's "Good Morning Nanjiang" will be hosted by him.He was going crazy with joy, after waiting for so long, he finally waited for this day.Sure enough, Guan Ze is the best!
When he came to the unit, he learned that it was Ren Ming who was sent out to interview as a reporter, and it was his turn to play.Knowing the truth, he was a little bit disappointed. It turned out that he was just a substitute. When Ren Ming came back, his position would still be his.

When he knew the location of Ren Ming's interview, he was happy again. It was Leibin County. If he... then he would be able to secure this position permanently.

He was looking forward to this happening.

……

It was almost seven o'clock when Ren Ming arrived in Laibin County.Compared with a day ago, this place has become unfamiliar to him.

As far as the eye can see, there is no land, but water everywhere. If you look down from the sky, you will find that Laibin County has become a big "lake".

It was almost seven o'clock, and the sun didn't show any intention of coming out. The rain stopped for a while, but the dark clouds still covered the sky. I don't know if they were gathering strength.No one knows when the next wave of rain will come, and no one knows whether the next wave of rain will be bigger.

Above the county seat, there is the siren of piercing clouds and cracking rocks.

Ren Ming said to Wu Ken in the back seat: "Brother Ken, let's get in here, the water ahead is too deep for the car to pass."

"it is good."

The two got out of the car, and no one was wearing a raincoat. In the current environment, it doesn't matter if you wear it or not.

There is a small action camera fixed on Ren Ming's chest, which belongs to Yu Fei, and he has not had time to return it.

After walking forward for a certain distance, they stopped. Where they were standing now, the water had reached the level of their knees. Moving forward, the water became even deeper. Ren Ming even saw that there was a calm "lake" not far away. , there are many raised small pieces of "land", those are the roof of the car.

It is not easy to go in such deep water. If you encounter a vortex, it will kill you.

Just when the two were at a loss, an assault boat drove over and stopped not far from them.

"Are you a reporter from Nanjiang Satellite TV?" On the assault boat, a young man in a fire suit and a life jacket shouted at the two of them.

Ren Ming quickly replied: "That's right! We are reporters from Nanjiang Satellite TV."

"Both of you get on board!"

The two boarded the assault boat, and the young man handed each of them a life jacket for them to put on.

Ren Ming took off the camera on his chest, put on the life jacket, and fixed it on his chest again.

During the chat, Ren Ming learned that this is a firefighter from the Laibin County Fire Rescue Brigade, who came here to pick them up.

Ren Ming began to ask him about the situation.

"When exactly did the Mujiang embankment break?"

The firefighters recalled, "About [-]:[-] a.m., when I was rescuing residents in the county, I was notified that the embankment had collapsed, and we were asked to hurry up and rescue the trapped residents."

"Who informed you?"

"Our trainer."

"Where did your trainer get this news from?"

"It should be the brother troops stationed under the embankment."

"How are the officers and soldiers of those troops? Are they safe? How is the platoon leader Xiao Junhu? How is the soldier Wu Yaqing?"

Ren Ming asked the question he was most concerned about.

Although he has only known them for a day, he already regards them as friends. He likes the shy boy Wu Yaqing, Xiao Junhu who is going to be a father soon, and countless soldiers who don't sleep and spend all their time fighting floods. His face was imprinted in his mind.

The fireman was silent for a few seconds, "At that time, no one thought that the levee would collapse. When the flood came, everyone was washed away. But we later fished out a lot of people from the water. I don't know the two people you mentioned In it or not."

"Where are the rescued people? Take me there quickly."

"Okay." He agreed, and said again: "But you have to be mentally prepared, because we rescued only a small number of people, and most of them disappeared. But in such a big flood..."

He didn't continue, but Ren Ming knew what he meant.

Led by the firefighters, Ren Ming came to a resettlement site - Leibin County Senior High School.

After such a big disaster, the middle school has been closed for a long time. There are no students and teachers in the school, and they are replaced by the affected people.On both sides of the corridor, some people just sat on the ground, not making any noise, their eyes glazed over.

After the flood, some people lost their relatives who lived with them day and night, and some lost their houses.The two-story building that someone worked so hard to build for a lifetime was also ruthlessly washed away by the flood.

Without a home, they don't know where the future lies.
