Chapter 297 After the Earthquake
The earthquake that appeared in the plot still came, and even with the presence of Zhang Yuan, the little butterfly, it still did not change its arrival.
One night, when everyone in the courtyard was fast asleep, Spike, who sensed something was wrong, was immediately awakened from his sleep with a very frightened expression, as if something big had happened. Then Jerry came out of the rat hole and saw that Spike was awake too. The rat and the dog began to discuss something.
"Woof!" Spike called to Jerry, pointing his paw into the distance with a look of fear on his face.
Jerry looked at Spike in confusion, then looked in the direction of his finger. Suddenly, Jerry's face turned horrified, and he realized that an earthquake was coming.
"Squeak, squeak!" Jerry jumped up in panic and tried to run away, but was stopped by Spike.
"Woof woof woof!" Spike shouted anxiously, reminding Jerry not to run around, as they needed to wake up the owner and his family.
However, at this moment, Spike suddenly discovered that an important person was missing - Tom. He hurried into the house to check and found that Tom was still lying in the cat bed with his limbs spread out, sleeping soundly and even snoring.
Spike was immediately furious. He rushed over angrily and kicked Tom's cat bed away. The cat bed somersaulted several times in the air and finally fell to the ground. But Tom just rolled over and still showed no sign of waking up.
Spike shook his head helplessly. He thought Tom was such a lazy bastard. He walked to the cat bed, grabbed Tom's neck with one hand, and lifted Tom up effortlessly. Then, he shook Tom hard like a rag doll.
"Meow~" Tom finally made a lazy call, but his eyes were still closed, and it was obvious that he had not fully woken up yet.
Spike sighed helplessly, knowing that he could not count on Tom's help now. He decided to find another safe place to avoid the earthquake.
At this time, Jerry also appeared. Seeing Tom sleeping soundly, he came over to help. He grabbed Tom's tail, then stroked it, pushed the hair to both sides, revealing the thin cat tail, and then opened his mouth and bit it hard.
"Meow!" Tom wanted to scream in pain, but Spike covered his mouth with his hand, blocking out his scream.
Tom felt excruciating pain, but the effect was good. He woke up immediately and lifted up his tail. At this moment, Jerry was still holding it tightly.
Tom directed his gaze at Jerry, and Jerry seemed to notice it. He opened his eyes and saw a pair of murderous cat eyes staring at him, and the pupils turned into a waving kitchen knife.
Jerry timidly showed a hint of apology in his smile, but he did not loosen his mouth. Feeling the murderous aura growing stronger, Jerry finally understood what Tom meant. He quickly loosened his mouth, not forgetting to smooth the hair on his tail.
Spike didn't care about the grudges between them and directly ordered them to wake up their owner and family and leave the house quickly.
After a while, Zhang Yuan's family was called by Spike. Although He Yushui and the children were confused by Spike's gesture, Zhang Yuan quickly understood its meaning, and recalled the terrible earthquake, and felt nervous. He immediately ordered He Yushui to take Zhang Qian and Zhang Xin to take shelter outside the house, and personally rushed to Sha Zhu's house.
After hearing the news, Sha Zhu did not hesitate to act with Zhang Yuan to wake up other residents. Although everyone was awakened by their shouts, they were still skeptical about whether an earthquake really occurred.
"Zhang Yuan, Sha Zhu, are you two sure there will be an earthquake?" Liu Haizhong asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Sha Zhu didn't know how to explain it, so he could only nod firmly and said, "That's right!" Deep down in his heart, he firmly believed in Zhang Yuan's judgment, so he chose to follow his footsteps without hesitation.
After waiting for a few more minutes, there was still no movement, and everyone started cursing. Just as they were about to go back to the house to catch up on some sleep, there was suddenly a loud noise from the ground, as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart, and many old houses were collapsed.
After the earthquake, everyone got up from the ground with lingering fear and looked at the mess in the yard. If Zhang Yuan had not informed them in advance, they might have been buried under the rubble, and their lives or deaths were unknown.
"So idle!" Yan Bugui said fearfully, holding his TV and wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Well, thanks to Zhang Yuan and Sha Zhu." The third aunt also echoed.
The next thing was to build an earthquake shelter. Under the command of Zhang Yuan, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu and some young men helped to build the shelter and let the women and children go in first, because it would rain after the earthquake and they couldn't let them get wet.
The next step is to pack up and see if we can get the food and bedding out of the house, because we are worried about another earthquake and will probably have to live in the shed for the next few days.
After Zhang Yuan sorted out all his things and gave Sha Zhu a few words, he said goodbye to He Yushui and the two children. Zhang Yuan still had to rush to work.
In fact, it was not just him. Some workers were also notified to return to the factory to rescue equipment.
Zhang Yuan came to the guesthouse to ask the clerk about the situation, and met Xiao Liu, who was He Yushui's lover in the original play. However, they didn't know each other at that time, so there was not much communication.
Xiao Liu told Zhang Yuan that due to the severe earthquake in Sijiu City, the situation was very critical. The bureau had issued an emergency order, requiring all public security forces to participate in the rescue operation and do their best to rescue the trapped citizens.
Upon hearing the news, Zhang Yuan led his six men without hesitation and quickly joined the rescue work.
Fortunately, Zhang Yuan had brought three pets, Jerry, Spike and Tom, with him, and Spike and Tom were left with He Yushui, so that He Yushui and her children could be protected while they continued to dig for items in the house.
After this disaster, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time they also realized that the earthquake had brought great damage to the city. Many houses collapsed, roads were damaged, and people were in trouble. Some people even began to feel lucky that they were not affected too much, while for those who lost their homes, the future was full of uncertainty.
At this time, someone suddenly remembered that Zhang Yuan had bought a lot of houses before, and now most of these houses have collapsed, and they couldn't help but find it a little funny. They began to gloat over Zhang Yuan's misfortune, thinking that Zhang Yuan had failed and suffered a huge loss. However, they didn't know that Zhang Yuan had a space ring that could transfer supplies to a safe place. Faced with these people's ridicule, Zhang Yuan didn't care, but focused on helping the victims.
On the other side, Zhang Yuan and Jerry began to look for the location of the trapped people. Jerry used his petite body to get into the gap and found some clues. When he found something, he immediately notified Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan pieced together the clues Jerry told him and finally determined the specific location of the trapped people.
After some effort, Zhang Yuan finally succeeded in finding the location of the trapped people. He led the rescue team to a ruin where the trapped people were. Zhang Yuan gently touched the ground with his hand and felt the vibration underground. He told the rescue team that the trapped people were right there and their vital signs were stable.
The rescue team immediately took action, using shovels, hoes and other tools to carefully dig out the rubble. After several hours of hard work, they finally succeeded in rescuing the trapped people. Although the trapped people were injured, they were not in danger of life.
Zhang Yuan's performance surprised the rescuers. They couldn't imagine that Zhang Yuan could find the location of the trapped people so accurately, as if he had a pair of X-ray eyes. Everyone praised Zhang Yuan and praised him as a real hero.
"He is truly an amazing person. He was able to find such a deep place."
"Yes, if it weren't for him, this family of three would be doomed."
"Look, there's a new discovery."
As time went by, more and more trapped people were found and rescued by Zhang Yuan and Jerry. Their outstanding performance won praise from everyone, and people expressed their gratitude and admiration for them.
Zhang Yuan's deeds soon spread throughout the city and even to the police station. After the director learned about it, he personally called Zhang Yuan to congratulate and thank him. Zhang Yuan modestly said: "This is what I should do. As a public security officer, it is my responsibility to protect the lives and property of the people."
Zhang Yuan's heroic behavior has received widespread attention and praise from all walks of life. He has become a hero in people's minds, inspiring more people to bravely face difficulties and contribute to society. At the same time, he also realized that this earthquake has brought him unprecedented challenges and opportunities.
However, Zhang Yuan was right. The earthquake struck again that night, and before the people in the old city could breathe a sigh of relief, they were frightened again in cold sweats that night.
The next morning, Zhang Yuan got up at dawn to lead a team of rescuers to the worst-hit areas. Because of his outstanding performance in disaster relief yesterday, the bureau trusted him very much and directly entrusted him with an important task.
In this way, seven days passed, and Zhang Yuan finally completed all the rescue work and returned home exhausted.
However, when he returned to the courtyard, he found that it was still full of hustle and bustle.
First of all, it was about eating and sleeping. Yi Zhonghai proposed to implement a big pot policy, which was a good idea at first, but on the fourth day, contradictions began to emerge. Some people complained that the Yan family had a large population and ate a lot, but they only had a small amount of food, which made everyone feel very unfair. In addition, Qin Huairu did not even hand over her own food. Every time it was time for dinner, she was always the first to run out, which attracted a lot of criticism.
After that, it was the sleeping place. Because there were too many people, there was no room for so many people, so every household contributed people and wood to build the shed. Although the conditions were very difficult, everyone worked together. However, something happened in the Yan family again. It turned out that according to the development of the plot, Yan Bugui, the third aunt, and Yan Jiecheng and his wife were driven out. They had nowhere to go and could only stand outside in a daze. Seeing this scene, Sha Zhu couldn't help but sneered a few times: "Hey, Yan Laokou, aren't you very calculating? This time you have calculated too much, even your son and daughter are calculating you." After hearing this, Yan Bugui's face became very ugly, but he couldn't refute it.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai couldn't stand it anymore, he walked over to Yan Bugui and said, "Old Yan, don't be sad, come to my place first, we can squeeze together and spend the night." Then, he called Yan Bugui and the other three to follow him. In this way, Yan Bugui and the other three came to Yi Zhonghai's shed. It was already crowded with people, in addition to Yi Zhonghai, Auntie, and Yi Xiaochuan. Although the space was small, at least there was a place to stay. Yi Zhonghai asked Yan Bugui and others to find a corner to lie down, and he sat aside to keep watch. Although this night was not comfortable, everyone finally had a place to stay.
After that, many disputes occurred, and people quarreled endlessly, which eventually led to everyone dispersing and doing their own thing. As a result, the atmosphere in the courtyard became extremely tense, and the relationships between people became complicated.
He Yushui went on to say, "Moreover, in recent days, some petty thefts have started to occur in the yard. No one paid much attention to it at first, after all, who doesn't have some rats at home? But later on, something was wrong, and more and more families found traces of people rummaging through their ruins! The matter suddenly became confusing, and everyone started to have doubts in their hearts. Neighbors who usually had some minor conflicts began to suspect each other, and some even had quarrels and frictions. Fortunately, the first and second uncles stepped forward to mediate in time, so the situation did not deteriorate further, but the lost items were indeed gone..."
"Then nothing is lost in our house, right?" Zhang Yuan asked with concern.
He Yushui smiled and shook his head, gently stroking Spike's head, and exclaimed: "Thanks to them, if it weren't for them guarding it, I'm afraid our food would be in trouble."
After hearing this, Zhang Yuan hurriedly asked, "Have you found out who did it?"
He Yushui sighed helplessly: "It was too dark at night, my brother and I couldn't see clearly."
At this moment, Spike on the side suddenly nodded vigorously to indicate that he knew.
Zhang Yuan kept silent upon seeing this and waited until night when no one was around before asking Spike.
It was not until the dead of night, when everything was quiet and everyone had fallen asleep, that Zhang Yuan quietly woke Spike up and asked him who the hateful thief was. However, to Zhang Yuan's surprise, Spike grabbed Tom without hesitation and pointed directly at Tom who was still at a loss.
"Is that it?" Zhang Yuan couldn't help but feel very surprised and confused, "Tom, what on earth did you do?"
Tom quickly began to explain with his hands and feet, saying that he had accidentally discovered that the earthquake had damaged the foundation of the yard, so he curiously explored it and unexpectedly found a hidden secret room. This secret room was full of various precious items, including a large number of silver dollars, yellow croakers, and some mysterious objects that even he himself could not understand.
“Tom, can you tell me the exact location of this secret room?” Zhang Yuan was eager to know the exact location.
Tom spread his hands helplessly, with a sly smile on his face, as if to say, "Oh, I haven't found it yet! It's all because of Spike, the stupid dog, who always interrupts my plans at the critical moment."
"Then, those things that the residents lost should not have been taken away by you, right?" Zhang Yuan suddenly remembered another important thing and asked casually.
Tom shook his head repeatedly and firmly denied that he had never touched anything. At the same time, he emphasized that he had been staying in the middle yard and all the stolen items came from the front yard, so this matter had nothing to do with him.
