Chapter 33 Miss, I'm Scared!
"There is still about two kilometers away along this mountain road." One of them answered.
Looking at breathless Joy who was sitting on the ground, Amy thought for a moment and said, "It's too late for your work if you accompany with us to move at such a slow speed. Countless casualties are waiting for the medical materials in your hands. You can go first, and we'll arrive soon."
The two medical staff were indeed rushing to leave, so they did not insist on staying and waited for them, and told them to be careful on the way, and then strode meteor forward, soon disappearing without a trace.
The two withdrew their sight. Joy pulled Amy's arm, motioning for her to have a rest, and then hurry up on their way.
Sitting next to Joy, Amy took off her backpack, took out a bottle of water, opened the cap and handed it to Joy.
Joy was already very thirsty, but she didn't bring water with her to ease the burden on her. The most important thing was that she didn't know how long it would take, otherwise she would bring a bottle of water with her.
Instead of pretending to refuse, Joy took it with a smile. She raised her head and drank most of it. Then she gave it to Amy with satisfaction, but Amy didn't drink it but tightened the bottle and put it back in her backpack.
"Don't you drink?" Joy asked in confusion with her round eyes wide open.
"I'm not thirsty." After saying that, Amy closed her eyes and leaned against a tree behind her.
In fact, it was not that Amy was not thirsty, but she only brought a bottle of water in her bag. If she drank it up, there would be no water. There were still two kilometers away, and the weather was so hot. She was worried that Joy couldn't hold on later, so she left it for Joy in case of need.
Seeing that Amy had closed her eyes to rest, Joy didn't think too much.
After resting for about fifteen minutes, the two of them set out. After walking along the mountain road for thirty minutes, they finally arrived at the heavily damaged area of QY County.
The rescue workers were busy on the ruins. Every few minutes, several injured people were rescued from the ruins, and then a lifeguard carried a stretcher and ran to the injured. Regardless of the resistance under their feet, they quickly ran to the injured, gently put the moaning injured on the stretcher, and then carried the injured to the ambulance for emergency treatment.
Such a cruel but loving scene made the two no longer care about their exhaustion. They hurriedly found the camera and joined the rescue team. They used the camera to record the most touching scene for them. From afar, there were two petite figures shuttling through the ruins, which looked very brave.
"I found a child here." Someone shouted. The rescuers nearby put down their belongings and ran towards the man.
Hearing that, Joy put down the camera in her hand and ran over too. When she approached, she saw that it was a child about seven or eight years old. His lower part of his body was pressed under a broken stone and couldn't move. Perhaps it was because of the pain, the child cried very bitterly. Hearing this, Joy's heart ached.
The rescuers wanted to move the heavy stones on the child away, only in this way could they pull him out of the stones.
But time passed, and the child was still not saved. When the rescue was carried out, moving the stones would affect the child's wound, so the child was so painful that he resisted the touch of the rescuers with his hands. The rescue work was forced to be suspended.
"If the child doesn't cooperate, we can't continue. If we force to continue, his legs are likely to........." A rescuer stood up at a loss and shook his head with a sigh.
Hearing this, Joy pushed away the crowd and walked up to the child. She lowered her body, reached out her hand and gently touched his head, comforting him softly, "Don't cry. If you cry, you won't be a brave man. I know you hurt, but if you don't cooperate with other uncles to save you, you will be more painful."
Seeing that he stopped crying, Joy smiled and continued to comfort him, "You have to be strong. Your parents are still waiting for you. Can you agree other uncles to move the stones on your body away first?" Perhaps speaking of his parents reminded him of his missing for his parents. Tears appeared in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and nodded to Joy.
Joy smiled with relief. When she was about to stand up, her hand was grabbed. She looked down and the child looked at her pleadingly. "Miss, can you stay with me? I'm scared."
Joy froze. After all he still was a child. It was not easy for him to have the courage to face such a situation. Joy thought that if she was pressed by stones at this moment, she could not calmly face the following pain.
But Joy was not a search and rescue personnel. She was only responsible for reporting, and she had no right to decide whether she could stay or not.
Joy looked up at the rescuers with expectation, hoping that they could let her stay.
In the end, for the sake of the child, they wanted to ease the child's scary. The rescuers agreed to let her accompany the child, but it was much more difficult for the rescue work. They not only had to save the child, but also had to pay attention to the big stone under Joy's feet at any time.
Ten minutes had passed, and twenty minutes had passed..... The rescue work was still going on, and Joy was still holding the child's hand, seeing that the child was so painful that he almost fainted but he gritted his teeth to struggle up.
Joy held the other hand tightly and didn't know that her nails pierced into her flesh.
The scene in front of her shocked her. She didn't know how great a person's potential was. She only knew that the child's toughness at this moment shocked her.
Finally, the last stone on the child's body was removed, but the bloody scene in front of her made Joy almost was crazy. She shouted at the rescuers, "Where are the medical staff? Are they here? Who can save him?"
As soon as Joy finished speaking, the child completely fainted. He was put on the stretcher, and his little hand that had been holding Joy slowly loosened and slipped down.
Seeing the child being carried into the ambulance, Joy stood up and watched the car driving away motionlessly.
Amy didn't stay with Joy just now. Amy went to another rescue site, so she didn't see the scene. She ran from the direction behind Joy. Seeing that Joy stood still, she ran to Joy and patted Joy on the shoulder. "Joy, the situation there is even worse. Follow me."
After saying that, Amy went east, but after a few steps, she didn't hear the footsteps of Joy. She looked back and found that Joy was still standing there.
