Chapter 131: Wait For Me (1)
Gasoline was poured around the surroundings of the warehouse. The flame was brought to life, rapiding spreading and engulfing everything in its way.
Zhou Xiaoxiao swiftly untied Chen Weipan and the other police officers.
The elite officers were quite competent. They quickly held down Juan Liu.
They worked together to open up a window high up, forming a makeshift ladder with themselves. They helped one another and escaped the dangerous place.
Zhou Xiaoxiao left a deep impression within these officers’ minds during this operation.
They were secretly shocked. After all, the woman that Officer Chen brought appeared to be weak and beautiful. However, when she climbed the makeshift ladder, they saw her running up to the ladder and then agilely climbing up the five or six meters tall window with ease.
After that, she even hung upside down and pulled their injured colleagues up.
She was definitely not a normal person.
Officer Chen had quite the methods. It was unclear how he was able to borrow such a powerful attractive policewoman from the SWAT, but they had resolved this peril due to her.
Everyone was out of danger and they watched as the fire uncontrollably burned and engulfed the warehouse.
The terrible thing was that a small-scale private child care center was upstairs of the warehouse.
Right now, the thick smoke made its way up and blocked the exit to the staircase.
The preschool teachers noticed the fire and hurriedly opened the anti-theft safety door, throwing the children one by one down the window.
Many of the nearby residents gathered and started pulling bed sheets and cushions under to help catch the children.
Although it was the second floor, because the first floor was the warehouse which was seven meters high, the second floor was actually three floors high.
The children cried from the fright and they refused to cooperate. Even more, the exit was too tiny and there were too many people. The situation became extremely dangerous.
A teacher found a screw and wanted to unscrew the nut on the anti-theft window, but the nut was rusted and so, it was to no avail.
The passengers on the road grabbed Chen Weipan’s sleeves and exclaimed, “Officers, officers, please save them. Save the kids!”
Before Chen Weipan could say anything, he saw Zhou Xiaoxiao bending down and running up, stepping on the wall and climbing up like a gecko. She reached over and grabbed the railing, rolling over to the anti-theft window of the child care center.
She grabbed a little boy’s collar, but the boy was scared and started screaming, holding onto the exit and refusing to let go.
He even blocked the other people from coming out.
Zhou Xiaoxiao tugged him and tossed him down. The audience downstairs caught him.
Then, Zhou Xiaoxiao turned and crawled into the safety tunnel.
“Quick, call the firefighters! Let’s go as well!” Chen Weipan ordered his colleagues.
He was very anxious in his heart.
The intensity of the fire skyrocketed and the thick smoke had already spilled out of the child care center’s window.
Zhou Xiaoxiao grabbed the screw from the teacher’s hand and unscrewed the nut in three turns.
She then kicked the banister of the anti-theft window downstairs.
The teachers worked together and grabbed the children, tossing them down.
Large quantities of thick smoke rushed into the second floor and the cushions in the classroom were all on fire.
The last of the children were down.
The teachers clenched their teeth and closed their eyes, jumping down.
“Xiaoxiao, quickly come down!” Chen Weipan hollered from downstairs.
Zhou Xiaoxiao stood by the window. She inspected the classroom one last time to see if she missed any children when she suddenly saw a very magical scene.
There was a strange golden crack swaying clearly in the flame.
By the strangely bright light, there seemed to be a vertical eye gradually opening its eye.
