Chapter 1497 Father and Son Soldiers
8 pm.
Nishizawa Town Primary School.
When Gu Chen led the team and sent the three old people to the shore, everyone stopped searching and stayed in the small town of Xize to rest for a while.
At this time, Police Officer Wang also rushed to Xize Town Primary School with other personnel, and all the Furong branch rescue teams assembled at this moment.
On the other side, many blue sky rescue teams, fire rescue teams, and some armed police soldiers who participated in the rescue also returned to the only assembly point in Xize Town one after another.
At this moment, the sky was lightly raining, and the wind gradually subsided.
However, because Caesar Town is in a state of power outage, a large number of people need to be transferred, so there is still an endless stream of heavy trucks going to and from Caesar Town and the outside world.
"The supplies are here again, please help unload the truck." There was a yell from nowhere, and with the help of the light of the heavy truck, many rescuers, just lying on the ground for a while, stood up again and went directly to the vehicle delivering the supplies. go.
Everyone spontaneously stood in a row to form a human-shaped conveyor belt.
Due to the large number of people stranded in Caesar Elementary School, even if it is necessary to safely transfer all the people outside, it is not an easy task.
According to the meaning of the headquarters, Nishizawa Primary School is temporarily used as a temporary resettlement site for the temporary resettlement of local residents.
At the same time, a large amount of materials were transported to provide material support for the resettlement site in Xize Town.
Several diesel generators are the source of electricity here.
But even so, the environment is quite bad.
All heavy trucks transporting materials must transport a group of people out after unloading the materials.
"It's hard work, drink some water and eat something."
Not far away, a man was distributing food supplies to many rescuers.
But Gu Chen, who has master-level observation skills, quickly recognized that it was his father Gu Baichuan's voice.
When he realized all this, Gu Chen quickly stood up, took two steps towards the man, and then called out, "Dad? Why are you here?"
"Son?" Gu Baichuan, who was carrying all kinds of supplies, couldn't help being stunned the moment he saw his son Gu Chen.
The father and son looked at each other, feeling a little surprised.
Gu Baichuan punched Gu Chen's left shoulder with a fist, and said with a complaining face: "You kid, you lied to me. Just now you sent me a text message saying that you have been staying at the Furong branch, and you let me rest assured. Don't worry about your safety, you lied to me when you co-authored it? Just ran to Xize Town to rescue and rescue the disaster?"
"Isn't this because you're worried?" Feeling that his "lie" had been exposed, Gu Chen also scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
But looking back, Gu Chen also looked puzzled: "No, Dad, didn't you also tell me in your text message that you stayed at home to look after the store? Then why did you appear here?"
"me……"
Feeling that his son turned against the general, Gu Baichuan was a little embarrassed.
But looking at his son's suspicious eyes, he didn't hold back, he laughed and said, "Okay, everyone, stop pretending, I'm here as a volunteer."
"I saw news reports that Nishizawa Town was severely affected by the disaster, and supplies became a little short."
"So I didn't think too much about it, and immediately called a truck to come over and free up some supplies from our warehouse to help solve the shortage of supplies here."
"So the supplies in this truck are all donated by our family?" Gu Chen was also surprised.
Gu Baichuan nodded and admitted with a smile: "That's right, this entire truckload of supplies is a free donation from our family."
"Then why don't you put up a banner or something? At least it's good to advertise yourself." A fire brigade commander couldn't help but sighed while eating the food and water sent by Gu Baichuan.
Gu Baichuan grinned: "I'm here to support the disaster-stricken area of Xize Town, and I'm here as a volunteer. I didn't think too much about it, I just wanted to deliver the supplies as soon as possible. The banners and the like are too time-consuming."
Turning his head to look behind him, he saw a fat middle-aged man. Gu Baichuan directly brought the fat man to his side, and introduced to everyone:
"This driver, when he heard that I called the car to donate supplies to Xize Town, he didn't even ask me for the fare, and just helped to load the supplies."
"Thank you, thank you all." Seeing this, another armed police major also stepped forward, shook hands with Gu Baichuan and the driver master, and said:
"If it weren't for you risking your life to send so many supplies here in time, it is estimated that the average person here tonight would not even have enough for a bottle of water."
"Your delivery of this cart of supplies has solved our urgent need."
"Yes." Eating the baguette in his hand, another leader of the Blue Sky Rescue Team also said gratefully:
"We have worked hard all day today, but there is a serious shortage of drinking water. The team members have given food and water to the affected people. Many people have not drank a sip of water since morning. Your delivery of supplies is too timely. .”
"Yes, thank you for your kindness, what do you do? We can also help you promote it."
"You have to leave a name for doing good deeds, right? What's your name, big brother?"
……
In an instant, all the rescue team members who received food and water immediately surrounded Gu Baichuan and the fat driver, and wanted to express their gratitude.
Gu Baichuan smiled and said, "I'm just an ordinary citizen of Jiangnan City. I have done what I should do. If one side is in trouble, all sides support it. We are all descendants of Yan and Huang, so we should help each other."
"Well said." At this time, Lu Weiwei saw that it was Gu Chen's father, and immediately came over to say hello: "Uncle Gu, you really solved everyone's urgent needs, you are indeed Gu Chen's father .”
"Yes." Upon seeing this, Police Officer Wang stepped forward and said with a smile: "My son is here to participate in disaster relief, and my father also brought relief supplies. I am here as a volunteer. Thank you for your dedication."
After the words fell, Police Officer Wang saluted and thanked Gu Baichuan.
In an instant, all the police officers, armed police soldiers, fire rescue team soldiers, and blue sky rescue team soldiers followed Officer Wang's movements and saluted Gu Baichuan in unison.
This made Gu Baichuan a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly pressed his hands together and smiled teasingly: "Everyone, don't do this, I'm here to be a volunteer. You are so polite, it makes me feel embarrassed."
"Being a good person is afraid of being exposed." Bai Xiaolan and photographer Wu Jun appeared out of nowhere and came directly to the crowd.
"Uncle Gu, you have done good deeds, delivered a truck full of supplies, and didn't put up a banner. This is really a big loss for you."
"Even if you don't put up a banner, we still have to help you publicize it. Do you think that's the truth?"
After Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Wu Jun, the photographer at the other end, also turned on the camera.
Seeing that the person who came was from a TV station, Gu Baichuan was even more embarrassed now. He could only smile smirkly at the camera and said: "We Chinese have always had a tradition of support from all sides when we are in trouble. I am just a member of ordinary citizens."
"Now our homeland has been severely damaged due to the severe typhoon weather. As a member of Jiangnan City, we should stand up and contribute our own strength."
Glancing at Gu Chen, he saw Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei covering their mouths and laughing.
Gu Baichuan was also embarrassed, and continued to organize his words to reply: "The situation in Xize Town is still very serious. I asked just now and found that there is still a shortage of supplies here."
"So I'm here, through Jiangnan TV Station, to make an appeal that a lot of daily necessities are needed here, including women's and children's necessities."
"Because I run a grocery store, most of the deliveries are food and water, but that doesn't solve many of the problems here."
After a pause, Gu Baichuan, who looked nervous, also continued: "So, I urge everyone to pay more attention to Xize Town."
"And I heard that there is a lot of pressure on the Xizai Reservoir, and the flood is still being released. A large number of people need to be transferred, especially some construction vehicles. Here, I hope everyone can help..."
Gu Baichuan was eloquent, but he had never seen so many people watching him, so he seemed a little nervous when he spoke.
But Gu Baichuan basically gave an overview of the situation in Xize Town, so that Bai Xiaolan wanted to continue interviewing other rescue team leaders.
But now it seems that Gu Baichuan has already answered everything he should say.
"Okay, thank you again for Mr. Gu's emotional donation, and thank you for your support to the disaster area in Xize Town, thank you."
At the end of the interview, Bai Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Unexpectedly, Uncle Gu can speak so well."
"Haha, I'm so nervous, I'm sorry." Gu Baichuan scratched the back of his head, took the supplies from the fat driver, distributed the bread and water to Bai Xiaolan and Wu Jun, and said involuntarily:
"You probably haven't eaten much, so take it first, and let's talk when you are full."
"Thank you, Uncle Gu." Bai Xiaolan happily took the food and water from Gu Baichuan, and joined everyone, sitting on the steps of Xizawa Primary School, enjoying a rare dinner for a short time.
At this time, Gu Chen found that the middle-aged man who had rescued from the other side of the river during the day was also sitting there enjoying dinner at the moment, so he walked up to him and sat down next to the man.
The middle-aged man turned his head to look at Gu Chen. He was stunned for a moment, then recognized Gu Chen, and grinned: "Comrade policeman, it's you? I really want to thank you for saving me from my home today."
"It should be." Gu Chen took a bite of the bun and asked curiously, "By the way, we searched around the village for a long time today, but we didn't find that old man. I'm very worried about his safety now."
"Really?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but say: "I don't know that old man very well. The old man usually walks alone, and his two sons are out of town."
"When there is a holiday, I will come back once during the New Year. Usually, there is no one in sight."
"Aren't you from the same village? How can you be unfamiliar?"
At the same time that Gu Chen was communicating with the man, Lu Weiwei also walked over from another place and asked curiously.
The man chuckled and said, "Actually, I'm not from this village."
"Aren't you from this village?" Lu Weiwei widened her eyes and asked, "Then why are you there?"
"My wife is from this village." The middle-aged man continued.
Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, and said a little angrily: "Can you speak completely? There is no sentence here."
"Haha." The man also gave a wry smile, and then took a sip of mineral water.
Gu Chen took the bread and pondered, and asked, "Then, is there anyone in your village who knows the old man a little bit better?"
"Well... maybe, but I'm not sure." The middle-aged man shook his head.
Lu Weiwei asked again: "What about your family? Where have they all gone? Why are you left alone at home?"
In fact, Lu Weiwei had always wanted to ask. After all, the Xizai Reservoir started to release floods, and the villagers were the first to be notified, and the evacuation was also the first to be organized.
But when everyone went to search, they found that the middle-aged man was staying at home alone, so Lu Weiwei felt very curious, and even wondered if the man was a resident of this village.
The middle-aged man looked up to the sky and smiled wryly: "I evacuated early. If my wife hadn't said that there are still many valuables in the house that need to be moved, if the house is washed away by the flood, there would be nothing left."
"So I couldn't help it. The water didn't rise that fast at the time."
Pointing to the position of his waist: "It's right here, the water can overflow the waist, I crossed the bridge, and went back home directly, and tidied up all the things my wife wanted to bring."
"But at that time, I didn't have any sense of time. When I went out again, I found that the flood had already overflowed my chest."
"If we evacuate with these big and small bags again, maybe everyone will be washed away, and the bridge when we came over was also submerged by the flood at that time, which is very dangerous."
Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged man said helplessly, "I have no choice, so I had to hide at home and see if the rescue team will come the next day."
"If there is, follow the rescue team, and then I will meet you."
"It's a good thing you met us, otherwise you would have been really unlucky." Seeing the middle-aged man being so honest, Lu Weiwei also complained.
But Gu Chen has been thinking about the whereabouts of the old man.
You know, when everyone went to the village to start the search mission, they all saw an old man in a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat sitting on the roof.
But in the blink of an eye, the old man disappeared, and there was no one inside or outside the house, which surprised Gu Chen.
But the surrounding waters were searched several times, but no trace of the old man was found.
Therefore, Gu Chen couldn't let it go.
Standing up, Gu Chen directly asked the local residents behind him, "Do any of you live on the other side of the river?"
The voice fell, and soon there was a weak response.
A middle-aged woman with a child raised her hand and responded directly: "Comrade police, my family lives in the village on the other side of the river."
"Are you from the village?" Gu Chen stood up and hurried towards the woman.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also followed closely.
The middle-aged woman hugged her child, and nodded silently in response: "Yes, I am from the village, what's the matter, comrade policeman?"
"That's great." Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and also sat sideways beside the woman, and hurriedly asked: "There is an old house over there, near the river."
Due to the dark sky, Gu Chen could only point out a general direction.
The middle-aged woman nodded silently: "I know, I know what you are talking about, what's wrong?"
"There's an old man living there, are you familiar with him?" Lu Weiwei hurriedly added.
The middle-aged woman grinned: "That old man? I know him well, from the same village."
"That's great." Gu Chen paused for a moment before continuing: "Today we were on the roof of his house and found that old man wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat sitting there."
"But when we got there, we found that the old man had disappeared. We searched inside and outside the house several times, but there was still no whereabouts."
"We now suspect that he was washed away by the flood, but we just don't know how good is his water quality? Is there any possibility of self-help?"
"Ah? Is that so?" Hearing Gu Chen's words, the middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, and said weakly:
"I remember that old man is very good at swimming. Many people in the village learned to swim from him."
"And some swimming clubs in the city even wanted to invite him to be a security officer, but he likes to be quiet, so he didn't go."
"You said he can swim?" Upon hearing the woman's words, Lu Weiwei widened her eyes and said, "Then if he falls into the water, do you think he can survive?"
"Are you kidding?" The middle-aged woman laughed and said, "Didn't I say that he is good at water, if he falls into the water, he should be able to save himself, after all, he can swim."
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Gu Chen beside her.
And Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
According to the middle-aged woman, the old man is very good at water, so once he falls into the water, he should be able to save himself.
But what Gu Chen didn't quite understand was, why didn't he hear the old man's movement even though everyone was nearby at that time?
At that time, everyone approached slowly in kayaks, and the old man sitting on the roof must have seen it.
But why didn't he take the initiative to say hello to the rescue team, but disappeared without a sound?
From Gu Chen's point of view, this is very strange, even somewhat unreasonable.
But what if it is the character of the old man?
Thinking of this, Gu Chen continued to ask: "Then what is the character of this old man? Is he a very dull person?"
"No." The middle-aged woman smiled lightly and said, "He is very nice, very enthusiastic, and his personality... is also very cheerful, and he likes to communicate with people."
"Anyway, I grew up in the village. When I was a child, I really hated him complaining about me. I felt that his mouth was like a Gatling gun. Once he opened the chatter box, he couldn't stop at all."
"What about getting along with people?" Gu Chen asked again.
"It's also very good, anyway, it's very enthusiastic..."
The middle-aged woman still explained to Gu Chen everything she knew.
At this moment, Gu Chen was also dumbfounded.
How could such an old man with a cheerful personality and good water skills suddenly disappear?
If it disappears, where will it go?
Moreover, the water flow at that time was actually not turbulent, and the old man could completely connect with the rescue team.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen looked towards the dark village again, feeling an ominous premonition welling up in his heart.

Nishizawa Town Primary School.
When Gu Chen led the team and sent the three old people to the shore, everyone stopped searching and stayed in the small town of Xize to rest for a while.
At this time, Police Officer Wang also rushed to Xize Town Primary School with other personnel, and all the Furong branch rescue teams assembled at this moment.
On the other side, many blue sky rescue teams, fire rescue teams, and some armed police soldiers who participated in the rescue also returned to the only assembly point in Xize Town one after another.
At this moment, the sky was lightly raining, and the wind gradually subsided.
However, because Caesar Town is in a state of power outage, a large number of people need to be transferred, so there is still an endless stream of heavy trucks going to and from Caesar Town and the outside world.
"The supplies are here again, please help unload the truck." There was a yell from nowhere, and with the help of the light of the heavy truck, many rescuers, just lying on the ground for a while, stood up again and went directly to the vehicle delivering the supplies. go.
Everyone spontaneously stood in a row to form a human-shaped conveyor belt.
Due to the large number of people stranded in Caesar Elementary School, even if it is necessary to safely transfer all the people outside, it is not an easy task.
According to the meaning of the headquarters, Nishizawa Primary School is temporarily used as a temporary resettlement site for the temporary resettlement of local residents.
At the same time, a large amount of materials were transported to provide material support for the resettlement site in Xize Town.
Several diesel generators are the source of electricity here.

After Bai Xiaolan finished speaking, Wu Jun, the photographer at the other end, also turned on the camera.
Seeing that the person who came was from a TV station, Gu Baichuan was even more embarrassed now. He could only smile smirkly at the camera and said: "We Chinese have always had a tradition of support from all sides when we are in trouble. I am just a member of ordinary citizens."
"Now our homeland has been severely damaged due to the severe typhoon weather. As a member of Jiangnan City, we should stand up and contribute our own strength."
Glancing at Gu Chen, he saw Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei covering their mouths and laughing.

"We now suspect that he was washed away by the flood, but we just don't know how good is his water quality? Is there any possibility of self-help?"
"Ah? Is that so?" Hearing Gu Chen's words, the middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, and said weakly:
"I remember that old man is very good at swimming. Many people in the village learned to swim from him."
"And some swimming clubs in the city even wanted to invite him to be a security officer, but he likes to be quiet, so he didn't go."
"You said he can swim?" Upon hearing the woman's words, Lu Weiwei widened her eyes and said, "Then if he falls into the water, do you think he can survive?"
"Are you kidding?" The middle-aged woman laughed and said, "Didn't I say that he is good at water, if he falls into the water, he should be able to save himself, after all, he can swim."
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Gu Chen beside her.
And Gu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
According to the middle-aged woman, the old man is very good at water, so once he falls into the water, he should be able to save himself.
But what Gu Chen didn't quite understand was, why didn't he hear the old man's movement even though everyone was nearby at that time?
At that time, everyone approached slowly in kayaks, and the old man sitting on the roof must have seen it.
But why didn't he take the initiative to say hello to the rescue team, but disappeared without a sound?
From Gu Chen's point of view, this is very strange, even somewhat unreasonable.
But what if it is the character of the old man?
Thinking of this, Gu Chen continued to ask: "Then what is the character of this old man? Is he a very dull person?"
"No." The middle-aged woman smiled lightly and said, "He is very nice, very enthusiastic, and his personality... is also very cheerful, and he likes to communicate with people."
"Anyway, I grew up in the village. When I was a child, I really hated him complaining about me. I felt that his mouth was like a Gatling gun. Once he opened the chatter box, he couldn't stop at all."
"What about getting along with people?" Gu Chen asked again.
"It's also very good, anyway, it's very enthusiastic..."
The middle-aged woman still explained to Gu Chen everything she knew.
At this moment, Gu Chen was also dumbfounded.
How could such an old man with a cheerful personality and good water skills suddenly disappear?
If it disappears, where will it go?
Moreover, the water flow at that time was actually not turbulent, and the old man could completely connect with the rescue team.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen looked towards the dark village again, feeling an ominous premonition welling up in his heart.
