fire rescue

Chapter 55

"The opening of the court is now announced. The Criminal Division of the People's Court of Beicheng District, Lingquan City will openly hear the defendant Zheng Xiaoli's crime of intentional injury, rape, and gambling in accordance with the law. Now the opening of the court is announced. First, the identity of the defendant will be checked..."

This is Zheng Yi's first time attending a criminal court trial, and he only watched it on TV before, the court investigation, evidence cross-examination, the presiding judge on the bench, the public prosecutor of the procuratorate, the defendant Zheng Xiaoli, the defender Kang Jiabei... These people in the court and this series of court proceedings basically restored the numerous crimes that Zheng Xiaoli committed over the years.

If he hadn't personally experienced this audition, Zheng Yi might not have known that Zheng Xiaoli had committed so many crimes over the years. He was really terrified, and even felt ashamed because of having such a father. He wanted to leave this place several times. He was shot countless times.

The trial lasted for about an hour, and Zheng Yi was fidgeting all the time as if he was being fried by a small fire. Finally, when the public prosecutor delivered his public prosecution opinion during the final court debate, Zheng Yi thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, but the long speech turned out to be even worse. Every word cone heart.

"Next, the defendant Zheng Xiaoli will defend himself." The presiding judge said.

Zheng Xiaoli said: "Judge, I have nothing to defend myself. I plead guilty to the law and hope that the court will give me a lighter punishment. In addition, I have a few words that I want to say to my ex-wife and my son, is that okay?"

The judge nodded, Zheng Xiaoli turned around, bowed to Zheng Yi and Chu Hongxia, then turned back, and said, "Thank the government for giving me a chance to reform and make me realize how much I love my ex-wife, Chu Hongxia. and my son Zheng Yi. I have never fulfilled my obligations as a husband and a father. Compensate them for your labor."

Zheng Yi couldn't tell the truth or falsehood of these words, no one would say high-sounding words, but his mother stood up excitedly, pointed at Zheng Xiaoli and cursed: "Zheng Xiaoli, don't think you can say a few nice words! Our mother and son can forgive you, we came here today to see how unlucky you are, I wish you would be shot dead by the government."

It is a discipline not to allow noise and noise in the courtroom, and the hostile judge seemed not interested in knowing about it. He knocked on the gavel and said, "Please be quiet, the observers."

Zheng Yi pulled his mother's clothes and motioned her to sit down, Chu Hongxia's tears fell down.It had been so many years, and until today, she had let go of the burden in her heart. The person in front of her might never be able to forgive him in her lifetime.

"Next, the defender will make a debate opinion..."

The trial was over, but the judge did not pronounce the verdict in court. After the adjournment, Zheng Xiaoli was taken away by the bailiff.Kang Jiabei walked up to Chu Hongxia and said, "Auntie, you were too excited during the court session, which is not good for your health."

Chu Hongxia was stopped by the presiding judge before she could vent her anger, so she pointed the finger at Kang Jiabei: "Xiaokang, why are you defending this beast? The judge sentenced less."

Kang Jiabei said in embarrassment: "Aunt Chu, I can't help it. Who told me this is my job responsibility. Don't blame me, isn't it okay if I treat you to dinner?" Any woman, no matter how old she is, eats Kang Jiabei's set, coaxing people well with a few words, is also a skill.

Going out of the court, Zheng Yi was blinded by the dazzling sunlight outside. A van with the word "Court" passed in front of them. Zheng Yi seemed to see Zheng Xiaoli sitting inside, so he asked Kang Jiabei : "When will the judgment be delivered?"

"Let's see the judge. The trial period is only three months. How come the verdict will be issued within the time limit? What do you care about the result?"

Zheng Yi snorted and said, "It's not that I care, it's that I feel that I deserve it."

Kang Jiabei asked casually: "If he is like this, will it affect you?"

Zheng Yi shook his head, "I don't know either."

The temperature in the afternoon had already soared to 35 degrees. Zheng Yi went back to work after lunch. Sitting in the office, he was drowsy from the heat. The office conditions in townships are limited. Except for the leaders, there is generally no air conditioning. He has not slept well recently. Dozed off lying on the table, just staring at it, a WeChat message from Bai Hewei jumped out from the phone, "Tomorrow night, Chengmingxuan, private room 205, you can go directly after work, I will wait for you there."

Zheng Yi held his phone and looked at it for a long time, and before he could grin, he realized that this meant that Bai Hewei was leaving soon, and he didn't know what kind of mentality he should have when eating this meal.

After returning home, Zheng Yi really wanted to tell his mother, but in the end he decided to keep half of it, "Mom, I won't go home for dinner after get off work tomorrow night."

"Who are you going out to eat with?"

"Yes, there is a colleague's child who is getting married, and the person who entertained the unit in advance."

"Oh, let's go then." Chu Hongxia didn't have the slightest doubt.

Early the next morning, Zheng Yi rummaged through his closet for a long time, and finally found a gray-blue Polo shirt he bought last year. Everyone said he looked good in it, and a pair of black cotton trousers. Nine points, with a pair of white skateboard shoes, and hairspray to style the hair.He looked at himself in the mirror, um, although he was a lot more mature than when he was in college, he still caught the eye, but he was really sloppy for a long time, and he couldn't even regain the confidence he had back then.

Going downstairs, looking at the dilapidated second-hand jeep he parked downstairs, Zheng Yi himself felt disgusted, thinking that it was time to change the car.

When he arrived at the unit, from the moment he entered the door, his colleagues asked him one after another when they saw him: "Xiao Zheng, you are going on a blind date, and you are dressed so smartly."

Zheng Yi had to be thankful for the hot weather, he couldn't even tell his face was red.

The weather forecast was quite accurate. At two o'clock in the afternoon, it was the hottest time of the day. The scorching sun shone down on the earth, and it was as if it was on fire everywhere. There was not a trace of coolness in the air.This dry and hot weather makes people feel very irritable, Zheng Yi just wants to get off work quickly and meet Bai Hewei, so as to end this torment.The ringing of the phone pierced the tranquility of the afternoon, and a breathless voice told him: "Station Master Zheng, the south of Shilong Mountain in Yangshu Village is on fire, please bring someone here."

Zheng Yi sat up straight and didn't react for a while. He asked, "What did you say?"

"I'm Lao Jing from Yangshu Village. The south of Shilong Mountain is on fire. Bring someone here quickly."

Since the end of the fire prevention period, the mountains have turned green, and there have been a few moderate rains, and the forest fire danger level has naturally dropped. Therefore, with the approval of the leader, according to the habit of previous years, Zheng Yi asked the firefighting team to Going home, after all, it is the busy farming season, and the firefighters who are all farmers have to be busy with the work in their own fields, so they can't trap people in the town.

Zheng Yi hung up the phone and called Zhang Xiao. Zhang Xiao rubbed his eyes and pushed the door in, with a sleepy face and several marks on his face.

"Don't go to sleep, what time is it? Hurry up and call the firefighters. Yangshu Village is on fire. Let the firefighters from Damiao Village and Niujiagou Village gather in the town, and the rest go directly to Yangshu Village."

Zhang Xiao immediately regained his energy, and said repeatedly: "I know, I know, let's go right away." So he ran back to his office to make a phone call.

On Zheng Yi's side, he locked the office door, took off his well-matched clothes, put on a camouflage uniform and rubber shoes, and went to report to Li Dawei.After hearing this, Li Dawei also regained his spirits. He originally wanted to call the district to report the fire, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it and wait until there to see the situation. The two leaders of the party and government also had the same opinion, and asked the party committee The secretary notified all government officials to prepare in the town.

Within 10 minutes, all the firefighters from Damiao Village and Niujiagou Village assembled and loaded the fire extinguishers into the vehicle. After 15 minutes, they arrived at the fire site smoothly, while the firefighters from other villages were already waiting.

At this time, the outdoor temperature had reached [-] degrees, and even a slight movement would cause him to sweat. Zheng Yi, including all the fire fighters present, were fully armed, and their clothes were already soaked in sweat.This is not the first time to fight a fire in summer, but it is the first time to fight a fire at such a high temperature.

On the mountain at this time, the sun seems to be more venomous, the steaming heat blurs the vision, and the distant scenery is also out of shape. In addition, the fire not far away and the smoke rising, the closer you get The higher the temperature.

The grass is growing vigorously, the jujube thorn branches are sticking out, and the messy bugs are flying around on the road. They walked up the mountain road, and the people in front had to use sickles to open the way. Zheng Yi recalled the past few years while climbing the mountain. I just came to work in the town, and I followed Du Chunhai to take measurements on the mountain during the dog days. On the way back, I caught five or six blood-sucking ticks on my body. Fortunately, they were lying on the clothes and did not stick into the flesh. It is said that foreign countries That Avril Lavigne who sang got sick after being bitten by a tick. He had been afraid of it for a long time, and now he is no longer surprised by it.

Walking halfway, getting closer and closer to the fire point, Zheng Yi felt that he was about to be sunburned, and his body temperature must be at least [-] to [-] degrees. His breathing even became difficult, and he tried his best. , Let the firefighting team move forward in three ways, and then shout into the walkie-talkie: "Everyone has worked hard, this weather will be overcome."

This time, the fire was not big, mainly because there was no wind and the water content of the plants was relatively high, but the difficulty was that there were many fire points, high temperature, and lush vegetation, making it difficult for people to enter in many places, let alone firefighting.

"Leader, it's too hot. I feel like I'm being roasted in front of the fire." A fatter team member said while lighting the fire with a leather beater.

Another said: "It's just right, and we have suckling pig."

"Who the hell is so wicked, set fire to this day."

Zheng Yi listened to them being quite optimistic and joking on the walkie-talkie, and finally felt a little comforted in his heart.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. After the rescue is over, I will go down and buy popsicles for you to eat." Li Dawei said.

The progress was still relatively slow. Zheng Yi looked at his watch. After an hour, the fire was only half-extinguished. He couldn't find a shady place to stay, so he could only stay in the sun with everyone. After drinking mineral water and ice cream, the effort was divided up in a short while, and the people who had a little bit of coolness seemed to work harder.
