Turn the cocoon into a butterfly

Chapter 1 Misfortune Comes From Heaven
On September [-], [-], in the small northern city of Meilanjiang.

Early autumn is the best season for Meilanjiang.

The weather turned a little cold in the morning and evening, and in the morning, the sky was clear and blue, and the fashionable young people were still wearing summer clothes, while the elderly middle-aged people wore a pair of thin underwear over their thin underwear. coat.

Spring in the north is long overdue, but autumn breaks in silently. Just after September, the breeze picks up suddenly, and scattered dead leaves on the trees lose their moisture, falling down and circling above the heads of passers-by.

"Lulu Xiaozhu" officially opened at noon today.

"Lulu Xiaozhu" is an independent small second floor, which does not occupy a large area, but is also surrounded by winding corridors and rocks.

The second floor also attracts trickling streams, converging into a pool of clear water, green radish and vines are dripping, and koi in the water are like swimming rubies leisurely.

The owner of the hotel, Cheng Weize, wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He is 1.8 meters five tall, with three-dimensional and handsome features, and a tall and straight figure.

Cheng Weize had just celebrated his 30th birthday a few days ago. He said that at the age of thirty, he must make progress this year.

He was dressed in a beige suit with a light blue tie around the collar, and he shook hands with relatives and friends who entered the hotel with a smile and said hello.

His wife, Sang Xiaoyu, is also smiling like a flower. The husband and wife stand beside him. Sang Xiaoyu likes to turn herself into a subordinate status, and always likes to retreat behind her husband. Human-like blurred and warm light.

Sang Xiaoyu is 27 years old this year, and she is already the mother of a four-year-old child, but her eyebrows and eyes are still as clear as a girl's.

She was dressed in a cheongsam with her hair pulled up high, and she could also see that she had dancing skills. She also smiled and greeted all the people present warmly.

At 58:[-], the opening ceremony officially began, with firecrackers blasting and drum music shaking the sky, and hundreds of people gathered in front of the gate to watch the excitement.

A string of colorful balloons soared into the sky, and the sky suddenly became colorful.

Many luxury cars were parked in the open space in front of the door. Most of the people who got out of these cars were friends and relatives of the couple, and there were also friends of friends.

Cheng Weize stepped forward to shake hands with them one by one with a pleasant smile.

These people also did not come empty-handed, most of them are potential future customers of the hotel.Today, they also brought two large flower baskets symbolically, and some gave red envelopes directly.

There are two full rows of flower baskets at the door, and a couplet is written on the left and right of the hotel door:
Shanglian: There are many friends laughing like clouds
Second couplet: Quan Qingyue Reflecting Candlelight Cup
Horizontal batch: Good luck for the opening

Almost all the guests' ribbons were written with congratulations on the opening.

The speech at the ceremony was very brief. Cheng Weize solemnly introduced and thanked several guests. After the greetings, he said frankly: "Everyone who came today, except for relatives and friends, are good friends. They are all dear relatives and friends of Mr. Cheng, so I won't gossip. In a word: eat well and drink well.”

Sang Xiaoyu kindly gave each guest a VIP card to show her sincerity.

Cheng Weize gave an order, and the kitchen took on the leading role.

Suddenly, a tall and beautiful waitress in a bright red cheongsam shuttled among the tables in the hall.

People seem to be attending a wedding, beaming.

People gathered in the private rooms on the second floor.Here the flowers are flourishing, the willows are green, especially the children brought by relatives, laughing and running, the scene is very lively.

The five-year-old Cheng Ziqiao, Cheng Weize and Sang Xiaoyu's lovely son, was also wandering around the hotel, and the lobby was bustling and harmonious.

In more than ten minutes, the four main courses were ready.

They are rampant crabs, flowering rich shrimps, chicken stewed with wild mushrooms and September sea bass.

People began to move their chopsticks, and the air was filled with fragrance.

The hotel was buzzing with people and laughter, and all the guests were amazed by the luxurious and magnificent service.

Every private room on the second floor is full of noise and bustle, full of diners, and a booming business scene.

Cheng Weize kept going back and forth between each room and each table. He was very satisfied with everything today, and people also complimented Boss Cheng, calling Cheng Weize elated.

The well-trained waiters also showed first-class service standards. They leaned forward slightly when speaking, and smiled sweetly before each sentence. After answering, they had to bow professionally and make a "please" gesture .

Everything is almost perfect.

The guests also sent praises to Cheng Weize's ears from time to time, saying that he is worthy of being a genius. In a few years, a small shop has become prosperous, and now it is a first-class high-end hotel.

Cheng Weize politely toasted each table, humbly saying that it all depends on everyone's support.

His wife, Sang Xiaoyu, like Cheng Weize, entertained guests from all walks of life enthusiastically, with joy in his eyes.

Sang Xiaoyu didn't speak from the beginning to the end, she cast her eyes on her polite husband from time to time, her eyes were full of admiration and admiration.

Her tall figure and demeanor are calm and elegant.The beautiful cheongsam made her look elegant and radiant.

Everything is so perfect and harmonious.

There was a loud bang, and everyone was shocked, and some people yelled that it was not good.

People panicked immediately, and no one upstairs knew what happened.

When tragedy strikes, there is no warning.

The sound came from the first floor.

Because it is a trial operation, there are no customers in the lobby on the first floor.

A loud noise broke the commotion of everyone.

The opening time is 58:[-], and the accident time is [-]:[-]...

The back kitchen is on the first floor. After the main dishes are served, there are only some stir-fries left.Cheng Weize kept coming to the back kitchen to urge to hurry up, it's not good to keep the guests waiting for a long time.

The chef in charge, Li Yiguo, was a little anxious.

In desperation, he took out a gas tank privately and connected it to the stove.

He saw that it was still not enough, so he ordered another stove.

The kitchen was already steaming and overcrowded, and someone even reminded him, isn't it a bit dangerous?

He said we must pay attention to safety.

But when I get busy, these are all forgotten.

When the back kitchen staff were rushing to and from each other, I didn't know who seemed to be going back and forth. They tripped, kicked on the pipeline, and threw the dishes in their hands on the ground.

As for how the explosion started, no one knows.

It only took three or two seconds for the incident to happen suddenly.

Li Yiguo was the first to bear the brunt. He was rushed out of the back kitchen by a wave of heat. The faces of the two side dish assistants were covered in blood, and it was unclear where they were injured.

All of a sudden, the people on the first floor were crying and howling, bumping into walls like headless chickens.

Everyone on the second floor felt the vibration of the floor, and then a gust of air flowed up from the first floor wrapped in thick smoke, and the fire followed.

People panicked all of a sudden, cups and plates were trampled under their feet in an instant, adults yelled and children cried in a mess.

A guest near the window thought there was an earthquake, and broke out of the window in a hurry, causing fractures.Driven by him, two more people who didn't know the truth jumped down with him...

Cheng Weize was still toasting when the accident happened, he instinctively felt bad, so he rushed down the stairs with thick smoke.

When he reached the first floor, he was stunned by the sight in front of him... The smoke was so thick that he couldn't see anything, but he could clearly hear the shouts and wailing behind the smoke.

His mind went blank, knowing that it was all over, the restaurant was filled with crying, and the horrible and bloody scene frightened the waiters into ashes...

110 police cars, 119 fire engines, and 120 ambulances rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.The TV station also dispatched a reporting vehicle... The onlookers surrounded the scene of the accident like a tidal wave.

The timely arrival of fire trucks prevented the situation from expanding.

The TV station reported that night: there was no death toll.Five people were seriously injured and seven people were slightly injured. The dining room on the first floor was seriously damaged, and all the glass on the second floor was shattered.

Because there were three people who were injured by the glass, even the passers-by who were walking outside were not spared. Three people who jumped from the second floor hit one person...

The glass of the flower shop on the left is all shattered and the pharmacy on the right.

Cheng Weize rushed to the hospital immediately. After learning that his children and family members were safe, he felt at ease. Fortunately, all the seriously injured people were rescued and their lives were not in danger.The heaviest Li Yiguo suffered burns covering 70.00% of his body, and his face was ruined.

The other two chefs suffered burns on their faces. One was pierced by a splinter in his left rib, and the other was hit by a frying pan and then fainted from fright.

The doctor made a rough calculation, such as rescue expenses, treatment expenses, severe illness expenses, surgical skin grafting...not including temporary expenses.

Cheng Weize's mind went blank at this moment, and he stared blankly at the doctor.

He thought the doctor spoke Chinese that he could not understand at all.

The doctor reported string after string of numbers, and Cheng Weize felt like he was in Arabia. He didn't understand why he only said numbers but not words?

When the doctor reminded him that he would have to pay a rescue fee of 10 yuan immediately, he woke up from the birdsong like a dream.

The doctor said: "This little money is the rescue money. In less than a week, it will cost another 30 to [-] yuan."

He nodded frequently, and said in a crying voice: "I beg you, no matter what, we must rescue people. Don't let anyone die. I will raise funds immediately."

After Cheng Weize came out of the hospital, he stood on the street in the afternoon, his head seemed to be filled with lead, and his legs weighed a thousand pounds.

Back to before liberation overnight.

He has worked hard for so many years, he has been working hard for nearly ten years from a small restaurant, and now...

He didn't dare to settle accounts.The medical part alone costs at least 50 yuan, and the recovery in the later stage is a bad debt without a head.He rented the hotel with more than 20 yuan, and the one-year rent has already been paid in full.

The first floor was blown up beyond recognition, and the maintenance part couldn't get down without a dozen or 20.How much did he invest from planning to opening?

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and the loan in the bank weighed him down even more.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Sang Xiaoyu called, and she said in a crying voice, "Husband, where are you? I'm dying of anxiety. I managed to make up [-] yuan and hand it over to the hospital. You hurry home

This little money is not enough for anything, let's discuss together what to do next! "

Sang Xiaoyu then really started crying.

Cheng Weize was confused.

How to do?
All of a sudden, he was very clear that something he couldn't see was stealing away the family property that the couple had created over the years "with lightning speed".

In the past ten years, it was the silver that they worked hard to save like ants moving houses and birds building nests, and they disappeared in an instant.

Even if he has great ability, he can't raise the astronomical debt.He put down his wife's phone and walked on the sunny street in a daze.

At this time, the siren sounded, and he gave a shriek. He would go to jail if he didn't pay the money... The money, he did a rough calculation, and it was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away, and the prison... He instinctively ran to a place The secluded place also soothes the heart that has nowhere to rest.

But his heart was empty, as if he was in a rough sea, except for the strong wind and heavy rain, there was no straw that could save his life.

After a full 5 minutes, Cheng Weize finally regained his consciousness from the extreme terror. How much he wished that all this was just a nightmare, but the incessantly barking Big Brother kept ringing, a kind of sound that had never happened before. The fear of the past overflowed my heart, converging into the despair of despair.

He knew he was done.

It was noon at this time, and there was no sound in the empty alley. He didn't know where he was going. A gust of wind blew towards his mushy head. desolate.

Everyone is at this moment, no longer knowing where Cheng Weize is going.Cheng Weize has never been heard from since.He disappeared and fled.

Sang Xiaoyu's sky collapsed.
